After nearly ending Peruzen's life, Chirico was thrown into the final battle of Sunsa. Peruzen had been watching Chirico for many years, and had become convinced that Chirico's miraculous recuperative powers made him unkillable a supreme survivor. There, he was scrutinized by the commanding officer, Colonel Yoran Peruzen. but over the subsequent years, he proved himself to be far from ordinary.Įnlisting in the Melkian army as an Armored Trooper pilot, Chirico distinguished himself in many battles against the Balarant and was transferred at age 16 to the elite Red Shoulder Battalion. Chirico witnessed their deaths, and survived burns that would have killed an ordinary human. He has no memory of his life prior to his 10th year, in which he lived on the planet Sunsa with adoptive parents who found him in a refugee center and were studying his unusual healing abilities - until they were killed in the first of many enemy invasions. It has been more that a few years since they released any new Yutaka SZ figures but I hope Yutaka continues the line.As the central character around which Votoms revolves, Chirico Cuvie is haunter by two pasts - one he cannot remember and another he cannot forget. It is also a great way to get parts for a broken or missing Bandai SZ figure or use the figure for one of the four Bandai SZ uniform sets that were manufactured in the 1980's. Yamato has released an amazing Chirico figure in the same scale for their Scopedog figure but I really love the Spiral zone charm the Yutaka figure has. Chirico Cuvie was a great subject to manufacture. On the positive it's great to see somebody finally revive the line. But At $9.99 buying another and gluing the parts on wouldn't be a great loss. I wish Yutaka had manufactured the Chirico's equipment differently, with snap on belts and equipment. I'm just glad I didn't pay $40.00 for it because it's just not a $40.00 quality figure. Side to side: On the left is the Yutaka SZ type body, On the right is the original 1980's Hyper Boxer Bandai Spiral Zone Figure.
I chose not to glue the parts on and will use a couple rubber bands to keep the Items on for display. The neck collar ring part badly designed as the hole suit is larger than the neck collar ring.
Yutaka chooses to have all the belts, oxygen tank, shoulder pads and other small parts glued to the figure's orange rubber outfit. Bandai SZ figures were like small model kits, they came with spruce of armor, belts and gun parts but after one was assembled it can be played with then taken apart to be stored back into the package. But this is where I feel that the designers at Yutaka lost focus. One feature I was happy with is figure comes with his cool helmet and pouch belt kit. The three other figures in this line all have cloth outfits why this one was rubber I don't know. It also takes a bit time to remove the outfit because it sticks to the figure. Although the rubber suit does looks sharp on Chirico I never like rubber as main feature of toys as over the years it usually easily breaks apart or becomes very sticky and attracts dust. Chirico's rubber suit is molded in four parts: the pants, the shirt and both the left and right arms.
Original Bandai SZ figures included one piece clothe suits in their sets. One item I was disappointed in was the figure's uniform, which was made a sticky orange rubber.
