Behind the “Display Only” Tag: S.H.Figuarts 15th Gallery – MCU Iron Man Displays

2023 is apparently the 15th anniversary of Tamashii Nations' S.H.Figuarts line. What started as an improved version of the Souchaku Henshin series, and I assume that's where the "S.H." came from, exploded into a premium figure line covering multiple franchises and properties. To celebrate this milestone, they have dedicated a section of Tamashii Nations Store … Continue reading Behind the “Display Only” Tag: S.H.Figuarts 15th Gallery – MCU Iron Man Displays

Because I’m Not Expecting an HGUC: The Robot Spirits ⟨Side MS⟩ Gundam GP04G ver. A.N.i.M.E.

Last week, we saw the announcement of the HGUC Gundam Development Test Unit 0 (Engage Zero) from Mobile Suit Gundam U.C. Engage. This unit comes from a "fork" of the Gundam Development Project (GP Project) that we're all too familiar with.

Despite looking really goofy, the Special Airborne Armors from Ultraman Z have their charms. So much so that I immediately pulled the trigger when Tamashii Nations decided to release S.H.Figuarts Space Sevenger as I missed getting the original Sevenger. They also released S.H.Figuarts King Joe STORAGE Custom which, for some reason, didn't pique my interest. … Continue reading I Kinda Want One! S.H.Figuarts SC-2 Windom

Placeholder for the HGCE? The Robot Spirits ⟨Side MS⟩ Duel Gundam (ver. A.N.I.M.E.)

As much as I trash on Gundam SEED, one of the things I really liked from the series are the designs of the original five GAT-X machines. They were unique at that time and not the uninspired designs that came after. That's why when Bandai Spirits started introducing the HGCE kits to the HGUC line, … Continue reading Placeholder for the HGCE? The Robot Spirits ⟨Side MS⟩ Duel Gundam (ver. A.N.I.M.E.)

#2008 / S.H.Figuarts / Iron Man Mark 3

Having covered both the S.H.Figuarts Mark 1 and Mark 2 figures, it only makes sense for the first red and gold Iron Man armor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to get the CATALOGUE treatment with the S.H.Figuarts Iron Man Mark 3 as it appeared in the climactic battle of Iron Man. I'm also thinking the … Continue reading #2008 / S.H.Figuarts / Iron Man Mark 3
