Bandai Tamashii Nations S.H. Figuarts Son Gohan "Dragonball Z" Action Figure Review

We have already started to take for granted the high quality Dragonball Z toy figures from the S.H Figuarts line. The S.H. Figuarts Son Gohan was one of the earliest to be released in the line and at one point of time the price rose to over $200. Thankfully, with a re-issue, the price has recovered back to an acceptable range of less than $40 so it is a good chance to get it for collectors late to this line.



Paint-job is excellent and the details are incredible. There are shadings on his hair, belt and shoes so it really looks great and the resemblance to the character from the anime is uncanny. The only drawback is that some may find him too small standing at about 5 inches from the tip of his hair to his foot. 


The S.H. Figuarts Son Gohan comes with 2 interchangeable heads to depict his transformation between Super Saiyan 1 and Super Saiyan 2. He has 4 extra faceplates and even though most of them portray Gohan in his serious expression but one of them is more comical for some light hearted poses.The S.H Figuarts Son Gohan also comes with the Namekian Cape from Piccolo when he completed his training in the Room of Spirit and Time.


Articulation wise, there is nothing you cannot do with the S.H. Figuarts Son Gohan so just go ahead and let your imagination run wild. But one of the complaints is that his arms are abit loose and they come off too easily so it might be a bit frustrating when you pose him. 

The S.H. Figuarts Son Gohan has a rating of 4.4/5 on Amazon with 103 customer reviews. Here are some of the things other collectors are saying about this toy figure
  • My son loved this well made action figure
  • Must buy for collectors of DBZ
  • Consider me a satisfied customer
  • If you want a Son Gohan I recommend this! It came early and it was in perfect shape!

Material(s): ABS, PVC
Original Price: Â¥3200 (41.00USD)
Release date: July 2010
Height: 110 mm (4.3 in)

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...

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...

Aptom Ver IV Action Figure- Max Factory Guyver Bio Fighter Collection 02 Review

Written by Jax. Pics Courtesy of Donnay In my opinion, the Aptom  Figure from Max Factory Bio Fighter Collection Toy series is one of the most underrated figures in this series. Packaging is the same as the previous release of Guyver III , therefore, no cuts or tears are needed to the box to get the Aptom Figure out. The  Aptom figure  comes with interchangeable fists, palm and hold (right side only). It also comes with wings, three head parts (normal, beam and missile), bio missles for both shoulders and wrists. One thing to note though is that there is a slight difference between the wings shown in the stock photos and the actual  Aptom figure .The wings in the stock photos look like they are white, with black lines highlighting the veins on the wings but the actual product looks like the one below, yellow wings. I think that the ones in the stock pictures look better and more realistic, but it's not a big enough difference to irritate me. Posing t...
