Equipment: Previews Exclusive 1000toys Synthetic Human Female Version Action Figure
A couple of years back I was able to do a
review for the Synthetic Human figure from 1000toys and it blew me away. I have loved and collected action figures for as long as I can remember and the one thing that draws me to a figure is poseability. I know that this is my opinion, but for me poseability equals playability. The Synthetic Human level of poseability is amazing, clocking in at approximately 29 points.
This time we are reviewing the Synthetic Human Previews Exclusive female figure. My first impression of this figure is that it makes me think of the manga/anime Ghost in the Shell. This figure definitely gives off a Major Kusanagi vibe. There is just something about android figures such as this one that always makes me think of manga/anime. I am probably not the only one that thinks anime right off the bat. Honestly if it wasn’t so cost prohibitive I would love to make an army or recreate the warehouse scene from I Robot.
