I talk about it in detail on YouTube
When you think of CCP's Kinnikuman figures, you probably have the image of the CMC series, with its matte finish and realistic shadowed texture, but the "New Retro SOFUBI Series" is characterized by its glossy, nostalgic coloring.
It's somewhat reminiscent of the colored trading figure series that were released in the 90s. The combination of this nostalgic paint job and the high quality modeling is very interesting.
New Retro SOFUBI 11. Kinnikuman "Suguru" American Expedition Ver. Original Blue Pants (New Retro Blue Pants)
Size: 21cm, Material: PVC, Pre-painted finished product
Around the time of the American expedition, Kinnikuman went from being a comedy- centered development to a steel body after his encounter with Kamehameha, and become a top-notch superhero after being taught 48 murderous techniques. The story is becoming more serious, and the touch of the pictures is also changing. This is the most popular American version of the series, as it depicts Kinnikuman's transformation into a powerful superhero.
First of all, this glossy feeling! There is a gradual charm. It's the American
Expedition Ver. that's also been released in the CMC series, but the paint job has been kept simple to give it a glossy finish. This is great because it makes the beauty of the muscles stand out even more! Also, it's nice to be able to enjoy the sculpting of CCP figures at a reasonable price.
New Retro SOFUBI 12. "Shishkaba Boo" Special color (New Retro Special color)
Size: 21cm, Material: PVC, Pre-painted finished product
Shishkaba Boo is a barbecue tribe superhero from the planet Kinniku. Shishkaba Boo is characterized by his ugliness! He's ugly, but he's a peculiar superhuman. And he's one of the few superheroes who has ever defeated Kinnikuman!
Shishkaba Boo was the first Kinnikuman that Mr. Yudetamago-Shimada drew, he said. It seems that this Shishkaba Boo, who he drew before the current Kinnikuman when he was in elementary school, was originally Kinnikuman, and he's like the original Kinnikuman! In that sense, he's a pretty hot character. By the way, Shishkaba Boo is also popular among Kin-erasers!
After all, he is a hot character among the fans.
I want to display him together with Kinnikuman. I think this color will make him stand out from Kinnikuman, as he has shown more strength than Kinnikuman in his work.
CMC NO.EX "Zebra" Hellfire of Inner Strength Ver.
As its name suggests, the Zebra has a distinctive zebra pattern, which changes into two patterns depending on its fighting style: the "white/black" form of the Clean Fighter and the "gray/black" form of the Brutal Fighter.
Both fighters have appeared in the series, and both are cool. Personally, I prefer the Brutal Ver., but this time it's the "Hellfire of Inner Strength Ver.", so
there's a different kind of Zebra charm.
The appearance of standing in this fighting pose is cool, isn't it?
The Zebra's fighting pose is perfectly sculpted, and the Hellfire of Inner Strength paint job looks amazing! The dark red paint on his fists really brings out the strength of the Zebra. Also, the eyes and mask are painted in silver, which is a very cool choice for Zebra.
