No Haki needed to handle it.
Eneru used to be my favorite One Piece character... until
Sabo came along. He looked SO cool and then he gained fire powers.... making him even
better. Figuarts' One Piece line has been...
underwhelming, to say the least, so I was a bit scared of getting this figure...
Well, the sculpt is beautiful. While I
thought I preferred his original black costume... After playing and posing this Sabo a bit, I think I might like this white vested look
better! They nailed his look, and I love the bright, vibrant color of his plastic. His coat is, much like other figures in the line, solid plastic, but while he doesn't include a stand... I was able to
balance him pretty well and getting him on some cool poses with the coat on. He comes with an alternate head, for the top-hat, four alternate pair of hands, four face plates and a DLC faceplate for base Luffy. He also comes with his pipe... but sadly, no fire effects.
His articulation is
fantastic. His elbows and knees
look double jointed, but they are single jointed. The way they work gives him great range on both pairs of limbs anyways. He has swivels on his thighs and biceps, and his boots can swivel 180 degrees. His ab crunch and waist lie on ball joints with very generous range on each. While he has no butterfly joints, his shoulders connect to his torso via ball pegs, giving him plenty of movement. Both of his arms kept coming off, but I coated them in super glue and now they stay firmly in place as I move them. Lastly, the coat can be removed, and both sleeves are articulated for more dynamic poses. He is almost as tall as Bucky Cap.
I think this Sabo figure is as close to perfect as it gets. I love him, and has been so much fun to play with! For as many bad Zoro and Luffy figures as Figuarts is releasing... they are also coming out with bangers such as Kidd and Sabo!
