Zoalord Pluqstahl Figure-Max Factory Guyver Bio Fighter Collection 11 Review

Written by Jax. Pics Courtesy of Donnay


The packaging for the Lightning Zoalord Pluqstahl Action Figure has been reverted back to the previous designs like Guyvers I,II,III etc. I like this packaging design more so this got me pretty happy to begin with.

Once again, I would like to emphasize that in order to get the Pluqstahl Action Figure out of the box, no cuts or tears are needed. So the toy maintains much of its value even after it has been removed from the box and is no longer considered mint in sealed box. Though of course a brand new Guyver Figure is still worth more then one that has been displayed.


The eyes this time round no longer employs the reflective paint seen in the Guyver Figures as well as the Zoalord Gyout. Would have preferred Max Factory to build on the good points in past figures and retain it in future figures.



Lots of intricate details on the face and the essense of the character is very well capture in the figure.The Red Zoa Crystals on the forehead and all over the body look fantastic. And once again, compliments to the great paint job.
The Pluqstahl Action Figure is highly poseable as well and yet joints are beautifully hidden or played down so that they do not bother you visually. Also, as is the case of the Zoalord Gyout, Pluqstahl comes with body armour and on top of that a white cape. Very cool!
Some time was taken to put on the cape for the Pluqstahl figure. I like the little addition of the three triangular pieces of metal to the ends of the cape. This helps to weigh down the cape so that the cape does not just dangle like a light piece of cloth and helps in getting the cape to look right. Pretty smart.
Actually, if you really want to be anal about it,the armour and cape are for Pluqstahl when he is in human form. Same as that for Gyout. But I am not complaining about the addition of this cool feature. But after displaying him for a while i decided to keep that cloth back into the box cause I do not want it to turn yellow with time.
Getting Ready.......

Summoning his powers........
Lightning Strike!!!
Great lightning accessory there. Very useful in re creating Pluqstahl's classic lightning strike moves.
The Pluqstahl Action Figure is the latest Toy Figure in the Max Factory Guyver Bio Fighter Collection series.

Toy Review: Bandai Tamashii Nations S.H. Figuarts Piccolo Dragonball Z Action Figure

The S.H Figuarts Piccolo figure is a fantastic figure at a fantastic price. First released in Novemeber 2009, this figure had a recommended retail price of USD$45. Surprisingly, this beautiful  S.H Figuarts Piccolo figure   and can still be found on  Amazon.com   at a very reasonably $35 dollars at the point of writing. Looking closely at the  S.H Figuarts Piccolo figure , you can tell that Bandai did a fantastic job and they really captured the feel of Piccolo very well. The figure itself stands at around 170mm and comes with many accessories that you can mix and match, making it a very fun figure to have. He comes with interchangeable hands, face and his iconic costume with turban and cape.  Also, I think Piccolo looks very nice with folded arms which is also included. The  S.H Figuarts Piccolo figure   is very articulated and the joints are smooth, making posing easy.  A small regret is that the  S.H Fig...

Bandai Tamashii Nations - SH Figuarts DBZ Majin Buu Figure Review

Introduction - SH Figuarts Majin Buu Figure Review   "Buu turn you into candy and eat you!"  The Majin Buu is the final villain in the Dragon Ball Z Manga. Honestly, I did not like the Dragon Ball Z Majin Buu Saga when I read the manga as a kid. I felt that the author should have ended the manga after the Cell Arc. All the different forms of the Majin Buu such as Kid Buu, Super Buu (Evil Buu) , Innocent Buu (Fat Buu or Zen Buu) as well as the other intermediate forms as Buu absorbed other characters really got me thinking that the author was   running out of ideas. Nevertheless, the character design is pretty unique and the SH Figuarts Majin Buu (Fat Buu or Zen version) captured this very well.  Packaging I knew that the SH Figuarts Majin Buu was going to be a big figure but when I received the actual figure, I was pleasantly surprised that it was HUGE . The box itself is much larger than the SH Figuarts DBZ Nappa figure. ...

Zoaloard Gyuot/Guyot Action Figure with Unito Remover - Max Factory Guyver Bio Fighter Collection 07 Review

Written by Jax. Pics Courtesy of Donnay The packaging for the Zoalord Gyout has been changed and replaced with what you see here. A blue paper box with the plastic casing housed inside.. I personally do not like the packaging because it apppears more low end and it breaks the continuity from the previous  Guyver Figures . But as soon as I opened the box and held the Gyuot figure in my hands, I fell in love with him immediately. The eyes are painted with orange reflective paint so that it glows under certain lighting. The Zoa Crystal and the gravitation orbs are made of a certain translucent material that seems to glow even though you know that they are not really glowing. I was elated to see that Gyuot had tons of accessories. The  Zoalord Gyout  comes with chest armour plates which you can attach on by removing Gyuot's head and wearing it over his shoulders. He also comes with armour for the shoulders, wrists, knees and legs. It gives him a really majestic lo...
