CASCA

Years ago i saw the Guts Figma just when it was released and i pass on him because i got Archer. A couple of weeks later, Guts was 100$. Thats one of the things i regret the most in the last years tough later on Good Smile re-release him and i was able to get him.

Soo i decided to give Casca a chance while i got the Guts and while i wait for the God Hand Figma. Because i pre-ordered Femto and we all know, of course, that every Femto needs a Casca.

I am not sure if humanity dosnt likes Casca or this figure in particular, but i found her pretty cheap and theres plenty of her around. Poor Casca, i guess i can see why… she can be loved for those who read Berserk but the rest of the people wont like her at all because her color scheme is a little monotone and she have a kind of asexual look. Unlike all other Figma toys, she dosnt have huge eyes, colorfull hair, giant boobs and a student uniform.

She is covered on a realistic designed armour, with no exposed ass parts of legs or bosoom, and she have a manly hair style too. She is not glamorous deffinetly but she is a realistic looking female warrior and that makes her stand out for me.

She is bigger than the Nurses and as tall as Archer and Snake (wich gives me the feeling they did Guts kinda big) and while she gives the impression of being a small toy, she have the standar size of any action figure and fit with most lines now days.

She cant stand on her own but she dosnt have too since Figma produce the best bases ever.

The articulations works really good, they are resistant and soft to give her totall freedom of movement. One thing i loved about this figure is how her armour is not a single piece, but it consts on 2-3 parts joined together soo she can move her torso as well since all pieces on her armour move independently. How amazing is that for a toy of this size??? Not even the Hot Toys do this!!

The materials they use for her are pretty good as well. While her face have a nice and soft texture and her armour have a pretty good metalic paint on it, all her clothig is made with ruber/soft plastic. Her skirt dosnt stop her legs movement and the texture of her cape is really good looking with this materials.

She dosnt have too many accesoryes. She comes with an army of little hands for a multitud of usefull poses. Aside of that she only have her sword as weapon. This sword have a pretty delicate and elegant design and fir perfectly on the scabbard that hangs from her belt. This little details are wath makes Figma soo good.

Her other accesory is her helmeth with a feather. Again a pretty good looking item but the best part of hos can be used in  apretty simple and clean ay. The helmeth can be divided in two soo you can fit her head perfectly inside before joinging the two parts again. A really simple system that works perfect for this size.

She also have an extra angry face for battle and thats all. From the small teeth and the tongue to the lipstick of the “calm” face and the intrincate details on her eyes, everything is perfectly painted in here.

If i have to complaign about something that would be her hair. Is a little too plain and boring looking. I am sure they could have done a better job by sculpting longer strands of hair to give it a more stylish look but aside of that thisis a very good product of a female that dosnt have too many toys to begin with.
