i have seen how members start calling bad names to other members because they dont like a toy or company the other member likes. that is why members get fed up and block them or just dont come back to the thread. if i was a moderator i would delete those posts to keep the peace.

according to HL Pro
"Only 9 pcs left of the 'normal' Izenborg version, , and 55 of the hl pro exclusive fake version"
i think the fake version isn't getting much love

$250 is way too much for poor quality 1/6 scale figure. no matter what the character is.... dude, I paid $240 or $250 for a DX HotToys DX is like their best. packed with accessories, stand, etc etc. you got my point.

I thought everyone was very happy with theirs. and it looks really cool too.

I guess it must be an individual defective unit that may have slipped by the QC and landed in someone's hands.
I can only imagine if there are any other units with defects, they may be overshadowed by the owner's enthusiasm for for his/her favorite character in the form of this figure.
We won't know for sure until more reports and reviews come in.

i agree with you guys $250 is so much specially if you have the original one, they should made an offer if you buy one we will give you a discount on the other version i don't see it as low quality at all its also not high quality its in between, and comparing it to hot toys is way to much guys the collar and the arms armor glue is every where on every unit i saw and talked to the owner about it but its a great figure over all, and im sure every one is more than happy with

It is cool looking but waaaaay overpriced for 200 I got my hot toys die cast ironman ! For 160 I got my t700 terminator endoskeleton from hot toys !
This is priced this high because they want to take advantage of the fans

because it's one of my fav childhood characters. I thought buying the HL-Pro Izenborg will gave me the same good feeling when I bought my EX Gokin Plawres Sanshiro. but there's just something missing, and it's obvious. Tell me why it's so hard to include extra closed fist??? etc.....
I'm not saying it's very bad. I like it a lot, and happy with the purchase. (BUT) I'll be careful next time if I want to buy something from HL-Pro.
And I agree with chogokinabdul %100.

also they took an advantage of the rarity of the character its a simple demand and offer case which make me wonder how much they will ask for metaltech Astroganger

i think HL Pro is planing on releasing another version of Izenborg the colors of the box are different and the information also notice they hide the normal version and kept the limited version box im not sure if im going to buy it again unless if it have more accessories but even with that im not 100% sure

I don't need any need to buy this figure again. It was overpriced for what it is and it has many QC problems that I uncovered quickly after unboxing the one I received. Sure it is a good thing to have a poseable Izenborg figure, yup hurray for that. But I don't ignore the fact that it cost's $200 while being of poor quality. Even the box itself is poorly made and can be crushed easily. Also HL Pro in their infinite wisdom decided to ship the two I ordered not inside a shipping box but wrapped in gift wrap paper.....I am not making this up.
To me HL Pro has a long road ahead to convince me if I should deal with them again. This is just one of the many, many disappointments I've had with this lousy toy manufacturer.

Here are some photos I took with my phone and a quick short review. HL Pro (who really should be called HL Amateurs) have dedicated their toy lineup to Anime characters that are popular in the Middle East. Because they know there is a big market for them among adult collectors. That's actually not a bad business strategy. But the bad part comes when you receive this awesome new toy/collectible that you have been looking forward to for months if not years and you are disappointed with the results. The package and tray are straight forward. Nothing we haven't seen before. But the box itself the toy comes inside of is of the weakest quality I have ever seen for a toy box. Imagine a Kleenex tissue box and you will get the picture. The details on the face and costume are very accurate to the original costume from the show. There are however, a few problems once you have inspected everything further. Notice the black shoulder pads? Any slight movement of the arms and those will fall off easily. They used some sort of glue to attach them but apparently it wasn't good enough to survive the time it took from completing the toy until it reached customers.
This figure has a great feature which is LED lights for the head. I admit it's more powerful than any LED lights I have seen before and it's a cool gimmick for a figure such as this to have. Here you can see some really big problems, that by all accounts a company like HL Amateurs should have been able to avoid. Notice the mold line on the side of the head? I am not talking about the one in the back of the head, because that's where the batteries for the LED light up eyes and the on/off switch. I am talking about the line going up and down where his ear would be. Also notice how the rubber white part of the costume is cut? it's obvious that it was done by hand but in a bad way not in a good way. I don't need to mention the poor paint up on those shoulder pads do I? because I assume those are pretty obvious. HL Pro has a very long way to go to earn my trust as a collector. I know they have their fanboys and people who love them simply because they are releasing licensed characters that nobody else is. I am sorry but I have to be honest and I have to say that, having licensed toys that nobody else is making is not an excuse to make them poorly.
