The latest in the Yamaguchi series is 117: Alphonse Elric, the other second protagonist of the anime/manga “Full Metal Alchemist”. This figure, albeit less accessories than most revoltechs, delivers above and beyond the majority of them. With limited revoltech-styled joints, and a mix of more traditional ones, he maintains great poseability while having solid support for his heavier size and molding.

With that, we’ll take a look at some pictures just showing off the figure, and some of his features. Click the thumbnails for larger sizes:

And, lastly, it was actually a friend (Medrifogmatio: His site) who showed me that his front faceplate can come off, and each of his eyes can be manually rotated. I was shown that other revoltechs have done this previously, but it was amazing to see in person. Also shown is the alternate “sad” head that comes with:

Overall, this turned out to be a fantastic looking figure, free of quality issues and flaws. A must have for fans of this series.
