What hurts the figure is when you begin to compare her to modern figures by Kaiyodo, Revoltechs in particular. The bar connects to other pieces available with presumably other figures in the line which is a nice little incentive if you plan to get the others from the line. The level of detail on the stand is fantastic with oddities like a silent alarm sculpted in on the underside of the counter- you'd never see it on display but its there all the same. Her posability is pretty decent for a relic such as herself, even displaying a welcome ankle swivel allowing her to adopt splayed leg poses as she shoots something or other. She actually comes with more deringers than she can ever possibly hold in case you lose 5 of them. Let it not be said that she doesn't look fantastic on display as she does and let it not be said that she doesn't have play value as each an every pistol can be either stored in its holster or placed in her hands. The plastic count is off the scale as she comes with a multi- piece display stand in the form of a shot-up bar counter, a suitcase that opens and can contain things (among which are a small sub machine gun, a typewriter, and some additonal treats that are more for display than play value), some Bernardelli documents, a soft plastic cape and a thing to hold her numerous deringer pistols inside of said cape, parts to attach the cape to her back, hands to hold her pistols, a fist and a waving hand and a small black cat like the one commonly spotted in the show. Unpackaging her turned out to be bittersweet but not because shes a bad figure by any margin. I saw her floating around on a well known website which I can't name (it rhymes with 'we play') for around $30 which I didn't think was too bad and I figured 'ehh, why not' mostly to stand her next to my Revoltech Vash and Wolfwood. Trigun: Planet Gunsmoke (Kaiyodo)It's certainly an oddity to have a decade old figure that's not a Transformer in my collection but seeing as how Trigun is my favourite anime, its an oddity thats welcome.
