Branwen was made AFTER the joint changes IIRC. So she should be fine.

Echidna though, she never got a Legacy and was made before the joint change, so chances are any Echidna is going to be floppy as fuck.

The QB series is a weird one since they were made both before and after the joint change, so one figure in the line might be fine while the other might be the shit older joints that caused people to dislike revo's. It's why people want Legacy Melona and Menace so badly, because they have shit joints AND they were popular as fuck for being tittymonsters.

Isnt BBTS popular for western figures like Marvel Legends? I'd imagine MH would be popular enough on our side and sell out like it would on the east if Monster Hunter players saw that listing and wanted one.

BBTS usually carries a large stock of most things from what I've seen though. Just surprised it sold out.

Well, he's here. And he kinda sucks. The torso hinge is stuck, the face/head is hilariously awful, and the hip configuration looks like a trainwreck.
>>
>>5705364
That's pretty much exactly what I though when I first got him, minus the stuck torso. I was pretty new to revoltechs at the time and I came around on some others since, but I don't regret selling him.
>>
>>5705364
You didn't expect the face to be bad? I figured that's everyone expectations when people plan to get him.

You could try some warm water and move him around to loosen the torso. I do agree the hips could be better since mines keep popping out the hole but he has some surprising articulation.

Positioning the eyes helps a bit but at this scale a good face is hard believe for Snake. I don't mind it and at certain angles I can see Snake in some stylized form.

I just hope GSC or Max Factory revisit Solid Snake for his MGS1 appearance since they now have better tech to tackle realistic faces.

>did they not sell well?

Isn't that the case with Revoltech sometimes? Opinions seem divided with Revoltech figures and I never saw them as sales juggernauts but taking on interesting IP's for figure creation. Mandarake has a ton sitting around, just wish stuff like Layton gets a Legacy release.

If anything I always found Tigrex to be easy to find post release (all color variants/subspecies). A little surprised on Snake which is funny since my local sellers always sell him at $80 a pop.

>>5705751

>>
>>5705780
Comic/import shops here probably acknowledge the property which explains the cost but also imports in general are marked higher there versus online.

Figma and Revoltech are always marked much higher there than online though they have Legacy of Revoltech FoTNS and EVAs sitting on shelf's for months. Plus the occasional surprise comes when I saw a Grey Fox Revolmini sitting around for $40 though the box was beat to hell.
>>
>>5705798
>Plus the occasional surprise comes when I saw a Grey Fox Revolmini sitting around for $40 though the box was beat to hell.

Lucky. Not only do I not have any shops where I live out in the middle of nowhere, I can't find a Greyfox online for anything less than over 2x that price. Hoping he gets Legacy'd.
>>
>>5705780
Considering they are charging extra for own profit, isn't that normal?

What's truly insane are the prize figures I see in stores here in Toronto. On import sites or amazon Japan each goes for like 2000 yen or under that...I see them for 60-80 dollars WTF what a ripoff.
>>
>>5705808
It's normal but it's like swallowing a large pill for something you can get immediately or saving the extra cash online.

For instance I only visit here on occasion to check out stuff on-hand and maybe if its an exclusive they somehow got in stock and the price difference shipped online versus in-store isn't that high.

>>
>>5707212
Maybe Konami or whoever would consider revisiting Revoltech for releases someday. Raiden was like a glimpse into a fantastic line of figures.
>>
>>5707222

Given Venom Snake was made after Raiden was, and was just as good, you'd suspect they're still doing business with the company, right?

Unless Venom sold like pure shit or something because his design was so drastically different from every other Snake due to Kojima going full Keiferface.
>>
>>5707227
Sales matter but that data belongs to the company so they must consider if it's a venture worth going after again.

If MGR2 gets a reveal I can feel that we would see a Vulcanlog figure coming down for release at some point. Same thing with PAK pumping out all those MGS figures, especially Quiet who somehow destroyed my expectations after seeing a crazy Mandarake listing for her. I think she managed to be more expensive than the 1/1 scale Bionic Arm for Venom Snake which ran at 30k for one store.
>>
>>5707227
I don't think venom sold too well, but it might have had to do with how expensive the figure was in the first place. He was pretty up there, considering how revoltechs are usually fairly cheaper than similar stuff. Also, I thought V was one of the better games in the series, but I don't think it was well received among other fans.
>>
>>5707255
Not to veer off topic too much but if it wasn't for the trailers giving off such a distinct vibe about what to expect from the game then maybe reception would be a little different. Barring the loss of the battle at the island for Sally (which still makes me want to believe a Revoltech Metal Gear Rex, Ray, and Sally can happen) and some of the cut content I read about, mechanically I loved V. I just wish I didn't have to revisit so many outposts with a random litter of soldiers and the side-ops being headache inducing to complete 100% unless you approach each with wildly different loadouts and tactics.
>>
>>5707255
>>5707282

Most peoples complaints seem to be the story got worse the further in you got. Which makes sense, since Kojima didn't finish the game because of Konami being a bunch of fuckwits. Huge tracts of unused dialog have been found for Snake, and the story just kind of peters out and blueballed everyone when it should've ended with an explosive finale with Lil' Liquid, Volgin, Mantis, etc.
>>
>>5707282
>>5707290
Story-wise, I went in expecting the usual retarded kojima yarn, and that's about what I got. Mechanically, it easily felt like the best of the series, so I was pretty satisfied there too. And I mean, I get your complaints, but that's not even what I meant. I remember around the time of his release there was a big thread with people who were salty about the ending "twist", and had buyer's remorse about the toy because not mah snake.

I didn't get him until he went on sale, mostly because he was expensive and I wasn't sold on his articulation, but he ended up being really fun despite his flaws. It'd be a shame if we didn't get a quiet because people got butthurt about a fairly obvious twist, but one figure for each game is sort of the norm.
>>
>>5707333
>I remember around the time of his release there was a big thread with people who were salty about the ending "twist", and had buyer's remorse about the toy because not mah snake.

Meh, given he was made to look like Snake (given in GZ it is Snake, and he still has Keiferface there), he technically is a Snake figure. But yeah I could see why people would be mad about that.

Personally I treat'em as Big Boss and not Medic Boss, since again, same face and all that.

I guess it is fine for how small it is, but I still hate how it sticks so far from the forehead.

And I don't get all the hate around the figma honestly, mine came out okay. The beard's a little underwhelming, but it's certainly not that noticeable unless you're really up close.
>>
>>5707446

He just has a really...Mushy. Looking face. He needed hard edges, and instead he looks like someones prettyboy version of Snake. The hilariously bad beard paint doesn't help either.

Solid Snake seems cursed to only have bad figures other than this revomini, who is too small to have truly awesome detail.
>>
>>5707426
>thinking on dropping $80 on figma Snake

Honestly I was hoping the price would somehow drop a little post release.

I think they knew how bad the face was going to come out for the final release so they added in other points like his articulation and even then my Snake and others reported how floppy his torso joint became due to the decision to make his torso extendable for specific poses. $80 feels like overpaying when you consider possible issues to come up not to mention his face. Though a little adjustment on his eyes and using the bandana to hide the face sculpt does help.

Overall he's really articulated which is funny how Leonidas was the first realistic figma they got right but is a bit limited in certain ranges of articulation (no pop-out 2.0 arms for dynamic sword swipes and whatnot and limited ab crunch.)

>>5707446
The prototype face probably set an impression and then everyone saw the final release pics. I'm slightly more bothered how much black paint got all over the angry clinching face's teeth and somehow he has more beard than the default face.
>>
>>5707459

Maybe we'll get a 2.0 down the road at some point? I'm probably gonna say fuck it and grab the revomini. Gonna be bummed he won't fit in with my Venom, but I guess thats why he's called Big Boss?
>>
>>5707456
It's certainly nowhere near the quality of the promo shots, but I still believe it's the best Solid Snake figure out there. Just overall, he feels like the character, whereas the Mini is more a caricature.

As to whether or not he's worth the prices he's going for now, that really comes down to how big a fan of the series you are.

I'm really hoping someone puts out a 6 inch MGS1 Snake eventually, cause it is my favorite look of his. I grabbed the Mini just in case it's the only one, and it might continue to increase in value.

He's fun to mess around with Venom for sure.
>>
>>5707465
The new face printing tech can give them a reason to go for a MGS1 Snake to compliment MGS2 Snake.

The revolmini is a ton of fun if you know what limits it has. I recommend it if you can get it at a decent price. On the plus side the Revolmini's pistol can actually work for Figma Snake and not look totally out of scale. At least on hand for me.
>>
>>5707474
>>5707476

Yeah, I love the MGS1 look best. To me thats the iconic look. It's why I like the Venom Snake so much too, that suit has a lot of similarities to the MGS1 suit.
>>
>>5707495
I think that was the idea if it has that level of similarities. Must've lifted a few design notes and applied it to Venom's sneaking suit.
>>
>>5707500

Yeah, it's definitely possible Venom's suit was the precursor to the MGS1 suit in terms of timeline.

Looking good, looking good.

I think I'm just as excited for Black Magician as I were for Venom Snake and Ultron. I know people want the classic version but I have zero nostalgia for the series and I like this design way more.

I never played Yu-Gi-Oh or Pokemon...and I was in elementary school, in Japan, in the 90's...how did I manage that? I had enough friends...
>>
>>5710217
Maybe you didn't meet up people who played? Shit was popular in the US(or at least in the schools I attended) and you couldn't escape a classroom of one or two guys who had a deck ready to duel.

Only thing I'm not a fan of is hip joints for Yugi for some reason. If anything Dark Magician is looking great.
>>
>>5710280
I think we weren't allowed to bring stuff like that to school, so any dueling was done after school probably. Japanese schools are relatively strict. I hang with a different crowed I guess. Plus I was into Digimon and SD Gundams.

Robot style joint placement of the hips do look odd, but I think posing in hand they wont be too bad.

The yellow part of Yugi's hair is way to flat, but other than that the figure looks better than I expected.
>>
What did they change about the joints with newer releases? I only have some older Revoltechs like Yotsuba, Ultra Magnus, and Krauser and the joints are fine, though a bit stiff.

I also just ordered a Boba Fett on Manda that was listed as "Opened, unused, box damaged" so I'm assuming the box was just opened for some reason. I like the sculpt from what I've seen, Yamaguchi isn't the one who sculpted the Star Wars line, right?
>>
>>5711509

Basically just improved their stability/I think more teeth in the ratchets for a better range of "stop" points?
>>
>>5707446

I'm actually surprised at how bad the face was for mine... Especially since I'm super happy with the figma Guts figures I got. The sucky part is that the grimacing angry face on my figma Snake is the one that turned out bad, while his normal calm face is the one that turned out alright. I really wanted it for the grimacing face.

That being said, yes, I think there is a curse on Solid Snake. Raiden turned out great, then for no fucking reason we got mini revo for Gray Fox and Solid Snake... Then somehow we got a full sized Venom Snake who also turned out well.

That's correct. He didn't sculpt them, but he did the placement of the joints to make sure they are just as poseable as his own figures. That*s what he's doing for all Vulcanlog now (besides V Snake) actually.

The ones sold like that were the handpicked better joints so they aren't that bad. Still the old 3 piece type 6mm though.

The price is ridiculous, hoping they don't sell well and end up discounted. Also the articulation looks really weak, almost no forward movement in the legs it seems, and the torso's bound to be heavily restricted because of that vest.

I want to say I'd like a Revo soldier of some sort, but we all know how that ended up last time.

I looked into it briefly, and might get that one as well, but I'm thinking of getting the Revoltech first. I know the cape is bulky and jointed and everyone seems to have it, but for some reason I think it looks cool. I guess I want opinions on it from people who own it before I take the plunge.

How's the articulation on the kit?

They are on a t joint but he has more articulation than the kit. The kit from what i saw on a review can only move his legs out a tiny bit. But arms, knees and head are all gr8. You can get some pretty dynamic poses for being a c3po.
>>
>>5713261
I remember debating getting that one after missing out on the original when it was cheap, but I ended up getting the shitty PAK that came with the game.

I swear I saw him for like 8k yen on Mandy the other day. Crazy.

Last I saw the white Raiden's were around $50-60 on Amazon/eBay. I got mine for around $61 IIRC.

They are made of 3 separate pieces, where as the later 6mm are made of 2 pieces, the are structurally different designs.

I don*t think Konami controls that, it's up to the toy companies to ask Konami's permission to release the figures they want to make. Unless Konami puts a stop to them which I doubt they do.
>>
>>5713774
>I don*t think Konami controls that

It makes little sense to me that a company wouldn't order a certain size/whatever of a figure be made if they're going to give out the license at all.
>>
>>5713782
I honestly don't think most license holders give a damn about things like that. They got asked for the rights, got paid for them, and probably got the chance to thumbs up/thumbs down the end result. I'm sure there are a few collectors at konami, but I guarantee the people actually in charge of rights probably doesn't make much of a distinction between figmas, revoltechs, and posters of big boss, much less action figure scales.
>>
>>5713794
Game companies probably consider merchandising to be superfluous extra income at best that they make little real money from. WoW had little extra stuff when it was making money off the subscription fees- MMOs generally have little merch when they make money off digital sales. Likewise, the small pittance Nintendo gets off figures is probably nothing to them(they have enough money in reserve that they could lose money for 10 years and still stay in business) that it's not a thing they care about. They barely sold merch before, and even now they act like it's barely a concern to license it out.

It's mostly failures like Sega that try to sell other stuff, when their games are horrible.

>>
>>5715105
You can't expect stores to get imports and not charge more than the regular online front. My comic and import shops have similar prices.

Though it only works for those who don't know anything about AmiAmi or Hobbylink Japan and/or prefer to pick up the figure in person and inspect it themselves. I saw a guy pick up a Venom Snake for $80+tax at my local comic place.
>>
>>5715166
But this mark up is bullshit because my hobby store buys in bulk from retailers.
>>
>>5715181
Same thing with my places. I'll caution a guess that there is a customer base who are willing to buy at those prices thinking you can't get imports any easier than that. Don't get me wrong that price is ludicrous for a figure like that but if they can move it then they are willing to mark it up. Though they have to also realize that's a pretty nutty price and only one or two people will just buy it while they sit on the rest they bought in bulk.

Hopefully they mark it down at some point unless they plan to keep it eternally at $100+

I'd say I'm happy with him, with a couple asterisks. His torso really is as freakishly long as it looks, so if you ever have him just standing straight up he's gonna look weird. He looks great doing action poses though, and he's got more than enough range to pull them off. His ankles have some excessive molding which makes him a little hard to stand because he can't quite tilt forward enough though. That doesn't really bother me because he's practically made for a stand. I like him ten times more than the black series, but if either of the mafex ones end up being good he's probably getting sold.

Yeah no. Not gonna happen. That line has had repeated QC issues (fragility AND joints popping up super easy as hell), articulation issues (stupid engineering) and sculpt/paint issues. Mafex could have been great but holy shit did they drop the ball. Don't be shocked if it ends up having less range than the Black series and ends up with QC issues up the ass.

I actually like the Pat Lee inspired designs, and yeah they can't transform, but they're Revoltechs. They can be put into some cool poses that the actual transforming figures can't. I already have Magnus, but the joints are crappy and I wouldn't mind a new one.

Yeah, I always liked the Dreamwave comics. Those were Pat Lee, right? Or am I wrong?

I know many likes the humanoid Revoltechs (Vash, Raiden, Kinnikuman, Ed & Al, QB, piece of shit Dante Revo for some reason, etc) but if you're voting, please show some love to the Yamaguchi Robot Revos. There haven't been a new one since EVA-8+2 (Jan 2014) and they are all great and fun figures that don't have too much alternatives (or cheap).
Priority on the oldy super robots and non-EVA Gainax stuff for me.

BTW this voting site is great for seeing all the Revos, even shows the sculptors. I hope they keep something like this after the 20th.

>>
>>5716412
Considering many IDW artists were original DW artists who drew Transformers in "Pat Lee's" style, that makes sense.

However, there is some controversy on how much Pat Lee actually did draw and how much was others ghostdrawing under Lee's name.

When DW went balls up because of how much of a real life shit Pat Lee was, Hasbro took possession of much of the art and used it as their own. I think that's why it got handed over for use in the Revoltech versions.

I got the Revo Megs, he's actually pretty neat for a little guy.

Literally who

Also, Arthur from Capcom and Beats from JSR/SEGA. Thanks for all the dead characters that's 20 years too late. I don't understand Revo/Kaiyodo's game plan at all. I love Revo just like everyone here, and it's nice that unlike Figma or Figuarts, you never feel jewed by Kaiyodo, if a Revo figure does suck its never from the lack of trying, but their character selection is so crazy and out of bounds. Do they not need money? Feels like there's absolutely no rhyme or reason at all, other than MonHun being the mainstay in Revo line and the only "exclusive" for the line.
>>
>>5716772
An anon from the last thread did an explanation of Revoltech


>Kaiyodo in general doesn't really try marketing towards the same demographics as their competitors, because collector-focused articulated figures have always been more of a side business for them. The bulk of their business, even before Revoltech, came from capsule figures and products aimed at older audiences (miniature animal and plant replicas, etc.). That's the main reason we've gotten things like the Danboards, Rilakkuma and other mascots, and the Takeya line - rather than the usual "try to predict what will be popular and milk it before nerds move on to the next thing" strategy employed in this field, Kaiyodo instead tries to woo people who don't normally buy posable figures in the hopes of creating new buyers.

Kaiyodo makes all the money from Capsule figures. they grew so much as a company with Choco Egg figures.

Also WF makes some money for them? I have no clue how an event like that financially works, might be charity level for them.

Also, what you are pointing out is all Union Creative's selection. Different company different ideals. They distribute for other companies like Sentinel and I think their selection is closer to what gets figmas.

Okay I tried voting. Just follow @kaiyodo_PR and click the Revos you want and hit the tweet tab on the window that appears.

Is there any way to tell who is winning?

Need a new-joints Melona so fucking badly, and I'm curious as to who exactly is winning.
>>
>>5717129
No, I'm voting Mr Incredible and Danbo.
>>
>>5717234
The number that is next to the tweet when you vote is the total so far...? I don't know how twitter works. Or search the Revo*s number.
>>
How are the original Revoltech evas? The very first ones
>>
quick question
do you think there is any chance the EVA EVO unit 05 will be released as a legacy? Or is the evangelion line oficially dead?
>>
>>5718006

Same chance as anyone else with this poll. You want it, you better vote for it, and hope others do too.
>>
>>5716722
Actually there has been a limited yamaguchi release of eva unit 04 this year.
It's a pretty cool figure but sadly it was a Universal Studios Japan / Evastore limited, glad I got it.
>>
>>5718020
I just asked despite the poll since it's weird that it's the only one of its line that didn't get a legacy... how unfair, since it's the priciest one.
>>
>>5718033
I forgot about it, and I got it too haha. Still barely anything new
>>
>>5718080
Because 05 is a shitty unit that no one wants. Only top sellers got Legacy release. EVO body 08 didn't get one either despite the chance of fixing the paint problem. But they might do all the 3rd movie ones in a batch someday.
>>
>Megatron
>Starscream
>Jason Voorhees
>Melona

Did I do good /toy/?
>>
>>5718251
Eh, I mean, it's nice because it's very different and adds variety to the line but yeah it was poorly executed indeed, especially the fact that it's out of scale. Guess I'll just settle for the 077 one, since I don't really feel like spending 80+ bucks on the slightly-less-sucky one.
Also, can the 08 be considered an EVO? It's from 3.33 and the box does not say evo and does not have angel parts and so on (Not that there would even be a need for a legacy of any of the 3.33 ones)
>>
>>5718266
>Melona

Yes, yes you did Anon.
>>
Want to vote but fuck twitter. Going through the list was cool though. Would've probably voted the Elric Brothers, Echidna and maybe the turtles.
>>
>>5718362

If I had twitter I'd vote the Raoh/Kokuoh 2 pack. So expensive these days
>>
>>5718281
Did it not? Anyways the same body so it should be. Makes it easier to distinguish than alpha and beta.

EVA-13 is harder to get so rerelease would be nice.
>>
>>5718266
So does it not lock up (vote tab disappears) after 4 votes for you? I can vote again if I erase my History, but then I can go more than 5 it seems. I got to keep track myself but it seems something is broken.
>>
>>5718266
Also that is PW Snake for sure.

>>
>>5718409
I voted for the 5 of them and the option to vote disappeared afterwards. I'll check again tomorrow and see if it'll allow me to choose 5 again.
>>5718412
Yeah, the picture is of PW Snake, but the text reads Ground Zeroes, so who knows. I figured why not since I haven't gotten around to picking up either.
>>
>>5718573
If not for the bad hand connector pieces, I would have kept my copy. He was one of my first Revo figures along with Raiden.
>>
>>5718575
Both are up on Mandarake for decent prices. PW at 3500 and GZ at 5000
>>
>>5718583
Nice, I didn't see them last time I was on there. I just ordered aa Boba Fett and a few figmas so hopefully they're still up next time I can order stuff.
>>
>>5718573
And re-release it in the right colors.

Which one?

Neither, you want pic related. Unless you're specifically looking for a mini-Venom for some reason, rather than one that scales with a bunch of other figures.
>>
>>5718575
It is PW version for where it is in the release order. And certain exclusives are not included in the list.

That said I think I saw Annelotte? Everyone should vote for her since she is a great figure to have, I could use more.
>>
How the hell do you vote? I can't read moon
>>
>>5718661

Yeah, Annelotte is there but I didn't see Branwen or Aldora.

Either way, please, vote for Melona and Annelotte if you can.
>>
>>5717508
They're okay. The MP Evas are the shining stars of the bunch.
>>
>>5718658
Already got it. I'm the anon who posted all those mini Snake photos earlier and I'm really thinking of getting a Venom to go with him, cause you know, I hate money.
>>
>>5718668

The Venom's aren't that expensive I think. Around $40-50 I think. Only reason Snake and Cyborg are so expensive is due to better games/nostalgia.
>>
>>5718677
I meant "hate money" in the fact that I have an impulse to keep buying things. Especially since I have a shit-load of stuff on preorder that's dropping next month. Might have to cancel some of it if I get one. I actually got Solid for a pretty good price (2500 yen) on Mandarake.
>>
>>5718681

Nice. But yeah better to manage your money. Right now I'm mulling over like 10 different things and can afford at most, like, 2 of them (and thats only because those 2 cost as much together as 1 of the other things).
>>
>>5718687
I'll probably talk myself out of it by the end of the week. Really don't need to get sucked back into that scale atm.
>>
>>5718662
>>5716841
It's pretty simple with being able to click the photos to vote.
>>
>>5718362
>>5718367
I'm pretty sure posting a tweet is not part of the voting process and is purely optional, and mostly if you want to take part in their prize lottery.
>>
>>5718715
No tweeting is exactly how you vote and is the only option.
>>
>>5718665
Aldora is there. New joints wont fix her much though since she use many 4mm joints while having a giant weapon. But yeah all of QB needs Legacy.
>>
>no Grey Fox vote
Damn


Anyone have a Gray Fox Box theyre willing to sell? Might just plunge on a loose one
>>
>>5718745
There's one on Mandarake for 6k, search "Kaiyodo cyborg"
>>
How much can I get if I were to sell my revolmini Solid Snake and Cyborg Ninja both complete in box? I gave the line a shot, but I don't think I'm a fan of the scale.
>>
>>5718759
Probably like $100-150, that is if they're in good condition.
>>
>>5718769
Wow, did the price jump that much? I only paid around $35 for each of them. And yeah, they're practically new. Thanks for the info, anon. Brb eBay
>>
>>5718773
I mean yeah, they're arguably the best figures of popular characters that don't have a lot of figures in the first place. Add onto the fact that they're almost 2 years old and discontinued.
>>
>>5718778
I'm sure many have had this complaint as well, but it really is a shame we never got those two as full-sized Revoltechs.
>tfw no epic Raiden vs Cyborg Ninja battle pictures
>>
>>5718784
Yeah if we ever get a full size MGS1 Snake, I'm probably selling my figma.
>>
>>5718784
>tfw no other MGR revoltechs for literal Cyborg Ninjas vs. the original Cyborg Ninja and Raiden
>>

So 2017 and 2018 looks alright. 2016 is 15th anniversary for MGS2.

Props to you, I couldn't bring myself to get the figma because of the face.
>>5718791
Fuck this gay Earth.

None that I know of. Maybe we'll get lucky and get a nice MGS3 Naked Snake because of that Pachinko machine coming out... Ugh.
>>
>>5718799
Thanks, anon. I'm not so well-versed when it comes to the release dates of things.
>>
>>5718739

Fuck she's there too? I hope she gets a Legacy just to get her to an affordable price.
>>
>>5718802
>Maybe we'll get lucky and get a nice MGS3 Naked Snake

I wish. You'd figure each game's Snake would get a version, as well as a Soldier and maybe a boss or two. I mean, that'd make sense to me if I were making a figure series.
>>
>>5718804
Nor am I. Just use wikipedia.

>>5718802
Ughhh pachinko. Fucking pachinko, just get rid of it all. All they do are ruin lives and fund North Korea.

>Ughhh pachinko. Fucking pachinko, just get rid of it all. All they do are ruin lives and fund North Korea.

True. It's doubly bullshit when companies tease "NEW GAME OF X SERIES" and then it turns out it's a fucking pachinko machine.
>>
>>5718825
>maybe a boss or two.
Yeah right? video game playing group and figure buying group must not overlap much because there is a strong lack of action figures. US does a fair bit but they seem to fail in Japan, like D-arts.

Ignoring PA and PAK, Revoltechs have the most game characters I think.

I'm still getting a good laugh whenever I see teaser announcements for those things and the bomb drops when it's a Pachinko trailer. Berserk was okay but the DMC 4 one and the Fox Engine MGS3 was like a kick in the ass.
>>
>>5718836

It's a crime we didn't get a Sam or Armstrong for Raiden, or a The Boss and Volgin, or Flaming Undead Grenademan Volgin, or...

The only revo line I can think of with good bad guy rep is the FotNS one. All the major ones get represented, even fucking Raoh's horse got a figure.

Probably because they are exclusive releases for the artbooks, so I don't think they'd be eligible for re-release.
>>
>>5718883

So was Annelotte though.
>>
>>5718883
Only Branwen got shafted for the book exclusives it seems. Uniform Yoko made it too.
Some other exclusives like King Gainer XAN, MuvLuv recolors, various black versions, and IM Mark 4 are not there either.
>>
Just noticed Ultra Magnus isn't available for voting. Kind of a bummer. Sorry, White Optimus.
>>
Is echidna up for voting? I don't have a twitter but I may just make one for her or menace.
>>
>>5718927

Yes even 2P colors.

>>5718910
I think all Friend Shop exclusive alt colors are not included, along with magazine order exclusives.
>>
>>5718857
Topkek

>>5718932

But no menace eh? Ah well, I'm going to join twitter so I can get a better echidna.
>>
>>5718932
>I think all Friend Shop exclusive alt colors are not included, along with magazine order exclusives.
Yeah, seems like it. I just found that I can still find plenty of Ultra Magnus's for cheap, no more than $30 or so. I wonder if there's any bootlegs floating around? Seems kind of cheap for a so-called exclusive. Especially when considering how expensive the other Transformers Revoltechs are.
>>
>>5718935
>But no menace
WHAT?

What's going on does all the pictures not load properly or are you guys stupid or something.
>>
>>5718939
No one wants a white Optimus. I'm sure only ones that appealed to the dumb masses got bootleg Revos and not minor stuff.
>>
>>5718943

Excuse me for not being able to read nip, I'm trying to find out how to find the voting.
>>
>>5718927

Throw one to Melona too if you can! You get 5 choices, use'em.
>>
>>5718948

Ultra Magnus (the original toy) was actually just a white Optimus in a mech suit. So sometimes, despite the character of Ultra Magnus not being a white Optimus in a mech suit, Ultra Magnus is made as just a white Optimus recolor.
>>
>>5718958
But they are pictures...never mind.
>>
>>5718961
Yeah but does he get out of the suit in robot mode much? I only see him as the white truck but for robot mode he is inside the carrier part all the time. So I thought demand for him is low.
>>
>>5718974

Nope, unless you count IDW comics, where Ultra Magnus is just a lil' guy in a mech suit named Minimus Ambus using the name of a (maybe) long dead guy because he can.
>>
>>5718974
In fiction, he only did that during the Dreamwave comics.

Hasbro did a bunch of white OP repaints as UM around that time, too.
>>
>>5718974
Yeah, makes sense. The demand must be pretty low. Ah well, if there's nothing to be concerned about when it comes to bootlegs, I'll fearlessly place an order. Thank you.

I tried voting again for the same figures, but Twitter won't let me post them because it says something along the lines of "you've already posted this" or something.
>>
>>5718980
>Minimus Ambus
Huh interesting. I guess it's the Orion Pax equivalent for him.
>>
>>5718991
Yeah you can't vote twice for the same figure. You can a day later. You can vote up to 5 figures per day so might as well.
>>
>>5718994

Nah, the real Magnus was said to have died (no confirmation though) in IDW continuity, Ambus took his name to carry on his legacy.
>>
>>5718996
Yeah, it says I tweeted my votes 6 hours ago so that may be why. I just figured I'd try since the option to vote came up again on the Revoltech 10 site. I'll try again tomorrow.

If anyone can throw in a vote for Megatron, it's be appreciated. I got you Melona bros.
>>
>>5719001

I so feel like voting for Jason will be a waste, but I can't help it.

So did Revo actually announce anything for their anniversary or not?
>>
>>5719607

Read the whole thread. You can vote on their site for it, select 5 figures each day, at the end they're gonna tally the votes and the figures with the most get Legacy releases.

Now go vote for Melona, Annelotte, Aldora, Ed, and Al so we can all get those hard to get tittymonsters with new joints and the FMA mains without having to pay almost $200 per figure.
>>
>>5716249

How do you vote? Just click on the picture and do the tweet?
