Revoltech series from Kaiyodo is mainly focus on mecha. So far their previously release anime action figures on this series is pretty ugly and unappetizing.

This release is Kaiyodo third attempt to release an anime figure in this series and I think they are doing pretty good after learning all their mistakes in Dante and Revy.

Saber is the second generation of Revoltech. Besides making use of the new double-jointed "Revolver" joints, Kaiyodo has finally employed a sculptor to sculpt their anime action figures. The result is a pretty damn good work in the sculpting department. Saber look like Saber as in the anime and her costume is perfectly replicated.

Moreover, the new "Revolver" joints are pretty ingenious. Saber costume comes with an armored long skirt and it should limit her lower torso movement. However, the new joints on each side of her skirt making her long and large skirt piece quite unobstructive. The side skirt can be flipped up, twisted and turned in quite a number of directions.

As for the accessories, the package includes 2 swords; namely Saber's Excalibur and her Caliburn, a phantom sword molded in clear plastic. A display stand and base are included.

This is in overall quite good but I am not giving it a perfect score owing to 2 minor issues. Firstly, it is her neck. It is not moveable and it is molded slanting forward. This makes her head jutting forward all the time. I think it will be perfect if the neck is molded straight up instead. Secondly, a very minor point brought up by my own fuzziness is her elbow are hinged jointed thus betraying her overall perfection.

This item is purchase online from HLJ.


   
 
 
 
 
 
   
   
Notice the new "Revolver" joint at the side skirting. The hands is using another "Revolver" joint for freedom in movement.
