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 release. Some rarer Guyver figures like Guyver III or the two Zoalords do pop up once in a while on Amazon.com or Ebay.com.



I reckon that to complete the Guyver figures collection from the Bio Fighter Collection series starting from scratch today would cost you somewhere around USD$4000 or more. 


These Guyver Figures are no longer in production but there is a new series of Figma Guyver figures which was released but I am not sure if we will ever get to see such a line-up with so many figures as the Bio Fighter Collection Series.
True collectors familiar with the Guyver Figures in the Bio Fighter Collection would be quick to point out that I am missing two more Guyver Figures and hence this is not a 100% complete collection.

 
 
Here they are still mint in box. The Guyver I Image Head Figure and the Guyver III with Dark Blades. It's a pity that the Guyver III's box has gotten yellowish over the years. The one I have on display is the Guyver III with Clear Blades which glow in the dark while the Guyver III with Dark Blades was a second release. They both look great!

I hope I have managed to share my love for these Guyver figures with you. They are really nice to look at and I hope you would be interested know more about these characters.

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...
