Mazinkaiser

Fans of old-school mecha had rejoiced with the release/continuation of the Mazinger-Z saga. Mazinkaiser, a seven-episode OVA (Original Video Animation), chronicled the finale of Kabuto Kouji and the Mazinger team as they battle Dr Hell and his Mechanical Beasts.

This is where Mazinkaiser debuted after Kouji's Mazinger Z was forcefully taken from him and was hurled to a place unknown (to viewers, we knew it to be the secret lab of his late grandfather who built Mazinkaiser).

Again, as far as Revoltech figurines go, the production of Mazinkaiser looks faithful to the OVA. There's a generous amount of standard articulation points expected from the Yamaguchi line, and the colours as well as the details are well detailed.

In a nutshell, you won't have any regret buying this Revoltech figurine.

Toosaka Rin

Fate/Stay Night character, Toosaka Rin is another well-sculpted Revoltech Fraulein figurine but with limited pose due to restricted joint movement. Nevertheless, among the poses you can make Rin do, her 'angry' eyes brings out a forboding air to some stances well.

Nice one from the peeps at Kaiyodo. Looking forward to Yoko of Gurren Lagann now... *winks*
