Skull Knight has arrived!
This is the old one though. It’s loose and without the box and shield. Only figure, sword, and alternate hands. I can always make the shield myself. But this is a steal just for $87.
With this in hand, I want to compare it with another figures.
This thing is a beast! Standing tall around 35cm. Leg joints to the hip are really strong and ratchety. I guess the previous owner only had it in standing pose. It’s so hard to bend the legs, hard enough to think if I move it, it will break. But I have to bend it. I need to. So I pour hot water to the hip and leg joints and force it to move. And crack!…. The legs can be moved easily after the “breaking” and still ratchety. Guess why I have to take the risk of breaking the figure?
BECAUSE OF THIS!!
I had that horse for a long time, but never used it because it’s a GIANT HORSE! I bought it to help a friend, he wanted to get rid of it and he needed the money. I saw the horse before in his house, but I forgot it was that big. So when the horse arrived, I’m like, hell this big as$ horse is too big! A normal 1/6 scale figure will look ridiculous sitting on that thing. So I just tossed it away.
Until Skull Knight arrived.
Never thought about the horse before. Then after I googled the review of the figure, I saw the image of him on a horse, and thought “Oh wow, if only I have a big as$ horse for him to ride.” And then it struck me. “OOH I DO HAVE ONE!!”
So I took it and remember the whole I have to bend the legs on that figure? Yes it’s for this and look at that. It’s great! And now I have to make the horse armor and all.
Comparison with Guts below.
With LimToys Arthur Morgan, also in need of a horse.
All of them standing.
Something a lot of reviewer lacks on their review. A measurement with a ruler!
Without the perspective playing tricks on you, I listed all the height:
Guts: 33cm
Arthur: 31cm
Skull Knight: 35cm
Giant Horse: 36cm
Thank you all for reading. I will be doing more custom of Berserk character. Starting with the pre-Berserker Armor Guts. It had a newer updated style of drawing from Miura sensei and different structure of facial anatomy compared to Golden Age Guts or earlier Black Swordsman Guts.
Long live Berserk!
