Introdução/Intro
Comecei colecionar brinquesdos de forma mais séria em 2008, como uma forma de buscar as raízes de minha infância. Entre estes heróis consta o Giant Robo, que não era dos meus preferidos, mas também curtia.



Descobri o lançamento deste Giant Robo-Revoltech através da loja on-line japonesa Blister, recomendada pelo meu companheiro colecionador do Japão Michel. Neste site dá para ficar sabendo o que está sendo lançado, apesar de não saber ler japonês.

I have begun my toy collection more seriously in 2008 to make a rescue of my childhood. One of my heroes was the Japanese/Tokusatsu Giant Robo, which was not one of my preferred, but I liked it.
I discovered this releasing through the japanese store Blister, which was reccomended by my fellow collector from Japan, Michel. It is possible to check the new releasings, although I can't read japanese.

Achei-o pequeno, mas pelo preço, tudo bem.
A little bit small, but OK for the price.

Poses












Palavras Finais/Final words

Para mim este Giant Robo/Revoltech teve uma avaliação positiva, devido ao acabamento com pintura imitando desgaste e alto grau de articulação. Para fazer as poses deve-se ter uma certa familiaridade com a articulação de modo a realizá-las. Como ponto negativo, refere-se tão somente ao tamanho. Mas como é uma peça de preço baixo, creio que faz justiça.


For me this Giant Robo/Revoltech has a positive note. The positve points are the painting, which simulates a battle damaged and high degree of articulation. It is necessary to know how it works the articulation to make the extreme poses. The only negative point os the small size, but its ok considering the low value (around U$25).

CHRISTIAN BALE EVOLUTION!

Introduction
Since 2008 I started my 1/6 collection and my focus was initially based on Action Figures of my childhood, with heroes like Ultraman and Spectreman. And during this time the company named Hot Toys started to release a new wave of high end detailed figures in 1/6 scale. I must say that I was lucky enough to be in touch with the releasing of these figures in communities or blogs around the world.

But I must admitt that to be a collector is a difficult task, because it is important to not transform in an obsession and buying evertything. It is very important to keep the focus.

One of the Figures that I must admit that are wonderful, but in my opinion the franchising is not so cool is the T-4. The Figures of Marcus Wright and John Connor are very well-made but in my opinion the movie was very weak. For this reason I didn't buy these Figures but I was very impressed with the headsculpts of Marcus and Connor.

Well, being a collector means you have a lot of acessories from other Figures that are not in use. And with these pieces in hand I have decided to make a Master Wayne Ninja.

But first, there are some photos of the headsculpts of Christian Bale and it is interesting to note the evolution of the sculpts. It is very impressive how far the Asian artists are going.

Evolution

One of my first figures was the Batman Takara/Tomy Genx Core and the release dat was in 2006.




Today this headsculpt is a little bit "cartoonish".
