Jazwares Fortnite Rabbit Raider

Yesterday I picked up the Jazwares Rabbit Raider from Gamestop. It's a character from the Fortnite game.

This is the 1st figure I've ever gotten from Jazwares and I really like it. Great colors, detailed sculpt, very nice articulation and a good amount of accessories make it a lot of fun.

Rabbit Rider comes with 3 different face plates (hockey style Jason-like painted like a rabbit, one wearing glasses, and regular face, known as "Jonesy"). He also comes with a carrot stick harvesting tool that resembles a pick axe made of an Easter basket, complete with a chocolate bunny at one end. He also has a grenade known as a Boogie Bomb, a canister known as Chug Jug, a big easter egg backpack known as hard boiled back bling, and a grenade launcher gun. All of these additions make for a very cool figure.

He's dressed in a pink bunny suit with pink bunny slippers. The hood with ears is removable. He has a harness with 2 grenades on it and what appear to be orange bullets, and a weathered armor pad on his left thigh. The details of the suit are very nice, from the folds and creases, the zipper in the front, and even a little white bunny tail at the back.

The joints are really good. They're nice and tight but not too stiff. He sports a ball joint on the head that gives him quite a range, double jointed knees and elbows, butterfly joints at the shoulders, upper arm and thigh swivel, ankle rocker joints, a ball joint at upper torso, swivel at belly, and wrist and finger joints that allow the hands to clasp onto weapons and such with ease. Those can be a bit tricky to maneuver and get the hang of, but they do the job. The thighs can't kick too far forward, but they can move out quite far (see above).

For his chug jug, there's a slit on the side of it where you can fit his fingers into, and for his big easter egg backpack, it plugs into a hole in his back. He's also able to easily hold other small accessories I own.

He's in scale with average sized Figuarts, so he fits right in with many of my articulated figures. He's a very fun, colorful character that will really stand out on your shelf among your assorted superheroes, monsters and horror & sci-fi characters.

Rabbit Raider is a great figure to own. If you're a Fortnite fan, or just enjoy funny action figures, he's absolutely worth getting.

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
