Unboxing the Bandai Tamashii Nations GX-71 Voltron action figure was an experience in itself! The packaging, while slightly different from what I expected due to its dual logos – one for Western markets and another for Asian ones, added a unique touch that made it feel like I was getting a collectible piece straight from Japan.
Upon opening the sleeve emblazoned with the iconic Voltron logo, I found the box beneath featuring the Golion logo, which was both intriguing and authentic at the same time. As a fan of the classic ‘Voltron Defender of the Universe,’ this attention to detail really resonated with me.
The figure itself is beautifully crafted, with a level of detail that is hard to ignore. From each individual limb to the intricate design on Voltron’s body, every aspect has been meticulously thought out and executed flawlessly. The action figure is also compatible with the UK/European system, making it truly region-free for collectors like myself who appreciate versatility in their collectibles.
One minor drawback I found was that the manual and packaging were in Japanese, which might be challenging for those who don’t understand the language. However, for me, this added to the authenticity of owning a genuine Japanese action figure. In terms of usability, the figure is easy to pose and move, allowing for endless display options.
Overall, I am thoroughly impressed with the Bandai Tamashii Nations GX-71 Voltron ‘Voltron Defender of the Universe’ Soul of Chogokin Action Figure. Its attention to detail, versatility in compatibility, and authentic Japanese design elements make it a must-have for any serious Voltron or action figure collector.
