Any actual reviews for this? Legs don't seem to have outward rotation but quite understandable given the combining feature. The figure was delayed worldwide so I don't think that reviewers will get it yet.

On the fence because I'd like to see more of its articulation when combined.

That definitely helps in deciding to pre-order.

I thought Bandai already did a Chogokin of Baikanfu?

I thought Bandai already did a Chogokin of Baikanfu? They did, even has a R came out some months ago. But they can't compare with the engineering of POSE+ on this. If you are a fan of Baikanfu and want the ultimate gokin version with better articulation, better sculpt, and bigger size, this would be it.

Very interesting engineering. Pretty much they reverse the thighs and knee bends for Rom and Kenryu for the combination to get more movement out of it. Didn't realize it until this video interview/demo. POSE+ just keep impressing me the more I learn about their work. And surprisingly, some of their team is involved in designing Action Toys' Machine Robo figures, and Lu, the same guy in the video that helmed Baikanfu's design, is also in charge of designing Blue Jet.

So far I've loved every release from Pose+, can't afford a single one but I am VERY impressed by this line and it may actually be the first time in a long time that Bandai has some real competition and in some cases some defeats ala Baikanfu.

I feel the same way. I'm kicking myself for not picking up the first release of Baxinger for the more reasonable $300 range. I'd love to get Baikanfu, but I do not $600 love Baikanfu.

Yep I see why big price difference the size and engineering that went into this Baikanfu definitely the DX version.

I love Baikanfu and am impressed by this release but it’s hard to swallow the huge price tag when I already have three other versions of this. It’d be a lot easier if it’s my first Baikanfu.
Having said that, I did bite on the DX Voltes despite having owned other versions. But something pushed me over the edge on that one.

I haven't been here for a while. I hope everybody's been fine. I picked up my Baikanfu today, and despite the price range, this is a truly awesome piece and a definitive Baikanfu indeed. Most of what you're about to pay or paid for goes to the amount of engineering and passion that goes into designing this thing. Absolute stunning. Of course, buying this means you will have to cater to your woman at home and get ready for 'the stare' and the little jabs that comes with it A small price to pay for this baby~ Feel free to check out more through my Discord server as well! discord.com/channels/734027702037774367/734173370643644426/792082969916342283

Still salivating at this but I decided to buy coilovers for one of my cars instead. 😂 Too many bills at end of year too. If it’s available after month or two I’ll buy this Baikanfu. Like others have said I have couple Baikanfu not sure I need 3rd one.
