I said to myself while watching The Avengers that if Hot Toys were to make a figure of Agent Coulson, I would buy it. Sure enough, $179.99 plus shipping later, I would keep that promise. Hot Toys has a reputation, and I fully bought into it. While Coulson lives, is he worth the price? Find out in the review of Hot Toys' Agent Phil Coulson.

Going with standard protocol, here's a look at the cover slip for Agent Phil. As with all of Hot Toys' Avengers releases, you have the faded dot print, this time in blue, and the shot of Coulson himself. The name at the top and bottom of the boxes follows the standard as well. Along the sides are a small S.H.I.E.L.D. emblem.
Taking the cover off, you're treated to the goods. The most enticing part of any Hot Toys release are the accessories included. As for hands, you'll get an extra pair of trigger hands as well as a right hand for holding the best accessory, a set of Captain America vintage trading cards. Also included in the package are a S.H.I.E.L.D. dossier, watch, eyeglasses, cellphone, headset, walkie-talkie and I.D. card.
For Coulson himself, it is Hot Toys' usual effort in terms of detail. The suit fits perfectly, but you won't be able to close the jacket. Coulson is meant to be displayed in action, so much so that the tie is fixed to be uneven. Even though the articulation is top-notch, however, there is one contention that I have to make.
As you can tell, there is no range of motion for the head on its own. It's a single piece with the neck, so if you want to move it up or down, you're out of luck. It doesn't really limit too much of what you can do, but it is a bit disappointing.
While we're here, the facial sculpt is the usual Hot Toys quality. Each wrinkle and blotch of skin matches up with the likeness of Clark Gregg. Also in this shot you get a look at the headset and glasses. I will say though that the headset is a bit difficult to get in. Whatever you do, please put this on somewhere that isn't carpet. It will disappear forever should it fall in the carpet.
The big attraction though is the big gun. It features an LED in the barrel, giving it the effect of preparing to be fired. The gun is immensely detailed. From the scope to the weathering effects along the gun, it's the accessory that has to be displayed. The hands are able to hold both handles of the gun tightly and isn't too heavy to make the joints weaken. The only problem, no fault of the gun itself, is that you can't pose him looking through the scope. That's the problem created by the lack of an upper neck joint and not positioning of the rifle.
My favorite part of this figure is the smallest detail, the vintage Captain America cards. The detail on these is incredible at the scale they are. Each card is printed as it was in the movie. As you can tell, there's a bit of blood in the right hand corner of each card. I wish they would have included a clean version of the cards, but I am definitely glad they included them at all.
Another example of the detail is the I.D. card. As you see in the picture, it fits nicely into his jacket pocket. It's honestly scary how clear the I.D. is at that scale. You can read everything on the card, not to mention a clear picture of the man himself. Also in this shot, you can make out the stitching and buttons on the shirt along with the pattern on the tie.
Taking a final look at Coulson, it is the usual standout effort from the company. It is Hot Toys, you know what you are getting here. The accessory count may not be the highest, but the ones included are worth the price of entry. I knew from the beginning that I wanted Agent Coulson and I don't regret the purchase one bit. He may not have a suit of armor, a hammer, or shield, but this was the Avenger I had to have and am glad I do.
