Yeah, get the TPB(s).
Other than the restricted shoulder articulation, yeah he's pretty neat.

No, $30-40 for each volumes. 3 volumes in total I believe... or 4 including the coda? cant be bothered to look, but I did buy TPB instead coz I couldnt be bothered to buy single issues.
Its in TPB already ITZTRU - so 1 volume contains about 3-5 issues in 1 volume.

I thought it was roughly 6 issues per TPB?
Anyway I think AHM is 3 TPBS + a collection of Spotlights in another volume. I think.

Really? It bugs me whenever I play with the toy as I can't make him swing his sword above his shoulderline easily... I gotta kinda pause and shift things about a bit. It may be fine for posing, but irritating for toy play. Earlier today I was making Drift fight Saesee Tiin* and MagnaGuard and when I swung his right arm (holding the sword) straight up the shoulder popped off. It was easy enough to pop back on, but it's the whole inconvenience of it.
If the shoulder pops off due to excessive force during play - fine, I can live with that. But I find that Drift's shoulders are just self-inhibited which makes it tricky to move the arms about. It's fine if Drift is fighting at mid to low level, but whenever he blocks a high level downward strike, or if he needs to raise his sword up to execute a high strike, then things get annoying.
Another nuisance is the lower legs which don't really lock in firmly, so the shins/feet easily fold out. Again it's quite annoying during toy play when he's striking dynamic stances, throwing out kicks and sliding about etc.
The sword handle is also a little bit loose which makes the sword spin around a bit when it's swung (which is frustrating because the edge of the blade doesn't keep facing the target after the end of the stroke). Still... better than having it too tight like ROTF Bludgeon's. And it's not too loose that it falls out all the time.

ITZTRU, I know that Kinokuniya in the city and King's Comics has these for less than $30 each. If you are a member of either shops, you get another 10% off the total.
Kino only has volume 3 left. King's would have the rest.
