The pieces move and flow together quite seamlessly despite having seams. At first it was a bit odd, but after posing figure quite a bit you aren’t hit with huge eyesore in the engineering of these three pieces, in fact quite the opposite. The flaps meet along the chest strap with one gliding under the other. The back plate is a part of the chest sculpt which is hollowed in the front, there are no ribs or chest sculpting, with the front plate being made up of 2 flaps of rubber.

However there is a bit of an odd configuration as the chest armor is split into 3 parts. The chest plate is sculpting using a really soft rubber allowing for the ab joints to work unhindered. The armor sculpting is really the ticket on this character, his chest plate and the banded armor on his thighs are really well sculpted. If I had to throw out one complaint it might be that the length of the forearms are a bit long, the long legs and long arms give Guts an amazing sense of power! It’s a tall figure coming with great accessories. I decided to start with Guts Band of the Hawk as this is Guts from the start, he hasn’t become worn down and changed by the world, he’s still looking sharp in his armor and is still “heroic.” Figma’s figure accurately captures the look, it’s a fantastic sculpt and has so much detail I get lost looking at the figure. There are currently 5, Guts Black Soldier version, Guts Berserk Armour version, Casca, Griffith and Guts Band of the Hawk version.


Thus my new resolve to collect figma’s Berserk action figures.
