Greetings heroes/citizen. I was looking for a backdrop that I can use for my review and I found a great website that sells nice backdrop for a really great price. Decoback produces 4 sets of backdrop with 8 different designs. The backdrop is made of a thick stock cardboard, and the printing is semi-gloss and very crisp. Each set of backdrop was printed on both side of the card. The backdrop will be held by 2 pieces of L shaped clear plastic holders. The plastic holders, hold the cards nicely and the cards will not fall or move while they’re on display. Read more

Final Attack Ride Stand and Dimension Kick Card

Filed under Action Figure Reviews, S.H.Figuarts

Greetings heroes/citizen. This is a really short review. Actually I just want to show the differences between Final Attack Ride Decade stand and Tamashii Stage Act 4, so there’s not much I can say about it. First of all, you can’t buy this stand, you’ll get it for free from retailer that have it. This is a Bandai promotion item, and they release 2 sets of this bonus prize. Set B is the Final Attack Ride Decade Stand and Set A is the Dimension Kick card. I suppose these items were given away to customers as promotion material for the movie Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Double & Decade: Movie War 2010. So if you buy the CycloneCyclone and JokerJoker Figuarts you can display the three of them making the Final Dimension Kick, sweet! Read more

S.H.F Kamen Rider Decade Violent Emotion

Greetings heroes/citizen. It’s time for another review! I love tokusatsu series, I grew up watching all kinds of toku series. From the  popular Super Sentai series (a.k.a Power Rangers),Ultraman, Kamen Rider to some of the less known series such as Changerion, just to name a few. My favorite series among them all is, of course The Kamen Rider series.
How can you not love the show, a man transform into a leather clad superhero just by waving his hands(not applicable to most Heisei Riders, and it’s not actually waving lol), rides a cool “pimped” bike and kick monsters’ butt? Anyway, to celebrate 10th  anniversary of the return of Kamen Rider series , TV Asahi aired Kamen Rider Decade. Read more

RHSW 01 02 03 Kamen Rider Double- Review

January 21, 2010 by  
Filed under Action Figure Reviews, Rider Hero Series

Greetings heroes/citizen, after I spent most of my toys budget on Hot Toys, today I ‘ll review 3 “wallet friendly” action figures from Bandai. From the mind of Ishinimori comes the legendary Kamen Rider series (a.k.a Masked Rider), one of the most popular Japan Tokusatsu series aired on TV Asahi Japan. The series started with Kamen Rider 1 and the latest version is Kamen Rider Double (some says Kamen Rider W). Shotaro and Philip slide in their Gaia memories (a flashdrive) into their Double Driver and they combine to become Kamen Rider Double (Double after this). That explain why it have 2 sides of colors on each form, Cyclone|Joker (green|black), Luna|Trigger (gold|blue) and Heat|Metal (silver|red). It have other combinations, I’ll cover that in the next review. The combination is not like Ultraman Ace which both Hakuto and Minami become Ultraman Ace. Read more

Albert Wesker first appeared as a supporting character for the first video game series and to cut a long story short, he is a one bad ass villain in the latest series Biohazard 5 (BH5). Today I will write review of the action figure made by Hot Toys, Video Game Masterpiece Albert Wesker Midnight Version . Read more

It’s another 1/6 scale action figure review lol I just noticed I haven’t buy anything other than 12″ figures lately, so that’s where all my money went to :lol: .This action figure was released couple of weeks ago, but only this time I can play it. I’ve been waiting for this action figure for months and finally I got her, yes it’s a she I seldom buy female af actually,probably there’s not much that I like. Let see if this action figure is really worth the time I’ve waited for and why I bought her. This is Hot Toys Videogame Masterpiece Biohazard 5: (Resident Evil 5) Sheva Alomar. I got this from local retailer that’s why it’s BH instead of RE, the price for this action figure start from $130 to $170 depends on where it is selling.

Medicom RAH Naked Snake: Cold War Version- Review

naked_snake_banner

Greetings heroes/citizen. I’ve been dying to get myself a Medicom RAH Snake since I started collecting 12″ action figures. When Medicom released the first Naked Snake back in 2007 I was only collecting other figures and when I realized how great that action figure was, the price is already too expensive, some even went to more than RM1000. Thank god Medicom is revisiting this tittle and I can get myself a Naked Snake action figure. Other then this action figure which is Cold War Version, Medicom will also reproduce RAH Naked Snake Tiger Stripe Camouflage Version and Square Camouflage (Zombie face paint). I can’t wait for those action figures. That will be on March or April next year probably earlier,but today I will review Medicom RAH Naked Snake: Cold War Version. Read more

HT_Chris_banner

Greetings heroes/citizen. Resident Evil (Biohazard) is one of the most popular video games by Capcom, and there are also some great action figures made by several manufacturers in various scales and types. Neca and Square Enix (Play Arts-Kai, not released yet) made quite a decent job in making the RE5 action figures although they are smaller in scale compared to the one I’m writing today. There are also trading figures made for this video game. The action figure I’ll review today is Hot Toys 12″ Biohazard 5: Chris Redfield B.S.A.A version. This is the first action figure made by Hot Toys for RE5 series. There will be Sheva and Albert Wesker followed by a variant of Chris Redfield and Albert Wesker(S.T.A.R.S version). Retail price for this action figure range from $139 to $150. This action figure was released last month, but different retails may have different release date, because I just got it on last Saturday.
