SHFiguarts (Shinkocchou Seihou) Ultraman Tiga Multi-Type Review
Head
The contours are almost the same in the play, and the slightly asymmetrical parts and the unique dents on the head are reproduced without any discomfort. The eyes are made of clear parts and the inside is moderately cloudy. The shining color was also natural.
Body
It seems that it is based on the 3D data of the suit actor, and the proportions and forms are the same as the suit in the play. The width and thickness of the fuselage are the same as the impression in the play. The details are precisely reproduced and the color shape of the color timer is also real. The fine wrinkles and the deflection of the suit surface were faithfully reproduced. The texture is also good because it is completely painted.
Arms and Legs
Suit of SHFiguarts Ultraman Tiga Multi-Type is fits the body, so the body is slender. The form where the muscles are not so noticeable is just like the image. However, this time the chest and abdomen are made of soft material, and when opened, it was a little sticky and it was easy for dust to stick to it. Movable can swing big on both neck and waist, and shoulders can be raised as it is. Ultraman Tiga elbows and knees can also be bent deeply.
The hip joint can be pulled out a little and moves widely back and forth and sideways, and the ground contact is not particularly good, but it was at a sufficient level. This time the shoulder is a click joint and can be pulled out several steps before it clicks. However, if you bend the arms to the limit with the arms extended forward , the soft materials on left and right sides of the chest will bend and the paint will peel off, so it seems better to move the arms while paying attention to the soft materials on the chest. The one taken after the arm crossing pose in front of the ray). By the way, the abdomen is also made of soft material, and even if it is bent to the limit, the paint did not come off, but it will become wrinkled, so it seems better not to leave it bent for a long time.
Accessories
Replacement color timer that turns red as usual is also included. Zeperion ray effect is painted from the top of the clear parts. Usually with SHF Ultraman. The real feeling is further increased by becoming the true value, but it may have been better not to use soft materials.
Movability and Articulation
As mentioned above, the range of movement is quite wide, so you can reproduce realistic poses like in the play. The silhouette is beautiful and it looks like there are actually people in it. Joints are stiff and you can stand on one leg. The color timer is also easy to remove, but it was a good salt plum that did not porori. The soft abdomen allows you to bend deeper than normal SHF, but this area is a little complicated because it affects the paint film. Ultra shield movement. You can also pose to cross the arms in front of the light, but it is better not to do this pose because the paint on the left and right sides of the chest has peeled off at this time. Spread the arms wide and Zeperion rays.
Summary
Since it was based on the 3D data of the suit actor, the suit in the play, such as the proportions, had a high degree of facial modeling and red-blue color reproduction, and the appearance was almost perfect and very cool.
The range of motion is close to perfect when looking only at the range of motion due to the heavy use of soft materials and the pull-out joints, but this time the coating film is weak due to the challenging construction of using the soft materials more than usual. I also have the demerit of becoming, so it seemed that the evaluation would be different depending on the person whether to take that side positively or negatively.
As a review, I tried to reproduce the movement in the play to the level that it would be bad for me to do so far, and as a result, some paint peeled off, but it was specially unreasonable.
