Where to buy
>GSC Online Shop - some figmas only are available through their online shop

>Hobby Search Japan - items stay in stock the longest
>Mandarake - search figma or フィグマ

Since there hasn't been an announcement at this point for a delay, does it actually mean we'll be getting Kiryu by the end of the month? I've never actually preordered a Figma, so this is all new to me, having to worry about delays.

Now I just need to hope the USPS doesn't decide to skullfuck the package from there to here, and that the seller packed it well.

Pay extra for registered mail, it is absolutely worth the money to make sure the package travels more securely.
>>
>>5728261

Well, it's too late for that, already paid and shipped. If it's fucked up in some way, eBay will cover it most likely, and if they don't, I deserve it for being a retard and will learn my lesson.
>>
>>5728264

It was from a US seller BTW. So at least I don't have to worry about international shit.

These are also going to be my very first figma's.
>>
>>5728252
Congrats anon. I recently got Ryuko and Satsuki myself.

They are really great figma, I love that their scissor blades can combine.
Take extra care when posing Satsuki, the antenna on her head are made from quite a hard plastic and are very delicate.
>>
>>5728293

Thanks. Again, just hoping it arrives alright. Never had a problem before buying shit off eBay except for an item that had a manufacturer defect (which wasn't the sellers fault obviously, it was a brand new product and he even refunded me part of the money, and let me keep it since I could fix the problem), but you know, theres always a first time for something to arrive fucked up if a seller packs shit wrong.

Can you use any other hands on the old style figmas that had the ball on the end of the hand? I have a saber casual, and one of the hands, the right fist, broke when I first tried to take it out if the hand tree.
>>
>>5728412
I've tried to sand down the hands on my Yuki, it's worked OK. that's about it. as much as the new-style hands look bad they're so much better for everything.
>>
>>5728427
My biggest concern is the others potentially breaking too. How good is OK?
>>
>>5728446
they slip in and out easily but I'm not sure the damage I'm doing to the plastic, basically.
>>
>>5728450
Have you or anyone else had any sort of frequency with these old hands breaking?
>>
>>5728450
Dip the hand tree into warm water for some time and try taking them out while warm. PVC turns soft with heat. Do the same when swapping hands but be more careful since breaking a peg inside a figure will turn out to be more of an ass pain. You can also sand the ball pegs some for easier swapping just not too much.
>>
>>5728252
fuck how.
I bought an used ryuko for 80... and it has some paint defects, im livid!
>>
>>5728381
it's not like you can't afford it though. Australians get paid more than US or Canadians. The current exchange rate pretty much makes it an equivalent price relative to each of the salaries from respective countries

for a low but respectable wage
$20hr aus job = $15 hour US job.

desu I can't wait to drop $1000 on 2 sets of the god hand

judging from how they've never re-released Golgo 13, I say your chances are slim.

Got lucky with Archer for 65 bucks at a toy convention.
Meanwhile Tohsaka isn't going beyond 25 bucks. I'm predicting since Archer's a rarity nowadays, she'll be set-sold with Shirou once he's released, with discount.

Wonder if they'll do Rider 2.0...

I was just adjusting the pose of mine today.
Glad i dropped the cash on it at release. I can only imagine the stupidly high prices for it now. Feel bad for you mang.

Are figmas considered collectibles by non anime fans.
I mean in ten years will certain figmas than are rare today still be expensive and sought after.

I would say so.

Maybe those Iron Man releases and other Marvel figmas. Otherwise specific anime series and the Figma release will probably will be still sought after. The constant Berserker Armor Guts posts show that.

I want to be excited by more Guyver, but the first one was a complete piece of shit - especially compared to their own pre-Figma Guyver line.

>>5729414

How is it a piece of shit compared to the old ones? I don't have the old ones but heard they are really fragile? is this true?

I have the figma but am interested in grabbing the larger, older beetle villain dudes because of how fucking cool they look.

I've heard about joint problems with the old bio-fighter line. Sadly I learned about it too late to get into it. But god damn was it glorious.
>>
>>5729529

so how is the figma shit compared to those? not troll question, I'm curious. I'm a Guyver fan but when those first ones came along, I was in no financial position to buy them, I was still a kid.
>>
>>5729604
Problem with many of the older figs are joint fragility.

The Figma is more durable, but the sculpt is mushy shit, breasts are missing paint, and the paint is really sloppy. The knees also are shit because they are not double jointed, so there is no kneecaps.
I love Guyver, but the Figma is mediocre as fuck. I sold mine the week I got it.
>>
>>5729618
Ignore this anon. He's exaggerating its problems.

The problem with the Guyver figma is that the test pics looked amazing, the head was the most on-point sculpt yet seen in a figma. And the production version was sadly nowhere near that level due to whatever reason. Which was very very sad.

The paint isn't sloppy, the only "mushy" part of the sculpt is the head, like I said, and who the FUCK expects double jointed knees on a Figma? GSC don't work that way.

The paint is fine, on par with most figma. Again, anons are just butthurt that it isn't the glorious shining god they saw in the promo pics.

It's still a solid Figma and definitely worth buying.
>>
>>5729633
Here's an example of the head that was promo'd on the left vs what we got on the right. As you can see it was a big downgrade.

My guess is some chucklefuck fucked the head sculpt during galvanization.

>>
>>5729633
The black paint washing is very much sloppy as hell, dude. It doesn't need to match the promos but get some damn standards.
And most Figmas don't have paint washes, either. In terms of paint it's definitely weaker in comparison to the average release, as MF can't do washes for a damn.

And no, you idiot. I wasn't expecting the figure to have double jointed knees, I was just merely pointing out that one of the Figmas' problems (especially in comparison to the older MF releases) is because it only uses singular design, which doesn't work for characters with obvious kneecaps. Guyver isn't the only character who suffers from the joint design.

The Figma has a lot of issues (forgetting to mention the size and proportion of the head as well). It is not a bad figure but it has many notable problems.

Funny thing being that will probably sit there for months on end. No one sane person who's new into collecting figures will see that as justified.

Whoever is doing the pricing at Book Off is probably basing it off how popular that figma is rather than being reasonable for a physical storefront to sell imports.

not really, she's got a good pair in her human form (compared to the other girls in the manga, who have smaller breasts, and then the instances where you can see them naked around the 32 volumes are really scarce), which it's translated as big crystal titties in guyver armor form when she shoots the mega smasher
>Kinda want the figure but I dunno.
me too, but i will wait until she's released and pics start appearing, considering the color change problem with the guyver I figma, i'll wait to see if it happened to hers too
if you are going to get the pink version, expect the figure to be more bright than the official promo pics show.
i hope they don't cancel guyver III if she sold like shit.

Honestly she doesn't looks bad, true that she need a better ass sculpt, but I'm a little upset that she'll only have 2 faces and a few accessories, I don't care for the helmet, I would have prefer that it was a baby Metroid instead

>>5731019
It seems like there won't be a GSC bonus or a DX version, as with the ALBW Link

>>5731035
This is why, even if she didn't have a glorious datass, it will be worth pick her up for the head swapping with my Arise Motoko figs; and as anon in >>5731085 pointed, is she end up coming with two complete heads, it will be worth to get her
I think the main issue will be that you maybe can't put her head on the previous Samus figma as the helmet head is on a balljoint (I'm not totally sure right now, I have my Samus figma stored away right now) and as anon >>5731169 mentions it

>>5731130

>and as anon in >>5731085 pointed, is she end up coming with two complete heads, it will be worth to get her
It's not a matter of if, it IS coming with 2 heads (3 if you want to count that helmet). Look carefully, her front hair piece for her pony tail is different from her front hair piece for the short hair. Plus with the 2 face plates (glare & smile), it is technically 2 separate heads altogether.

Oh, and question. It's my first figma, and I don't see any directions for how to swap her face plates. Where do I uh...Pull from I guess? Or does the hair hinge up somewhere or something?
>>
>>5731374
There's a seem line on her head where her fringe/bangs connect, you pull that part off (gently) and to remove the face underneath.
>>
>>5731374
Pull lightly on the hair, pull it out forward towards you, always be careful not to hamhands though

You could probably look up video reviews of her or other figmas to get the idea

Wow, i'm actually disappointed. I was initially excited for her and was planning on getting her, and after seeing the recent Makoto I had hopes for Samus, but it looks like they just dropped the ball. I think i'll skip it, maybe it'll shelfwarm and I'll pick it up. Or it will sell out immediately because there is such a limited pool for Metroid merch, either way, not that big of a loss.
>>
>>5731659

I think my biggest complaint is Zero Suit Samus looks like a generic waifu. It also doesn't help that Nintendo made her blonde from Super onward instead of going with the original NES Metroid's green hair. Just something to make her not like a generic supermodel in a S&M, anything. Some scars, something.

Can't wait for the Prime 3 suit though, closest we'll get to the Super suit, which is my favorite design.
>>
>>5731672
>I think my biggest complaint is Zero Suit Samus looks like a generic waifu.
My biggest complaint is the figure itself is mediocre from an engineering sculpt perspective and it has nothing to do with the design. The awkward as fuck looking hips, diaphragm only joint, probably no ass technology and two faces nearly identical.

Also the shading on the face will probably be a nightmare since Max Factory has never once delivered consistent shading. Sure they have happy accidents like the Giant Warrior, Pyramid Head or Bubble Nurse but it's still not consistent, just those designs worked well with random variation.

Compared to Motoko it's a joke engineering wise and sculpt wise.
>>
>>5731429
still mad that Anchovy was a figfix instead of a proper figma.
>>
>>5731689
I wouldn't say I'm disappointed. Certainly good enough, but I'm not particularly wowed. It seems like an old sculpt that's just finally being released, much like the Bruce Lee.

>>5731820

Dude, just buy it. She's cheap enough-Shit, you can even get her off Amazon for $56, probably could get it for less even if you wanted to import.

Don't be a pussy, if the people around you can't accept a fucking plastic statue, they're not worth shit anyway. It's not like you're walking around in some faggoty fursuit or displaying a Hitler poster and heil-ing it every time you walk by.
>>
>>5731820
>she's way too lewd for me
lol gey
>>
>>5731702
>It seems like an old sculpt that's just finally being released, much like the Bruce Lee.
Thing is Bruce Lee got shown off then shelved for a while. The first Samus (in her suit) was released July 2012, figma Lady was released July 2013. Are you expecting me to believe they had a secret prototype sitting around since 2012 that couldn't even implement features that Lady had? By the way Lady was shown much earlier than her release date too.

I don't think it's an old sculpt, just a lazy one. Maybe because Nintendo forced them to do it in order to avoid lewd stuff or whatever. Or maybe because they figure it'd sell no matter what. The lack of a second torso joint goes back REALLY far though, it's a pretty standard feature on the line for a long time.
>>
>>5731990
>Or maybe because they figure it'd sell no matter what.

This.
>>
>>5731990
I guess you're right about it not being old, but even still, plenty of figures have been recently released with one torso joint. And if they added one in at the waist, it would probably kill the look. There's no seams in the design or belt to hid it.
>>
>>5731998

I'd rather have visible seams and more articulation than nothing and less.
>>
>>5732039
Well that's your view. Shouldn't be a surprise anyway, doesn't seem like they've ever put in a waist joint if the design didn't have some way to hide it.

Ryuko and Berzerker Armor Guts' prices say otherwise.

Ryuko was very much available and shelfwarmed in some shops, and Berserker Guts was an SP-Figma, which are exceptions.
>>
>>5732231
Wasn't that Guts a special edition only made to be paired for the manga?

Ryuko stuck around for some time before her sudden jump in price once she started to sell out.Guyver there will probably stick around as well.

.... Huh. I must have brain-farted. I coulda sworn I read the preorder window opened and closed in January. GUESS NOT. Thanks. Maybe I read "June" as "Jan"??? Whatever.

So am I literally buying the hype? I notice every time I buy an eHobby exclusive Transformer brand new, they get discounted later and I feel like a dope. I gotta catch the patterns.
Guyver I & III are the most popular. Isn't this Guyver II a new character? Wasn't Guyver II originally just a brief appearance of a defective unit with asymetrical face, and wasn't female?

>>5728244
Eh. It costs what it costs. I guess if I had a budget I'd be more reactive, but I've just got a vague sense that I should be more selective about what I really want.
If I were smart I'd drastically cut down to almost nothing. The Happening is coming, and money is the least of the problems I should address, but every bit helps.

>Wasn't Guyver II originally just a brief appearance of a defective unit with asymetrical face, and wasn't female?
original died because the thing on the forehead was damaged and guyver I just punched the thing out of the body, but then like 20 volumes later they reveal that the bad guys recovered the remains of the armor and managed to repair it, they were going to keep doing tests and shit to see if they can create artificial guyver armors for themselves, but then it was stolen by a girl called valkyria, who supposedly is the original guyver II's stepsister
>>
>>5731004
So is this helmet and the hair a gsc exclusive? Amiami just lists the figure and base.
>>
>>5732632
I guess it also won't come with the gun or alternate face parts! They didn't list those either!

Don't be an idiot. They didn't mention it being
exclusive on the GSC page, and why would amiami have pictures of shit that wouldn't be included?
>>
>>5731003
It seems like she can't even bring her leg fully forward. There's no floating crotchpiece, so her thigh sculpt will scrape against her waist.

I PO'd on amiami before realizing this, MISTAKES HAVE BEEN MADE fuck
>>
>>5732632
Yes, they are exclusive. Pre-order them from GSO Shop for 6480 yen.

>>
>>5732639
Jesus fucking christ, you people are now just looking for reasons to hate it. The plastic of the leg and crotch always rubs together, and it will obviously be able to move forward more, cause the plastic is soft.

If you're really that upset about it, just email amiami, they'll cancel. Just hope they don't ban you in the process
>>
>>5732638
I mean, they included the original samus figure, so i guess they must include it!
Don't be a shit head, man. There have been times when figmas have come out where they included props that didn't come with the figures. Remember the initial confusion when they released Alice and we were all wondering if she came with the train pieces?
>>
>>5732639
If you read the past few post, >>5731028 said the Zero suit figma will have pull-out shoulder joints and hips so she can pose her legs fully forward similar to figuarts.

>>5732661
Use common sense and read, they specifically state on those photos that they're separately sold items. Amiami never includes photos of the figures with shop exclusive items either.

while the neck is conected to the body via a balljoint, the head is a separate piece to the neck, and is conected via a figma joint. as long as zero suit samus neck joint is conected to the heads (like thinke for example), headswapping it to the varia suit is possible.

The ending of Prime 2.
>>
>>5732827
any time you finish the old games moderately quick, and if you beat it really fast samus takes her varia suit off leaving her in either a swimsuit or underwear
in the prime games i remember that she takes off the helmet at the end of the first one
you can also see a pic of her without the helmet in metroid fusion
so basically you can see her doing that in a great deal of the franchise's games

Look at the head then look at the hands. It's off. Yeah it's a nice "woman wearing an armor suit" look, but it isn't seamless

>I don't get all the whiny faggots here.
Wanting her to have good articulation is a valid complaint.
Her crotch is going to limit her poseability so much, regardless of how soft the plastic is.
They did the same thing for Satsuki and her hip articulation is ass (pun intended)

>She looks pretty nice
That's your opinion, some of us think her face sculpt looks bad, and the paint could end up like Snake on the final release.

>why give her a helmet?
No idea. I think everyone would have preferred a baby metroid or a third faceplate.

>If this is the exclusive I won't miss it.
It's not exclusive. The standard release comes with the pistol, federation helmet, two faceplates, and an alternate head with short hair. And hands, obviously.
>>
>>5733098
Aside from the wings, which are supposed to be the same, what are you even talking about?
>>
>>5732833
It would never look seamless. Blame the suit design. All of them. The proportions were never right.
>>
>>5733118
Satsuki could pull off all the poses I'd expect her to just fine, especially for a figma, who have never been as highly articulated as other import lines. They always favor form over articulation.

As for the face sculpt, I agree, not looking particularly great, but I'm reserving judgement on that till release.

He claims "tons" of reused pieces but refuses to point out 5. He's wrong. He knows it. He just refuses to admit it.
>>
>>5733118
>some of us think her face sculpt looks bad
While I don't doubt some do. That's most PTSD from Snake as evidenced in your post just after it. The face as it is now is fine. And if they could do Leonidas justice I don't see how they would fuck a female. It's not even going for a realistic look.

For the metroid bit I agree. I'm glad I have the statue to pose her with the one that comes with it, but that shouldn't be a requirement. They went with strange accessory choices again. Hopefully the Prime Version comes with missiles instead of two set of generic beams. And the articulation is matter of preference. There was no way to giver some waist movement without looking intrusive. I don't have Satsuki, but my Ryūko wasn't too bad for posing so I assume ZSS will be about the same.

You're wrong. And the name calling (again) shows you don't have shit in the way of evidence for your claims.
In fact. I made it easy for you. You point out 5 pieces of the "tons" of reused pieces.
We'll wait.
>>
In fact, I'll be generous. I'll give you the hands. They're the same type of fingerless gloves that Kirito has, and we know GSC uses a lot of the hands over again for different figures.
So that leaves you with 4 things.
Have at it.
>>
Sup guize.

Is there any good place to buy spare parts for Figmas? Like, I have a Figma that's in perfect condition except one of its accessories is cracked. Is there any place I could go to to buy just that acessory, rather than having to buy the whole thing again if I want it to be complete?

If it's a new figure you can try to ask GSC/MF to give you a replacement part. That's pretty much all you can do.

That, and asking someone from MFC to sell you their part.
>>
>>5733221
MSRP is about 6500 yen, and even with amiami prices after shipping it'll be at least 65 which is what NA shops are listing it for.
>>
>>5733258
MSRP is 6000 yen, which is 56 USD, says so on their fuckin website. If you're really gonna get hung up on shipping costs, you shouldn't choose EMS all the time, or ship it with something else.

And don't even bring up NA shops prices, only retards order imports from them anyway.

What's with all the stupid paranoia about exclusive parts. Only a minority of figma have them.

And here's a hint - they NEVER show the bonus parts as part of any generic show display.

I'm just taking a guess. I rarely follow this stuff and I hear often on exclusives.
>>
>>5733383
>Only a minority of figma have them
eeeh it is but it's a slowly growing trend, a GSC shop exclusive here, a figfix preorder exclusive there (though I think they decided not to go ahead with this after nagato).

it kind of feels like preorder DLC for figs.

speaking of which, any of you got the old figma+nendoroid scarf and mittens winter set from WAAAAY back that you get from preordering during winter?
>>
>>5733412
>speaking of which, any of you got the old figma+nendoroid scarf and mittens winter set from WAAAAY back that you get from preordering during winter?

Not the recycled pieces guy, but I thought the purple haired girl? was another girly kirito variant when I first saw it.

Well its a newer thing they do with almost every new figma release. So eventually if the line continued it would not be weird if most figma had exclusive parts.

That being said most of the exclusive parts have not been as cool as a base like that. He probably doesn't even have much to him beside some extra hand parts so it would be odd for the base to be exclusive.

I could see Femto egg being a special/exlusive figure bonus though.

no and rerelease tends to crash scalping prices, which is good but they're likely to have a higher price point compared to the first issue depending on how long it's been since the first release

the only things i could find different besides color is the eyes on the manga version are a bit bigger and the control medal (the silver thing on the forehead) has a line in the middle, and...looks like the head is bigger? but that's probably because of the camera being closer compared to ova version's promo pic
not that the head differences would matter, since with the mass production the figures will lose detail

i think it's pretty equal, and that's without counting the hands, which zero suit will have more since it's a pair compared to the varia suit version

>>5734729
probably "niche" tax? compared to link, samus and her franchise are getting obscure, if it weren't for smash and the upcoming federation force game, she would be hanging with captain falcon and other forgotten nintendo franchises.

It's just some humidity that got in anon don't worry too much. Maybe a magic eraser will do the trick.

I heard some other guy had (probably) the same problem with his Angela's hair. He's saying it's paint but I haven't seen it myself so.....
Try scratching it and see if it comes off

buy from another seller, amiami is cheaper, at least a bit.
>>
>>5737731
Yeah but then they stuff the boxes to make the shipping cost more.
>>
>>5737940
No, that's to stop you're packages getting crushed you fucking dumbass.
>>
>>5737995
They use way more space and paper than necessary.

Havn't really found a figma I want... Something that's a bishoujo and hides the joints well. Also doesn't look so plasticky.

Tryna decide whether I want the figma or one of these, Koto's model kit. Anybody have both who can compare them in terms of build and pose-ability and such?
>>
>>5738049
The koto kit looks like it uses a set of joints similar to the busou shinki and frame arms girls.

Kinda indelicate question but: how much do you guys make monthly and how much do you spent on figures?

I'm moving to the US soon and I'm trying to figure my shit out and how it'll impact on my collection
>>

Was doing volunteer work at FSU filing shit in the advising office but they're putting me on payroll and I'm going to get 10 bucks an hour for all that and future work as well. Probably going to bump up to 15 hours a week.
The rest of the year is going to cost about 800 bucks in terms of preorders. Need to cut down.

Probably not. but looks like she can do this. But I mean. Why not get a million and one buff figures.
>>
>>5738388
Yes, she most certainly can.

I just really want that visor/mask thing.
>>
>>5738388
>butt*

It's too late for me. If the face plate's the only reason you want her than get the kotobukiya. I don't have either, but I imagine the Fimga has better articulation and will scale better depending on what you have in your collection.

>zero suit Samus in top 5
Meh
>it's posable
Well there's another 60 bucks into my addiction.

>>5738311
after bills and other stuff I have about $300 to spend on non essentials, per month that is and I usually set aside about $100 exclusively for figs and kits.
>>
>>5738523
Looks more like trash.
>>
>>5738583

I do wish they used a body more like arise motoko, all the same.
