Megahouse POP DX Ver. 2 Dracule Mihawk

Hello everyone! For this post, we will be showcasing actual pictures of Portrait of Pirates (POP) DX Dracule Mihawk Ver. 2. The Portrait of Pirates line is Megahouse's high-quality figures for One Piece Characters. The POP line is characterized by excellent details and are larger in size as compared to Figuarts Zero figures. I am comparing the two since Figuarts Zero is another product line that caters to numerous One Piece characters.

Dracule Mihawk is the greatest swordsman in the world of One Piece. He is Roronoa Zoro's ultimate aim. Aside from this, he is also one of the Shichibukai. Very early on in the series, he met Roronoa Zoro and they had a duel which resulted in Zoro's loss. After that, the both of them had a very peculiar relationship where Mihawk became Zoro's rival and teacher at the same time. Mihawk is one of the very cool characters in One Piece if you ask me. I personally like Roronoa Zoro and it is only right that Zoro is aiming for a guy like this considering how epic Dracule Mihawk is. 

Mihawk is also known as "Hawk Eyes" and if you look at his eyes in this POP figure, you will see where he got this nickname from. 

This PoP figure is the second version of Dracule Mihawk released. The first version reflected the original style of drawing for the One Piece series wherein most characters had a more cartoon appearance. With this Version 2 of Mihawk's PoP, it reflects the current trend in One Piece drawings wherein the characters are much more realistic in their body shapes as compared to their appearances in the first few episodes of One Piece.

This figure stands about 10 inches tall excluding the sword from its measurement. Aside from his stock pose folding his arms, he also comes with an extra head, two arms, two hands, one black sword, and another cross necklace. That's quite a lot of interchangeable parts considering that Mihawk will only be standing in this PoP. The number of interchangeable parts provides you with more options on how you can pose him and I think the numebr of parts also justify his more expensive pricing in the secondary market.

This figure is pretty epic but please be careful when handling the sword. Also, I didn't notice at first but I didn't screw the head in properly when I first took pictures. The other head comes with his spiky hair which can be a bit sharp when you're trying to put it on him. Enjoy the actual pictures below!

Megahouse G.E.M. Hijikata Toushirou Ver. Ka

Introducing to you Megahouse G.E.M. Hijikata Toushirou Ver. Kai! You will find pictures of the actual product here. I would have to say unboxing this figure was a great pleasure. The details are superb and I'm going to let the pictures speak for themselves. Megahouse is really stepping up with some of its recent releases. The quality of this figure is outstanding. As to whether the figure is representative of the character, I'd say it all boils down to personal preference and, for me, I am quite satisfied.  Hijikata Toushiro is a character from the hit anime series Gintama. He is known as the Demon Vice Commander of the Shinsengumi in this show. In the show, Hijikata actually became an otaku who was also interested in collecting anime figures. His love for mayonnaise is very much emphasized in the show where he can be seen eating bowls of it or even using it as a weapon. This is a Version Kai (New) because there has already been a previous release of Hijikata Toushiro ...

Master Stars Piece MSP Hinata Shoyo - Haikyuu!! - Banpresto

Hello! Here are actual pictures of Banpresto's Master Stars Piece of Hinata Shoyo from Haikyuu. As what you would expect from a figure of this scale and price, the paint job is not that super great, but it's actually good. In fact, I like this figure very much. The consistency in paint job could differ for each figure, but this is nothing out of the ordinary that you would expect from a prize figure. I got this figure for around P1,000 which is usually how much Master Stars Pieces sell for (except the special limited ones which could go as high as P2,500 - P3,000). Hinata is one of the main characters in the anime show Haikyuu!! He is supposedly small but has incredible jumping power which earned him the distinction of being the best decoy. His combination with Tobio Kageyama, however, is also a deadly weapon for their team. You can actually pose this figure of Hinata together with Tobio since there is also a Master Stars Piece of Tobio Kageyama - although we weren't ab...

Kotobukiya Artfx J Ken Kaneki - 1/8 Awakened Ver.

Hello! It's been a long time since we've posted. We do have more arrivals at our site www.wrenhobbi.com but as for pictures of opened products, we'll try to update our personal collection. Showing you up next is Kotobukiya's Ken Kaneki in 1/8 Scale. Enjoy the pictures of the actual item. Note: Lighting and camera may affect the quality of the picture and there may be slight differences if you have the actual product. Ken Kaneki is one of my favorite character out there. He is the typical protagonist you see - wimpy at first but then slowly starts to get better as the show progresses. What I like about him is that in Tokyo Ghoul, you can see his bitter struggles and how he matures and grows into his role despite the tragedies that he has already experienced. I like having characters like this with inspiring backgrounds because whenever I see their figure, I am reminded of what I admire in these characters. That said, aside from the character himself, this figure of K...
