Top 5 most wanted Tamashii Nations S.H.Figuarts Berserk figures
One of my all time favorite manga and stories in general is Berserk, and the moment that SHFiguarts teased that they were getting into this series for action figures I couldn't wait to see what was coming! So far we've gotten two versions of Guts, and one Griffith, and already I'm really impressed with the figures revealed and sorely hope to see the line continue and to build out more of this horrifying universe. From more allies to villains from the manga series, these next five slots are my top most wanted hopes to see realized from SHFiguarts' Berserk line of figures!
5. More Guts and Griffith
As the leads in the series I am expecting to see both Griffith and Guts multiple more times through the life of the line, as the versions we're so far getting have been absolutely killer! Guts has so many iconic looks from the series to choose from, and with his Berserker armor designs knocked out of the park already I would love for them to go back and give us a Guts from the Band of the Hawk, Griffith too! And speaking of Griffith, getting him as Femto is such a visually striking design and would be possibly one of the coolest figures in the line as well!
4. Casca
To complete the Berserk trinity we would need Casca, Guts' focal love interest, and Griffith's tool for power. She's one of the best female leads in the series, causing us to hate Griffith even more when he eventually destroys her mind. Her Band of the Hawk design would be the much more dynamic and action figure oriented design in her armored form; however, her robed appearance from later in the series would match up with the Guts and Griffith we've got now.3. Serpico
As iconic as the Band of the Hawk and Golden Age storyline is, I find myself gravitating more towards Guts' party post-time skip, most of all Serpico who is one of the coolest characters in the series. As a mere human he has been able to give Guts a challenge in a sword fight more than once, displaying his own calculating mind and fighting prowess. With the designs of Guts and Griffith we've gotten so far he would fit in well with the display and time period of the series we've been building up.2. Skull Knight
These last two slots are the ones that would truly work as action figures in the line, and stand out easily against most other action figures. The Skull Knight is an enigmatic figure who has shown us several times in the series without being fully explained, but always against the forces of evil. He has faced down Zodd, saved Guts from the Eclipse, and generally looks insane with his skull visage, and skeleton suit of armor! The line has included a horse with Griffith, so I could easily see them doing the same for Skull Knight's mare!1. Demons
I hope the line is successful enough to dip into larger scale characters, because I would kill for the demons from the series and this is where SHFiguarts would truly be able to thrive. Zodd is the most obvious choice to be made, being the most well known, and most frequently appearing of the primary demon antagonist throughout the series. Others like Wyald and Mozgus would be very welcome additions as well, making for some epic, intimidating pieces to pose the Guts figure against. The One Piece line has already jumped into massive figures like Kaido, so hopefully Berserk's line will garner the same support to do the same kind of jumbo sized figures!
