SIC Kiwami Wolf Orphnoch

Logically, today I would show off SHF Piccolo, but I just had the urge to open a new toy today, so here it is: a SIC Kiwami Wolf Orphnoch. Orphnochs originated from the Kamen Rider Faiz series. They are supposed to be the next evolution of humans. From the Faiz series, some humans can become Orphnochs after death and some can be created after a human is attacked by an existing Orphnoch. After a human becomes an Orphnoch, they basically gain superpowers. The Orphnochs can also change back to their previous human forms at will.

I actually just got this Wolf Orphnoch earlier this month in my monthly haul from Amiami. I really like how the Orphnoch looks in SIC styling, they are a perfect match. The details on this tiny figure (about 4") is amazing. The only accessories that came with this figure is an extra pair of half open hands (the ones that came with the figure are closed fists). I get the same feeling every time I open a SIC Kiwami figure and it's the feeling of impressiveness. I am just impressed at the level of details, the wide range of articulation, and the amazing quality at this price point (around 1000 yen), which makes me think how poorly made the North America 4" figures are made (Marvel Universe, Joes, SW) in comparison with these SIC's.

    @Dennis: Nope, this is surprisingly an action figure with tons of articulation!
