Preview: Play Arts Kai Metal Gear Solid Cyborg Ninja

Greetings heroes/citizen. Square Enix will be making more Metal Gear Solid characters available in their Play Arts line I guess, since there are pictures of  a prototype  Cyborg Ninja circulating the net today. My wishlist is of course the “Young” and Old Snake, Raiden (Rising or MGS4) and any female characters (yeah,,anyone!).  Anyway enjoy these teaser images, it’ll be not too long I guess to see a colored prototype.  Read more

Review: figma Kamen Rider Thrust

Greetings heroes citizen,yesterday I received my latest figma figure, Kamen Rider Thrust, from Kamen Rider Dragon Knight series. I’m not a huge fan of Kamen Rider Dragon Knight but I really love the original Japanese version Kamen Rider Ryuki, and in the original series Thrust is known as Kamen Rider Gai.

Kamen Rider Thrust (Brad Barret) is in contract with Metalgelas (a rhinoceros type mirror monster) hence giving it the rhino motif body armour. Read more

ThreeA Slicer Tomorrow King Baka

Greetings heroes/citizen. This is just a brief update, I will write a full review of this figure soon. I’m so happy I got this figure it’s a very awesome piece. No rare figure just the regular one. I pre-ordered Slicer Tomorrow King Baka, last year and the the release date kept changing by months. But I can’t be angry at ThreeA for  making this lovely figure, I rather have a nice piece a bit late than having a crappy figure on time. Read more

Play Arts Kai Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker Snake Jungle Fatigues Version

Greetings heroes/citizen. Since Square Enix recently released pictures of Metal Gear Solid Play Arts Kai Snake Battle Dress and Metal Gear Solid Play Arts Kai Kazuhira Miller, I’m really pumped up about this that I took some pictures of my Jungle Fatigues Snake. I bought this a couple of months ago (re-stocked) from AmiAmi and took it out once to check and it has been in the box since that day I received it lol.

I love Play Arts Kai Jungle Fatigues Snake more than my Play Arts Sneaking Suit Snake. The headsculpt is just superb, the only think I hate about this figure is the rifle, it’s crooked. No, you can use the “hair blower” trick on the rifle, the way it was assembled made it crooked. Anyway, that just a tiny problem, I still love this figure.

MMS150 – Iron Man 2 16th scale Mark II (Armor Unleashed Version)

Greetings heroes/citizen. No one saw this coming lol. Hot Toys Iron Man Mk. II armour is one of the highly sort after Hot Toys. So when the Mk. II made an appearnce in Iron Man 2, Hot Toys use this excuse to remake/upgrade the armour as MMS150 – Iron Man 2 16th scale Mark II (Armor Unleashed Version). This sure a great news for collectors, and obviously bad news for scalpers haha

Anyway, I already own a Hot Toys Iron Man Mk. II, I already wrote the review and you can read it here, but I still want this armour since it’s so detail and also will come with Rhodey headsculpt.  Now, I wish Hot Toys will remake Mk. I with new headsculpt and removable armour and helmet haha, a man can have dream right? Scroll down further to see the photos of  MMS150 – Iron Man 2 16th scale Mark II (Armor Unleashed Version)

PS: The last image showing holographic gauntlet,, well,, it’s a VIP bonus for Toy hunters’ customers only.

MOTU Classics Roboto

Greetings heroes/citizen.  I never like MOTU Classics Roboto’s head since I first saw the figure, the head looks strange from sides. But I really love the detail sculpt on his hands. This is my first figure from matty that has a reversed shoulders,but as you can see I already corrected the shoulders thanks to Hunterknight4. My second figure with this problem is MOTU Classics King Hssss.  All gears inside his body will turn when you turn his torso around, kinda neat gimmick, but they have to sacrifice the torso’s hinge joint. The clear plastic use for the torso, is a bit fragile, I can see some tiny cracks at where the front and back  of the torso were glued.  Although I hate his head, I still think Roboto is a cool figure.

MOTU Classics King Hssss

Greetings heroes/citizen. MOTU Classics King Hssss is definitely one of my favourite figure in this line. 4 Horsemen did a really great job sculpting King Hssss. One problem with this figure is that it has an error during  assembly, the shoulders were assembled in  reverse. Luckily a customizer Hunterknight4 made a tutorial on how to correct the shoulder the easy way, without having to crack open the torso. Now, I love my King Hssss even better. Read more
