I already had the standard version for some time. Recently, I ordered the Grand Cross and World Tour 2012 versions. So I thought it'd be interesting to do a little review of them.
L'Arc~en~Ciel : Standard version
L'Arc~en~Ciel : Grand Cross version
L'Arc~en~Ciel : World Tour 2012 The Final version
I like how each member has a different, personalized stand in this edition.
Alrighty, so let's compare each member with their 3 different editions
Hyde : F.l.t.r : the Grand Cross, the World Tour 2012 and the standard version.
My personal favourite is the standard edition. Overall, I think he has the coolest look and details. Tho I admit I tend to call the World Tour version the 'Jesus' version 'cause he kinda looks like Jesus XD
Ken : F.l.t.r : the Grand Cross, the World Tour 2012 and the standard version.
It's really hard to pick a favourite Ken. They all look awesome and cool in their own way. The Grand Cross version comes with two hairpieces : with and without the sunglasses.
Yukihiro : F.l.t.r : the World Tour 2012, the Grand Cross and the standard version.
Again, I like all the different versions. Each has his own unique, cool style. So I can't really pick a favourite.
The World Tour version comes with a gas mask.
Tetsuya : F.l.t.r : the World Tour 2012, the Grand Cross and the standard version.
My favourite is again the standard version. I love his cute facial expression and his outfit. The World Tour version is a very close second. I like his winking face and his outfit.
Showing off the green highlights in Tetsuya's hair.
Love the detail on the back of the jacket.
So which edition do I like best? Well, if you are only able to get one edition, I would actually recommend the Standard version. One of its strong points is that the two guitar players can actually hold their guitars properly. With the other editions, they all have straight arms which doesn't allow for good guitar-playing poses.
In second place, I would probably got for the World Tour edition, simply 'cause it gives you lots of cool, funny outfits and accessories. How can you say 'no' to Pinky Jesus?
Tho I have to admit that I really like the Yukihiro and Ken from the Grand Cross edition. You don't see a lot of sitting or smoking Pinkys.
Hope you enjoyed the pics.
