Last week I kicked off my look at the first assortment of Cosmic Legions with Olek Thygar and I mentioned that I was shorted one figure in my shipment. Well, T4H customer service got on that pretty damn quick and sent out the missing figure. So, let’s bump him to the head of the line and check out Kraggnar!
Kraggnar is the second biggest figure in this assortment, so I was pretty excited to get him open and take a look. The packaging is the same style of window box we saw last time. You get a blurb about this series on the right side panel and a little bit about Kraggnar on the left, and it’s all collector friendly. Hailing from the planet Quarvum, Kraggnar is described as a builder and architect, and now a prisoner of Hvalkatar Prison. He has now been tossed into the gladiatorial battles in the Cell Block known as GraveRing.
And he is indeed a big boy. If you’re familiar with the Mythic Legions line, than this fella would qualify as an Ogre Class, so he outclasses the regular figures in both heft and height. Like Olek, Kraggnar has a very scaly reptilian-like body, which I’m sure will be put to dual purpose in Mythic Legions if it hasn’t been revealed already. Indeed, even the ports in the back where his second set of arms plug in will likely be used for wing inserts. Also like Olek, I am in love with the vibrant shades of color used on the skin here. In this case, it’s orange and it goes from light on his chest to darker as it gets to the extremities, where it becomes very deep and just pops beautifully. The scales feature an array of both deep and softer cuts and everything about this guy’s anatomy just looks superb.
Kraggnar sports a set of futuristic gladiatorial armor, which includes heavy forearm cuffs on all four of his arms, an x-shaped harness with a light blue stone in the middle, a belt with a furry loin cloth, and grieves on his lower legs. All of these pieces are colored in a rich metallic silver and feature some sculpted weathering. The arm cuffs and chest harness are all removable, while the belt and grieves are sculpted as part of the body. I also really dig the loops on the arm cuffs and the big ring on his back, suggesting that the guards have to chain this beast up every now and then.
You get two heads included with Kraggnar and while they are both excellent sculpts, the variation here is pretty minimal. The first head is a neutral expression, while the second has a slightly more prominent brow and gritted teeth, giving him a bit more fierce of an expression. The quality of both portraits is excellent with more of that lovely scaling to the skin. I really like his blue eyes, and there are some nasty looking gashes between them, which makes me wonder what creature scored such impressive hits on a combatant this imposing. I will likely keep the second head displayed on the figure nearly all the time, as I think it just has more personality.
There are no surprises here in the base articulation, although it’s worth pointing out that the second set of arms mirror the same articulation as the front set. You also get a pair of fists, and all six pairs of hands will work with either set of arms. The back arms stay put really well and the joints are capable of holding them up despite their considerable weight. Unfortunately the same can’t always be said for the hips and I have had this brute do the splits a few times because of the considerable weight of his upper body. But, he will stay upright if I don’t make the stance too wide.
If you happen to be adverse to your orange space ogres having two sets of arms, you can remove the rear set and insert the provided plugs to fill in the holes, but I can’t imagine why anyone would want to go this route.
Kraggnar comes with one weapon and it’s a giant space mace. I really love the design of this thing, as it almost looks like it’s just a repurposed component to some space ship or giant piece of machinery. The coils running through the center also suggest maybe it has some kind of electro-shock properties. The paint on it looks really good, and the weapon definitely suits the figure.
As the second biggest (and second most expensive) figure in this initial assortment, Kraggnar does not disappoint. He is an absolutely gorgeous figure both in terms of sculpt and coloring. He’s an imposing beast on the shelf, but so much fun to pick up and play with. I guess my only nitpick here is that I would have preferred TFH nix the back plugs and use that plastic for another set of hands or maybe another accessory, because there’s no way I’m ever going to display this brute without all four of his arms!

















Kraggnar is actually Pepe the prawn after going to Carrot top’s personal trainer, you can tell by his fingers.
