(More customer reviews)I bought this figure when it came out last year. Its an accurate depiction of the Guren S.E.I.T.E.N (Superlative Extruder Interlocking Technology Exclusive Nexus, don't worry, its not really called that more than once in the entire show.) This figure would (normally) cost about the same as the Lancelot Albion, however this unit had a short production run and, unlike the Albion, hasn't been given a second run yet. Hence why the price is so remarkably high.
The joints on the figure are superb, no floppyness, poses will stay the way you left them.
Onto the accessories: First, we have the Guren's Wide-Range Disruptor Pylons that originated in the Guren Flight-Enabled, seen in this version completely parallel, sticking straight out instead of spread out. As its hard to describe I'll show a (rather terrible) image comparison

The reason for this is to replicate a scene in the Final Episode of the series. I won't spoil that for people who haven't finished it yet.
The next accessory is the MVS Fork Knife. its different from the original fork knife in that its in a Pinkish hue instead of the familiar golden yellow. That is because of the Britannian Maser Vibration Sword technology used for it, The reason its pink is (apparently) because its a stronger blade than the Lancelot's Twin MVS Blades or the Vincent's MVS Spear's.
The next accessory is an odd green disc, what do you do with it you suppose? Its supposed to connect to the Guren's arm as a means of replicating the Energy Disc's that the Guren SEITEN can now shoot out....
But wait, wasn't it red?
Thats correct, the reason the disc is green is due to a manufacturing error. They DID in fact release a Red Disc, but it was only available with the Guren X Lancelot HYPER SET, an Tamashii Web exclusive containing Extra accessories for the Guren SEITEN and the Lancelot Albion that were not included with the original figures, however coming across a HYPER SET on the Secondhand market is difficult and when they are found are usually very expensive (The original price was set at Approx. $20, but the Secondhand market bloats it to $50+ Usually.)
The Next accessory is the Guren's Energy Wings, these wings are the defining feature of the Guren SEITEN (Apart from the bird like "eyes" on the front of the unit and the Gold Radiation Gauntlet.) The wings are not made of hard plastic, but instead made from a flexible plastic that works really well for the design of the wings, they are also very articulated, allowing for many poses.
The final accessory is the Twin Slash harkens, in order to use them you must remove the arms and replace the red spikes on the Arm socket with the Slash harken, the wire is bendable, and is very durable granted you don't bend it in 90 Degree angles, as doing that will more than likely snap the wire.
This is an excellent figure, my only gripe with it is that there is no small figurine of Kallen (The Guren's Pilot) To put inside the pilot seat, like there was for the Gawain and the Burai (Zero Use). but its negligable. As most people wouldn't want to pose the Guren with the cockpit open anyway.
All in all, I highly reccomend this product to any fan of Code Geass, the Guren, or even the Pilot, Kallen.
