Action Figure #45: S. H. Figuarts Sasuke Uchiha -He who Bears all Hatred

  The poster boy for emo boys in the 00's.

 Sasuke Uchiha, the final member of Team 7, with him I'm finally done with the Figuarts Naruto figures that I own, at least up to the time of writing this... just here waiting for a new Gaara and a Hinata!
 The guy looks great, his purple skirt-thingie is made of a very soft rubbery plastic that doesn't hinder his articulation at all, and it's made up of two different pieces, which further aids moving his legs around. He comes with like three different types of blades so that you can pose him with his blade in different ways, and you can swap a tiny piece of his cord-belt at the back if you don't want him carrying his blade! There's a lot to play around with here. That said, he comes with a huge, hard-not-to-notice issue... his chest is painted on in his torso, and the flesh-tone they picked doesn't match his head or arms, which makes it rather ugly to look at. It's the only major issue with this figure.
 As for accessories... oh boy, he comes with a lot. You get faceplates with normal eyes, Sharingan eyes, and a Sharing eye with a Rinnegan eye. There's also a Chidori piece, but it goes directly into the wrist peg rather than over a hand, so I opt not to use it. His articulation is buttery smooth, although I did notice that his elbow joints are not as sturdy as Naruto's, although not quite as wobbly as Sakura's. Also, sometimes when twisting his head around his hair-piece might start to come off, albeit not as much as Ichigo's, and you can make his head-neck look extra gappy if you make him look downwards.
 Not quite as good as Naruto's figure, but not quite as questionable as Sakura, Sasuke is a great figure... just try to have him hiding his chest!
