Revoltech Yamaguchi No. 60 Enki

For my second review, here's Viral's Ganmen, Enki. I got it a week after release XD

Bought in: Some shop in China Square Central

Price: $22

Release Date: 15-Sep-08

First impression: The moment I took it out of the box I knew it would be an awesome figure. The sculpting was perfect, and if you didn't know it was from Gurren Lagann, you'd think it was an Eva unit.

Poseability: Same as the Gurren Lagann, only problem is, the joints connecting the arms to the main body are connected to a panel on the back (it doesn't attach from the side). Quite a bit of a problem when I do part-switching (e.g. Gurren Lagann arms to the Enki, Lazengann arms, etc)

but still great overall. All joints are connected via Revolver, so great articulation and poseability.

Appearance: True to the original. The paintjob is nice, nothing out of place, no blotches, nothing. Simply awesome.

Additional stuff: The figure comes with a pair of swords, shoulder-mounted launchers and another launcher for the face part, which attaches through the "eyebrow" Revolver joint.

Overall: 9/10. As earlier stated, the torso joint is this figure's only bad point.

CROSS COUNTER!

Revoltech Yamaguchi No. 58 - Gurren Lagann Fulldrillized

Took me long enough to get it up, but here it is! The Gurren Lagann Fulldrillized, my first Revoltech Yamaguchi figure.

Bought at: Xeno Hobby, Sunshine Plaza (it was the last they had there :P)

Price: $30 D:

Ph33r m4h p01n+1n355.

First impressions: Pointy. Do note that the pointy tips of the drills are actually sharp (Something I learned the hard way by accidentally laying my hand square onto it). The figure is POINTY. POINTY, pointy, pointy. Whatever you say, it's pointy. Extremely.

Poseability: The Revolver joints are a nice gimmick to the figure, although they do take time to get used to (imagine my shock when I heard clicking sounds when I tried to pose it). These joints actually enable the Revoltech to be posed in many different ways. (by the way, they don't come off so easily)

Appearance: This is basically your standard Gurren-Lagann, except with extra drills. (the drills come out when Kamina or Simon uses Circle Spun Driller or Giga Drill Breaker) One sad thing, though, is the fact that you can't attach the Flight Pack found in Enki and Lazengann. Which means I have an extra one. The Gurren's glasses are tinted and translucent, which means you can see the Gurren's eyes through them. 

Additional stuff: The Gurren-Lagann Fulldrillized also goes with three sets of extra hands (one set open hands, one set pointing, one set for holding [sunglasses]). It also comes with the huge sunglass-boomerang used during [Hissatsu! GIGA DORIRU BUREIKA!], an extra Gurren faceplate, and extra head [figure comes with the angry head attached, and the additional is the standard face.]. As with most Revoltech figures (or not), it comes with a stand.

Overall: 9/10. I would have given it a 10 had it allowed for the Flight Pack to be attached to it. Overall, though, it's a great figure and was worth my money.

Irasshaimase!

Welcome to my blog. Here I will review different figures related to mecha anime, ranging from Gundam Plamo to Revoltech figures, and other non-mecha figures.

My first review will be the Revoltech 058: Gurren Lagann Fulldrillized version, which will be posted when I get  photos of it.
