From the depths of tragically constructed figures comes this version of Zam Wessel, complete with gargantuan cranial proportions and an outfit constructed of semi-durable fibers and the greatest gift to mankind - plastic! That's right, and if you act now you'll also receive something with less articulation than a Barbie Doll and a uniform that has been airbrushed on! O, and did I mention the mention the two pounds of material surrounding the brainpan?

This figure has to be the saddest of the sad and the only one not to grace the hollowed halls of 12" Bounty Hunters for me. I say this because of the above-mentioned flaws, plus the fact that the shape-shifting "mask" she has with her looks absolutely dreadful when its placed upon the head that is three times larger than the body that has to carry such a burden. These flaws pretty much negate the fact that she has some interesting additions in the way of weaponry, armor, a decent looking - albeit oversized - helmet, and a few other accessories to add to the list.

If you think you must buy this atrocious thing, then at least take a look at the larger pictures of it before making your decision. It is, in a word, vile, and you won't be happy with the beast. Forewarned is forearmed.

Hasbro has done it again with a poor female figure. The head is melon like and the lack of mobility is an oxymoron to the name ACTION FIGURE. Please, oh please tell someone at Hasbro to make a cool female figure. Go buy a CY Girl and copy it for crying out loud.

Sad but true, this figure is a disappointment. She has a limited degree of articulation. The arms are sad. They only move at the shoulders. Head moves, knees bend, legs move at hips (with a large range of motion there). Movable at waist/torso as well. Costume is painted on for upper body (purple arms and chest). Why oh why have they let us down? This is more like a freakish hybid cross of a megacephalic (oversized head) Barbie and a real action figure...something went severly wrong in the design and production process. Well, you have been warned.

Wow-- i was so disappointed when i saw this figure. It's arms look like little pipe cleaners, it has a giant head, and it is out of scale both with itself and the other 12 inch figures. COME ON HASBRO!! what happened to the Hoth Leia and Defense of Naboo female body molds?? they fit in with the other figures. i WON'T be purchasing this mess.
Articulation a bounty hunter does make! - Review written on September 26, 2002

First, the detail on the clothing is very good. Zam's helmet, binoculars, and armor are top tier work. The "samurai" skirt she wears could have been more than just a rubber piece with embossed details. This would have made up for a lot of the short comings.
However, her head is too large and it is worse with the mask on. The worst part about this figure is that the articulation is liken more to that of a "Barbie" doll than a Star Wars 12" figure, a bounty hunter no less. I know Hasbro has made some amazing female figures for the "Joe" line and this would have been the figure to use that template for. If you were disappointed with the Aurra Sing to the point where you wish you wouldnt have bought it, don't buy this figure. If you are a completest to some degree, then go ahead and pick it up. Be warned, this piece is not destined for dynamic dioramas.
