The new cards match the look and colors of the previous Ben 10 incarnations. They are eye-catchingly colorful, appropriately sized, show off the figure well and include a nice cross-wave photo on the back. There's no personalization to the card, or any information about this particular alien to go by, so I'll just have to wait for the show to hit full-swing to see what Gravattack can do.
The figure itself has a great design. He's some kind of giant rock-like head with arms and legs. The Omnitrix symbol sits on his forehead, and he's got tons of sculpted rock-detail on his arms and legs. The figure feels hollow, but still seems sturdy enough to stand up to some rough play, which is what I would expect.
Gravattack sports a fantastic paint job! I count 8 different colors on this little guy, and they all work well to give him some real flair. The apps are consistent and sharp. The sculpt and paint are the two biggest strengths of this figure.
Articulation is minimal, much as it has been for most Ben 10 figures. Gravattack gets cut shoulders and hips and single pin elbows. That's it- 6 points. He won't be taking any fantastic poses, but he'll get the job of standing done well.
The new figures come with a tiny (really tiny!) version of themselves on a little skateboard thing that will clip onto the Omnitrix toy. The detail on the mini is fantastic and it should be fun to Omnitrix with until it gets lost under the sofa somewhere.
Gravattack is a great new release. The sculpt and paint combine to create a unique and eye-catching addition to any display, he's bound to be fun to play with, and at $7 he's wildly affordable. I'm looking forward to the new cartoon, and to the other Omniverse releases! Aliens, aliens, aliens!
