I just noticed something. How articulate are Ginrai's legs? In all these images, his legs are barely repositioned from his standard pose. Can his knees even bend at all? Posted by Sabrblade on March 27th, 2012 @ 8:51am CDT

These are all very nice, but having never followed the Japanese headmasters, I'm not drawn to them like other figures. Posted by Requiem Prime on March 27th, 2012 @ 9:18am CDT

Looking at the shots of the back of the figure, his knees appear to have a double joint... why they didn't detail this is anyone's guess, but it certainly does appear to be movable.

Sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere, but are these officially licensed? Posted by Fistful of Energon on March 27th, 2012 @ 9:48am CDT

5 faces and they cant give you one without that corny hairpiece sticking over his forehead ??? Cartoon accurate or not, it's just plain annoying like the pointy hair on Alphalpha or those 2 puff balls on Archie's head.



I must admit the Minerva doll is growing on me. It might be the first and only doll I ever buy. I wont even try to sugarcoat it. It is what it is. Posted by Rated X on March 27th, 2012 @ 11:10am CDT

If it doesn't have any soft material and/or removable clothing, it ain't a doll. The word "figure" is even in the product's name for crying out loud.



In fact, I dare you to try cuddling with these without hurting youself (and without being careful, mind you). Give it a rest already with the doll nonsense.

I got nothing but respect for you my friend. But in my "culture" it is considered a doll. Some collectors might be in denial and try to create a new category for the pieces that sounds more "acceptable to guys". But at the end of the day it's still a doll. Just like the 1972 GI Joe nurse doll that they tried to pass off as an "action figure" to sell to boys. (and failed miserably) And I might just buy Minerva, but I wont sugarcoat the truth.

You know what, if this stupid discussion about what is a doll and what's an action figure starts up again I will blindly issue warnings to anyone involved, no matter which side they're on or how they phrase their post. Posted by Dead Metal on March 27th, 2012 @ 3:07pm CDT

Knowing how the Japanese market ensures the impetus to purchase the variant, I wonder how much the Minerva "Nightbeat" version will cost?



And hopefully Ginrai won't be more expensive than Minerva. Posted by fenrir72 on March 28th, 2012 @ 7:04am CDT

Though, it being a Headmaster would make it all the more perfect, as you say it looks like Picard, who was played by Patrick Stewart, who also played Charles Xavier, who was also the "Headmaster" of the Xavier Institute (A.K.A. the X-Mansion) in the X-Men fiction. It all comes full circle.
