JINMEN



Marmit was full of mistery. Even now with the internet i cant dig too much about them or find too many photo evidence of theyr figures but they did some trully amazing ones, and one of them is this one: from the Devilman Dynamic Action Figures is Jinmen.


Jinmen came in a big blister just like Winged Devilman and is a trully amazing figure!! He is articulated on his neck, shoulders, legs and tail, wich makes him the most articulated figure of the series (pretty old fashion articulations tough) and can stand on his own by helping himself with his hands.


He is not the tallest character but he is TRULLY HEAVY and pretty spectacular looking. Amarmit actually sculpted every single one of the faces on Jinmen´s shell and painted every single one with different skin tones and each detail prefectly defined. And i am not talking about sculting many faces, i talk about how you can look at the manga and identify every single face from this figure.


Is a totally perfect 3D representation of Go Nagai´s art to a totally different level. True, Akira and Miki and the rest are very accurate, but sculpting and painting every face on this character shows how good was Marmit on his figure crafting, wich is amazing considering this is a toy from the 80s-90s.


The monster himself is very green with different dark washes and yellow veins on his arms and the face sculp is actually pretty cute and cartoony, just like Go Nagai did it; with the big purple smile and the snake tongue cursling arund and the yellow details on his forehead.


I love the Fewture Models Jinmen, but i love soo much this one as well since i like the "alive" faces much more, i find them more frightning and while this figure have the typical quality from the 90s (not too strong plastic, limited articulations) i find him the most outstanding from the entire series.

Thats it until i see Satan, Psycho Genie or Zennon, tough given i barelly see a couple of Marmit figures over the last 20 years, i doubt i can get the rest of the cast and compete my collection. Marmit figures are not as amazing looking as Fewture, but given how rare they are that makes them probablly more valuable tough i doubt i can know more about the subject without going directly to Japan.
