These Kinnikuman character figures are from Medicos Entertainment. The Super Action Statue series. I have to say, these figures are well done. Not only for the multiple points of articulation, but for the likeness(detail) of the characters. They pretty much capture the manga style. Especially Buffaloman followed by Robinmask and they could have done a bit of a better job with Warsman’s face. But still good enough. They also captured the correct scale of the characters. Meaning Buffaloman is taller than the other two and they got the height right. The articulation is located at points where they should be located at and not, say like the middle of their thigh where it can misalign the muscle definition when posing them.
Each figure comes with a base along with mats for the base that would have the character’s name or just a plain mat. Also included are multiple sets of different posed hands and alternate heads for Buffaloman, face for Warsman and damage & non damage on Robinmask’s mask. The figures also come in different colors. Manga Color, anime color and alternate colors for mega collectors/fans like myself.
I’m not sure why Medicos has not released The Kinnikuman Soldier and Kinnikuman Super Phoenix as of yet. It would be a bummer if they had to cancel and shelve them.
In my opinion, these are some very cool action figures from the Kinnikuman series…..Much better than the Romandoh’s original line and G-Muscle series.
