I managed to squeeze out one final review before the end of the year! Here's my review of Amazing Yamaguchi Deku:Revoltech Amazing Yamaguchi Izuku Midoriya: Full Cowling!
I think the eyes and the line above them doesn't look as sharp as in the promo pics. Otherwise I'm still really excited. If anyone runs into good guns for the Knight please post here.
Arkham Knight is looking good! I do feel like in some photos/poses it looks like he's got an abnormally long/tall torso. Also thinking having a second one to display as Red Hood would be cool but lack space says otherwise. Haha. Definitely looking forward to this one.
So... the Knight, huh? First thing I noticed was that Revoltech used a soft rubber on a small peg for the sideskirts. That's like the one thing they could never manage. All the Revoltech joints are fine, but my main first experience is that sideskirt falling off when moving the figure. Other than that he seems as great as expected. I adore the design and this is the best sculpt out there right now. With better QC and guns he'd be the first contender for my favourite figure of the year. But I appreciate the original melee weapons as compensation, they work great for the Knight and Red Hood respectively. Other companies would've only included the bare hands after being denied the guns. The day Revoltech gets their QC in line they'll become my favourite Manufacturer without contest. But alas...
...huh. I mean, I'll buy him, I like Hawks. But that's leapfrogging a whole helluva lotta characters.
