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!

S.H. MonsterArts King Kong '21

The next May pre-order to arrive is S.H. MonsterArts King Kong from the Godzilla vs. Kong film. I was psyched to get a highly articulated Kong from Tamashii Nations, and the great ape is finally here. Kong is a little shorter than Godzilla (just like in the film). The details of the sculpt are all well done. Tamashii Nations did a good job capturing his look well, from his hair covered body to a few scars on his chest. His faces, including his eyes and teeth on the open mouth head, as well as his axe, are all well painted. The only issue is that they seemed to have gone with a glossy finish, so he seems too shiny, especially on his face and chest. A duller matte shade would've suited him better. At least it would've kept him from looking like he over-moisturized. As for his articulation, he's quite flexible. His head is on a ball joint, ball jointed neck as well, ball jointed shoulders and thighs, upper arm cut, single jointed elbows and knees that go in further than 90 deg...

S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla 1991 Shinjuku Decisive Battle version

The latest Godzilla figure I pre-ordered from the S.H. MonsterArts line has arrived. It is the 1991 Shinjuku Decisive Battle version, to go along with the Mecha King Ghidorah release from earlier this year. While the suit is almost the same as the one used in 1989's Godzilla vs. Biollante, they made some slight adjustments. Compared to the BioGoji figure, this one is much thicker, therefore, he does look different from that other release. His sculpt is the classic 90's era Heisei look, with small head, thick thighs, large dorsal spines and a long tail. Like all the other Godzilla suits of that decade, he has a cat-like face, both cute and menacing. While the King of the Monsters has had multiple looks throughout his 50+ years, it's the Heisei era that seems the most iconic. Artwork, toys, comics, etc, have all utilized this particular design. Similar to the 89 suit, this 91 figure has a small set of dorsal spines, followed by a much larger one, and then gradually getting sm...

S.H. Figuarts Ultimate Ageis/Ultraman Zero Armor option parts set

Earlier in the week I received my S.H. Figuarts Ultimate Ageis/Ultraman Zero Armor option parts set. I was busy with work and doing other reviews, but I finally got around to checking these out. They turned out to be pretty cool option parts. Ultimate Aegis is a set of armor created by Ultraman Noa . My initial thought was that they may be a bit of a hassle to attach to the Ultras. They ended up being fairly easily to swap out and put on them. The only issue I had was with the large piece (Final Ultimate Zero) that Ultraman Zero holds. I was having trouble getting his arm peg into the fist (it’s attached to the piece). Then I realized that I had on his forearm with his bracelet, so I swapped out the regular forearm without the bracelet and it went in easily. For the ultimate Zero Sword, each hand piece comes with its own fists, a red (for X) and blue (for Zero). The top of the fist has a peg that attaches to the piece, and then you ...
