TAMASHII NATIONSBandai AGP Kan Colle Kongo Kaini Kankolle Action Figure

this is my 4th A.G.P Kancolle figure... I LOVE Kongo, and this figure is awesome.. so many accessories, and display options. I can almost hear her chipper voice screaming out 'HEY BUCKY It's Kongo!' Once again Bandai Tamashi blows this out of the water! Heres the break down...Molding, Sculpt, Paint 5 stars. The Molding for Kongo is sweet. the stocking/boots are well molded and painted with no bleed overs (on my copy), the pattern on the skirt is sculpted into the soft plastic and painted, with a slight dry brush to bring out the awesome details. The robes on Kongo are done in one sculpt, but they look like layers. the pain on the robe is done well, but on my copy it's a tad sloppy on one of the arm flaps, on the back a slight bleed over of red on white. There are small bow ties on her arms, chest, and belt that you need to take cre of they will pop off and break.. being only held on with a small dab of glue. (SEE PICTURE BELOW) The hair sculpt is out of this world, but once more you need to take care with it, the two buns fit on pegs on the side of the head, and you need to undo these to pull the front part of the hair off to swap the faces. There are hard plastic pieces of her hair that you need to be careful with when posing the head... but all in all this figures molding sculpting and paint are on point and looks like she came straight from the anime.Articulation 4 1/2 starsWhat can I say Bandai Tamashi KNOWS how to do articulation... Kongo's articulation is awesome with a 'few' draw backs. The feet are sweet, with the normal ball hinge, they get great range and are tight to hold the pose. the legs are done well with the thigh swivel at the end of the stocking/boots, AND up at the ball joint under the skirt. the range of the legs are awesome able to kick fully forward, and a bit back, BUT do be careful when moving the legs... hold the hips and move the legs one at a time, on mine the joint was sooo tight i sent to move the left leg and the hips pop off the ball joint to the torso. the skirt moves out of the way, being split into two pieces. the two white straps in the front are softish plastic so they move out of the way, as well as the two straps in the back. the bow on her skirt is a softish plastic... but be careful while posing the legs, you don't wish to break the glue and pop it off the belt. Her arms are on a ball joint into the torso out into a hinge, the swivel is at the hinge under the shoulder, and at the elbow (that's where mine wishes to swivel at) Once more there are little red bows on the arms that can break off by accident so you need to watch out. but her arms have great range even though her hair gets in the way a lot.. the two bangs are hard plastic so they won't get out of the way, and theres two more strands of hair on the back that are hard plastic as well. though the two big 'tails' of hair are articulated with a ball hinge swivel, allowing you to move them or turn them to get more movement from the head.Full Armor Articulation 5 starsOk here's Kongo's Ship parts... The Kongo Ship is AWESOME.. they are attached to the stern via swivel hinge joint, and to the hull bu the same swivel hinge. the front hull parts are attached by the same swivel hinge joints, and they snap into place, so do be sure to attach them correctly. its hard to pull them apart... I put the left hull on the right side by accident. WARNING.. there are two small gun turrets in the middle of the hull, they do move back and forth but do be careful, the joints on mine were tight that I accident put a stress mark in one of them. The 4 turrets are able to turn 360degree, and each of them are on their own swivel platform. The front hull pieces are cool, they can be posed how you like, and if you turn them on the sides they can interlock to make a shield in front of Kongo.Accessories 5 starsI'm not counting the Full Armor Kongo Ship as an accessory, that's a given... Kongo comes with a lot of them though... she has 4 faces, 1 normal face, 1 Hurt/sad face, 1 Happy yelling face, and 1 Angry yelling face. YES the Happy Yelling and Angry face look alike... you can tell the difference between them by the eye brows. Kongo comes with 6 sets of hands. A pair of wide spread hands, Slightly relaxed hands, Tea Saucer holding hands, Fist hands, Open Fist Hands to hold things like Yamato-Kai Umbrella, and a Tea Cup Holding Hand. Yes Kongo comes with a Tea cup, and saucer accessory. She also comes with the normal Kancolle Display stand with two articulated rods, and two clamps. (As seen in the picture)All in all I am loving this A.G.P. Kancolle line... and If you like it too, I suggest to add Kongo to your Fleet, I having so much fun posing her with my Yamato-Kai, Musashi-Kai, and Naka-Kai.

All the joints works well except the sleeve got in the way a lot, overall she's lovelyAnd now I can't stop drinking Earl Grey Tea, it become a habit now.. Help!

This is a very good quality product. Came a bit late because of COVID-19 but that's not the seller's fault. $90 is a bit steep for something like this but it has a lot of customization options and poses. Overall, very good.

Lots of little parts. Very nicely put together. I would have loved playing with when I was 12, but it is way too fragile looking. Beautiful model.

The gift is very beautiful, the packing is safe, safe and fast to arrived，I liked it.

Checked all parts, fits and works.One layer bubble wrapped. I understand figure is not so fragile but I would be happier if the bubble wrap is thicker.Overall: Good. Will visit again.

This figure is what I've been anticipating for, and what an unfortunate surprise. This figure certainly did come early, I will give you that, but instead of being a brand new figure it turned out to be used and the fact the figure has a defect on its neck. How unfortunate.

loved this figure! awesome features and even arrived a few days early! great buy!

You could pose them in ranger poses!

Like I said before got 4 of them and adding more and got this one fast also:).

艤装の格好良さに惹かれて、妻に内緒で購入。色ムラもなく、飾って楽しい一品です。表立って飾れないけど・・・。

ゲームではなかなか手に入らなくて困ったものでしたがその分思い入れも強い上に出来も良く、大変にお気に入りのフィギュアになりました。副砲とかアンテナとか華奢だったりとがっているパーツが多いので箱がないと収納に困りそうになりますが、ジップロック的な袋にいれるとしても、うまく艤装を折りたたんで内側にまとめれば結構いい感じに保管できます。気になる所としては足首の柔軟性が少ないので自然に立っている感じにするのが地味に大変です。なので、スタンドで少し浮かせたポーズのほうがそれっぽいですね。

「艦これのAGPシリーズの中で一番出来の良いのは？」　多分多くの方が金剛と回答するのではないでしょうか私もそう思いますただ品質管理には若干の疑問が残ります先日ビスマルクを入手したのでケースに追加したのですが、ポーズの関係で互いの艤装が干渉してしまいます仕方が無いので2体ともケースから出して干渉しないようポーズの調整をしていたのですが、ふと金剛に気になる箇所を発見しましたご存じの通り金剛の腰帯とスカートは黒ですが、何か妙にテカってる？？で、マジマジと観察した訳ですが……ビスマルクの砲塔同様に瞬着による白化でしたorz上半身と下半身を繋ぐ箇所を覆う帯の結び目（リボン）を瞬着で本体に接着してあったのですが、その下が派手に白化しておりました指で軽く擦ると簡単に削れたので綿棒で丁寧に擦って掃除したところ、ほぼ目立たないレベルまで回復できました普段は隠れていたのでてっきり反射だと思っていましたがある意味ハイライト塗装だったと……これで金剛の評価を覆すつもりは無いですが品質管理がお粗末過ぎてかなり脱力しましたよまぁ、個体差もあると思いますが各提督方も確認してあげて下さい
