Neo Zx Tole Action Figure- Max Factory Bio Fighter Collection 08 Review

Written by Jax. Pictures Courtesy of Donnay

Packaging in this installment of the Max Factory Bio Fighter Collection Neo ZX-Tole is the same as the previous one of Gyout. Neo ZX-Tole has been converted from a Hyper Zoanoid into a Lost Number. He gave up his status as a Hyper Zoanoid just so that he can be reprocessed to encompass all of the Hyper Zoanoid Team 5's abilities in order to seek revenge on Aptom. It also means he has only 1 day to live and he intends to take down Aptom and the Guyvers before he dies.


The glossy shiny look on the body is not a result of photoshop. They do really reflect light so well.Bio Missiles on the shoulders.Can be installed by removing the shoulder pads and replacing with the Bio Missiles shoulder attachments. Pops on and off similar to those on the Aptom Figure.

Centre horn can be folded backwards to reveal the Head Beam Cannon.The two horns on the head allows slight opening and closing motion.This is necessary so that they do not get in the way of the shoulder Bio Missiles.Flaps on the arms and on the thighs can be opened to reveal the arms and legs beam cannons. Similar to Zx-Tole, the mechanism for toggling the stomach beam cannon open and closed is retained in the Neo Zx Tole Figure.

Wings are also included and are similar in design to that of Aptom and Zx-Tole. The mechanism for putting them on are the same as Zx Tole.


A new addition for the Neo ZX-Tole is the high frequency swords. Aptom does not have this ability because this came from Thancrus, who was killed by Guyver III before Aptom could have a chance of absorbing him.


I personally prefer the Neo ZX-Tole figure more then Zx Tole. I think the design of the horns on the head played a big part. With this design, the massive head sorts of balances out the bulk of the body and Neo Zx Tole looks big strong and powerful, while Zx-Tole looked abit clumsy with a big body and small skinny horns on the head.
                                      
He is quite a tragic character in the anime. Check out the final battle between Neo ZX-Tole and the Gigantic Guyver . Beware of spoilers though.

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 o...

Gigantic Guyver Action Figure- Max Factory Guyver Bio Fighter Collection 10 Review

Written By Jax. Pics Courtesy of Donnay Packaging for  Maxfactory Bio Fighter Collection 10 Gigantic Guyver Figure  is the same as that of the previous Gigantic Dark Guyver Figure . There are openings on the side of the package so that you can see the accessories more clearly. I guess the only reason for doing that is to tempt collectors more : ) Despite his size, the  Gigantic Guyver  is super articulated. Joints at the elbows allow for bending more then 90 degrees. The green gravitational boosters on the body are translucent and looks as if they are pulsating with energy. Once again, Max Factory has impressed me with the details on the  Gigantic Guyver's  face. No paint bleeding of any sort can be seen. All the details on the face are captured. The head can not only tilt downwards as in previous figures.  Gigantic Dark Guyver  and Gigantic Guyver can both tilt their heads upwards by around 45 degrees, opening up new possibi...

Toy Review: S.H Figuarts Tien Shinhan with Chao Tzu Dragonball Z Action Figure - Bandai Tamashii Nations

Tien Shinhan is one of the strongest Earthlings in the Dragon Ball Z series and an interesting character to allow us to take a break from Saiyans and Super Saiyans. The   S.H. Figuarts Tien Shinhan Action Figure  captures this look very well but I sort of hope that he should have some clothing or accessory for us to convert his attire to a one shoulder tank top as seen in the Android Sage versus the bare upper body we see here. One shoulder tank top attire and preparing the Neo Tri Beam attack to stop Cell Version 2 from getting to Android 18. The  S.H. Figuarts Tien Shinhan Action Figure  depicts Tien Shin Han during the Vegeta Saga and hence the move that he is pulling off here is the Tri Beam and not the Neo Tri Beam. This move is always done with Tien hovering over his enemy and firing from the top down. Sadly, this figure does not come with the display stand so you will have to purchase an extra one if you wish to pose him hovering in ...
