Fantastic review of Agent Helix w/ accessories at The Terror Drome

Terror Drome forum member CADPAT comes through with another impressive review with a great assortment of images, this time for the upcoming (and eagerly anticipated) Agent Helix figure.  This version of the figure looks miles better than initial pre-production pictures looked, with the heavy eye shadow and clunky paint apps.  This is one freaking awesome looking toy, I have to say.  One figure I’m really looking forward to.

You can check out the review here, and the images are mirrored below.
