Toy Review: Hot Toys Star Wars Chewbacca (Chewie) Sixth Scale Figure

When Hot Toys announced that they have obtained the license for Star Wars and were going to produce Star Wars Sixth Scale toys, I was pretty excited. There were already several toy companies producing Star Wars toy figures in Sixth Scale, but the one thing they couldn't get right was the face. Hot Toys being well known for producing facial sculpts very close to the actual actors/actresses their characters were based on, certainly got my expectations up.

I was never really a big fan of Chewbacca or Chewie as he is affectionately called by his friends, the most prominent of which is his partner in smuggling, Han Solo. That was until I saw the Hot Toys Star Wars Chewbacca Sixth Scale Figure. I think there are not many good Chewbacca toys on the market and the Hot Toys version really set the bar very high.





Just look at the fur and sculpt on this guy. That in itself sets it apart from all the rest of the Star Wars toy figures in the market. We have had many versions of Darth Vader, many of them worthy of collection, but have we ever had such a great figure of Chewbacca? I don't think so.

The Hot Toys Chewbacca Sixth Scale figure is THE BEST in the market, in my opinion.









Sideshow Collectibles and Hot Toys fans can expect to see a large collection of high-end collectibles from the iconic Star Wars saga coming soon! With Hot Toys’ acquisition of the right to manufacture collectibles for the Star Wars universe and the official reveal of the 1/6th scale Han Solo Collectible Figure, we wouldn’t forget about Han Solo’s trusty sidekick, the legendary Wookiee – Chewbacca.

Jax Woon's Collection - Rare Guyver Figures 100% Complete Collection in Glass Display Cabinet

I just moved to my new house and finally got a proper toy display cabinet for my toy collection. The centre-piece of my collection is of course the Guyver anime figures from the Maxfactory Bio Fighter Collection Series. I have had many friends coming over to my place and commenting that these Guyver Figures look very nice but they had no idea who these characters were. If you do not already know them and are a fan of anime, I highly recommend that you purchase the Guyver Anime: Complete Box Set [Blu-ray] from Amazon.com to get to know them. It is just 26 episodes so it will not take up a lot of your time to start a new anime series. I consider myself lucky to have been able to complete the collection way before the prices sky rocketed in the secondary market. Just doing a quick search on Ebay and you will find that the average listed price for the Guyver Figures is about USD$200 to USD$400 per figure meaning the prices have more than tripled from the time of relea...

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...

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. ...
