Well hot damn! Guess I'll have my work cut out for me doing the full Arms Changes in the eventual Kiwami gallery.

Dang they look sweet, hopefully the markup on them won't be too bad. Got a fresh pine lockseed today, anyone else find it very hard to close once open?

It just came to mind at peach the female rider we had in show and not movie exclusive

Got my SHF Gaim today. Little bit disappointed.

The detail and paint is gorgeous, and from afar or on my shelf, he looks really great. Up close though all the stickers in the place of actual paint looks really cheap and obvious and then when you pick him up you'll be shocked at the light, cheap feeling plastic.

I much prefer the weight and solidity found in the ACs, and they may lack the refined paint of the SHF but they also lack those awful looking stickers.

"All" the stickers? There's like two. And one of them is on the Musou Saber.

That said, to each their own. We all look at figures from different perspectives. I personally think it has a nice heft to it with all the plastic used for the armor. Almost comparable to figures blessed with diecast feet because of it, honestly. While the plastic used isn't thick, durable "play toy" material like I assume the AC figures are, (I wouldn't know, seeing as I don't own any) it's about on par with the Figuarts standard.

Got my first Arms Change figure today and it was none other than Duke! Have to say, it is nice to have an action figure that you're not afraid will break on you if you use a little too much force. Definitely lots of fun!

One thing that has turned me off of figuarts for the most part is that they may be beautiful, but they aren't toys. I'm afraid they're going to break when I handle them and I've heard stories about broken wrist pegs etc. I personally like toys to be toys, the more accurate they look, the better, but I still want to be able to play and futz with them without worrying about needing to buy a replacement.

I've personally had 3 figuarts break on me, and 2 of them were poor handling on my part (and easily fixed problems that haven't occurred again).

And here's your clear shot of AC Kiwami Arms, wearing Orange Arms. Looks like the pointy tip of his hat at least sticks around. But it would seem the cape and chest/shoulder panels are removed to accommodate this.
