Toy Review: S.H. Figuarts Space Sheriff Gavan type-G

After some detailed inspection on the figure, parts of the S.H. Figuarts Space Sheriff Gavan type-G, obviously came from its predecessor. Both Gavans share the perfect shinny chromed armor on top of the plastic. Also most of the molds are carbon copy of the other. The difference between both lies on Gavan type-G’s chest, resembling the look from the film. This blue chest piece accents are painted on top of a translucent plastic rather than a sticker. 

Type-G includes the same number of accessories namely, 6 hands mainly for his signature poses and for the swords. Two swords are included, first is a simple form and another with a molded Gavan Dynamic effect. Finally is a replaceable head with blue-lighted eyes feature.

 Since both came from the same mold, articulation should have the same feature and right amount of joints. Most of the pieces are identical, to the point you can share accessories and parts should one got lost or broken. For collectors, you now have an option to either get both or choose any of the two. I am sure that collectors and metal hero fans would not think twice in getting type-G despite its Tamashii Web Exclusive price tag. More to this from the video review below.
