'Hunter - The silent and sinister hunter who hides inside a Dodge Caravan.'
Extermasite is arguably the second most successful model of the Parasites line after Destructite. It too has logical leg and arm articulation, is nicely posable and metal screws are used as part of it's construction. In hidden mode Extermasite's legs create windows for the van with it's mosquito like nose becoming a forward facing weapon. Even without the Dodge shell, it still makes a fairly decent hover tank like shape when folded up.
The nicely designed shoulder joints go a long way to help over look the odd short arms. Extermasite displays well and robust enough for play.
Condition: All examples are freshly removed from card. Diecast and chrome damage are the result of sub-par manufacturing and packing processes.
