Revoltech Date Masamune

Might as well get this guy seeing as SOA near walmart is moving to richmond, argh! Guildford not the best place to be in huh?^^ Anyway I rejoiced,got the guy I was waitin for and missed, not once, but 4 times in a row^^;;;

"The One-eyed @$$#ole, I mean The One-eyed Dragon"

"That paper is blocking my awesome profile shot!"

"Its still blocking my, ah f**k it"

*Box Content*



Date comes loaded with swords swords and more swords, and a coin of no such service

He also comes with the new container Box to put extra parts in, minus the swords.The Stand, also comes with a new extender piece.

He comes with two (rayp) face, and its pain to switch this face, since you have to pull off the head then the neck, which aint very easy to do.

*In the flesh, or plastic, the figure itself*


Believe me, posing the arms crossed is harder than you think.


That insignia, symbolic or gibberish, either way its cool

"All your Base belongs to me!"

Despite having the regular base he comes with the effect base, also colored in blue

All the swords he has, yet none he can carry simultaneously

"Eat your heart out 00"

I can't remember Date doing a combined sword in the anime, might be the game.

The regular single sword, not so shiny nor long, but its the size of the guys ego handling it that counts

*Date's Sword comparison*


To be fair 00's GN sword II was a gun spatula

Where's Daizengar when you need him?

Wow I have a lot samurai swords, ironic since this is coming from a gun lover

*Hand accessories*

"Rock,Paper,SWORDS!"


The grip hands swivel up and down compared to the other hands that swivels sideways btw extra care is needed in handling, dur. Precaution as don't insert the sword in his hands while its still attached to the arms, better off pulling the hands first then insert it then push it back. Man was that a mouthful^^;


Date's Sheaths can only hold handles unfortunately, but hey its nicely detailed! The sheaths also use double revoltech joints for more pose-ability, bet you though it was stuck on his hips or his belt eh?



That neck is not only awkward but that awkward piece extending behind his collar hurts the ego/awesome factor of the back.

"Kabuto, no not the kamen rider the helmet!"


Nice touch giving the end piece swivel joints

His "Kabuto" has a freaking Gold Plated Crest, not sharp enough to poke someones eye, nor can blind eyes, but it has a good feel in it.

Date incorporates older style revoltech legs, down in time the swivel pelvis was an adoration, but now it is a detested form of articulation. Yes until now I despise such pelvis. The thigh can only move forward, but the leg has the newer double jointed revojoints allowing it some more bend, the feet needs to be slightly angled at the slide to move upward.

*Action poses/swinging a flashy knife*










Insert victim # 1










A message to all who copied and f**ked his character motif

"I cant believe you stooped this low to resort to stock footage"


"Eat your heart out Freddy kruger"

"Eat your heart out Wolverine"




"Striding Kick!!!"

Cant say much but that height of his is highly unforgiving, his still taller chest wise, just not his puny head, but its all for accuracy, yes.

INSERT VICTIM # 2!!!















Authors note:
* God It was a pain posing Alter, her waist joint keeps loosing off, therefore I just had to kill her off.
* Reading Gantz, and got the idea of what would Alter look like disemembered
* Plz dont kill me Saber fans T_T
* This shots are crappy
* This review is too long, and its getting longer with all this crap Im spouting


"I need a third victim"

"PUT YAH GUNS ON!!!"




Ironically for a guy whose first line involved guns, he sure doesnt have a speck of gunpowder on him, unless you count the bullet that went through him. Anyway Deffinitely an insanely good figure to have minus the crappyness of the faces, but makes up for great details, yeah I forgot the chainmail. You can pull off a whole lot of action with this guy, and now I loosen up to those dreaded swivel joints. Sadly No such Harley Davidson horse has been planned with this guy, guess we have to settle with "My little Pony then eh?
