Gotenks Review

Welcome to a Dragonball Z toy review by TheSonicHero5000.
Up for inspection in this review is the IF Labs Fusion Collection Gotenks figure. (Even though it says Movie Collection. This is in fact a Fusion Collection figure as stated on its packaging. Unfortunately I don't have the packaging but there are pictures across the Internet so you can get a clear view of it.)

Articulation - Gotenks has 14 points of articulation. Head, Waist, Arms (outwards and 360.), Elbows, Hands, Upper Knee (V joint), Legs and Ankles.

Detail - Great. The vest is very nicely painted - gives off a battle damaged look. Face could be different. (A smile might work best.) Great detail in trousers/ pants. Hair is a good colour especailly the purple.

Accessories - Gotenks comes with an extra set of hands. (He has open hands and closed fists) He also comes with two "Kamikaze Ghosts". Each of them has a different sculpt and different expression. I like their glowy and transparent effect but because of the way they sculpted they have no points of articulation. Another thing is that you have to stand them on the clear rods they give you, because they can't stand on their own.

Pros and Cons

Pros: Great detail
Great shading
Cool accessories
Great colouring
Decent articulation

Cons: Face sculpt could be changed. (That's my opinion.)
Ghosts cant stand and have no points of articulation
Paint errors

Overall this figure is pretty good considering it came from nearly 10 years ago.
I give this a figure a 4.5 out of 5. I totally recommend this for any Dragonball Z figure collector. I paid £15.00 ($20.00 if you are American) for mine secondhand. In the UK prices rise for these sort of figures. I have seen them go over £30 and that is too pricey.
So if you can find them at a good price then I suggest that you buy these types of figures.

Thanks for reading this review. Hope it helps you to decide what Dragonball Z figure (from IF Labs) to buy.
