Really awesome replica for a great price!

This is one of my favorite replica for any game. It feels really good and sturdy. It feels like it will last a long time. Only thing I wish it came in a better box
How some of you people talk about replicas you expect them to be functional like your going to take this to a zipline and use it its meant to sit on a shelf and look cool and that's what it does

Decent looks, cheap construction

Unfortunately when I received this I felt that it wasn't representative of what was displayed in the video. Overall it looks somewhat mediocre, but it does have a few nice details. The faux leather arm straps look very nice and have a quality feel to them. Also, the spinning hook has a few nice details. Some of the paint finish is poor though, and really detracts from those details.
Most of the sky hook feels very flimsy and cheap. All of the plastic feels hollow and thin. There is a lot of flex in the supports that hold the arm straps which make them feel as if they could snap with a little too much force. Several of the small pieces that are glued-on feel very flimsy too. One of those, a piece that is behind the handle on the main body of sky hook, actually broke off after just a few minutes of handling it.
The internal mechanism seems solid and works as advertized, but I wish they had put more effort into the outward appearance than the gimmicky motorized action. At this price point most of the people who will be buying this are collectors who want a nice looking piece of memorabilia to put on their shelf, not a toy to play around with.
