Action figures, Movies, Games, TV shows, things I like, Things I hate, weird news old or recent... they're fair game for my rants.

Jesus Tittyfucking Christ! Forgot I'm reviewing Jesus himself... Yeah... Trigger warning:
This review could be seen as offensive or even blasphemous. If you feel offended by irreverent views of Jesus H. Christ, you should NOT read this review.
Jesus: Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them. For it is to such as these that the kingdom of heaven belongs. Karen: Mr. Jesus, you need to leave now. Mr. Nefty is an evil man and he will mock you! Kaylee: He threatened to bring Hal Jordan to my review! Jesus: Wait, Hal Jordan, as in Green Lantern? That's not so... wait that's the kiddie diddler lantern. I need to go Belmont on this Nefty.
Now, before I start: I understand that it's a sensitive topic surrounding the figure... there are over 45K sects that claim He's Divine. I've mocked gods from other religions, so, an irreverent review of the Christian Demigod or ⅓ of Carrie Ann Moss is fair game.
Which you all know I RARELY BUY because they Usually stink with screws on the back of the figures... bit they got better with the Power Rangers before losing the license to Hasbro...
OK where was I... Dragon Ball GT
But there is only one figure I would buy... Super Saiyajin 4 Son Goku... or maybe 2 because SSJ4 Vegeta is needed for symmetry. Oh no... I need a Frieza, so I can make Monkey jokes... or worse LATAm DB Jokes.
Wait... WHOSE RESPONSIBLE THIS!? Spike did you let the MuTeens in? Don't lie to me... kick them out, Spike!
So, Goku discovers puberty as he grows up, hair grows in strange places and a certain appendage almost has a life of its own.rcently made Canon by Daima... but let's Do an instant transmission and hit the review.
Articulation
For A budget line it's not that bad... But at the same time it isn't good either. My figure feels crappie than an SH Figuarts, But better than a bootleg. If I were to use politically incorrect terms, I would call it a retarded SH Figuarts. The engineering has some decent ideas mostly inspired by SH Figuarts. It's the execution where this figure fails. There are dropping hips, butterfly shoulders, but they don't work properly..
When your Goku can't Kamehameha correctly, you got a problem.
3.0
Paint and sculpt
This is better than Ukog, but Being better than a bootleg is not saying much. Again, this is a budget figure and for that.There won't be that many paint applications. It's obvious that this isn't a figuarts, but it kinda blends in.
4.0
Accessories
3 extra hands.
Normally I'd complain about the lack of accessories, but when the figure is just $20 in comparison to a $70 SH Figuarts (retail) I
Have to be fair.
4.0
Overall
Super Saiyan 4 Goku gets a 3.67 as his final score. With older dragon ball SH Figuarts figures going over the hundreds, getting a couple of these for $60 is a steal. ie: Z 17 and 18 go for a few hundreds while both Z 17 and 18 go under $60 from scalpers. If you got a few SH Figuarts you could use some Dragon Stars in the background. Personally, I won't be very invested into this line because the articulation issues kinda ruined them for me.
