Griffon – Ryoufu Housen

April 26, 2009

Posted in: Figures - Japanese

This is the second figure in my collection. First one was Yamato’s Kanu Uncho. And both figures are from Ikki Tousen . This was an impulsive buy. I don’t really hate it, but I don’t think it’s great.

Do I have the worst luck ever? The first two figures I bought are the worst two figures I have in terms of production. Mainly due to the concern of UGLY seam lines, which I will show later.

I noticed after taking pictures that the base is very dusty, lol. I didn’t even notice the dust until I was looking at the pictures on my computer. And yeah…I got lazy and just shot this figure anywhere in the house.

In terms of scale this is my largest figure, but in terms of actual size this is quite small. The scale says 1/6 but this should be a 1/8 compared to other figure manufactures.

Now I will show you the seam lines. I thought Griffon was a good company because of their crazy resin kits. I could be wrong but my figure has the ugliest seam lines ever! Just letting you know that this figure is real, not bootlegged.

It is like every limb has a very ugly seam line!

This is a nice figure of Ryoufu but I feel like something is missing. Yes, the seams are ugly. I feel that the face is kinda empty. But, in terms of the overall presentation, the figure seems plain and boring. Nonetheless, I think this is one of the better Ryoufo figures in terms of representation.
