Toy-Review: Noogler from Android 2 Mini Collectible by DYZ Plastic

TOY-STORY: As previously blogged, the Android Mini Collectibles Series 2 is the second series release featuring the Google Android mascot as a 3-inch tall toy as produced and released by DYZ Plastic.

Each display case consists of 16 x blind boxed containing a randomly placed toy within, with NOOGLER part of the basic assortment, with a ratio of 1/16 - which essentially mean you might get one figure in a selection of 16 figures.

This box of Androids Series 2 is courtesy of The Taken Shop (The Official Distributer of Androids in Malaysia). You are able to procure the set or single boxes online via http://www.takenshop.com, as well OG-Green and DIY Androids.

Designed by Jeff Yaksick of The Android Team, Noogler is one of three designs Jeff had contributed to this series, and possess a propellerhead-beanie with articulated fan-blades, and is one of the standout accessories of the Android-form (along with the cherry for Gary Ham's "CUPCAKE").

This is also the only Android with an additional plastic-tray protecting the propellerhead. The plastic-tray is easily removable. The figure itself possess three points of articulation: the rotating head, and both arms at shoulders.



Truth be told, I hadn't been what you would call a huge fan of this design when it was first revealed online, as the design is pretty simplistic, and no doubt likened to the "kid" aspect of the design. Seeing the figure in-hand, unfortunately my position had not changed too much. The unique aspect of this figure is the rotating blades, and that's about it for me, frankly.
