HISTORY

I have no information on this figure other than it is a devil, complete with horns, hooves, tail and very large wings. No scale is given, but I would estimate it at 1/7 or 1/8. I also think that the title should be ungulate instead of unglate, as the figure is definitely a split hoof devil, but I've come to expect little things like this from Chinese companies.

THE KIT

Typical of E-2046 figure kits, there is but a sliver of the resin casting blocks. They even go so far as to sand away most of the mold seams on large pieces. This really speeds up the building process. The engineering is such that the pieces fit very well and often in such a way that you can prepaint pieces prior to assembly. To top it off the pieces are packaged separately and E-2046 packages their kits in such a way that they arrive from their trip from Hong Kong in perfect condition.

If there is a downside to these figures it is that shipping can be quite expensive. This one is still in their catalogue and the shipping is nearly $32.00.  In addition, there is no assembly guide for most of these; simply a photograph of the completed model. In addition, no painting guide is given, but then again, this is not all that unusual even for military figures.

The figure is your standard  anime figure that provides 33 pieces, one of which is a large base. Since this is a later tooling, the kit does include a decal for the eyes, which many like as they find painting eyes to be difficult. In reality, they are not difficult to do once one has built a few of these kits. Also like some of their kits, this one is clothing optional for the top. Even though the join areas are fairly well defined, pinning some of the larger bits would be a good idea. The kit also has more than the usual number of somewhat small pieces.

CONCLUSIONS

Those of us who have built figure kits from E-2046 have liked them and find that the fit is such that the kit can go together fairly quickly. Some of them are quite complex both in the number of parts and the painting requirements.
