TAMASHII NATIONSElden Ring - Festering Fingerprint Vyke, Bandai Spirits S.H.Figuarts Action Figure

I didn't really know what to expect from this figure, but having bought the entire set of Chainsaw Man S.H. Figuarts a few weeks prior to buying this one, i guessed they'd be the same quality, and i was right! this is not a bad thing as i love those figures, but this seems slightly higher quality to those even, so that's great.He comes with three sets of hands, two pairs for holding the spear, one of these pairs are angled differently, then a pair of relaxed hands, and an effect part to put on his spear, of course also usable with other figures.I've read some reviews saying he's very fragile, and i'm not sure if that's just quality control of they're just handling this figure too roughly, i'm always very delicate when posing my import figures and have only had figures break on me maybe 5 or 6 times in my 23 years of collecting, these breaks were in my rookie years of collecting, just be more careful people!Paint wise he's actually really impressive, everything is pretty accurate to the game, and i couldn't see any obvious omissions, which is also great.Articulation is something i've seen a lot of people complain about, and with the exception of his legs being a bit restricted i actually really like him, everything is up to modern standards for posable action figures. Though one thing i can complain about is that his knees get really loose if you pose the figure a little too much, can be remedied with a multitude of different solutions you can find online, but a little annoying, hopefully just a CQ issue with mine. Compared to the 'figma Demon's Souls - Fluted Armor' figure though, where his torso would constantly separate from his lower body - this figure is great, it's less articulated in the torso but i'll take it over nothing, or constant separation.Overall i'm extremely happy i got this, i got it during black friday, and for the price i paid i couldn't be happier, had i bought it for retail price i may have changed my tune a bit, i come from a time where both Figma and S.H. Figuarts cost around 20 to 30 dollars retail, and the pricing of figures in general nowadays is pretty ridiculous, something about plastic costs going up? meh.If you're a fan of Elden Ring, fan of figures, or just a fan of having cool things on your shelf, get it! it's exactly what you'd expect, buy a pack of 'Tamashii Stage Act Humanoid' stands or something though, since he doesn't come with one, or just make your own stand if you've got the creative skills.My score? a perfect 5/5, can't wait for Malenia!

Articulation and pose ability is great. Details are great. Yes, he is smaller, but that's a given for high detail, high quality poseable figures, unless you spend hundreds.

This figure is great for posing, accept for a few small restrictions - the chainmail skirt doesn't allow for too deep of lunges and when I first received it, I had to manually loosen up the bicep swivel and the toe bend. Overall, for the money it is a very fun and solid figure!

Amazing figure with amazing detail and articulation

Great quality. Good packaging. Ships fast. Small figure. When you assemble the spear it’s too heavy. But a good collectible worth the purchase.

This is a solid figure with excellent articulating. My only criticism would be a lack of accessories, you get vykes war spear and a fire effect for the spear but not much else not that the character has many accessories to begin with.I've seen people complain about the size which is silly to me because this is the scale of these kinds of semi high end figures, they're smaller than your typical 20 dollar 6 in figures but they have much higher quality and articulation. Also the listing tells you the size of the product so please read the product size before purchasing if that is a problem for you.Another thing to note is the spear can break if you're not careful, mine is not broken but that's another complaint I've seen in these other reviews.

Perfect

it is a very cool toy and great for elden ring enjoyers like myself but the spear seperates which wasn't a problem for me until the head of the spear started falling off at just a light bump and i don't know if it happened to anyone else but mine didn't come with the fist for the left hand
