The New York City Police Department (NYPD or NYCPD), officially the City of New York Police Department, was established in 1845 and is the largest municipal police force in the United States, having primary responsibilities in law enforcement and investigation within the five boroughs of New York City. The NYPD is one of the oldest police departments established in the United States, tracing its roots back to the seventeenth century.
Members of the NYPD are frequently referred to by politicians, some media and their own police cars by the nickname New York's Finest. The NYPD is headquartered at 1 Police Plaza, located on Park Row in Lower Manhattan across the street from City Hall.
These are soon-to-be-released POP TOYS 1/6th scale New York Police - Policeman and Policewoman 12-inch figures or male and female NYPD officers. First impressions: I think the sleeves on the male officer's shirt is way too short. He looks more like a male stripper pretending to be a policeman than an actual law enforcement officer. I also don't think Police Officers are allowed to have a beard or five o'clock shadow. He looks more like the perp he's supposed to catch / apprehend LOL Also the belt is worn too loose and the pouches are missing in front. Just google NYPD and you can see plenty of images of these fine officers of the law and they look nothing like the figure being shown here. I have some 1/6th scale Police Officer action figures from before and they look better than this. One such 12-inch figure is the Real Heroes Top Cop action figure reviewed on my toy blog HERE.

ReplyDeleteAbout beards. I found in internet several images, showing several officers (althought very few)sporting a beard or five o'clock shadow, so, apparently they are allowed.
