Another exciting POP release has made it's way to the preorder stage (check out the preorder announcement here). POP Neo-DX - Dracule Mihawk Ver. 2 has been officially available for preorder on hobby shops and official promo images are now up at MegaHobby Station. Of course, I made these images available here on my site for your convenience as we discuss the how amazing this particular POP that we are getting.
The first thing you'll notice and probably excited about is that you can display him with or without the hat. I can't tell from these images if the hat is removable or it comes with an alternate head without a hat since it is the same facial expression. Either way, it's cool to have an option to display him hatless unlike the previous DX version.
Both his arms can be replaced to make an alternate pose with him wielding either his Yoru (his huge black sword) or Kogatana (his pendant crucifix knife). Two different left hand for each sword. It seems there are two Kogotanas, one as a necklace and one as a knife since the chain is loose on the latter. The head is probably on a ball joint as we can see his head facing in different directions based on these photos.
I gotta say that Mihawk is looking kick-ass here, with all the details, colors, proportion and pose. Adding to that is the cool cape that seems to be slightly being blown by the wind. It's like he's looking down to all his opponents from the top some pedestal. I was crying before that I missed the first DX Mihawk, that one is totally expensive and I find it impractical to own nowadays. And this is a god-given opportunity for us. To own a newest and most updated POP Neo-DX - Dracule Mihawk from MegaHouse. Can't miss this one.
As I have mentioned, preorders are now up at most hobby shops. Amiami, HLJ and Hobby Search are already sold out though. But no worries, you can also check out Animarket and Figmation ( JP | Int. )and other POP retailers.
