Think of the poor Japanese child who had to slave away ten hours a day to create a beautiful booty for his Burai statue.

Yeah, I'm ready to pre-order this guy, but they have been silent.

And when they release ToQ6, there is no reason not to release the Go-Ongers

They need to complete the current teams first.

OH yeah, and do the teams that don't suck first. :p

I didn't really pay much attention to his release so hadn't seen anything, but this is easily a contender for the worst of the 50 odd Figuarts I own.

The grey plastic used looks really cheap and nasty, the scarf won't peg in very well (and the plastic already looked stressed getting it out the box, so I'm hesitant to force it), the hand joints keep falling apart and the some of the hands have holes that are too big to fit neatly over the joints. I can't believe that this is a figure that only came out November last year. At least OOO has the excuse of being older.

I'm not TOO disappointed since I paid about 1000 yen for him, but if I'd got him on release I'd feel majorly disappointed.

Yeah, his quality sucks ass. I had the head on mine fall off a few weeks back with half of the peg stuck in the neck and the other half stuck in the head. His legs became loose as hell and the scarf would not stay in. I bought a new one and sent that one back to Amazon as a return but the scarf does not stay in even on the new one. No leg or head issues though, which is good.

Nippon Yassan says the 28th so about 3 more days.

I LOVE Gaim.

Got to agree. My ZX is also terrible. QC is terrible on basically all of them. Looser hips than any other figure I can think of.

ZX scarf...worst ever

06-25-2014 08:30 PM

I haven't experienced the looseness issues, but yes, ZX's scarf is crap. Falls out easily on mine, and it looks like I'm already stressing it where it connects to the neck.

Hi all, newbie here.

I'm glad I read these comments on ZX's quality. Almost got him on release a while back.

Gaim figures are fantastic, got Zangetsu just this week. They make fruit themed samurai believably badass.

Also, am disappointed at the lack of announcements of Kiwami arms, but I hope this means we get a gorgeous representation of the form in November!

...As a regular release with an appropriate number of weapons. lol

Starscreamer

06-25-2014 11:15 PM

I have one major issue with Figuart Gain. One of his hips is crazy loose...but got both him and Baron...omg that bonus display!!!!

Den-O

06-25-2014 11:19 PM

Just got to crack open Zangetsu and I have 2 minor complaints for this otherwise excellent toy.

1) He's more beige/off white than white. But I guess that's okay. It looks more white in photos than I feel like it does in hand.

2) The Musou Saber holster is fucked up. On Gaim it was a little off center, snug fitting. But on Zangetsu I can barely, just barley and very snugly get the saber in there. So much so that I can barely get it back out.

I just noticed... but my Gaim figuarts has his right toe hinge just a wee bit curved up instead of being straight flat. I tried shaving in between where the hinge to see if it's left over plastic but that didn't help, I think it's just some extra layer of plastic or something.

It's not entirely noticeable but it becomes a bother when you can't really fix this minor nit pick.

For Zangetsu, the hip and ankle joints are loose. The holster for his musou sabre appears to be fixed though; it's a pretty snug fit.

I could probably pass. I like to own the occasional villain but honestly none of the Overlord designs hold me enough to want to own something physical of them. They're pretty cool designs but I just don't know that I'd "need" them you know?

On the subject of villains, I'd buy up ALL of the Deboss Army if they made them.

I was just about to ask this same thing. So is NY just going to email me when my item has shipped with the tracking number or are they going to let me know that it is preparing shipping? Do they usually mail it the same day they get it (so on the 28th)?

Yeah, he is by far one of the worst Figuarts ever.

Yeah, I don't even bother. In fact, I should have kept the scarf from the defective one when I returned him to Amazon just in case.

Honestly, if it weren't for Zx being a main rider, and the only one we'll ever get, I would have passed on him.

Great looking figure, good accessories, metal chain FTW, but unfortunately a poorly designed toy.

For anyone wanting the release dates for July:

Leangle - the 12th
Roborider - the 19th
Flame Effect Parts - the 19th

So I went and opened my ZX after reading all your comments, his scarf is already stressing at the neck D:

Strongly considering picking up Knight Survive right now.

And to a lesser extent, Figma Wing Knight just so I have a regular version. Of course I know that as soon as I do either and thus run out of money, a decently priced SHF Knight will pop up somewhere. Because that happened last week.

I haven't got ZX yet, but I plan to get him to finish up my Showa collection. I don't play with my figuarts, I keep them in one pose on display and that's it. As long he looks the same as the suit in the shows and movies, that's what I care about.

XW1n5t0nX

06-26-2014 01:17 PM

ZX is one I do plan on picking up due to my love of the suit. Honestly I don't really mind if he's loose or if the scarf has problems staying in. I just put them in a pose and shelf them immediately, so it's not like these are huge problems for what I plan to do with him.

Hey guys just in case, Gaim is back in stock on amiami:

I'm glad this conversation about ZX came up, I was actually planning on getting him soon. Sounds like I'd be better off putting that money towards something else!

I'll likely break down and get Knight at his current rapist price, if my soon-to-be new job holds to it's current wage. The Figma is nice, but the QC and addition of Darkwing and articulated Dark Visor just warrants a matchup of Knight in both forms.

Yes, seems that way unless there's a late addition.
