Saint Seiya Myth Cloth Shaina Orphiuchus with Cassios Review

This is a figure to remember. We have seen her since the beginning of the saint seiya universe and even on the first episodes and all that the collectors would think would be… where is Shaina? We have had not so many figures of this character and all the ones that have come out are just very bad. But now Bandai has heard our prayers and they have made the figure that we, as the saint seiya community have been looking for, for a long time. And they also made a combo with Cassios which is the combo I am reviewing today.

There are 2 versions for this figure, we have the normal package with just her and then we have the double limited edition version of Shaina and Cassios. Today I will be reviewing the double package but keep in mind it is the same review for Shaina no matter what review you are reading, the single or double. As you can see the box is a standard Tamashii nation exclusive box of a solid section with Shaina and Cassios on the front. We also see the constellation of Orphiuchus on the front and we do see the box is grey with a pink purple trim. The box looks fantastic and on the side the package opens. On the side of the box it says Saint Cloth Myth and on the bottom it says Orphiuchus Cloth with a picture of the object mode in the middle. The back they show you pictures of the figure doing some action poses, some face swapping and also the object mode and Cassios. On the side of each part of the box we see it’s a black and white picture with the names of the corresponding figures for each picture. Now lets look at the contents inside.

Well this package as big as it seems to be, its only 3 plates big. On plate number one we have the figure itself with all her armor, plate 2 we have the object mode skeleton and the rest of the armor, with the swappable arm and hands, and plate number 3 contains Cassios on his entirety. The plate that is the biggest is the Cassios one cause the figure is divided in 2 sections, the top and the bottom, but let’s not review that figure, let’s review the object mode first.

First of all on the object mode, it’s very easy to make. It is not complicated and the max time it took me to build it was around 10 minutes. The cloth of this figure is not a lot and the figure only has 2 head pieces, the metal shoulders and chest, the bottoms and the knees and that’s all you have for armor. It’s not as complicated as the gold saints or anything like that, this figure is very easy to make. The object mode looks very cute and the colors work to perfections, and it’s very simple so you don’t have any problems with the object mode.

Now we review Shaina herself. Before we move forward let me explain that this figure has 2 modes to display her as. She has her training mode and the armor mode. The way the accomplished this is that the figure has a new mechanism that is introduced to the female saint seiya body. First of all, the chest has to be replacing from training to armor. Because the chest has hinges on the top with plastic shoulders for the training version, this snaps off and you put some shoulders with no hinges on the sides for the armor can go on the top of the figure. Also, as the figure is in training her left arm is covered with an arm warmer and this arm as to be completely replaced to an arm with no warmer to put the armor piece on her arm. And she has grey knee pads for her training armor as well. Over all the switching mechanism is great, but I do like both modes, and I sometimes consider getting another one just to have her in both modes. Second new improvement is that her face has a mechanism as the EX figures. It has a standard peg in the middle and you can switch from her masked face to her normal face on the fly. You can also which hairs very fast. As you can see she has 3 types of hairs you can display her with, so this mechanism benefits the user to make it as fast as possible. Well those are the new improvements. As you know Bandai made a brand new body mold for this figure. Her legs are bigger, her feet have high heels and arms are slim. As you know saint seiya Female saints have great legs and big legs at that. So they recreated the figures curves to perfection. You can easily say she is a very sexy sculpted figure, but to this figure it does not fit and I’ll tell you why. Her face sculpt is beautiful, it resembles her to the T on the anime. Her hair and body proportions are exact as I can remember and her amour is so complete and it fits so light on the figure it looks like a solid piece. I was a bit worried about the cloth being loose as this is the first female Bandai has made with armor. But you can tell the amount of love the person how made her has for her. She is made to perfection and it looks fantastic. Her armor has just the arm and the chest metal with the shoulders, other than that her bottom and her hair and masks are all plastic. She also has a mask she can hold on her hand if you want to display her with. Overall this figure is fantastic the amount of playability on this figure is phenomenal.

Cassios on this package is not the star but it’s a nice bonus. The figure is like 1 inch taller than Shaina and its just a solid piece. What does this mean? It doesn’t move and it’s just stands with his open legs and his hands out, that’s it. No movement no nothing. But for what it is this figure looks great. The amount of detail is fantastic on this figure and the colors and the likeness is very close to the figure and anime character. Still it’s a shame this figure does not have articulation but if we were never going to get a cassios as a figure, this is a good alternative for the figure.

Overall I am in love with Shaina, you can see the sculptore made this with love and you can tell with the quality. This figure is perfect and I can’t wait for the next female saint Bandai will make. Overall this figure and Cassios package get a SOLID 10/10, this figure is perfect and I’m pretty sure if you love the character you will love this figure. So go today to ishop2go and get your copy and as always…

Saint Seiya Cosmos Burning Collection (CBC) Dragon Shiryu

This line has surprised me over and over again, the amount of detail they have it tremendous and I cant say enough how surpirced that I am with this line. Most people would say that this line was destined for failure cause Bandai has the market of the saint seiya universe but as I can see right now, this line has made impressions and even more with the community. As this is the last one of this line right now I just want to say thank you to kidslogic for making this figures the best they could and I hope I see more of this line in the future.

So lets get down too it my friends, the figure comes on a standard window box and the box has a dark green look too it that means that those are the colors of Dragon. In the front we see the Toei Sticker and the saint seiya logo, and the kidslogic logo as well. On the side of the box we see a shot of the figure itself and the features it comes with, as stated before, it has 8 led lights on the base, magnetic connections, and it uses 3 AAA batteries. On the back of the box it has all the licenses of the product and some shots of the base and the figure itself. The bottom is plain white and the top has the number of the series this figure belongs too. As you open the box and take out the figure, you see the figure is surrounded by plastic coverings and you have the figure inside in the middle with his base. But now its time to look at the figure itself.

As we look at the figure, the hair is the real winner here. It is long very detailed, and it has a life on its own. As you all know this figures have big head and small body and the figure is sculpted to perfection. The face has that kid feel again and the hair and the armor are so well sculpted is outstanding. The figure itself stands on a whopping 4 to 4 ½ inches tall and the figure is very cute. The armor is a chrome look and the other parts of the figure have this matte look to it that it makes a perfect combination on the figure itself. The figure is not possible and has magnets on the bottom of the feet to hold him in place on the base. The figure can’t stand on his own; the magnets are a must for this figure. As we look at the magnetic base we see it has the slot for the battery’s and the turn on switch on the side. As you turn it on the lights light up a solid green as it matches the character again. This is a nice touch of Kidslogics part in my opinion seeing that all the figures have different lights for there characters. The base it magnetic so it can support the weight of the figure. The surrounding parts of the base is a standard Greek temple gray with steps. As it is standard with all the CBC figures, the bases due stand out a lot from the crowed.

So as the figures themselves are well made and the craftsmanship of this figures are flawless this line is one for the ages. I hope they make more figures like this in the future and I can’t wait to see more of them in the market. I give this figure 9 out of 10 which is very high in my books. If you have not tried this line, you should give it a try and I assure you, you won’t be disappointed.

Saint Seiya Cosmos Burning Collection (CBC) Cygnus Hyoga

Seeing how the Pegasus seiya was greatly sculpted on the first CBC figure that I had my hands on, I was expecting greatness with this figure of Cygnus Hyoga from kidslogic. None the less this figure did not disappoint at all in all areas. With the great quality that these figures have to offer, I know this figures will do great in the market to come in the saint seiya line. As I stated before, the big head and small body is a cute way to start showing off this great figure in a big way on your collection and with the figures out there like the WTC figures, it is no surprice that these figures have a great market.

So the figure has a standard window box. It has the color of dark blue and white signifying that this is the colors of Cygnus hyoga. The box has the CBC logo on the front with the toei sticker and the kidslogic logo in the corner aswell. On the side of the box we see a shot of the figure in all its glory and with the main features that it has on the side. The 8 LED lights on the base, the base itself, and magnetic contacts for the base and the figure. On the back they show you all the license of the figure and all the features again, nothing really spectacular as we saw in the seiya review before. The bottom of the box has a plain white look to it and on the top it tells you the number of the figure in the series. As you open the box you see the figure is surrounded by a plastic covering which keeps the figure in place. You see the figure in the middle with the base. Now its time to review the figure and the base itself.

As we see the figure it has the same detail as before, the head and the body have great proportions and the head is bigger than the body. The body itself is a miniature side but as size is concerned; the figure stands around 4 to 4 ½ inches tall. The amount of detail the figure has is tremendous and it gives you a kid feel to the figure. The eyes are captivating and are really well made. The armor on the figure has this metallic look to it that looks like the saint seiya myth cloth figures from Bandai. There is no articulation on this figure which makes him a fix pose. None the less when you see the sculpt on the figure and the matte paint and the chrome on the armor, it makes it worthwhile. As we keep looking at the base, we see it has a standard sockets to insert 3 AAA batteries on it. The lights turn on with a click of a button and the lights are now different than the seiya display from kidslogic. This lights are a white blue which matches the character perfectly. It is a nice touch. The figure cannot stand by itself so it has to small magnets on the bottom of the feet. Which when connected to the base the figure can stand on it’s on. This is a great feature because the figure does not stand properly and it leans a lot due to the big head. The base is a standard Greek steps that you see on the show, and it’s not of a different color. Both seiya stand and hyoga stand are the same. Overall this figure is a great addition to your collection.

As we saw before on the Seiya figure of Kidslogic, we saw the amount of detail and work this company has put on this line. Overall I give this figure a 9/10 and it’s a must buy for your collection. If you are a great saint seiya fan, or just a fan of miniature small boy, and big heads, this is the figure for you. I am very happy with my purchase and I know you will be as well.

Saint Seiya Myth Cloth Tamashii Nation Black Dragon and Swan Review

Now were to begin on these two figures… well to start off these 2 figures was part of the second tamashii nation wave of black saints. The only black saint that was released for normal distribution is the Black Phoenix. As Andromeda and Pegasus black was a great success, people needed to get their hands on a black Dragon and Swan figures for their complete black figure collection of saint seiya. The quality of the Andromeda and Pegasus is tremendous and hope this figures live up to their name.

As the package is concerned the box is a solid black with a blue background with the constellations of the swan and the dragon. You have shots of the figures in the front in a normal pose. As this is a Tamashii Nation box this does not have a book style or window package, it’s a solid one box. On each side of the box there are 2 different symbols on it, one has the dragon and one has the swan. On the back of the box we see on the corners the pictures of dragon and swan in black and white and then you have the figures in the middle on a pose holding the fake Sagittarius cloth on their arms. You see pictures of the extra faces they come with for the original cloths and then you see the object mode pictures there as well. Now as the same with the Steel Saints, these figures are stacked on each other on the package with a solid plate. On one plate there’s one figure and the object mode parts and cloth parts and the other plate the other. The manual is a bit thicker on these figures because it has a double feature that the figure builds are on the manual. Instructions are easy to follow and if you have build the original dragon or Cygnus cloths then you know that is the same build.

Now on the object mode, the swan object mode was greatly done, very easy to do and not so complicated. It was a straight build if you follow the manual piece by piece. Now the dragon object mode had the same problem as the first one, the chest did not want to close properly on the figure and the chest cover part did not click on the chest part. This is a very frustrating thing to do if you want to see the object mode. It is one of the most frustrating things you can do on a cloth, and if you try to force it, then the part will break so you have to kind of hide it to make it look like it’s in place. Still the figure object modes look stunning but looks cannot save you on a rating. And on object mode I have to give the figures a 7.5. it is just too frustrating for the person to build and if this was your first myth cloth, you would be disappointed.

Now for the figures themselves, the one that didn’t give me any trouble was dragon shiryu, the build was straight to the point, his hair color and face sculpture is tremendous and when it’s all set and done this figure just looks great. The eyes and the hear are great attention getters and the cloths color is just a solid black which gives it that extra anime look. Dragon is for sure my most favorite figure on this package. Now for swan, the sculpt is great, the cloth looks fantastic, but the belt on this figure on my package came morphed. It did not fit the figure, and didn’t want to close properly. I had to spend more than 3 hours trying to fix his belt. I didn’t understand why I was having this issue one a 150+ figure that I bought; this should be a tamashii exclusive and should not have any defects. Because they are limited they should have checked for quality control on the figure. In the end this figure frustrated me more than any other figure I have every had a problem with. I also had a problem with the skit parts of swan, they would fall off very easily and it was frustrating because they don’t stay in place. As a buyer on these cloths I was very disappointed, they should have addressed these issues early on and not sell unfinished products. There are even reports of other people having the same problems but with the Dragon. This is a bad idea on Bandai and if this was my first figure I have ever gotten from them, I would sure not buy one every again. Still the figure sculpt is great, and the likeness of the figures is tremendous like on the anime, but these issues made me very disappointed with this set. They also give you 2 extra heads for the original versions of the cloths, with a screaming face pose. It is a nice addition but it’s not a deal breaker for me. The deal breaker was on these cloths. As a rating is concerned, I will give these a 6 in rating. They have too many problems for people to truly enjoy the figures, but after you fix them, they will look great on the collection.

So from the object problems to the figure great problems is hard to recommend this set. But I only recommend it for the hard core saint seiya collector. This set is very frustrating and very hard to build, it’s just a fair warning that you are going to spend a lot of time in building this figures for sure.
