From his boyhood, Ted Knight had an absorbing interest in astronomy. Born to wealth, he was able to devote much time to his hobby, and eventually made a remarkable discovery. He found a way to utilize infra-rays from distant stars with his amazing gravity rod, which was first described as "an invention that overcomes the forces of gravity and launches bolts of energy" by radiating starlight. Having perfected this instrument, Ted next created the red and green costume the world was soon to know as the uniform of Starman. A good figure with a phenomenal face sculpt and a light-up rod. The rod fits in it's holster, too. His head is bent somewhat oddly, and looks strange if he isn't staring at his rod in wonderment, as if to say. "Hey, why is this glowing?". He could use some knee joints, too. But these are small quibbles when the figure is this darn good. The knee joints most likely were sacrificed to keep the figure in the price point with the addition of the light-up mechanism. An acceptable tradeoff, in my book. |
