Christian had found P-Body at Toys R Us and was wanting an Atlas, so I ordered the set so we could both save on shipping. I got P-Body as part of a set with Atlas online. It also lights up, via the same type of mechanism. P-Body includes a portal gun, painted to match the figure.

It seems just a tad bright to look right, plus it’s battery powered, so I can’t see many people leaving it on long term.
By pushing the button the figure’s back, you can enable the light up eye, which will stay-on until the button is pushed again. There’s a fuzzy line here or there, but nothing too bad.
P-Body’s paint seems to be pretty clean over all. The sculpt does limit what you can do with the articulation, but that’s not too surprising, given the design and scale. Everything looks pretty much spot-on to the design from the game, so that’s all pretty good. The sculpt is totally unique to P-Body, and I believe it may have been built from a 3D model of the character. According to Christian, P-Body’s a girl, which seems weird to me, but I guess if you have to assign genders to inanimate objects, P-Body could be a “girl.” P-Body is about 7 ½ inches tall and features 17 points of articulation.

P-Body was released as part of what I’d guess you’d call the second series of Portal 2 figures from NECA. Thing is, I don’t really know that I have any new ground to cover here, so I’ve actually been pushing these two back for over a month. I also didn’t want to steal his thunder, so I pushed my own reviews back a little. He was very excited about them and asked if he could do some guest reviews.
See, Christian and I received our Atlas and P-Body figures at the same time. This creates the issue of duplicate reviews, an issue I’m facing today. Believe it or not, there’s some cross over, which means, occasionally, one of them will own a figure I do. I’ve had them for a little while, but for the most part Tim and Christian have their own interests separate from mine. Guest reviews are still something I’m getting used to on this site, I must say. Stability issues aside, it’s a pretty great figure, certainly worth the purchase if you’re a fan of the game. The figure is a very nice representation of that design. Even though I’m ususally the second player, aka P-Body, I have to admit I think Atlas features the better design. Atlas also includes a portal gun, which has been detailed with blues to match Atlas’s color scheme and lights up a nice purple color.Ītlas was part of a set with P-Body, which I purchased from Big Bad Toy Store. Still not something I see being left on long term, but cool nonetheless. Atlas’s light seems a bit dimmer than P-Body’s, which seems more accurate to the game. Atlas adds a light up feature to the list of traits shared with P-body. There’s a few areas of fuzzy lines, and a few small instances of bleed over, but overall it looks pretty good. The paintwork on Atlas is all pretty clean. The design of the lower legs and feet also makes Atlas a bit wobbly, so he has a tendency to shelf dive. Again, like P-Body, the sculpt and design lead to some decreased articulation, which is annoying, but comes with the territory. All the details look spot on, which is really great. It looks like a pretty straight recreation of Atlas’s design from the game. Just like P-Body, Atlas features an all-new sculpt. I’m hesitant to move some pieces, given the fragility of the design. Possibly more, but it’s a bit hard to tell with this figure. Atlas is a little shorter than P-Body at just over 7 inches tall and he features 15 points of articulation. I looked at P-Body yesterday, now let’s look at the other half of this dynamic robotic duo, Atlas!Ītlas was released in tandem with P-Body in the second series of Portal 2 figures from NECA. Christian’s already taken a look at his set, and now it’s time for me to look at mine. My brother Christian and I had a great time playing through the game, and we both wanted a set of the figures based on the Co-op mode’s stars, Atlas and P-Body. One of the best Co-op modes in recent years has to be Portal 2, which really hits home the need for the players to, you know, cooperate. One of the big things that does pull me into a game is multiplayer capability and cooperative modes. It’s not to say I don’t enjoy playing them, but I’m not devoted like some.
