This week, we’re building a model kit with the Bandai Spirits Demon Slayer Tanjiro model kit! Demon Slayer (Kimetsu no Yaiba) is a very popular manga and anime, its movie “Mugen Train” broke all sorts of records earlier this year in cinemas, and the second season is coming out later in 2021. It’s a tale as old as time, the story of a brother and sister, the sister gets possessed by a demon, and the brother becomes a demon slayer to try to save her, and meets other demon slayers along the way , one is a coward, and another wears the head of a boar as a mask. Like I said, classic story. The series is mostly known for its beautiful, stunning animation. Each episode is a masterpiece, beautifully animated, and the soundtrack is also very good.
I missed out on the Buzzmod Aniplex and Figma figures of Tanjiro due to discovering the series too late (and the Buzzmod one costing an arm), but since I still wanted to have him on a shelf, I picked that model kit. I was also intrigued by it, since I’m used to do either robot figures (Gundam, Evangelion) or Cup Noodle model kits.
The box!
Details about painted parts
No glue needed!
Tanjiro: Deconstructed!
Step 1: NAILED IT!
“Please… Kill me…”
Nightmare fuel!
Okay… The face and hair look pretty damn amazing.
You wouldn’t know that it’s a dozen tiny pieces clipped together. Amazing!
Behold my sticker skills… I put them *NEARLY* correctly!
Tanjiro’s “plaid shirt” in 9 pieces
It’s all just clipped together!
The first 4 parts
Tadaaa!
The level of detail is crazy. There was even a sticker for the hole under the sandal, where the straps meet!
The finished product
“I can do it. I know I can do it.”
“No matter what, I can do it! I can fight!”
“I swear your big brother will save you no matter what!”
Water Breathing: Fourth Form… Striking Tide!
Sun Breathing: Dance of the Fire God!
I like how those model kits always weigh nothing. It’s a nice little kit that was fun to build (it took about 40min), and it looks good on a shelf. If it was up to me, I would have added the big wooden box to put on his back, or next to him. There’s already another version of this one coming, with a different blade (with fire effect). No idea if they will do other characters, but I might pick them if they do.
More news at 11:00… Water Breathing: Eleventh form… Dead Calm!

BANDAI’S EVANGELION UNIT-01 DX TRANSPORT PLATFORM SET!
It's Wednesday. You know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!
Hey, you! Do you want to “Zankoku na tenshi no teeze” with us? Come check our review of the Eva-01 Bandai model kit! This week, we’re building a Bandai model kit that is slightly more complicated than the Cup Noodle kit, with the Evangelion Unit-01 DX transport platform set!
Before anything, I’d like to mention that the man in the following video is my spirit animal:
Trying something new this time, uploading a “gallery” of pics rather than the usual picture-by-picture, let’s see how it goes!
This was a fun kit. No headaches, pretty straightforward, and the result is definitely mind-blowing. It took about 6-8h in total, over 2 days. I did not put the stickers right away because I suck at it and will need to focus a bit more for that. I can post extra pics when they are added!
If you want to see some really awesome pictures from that kit, with a background that is NOT my living room table, go check my friend Francis’ page here: https://www.franksfigurepage.com/model-kits/rg-eva01
Bandai also announced an Eva-02 version of that kit. Hopefully, they do more, because we’re gonna need them all!

BREAKING NEWS:
AFTER UNDENIABLE SUCCESS OF CUP NOODLES MODEL KIT, OTHER BRANDS WANT IN TOO!!
Bandai, the giant japanese toy brand behind the Gundam model kits line (and a ton of other things), recently released a model kit so silly that we had to have it: A 1:1 scale CUP NOODLE model kit! We have posted about it on our social media, but for those who missed it, here are a few pictures from the assembly:
The box, in all its glory
It came in more parts than I would have thought…
Step 1: The bottom
The logo
Logo assembled
Assembling the cup
The cup is actually made of over 20 parts!
Now, the noodles!
Noodles, step 1
Noodles done, adding the egg bits, the shrimps, and the “mystery meat” (the brown pieces are legit called “mystery meat”
Assembling all together (the chives was a long piece of green paper that required to be cut)
Et voilà!
Hungry? Cup Noodles! Nissin.
After this model kit turned out to be a success, several other brands are now in talks with toy brands, in order to make model kits of their famous items:
-Mama Noodles, another giant in the international instant noodles industry, has contacted several model kit brands, such as Tamiya, to see if there would be an opportunity there.
-Kraft, had contacted Lego in order to see if there was any interest in bringing their Kraft Mac & Cheese box into toy form.
-Dr Oetker has been in talks with McFarlane Toys, who has released a lot of construction sets in recent years, in order to bring their frozen pizza line on toy collector’s shelves!
We will keep you informed if any deal is made!
Also, ToyFarce will give an opportunity to one of you to win that Bandai Cup Noodle model kit! Keep an eye on our social media (Facebook, Instagram) during the weekend for more info! There will be a giveaway! Stay tuned!
