That Regult looks ace but it's a shame Kaiyodo have lost me as a Revoltech buyer. My last purchase was the Gurren-Lagann and when I opened the box to find out the left leg was loose and kept falling off, I just had enough. I've only started buying Revoltech figurines last year, I have a total of six and everyone of them had a loose joint and heck my VF-1A was missing the V-shpae stand. I don't know if it's just really bad luck on my behalf but yeah six mediocre experiences is enough for me.
Friend picked this up for me the other day; General Grievous from the new Star Wars Clone Wars toy line.
As I mentioned in my previous acquisition post about my newly acquired Clone Trooper I have no previous experiences with the Star Wars figurine line.
Well let me say I'm dissapointed with him. Lack of articulation was the major bummer. The Clone Trooper is chock full of joints (still can't get over how fantastic a figure he is), Grievious on the other hand isn't, no elbow or knee joints. No elbow joints is really annoying when you have his four arms, the lightsabers are in the way of one another, I had to warp and bend his soft plastic arms so the lightsabers don't clash with one another. And speaking of his hands, they don't grasp on to the lightsabers too well, they sort of just "balance" there.
I like my figurines with articulation, that's the real big thing for me. And well I just really can't recommend General Grievious, of course let me just say once again I have no prior experience with Star Wars figurines.
