The pod has some scuffs which can be buffed out. Pod has no cracks or broken pieces. Pod runs on two AAA batteries which are included. Pod lights up, blinks, and makes futuristic sounds.

*In general Full Articulation (14 POA or 14 points of articulation) refers to 14 jointed areas on an action figure that are poseable. Joints may bend and/or rotate depending on style of joint. Very few figures have more than 14 POA and most have less than 14 POA. More POA means greater flexibility in the action figure. "Fully poseable," "fully articulated," and "full articulation" are common terms used in action figure descriptions. Unless the action figure has at minimum 14 POA I will not define it as having Full Articulation. Some manufacturers and sellers consider an action figure is fully articulated when there are 10 POA, 8 POA, and sometimes even 6 POA (e.g. legs, arms, head, waist). No matter where you purchase your action figures you must ALWAYS count POA before buying. Remember that fully poseable/articulated does not always mean the figure has 14 points of articulation. Some buyers count a head that rotates and nods as 2 POA, a shoulder that rotates and extends as 2 POA, feet that rotate and bend as 2 POA, etc.; so be careful! Condition and POA are two main factors that decide price/value of action figures. Some rare and very old figures have a high value with few POA but many times this is not the case.*

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

POA checkboxes (above):

Head or Neck rotates and/or nods ( 1 POA).

L/R Shoulders (below Head/Neck and above chest) rotate and/or extend ( 2 POA).

L/R Biceps (below shoulder and above elbow; on arm) rotate (e.g. Lord Slug) almost never extend ( 2 POA).**

L/R Elbows (below shoulder and above wrists; on arm) rotate and/or bend ( 2 POA).

L/R Forearms (below elbow and above wrists; on arm) rotate and almost never bend ( 2 POA).***

L/R Wrists or Hands (below elbow or forearm and above figertips; on arm) rotate and rarely bend ( 2 POA).

Waist or Hips (below shoulders and above legs; on torso) rotate and rarely bend ( 1 POA).

L/R Legs (below waist and above knees; attached to hip) have front-to-back rotation (180?) and rarely rotate ( 2 POA).

L/R Thighs (below waist and above knee; on leg) rotate (e.g. General Blue, few Ultimate DBZ figures) and almost never bend ( 2 POA).**

L/R Knees (Below waist and above ankle; on leg) bend and rarely rotate ( 2 POA).

L/R Shins (Below knee and above ankle; on leg) rotate (e.g. Super Majin Buu) and almost never bend ( 2 POA).***

L/R Feet or Ankles (below knee, shin, or attached to ankle) rotate and/or bend ( 2 POA).

Tail (Attached to backside; usually near tail bone) rotates and almost never bends ( 1-3 POA).****

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

**Not common and very rare. Found on very few action figures. Can create more than 14 POA. Increased cost to manufacture are generally more valuable.

***Some figures have POA at the forearm rather than at the wrist, this is considered POA at the wrist or hand. Figures that have POA at the forearm and wrist will have a checkmark in both categories. Same concept applies for shins and ankles. Figures with one POA below the knee will have POA at the feet or ankles. Figures must have two POA below the knee for articulation in the shins. It is rare for more than three POA on one arm or one leg. Keep an eye out for these figures as they will have greater than 14 POA.

****Figure must have a tail attached to the backside for POA. Tails generally have at least one POA. Tails rarely have zero POA or several POA.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Additional information on Articulation of action figures found on Wikipedia:

A common feature among action figures is body articulation, often referred to as points of articulation (POA) or joints. The most basic forms of articulation include one neck joint, two shoulder joints, and two hip joints. Beyond these, rotating wrists, bending knees, and a swiveling waist are also common. Various terms have come into practice such as a "cut" joint, frequently used to allow a basic head rotation at the neck or arm rotation at the shoulder. The "T" joint at a figure's hips commonly allows up to 180? of front-to-back leg rotation; although, this may vary. Ball joints often allow more liberal movement than a cut, such as the figure's head being able to tilt in addition to a cut's strict vertical rotation. Basic knee articulation often relies on what is considered a pin joint. (Wikipedia)
