The Art of War Beherit is about 2 inches tall and 1.5 inches at the thickest point. It looks very realistic.

The Black Swordsman figure you linked to is almost definitely a custom job. It's certainly not done by Art of War.

Yes but it's on the yz toysite, Walter. It says it's a NEW figure from Art of War. It also seems to be pretty expensive. When I went to Yahoo Japan's auction site, there was a new Swordsman figure that came out called FIELD ACTION GUTS that looked like it also had a cloth cape. If the figure mentioned was custom, then it wouldn't be for sale ( in August, so the site says). I am waiting though to see how different this action figure is from the rest . Why buy it if it looks just like the regular black Swordsman? A cloth cape isn't going to make me want it any more.

The Field Action Guts has its arm raised up real high and over its back, plus it seems to be grinning madly that I saw on yahoo Japan.

You see this is so confusing. You're right about just getting the ones that are the most appealing and not just every figure that comes along in all its variations.

By custom, I mean any company that's not Art of War. It could be Sao Hok's Cha Cha Berserk figure company for all we know, but it's not an Art of War figure. Look at the style of it.

thanks for the help on the Beherit Walter, and i agree it dose not look like art of war works the puldron is way to big for the arm plus the it's not as detailed as the art of war figure! Then again that is just one picture and stuff almost always looks better in person

I asked my guy in Japan to find out about that Guts and he says he's pretty sure it is Art of War. But we'll see. The SK figure on Horseback is Art of War though.

Actually I admit that some of the Art of War figures even...for the price they charge, the quality sometimes is not too good. The Griffith Millenium Hawk statue I have...almost broke the spurs on his boots and his sword got bent out of shape so I had to straighten it. I guess getting bent is better than breaking though.

I am waiting to see if this buyer in Japan can also find the SK figure as well..that new figure of SK on horseback is really cool.

There IS a new action figure of Guts that is by Art of War I believe called FIELD ACTION GUTS.

It's available on the street but it isn't on the company website? Hmmm... Just like the 2nd Season, I'll believe it when I see an official annoucement.

Hey LG, do you happen to have a picture of the Field Action Guts? I'm just curious because about a year ago I saw a Guts figure that seems to fit the grinning madly description, but he didn't appear to be poseable at all; just a large plastic "statue". Maybe if I see what you're talking about I can tell you if that's what I saw or not. The figure I'm talking about was definitely Art of War though.

It's made by a NON Art of War company

The Field Action Guts is actually a Black Swordsman version of Guts MADE BY A DIFFERENT COMPANY other than Art of War. I'll e mail you a pic. It's less detailed and I got confused because I thought it was a new Art of War action figure, but the maker is DX or something like that.
