Toy Review: Tamashii Effect Burning Flame (Red & Blue)

The Tamashii Burning Flame effect from Bandai fills the gap in the line for a universal accessory that can be used in any Tamashii Nation products. These bring the needed burning charisma to the already popular brands such as S.H. Figuarts, Soul of Chogokins, D-Arts and alike.

Toy Review: SH Figuarts Tajadol Effect Parts Set

My hair on my arms just stood up when I first saw the complete Tajadol combo. Coupled with the henshin jingle and Akira Kushida's masculine and course old rock voice, I was lead into a flabbergasted trance. Then came announcing its SHF figure. Tajadol in my opinion is the most anticipated character to come in a toy form. I couldn't explain to myself why I am so amazed. After my review of the Tajdol combo a few months back, my excitement heightened even more when Bandai announced its SHF Tajadol Effect Parts Set. Like a kid itching for ice cream, I was set to get this immediately to my fellow SHF and OOOs fans.

The first thing that will take your breath away is its box design. The box is by far the widest SHF box you'll see so far. Its reason will be discussed further in this review. Tajadol Combo's photo with all of its glory, is printed at the face of the box - no windows to see its content just like any other exclusives. Yes, this is an exclusive.

Inside, the set includes the peacock feather effect which is the reason why the box is that wide. It is a laminated plastic and creates that luminous effect when you place in front of a light source. See the photos I've taken below. Nice. Just take care of the peacock feather as it is said that it could break off easily or worse shatter into pieces.
