Revol Mini #06 War Machine



This is the sixth release of revol mini. I was actually waiting for the third release which is iron man, but something got in the way, so I decided to get this guy to fulfill my hunger for iron man.


Appearance




War machine color scheme are mostly black-silver combination. This color scheme never failed me and with the addition of all its details, it simply 10/10 score for me. 


Articulation
 


His joints and articulation are pretty much the same with snake. His bulky armor does some times blocking the way of his movement, especially on feet area, so his movements will not be as fluent as snake. But since they are made of soft material here and there, basically you could still make him as pose able as snake with a little care.
The gun at both of his arms are molded together so it does not have any articulation or detachable. Could be better if they are made as separated part, but still perfectly fine with me.
Back machine gun
The back machine gun could be detached with a bit of careful. The bullet belt is made of soft material so it could safely bend.  The machine gun attached with revol joint to the holder, so it could swivel around quite much. The holder itself only attached using a simple peg to the body, so it could only hinged from right to left.

The default position for the machine gun is at his right, and if you want to move it to the left, you need to detach the bullet belt first.

 Accessories
 
 

Not much in this department, only two pairs of hands and thee pieces of firing effect. As usual, you'll get the round and clear revoltech stand. Good thing about this figure is the fact that his alternative hands are compatible with snake. Snake's arms are also fits nicely in war machine body and could move freely without any hinder. Unfortunately, their head are not compatible. War machine use ball joint while snake use round peg for its attachment point.


 


Size comparison and pose
He's about five millimeters taller than snake










Luckily I’m not iron man, because this is the hardest pose ever!

Final Thought
My second revol mini figure and I’m still satisfied with it. If you like mini revol snake you will definitely like this one too.
