Seemed like I should get this review out before the new ship from the First4Figures Metroid line comes out! This was the first release, Samus’ Gunship from Metroid Prime 2 : Echos. I’ve been a big fan of the Metroid ship designs since Super Metroid so I was jacked when First4Figures said they were making [...]
I’m not sure if the translation I received was 100% accurate but it seems the Max Factory Zero Suit Samus statue and their Samus Varia Suit Figma go up for pre-order tomorrow! I’ll post links once they’re available. I’ll be trying to grab both so you can look forward to future reviews! Update : Zero [...]

Another great shot from Tomopop, Max Factory is coming out with a Zero Suit Samus statue! Certainly a different style than the First4Figures Zero Suit Samus, not entirely sold on the face so far though.

I’ve been waiting for a quality Samus action figure for a reasonable price for a LONG time, when it was announced that Figma had the licence, I was jacked. Finally, after a long wait, the first full shot! This comes from Tokyo Hunter/Tomopop, credit to them. Can’t wait to see the accessories and full details.

I’ve still got to get the first gunship from this line, all the reviews say it was worth the wait. First4Figures will hopefully release this one, the Metroid Prime gunship, with significantly less of a delay (the first one was what, 2-3 years?). Limited to 750 pieces with a MSRP of $300. If you’re ordering [...]

First4Figures has a history of delaying statues, but Zero Suit Samus here was crazier than most. I think she was delayed about 3 years. Their Metroid Gunship had a similar delay, yet the regular Metroid suits had no such problem. WEIRD. Anywho, I picked up the exclusive, let’s see if all that waiting was worthwhile.

Alright, I took a ton of photos for reviews this month, so no more slacking from me! I’m going to create a new lightbox at some point this month for larger statues and props and what not, and I’m going to take a larger variety of shots. I find when I do a review after [...]
