Soul of Guys...?Not too shabby though but I have no idea about the character and 11,800 Yen is quite high. I'm still kicking myself for not being able to get that GunXsword Dann of Thursday Maxfactory Action Figure from a while back.  Gold |

Its like retro Tatsunoko/Tokusatsu heroes shows on steriod with really awesome action, good suspense, and top notch animation. But the series didn't wrap up very good, with the story losing a lot of steam and turned generic towards the end, rather than taking the advantages of the good work the first 3-4 episodes it was building up. Very unfortunate...as this show had what it takes to be one of the very best action anime series. But didn't live up to it at the end. About the price of Max Factory's figure....outrageous. |

Gold I had one and it arrived to me broken, and also one of my friends have it and it broke while he was trying to pose it at the same spot where mine was broken, It is an amazing figure but it had weak joints, I'm trying to track one since along time and if I found one I will just keep it in its box |

The first half of the movie (I saw it in movie format, not an episodic show) was unbelievable!! I loved it. But I had to wait about 2 years before the second half was released, and it was such a let-down, at least compared to the first half (and maybe the time difference didn't help). I'd love a figure of Karas (and some of the villains in the movie would be cool too), but not for that price. |

I'd love a figure of Karas (and some of the villains in the movie would be cool too), but not for that price. The movie/OVA release differences are due to the Japan/US release difference. It was in 6 episode OVA format in Japan, but released as a 2-part movie in US DVD (surprisingly cheap). Nothing really got edited out though, other than the opening & ending themes and credits. As for the figure, I'll test my luck. If I see it on sale for 30-50% off, then I might get it. I still like the show, regardless the later half being a let down. |

I guess customers and fans out in Japan don't care about it's huge price tag and are goggling this guy up. I hope this figure doesn't do towards insane prices like Max factory's guyver figures.

yeah it probably will, MF limited productions always seem to do that. They really make top notch stuff. oh and of course the JPs will gobble stuff like that up no matter the price...... toys are big business there and they are obviously use to high priced figures.
