Sounds like guys can go halfsies on a set. I've done it with the black/pink Kyoryuger set and the black/blue Boukenger set

The main problem being tracking down a reasonably priced set (or not, as I haven't actually committed any time to searching). And deciding who gets the combination weapon parts (again, or not; I only want blue and his immediate accessories).

I've just opened my Blue Beet so I may as well share my thoughts on him too. Sculpt-wise he's pretty much perfect in every way. The moulding is flawless and the metallic colours look superb (thank god there's no chrome). Same goes for the detailing on the accessories.
There are problems though, both in the QC and the articulation. Like Den-O might has the Input Magnum pad glued on crooked, which kinda sucks but thankfully isn't too noticeable. I've also had trouble balancing mine, but its not the ankles that are the issue, it's that the range on those hips is miniscule. I get that they didn't want to compromise the sculpt with swing-down hips, but he really could have benefitted from the extra bit of motion.

Thanks! Very informative and only made me more excited to get mine (hopefully tomorrow)!

Mine's flawless in paint, but the hindered articulation in the legs is really disappointing. Makes me feel better about missing out on the rest of the B-Fighters though.

Mark me in the column as one whose BB has flawless paint. The only issues I have are the universal balance and hip articulation.

It's funny; I wouldn't consider splitting a set because I keep the boxes. (Not for display; it's purely about having an organized place to store the itty-bitty accessories.)
Kyoryu Red alone is very inexpensive, and he's a well-executed figure with great accessories. I paid way, WAY too much money for the rest of my Kyoryugers, and I'm happy with them: terrific accessories and MOSTLY perfect hands for those of us who just need to replicate their roll call. The one thing they can't do is their initial roll call pose of arms crossed directly in front of their bodies, but not many Figuarts can do that. I wish he (and the other Kyoryugers) came with a hand for holding the zyudenchi in a "brave in!" pose. The existing hands trouble me: I like that they have the right details for the Kyoryugers, but since they were designed at a slant, bending the wrist straight back is blocked. (The zyudenchi thing is a common Figuart complaint for me; I'd have loved for the Gaim figuarts to have included a hand to hold up a lock seed in the typical "show the audience a lock seed before switching them out" pose.) |
