They slide in to the barrel of her cannon with no real effort required and despite adding weight her cannon arm is still capable of holding itself outstretched with either effect attached. Both effects are nicely rendered in a clear plastic with pink accents. She also comes with 2 beam effects, one with a single projectile and one with a double projectile. She comes with 4 extra interchangeable hands (5 total) 1 closed fist, 1 gripping fist (though no accessories to hold with it…), 1 Splayed hand for action poses, one calm hand and one depicting her trademark “Thumbs up” or “Thumbs down” expression from Metroid: Other M. If you paid an aftermarket price for her though I wouldn't blame you for feeling a bit underwhelmed in the accessory dept. She has a ball joint in her abdomen, below the chest armor, this can allow for a nice upper body twist in place of a typical waist joint that would have rendered the figure looking a bit broken in my opinion.Īccessory count is a bit light but given the original retail price for Samus I think it’s pretty fair. All of the movement is seamless and does little to nothing to break up the sculpt of the figure. Both arms have deep single joint elbows and her hand has the typical peg and swivel style of Figma hand joint.

Despite her large and bulky chest and shoulder armor she has great upper body posability with a double ball joint set up in the shoulders to allow for a white range of movement, and then a not quite full outward swing on the arm as well, contained within the shoulder armor. The knee joints are possibly the weakest link on my copy but I had very little issue getting the figure in to any number of poses. Despite the added weight all the joints and strong and they can all hold their own when posing. A lot of her armor appears to be solid chunks of plastic and there is a great in hand feel when messing with this toy. One of the first things you might notice when you take Samus out of her box is that she is incredibly heavy for a Figma release.
