alright just finished my work on this figure and here is my final opinion about it
to be honest i noticed right away that the figure looked better in the promo photos i would say about %40 better than the final product
the instruction paper is useless, it doesn't show how to put up the stand, but at least its colorful
the helmet keeps hitting the shoulder parts (poor engineering)
poor plastic joint every where, it really struggle to keep the high kick pose
the figure have some bad assembly here and there, arms falls because the plastic rod wasn't fully attached same with the fist, maybe the did that on purpose ?
the judo robe is really really stupid, you know when your little brother wears your jacket ? exactly, same look, not to mention the belt is a pain to put around
i know Juohmaru skin looks kinda like this in the anime but it wasnt that dark, also the eyes should be darker than the bright sky blue they used
i wont recommend this figure mainly because of the price its alot of money for what you get from it, fair price for it is no more than $65
this figure made me and love all of my 3 Fewture Juohmaru's even more, i know this figure have better articulation but any one of them will just destroy it on every other category
fewture have better design, better quality, better accessories, even the robe is better and over all its %99 more accurate
now im sure it will sound like i hate this figure, but to be honest i dont, i kinda like it mainly because im a huge Juohmaru fan
