Boys won’t play with pink toys! A statement often thrown around during the 80’s, so Witterquick sets out to buck the trend. The youngest, fastest, member of the Spectral Knights features red and pink colours, so go with his blonde hair and blue eyes. It’s a very unusual colour scheme, and it’s not the only odd thing about Witterquick’s design.
The figure features some random wires moulding into the back / sides of the figure, with no real explanation as to why. There is an exco-skeleton design around the shins of Witterquick, which I am only guess as being there to explain how Witterquick can run so fast without destroying his shins (which if why shows great thought into the character). Witterquick’s feet and legs have no real moulding detail to talk about. His arms are made up of circles with find on the outside of the forearm, used to help guide Witterquick when running at full pace. His helmet is designed to look aerodynamic, and looks a little like a cyclist helmet. The negative part of the design is that the eye hole is a little large, and high.
Witterquick has no shoulder pads at all, allowing complete 360 rotation, giving Witterquick the greatest of movement at the shoulder joint.
Witterquick’s boomerang has some nice detail sculpting into one side. The handles are a little wide which means that you stretch the hands grip when making the figure hold the weapon. His staff is pretty boring to look at, which what appears to be an ear like shape being the only real thing to give the staff shape.
Witterquick’s animal totem is that of the cheetah, sculpted in a traditional running mode. The sculpt works really well, both with the cheetah’s spots and due to the colour (the green is quiet close to yellow)
