TAMASHII NATIONSBandai S.H.Figuarts Super Sailor Moon Action Figure

Super Sailor Moon comes with four faces, the Spiral Heart Moon Rod, the Rainbow Moon Chalice or Holy Grail, five pairs of matching hands, and three other non-matching hands, one of which is part of her signature pose. She's 6 to 6 1/2 inches tall.The faces include one with closed eyes and a closed smiling mouth, one with a closed mouth and a serious look, one with a shouting mouth with a serious look and am open eyed closed mouth smiling one. To change out the faces, you need to remove the bangs first and then the current face. The bangs are easy to remove since the feather clips are sturdy enough to use to get leverage but to remove the face, I've found I needed to grab behind the ear and switch from side to side to wiggle the face out of the slots. However, putting in another face and replacing the bangs is super easy since they just slide right back in and just need a little press. The hands snap on and off really easily as well, but you need to be a little delicate since it's a very thin plastic rod and ball.Super Sailor Moon is painted with pearlescent paint with anime accurate colors. The paint job is flawless on mine. Her twin tails are transparent, as are the ends of her back bow and sleeves. Everything is extremely detailed, including the Spiral Heart and Chalice! The non-transparent part of her hair is even several different shades of blonde that go well together, giving it more depth and making it look more realistic. Her stand is heart shaped, clear, features a crescent moon above a butterfly and sparkles all in pink and has three different slots for the rod that holds her up. There's a slot on either side of the heart where the arches are and one at the bottom where the point is.While she is fully poseable, her bow is big enough that it gets in the way of the stand, which attaches at her waist, and her sleeve caps keep her arms from moving very far upwards. As she needs to have some movement, I understand the need to have the glove tops only show on the back (elbow) part, I'm sad that it's hard to pose her so it's not showing the flesh colored bend. I'm also a little upset that it's hard to put her in her signature pose because when you move her foot at the ankle joint, it rolls to one side or another, so you can't make her foot point to the side without it being rolled under.Aside from those minor annoyances, this figure is amazingly detailed and gorgeous. I don't own any of the others since I don't collect figures, but this one was worth getting.Link to my video review can be found here: https://youtu.be/GU8eCEXyMN4

I was scared to order this from Amazon, since there are so many fakes reported. The box mine came in had the toei animation sticker on the front, and both sides of the box were sealed.. The paint quality is amazing, and I love the pearlescent sheen to her skirt bow. The body of her suit has a nice glean as well.The size was as expected, but I posted a photo of Super Sailor Moon next to a Nintendo Amiibo for scale.At first, she is a bit tough to pose, but you will get the hang of it with a bit of practice.Only complaint is that her left hair easily falls out of the odango.... I'm not entirely sure, what happened, but I may have been too aggressive with moving her hair at first.. I will chalk that up to user error.Overall, I am very happy with my purchase! So cute and lovely!

PACKAGINGThe box for Super Sailor Moon arrived slightly damaged from shipper. :( This was a bit sad for me but as I'm not a mint condition person I'm not sending it back.Box has more white in it than prior releases, focusing on the butterfly theme of Super Sailor Moon. Silver license grant sticker on the front confirming it is not a bootleg. Sides and back show possible poses and the 4 face plates she comes with.Inside there are a few layers to the plastic packaging, with the arm for the stand actually bundled in the innermost layer with the figure instead of separately with the base.FIGUREOverall quality is great. Her arms cannot be raised past the shoulders due to the clear pauldrons, but they hold poses well. I haven't tried to remove her hands yet. Default hands hold the Grail well.Back bow is interesting, painted a pearly white at top and then become transparent toward the tips. The folds in the bow are exquisitely sculpted. Down side: they are fully static. You cannot impart any secondary motion in posing through the bow. :(Her skirt seems more voluminous than her basic form, and has more detail to the pleating. The two bands of color on the edge are applied perfectly. The yellow used seems a bit too bright and is hard to see. There are a couple minor bumps in the top of her belt where the paint didn't adhere as well.Tiny compact on her belt and bow are pink instead of red so that is an odd design change. They are very delicately painted and sculpted though.The reds used on her bow, boots, etc seem like the color is a little brighter than on basic Sailor Moon Figuarts, with more of a warm undertone (orangey).Two yellow lines on sailor collar painted perfectly.Hair is painted... Oddly. It is a much lighter yellow than on the previous figure, and the pigtails begin a gradient to transparency not even halfway down which is an interesting look. The top of her head, bangs, and buns are very matte in comparison. There is a bit of darker yellow added for shading but it is probably the least carefully applied paint, really just spurts of airbrush giving her hair an uneven tint the tops of her bangs are darker than the bottoms where they curve under, for example. Not a lot of finesse used here.Her left bun is slightly lopsided. The little red circle hairpiece looks like it is slipping off due to bad placement. The pigtails are placed well though and can be adjusted to have her hair posed to impart a sense of motion. Though they feel a bit delicate and are harder to adjust to exactly the pose I want.Her barrettes are sculpted well and painted well.ACCESSORIESShe comes with a delicately sculpted and painted Holy Grail, and her cosmic heart rod. No Kaleidmoonscope. :(She has 4 faces - neutral /smiling, angry with mouth open, angry with mouth closed, and eyes and mouth closed.Her hands seem to be the same as with the first set and are on a set of pegs/stands instead of loose in the plastic which is great. Helps prevent accidental loss.Overall very satisfied with the quality. With her hair wqs painted better and that the bow could be posed.

She is definitely a must have for any Moonie. One thing I do wish for this one is that her back bow ribbons wear on ball joints as well. They would have been super cool to have been able to pose with her in her attack pose but since they can't you can't really do her attack pose and switching out her hands is a little tough on mine but that's ok because that means they will stay on into of being super loose so not really a problem there.The more pearly paints on her is absolutely lovely and I love it reflects her actually self age wise from the series.I definitely can't wait for her Eternal version it's going to be so beautiful without a doubt. :D

Secured packaging & lovely item👍👍👍👍👍

Preciosa y con más detalles imposible. Es tal y como es en La foto. El tamaño es ideal. Cualquier fan de sailor moon te lo agradecerá

Molto bella e originale, io non me ne intendo ma mia figlia è entusiasta, la consiglio per i collezionisti e appassionati del genere.

The figure came earlier than expected, it was official and absolutely stunning! The only complaint I have about the figure would be that right foot is positioned weird but other than that, I'm so pleased with this product!

Mais quelques difficultés avec les jointures des mains, notamment la droite (pour tenir le sceptre). La jonction a effectivement sauté et j'ai eu une peur bleue qu'elle ne soit définitivement cassée mais plus de peur que de mal.On voit également l'évolution de la qualité des figurines depuis la sortie de la première figurine "Sailor Moon" simple, mais je n'ai vraiment rien à redire.
