Phicen Seamless Steel Skeleton Figure Review

Description

Well guys, as a freak who has dreamed of action figures that are more realistic with no visible joints since I was a kid, I have bought just about every Phicen seamless body type they have released since the first. I've owned 10 of them and there have been great new improvements with each update. I've also broken 3 of them, all at the hip, which made me really not ever want to touch them after getting one into a good pose. That problem is why I previously couldnt really recommend buying one unless you just have to have a seamless female body and have money to blow.

This new Phicen steel body is finally one I DO recommend buying, even over the Hot Stuff seamless body, which it costs about the same as.
With steel joints I don't worry about breaking anything, although the skin is so soft it feels like it could warp or tear easily. In fact there are lines in the hips from the bikini bottom being on  bit tight in the box, and they probably wont ever go away. Aside from that one thing that is a plus as much as a minus (it really feels creepily relistic), I can't complain about this body at all. Phicen finally completely pulled it off.
In the photo I have her in a different Phicen bikini then the overly slutty one she came with. She came with no shoes and the feet are no longer detachable, being seamless too now. That's great, but I have nothing small enough to fit since standard Hot Toys and other random shoes and heels I tried were too big.

Now on to what rocks balls about this figure. The joints move easily! No loud clicks, just a smooth transition from point A to point B, so if you get any resistance, you KNOW you are trying to move something the wrong way. This is probably the best change Phicen has ever made, but there is more!
The skin is actually painted. Yep, nipples, pinky zone, and shading in places its needed such as knees and belly make this figure even more worth the higher price point.
AND this figure has better articulation than any Phicen ever has, as the cross legged  with one shoulder higher pose shows. (I'll probably add more pics to this later too.)

I'm not a fan of the head, even though it does look a little like Kate Beckensale, but it is better than most Phicen heads have been, and it can be replaced easily.

They stayed with the interchangeable hands, and I like that too.

If anyone is interested in these at all, this new version is definitely worth buying.

UPDATED with more pics, Biel head, HT Black Widow hands, and black bikini that still kind of sucks.
