《鴉 KARAS》的故事描述了一個充滿妖怪的虛構新宿裡，一個名叫乙羽的人與新宿的事。乙羽是一名「鴉」，那是一個由城市認可的守護者角色，當乙羽（或其他的認可為鴉的人）處在「鴉」的型態時，他通常是一個武士一般的面貌，不過也曾以飛機、車子這類機械物體的面貌出現。乙羽則是新宿新的鴉，他也是一個黑道的兒子。所謂的城市認可即一個百合音為一個都市的意志的代理人，藉由一個百合音的指定，可以選出一個城市的鴉。除了新宿的百合音以外，也曾出現過其他都市的百合音。在故事裡，前任的「鴉」——迴向，意圖控制他以前保護的新宿。而乙羽和其他妖怪以及其他的「鴉」則試著對抗他。(轉自維基百科)
鴉KARAS是個人近年少數很喜歡的動畫之一，最為吸引的莫過於其緊密的節奏、流暢、極具氣勢及壓迫感十足的動作場面。可惜這套動畫的FIGURE產品就只有以前推出過的MAX FACTORY S.O.G 鴉系列，但基於其體積細小價格卻非常昂貴的關係，一直都沒有入手。直到今次MORETOY推出了這隻1/6的乙羽鴉，對本人來講可以說是一個喜訊。不過MORETOY究竟是一間什麼公司？為什麼放在HOTTOYS那賣？跟HOTTOYS有什麼關係？是HOTTOYS的子公司嗎？這一切都不是太清楚，不過有得玩總好過無得玩。
面相一覽。整隻也是以黑色為主調，上色沒什麼好說，但邊線上色就這類FIGURE來講個人就覺得有點粗糙了。另外眼部用了透明件，表面還有跟原著一樣的類似羽毛的紋理。既然眼部都用了透明件了，為什麼心口的珠不用透明件而要普通上紅色？如果用回透明件再加上"鴉"的字印在裡面的話，精細度及完成度會更高，實在可惜呢。
很多人都會以MAX的那隻鴉來跟這隻互相比較，覺得MORETOY的鴉有所不及。個人覺得論造型及可動MAX的那隻鴉的確造得很準很到位，而MORETOY的這隻鴉在比例及選材上的確有所不足。另外兩者分別給我兩種感覺，MAX的那隻比較生化系而MORETOY這隻就比較屬於真實系，各有味道。這隻畢竟是MORETOY的第一炮，唯有期待他日的進步吧。
背部一覽。刀鞘跟刀有鎖鏈纏繞著，可重現封印狀態。
腰帶一覽。這個部份製作很一般。
手臂的刺是硬膠而且很尖，把玩時要小心弄傷自己又或者弄斷它。腳上的皮帶及扣如果是獨立選材去造而不是跟腳套一模過，感覺上精細度又可以再上升一點。
乙羽就算變身成鴉，刀也是被封印著的，要其百合音允許解除封印才會解封。
解除封印！當然鎖鏈是可解的，刀亦可收納在刀鞘內，重現拔刀的場面。
刀是鐵製的，有一點點重量感。基於肩甲及肩甲上的披甲都是硬膠，所以舉手幅度極為有限。另外手臂關節可動幅度也只有90度多一點點。
招牌架式～
付有動畫中拔刀後變小了的刀鞘。
下身的可動同樣不大，大腿甲同樣是厚硬膠，阻礙了不少活動能力。
武完，收刀！
配件一覽，可惜沒有紅眼頭及大刀。另外付有一個印有鴉字的地台。總覺得今次手掌差了一隻，就是沒右手的打開掌形，做不了招牌姿勢～

Hi, I think you are among the first to do a review of the moretoy karas. Thank you so much. I have been trying to find one for ages. This came little bit late for me though, because I already got this moretoy figure (no regrets getting it at all). This review would be very helpful to those who want to know more about the figure before commiting to buy it. One thing I would like to point out is that this a 1/6 figure, not 1/4.
I agree a lot with your comparison of this figure with the max factory one. Although the max one wins hands down, there are plenty of nice features this figure has over the max one. I like my max karas a lot. I like this moretoy one quite a lot as well (though not as much as the max one). The only thing I can say is that moretoy try to make this figure to have more human proportions (like what you said "more 比较真实系"). It also try to make the figure as anime accurate as possible; but possibly limited by the budget (production cost) for better materials.
Do you find the angle that the sword sheath attaches to the back of the figure is a little bit off (too much to the horizontal)? Your first few photos look ok, but the second last seem to show the problem that I mentioned. Did you do something to the 3 'claws' at the back?
I tried to adjust mine but ended up breaking one of the claws. The claw did not actually break, it just came loose of the groove that it was glued to during production. Therefore. it should not be a major proplem gluing it back on my own.
I enjoyed your other reviews as well. I have your site bookmarked. Keep up the good work! I will definitely come back for more.

Legolas:
First of all thanks for your compliment.Is it really 1/6 scale?As i have asked the staff of Hottoys when i preorder it, they said that it is 1/4 scale and it is bigger than other 1/6 figures as well.I don't know the setting of how tall "鴉" is so i just trust the staff.
For the problem of the "claws" you mentioned, actually i didn't do anything to them.
Once more, thank you for your compliment and i will keep on to do some good reviews and share to you guys who love figure as well.

Hi, I measured the Moretoy Karas and it is about 35 cm in height (many people quoted as 14 inch in ebay). So I guess this Karas is actually not quite to scale. The Karas in the movie is about human height or slightly taller (I also compared his height with other characters in Tatsunoko Vs Capcom video game). Let's say if Karas is 180 cm, a 1/4 scale would give a height of about 45 cm; a 1/6 scale will give a height of about 30 cm.
However, I think it would be more appropriate to display it with 1/6 scale figures. It is taller than the Hot Toys Arnold T-800 human form figure, but shorter than the supposedly Enterbay 1/4 scale Bruce Lee HD-1002 ETD Statue.
Will be back for more of your reviews.

估唔到你買咗，更估不到你對它的評價竟然還不錯～～～
我本來也有點期待的，但見到實物後覺得比例和身型都出了問題，高近14寸，小腿太粗，身和頭都偏大，皮衫麻麻就好似我自制的拉打衫般，而盔甲與BODY間的空洞亦太大了。
我無MAX那只，但憑記憶中去比較都覺得這款唔太好。
［我初時見在HT店頭擺住，以為系HT出品添～～～～～］

Elljay兄係咪會錯意?上面都係彈既多～都無咩特別讚佢，上面我都有提及到佢身形比例的確係有問題的～只是覺得佢整體感覺同MAX個隻有2種味道而已。好多人話佢頭細，你反而覺得大添＠＠我就覺得頭既上半PART窄左D～

Hi, its me again. I am doing a comparison review on the Max Factory and Moretoy Karas. I would like to get your permission to use some of your photos in the review. Will it be alright? The web address (about only 1/4 complete) is http://toycollect.weebly.com/sword.html. For every reference of your photo, I will put a link to reference back to this site. Hope to hear from you soon.
