Action Force Senshi

[@Woody_222]

Definitely started off as my favorite figure of the wave, but then I got them in hand & realized sidewinder was the best out of that wave 💯✌🏽

[@Toyenhancer]

@@Woody_222 I gotta pick up a sidewinder, he looks pretty cool

[@DaredevilDave1975]

@@Toyenhancer yeah, sidewinder is a good one

[@l87deathtron]

Senshi got the Tism or just walked in on something he shouldn't have. That haircut reminds me of that one friend who cuts his own hair😅

Make Receding Hairlines Great Again! Honestly, I think the face looks very good. A little calmer than what I would expect under a samurai helmet. But not a bad fig. Try your hand at sculpting to get a top knot going.

Dam 1000 yard stare, on a military action figure. Trying to escape reality😂

[@ryantorney5581]

I suppose the upside of not liking a head sculpt is that there are so many replacement options. Of course, no one enjoys shelling out extra money to “ correct “ such things. I had not seen this character before this video. I don’t think I’m rushing for this guy. Cheers

[@Toyenhancer]

@@ryantorney5581 yes I was disappointed on several aspects of him… it gets worse as you play with him😂

[@norcal_voodoo]

Looks like Ezra Miller

[@robertott9083]

Holy crap he does!!! LoL 😂

[@falcon048]

Yeah, I had to roll that head sculpt too. Thankfully, all of Valaverse is compatible. So I used one of the masked heads from another figure. Sunshi is basically Budo from G.I.Joe. that was why I got him. Mine has a loose boot cut on the right leg. It has this horrible gap, but what can you really do? It seems like series 5 has some uncharacteristic flaws we generally don't expect from Valaverse.

[@CrimsonCobraCommander]

i got one action force so far i like to get a couple more when i can we will see how do we enter to win the diorama Mind Bender lab.

[@Toyenhancer]

@@CrimsonCobraCommander locate the G.I. Joe classified diorama build video… there you will find a secret code that you need to comment on the chat in that video👍 good luck👍

I knew from the promo pics i didnt want senshi even though i collect martial arts figures it just didnt look good to me .

[@MayumiC-chan9377]

As someone who lived in a military family and married to a veteran i get a little annoyed with overly visualized cultural references to ones heritage! My older brothers were JGSDF and then SAT Metropolitan police. If i designed Senshi i would remove the Kabuto and give him a more advanced tactical helmet (i know my husband’s terminology) give him a HOWA Type-20 and made him semi bald. Even more put the scars of combat on him.

[@JasonWarren-e7n]

Looks like a Hasbro head sculpt 😅

[@bobbywold2311]

I don't think I've ever seen an action figure with a hairpiece or what did Deadpool call it a hair system

[@Toyenhancer]

@@bobbywold2311 😂😂👊 that’s exactly what it looks like😂😂

[@lenscrivanich1885]

Yeah other reviewers had the same issue with the night vision hinge. I think I'll order the Night Senshi Exclusive from BBTS. I like the uniform better in dark colors. But the head has to go!

[@johnlogan9427]

The only Action Force head sculpts that don't look at least a little goofy are Trigger and Eclipse. It really gets bad with the expressive head sculpts. Lol! This is the worst wave yet. Without his gear, Atlas just looks like some random construction worker, and Seige looks like a construction foreman. All he needs is a F250 and a hardhat. Senshi looks like he's missing chromosomes. The arms on that new buck look huge compared to the chest. It doesn't look bad with armor on though. Sidewinder is the only exception. Even the Praetorian lost a little of it's cool factor once I got it in hand. It's sculpted well, it just feels like it's from a different toyline. I don't know, I like the line, but this wave seems mediocre. Action Force needs specialists, because it's starting to get boring. Well, I guess a samurai is a specialist. Lol!

[@Venom-cd7tw]

I agree 100%. Valaverse is the epitome of throwing crap at the wall and hoping it sticks. Most generic designs ever and alot of times outright shamelessly ripping of other properties. Not to mention how the sculpt keeps going backwards with the odd proportions all over the place and gappy legs. I hope lines like SKELETRON and Monster Force start pumping stuff out more regularly to kill this terribly toxic line.

[@jenniferferguson751]

Valaverse really shit the bed with the last batch of head sculpts. They early stuff was better

[@Rakerong]

Definitely the disappointment of the entire wave. The others were lacking in paint and washes, but the potential was there to make them awesome. Senshi...I had to ditch like 85% of the figure and used parts of what remained to make cooler customs/kitbashes. The hairline and the weird, blank face expression just didn't do any favors for him.

[@Toyenhancer]

@@Rakerong 💯👍 I’m gonna try a head swap and ditch the vest

[@greatgibby]

At the risk of upsetting a snowflake I'll go a little easier on how I describe this face sculpt... I think it looks a little too "metro $€xual". Bobby kind of blew it with that sculpt. The dude looks like he would rather do his nails over shooting at the bad guys. This wave 5 has been the weakest wave for me so far. It's the first one that I didn't back at all and haven't really been too excited about getting the figures with the exception of a couple. Hopefully the rest of the stuff for 25 is much better. Oh and by the way, the points are for getting mail away figures. A new color way Pandora is the latest one and the previous one was a vacation looking Condor. And on a final note... Do yourself a favor and ditch the stupid iPhone. Android is a much better phone, especially if you're going to be making videos with it. Apple products suck and are way too over priced!

[@Astro319]

I don't like the face on this one, he looks like he has the flu or something. 😂

[@Toyenhancer]

@@Astro319 😂😂💯 but if he sneezed, his hairpiece would fall off🤷🏻‍♂️😂

[@Astro319]

@Toyenhancer lol Valaverse VERY hit or miss for me. This one = miss, ever since they revealed this wave I thought this face sculpt look jank. I do want a couple Garrison Cavalry guys tho.

[@Rakerong]

@@Astro319 The Garrison Cavalry is so good! The gray/black/maroon combination just works so well. I am tempted to place a third order for more of them lol.

[@Astro319]

@@Rakerong yeah I have seen a few people do some pics with 'em on IG and they look great!
