Alteisen

I just got my Chogokin Alteisen today and I suddenly realized there are two different models for the Chogokin Alteisen, one from Bandai and the other from Banpresto. Does anyone know the difference or which one is better?

The Banpresto one's probably better, but the one from Bandai probably wont bend your wallet/purse over and rape it quite as hard.

Of course that's just my thoughts. I personally don't have one to say for sure.

Banpresto version have a lot of gimmicks compared to Bandai version. Bullets that you can remove from the revolver stake, buttons that opens the cover of the claymore box, stake that can push in and out and thrusters that close and spread by pushing the upper part of the thruster.

Bandai version however comes with effect parts like the flame parts for the stake and horns which I think didn't come with the Banpresto version.

Banpresto version have lighter red coloring compared to Bandai's version which is darker.

In term of articulation the Bandai version have better ones compared to the Banpresto version for me.

Honestly I like the Bandai version better with its coloring and I think it can pose better than the Banpresto version. Besides, theres also the Bandai Weissritter Chogokin to pair up with, not sure if there is Banpresto version.

For playability Banpresto's Alteisen is a better choice but for posing and display its Bandai's Alteisen.

I see, thank you very much.
