revoltech no. 59

i've been waiting for a package from the big bad toy store, and finally this past friday, a box was waiting for me.

in the box were the two revoltech figures that i had been keeping my eye on.  no. 59, the full metal panic robot, and no. 52, the lazengann robot from the gurren lagann anime.

from the side, the boxes look normal.  they box have similar sizes with the classic revoltech box art.

however, the arx-8 laevatein, no. 59, is twice the length (that's what she said~) of normal revoltech boxes~!

here is the figure out of the box in a great fighting stance.  

like all revoltech figures, no. 59 has great poseability.  i'm not sure that's a word though.

as you can see, it's a great looking figure with great coloring and attention to detail.  however, the bonus with this figure is the extra armor and oversized firearms it comes with.

here's no. 59 with the attached armor and 76mm shot cannon.

the more impressive demolition gun.

i love the magazines in the rear of the gun that show the unused bullets ready for action.  once again, the attention to detail is what makes these figures worth the price.

no. 59 protecting a toki doki dog with the monomolecular cutters.  notice how the demolition gun folds up and retracts to the back of the figure.

all in all, no. 59 is a great figure with tons of accessories and weapons.  along with the ones i've shown, there are also two smaller anti tank daggers as well as extra robotic arms that hold grenades.  by far, no. 59 is the most well equipped revoltech yet.

the no. 52 photoshoot/review will be coming soon.
