REVIEW SHFiguarts Zenkaizer, Bandai

23 May, 2022

This is a review of Bandai action figure SHFiguarts Zenkaiser from Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger series.

SHF Zenkaiser Review

Unlike the old squadron arts, it has a thick body that is closer to the play, which is similar to the recent rider arts. It features a similar design to the Gorenger.

Head

The eyes are also designed similar to Akaranger, and the visor is reproduced with clear parts. The interior is painted metallic and looks good. The forehead 45 is also precisely modeled and the antenna is sharp. The painting was also accurate.

Body

The body shape is the same as the image in the play, and the relief of the chest is also three-dimensional. The painting of the five-color line of the Gorenger image was also beautiful. Waist circumference. There is no gimmick in the Zenkai buckle.

Arms and Legs

The shoulder armor is also sharply shaped. The thickness of the limbs was just right, and the gold ring was painted without any discomfort. The cloak can be flipped up with a soft material. It could spread out, but it felt like it would return to its original shape soon. Movable is closer to recent rider arts.

The neck does not turn up very much due to the interference of the back collar, but there is no problem with the downturn and the swing of the waist is wide. The shoulders rise high and the elbows and knees can be bent deeply. The hip joint was a pull-out type and moved widely back and forth and sideways, and had high ground contact.

Weaponry and Accessories

Geartlinger, the handle and Gatling gun barrel are movable. With old squadron arts and recent rider arts. The proportions are closer to those of recent riders.

Movability and articulation

With a wide range of movement, the movement of the appearance scene can be reproduced almost as it is. The hardness of the joints was just right. The waist does not turn so deep, but it can rotate about 45 degrees. The hip joint is very flexible.

The cloak is also soft so it doesn't get in the way. If you bend your elbows a little, you can reproduce the movement of putting your hand on the handle while keeping the shooting posture. The grounding property was also quite high. I have only a part of Sentai Arts, but with Red Buster. Confrontation with fake Shinken Red.

Summary

This is the review of SHFiguarts Zenkaiser from Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger. It's been a long time since SHF was a squadron character, but unlike in the past, the proportions and joints are similar to those of recent riders, and it's close to the image in the play.

It was finished. Since it is a new type of joint that can be moved, it moves well without spoiling the appearance, there is no interference of the cloak, and the gimmick of the Geartlinger is reproduced firmly and it was perfect in terms of play. It seems that it sold quite well at the reservation stage, and I would like to see Twokaizer and Stacaesar as well.
