Megahouse GEM Naruto - The Last

For today, we have actual product shots of Megahouse's Naruto - The Last Movie Ver. This item is quite simple with few accessories. However, don't let the simplicity fool you. The item is actually quite nice and the details are good (as expected of GEM). I got this piece for around P4,000. The Last movie takes place two years after the final battle between Naruto and Sasuke.


Below is a picture of the item outside its box. As you can see, it only consists of three things:
  1. the item itself
  2. the base of the item, and 
  3. the plastic support for the running pose of the figure.
The base uses metal pegs to support Naruto standing up on one leg only. I really appreciate this since I had a figure before that stood up only on one leg too. The peg got broken and I can't display the figure anymore without looking for a solution. With the metal pegs, the chances of the peg breaking is practically zero. 

The design of the base is simple but, then again, I have seen much worse bases, so I don't see a reason to dislike this one.

A plastic support is included to prop up his right leg to prevent issues of leaning of the figure.

I'm happy at how Megahouse has not ignored the small details of this figure. Then again, Megahouse generally takes care of the small details especially with G.E.M. In the pictures that will follow, you will see the details on his forehead protector, his jacket, his hands, and even the pouches on his back.

Naruto is one of the few series that has stood the tests of time. In fact, most people are still looking for Naruto's successor. Considering the recent influx of Naruto figures, I think it is high time that Naruto gets the PVC treatment it deserves. In the earlier days, we really had trouble looking for Naruto figures. The good news is that more and more Naruto figures seem to be coming out. Will we see more characters from the series soon? I do hope so! 

Now, another series that could definitely use more figures is BLEACH. But, then again, that will be for another time. What characters from the Naruto series would you want to see released next? Personally, I hope they would release a Jiraiya. But that is just my wishful thinking.

Anyway, you can see more of our photos and comments on the item below:



Full body shot of Naruto facing to the left. Here in this picture, you can see the plastic support for his right leg as he does the running pose. You can actually pose him even without that plastic support but I prefer leaving it on all the time to prevent issues of having the figure leaning.


Here is naruto this time facing to the right. You can see that his other hand is bandaged. On another note, since this is a running pose, shouldn't they have made this with the traditional "Naruto Running Pose" with his arms flailing at his back? :p



Here is a close-up of his right foot and of the plastic support. I really enjoy these supports since they make me feel more secure in knowing that the chances that my figure will lean are very slim.


This is a shot from behind. The details are quite excellent. You can see his pouch (?) and his sidebag (?) - sorry I don't know what those were called in the series.




The paintjob on his forehead protector is also good. 


Close-up of the buttons on his costume.



Is that a Hermes belt that Naruto is wearing?



In conclusion: It is a very simple figure. I like it since I won't be left feeling bad for having unused accessories left in the box.

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...
