War Machine: Revoltech

Manufactured by Kaiyodo
From The Sci-Fi Revoltech Line
Released in 2011
This figure is really far much more better than the Hasbro's 6' version. in terms of articulation, scale, paint, accessories and details, the figure really top all those things against his other 6' counterpart.















The Box itself has a nice touch, has a Mint collector flip-open box with, movie taken pictures of WM, has lots of information about the character too.




































Has a easy storage plastic cover for the figure inside its case.













Comes with 4 pieces of extra hand (you get 6 including the 2 that are already attached), 3 pieces gun firing effects for the guns (they somehow took this from Toybiz's ML concept), the back gattling gun, 2 arm guns, an orange revo container, and a name plate.






The container box doesn't really keep all the extra accessories though it would have been nice if it did to lessen the possibility of loosing those little parts.








As for the Figure:

(has a literally ball-jointed knees)






Articulation is quite massive, as expected with a Revo figure, there's hundreds of poses you could think of. (which for picture-space purposes i just posted some).































Aside from the articulation, the side-decals are really impressive, close to movie-accurate. (to think, some of the toy companies wouldn't pay much attention to small details like this)


One of the main problem of this figure has and that i'm really irritated with, is that it's difficult to stand on it's own and balance, probably because of a heavier upper body. it tends to fall down every once in a while and especially when i was taking pictures. i just then decided to use my generic 6' stand to help me with those poses. (also for flying effect) it would have been nice though if Kaiyodo included a stand. parts also disconnects easily while trying to pose the figure specially the arm-parts.





















A perfect fit together with those 6 inch figures (here with Hasbro's X-Force Deadpool).




And just for the kick of it, here's compared with the shameless Hasbro's Mark 2.














Now obviously, this will be my generic War Machine for my movie line.


















X-Force Deadpool (loose)

Hasbro Marvel Legends 
Wave 3 (The "No BAF" Wave)
Released in 2012


















Comes with 2 swords, a pistol, riffle, sword sheath. and stand.












Yes! just a plain stand not a highly detailed base, and definitely not a BAF part. (shame on you hasbro! --toybiz)









Highly articulated, as Hasbro did a pretty good job on improving their figures.

With Fantomex


The Stand came in handy though for those action poses.
