L meets bastBlack

L (from Death Note)
meets
bast Black (the Gayer-Anderson Cat that inspired my pseudonym)


Real Action Heroes' L is nicer than I expected. The paint job on the face is top notch, and the clothing sown very well. The figure poses and holds the pose well. It can even stand on it's own if you pose it right. The likeness to the Death Note anime L is very well done. The eyes even have grey ring around the outer edge. There are 3 additional hands, a stand with 2 braces, and a nice white box case with a the big L logo. The hands and feet can be taken off. The jeans look like a real jeans. Very cute. The front has a velco fly and slide-lock button. The jeans and shirt are both made with stretchy fabrics (this is wise!)

The problems are in the clothes when you pose the figure, the shirt will twist in ugly ways if you don't fix the area around the armpit. Also, you can't put L in is his infamous crotched pose with the jeans closed, -- you must open the slide button and fly for the extra bending room first.

Overall, it's pretty fun when you can get it at a reasonable price. ^^

WARNING!!!!!!! --------------------------------------
Be *very* careful when posing the upper leg side to side. This is easily the weakest joint in the figure. I would know, since I broke it and L's right leg fell off. The horror! oO! I was able to glue the leg to the hip, but repairing the side-to-side joint is impossible. Sadly, the leg can only bend front and back now. I can't do the pose in the picture above anymore. T T
