Revoltech #096 ZOIDS Geno Breaker

The Geno Breaker is a Tyrannosaurus-type Zoid, one of over 200 species of fictional biomechanical lifeforms depicted by TOMY's Zoids model, toy, and media franchise. Based on the Geno Saurer, the Geno Breaker was first released in 2002, and the Zoid plays a significant role in both the Battle Story and the Zoids: Guardian Force anime. (Zoids wiki)

It is also equipped with a large pair of multi-purpose claws mounted on extendable arms known as X-Breakers.

Those claws are very menacing. It can also be used as a shield.

The Revoltech joints provide flexibility in terms of articulation.

The claws make Geno Breaker looks like a dino-crustacean hybrid.

Who will come out as the victor?

I bought this figure to accompany my Blade Liger and this figure is as impressive. I cannot find any flaw in terms of paint job. The sculpt and articulation were good. The only issue I have with this figure is the loose joints. Revoltech joints are suppose to be rigid and strong but it has some difficulty handling the weight of the figure. It is not that prominent on the Blade Liger but it is a very pronounced issue since it is very difficult to put this figure on a standing position for an extended amount of time. Grab this if you are a fan of the Zoids series or else you might just want to skip it altogether.
