You’re right. Posing the cape better does help a bit. I was a bit too hasty to get this review done, short on time, and running into some technical issues in the background which led to me overlooking it unfortunately. Thanks for pointing it out!
It looks like Big Bad Toy Store and Amazon still have Yamato available if you're looking to pick it up amzn.to/4dSIcQL www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/240409?o=3
Hopefully they do a reissue of the figures since some of them are pretty hard to get now. Maybe there will be an announcement at Jujufest this weekend if we're lucky 🤞
As someone who has started reading Hellboy last week, I'm very happy with the reissue. It looks very good and seems to age very well. It's very impressive. I'm definitely interested in the reissue, especially after your video. Thanks for the great review video. 🔥✌
Thank you for the thorough review!! When I saw it on the figure store in my area I got excited but the price shook me 😂 seeing it up close he doesn't look that good looking compared to the regular banpresto figures.
I’d only sculpted with clay twice before this, but I found it to be really enjoyable and relaxing. Kaiju No. 8 seemed like a good excuse to sculpt again since the mask didn’t need to match the texture of the rest of the kaiju suit. Also this method gives me the option to cast more than one if I ever want to sell some in the future or cut one up to have the half mask look he has at times. I also started to get a bit burnt out with cosplay stuff after finishing Buu so even though foam and foam clay probably would have been quicker, I think this ended up being a bit better for my mental health and was more creatively fulfilling.
Goddam, even 50$ knockoffs are gone, and I was thinking of taking one of these or not, now Im forced to buy a 100$ one without even all accessories included lol
@@DeductedSpy The 30th anniversary version will come with the horns, sword, and a shirt for him to wear. (I put some links in the description to places that have it for preorder) The original exclusive version also came with the horns and sword (that’s the one I have in the video). The original regular version didn’t include the horns or sword. At some point there was another exclusive version that came with a BRPD shirt for him, but I don’t remember where that was sold at. For the bootlegs, it probably just depends on the bootleg listing.
No one forces anyhing. I think these days, the collectible market is highly inflated due to the new generation of "Nerds" who just buy anything. If you think a product doesn´t match your expectations, you are allowed to just NOT buy it. The manufacturers would notice if more people did that!
