And now we reach one of the best humanoid figures that I've got: Raoh 200X

In Fist of the North Star, Raoh was the main villain for a really large part of the series- the unstoppable conqueror who rode on a black horse. There have been several action figures of him before (Including another 200X one), but this is the first one to truly do him justice.

Size- 8" tall, at least.

Sculpt- The perfect Raoh, The facial expression captures his personality with a smug, arrogant smirk. The folds in his clothing, the details in his armor and muscles- it's all there! He LOOKS like an imposing, powerful villain!

Paint Job- Fantastic. I can't find anything to complain about.

Articulation: This is where the figure really shines. Sporting 24 points of articulation, you can pose Raoh basically however you want.

Accessories- He comes with a helmet and a capoe. The helmet is great, but the cape is where my main complaint with the figure comes in. It comes in two pieces, and you have to remove his shoulderpads before attaching ot- it's hard to get the cape on, and it arguably weighs more than HE does. It's really hard plastic, and makes it difficult to Pose Raoh at all while he's wearing it.

Overall: Raoh also comes in a really impressive window box that falls to pieces when you open it, so his package isn't savable. However, this figure totally impresses me: 4.7 out of 5 (the cape is a big problem)

That is one kick-arse figure! Now I want one. Thanks for the pics. The combination of incredible detail and tons of articulation is a real rarity. How heavy is this figure? About the same as an average Romando?

A little heavier, I'd say. His cape weighs a TON, too.
