Elder Scrolls V: "Symbiote" Daedra/Dark Elf


I ordered this little guy a while back and well here he is! For those who are familiar with the Elder Scrolls series, this is the newest version of the Daedra Armor from Skyrim. Adorning the said armor is a dark elf and he is also prudent in regards to the matching weaponry, shield and sword and all! Made by a company simply named "Symbiote Studios".


At first glimpse of this merchandise a while back, I thought it was another one of those "POP" mini things. While similar, it's two different breed altogether. Most POPs I have come across don't have these removable accessories like this certain Dark Elf. A cool little addition to say the least. To be more precise, it actually falls in similarities with Marvel's 'Mini Muggs' as one of my pictures will astutely show.


Suffice to say, with how he looks, keeping the helmet on is a more aesthetic and more recognizable form. Though I wish the helmet would stay on a bit more fervently than it does, but seeing how the material is rubbery, it tends to 'slip' a bit if not put on a certain way; though a minor complaint really. The eyes align with the helmet holes and it stays on decently enough.


Comparing it to the recent 'Micro Muggs' for the Iron Man 3 lineage, it does have a size on him(and I picked the biggest contrasting Iron Man armor to put next to the Daedra).


This is the Avengers Mini Muggs next to him and again, the more obvious 'distant' cousin.


And here we are right next to the original Mighty Muggs! To point out the obvious, the original Muggs do have a size advantage to Symbiote Studio's Daedra Armored Elf product. Though it's in the same price, believe it or not. But again, I have no qualms with it. It's a good mini addition.

Where is Mr. Daedra???
On a closing note, this rather jovial looking thing is worth the price I think. The details aren't stellar but the likeness it has to what it is molded after does justice. It's a good little addition on my 'entertainment center'.
