S.H.Figuarts
SUPER SAIYAN BROLY -Exclusive Edition-
REVIEW
NYCC 2022 is now upon us, and this year’s sparkling event exclusive for the Dragon Ball S.H.Figuarts line is ‘Super Saiyan Broly Exclusive Edition’ from the 2018 ‘Dragon Ball Super: Broly’ movie. This Event Exclusive version of Broly is based on the 2019 ‘S.H.Figuarts BROLY -SUPER-’ after he has broken free of Paragus’s control and gone Super Saiyan. This is why this version does not come with the base head or control necklace; instead, we get an extended green aura effect that matches perfectly with the pearlescent paint finish.
Each part of Broly’s clothing is painted with green pearlescent flakes that sparkle and shine in the light, which pairs spectacularly with his green aura! His hair also has the same finish and is in a soft yellow that blends well with the bright green of Broly’s armour.
Broly comes with a normal expression, a teeth gritting annoyed expression, and a full-on screaming expression. Each of the face plates are beautifully sculpted and painted, and are instantly recognisable as the ‘Dragon Ball Super: Broly’. Each of the three face plates feature the blank white pupilless eyes, matching the enraged Super Saiyan look, and they bring the fierce rage of Broly to life in figure form.
Broly comes with two additional pairs of hands, besides the clenched fists, which come pre-attached to the body. One pair is an open palm grabbing pose, and the second pair is a fully open and flat palm pose. Mixing and matching all three pairs of hands easily allows you to recreate those iconic movie scenes!
Tying all of these parts together is the fantastic green aura effect which follows a similar design to the original Tamashii Aura effects. However, to fit the large size of Broly it comes with an extension which is attached to the bottom, and adds extra height to perfectly fit Broly.
For a large figure, Super Saiyan Broly is surprisingly poseable, with each joint having fluid motion and enough resistance to maintain dynamic poses. The large green ear that Broly wraps around his waist is split into three parts. The largest flap at the back can be easily lifted up and out of the way. Each part is also made from a soft plastic that allows for more natural movement when posing.
Just like last year’s ‘S.H.Figuarts SUPER SAIYAN GOD SUPER SAIYAN SON GOKU KAIO-KEN -Event Exclusive Color Edition-‘ release, this year’s offering is a must-have for any Dragon Ball fan. Not only does he have that premium look-and-feel from the pearlescent paint job, but the green tinge matches perfectly with the brand-new aura. If you are at New York Comic Con (October 6-9, 2022) I definitely recommend picking up this 'S.H.Figuarts SUPER SAIYAN BROLY - Exclusive Edition- ' for your Dragon Ball S.H.Figuarts collection!
