San diego Comic-con 2011 hauls
so I went to San Diego Comic-Con last month. I've always had a love/hate relationship with the con: I love it since it's here in my hometown of San Diego. I hate it since there's a huge influx of people coming that don't really care about things and hog the spotlight from people that real deserve to be there. That's a different story for a different time, we are here to talk toys and I got some at the con that are awesome:
here we have the figures:
-S.H. Figuarts Shadow Moon from Kamen Rider Black
-Batman Legacy Batman Arkham City Batman and Two-Face
-SDCC exclusive DC Universe Swamp Thing
Shadow Moon:
a figure i've been waiting for 2 years. Finally, I have all 3: Black, Black RX and Shadow Moon. The sculpt on him is amazing, the details are great, like the heel things on his.. um.. heels. His joints where a bit loose, but I fixed it using a bit of Pledge Future shine. One of the best figuarts made, but i'd only recommend it if your got Black or Black RX to pit him against.
Batman Legacy Arkham City Batman
as Part of the 2 pack with Two-face based on the upcoming game. It's a nice mold and the articulation is great. One thing I like is the mold has these groves on his body that look like his kevlar pattern on his body, so it looks very good. Only problem I have is the chest area is a bit big, so his arms are not articulated inwards as much.
Batman Legacy Arkham City Two-Face
another great sculpt taken from the game. Only major gripe is that the figure comes from a line where even suits have that cut joint ball joint on suited characters (The Question, Joker ect.) and they didn't bother giving that to him. Sad.
DC Universe Classics Swamp Thing
Exclusive to the show. For good reason as well: It's not very articulated thanks to the skeleton inside the body that is constricted by the plastic coat around it. Still, for an exclusive it's really good: it looks great, it's huge and the presentation around it is just as good too. Only for hardcore DC Fans.
