Queen’s Throne

Published on June 10, 2010 in Articulated Figure and US Character. 2 Comments Tags: , , .

Zera – Spawn Evolution series #29
Manufacturer: McFarlane’s
Origin: Spawn Comic

Zera, queen of all Cherubim, God’s angel

she’s one of the character that became everyone favorite from the Spawn Comic series
she’s beautiful, extremely violent and the best part: immortal… perfect match for Spawn himself

she looked more gorgeous and calm in figure version, that what make me took this figure in the first time

minimal articulation, but superb details,
just the things that you would expect from the modern Spawn Action Figure series, more like a statue than action figure
she came with a pillar as her stand base, pretty neat design

there are two variants for her, this one and for the other one, she got
a purple armor like-napkin in her chest -_-’

Cadillac Hearse – color variants
Manufacturer: Matchbox

Hearse, the horseless funeral cart
this car is well known as coffins coaches

Matchbox released three variants of this car within a year or so, I’m kinda forget the exact year, but it should be around 2007-2008
the three cor variants are Black, White and Grey

if you ask me, I’ll stick with the Black one thank you, the original one that we could easily see on the streets

um, in one of my family visit to Japan, I saw a different one…
they modified this car into a mini shrine, and when one of my family passed away, while attended the funeral,I got the chance to see the modified car myself
that was the beginning of my interest in chasing these die cast planning to modified them myself, but seems extremely difficult -_-’

this Hearse collection reminds me of my gramps…

SD Zolda

Kamen Rider Zolda – SD Keychain
Manufacturer: Bandai
Origin: Kamen Rider Ryuuki

Kamen Rider Zolda, he came from a kamen rider series that brought more than 10 riders in one series to us

the series itself told us about kamen rider Ryuuki,a rider who trapped in a world where every kamen rider fight each other for their own purpose, the first time ever Sunrise studio make that concept

enough bout the series,this green dude isn’t the main character, but he got a lot of fans who fall in love with his armament, he’s like the Heavy Armour Gundam of the Kamen Rider series

I picked up him just because I already collected some SD gashapon of kamen rider before, but this Keychain version definitely got the BEST details among them…just compare him to the other SD version that already released by Bandai, on the lest is the finger doll gashapon series and on the far right is the snap fit gashapon series
and even for a keychain, it could stand by his own tiny feet

my… what an age we live in :p

Rei Nendoroid?!

Rei Ayanami-Petit Eva Deformation #1 lineup
Manufacture: Banpresto Prize Item
Original Series: Neon Genesis Evangelion

naaaah, it’s not a real Nendoroid of course… but since I got this one when Nendoroid was on a high streak (around late December 2008), everyone saw this photo thought that they finally release Rei in Nendoroid line ;p

kinda obvious that it isn’t right now, but still, just wanna show this Petit version of Rei here

a decent figure, kinda big in size, almost the same size as the regular Nendoroid and the paint job’s not bad either
the biggest problem with this one is, it barely stand by it’s own feet!! even thought Banpresto gave us a specially designed stand to hold her, but it is not good enough, she keep falling by the head first -_-’

well, still a nice addition for Rei collector…

Cutie Carnages

Published on June 8, 2010 in Urban Toy and US Character. 0 Comments Tags: , , .


comic world’s notorious psycho super villain, the Carnage!!
now in way cuter version, heheh…

I like this crazy criminal who covered with red symbiote, one of my favorite character from Stan Lee’s famous comic series

me and hundred  guys out there just love this character from the fist time we saw the radical design and the chaotic attitude,a truly formidable super villains

here’s him in cuter version, not sure bout the left one, but the middle one is a Minimates version and the one on the right is a Japanese gashapon version, one of the best urban design of him in my opinion

guess I’ll review each of them later

SIC Tamashi – Black

Published on June 1, 2010 in Tokusatsu and Trading Figure. 0 Comments Tags: , , .

Kamen Rider Black – SIC Tamashii Vol 7
Manufacturer: Bandai

Kamen Rider, or better know as Masked Rider in the western market, one popular heroes icon series from Japan
and kamen rider Black is one of the most famous rider from the Shouwa era, back then in the 90′s

this trading figure came from the 7th line-up of the series, which is my personal favorite cause there are also Shadowmoon and Ryuuga in the line up, I’ll review them later

this little fellow got superb details, the one that we usually expect from the Super Imaginative Figure (SIC) series
but in my opinion, this 3 inch version is better than the regular 6 inch, it’s because the details in this one are just better
for instance, there isn’t any wing accessories in the regular one, plus the Black’s color is more glossy and accurate on the trading figure

he also got his own bike

while in the regular version, Bandai never release any Battle Hopper yet, only a third party company ever made three version of the bike
well, we have to buy another box and pray if we got lucky and got the battle hopper, but it was worth it
the battle hopper’s details are also stunning, just look at the wheels and the seam line details it got
