Since the beginning I started collecting saint Seiya figures one figure that I always had in mind was Leo Aioria. Searching endlessly for this figure was one of my priority since I started this collection. It was not the cloth itself but the actual appendix of this figure that drove recruiting and we’re reviewing it today. It is a collector’s dream to have this appendix and his hands, and it’s a great pleasure in honor for me to do this review today.

One thing they always catch my attention of this appendix was the beauty of it all. So as we look at the front of the box we have a shot of the appendix doing the Athena exclamation and a small picture of the figure with the appendix on the background. On the side of the box we see it says saint cloth myth and on the bottom it says Leo Aioria appendix. On the back of the box we have the figure doing many poses and it shows you the accessories the figure has to offer. As we open the inside of the box we see that it has a nice window display and it shows you all the accessories and parts are comes with. On the trim of the box we see on top it says saint Seiya myth cloth and on the bottom it says Leo Aioria appendix.

Looking at the inside of the box we see the instruction Manual and one plate for this figure. On the plate you see it has three faces, one of the screaming face look into the side, and other one is screaming straight forward with red eyes, and the last one is a serious face of the figure. It has replacement parts for the waist, chest shoulders, and arms for the original myth cloth which is a really nice addition to this appendix. The instruction Manual is nothing complicated it just shows you how to put the appendix together and how to put it on the figure.

Now assembling this appendix has very easy and when it’s done it’s a work of art. The hair is not dark brown but a gold light brown mix. It fits very well with two figure and the actual faces are very well sculpted. The feeling you get when you’re assembling this appendix is great. The face peace when you put it on the hair in on the face is a total work of art, and just looking at it makes you feel like it’s the actual character in front of you. Now swapping the parts with the actual myth cloth is not very hard. The instruction Manual shows you that you have to assemble the chest, the shoulders, and the waist on the figure. Keep in mind are swapping plastic with metal. At the end the whole upper torso is replaced with plastic parts of the appendix and the only metal parts that are left of the actual cloth are the bicep parts, the waist, and all the legs. Overall the actual cosmetic value of this appendix to this cloth is tremendous. This drastically changes the look of the figure to a more modern Leo Aioria figure. Overall this is a must recommendation for this cloth. Many will debate on why you would have to buy this appendix if the new EX Leo Aioria is coming out this October of the year 2011. I would say to them that this is the cloth and started it all on a myth cloth collection on the year 2004. It would be an injustice to not try to get this figure even after a new figure is coming out. So many people have bough this cloth and one in an improvement and the appendix gave it that. This appendix have been the most sort out appendix in the history of saint Seiya and for you to miss out on one of the greatest appendix that Bandai ever made for this line would be an injustice just because of a new figure.

So I give this appendix a complete 10, it has the looks as the upgrades, and it just has character. This is a definitely must buy and I know they are very limited in number. I even know that this myth cloth appendix in some parts of the world is impossible to get, and that is why this appendix is so special. But I want to thank I Ishop2go for letting me review this appendix today; it has been a great honor.

And remember everybody, go out and buy it.

Saint Seiya Myth Cloth Scylla IO Review

From time to time we have seen animation from the greatest things to the mire disappointments. The time has gone for saint Seiya when it was hitting the Poseidon saga we have seen many characters to this day. One of the most interesting characters that I saw on that saga was Scylla I O. Due to the fact that he is a villain in the series a lot of people did not like this character. But he was one of the greatest fighters on the Poseidon saga. As part of the myth cloth, he is one of the most beautiful myth cloth out there up to date. Now we’re going to review the figure.

As we take a look at the box, we could see that the box is really nicely colored. Has the green marine color to it and you see the picture of the character in the front. You also have the display of the figure all cloth up in the front as well. You have the Bandai logo on the corner and you have the toei sticker in the top. As you see in the side of the box this is a book style kind of package and on the top it says saint cloth myth and on the bottom it says Scylla cloth. And you have a picture of the object mode in the middle. As we look at the back of the box you see the figure doing the pose and he’s doing one of his powers you see many ways this figure is great and you see the figure with and without the face peace. As we open the box in the middle we see two window displays and we see that on the top it says general and on the bottom it says I O. So now that we looked at the box we are going to review what’s inside the box.

The left side has the figure itself and most of the cloth parts. You see the figure with mostly black body and different sets of hands. As we could tell right away the face sculpture is gorgeous, the figure attracts my eyes instantly with a tremendous amount of detail it has. We’re looking at the right side of the box package ally could see most of the skeleton form of the object mode, we also see but the cloth on this side as well. We could see parts of the chest and skirt on the side as well. The Manual is very easy to look at it is not a very complicated instructions. All is numbered and has very easy to follow. One thing that I did find interesting is that a lot of the instructions do not focus on the object mode. Clearly the object mode is one of the most complicated object modes of the built to date. Now let’s put this figure in its object mode.

It sells building the object mode I did notice a lot of parts were very loosely put in place. Object mode is not hard to make but it does take patients. The most difficult part or on the top of the object mode is where you put the chest part of the woman on the top of the object mode. But other than that is a very beautiful object mode. You could see the amount of detail it went into it. The sculpture is great and every part fits to perfection. You could tell there are many kinds of animals mixed on this cloth as if you did not know Scylla is a mix of animals from bat to snake it is very ingenious to include all this parts to the object mode. Overall I give the object mode an automatic 10. You cannot complain of the amount of work and love it went on this figure. But we have spent a lot of time on the object mode. Now we’re gonna move to the figure itself.

As I was putting the figure together I could tell the amount of work is going to be. The chest is divided into halves and is very difficult put on. The chest also includes the bottom part of the waist which has to connect to the top parts of the chest. This was very challenging for me, the amount of effort and time to align the parts is in no question one of the longest I have done. It is very frustrating for the parts to stay in place but most of the time they pop up from each other. As soon as you finish this process you can enjoy the cloth. All the arms are die cast metal with the exception of the plastic parts on the top of the arms. These parts on top of the arms are very sharp so as not recommended for children. The legs as well are all die cast metal and the knees are die cast metal as well. The chest on the top part are both metal and the face piece is plastic as well with the shoulders. The cloth looks tremendous; it has great sculpture and very little defects. One of the selling points that got me attracted to this figure was the face sculpture. The hair of tremendous detail and is very dynamic. From the shoulders to a bottom it looks great and the addition of the wings that he has in the back gives it a great look. The wings are also plastic and they could move up and down and side to side. Overall it’s a great figure and it deserves your attention.

From the beautiful object mode to the tremendous figure mode this figure does not fail to disappoint. He has

tremendous amount of features and the look of the figure is great. A lot of parts of the myth cloth are plastic due to the fact that there’s a lot of parts that have unique shapes that cannot be molded to metal. Overall the only frustrating thing that this figure as against it is the fact that the chest and the waist are too hard to put together. In my experience building this myth cloth this took around 30 minutes to complete. It should not take this long and the instructions should be more clear. But overall this figure is a 10 out of 10 from the amount of detail to the amount of love this is a great figure to have in your collection.

I want to thank I Ishop2go for letting me review this great figure And remember go out and buy it。
