Toy Review: SH Figuarts Street Fighter Ryu Action Figure Bandai Tamashii Nations

This S.H. Figuarts RYU Action Figure looks like a good start for a promising line. Many companies have taken on the Street Fighter line before but SH Figuarts is known to deliver highly articulated and beautiful figures so this got me really excited.

Unlike the SH Figuarts Dragonball Z line which has been pretty stingy with power up effects and figure stands, the S.H. Figuarts RYU Action Figure will include a background sheet featuring his stage and a "hadoken" energy effect and it looks great!

The S.H. Figuarts RYU Action Figure comes with the following:

Ryu figure (15cm high)
Optional expression parts (2 types)
Optional hands left and right
Hadoken effect
Effect support part
Background sheet

Release date for this figure is in June 2017 and he will retail for 6480yen (about USD$55)

The SH Figuarts Ryu figure is available for Pre Order on Amazon.com.

Toy Review: Max Factory Figma Guyver I Figure vs Maxfactory Bio Fighter Collection Guyver I Figure

I have been a collector of the Maxfactory Bio Fighter Collection Guyver figures for many years now and it was only recently that the Figma Guyver I came to my attention. Even though I have seen pictures of the Figma Guyver I figure for a while, I had always thought that it was just a scaled down version of the previous Bio Fighter Collection Guyver I figure. It turns out that I was wrong and there are many differences between the old and new Guyver figure and the Figma Guyver I could be a good start to a promising toy line. In terms of scale, the Figma Guyver I figure is smaller than the BFC Guyver I figure but the differences do not stop here. Articulation and paint job wise, the Figma version is fantastic and even more articulated than the BFC version. For example, the Figma Guyver I can actually perform a high kick and a split which the BFC Guyver I is not able to, due to the very hard rubber located near the waist. Also, you can switch out the chest p

Guyver Figure- Guyver III Max Factory Bio Fighter Collection 01 Review

Written By Jax. Pics Courtesy of Donnay The Guyver Figures from the Max Factory Bio Fighter Collection are one of the coolest toy figures I have ever came across. The Guyver III Bio Fighter Collection Series 01 (Max Factory) is the first figure of this series. Lets review it point by point: Packaging: I personally love the packaging for this series. The outer layer is a transparent box which offers protection for the second layer. The second layer is the packaging which houses the plastic covers that sandwiches the Guyver III within it. It really looks good on display with all the printouts of the images of the toy itself, as well as display of the arsenal of interchangable arms and blades(more on this later). What is best is that you do not need to make any cuts or tears to the box in order to get the toy out. This means that if at any point you do not want to display the Guyver III figure any more, you can just pack it back in to the box just like the first day you re

Gigantic Dark Guyver III Action Figure- Max Factory Guyver Bio Fighter Collection 09 Review

Written by Jax Pics Courtesy of Donnay The packaging for the Gigantic Dark Guyver is as shown. Box art looks great, and all the accessories can be seen through the clear display window. The Gigantic Dark Guyver comes with GigaSmasher changeable part, Gravity ram (long and short), Two interchangeable heads, one with sonic orbs closed and one open, three high frequency swords for each arm, interchangeable wrist parts (fist, grab, and hold), and an improved display stand (more on this) After spending about 10 mins untying all the wiring binding the Gigantic Dark Figure, he is finally released from his plastic prison and ready for action! But first let me point out a personal experience I had with the Gigantic Dark Guyver's High Frequency Blades. Everyone should take note of this. The three blades on the arm work this way. The longest and second longest blades have holes on the ends of the blades it self. On the arms there are corresponding pegs where you can fit
