Ok, enough with the back story, so let start with the review. I bought the figurine at Robot Master which located at fourth floor Queensbay, it cost me RM90, well considering it is a old figurine, i still think it is quite expensive, anyhow i have been looking for it for a long time, so it worth it.
Revoltech has make a named out of their figurines joints, it is famous of their famous posing ability, which the Reovltech joint did a great work here, their joint is design to lock in place when you pose the figurine, the design might be good at posing, on the other way round, it limit the posing posibility of the figurine quite a lot too comparing to Figma one.
The packet come with a stand, one alternate face, two weapons, one is the orginal Excalibur, another one is the Dark Excalibur. and lastly the figurine of Saber Alter.
Let's start with Saber Alter figurine, it has about 12 movable joints, located at neck, shoulder, arm, waits, bottom, knee cap and ankle. The important part is, this time they make the joint in the neck smaller because of this, the neck look better than the Saber they released few month ago before Saber Alter, the first time i bought Saber i didn't even the neck but after going home and unboxing it, then i realise that why it is look so weird, the neck is juz too thick. Come to the details of the figurine, the hair just look almost like Saber so not much of a differ here, the color has been tone down to a lighter one, to suit the feel of its anime counter part. ( Passer By A : "aren't Saber Alter does have a lighter hair color?" =.=).
As for the face, it come with exchangeable face, one is the usual look, another one is come with a eye patch that cover both of Saber Alter eye, the mask is wear when Saber Alter fight, both of the face provide much detail and very well done, especially the one with mask, the red strips over the mask is well painted, and follow as closely as possible to the anime one.
The body part is well sculpture, the paint they use contain some sparkle in it, this way it make the black stand out a lot since whole body until to the lower part is black. The part i liked the most where they used double joint at the side of the gown, it make the gown more flexible when posing the figurine.

Overally, i really like it not much to be crictize on it but if you really want to crictize it then it will be the foot, they really make it too big although it look nice, it just too big, i think it can not be help then since the figure look so big itself, it need a big foot to balance it, i guess it cant be help then.
Final Verdict:
A must have for the fans, it does not cost much for a figurine build as good as this. If you want to get this one you might as well pick up Saber too.
