Skull Kid Figurine Unboxing

                                     

According to The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, the world needed to be saved in 72 hours. Well, this figurine took 2 weeks to arrive so it's a good job there isn't an angry moon crashing toward us.

The figurine however, is finally here so let's take a closer look!

The figurine comes packaged in a very plain white box, as Nintendo seem to package all of their figurines/trophies/toys, but it would have been nice to see some graphics on the box to liven things up. Once opened you'll find the figurine in a plastic cover which is easy to remove. 

The figurine itself is beautifully detailed but it seems quite fragile. It's made of plastic and upon closer inspection there's a been slight break on part of the Skull Kid's hat, which is a bit of a shame, so my advice is to take care and handle this figurine as little as possible.

                               

The base has the Majora's Mask logo across it, but the figurine can't be removed from the base.

All in all the figurine is great, with the detail on the mask being exceptionally well done, and it was an unexpected bonus, so I'm really pleased. ^_^

Now I leave you with a view of the rear.

Mario and Luigi Sofubi Figures

I don't think I've posted pictures of these Mario & Luigi Sofubi figures before; my wife got them for me for Christmas a few years ago. 

From what I can gather, Sofubi is a kind of soft vinyl toy produced in Japan. I've kept them in their packaging, as I don't have anywhere to stand them, so they're hung up on the shelves next to the SNES games.

Day 91 of 100 Happy Gaming Days: Transformers High Score 100

I picked up this little Transformer a couple of years ago at a flea market as I thought he looked pretty awesome.

After doing some research it turns out he's an Autobot named High Score 100, who transforms from a joypad into a gorilla. It's quite a nifty little design, his head lifts up by pushing the little lever between the D-Pad and Buttons, but unfortunately this one in particular appears to be missing his shoulder plates.

Despite the missing pieces I think High Score 100 looks great, even the joysticks move, and he takes pride of place on our shelves next to the Playstation games. Now they just need to release a version of High Score 100 that actually connects to consoles, THAT WOULD BE AMAZING!!!
