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.
