But he was totally uncharismatic and the plan he made to kill his own daughter was absolutely retarded. Doppio was way better than the actual Diavolo.

>>5664454
better then cars' most generic plan ever written?

>>5664460
whoops meant to say worse.

>>5664460
No. Not really.

>>5664482
there both horrible, but diavolo gets an edge because of KC. Cars is just generic villian with a generic power. diavolo is generic villian with a cool power.

>>5664460

A generic plan is always better than a completely absurd one.

>>5664494
>jojo's generic adventure
you're right

>>5664489
so wrong though. a generic plan is fucking boring while an absurd one can actually be interesting. and literally every villians plan in jojo is absurd.

Kindly take the "which JoJo characters are shit/not shit" to the regular JoJo threads. We don't need to shit up the SAS threads to reaffirm that Diavolo is a shit villain on his own.

GENIOUS


King Crimson is awesome, but as a villain Diavolo sucks balls. He's just a pussy too paranoid and scared to show his face, and his schemes are so utterly ridiculous that even some Bond villains would feel ashamed. How can someone like him be the boss of a criminal syndicate is beyond understanding.

Question here
Does the rerelease of Jotaro 2nd still come with the updated head sculpt for the first Jotaro?

>>5664794
No.

Yeah but it depends how easy it is to find the 1.5 release.

Gotcha. Thanks.
I have the 2nd coming in an amiami order, but I did also want the original color version too.

>>5664822
I don't mind looking around. Better than wasting my money on the original without the better heads to replace for it.

I think your fine if the order was made yesterday. I'd imagine they check in online orders at the same time when someone comes into the store for the same item.

>>5665482
Was it any part 4 shit? If they were buying in bulk they must've been scalpers or resellers.
Sounds like you just ran into a unicorn.

>>5665725
I wasn't really paying attention, just they were in the area with Jojo stuff and making a few trips back and forth to the register. It was mostly stuff like prize figures though.

At this rate, Di Molto Bene is gonna drag Medicos down with them, with the absolutely ludicrous and unfounded, delusional prices on these things.

how does Medicos decide what gets re-released? i really want fucking Okusayu

>>5665965
>$400
That is just not cool.

>>5666113
I'd imagine someone in the company had to make a serious case making it at that price. I'm not a big scale collector but are they a decent line? I just don't see what justifies that insane cost.

>>5666121
No, the material used here is overpriced and fragile, the paint looks shit from what you can see, and neither AmiAmi nor Di Molto Bene can even guarantee, at that fucking price, that it will arrive in one piece.

To make matters worse for them, their last product of the same line had a lot of QC issues, couldn't even properly use the chair it came with, was inconsistently painted and had a lot of smudges.

I think the only excuse for it to be that expensive is the scuplt, its much larger than anything they've done and much more complicated than anything they've done at almost a full 12" tall.

I've got the Vanilla Ice & Cream 3rd SL and it is a pretty nice figure, but some like Keicho have glaring issues that make them not worth the price.

>>5666121
most scales nowadays cost 80-160 bucks. you can't justify that price at all. even half of that would be way too much.

>>5666134
>some like Keicho have glaring issues that make them not worth the price
To be fair, the error I pointed out >>5664249 was for an original release for Keicho 1st. It was corrected later, and I believe the 2nd version never had that issue.

Although it's still an error that should've never existed in the first place. Fucking amazing.

Those are from the "Adventure Battle Card" line. Like most trading cards, there are cards of varying rarity for characters, others for locations and such. Can't say I know much else about them, though.

There's also a shit-ton of those cards. At least 800 or so.

It's not too late to jump on the SAS bandwagon for articulated figures. I'm mostly slowing down now until Part 7 rolls around or until Baoh gets colored and has a release date.

Or maybe if a Josuke 3rd gets announced in order to follow up Jotaro 3rd when Part 3 was airing. Lots of potential but a serious downtime unless you're heavily invested into their Tokyo Ghoul ip since they have 3 releases lined up.

I've posted my Stroheim SL before and never caught flak. I know the board rules should be obeyed but maybe we can make an exception just for the medicos/Jojo thread.

>>5667465
I've just got the Master Stars Piece Rohan (which is much bigger than I'd expected) and six of the World Collectable Figures so far. I'm hitting up a convention next week, so maybe I'll find soemthing new to add to my collection then.

My buddy really wants one of those Stroheims and, speaking of SLs, I'm eyeing the recolor Mikitaka currently.

>>5664331

Also does the store matter for Mandy? Getting S&W, options are Nagoya and Nakano

Yes, store matters.

Learn how to use the FAQ.

>>5668565
What does undervaluing actually mean? Feels stupid asking but does it mean like haggling with the stores or something? Both have it listed at the same price and condition

>>5668577
Undervalue = what the prices are on the parcel's customs documentation.

You'd still have to pay whatever is in the store, just that Mandarake won't list the item prices cheaper on the package itself. Consumers who live in Canada, Europe, etc have an issue with custom fees, but if you're a Burger you don't have to worry.

>>5668596
Ah, okay, thanks. I'm a burger anyway, and both stores are listed as "yes" to undervalue. It's only one SAS that's cheap anyway so I'm not too worried about price

Ordered Gappy and Purple Haze. Now the wait begins.

So will >>5669207 or >>5669312 cancel their orders, or be fated to get raped by inflated prices?

>>5669358
Yeah and a Kira too. I snagged both lol. Gonna try and cancel the other one even though I know Mandy can be stubborn. If not I can easily make my money back. I'm pretty much done with SAS now though except for upcoming releases. So it's been a productive night.

Kind of tempted to get those Kinnikumen, especially Warsman 2nd. Any anon's can recommend them or should I stick to figuarts?

And so it's gone. I was eying that Kars, it was real cheap too but I shouldn't be spending anymore money. I feel like I'm never gonna see one at that price again though.

was about to swipe the whamuu on manda when I saw there was an okuyasu lets all pray to the plastic gods that i get it

>>5669377
There's one up for 5k right now.

I'm almost done for now, still haven't decided if it's worth getting Part 1 Dio, Part 4 Jotaro/Star plat, and the part 6's.

Will probably jump on part 6 if I can get a good bunch of them for a good price. It always seems like the second you bite on a figure, it pops up a week later for $10 cheaper.

>>5669368
Wonky proportions, no options for other characters aside from Robin and Buffaloman. Has a toe joint, at least. Figure itself is good but the hip joints are distracting.

Stick with superior Figuarts. Sold my three SAS and never looked back since (though SAS Buffaloman did a better job)

Norisuke IV and King Nothing also have with high chances. Maybe even Tsurugi. I'm not sure about the chances of Kira and Josefumi because they just appeared but people seems to like them a lot.

>>5670034
I can see Tsurugi being bundled with Yasuho.

>>5669998
I am, but more so for the sake of completion as part of the Tokyo Ghoul cast (which I hope gets expanded upon beyond the three currently announced ones)

Otherwise, I don't find him all that appealing. Much too blocky, and suits have been done way better and less jarringly by Medicos in the past. The colours are kind of meh, too, and he doesn't come with a kakugan activated face, nor the second shape of his kagune.

But I want to support that particular line, too, so I'll get him for that other reason.

>>5669998
Maybe if they do a second with fabulous manga colors.

Face sculpt could be improved upon but if I remember right Medicos rushed out S&W and Josuke for Jojolion rather than wait it out when they get there.

He's not half bad given the neat articulation on his shirt and the accessories he comes with for different situation and for other figures. As of right now it would take a few years before Medicos revisits Jojolion depending on their new IP's. At the very least he's in the cheaper end of the spectrum for SAS collecting.

I have The Hand 2nd on my Mandarake watch list, just waiting for a reasonably priced WF Jolyne to add to the cart.

I'm waiting on my winning auctions for Jotaro 2nd+4taro, Star Platinum 2nd, and both Kiras with the WF Kosaku head.

That Kiras+Kosaku auction was kind of a gamble considering that they're in used condition and missing at least one item (quote/soundplate). I'm hoping it was worth it.

Did you win that bid anon? How much did it end up costing you?

>>5670575
>Did you win that bid anon? How much did it end up costing you?
Yeah, I did. It's about 9500 yen with domestic shipping (before shipping to the US).

I'd normally hope to pay about 4000-5000 yen for the Kosaku head alone, so I decided to go for the auction.

>>5670585
I'd say that's alright

so how much does that josuke head go for? I really don't want to buy crazy diamond 2nd.

>>5670602
Hard to say unless you want to check out all the sold out listings off Mandarake. The Kosaku head was listed often at 10k before some stores dropped him at 4 but you also get KQ3rd's non-SHA hand also.

Honestly just grab CD2nd before he somehow jacks up in price and you start searching a lot for one.

Alternatives is either Yahoo Auction Japan or some random anon here in /bst/

What're the odds someone on here prefers this Mista colour scheme and the other variant's silver Sex Pistols?

I'd be willing to buy both, exchange the Stand, and sell you this one with the silver SP, and pay for the shipping myself.


Yes, I'm this desperate.

>>5671144

>>5671151
Are you serious?

I'm a bit new to this but I figured asking here would be best. Are there any figures that have major issues I should be aware of? Mainly speaking for the Old Joseph and other Stardust Crusaders figures.

I've been told the first run of Old Joseph had bad hip joints (how ironic), and that the rerelease fixed those issues. How can I tell which one is a rerelease, or is it a bit of a gamble? Thanks in advance!

>>5671227
Black DIO has notorious QC issues. Other than him and what you've mentioned QC varies from figure to figure.

This morning I paid for Kars, WF Joseph, Blue Caesar, Silver Chariot from Part 5, and Purple Josuke. It hurts.

So I got fucking lucky as fuck that night. Managed to get the Kira and KQ2nd at 9400 yen and Umeda once again jewed me and sold it despite grabbing it 2 minutes after it's listing but it worked in my favour.

I just need an awakened dio to finish my rogues gallery. Might start a heroes and sidekick display to accompanu it.

josuke wont skyrocket, right?

>>5671227
Well if you buy from Mandarake they tell you that by saying something like [Resale] in the title
Meaning it is a reissued version

>>5671441
They won't if you're just keen to collecting Josuke 1st and CD1st. The reissues probably eased the chances of them being marked up due to demand.

>>5671470
well thats good i guess. its gonna hurt when i have to look for crazy diamond second for the extra josuke head.

>>5671474
I've seen one on Mandy for either 7 or 9k. Up to you if you feel that's worth the cost.

>>5671474
if i remember correctly, when they re-issued josuke 1st, they gave him a bigger neck joint, so the extra head with CD 2nd will only work well with an original release josuke

>>5671504

Who else has experienced shit elbow syndrome?

I just got a used Dio off Mandarake and his elbow popped off after posing the figure for a few minutes and just will not go back on, it just flies off immediately and won't click in place.

Same thing happened to my WF Jolyne but I didn't notice it came off until weeks later and that shit is gone.

Any advice? Is it safe to try to glue it on there? Any easy way to sculpt a replacement for the missing one?

>>5674571
Caesar 1st, Jolyne 1st, and WF GER.

I didn't want to tackle fixing them since I wasn't sure if the adhesive I have (tamashii plastic cement) would lock the joint or somehow keep the piece in place. Looking at your pic and my WFGER maybe a really small dab in the deepest crevice of the elbow piece and careful placement may be the thing needed.

>>5674592
Yeah I put some glue on just the one side that does not have the moving parts of the ball joints on it and on the tip of the elbow joint part past the little hole, making sure to not get any glue on the back side where the hinge and seams for the ball joints are.

Seems to be holding so far and since no glue got in the cracks of the joints everything moves fine still.

I've got some warhammer green sculpting putty, I might try making a replacement for Jolyne's elbow at some point and trying to match the skin color on the paint as close as possible. I have a Jolyne 1st now too, but I haven't decided if I want to do an elbow transplant or leave it as is for now until I make the new one.

Anyone know how I correct this elbow issue? The joint isn't snapped into place. I tried using almost boiling water to make it softed to try and remove the joint, nothing. I tried pushing on it while warm. Nothing. I gave up because I didn't want to break it and it still functions, just looks bad.

It's not Jotaro 1st bad but I'd imagine if Medicos actually waited and refined his head sculpt more it would be far better than what we have now.

it doesn't fucking look like him

youre blind then

>>5678614
What part specifically doesn't look like him?

>>5678616
the most important part, his head.

>>5678634
No, seriously, I'm genuinely curious as to what you think looks so wrong with it.

anon, do you think this looks like >>5678560
you have to be trolling right? are you not reading part 8? the head sculpt is fucked. if you don't see it then something is wrong with you

>>5678659
Not him, but it's nowhere near as bad as everyone claims it to be.

>>5678659
Like, I do see some issues,The main thing is the shape being a bit too soft, but otherwise the rest isn't all that far off.

>>5678670
>>5678679
whatever, this is the type of argument that will go on forever, enjoy your figure. i, and most other anons, will wait for them to hopefully fix it with a second edition.

>Stop liking what I don't like! Don't buy toys I don't approve of!
Any suggestions on my Joseph's hole with the extra fragments?

>>5678702
i never said anything like that anon, i just merely criticized the quality of the toy. i didn't even say anything remotely close to that.

>>5678695
Hey, I'm not saying I would mind a redone sculpt, I'm just saying the current one isn't so bad.

>>5678718
its bad by the normal sas standard when it comes to sculpts, the last one they fucked was jotaro. but it ultimately doesn't matter. at least soft & wet is ok.

>>5678723
Ok, that's fair.

>>5678659
looks like a baby's face tbqh

>>5678702
>Any suggestions on my Joseph's hole with the extra fragments?
You're the anon from >>5671954 I assume. Would any small screwdriver bits help to break down the extra plastic?

so some of my stands are loose. is the best way to tighten them just to use a screwdriver? i dont even think i have a philip's that small.

>>5678797
Yep, and it shouldn't be hard to find one that size. Smaller screwdrivers can be quite useful in general.

>>5678695
and much like the argument, you'll be waiting forever as Medicos sculpts Tokyo Ghoul and a billion Rohans instead.

I dunno, I think his head sculpt looks alright. Or maybe just his profile.

why does it take mandarake 2 full days to check their stock? is my dream of a 2500 yen crazy d over?

>>5680337
Stuff happens or they are busy with other orders. Just be patient anon.

>that image

Now I'm reminded why I avoid that general.

>>5680348
they've actually been pretty calm this week with the new chapter going up. only meme that is actually around is terufag. hopefully your right anon. I was surprised to see that good a deal on crazy d when josukes are going for 40 right now.

>>5680354
It's the only time I can tolerate those threads is when the manga is updated but anything after is just not my cup of tea.

It's possible the reissue status and all the Crazy Diamonds that will fill the site can tempt a front to reduce the price on a few or just one for a quick sale. I still remember nabbing a WF Joseph at 8500 well after sellers marked him up to 13k+. Right time and right place I suppose.

I'm only there for when someone gets dubs or more with 4s so I can spam Guido Mista images.

Fuck, these look good.
I have been leaning on buying a SAS but couldn't decide on who.
I think now though, i'll go with KQ and probably Kira. Does Kira come with a Kosaku head?

>>5680469
You sort of use your fingernail and pull the bottom part of his abdomen up slowly. My Killer Queen sort of pries loose and comes off easily after that.

Only KQ3rd but if you're keen with just the head and hand piece Mandy had some for 4k. Not sure on that now though.

>>5680485
Sorry mis-read your post. I usually associated the Kosaku head as his post David Bowie form and his final form head as Bite The Dust Kira.

Rohan and Kira rerelease when?
