Figma D.Va from Overwatch


My latest box day figure is D.Va from Figma, based on the character from Overwatch. It's a very cool figure with lots of accessories and great joints.


She comes with 2 different heads, one wearing a hat and one without hat and headphones, 3 separate face plates (regular, winking and blowing bubble), a stand, a small drink can with 2 sets of stickers you can attack to the can, a gun, a gum bubble that goes into the mouth of one of face plates, 5 pairs of hands, plus one holding a phone and other making a fingers crossed peace sign, a rack to put the hands on, an extra attachment for the stand, an extra peg joint, and, like all Figma figures, a clear plastic bag where you can store the accessories .



The details on this figure are really nice. The logos on the sides of her legs look really detailed and clean. The paint and the sculpt are really well done.





The articulation is where this figure really excels. The shoulders, upper torso and thighs have quite a range, making for some really great poses. The elbows and knees aren't really double jointed, but they're still quite impressive. You can get her to do all sorts of wild, yoga style poses.




She's in scale with most standard Figma figures and Figuarts, though she is a bit on the shorter side. Still, she fits in well with my other characters.




D.Va is one of those figures that the more you play around with and pose, the more fun you'll have as you'll be pleasantly surprised by all that she can do. This is only my 2nd Figma. The first I got was Goro Inogashira, and while that one is cool, his joints aren't as great (especially his legs). D.Va is easy to pose and can stand well on her own without the stand.





Figma D. Va is a surprisingly solid figure that I'm glad I picked up. There's nothing better than getting a figure and having it turn out better than you anticipated. I've gotten figures that I was really looking forward to, only to be let down by standard or substandard articulation. D.Va, I'm happy to report, is not one of those.




There's not much else to say other than what I already stated. If you're a fan of Overwatch or Figma, I recommend this figure!

Ultraman Omega finale

Episode 25, the series finale of Ultraman Omega aired this Friday. From the very first episode I was hooked, and the series continued to maintain a high quality until the surprisingly emotional end. Sorato (Omega) regained all his memories, learning that he was one of many Space Gazers, who's job is to watch a planet and not interfere with any wars between the species (in Earth's case, humans and kaiju). A space Gazer's job is to observe, study and take notes, to learn from a planet's successes and mistakes, in the hopes of finding the right formula to achieve universal peace. Having returned to his previous role as simply a watcher, Kosei, Ayumu and Sayuki were forced to rely on themselves and their team to defeat the powerful kaiju Zomera. As he continued to watch the battle, Sorato/Omega found himself wrestling with the inactive role he was meant to do and his memories of the friendships he had forged with the others, as well as the examples of human kindness he had ...

S.H. Figuarts Father of Ultra

Last week I received the latest SHF Showa Ultra figure, the one and only Father of Ultra, who made his debut in the series Ultraman Ace. He’s the 1st of the two Ultra related August releases I had pre-ordered (the other being Ace Killer). Father of Ultra is easily recognized by the huge horns on his head. The rest of his body is the standard red and silver color scheme that the other original Ultra brothers have (different colors wouldn’t be introduced until Ultraman Tiga decades later). Bandai did a fine job in capturing his look, much more accurate than the highly stylized Ultra Act version, which made him quite muscular. For his accessories, he comes with 6 pairs of hands (fists, two sets of holding, 2 sets of flat/karate chop, and grappling). He has an extra right flat hand that shoots out his signature beam, called the Father Shot. What makes this different from other releases is that the beam and hand are 2 separate pieces, with a clear plastic peg on the side of the fingers that...

S.H. Figuarts Ultraman Arc

With the release of Tsuburaya's new Ultra series that premiered some weeks ago, we now have a figure of the its from Bandai's S.H. Figuarts line. Upon seeing the promos for the series, I initially thought it would be rather silly and I wasn't expecting much. To my surprise, I'm really enjoying this show. I find it well written, the characters are likable, and Arc has a lot of personality. I haven't enjoyed a new Ultra series this much since Z. So I went ahead and purchased the figure of Arc. It was pretty cheap, and was delivered from AmiAmi earlier this last week. I opted for the plain figure. They also have two other versions of him wearing his armor up for pre-order. The orange Solis Armor version, which is due in October, and the blue Luna Armor, which is due in November. Anyway, Arc resembles Ultraman Orb, especially the shape of his head. He's primarily red and silver, with black on his shoulders, upper chest and neck. He sports a blue crystal in the middl...
