Overall nothing major to complain about here. Articulation is great, effect pieces are fantastic and I wish we would get stuff like this with more releases.

He's alright. Aesthetics are fine, articulation is ok, accessories are lacking.

Some shooting effects would have been great and the opaque visor makes photography kinda tough. Should have definitely been clear plastic imo.

This slender and simple design is kinda peak Yamaguchi.

After Hobby Genki cancelled my orders (4th and 5th pbandai order this year already, what's going here?), I finally managed to get these two locally.

​

They are fine. Aesthetically they look great. Articulation is nothing special but you'll get most poses you'd want with these.

​

The lack of accessories however is ridiculous. No flower for Reze and not a single explosion effect for Bomb. It's honestly comical with how little they come in the box...

So after having both the Kamione and the DF in hand, I personally prefer the Kamione.

​

I think DF has the better proportions and the better big bang kamehameha and the colour scheme is more anime accurate while the Kamione seems to be based on the FighterZ Gogeta base colours.

​

But in terms of articulation, joint design and faces, Kamione smokes DF imo.

​

The DF unfortunately has barely any ab crunch range and those gappy knees are super unsightly.

​

The ankles just have ball hinges with straight pegs on both ends and no ball peg above the blue wraps, so the only good range you get from the feet is the rocker.

​

I'm happy to have both in the collection cause each have their strengths but overall I'd definitely recommend Kamione more.

Not the biggest fan of that hinge like ab crunch, especially because it barely has any range, and the lack of effect parts is disappointing as always but the rest here is pretty great.

As the title says. It definitely has some issues. Some joints are too loose, some are too tight. The articulation is surprisingly great though once you figure out all the joints in the legs and the accessories are incredible.

Overall I'm quite happy with this.

Articulation, aesthetics and accessories, everything here is fantastic.

The only thing I gotta complain about is the stand for the big bang kamehameha.

They put a suction cup at the bottom of it which sounds like a great idea but it's neither strong nor big enough to hold up that heavy effect piece. Don't overcomplicate it and just throw a big round base in 😭

Still very excited for the DF version though and can't wait to compare the two.

The package or rather shipping bag was still sealed so this didn't happen during transport or in customs. The boxes were also pretty beat up but I luckily couldn't find any damage or issues with the figures themselves.

I'm thinking they might have gotten their stock with damaged boxes and they opened them up to check the contents but still very frustrating to receive them like this.
