Musings of an Inkd Geek

My S.H. Figuarts Bemular from the Netflix anime series arrived last week. I had a few days to take photos and play with it, and then the whole Coronavirus thing started to get serious, so I was focused on that. But now, my weekend has come and I can get back to thinking about this figure. It's really good. Great articulation, nice details and paint, and good accessories make it a winner. Let's dive in. As you may or may not know, Bemular shares his name with the very 1st monster that Ultraman fought in the debut episode of the sixties series. However, the similarities end there. This Bemular is an alien being in an armor-like suit. He somewhat resembles Alien Borg from Ultraseven and Alien Groza from Ultraman Mebius. His sleek design is quite nice, from the armored plates on his arms and legs, to his blue eyes and light on his chest. His feet end in narrow stumps, which is different than most other character designs. The one drawback...

While at Walgreens, I came across this figure from Marvel Legends. The White Rabbit, Dr. Lorina Dodson. She's a villain dressed as a rabbit, similar to a Playboy bunny, with a painted rabbit face, long blue coat, and her umbrella weapon. She looks pretty cool. Her only accessory is her umbrella, which has a blast effect at the end. She has no extra hands. Her face paint is nice and clear, the bow tie around her neck is a loose piece. Her long jacket is a semi soft plastic. The sculpt of her fuzzy boots and the texture of her hair are nice, and is also soft plastic. She even has a clock around her waist. Details and paint are nice and clean. Her articulation is decent. The head is on a ball joint and move can around, look far down, but not too far up as the hair in back impedes it. The shoulders move out and around, the wrists have joints to move around and inward / outward motion, and the elbows are not double jointed. ...
