Revoltech #114 Alucard


Alucard is vampire under the service of the Hellsing Organization which works against vampires and other such supernatural forces. Alucard is no mere vampire; it has been implied that he is the most powerful vampire, as well as the most powerful entity in the entire series. He is devoted to his master Integra and was close friends with the Hellsing butler, Walter C. Dornez. He also has also feelings of admiration towards his fledgling, Seras Victoria.

This is a good example how little gimmicks like these can improve the presentation of the figure.

I love the grin on this extra head. Really bring out the character of Alucard.

The overcoat was designed to be flexible to enable poses like this.

The monster who looks like a man versus the man who looks like a monster. Who will win?
All in all this is a very good representation of Alucard from the Hellsing anime/manga. Articulation is good and there are no issues with the paint application. My only complaint is that the overcoat is not in red as it was suppose to be in the anime. That aside, this is a great figure for anyone who is a fan of the series. Go grab this bloodsucker before he put a bullet through your forehead.
