TAMASHII NATIONS - Berserk - Guts (Berserker Armor) S.H.Figuarts Action Figure

As a long-time Berserk fan, I never imagined we’d get a high-quality figure of Isidro — and S.H. Figuarts absolutely delivered. This figure exceeded all expectations. The sculpt is incredible. Isidro’s cocky grin, wild hair, and dynamic posture are all spot-on, perfectly capturing his fiery spirit and relentless energy. The articulation is top-tier — whether you’re posing him mid-leap, sword drawn, or cooking by a campfire with his little accessories, he holds up beautifully. The joints are tight without being restrictive, and you can pull off some seriously expressive poses that make him feel like he jumped straight off the page. I also have to give props for the attention to detail. From the folds in his tunic to the tiny pouch at his belt, everything feels authentic and lovingly crafted. The alternate faceplates and hands give you tons of display options, and it’s clear that the designers truly understand the character. For fans collecting the Berserk line or just lovers of underdog characters, this is an essential pickup. Isidro finally gets the respect he deserves in figure form. Highly recommend — five stars all the way!

The figure is super detailed and well made, love the look. However, it is EXTREMELY fragile, would not recommend as an action figure or being used for stop motion. For me, I just want to have it posed and stay on my desk, so it’s perfect for me. Hands are a little hassle but overall not a big deal.

Purchased this as a gift for my son and he absolutely 100% loves it! Exactly how described! Son says articulation is great and the figure is top quality. Around your standard size maybe 6 inches or so. Was definitely pricey, but literally the best gift to give any fan of guts! Worth every penny!

I'm in the minority to say I really like this figure, and he's probably one of my favorites in my collection. Are there QC issues with the figure, absolutely. I had to break down the figure completely to oil and tighten areas, but upon doing so I got an understanding of the engineering and what the team were going for. The splay of accessories is perfect for a Guts figure. Articulation is where this figure thrives. Durability on the other hand, this figure is fragile, and it shouldn't be the case for the price.

Good

I would give this a 3.5 out of 5 if I could, because it does look marvelous when he's mounted on his steed. Now the issues: getting his helmeted head to stay together on his body is a bit of a challenge, the chin plate likes to fall off a lot. Another defect I found is the toe joint on his left foot. It looks as though it was clipped when it was assembled, so now Griffith's toes can angle down at 90 degrees lol. The hand guard on his sword is a bit difficult to attach, as are his hands which makes me nervous when switching them out. His front locks are inserted on the side of his head and the hair piece is supposed to go right against the inserts to look like they're coming from under his bangs. However, there is a gap between the lock and bangs on his right side, so it looks a little like he has payot lol. Lastly, his spurs got super bent in the box. The Good: As previously stated, this figure looks AMAZING. Seriously, there are no bad poses with this figure. The horse looks fantastic and Griffith is fully regal when he is atop. Overall, despite some issues and the price, this is a solid figure. Maybe hold off if you already have the Gold Age Griffith figma, as I think the quality on that one is a bit better.

I don't regret nabbing guts at $125 as someone who loves the design. The intricate black metal weathered paint and detailed sculpting is very aesthetically pleasing like its straight out of a panel from berserk. Looks amazing in photos and on the shelf. The cape is wired so you can pose it. The articulation is insane you can put guts into any pose honestly, but there are some problems that may not justify the high price mainly the dragon slayer. Its way too big and heavy, the joints of the hands are too small, and the handle is weird. It doesn't fall out of his hands but with the weight of the sword it flops around when gripped with one hand. You have to pose it laying on something (ground, shoulder) when one handed and its really annoying i don't know why they missed such a big flaw. And the sculpt for the handle of the sword gets thicker towards the blade so the hand is stretched and can't grip the thinner parts of the handle over time unless you heat it up ig. Admittedly the sword is a beautiful paint and sculpt but engineering wise its frustrating to handle. And not that many accessories. Sets of hands, a nice gritting teeth and relaxed face, two extra helmets controlled and the skull helmet, a cannon arm hand, and kneeling legs. A muzzle flash effect for the cannon arm and a helmetless face like that one panel where guts' hair is down and hes smiling would've been great but oh well.

I own both Figma berserk guts figures. The black swordsman and the Beserker armor. They’re also terrible figures. I was hoping this would be better with ShF’s track record and I will say they improved on some aspects but others it literally is worse in. For starters the wrist peg is so small that the hand comes off so easily and boy it doesn’t help with a big sword that is as half the weight of the figure. The plastic is way to brittle and feels like you’d break it comparing it to the Figma one where they chose to use softer plastic that’s like rubber so the issue of breaking won’t happen. The joints in the legs are so loose that it’s like playing a balance game for just simple poses. I’ve done many complex poses, this figure feels like a nightmare just to get basic poses with dragon slayer in hand. The figure is over engineered and it’s for the worst since it doesn’t help the figure at all. They need some soft plastic to make the plastic not so brittle and making it feel fragile. The other part is the cape is honestly pretty bad. The Figma is literally a dryer sheet that’s black put onto the back of Guts but they made it so stiff it’s like sand paper. This cape is basically a dryer sheet if it was wet then dried, but wait there’s a wire inside. Which is cool but the wire doesn’t go fully around the cape. One side is far longer than the other. The only few positives I can say is the detail is nice, they got dragon slayer’s size right compared to figma’s berserker armor guts and….. no that’s about it. Overall it looks nice but with this detail I can get McFarlane figures for the same amount in detail. And it isn’t $100. I only will say get this figure if you love berserk and I mean really love Beserk. Or wait til it’s $30 minimum. This figure isn’t worth $40, isn’t worth $50. $35 is the max because detail. Other than that this figure is a solid 2/10 figure.

The armour on Griffith looks great, and overall he has a good sculpt. There are a few negative swjich bring it down to a 3 for me. First, posing this guy is a real pain - his accessories fall off very easily and he won't stand on his own unless you use his capdnas leverage or use a stand. Second, the horse could be detailed much better. Some shading would go a long way. If you're a fan of the series there aren't any better choices at this price point. Hopefully an S.H. Femto is released soon!

But the sword is heavy for the figure arm by itself

Excelente figura, llego en perfecto estado

Die rechte Hand kann das Schwert nicht richtig Halten und es fehlt stativ, damit man die Figur aufstellen kann.

Good figure
