1/6th DEVGRU by Very Hot

Not the latest Very Hot product, DEVGRU was actually released before the Very Hot U.S.A.F.Pararescue Jumper and NAVY SEAL CQB. I initially had the intention to use "SNAKE" (PMC Operator 07 ver.) by Hot Toys as the body due to its rugged appearance, but I decided to "WAFFEN S.S. Julius Hanke"by DiD. Though the DiD has a really solid and heavy frame with intricate shoulder joints, it still shy when compared to the TRUE-TYPE by Hot Toys.

"DEVGRU"
or "NAVSPECWARDEVGRU" (Navy Special Warfare Development Group) was originally known as the "SEAL Team SIX". The original SEAL Team SIX is the U.S. NAVY core counter-terrorist unit whose operatives were drawn from the ranks of NAVY SEAL. They underwent an accelerated training programme and became operational within six months. The mission of DEVGRU is to provide intelligence, counter-terrorism, management for the development and testing of Naval Special Warfare technologies. DEVGRU are known to train alongside the
DELTA FORCE and deploys alongside when necessary.

Box Art
Very Hot likes to keep their product packaging compact and easy to stash, simply because there is no need to pack the accessories into blisters and it does not come with a body.


Basic Outfit
With that Photographer's Vest lookalike, I was tempted to give it a Shonon Mk. I DSLR or Canon EOS 5D DSLR, but its tough fingers could not wield them with pride.







Gears unique to DEVGRU
M4A1 in desert camouflage, DV and VAIO notebook with bag. Other unqiue gears include Binoculars (not shown).

Shamefully DiD body has got tough fingers and a less flexible body to give good poses.

REVOLTECH No.028 EVA-01 TYPE F

REVOLTECH No.28
EVA-01 TYPE F
AFC EXPERIMENT
24th January 2008
Equipment: Canon Digital IXUS40
Photography & Editing by William Tan
Revoltech No.028 EVA-01 TYPE F

The EVA-01 TYPE F is not really my cup of tea. It is just not a sleek as EVA-01 and here. But as a REVOLTECH collector, I strive to complete my collection, particularly my EVANGELION series. REVOLTECH No.028 EVA-01 TYPE F AFC Experiment is not as poseable as its predecessor, due to the bulkyness of the frame. KAIYODO manufactured this figure using a completely unique material which has subtle tones of fluorescent colours and a smooth-matt finish. Oddly, the head is glossy! Sadly, this material/finish has not been re-used since this figure. The finish makes this figure very photo-taking friendly, as there are no nasty overexposed patches from the glossy-finish. This figure is a REVOLTECH G2 figure and stands 1cm taller than the older REVOLTECHs.
I apologize for the error in the banner, it should be "AFC" and not "ARC".
