Sorry I am a wee bit late with my comments , first chance I have had to watch the video on this brilliantly impressive figure and pod. Thanks for the background on this guy , I will need to hold my hand up and say I am not familiar with him. It gives me the opportunity to judge the piece purely on aesthetics and functions. I really do like this a lot I think lit up with all the bells and whistles it displays so well🔥🤩. Really appreciate that you track down and collect these lesser known niche pieces or I would have missed out on so many impressive pieces you have in your collection. Thanks as always for your thoughts and showcasing a tremendous pick up, sorry about your customs issue , I think the majority of collectors have been there and feel your pain😤 enjoy what’s left of the weekend and as always mind how you go 👍
Thanks as always…comments…support etc😉 Absolutely 💯 a bit left of centre this one, although I had heard of and seen Astroboy I didn’t really know about his full significance to the Anime and Manga world until I did some digging. It’s the level of detail and craftsmanship that really blow me away with this piece plus all you need is space and the thing displays itself…no need to worry about angles, posing or lighting. So glad you enjoyed the video, as always take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Hi mate, absolutely 💯 it was a long boat trip but damn it was worth it! I knew it was going to be good but the level of detail and the machining and paint is next level. Just a pity that about the feet and stability when every thing else has been so perfectly thought through. It has nearly fallen a few times and it’s taken years of my life expectancy 🤣 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 The only issue I had was some small black “scuff” marks where the inner part of the red leg sections meet. I haven’t tried to remove them as they are barely visible and I dont want to risk damaging the high gloss paint finish. Take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏻
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 Good question 🤔…I don’t own the original so have nothing to compare it too. Looking at photographs and reviews I can’t see any easily noticeable differences….maybe its in the paint applications or construction 🧐 It might be fairer to call this a reissue rather than a 2.0. Take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏻
@@goFigure623 thanks. i havent' seen any other comparisons for astroboy 1.0 and 2.0 online unlike the GB 1.0 and 2.0. And those are just the preview figs not yet the official offering

Hey mate, got mine from Will too and it was definitely worth the wait. Bit nervous about the balance as well, but what an amazing fig/statue!

Looks Fantastic all lit up : }
Absolutely 💯 take care of yourself and happy collecting👍🏻
Do you have color defects out of the box? Especially, the rims where metal pieces against the metal parts.

what's the difference between this and the 1.0?
