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...

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 t...

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 l...
