After his defeat and losing his kabuto in the hand of Kamina, Viral make a hasty retreat but vow to exact his vengence on those hairless monkeys. The headless Enki was recondition to Enkidu.
Based on Mesopotamian folklore, Enkidu is a wildman who was raised by animals. The Disney equivalent will be Mowgli from Jungle Book. Later on, Enkidu met Gilgamesh (another popular fiction character)and befriended him.
Enkidu and the accessories. It is really disappointing to see so little gadgets being offered here.
Front and rear view of Enkidu.
Close up on the front and rear view.
The sickle-mohawk weapon that comes with the figure. I still prefer Enki's katanas over this. :P
I did not recall Enkidu having any boosters. Is this another marketing strategy?
Enkidu with the drawn sickle. Kaiyodo should at least give us a part to plug those holes left by the sickle. It looks as if Enkidu was shot on the head twice!
Side by side comparison with Enki. I say this figure is around 80% similiar to Enki.
I am no headless chicken! Time for some action pose!!!
Viral: Give me back my kabuto you thieving monkeys!!!
Kamina: Come and get it!!!
Viral: You ask for it!!!
Overall, I am a bit disappointed by this release. I can live with the paintjob but the amount of gadget that comes with this figure is abit lacking compare to the other TTGL release. In my opinion, the least that Kaiyodo can do is give us a set of extra arms so that we have the freedom of displaying this figure as Enkidu OR Enkidudu. I bet alot of people will not mind buying two set of this to display as either of the two mecha if Kaiyodo decide to do so. If you have not grab Enki before this, what is stopping you from getting Enkidu? Go for it. :D
Until then, lets go monkeys with all those TTGL Kaiyodo figures!
Trivia: The voice actor for Viral, Nobuyuki Hiyama is also the voice actor for Shishioh Guy from The King of Braves; Gaogaigar (another great anime mecha that I enjoy). :D

Wow! Another great haul from you, bro. I still prefer Enki more because it hot a head, without head Enkidu looks more like a Gammen (infact it is already a Gammen???)
TTGL is really a great hot blood super robot anime, I plan to watch it again...hehe!
Hehehe yeah! Have to agree that TTGL is a great robot anime! I am not waiting patiently for the release of Gurren and Chou Gurren Lagann. Wonder if I can get my hands on an exclusive Enkidudu...
Remember to post it when you got Enkidudu, ok? :)
I will get it if I can get my hands on one but I will most probably get another few Revoltech from the other Kaiyodo line. Hint hint...
Looking forward, looking forward. :)
