Ultra Act Ultraman

admin — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 16:35:17 +0000

This is the Ultraman in SH figure art forms, however Bandai called this lined up as Ultra-Act. This will be a good contender for “Revoltech” Kaiyodo. The height is about 16cm, highly articulated and posable.

This look like the best articulated Ultraman figure I’ve seen. Looks good in the cape too..

This is one of the most eagerly waited revoltech figure. Features Professor Layton based on the level 5 Nintendo DS videogame.

This figure will be out on 15 of march this year, will retail for ¥2400 (USD$26).

With this price this is a lot better figure as compare the resin one made last time, with the fraction of the cost also.. Can’t wait for luke figure to complete the collection, although I’m not sure if revoltech is making Luke version.

Dimension Diver Metroid Samus Aran color resin

admin — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 12:18:12 +0000

I actually never heard about Dimension Diver until recently. They produced very nice toys, very small but heavy price tags. Not sure if they are actually big manufacturer or new start up, but hey everyone have to start somewhere. As long as they have high quality and faith in their product, they can be giants. I even remembered back then when Hot Toys used to be very small company.

Dimension Diver Toys are relative small, they come as a kit with unasambled and unpainted ( painted resin with basic color ). Definitely need your savy air brushing skill to turn this into magic. The finish results are awesome. Surprsingly the price is rather scary. It goes up to 355 USD in ebay, perhaps due to its limited quantities. This sucker was sold only on Wonder Festival 2009 in Japan.

These kind of toys sometimes even with money you can’t buy

Bayonetta Receives Perfect Score from Famitsu!

admin — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 11:06:02 +0000

40/40 is the point awarded to Bayonetta, Hideki Kamiya must be proud of this result. Capcom shame on you letting your ace go, and good on you SEGA to publish this game!! as you might know Hideki Kamiya is the person behind Devil May Cry, Viewtifull Joe and Okami too.. Capcom get a little upset when Okami did not sell really well, and clover studio (which is funded by Capcom ) and pioneered by Mr Kamiya must be let go. Then Hideki with other talented friends open up Platinum games. Now if you wonder back at Capcom, why Devil May Cry 4 is not as good as the previous ones is because there are no more Hideki

Anyway got the Japanese Demo for Xbox 360, surprisingly and genuinely I think this game does not deserve to get a perfect score. Whats wrong with Famitsu… !?

I found the movement way too fast and give me a bit of headache when playing it again and again, but then again this game is the only game worth to play right now by SEGA until Ryu Ga Gotoku (Yakuza 3) comes out next year.

bellow are the list of game that ever recieves a perfect score… they are align with Nintendogs at least.. ha ha..

1. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (1998)
2. Soulcalibur (1999)
3. Vagrant Story (2000)
4. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (2003)
5. Nintendogs (2005)
6. Final Fantasy XII (2006)
7. Super Smash Bros. Brawl (2008)
8. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (2008)
9. 428 (2008)
10. Dragon Quest IX (2009)
11. Monster Hunter Tri (2009)
