P.O.P DX Admiral Kizaru & Roronoa Zoro (New World)

P.O.P Sailing Again: Roronoa Zoro (New World)

Here are a few new updates on the coming P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) DX & Sailing Again series. Both coming out for pre-orders tonight are P.O.P DX Admiral Kizaru and P.O.P Sailing Again: Roronoa Zoro, both of which look fantastic. The additional items that come with Admiral Kizaru is pretty awesome and I am happy to see that MegaHouse has decided to include another Zoro face with him holding the sword in his mouth.

For those that are starting to get into collecting P.O.P's this would be a nice time to start collecting the Mugiwara New World version, since compare to the older one's the sculpt and poses were pretty simple and mind you that they were just starting when this series got really popular. Personally for me, I won't be collecting the P.O.P's for this series just because of the limited space I have in my room and also the cost of which these fantastic figures are. I will however consider buying certain characters if they decide to bring those out, like the other Shichibukai's but because of the Sailing Again series launching I hope they won't abandon the DX series and bring out a new one.

Here is a small photo update on the P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) DX Admiral Kizaru at the One Piece convention fair happening in Tokyo this week. This time he is fully colored since we last saw him during his prototype a few months back. The color detail is pretty clean, but there are no images of him with new poses or additional items that comes with him at the moment.

P.O.P Time Skip Nami, Luffy, Zoro, & Chopper

Here are a bunch of new P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) One Piece characters that has been announced and will possibly coming out during the summer & fall. The following P.O.P DX are God Enel, Admiral Kizaru, and Admira Akainu, P.O.P Mild Child are Sabo, Ace, & Luffy. Finally MegaHouse has also announced their One Piece Time Skip versions and they have announced: Luffy, Zoro, Nami, and Chopper at the moment. Also there is a Special Collaboration figure set with Luffy & Toriko as well, although from what I have read so far is that only 1000 of the Luffy & Toriko sets are made. This will be pretty pricy to get a hold of, I guarantee!!

Banpresto's DX Marine: Admiral Akainu

Banpresto DX Marine: Admiral Akainu

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.

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).
