Well, I've waited some months, but finally this ship was on deep discount. First: it IS a JacStone set, so as expected, there are ugly figs and lots of big pieces.

I just bought the Jack Stone Spiderman set and lo and behold, the hands can move like a minifig's. I don't know if this will be a permanent change to the Jack Stone line or not.
