Banpresto DX Marine: Admiral Aokiji

Banpresto DX Marine: Admiral Aokiji

Finally the last review of Banpresto DX Marine: Admiral Aokiji (大将青雉 Taishō Aokiji). Similar to Admiral Kizaru & Akainu, the figure comes with a base and a Admiral coat with blue cuffs. Aokiji is around 16 cm tall with his "I don't care"-look pose. Compare to Kizaru and Akainu, Aokiji has a difficult time standing on it's own without the base, but he can stand without his coat on. With having all the Admiral Marines, I would say that this series is pretty good for those that want to start collecting Banpresto DX figures. I hope that later in the future, Banpresto decides to make some more Marine figures to go balance out with Pirates. Here's a small gallery of Aokiji. Enjoy!

Here's another review of Banpresto DX Marine: Admiral Akainu (大将赤犬 Taishou Akainu). The figure is around 15cm tall, similar to Kizaru from the previous review. The figure comes with a standing base and his Marine Admiral coat, same as Kizaru's but the cuff colors are different. They made Akainu's facial expression spot on and the details on this figure is just awesome. Here is a small photo gallery of the figure itself. Enjoy!

Here's a short review of Banpresto's DX Marine: Admiral Kizaru (大将黄猿 "Taishou Kizaru"). The figure itself is around 16cm tall and he comes with his base and his Admiral cape. Personally out of all the DX Marine figures, Kizaru is one of my favorite characters. I wish they gave him a different pose like for instance him talking on his den den mushi watch, but he's still pretty good none the less. The details on his face is well done, especially the clear paint color on his glasses. The painting details on his suit is nicely done, where folded areas has a darker tint of yellow. Overall an impressive DX Marine figure and for those wanting to get into the Banpresto DX line, the DX Marine is highly recommended.

Banpresto DX Marine: Sengoku Gensui

Here's the first review of the Banpresto DX Marine: Sengoku Gensui (Fleet Admiral Sengoku). The figure is around 16-17cm tall, comes with a base, Marines coat, and his Seagull hat. The details on him are very clean and the paint job is fantastic. Compared to the other Banpresto DX series, the DX Marines don't have pegs at the bottom of their feet so they can stand without their base. The coat is removable, but I keep it on him when posing him on the shelf. The only thing I'm a bit worried about is the paint coming off of the inside of the coat onto his white suit. Therefore I placed a thing sheet of plastic to keep the paint from smudging onto his coat. Here are some close up photo's and I hope you enjoy them!

Recently got my Banpresto DX Marine's and Will of D (Gol D. Roger) in the mail today and thought I would post some photo's of them. I will have a short review of each individual figure in the up coming posts, but here's a small gallery of them for those interested in seeing what they look like.

I am slowly transitioning from collecting P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) by MegaHouse to Banpresto DX/Master Star Piece collection, just because of their cost and the quality they have. I will be still collecting the P.O.P's depending if there are characters I am really interested in. Currently waiting for Silver Rayleigh, Donflamingo, Moria (maybe), Jinbei (considering), and Bartholomew Kuma (currently on pre-order).
