Product Description
Boasting a 20-inch wingspan and featuring multiple points of articulation, the Leonopteryx creature figure will seat one action figure (not included). This works with most other 3 3/4" - 4 1/4" figures(sold separately). This figure is accompanied by a character-specific Level 4 webcam i-TAG and a display stand. Not a flying toy. This figure is a highly detailed replica of the creature from James Cameron's 2009 film, Avatar. Measuring 24.4 meters in length with a 20-meter wingspan, the garishly-hued Leonopteryx, is among the most formidable of Pandora's creatures, is a carnivore which primarily feeds upon the likes of Mountain and Forest Banshees. The Leonopteryx is armed with monstrous jaws, a razor-sharp fin, and immense talons. Jake Sully's successful attempt to tame a Great Leonopteryx, earning him the mystic title of Toruk Makto, generates profound reverence among the Na'vi, helping to unite the latter against their human adversaries.

 A beautiful figure, but a 'toy'? December 25, 2009

This Leonopteryx is a beautiful figurine, and I use that term lightly because it has a 20 inch wingspan. It's huge! But then again, it was huge in the movie, and the scale of it matches the Na'vi figures correctly. The coloring is beautiful, looking down on it from above, but the underside is mostly one color. The anatomy is very well detailed as well, but with the lack of other colors on most of the body it leaves a little to be desired. It is a very sturdy model, and the wings can be (with some force required) switched between two positions, however they're somewhat subtle in difference. The tips of the wings are clear, stiff and pointy! You'll put an eye out with this thing if you're not careful. It's a bit difficult to get the Na'vi figurines to 'sit' on the Leonopteryx convincingly, and I don't think if you were 'playing' with it (flying it around) the Na'vi character would stay in place. But I think it's beautiful to look at and makes a stunning addition to the Avatar collection.

The plastic this toy is made from, is flexible, so less change of breakage. It was easy to put together, for an adult. Some of the parts need some strength, so I don't recommend a child putting it together.
Overall, the detail is nice. The underside is almost devoid of markings though. But the rest of the creature has plenty of detail. The clear stand is a nice way to display it.
Overall, this is not really a toy to "play" with. Its more a model to be admired, but its durable enough to withstand some light play. Though I don't recommend this for young children. I got it for my daughter who is 11 and she isn't one to beat it to death, so its working out just fine.
I just wish the Ne'vi's braids actually connected with the leo like in the movie. But the Ne'vi's hands can hold onto the natural "reins"

This is a stunning creature. The colors are true and clear. You get the feel of just how terrifying it would be to have this huge animal chasing you and how terrifying it would be to encounter one when flying your own "banshee".

This figure is massive and gigantic and very articulated. the colors on this figure are beautiful and amazing to look at. this figure is very durable but very difficult to put together even for an adult. dont know how this toy could possibly be educational. If you loved AVATAR this is the first toy i would recommend you purchase, i have no complaints about this product, amazing for all ages.

With a 20" wingspan and a 14.5" body, this toy is enormous. And Amazon has it on sale for less than $20? Buy this. Buy this now.
This is a detailed (mostly), very accurate representative of the enormous flying beast from the movie. But is it worth your money if you like creatures, or Avatar, or cool dragon-looking things? Yes.
PROS:
-Highly detailed on the top, torso, neck and head.
-Huge. Incredible value for money.
-Durable.
-The tips of the giant wings are a clear plastic, and it is both a really nice touch, and makes it stand out among other toys or figures.
-It's a lot easier to move the wings up and down than on its smaller counterpart, the Banshee.
CONS:
-The only articulation is in minor adjustments of the wings up and down, or tilting the neck and head up and down, or rotating the head from side to side.
-Have dry, clean hands to snap the head onto the neck, and the neck onto the body. It can take a lot of strength and patience to do both.
-The underside of a lot of the body is not detailed, but painted the base color of the body.
-The stand won't let you rotate the figure in any way.
I am very happy with this figure, regardless of its flaws. It stands proud among my other displays.
