Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
This weekend is Silver Week in Japan! Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday are all public holidays!! I’m quite looking forward to it, I think I’ll even try and brave the world outside my house for a while!!
Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…
From the popular drama series that received a number of awards, ‘Breaking Bad’ comes a 1/6th scale action figure of Jesse Pinkman! Breaking Bad is the story of Walter White, a simple middle aged high school teacher who is diagnosed with lung cancer, and decides to start cooking meth in order to provide money to his family once he passes away. Jesse is one of Walter’s ex-student from the high school he worked at, who also happens to have experience with selling drugs, which leads to the two of them working together as partners.
The figure captures all the fine details of Jesse’s outfit and character, creating a figure that looks as if he has jumped out of the screen and into your collection! He also comes with a variety of optional parts including clothing items made from real fabric such as a leather jacket, a hoodie and a balaclava. Four stacks of money, a pistol (Ruger LCR Revolver) and hand parts to display him holding the pistol are also all included allowing you to enjoy Jesse in all sorts of different poses from the show! |
Ooooh!! (*´Д`)=з
From the critically acclaimed series ‘Breaking Bad’ comes an action figure of Walter White’s ‘Business Partner’ Jesse Pinkman!! For those of you who have never seen the series before…
What is Breaking Bad?
Breaking Bad is the story of Walter White, a simple middle aged high school teacher who is diagnosed with lung cancer, and decides to enter the world of drugs in order to provide money to his family once he passes away. Using his chemistry knowledge he cooks crystal meth of unrivalled purity which quickly dominates the market. This eventually leads to him becoming ‘Heisenburg’, the drug dealer.

Anyway, let’s get back to the figure!
Jesse Pinkman is sculpted with his most memorable hairstyle – a rather stylish shaved look! The shaved hairstyle, the wrinkles and bumps on his face, even the way his eyes are focused… everything looks exactly like it did in the series!!
It’s incredibly realistic!
His outfit is made from actual fabric, which brings out the realistic appearance even more! (´□`。)
If we take a look from the back you’ll notice that amazing details on his leather jacket! Even the embroidered pattern has been carefully recreated in figure size!!
Also take note of his shoes!!
The shoes have a kind of worn appearance that makes them look well-used! You can even see some dirt at some of the edges!! Also take note of the texture of his trousers! (●´ω`●)
By the way, this is actually the second figure in this series, following on from the main character, Heisenburg! (。・ω・)ノ゙

If you choose to grab both of them, you can create poses like this! They look ready to go pick up some cash from a deal!
As I’m sure you can tell from the balaclava… they are not making money in the most honest of ways… (/ω\)
Jesse comes with a number of different parts to help recreate scenes like this, including a pistol and four stacks of money!
I also love the way you can add display the money sticking out from his hoodie pockets!!
It brings out his his character really nicely! Anyway, let’s move on to my favorite photo for today…! ♡
Half-wearing the Hoodie! ( ✧Д✧)
As you can tell, you can remove his jacket and the hoodie underneath for all sorts of different display options! As they are made from real fabric you can also create poses like this! ★
Uh-oh…
Looks like a fight is breaking out between the two…! <○><○>
I wonder if one is trying to cheat the other out of money?!
They seemed to be getting along so much better above!! (/ω\)
While these figures only come with a single expression ‘part’, they are so well articulated that you can create all sorts of different emotions just through posture and body movements! ε=(。・д・。)
This allows you to recreate a number of scenes from the series, as well as create you very own original scenes! ★
Oh, another thing I have to point out!
He can even wear the hood!!
Suddenly he looks a lot more… sad in this pose! Once again you can see how changing the pose can really affect the emotion!! I’m sure you can create all sorts of things with different possibilities with the right angles and lighting!
Enjoy a work of art that looks like it jumped right out of the series and into your collection! threezero’s…
He is currently up for preorder!
