Review: Banpresto Gintama DX Figure Volume 1 "Gintoki Sakata"

Character: Gintoki Sakata

Anime: Gintama

Manufacturer: Banpresto
Classification: DX Figure

Material: ABS, PVC

Release Date: Feb 2012

Height: approx. 15cm

Character Info: is a Founder of the Yorozuya, a highly skilled samurai and the main protagonist of Gintama. He enjoys eating sweet things and picking his nose.

The box art in front is nicely done. It shows the full picture of the figure.

Left & Right side has the same box art. I like the box art here, it's like a movie poster.

The back shows Gintoki & Hijikata which are both in the Volume 1.

Top of the box. On the lower left, you will see the Sunrise Logo.

Bottom of the box. Nice glossy box. You can barely see me in the box.

The content of the box is covered with this Carton.

Of course, the Figure and the accessories are each sealed in a different plastic.

The figure itself is in 1 Piece. The wooden Katana is separate and the base.

The figure pose like this and has no articulation.

The Wooden Katana is known to be Bokutou

The base is just a simple black with the Gintama Logo.

The emotion of Gintoki is nicely copied in this Figure.

I don't know if the pose is Anime accurate. But this looks good indeed.

The belt is nicely done. It has the feel of floating like when he is doing his stance in the Anime.

The dress is anime accurate. With the falling right sleeve.

The coloring of the dress is nicely done.
I believe that Gin's dress doesn't have that Green color over the waves.

Banpresto really did a great job on the hair.
The stress in the muscles is just right for his pose.

Here is the full body picture of the figure with the box.

Overall, the details is nicely done. The base is simple, it works fine with Gin's black boots. I would say, this figure a must buy especially to the Gintama Fans. Hoping for their next releases we'll have Shinpachi, Kagura & maybe Sadaharu. I would love to complete the main protagonists of Gintama.

So, that's it for now. I hope you enjoyed the review. Till the next time. Thank you for viewing.
