I just did a review of these at www.mwctoys.com . I think they're great, and I hope they make some more.

I just received all 5 sets of two figures from eBay yesterday, so thought I would give my opinion on them.
Firstly, I can't get over how great these figures are. I wanted them primarily because they are numerous and small, so can decorate my new flat all over the place. But these things are great! Admittedly, Leela looks a little strange with a flat chest, and Fry looks damn weird from the front but that's a problem with making Fry 3D and therefore a problem with all the figures made of him, and his character model in the game.
The robots, unsurprisingly, steal the show. I'm not so keen on Bender's expression, he looks a bit too cute. Aside from him, the robots are all great. Calculon actually looks like he has a big ego, and Url is the only character to come with an accessory: his riot stick. I expected to love the Robot Devil figure, and rightly so, this guy is very well modelled and I only wish they would make one about the same size as the Bendy models I own!
A special mention has to be made to Roberto though. Whoever designed his model should be given a raise, definetely. His head really does stick out significantly from his body, and his neck is just the right proportion to the rest of his body. If only he came with a stabbing knife!
One word of warning: Professor Farnsworth, and I believe Dr Zoidberg (haven't opened Dr Z yet) have lab coats. They are pieces of rubber which sit on the shoulders of the model. Zoidberg's one looks good, as as far as I can tell it is closed at the front and so shouldn't move much. However, the Professor's really looks terrible and as soon as you touch it moves around a lot. I realise that Farnsworth without his lab coat might looks a bit strange, but I'm sure there must have been a better way to make it.
This is the first time I've ever bought really collectable figures in my life, and I really hope that Toynami decide to go ahead and make a Series 2 of Futurama I-Men.
My score: 8/10 - points lost for Farnsworth's screwed lab coat and the fact that if they were a couple of inches taller the figures would be even better.
