Sunohc - Matrix Reloaded - Neo

Announced : 2010

Released : 2011 August

Packaging 

For a custom figure with collaboration of famous artists Kato and Sean, Sunohc's produced one of the ugliest box ever, to matching the price tag. The corrugated box material used is quite bad, the printed figure image on the surface is bad and the sponge interior is mediocre. I was quite disappointed with the packaging. Kumik has one of the worse packaging method compare to other manufacturers and this one just slightly better.

Sculpting

Head sculpt is not too appealing but back then in year 2011 this was the best Keanu Reeves head sculpt you could get; the detailing is there but accuracy is closer to Nicolas Cage lol. Also comes with sculpted and painted very infamous bullet stopping palm made by Sean.

Paint

Paint job is one of the best feature for this figure, thanks to Sean which still in par with today's releases.

Articulation

Body uses Hot Toys narrow shoulder so no fuss about it just when making more dynamic pose there will be slight issue with Neo's coat popping open as Kato made it really tight and close fitting.

Accessories

The most important accessory, sunglasses; very well sculpted that fit nicely onto Neo's face; other accessories just scavenging from other manufacturers which I don't really use.

Outfit

Another perfect feature from this figure: the dynamic coat of Neo, handmade by Kato the genius artist. I would say 99% accuracy to the movie Matrix Reloaded and Revolution. Before this I never own nay Kato's work and never understand Kato's work cost; now I know, because it's a piece of art by its own.

Fun Factor

I am a Matrix fanatics probably watched the trilogy more than 50 times and still counting. Obviously I have so much fun posing Neo and I wouldn't get tired doing that anytime soon.

Value

The only credit I'll give to this figure is Kato's tailoring and Sean's paint job; for the price this figure should have been much much better, especially the head sculpt accuracy and box design, just simply disappointing.
