“What if we could go anywhere we want in the whole galaxy?”
As Skeleton Crew debuted on Disney+ in December 2024, Hasbro put a full wave of Skeleton Crew figures into immediate stock. The six-figure wave consisted of Jude Law’s mysterious character Jod Na Nawood, Captain Brutus, and the four main characters including Wim.
Wim is listed with the ‘At Attin’ subtitle which indicates he may have different outfits throughout the show - in reality, this is the school outfit he wears for the entirety of the adventure which does render the subtitle almost irrelevant. The Skeleton Crew Galaxy Collection has been given a rich Yellow accent colour which is used on the character name and the side artwork with Wim numbered as the 3rd figure in the Skeleton Crew collection. His side artwork connects to Neel before him and onward to Fern. The rear of the box carries a repeat of this artwork and a short synopsis of the series rather than the character - avoiding any specific spoilers. The backing cards of each of the newer boxes are also now aligned to the same accent colour scheme and feature a background. For Wim, this artwork is a planetscape with a couple of buildings that seems to be the Observatory Moon, again at odds with the specific ‘At Attin’ mention after Wim’s name on the box.
Wim is wearing his At Attin school uniform, the outfit he has for nearly the entirety of the season. This is made up of two layers of shirts - one brown, one blue - over which is the cream school jacket complete with an emblem on the left side in two gone grey and a red central badge. The jacket also features gold buttons on the opposite lapel and a communicator built into the right arm cuff. Wim’s trousers are a plain dark brown with sculpted pockets but no additional paint applications. The outfit is finished with a pair of grey trainers - again with sculpted fastenings but no additional paint. Proportions for Wim appear to be accurate, and he stands taller than his friend Neel - but slightly shorter than Fern and KB.
Wim’s head utilises face print tech to create a good likeness of Ravi Cabot-Conyers, but perhaps one that is a little bit neutral and therefore it doesn’t quite capture Wim’s expressions or mannerisms. The hair is an additional piece, giving a crisp separation between the skin tone and the sculpted hair.
Wim’s first accessory is a similar Walkie-Talkie to the one packed with Neel. While it's the same base piece, Wim’s device lacks the detail on the control panel that we see with Neel’s but then in contrast does have a row of lower buttons painted - something that is left plain grey on Neel’s device. The Walkie-Talkie fits into either of Wim’s gripping hands, but there is no belt clip or socket to hold the device when not in use.
Wim comes with a backpack, a different piece from the other Skeleton Crew children, cast in a similar cream to his jacket. It includes painted grey greebles to one side with brown trim on the upper right and around the two flexible straps. To one side is a cluster of tools which seem to be a rake and a shovel that Wim uses to start digging out the entrance to the Onyx Cinder The rake is coloured gold, with the shovel in orange with a further grey clip or component on top. These are fixed in place and cannot be removed to use as accessories for Wim.
What we do get is two accessories that Wim can hold and that can also be stowed in shaped slots in the backpack. The first is a spanner of sorts with a gunmetal grey finish. This is a bit too slim for the gripping hands for Wim and therefore sits a bit loose. The other is a torch, a basic design different to those used by the other kids. It has a dark grey base with silver panels on top and bottom and on the control buttons halfway down the main shaft.
Wim has 17 points of articulation, a decent count considering his smaller frame. This does include a thigh swivel which we understand is being phased out. Wim’s movement is extensive with no bulky clothing to restrict any of the joints. This gives Wim a reasonably wide range of posing options including standing or kneeling and using any of the three included accessories. My only problem is the elbow articulation only reaching 90 degrees, which stops Wim from holding the Walkie-Talkie directly to the side of his head.
The Black Series release of Wim ticks most of the boxes we’d expect with a likeness accurate to the actor and the costume used in the show and a selection of accessories that perhaps try to counteract the smaller frame of the figure and to fill out space in the box. It is a shame that Hasbro couldn’t leave the rake & shovel as further removable accessories considering they appear to be an individual piece. The other issue for me is in the elbow joint which doesn’t go far enough to pose Wim talking on the Walkie-Talkie accessory. He and Neel look great together as does the wider foursome once assembled.

About Me : As a child of the 70's and 80's I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force) and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licences - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
