Thanks for pointing us towards some leg fixes and that effects kit thats coming out, i had no idea it was a thing but it looks great

Will we ever get a good articulated One Piece figure that isn’t in the hundreds range? 🤔

Picked one up from GameStop today and the joints are all actually very tight, wonder if the batch that went straight to US big box retailers was a later one

Prowler.mp3 I hope you're there for the Ideon video I plan on doing. I just want it to be perfect. I have so many expectations for it.

GeaR(ewatching) 5th(time)

[@Yeetymcspeedy]

the one i picked up at walmart is like perfect and has no qc issues that i know of

[@moldfv]

I hope they make a fixed one because I really like the visuals for this luffy

[@toyshelv]

I'd love one in alt colors, or or a much older look.

[@moldfv]

Ye I just got this figure and mine wasn’t as loose as yours so I’m happy about that😊

[@Jesterclown17]

I'd personally love to see an updated pre-time skip version, something about the vest look I just really like. Also, love your avatar. One of my favorite Leo moments in the 2012 series.

[@moldfv]

Thx and I agree :)

[@Miyu-im3gb]

Luffy is being tortured 😢

[@toyshelv]

It's like when Spongebob had the Suds

[@funlitegun2656]

Love it😃 Love the Mod you do to make it more Articulated and it worked😍 Amazing video

[@cherry-kun9783]

Great, review! And thank you for showing the knee fixes. I think this is the first channel I see solving this problem. I'm seriously considering getting this Luffy, but that joint problem turned me off soooooo much, now I know it can be solved. What a shame about the leg pegs, though S: You would think that SHF woul do better. Making those pegs the only support for the legs to cut cost? What is this? the 1980's?

[@toyshelv]

It just doesn't make any sense! The limitations are take it or leave it, but those hips are just bleh. Especially when whatever team just did Chainsaman knocked it out pretty much flawlessly. Zoro this month, so I would say look out for reviews of him and see if he's ass headscratching as Luffy, or a much better improvement. If only Luffy is bad, I can work with that.

[@cloudz1680]

YES ANOTHER ONE PIECE UPLOAD

[@SemiColin-Yt]

Thanks for that paper idea it is now uses on a majority of my copy of this figures joints 😂

[@airoh_collects]

The hip might be loose because you put it in hot water or it’s probably just qc issues

[@trixahon]

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THE FUCKING GOAT HAS ARRIVED

[@gfueloniichangfuelloniicha3221]

great toe polish on this Luffy model. you can see every individual toenail in great detail. perfect for sucking. Another fantastic review ToyShelv!

[@toyshelv]

Major foot improvement

[@diegolaradiaz8948]

So SHF basically put the equivalent a limiter on the knees? Why in the world would they do that? Reminds me on how 90% of dragon ball 2.0 figures had that stupid ab limiter that would allow the torso to go deeper, granted it was a super easy fox since all you had to was snip it off but not something that should even be a problem

[@toyshelv]

they did a limited on Chanisawmans thighs as well for no reason, I don't know what their deal is

[@ricetrippycreeps]

Picked one up from Target today and I think they fixed the leg issue? Mine are actually very tight at the hips and knees.

[@portalmast1177]

My copy is from target and the hips don't want to fall off. I think they fixed it

[@007psyren]

Still think they should of added the black cape! Total missed opportunity 🤦‍♂️

[@freddyg8585]

THE review I was looking forward to here

[@mrandursun]

It's wild how loose the hips are on yours. Mine are so tight they feel like they're gonna break when I move them

[@toyshelv]

I'd tell you to loosen them, but I won't because the alternative is this. Simultaneously the tightness from plastic on plastic is so concerning for shearing.

[@jarosbodytko6462]

I’m really surprised so many people have such negative experiences with this Luffy. With mine, nothing pops off and I can get him in a great Gear 2 pose, even without mods. Guess it’s really a QC thing

[@zyshonneskygaming2556]

Thanks for the help dude! Now I can fix the problem I have with my S.H Figuarts Luffy

[@lolo27234]

bummer about the legs at lest there are fixes out there also sentinel is like always 10 years ahead of everyone else its crazy

It really shocked me how so many of the newer elements on the Luffy are actually... really old innovations

[@lucianle2306]

The gear five Lucy has been the wires in the arms and legs 😊

[@Snacks256]

Tamashii doesn't seem to iterate, everything is done from scratch for whatever reason. A figure has fantastic leg and hip articulation? Get ready to never see it again outside of that line.

[@toyshelv]

Totally! It feels like every subline is an entirely different team that doesn't communicate across brands at all.

[@red_eye4847]

love an honest reviewer

[@toyshelv]

I wanted to love this figure so badly too!

[@jimbartos6010]

my luffy dosent break for some reason

[@thedformula]

Another amazing review! Just got mine in the mail the other day and while my Luffy wasn't as...flimsy, as yours was, I agree that the lack of poseability on his bottom-half is a huge let-down. It seems that early reviews of the SHF Zoro is also facing a similar issue. I really hope this line is able to turn things around soon, because this release is a bummer!

[@Oscar_D_Spy]

Idk about you but on the g5 pics it kinda looks like the hip joint is different plus the belt is a separate piece (actually the hip worries me because it looks like it has less forward/outward articulation) 🤔

[@toyshelv]

The Monkeys Paw curles to a close. My SHF One Piece wish is granted, at what cost.

[@ruslovelys2960]

I’m planning on purchasing the Battle Franky, ever plan on doing a review?

[@toyshelv]

I'd love to, probably in the next few months sometime. I highly recommend it under $300

[@supershadixboom4040]

I dont get why they purposely restrict range with the little plastic bits on some figures,like whats the point??? Its honestly a waste of plastic lol

[@coatrak1357]

Don't understand how they messed this up

[@portalmast1177]

The target version has the legs fixed

[@Jaidem2346]

Mine just came in, but before I've been an avid viewer of tour vids. It must be a new release or something because my legs on my figure are fine, however, the waist joint is very loose :/

[@QmanVr1]

That Mihawk looks sick

[@NoahBerzerk]

i was going buy this but it got removed from my local figure site :(

[@voorphy5521]

If u happen to have the variable action heroes shanks please do a review plssssssssss 🙏🙏🙏🙏🥺🥺🦒

[@toyshelv]

You know, that's a good idea.

[@cptwigglefuffle]

I would love to see comparisons to the Variable Action Heroes one piece figures if you have those Bern thinking of getting the Ace for my best friend

[@toyshelv]

I really should, the thing about VAH is they're all a pain in the butt and loose. In 1 way or another. I recommend Ace, the new Wano Luffy and Zoro, and any of the few antagonist characters. I don't recommend their TS Luffy at all, hes just terrible.

[@cptwigglefuffle]

@@toyshelv yeah I've seen some videos of the white beard and it's really limited articulation wise for seemingly no reason

[@StopMotion_YT]

Hey there! Awesome review dude. I do have Luffy, and I already modded the knee joints itself, but I’m having trouble finding a way to remove the back white piece from his pants. Do I just take them off or is there another way? How did you do it?

[@RenikkoEclipse]

Ah, I'm sorry about the issues, im really lucky to have all the joints be nice and tight

[@toyshelv]

I'm glad not every copy is bad, and I tried to make the video sort of acknowledge that it isn't necesarrily eeeverryones that will be bad, but that the design does lend itself to problems inherently.

[@johnrodneysantos9879]

hello may i request a size comparison of shf zoro and VAF Mihawk?

[@kaiju_boi9]

I have this figure. It ruptures itself everytime I lay my index on it. But it's nice I guess. They should've added effect parts and more accesories like Haki hands.

[@SoupLover21]

This OST is amazing... i only remember it from OPPW3 however, thats probably because it's my favorite pirate warriors game... although gear 5th is really fun.

[@smell_the_magic_9789]

So i have this figurine too and the parts from mine do not fall off. Maybe there are differences in the production

[@dawnthehedgehog2891]

At this point, they just need to do a recall for this figure because my version had the same problem but only with the left leg. Literally had to super glue it back on and now it moves well.

[@themollymachine]

I just got mine today ... and sadly everything falls apart when you try to pose him

[@Mufee0710]

I was really hyped but all the reviews on his legs are kinda depressing, im still getting him nonetheless cuz the only other luffy I have is the anime heroes, I will definitely try the paper mod, tho could u elaborate on how to do it? Do u just fold a small piece of paper in a cylindrical shape and put it on?

[@toyshelv]

It can be a tiny flat piece of paper too. The paper mod, just insanely simple. I used some paper for his waist joint too recently.

[@Mufee0710]

@@toyshelv btw to remove the back part of the pants, do u just pull it off after heating it

I hope the gear 5 sh figarts is good

[@Rua2912]

how to do the paper trick?

im so fucking tired theres nothing online about the paper trick

I want to buy this but after seeing all the problems idk😬 I might since the fixes and that upgrade kit might make it better

[@toyshelv]

for the price and since you Anime Heroes, it's probably worth a shot in a couple months. Especially if it goes on sale by Christmas

[@mikewzowske]

@@toyshelvI finally got after almost a year and fortunately the hips on mine aren’t loose so hopefully the legs never fall off

[@mikewzowske]

The shoulders on mine are way to tight though

[@tannersula1626]

I got Luffy a week ago and the legs weren’t loose and all I had to do was loosen the tight shoulder joints and tighten the neck joint. So I guess I got lucky with it

[@That1figureguy]

It wasn’t just the hips on yours.The moment I took him out of the box i tried moving his legs but his left one just wouldn’t stop falling off

dude the same thing happened with my shf cgi goku i just put i justput a peice of play doh in the little hole for the leg socket and let it dry, when it dries, crumple it into two peices, put in the leg hole and the join will be tighter than bark on a tree.😂

[@russellsworld3229]

I Was Here

[@GiovanniGomez-b6w]

i bought it but dont have a fire effect but i do have the jiren effect so i think that might work

[@EvilRobotSteve]

Wow the hips on yours are so bad! I don't know what happened there. Mine are nothing like that. They squeak a little when I move them, but they don't flop when I shake the figure and they certainly don't fall off! I'm glad you showed the knee mod, as I was curious. I don't think I'll do it as I don't like how it leaves a hole in the back of the shorts. Overall the articulation is disappointing on this one compared to other SHFs, and for a flexible guy like Luffy, it's a shame. Still looks awesome on my desk though, and that's what I wanted him for. I really like that coat though, shame there's no way to get it without buying a whole other figure.

[@portalmast1177]

The target version has the legs fixed

[@Zorohoneybear]

for the gear 5 figure that’s coming we need to buy both the gear 5 and the normal one to switch limbs? That’s kinda dumb.

Couldn’t they just include extra limbs?
