>>5756444
Next week considering it's pretty much the end of the month and he's scheduled or seen as a Late June release from AmiAmi's info on him.

Medicos twitter wrote that it's releasing on June 30.

Is that Koichi head a custom or does it come with someone?

>>5756522
Custom.

>>5756522
>>5756533
That would be cool if the new Rohan came with it.

Actually, I wonder if they would ever release individual headsculpts for WF or something. Just to cover specific expressions and such.

>>5756609
We only saw those with Kira with the Kosaku head and Giorno with the flowing GER head and they're just neutral expressions.

It just varies on who Medicos chooses for release. Okuyasu has that smiling expression head instead of the usual screaming angry face they do on most releases. Josuke's smiling head was locked behind WF Crazy Diamond and probably a few more I don't remember off the bat.

They know the source material well enough to reference accessories from small scenes but it seems to be a dartboard's chance on alternate expressions that aren't the norm of the neutral or angry screaming variety. It would be funny if Medicos goes there and release specific headsculpts as a sort of WF only deal if they have no other option to release on a figure similar to those WF only soundplates.

Yes! Finally managed to get a Kira 2nd. Now all that's left to do is wait.

>Monster Hunter

Nah, if Revoltech makes further efforts for more monsters and hunters then I'm happy. The sculptwork on the Rathalos hunter is one of my favorites.

If Medicos wants to take advantage of rarely used IP's then a Dorohedoro line should be ideal.

I'm still sort of understanding how Medicos works for IP choice for figures since Parasyte and Aijin tells me they pick more unusual character designs to make figures for. Same deal with Toyko Ghoul with the garish and dark designs they opt for for characters and the masks they wear next to their powers.

>>5758314

>>5758354

Shit should be an obvious next step but I'm still waiting but here we are with Tokyo Ghoul, Drifters, and Baoh.

>>5758355
It depends. Stuff like KQ3rd and WF Giorno still retain a high price tag whereas WF King Crimson sort of dropped off to a reasonable amount. Even WF Jolyne can be found for 4k if you wait long enough around Mandarake.

>new WF Joseph sells on y!auctions for 20k yen before shipping
For what purpose.

>>5758355
It varies widely. WF Giorno and WF Joseph are often ~10k yen, while WF Crazy Diamond is ~5-6k yen. Do you have a certain character in mind?

>>5758369

Alternatively here's a jungle link though you do have to consider that they charge an extra 5% from your order and I think shipping costs a little more.

However I've seen Mandarake listings for her hit 4k before so maybe wait on that chance.

Didn't know what you were referencing since it was a random example but I could see that as the next colorway. It might take some time before Medicos revisits Stone Ocean again.

Hi- I know it was asked in the last thread, but is there an updated SAS checklist?

>>5758409
If it makes you feel any better SBR outright shows that there are infinite parallel universes so there's probably a universe where Pucci lost and everyone is just fine. In fact Araki said SBR isn't even part of the reset universe from part 6.

>everyone assumes i don't like part VI because of universe reset
no. i don't like it because jolyne's a shit protag, there's more dio wank, more jotaro wank, a useless sheboon, a useless pile of moss, a stupid kid, and literally the weakest stand in the entire franchise.

weather report and anasui are fine though.

>>5759715
oh also
>cartoons are real and everyone is snails

>>5759715
as opposed to part 1: the most generic thing ever.
part 2: only 2 actually good characters and 1 good villian.
and part 3: jotaro wank.
also how can part 6 be jotaro wank if he all he does is job? and FF and Emporio are extremely important and do a lot of cool things during the story.

>>5759731
the entire plot is "stop jotaro because he's the only thing stopping my boyfriend dio's plan from working"

>>5759749
that's the plot only up till savage garden. and quickly proceeds into dios bone. please actually read the manga.

>>5759759
>part VI isn't 100% about pucci making dio's plan work
are you actually retarded or just a convincing actor?

>>5759803
the motivation for jolyene at the begining of the plot is to save jotaro. it wasn't like that for most of it, but pretending that it wasn't at all means you didn't read the manga or you're just retarded.

>>5759809
can you read? i didn't say "jolyne's motivation was to save jotaro". I said "the entire plot is to stop jotaro".

>>5759812
but it's not. he isn't even relevent after savage garden you stupid fucking idiot.

>>5759819
>he doesn't remember how jotaro helped the final battle
okay kid

>>5759828
>helping= jotaro wank.
so part 5 was polnaraff wank?

>>5759833
no, since all he did was fuck things up

>>5759828
it's funny how your brain works.
jotaro doing cool things against cmoon and made in heavan then dying after doing nothing for 95% of the part is not "jotaro wank".

>>5759840
bringing him back for the fourth part in a row is jotaro wank, guy.

>>5759844
you're so desperate now you're counting part 5 wow. now you're going to start crying Joseph or dio wank.

>>5759844
Man, they gotta stop this Koichi wank, they brought him back for for like a couple of chapters in part 5!

>>5759847
was jotaro in part five, yes or no? i'm not saying main character or even recurring, but was he in it at all?

With the use of my stand, 『 LOCOMOTIVE BREATH 』 I put this thread back on the rails!

>tfw 1 more month till Okuyasu 2nd
>Resale never

>>5759851
he was, but him showing up for a phone call in literally means nothing. I don't get why jotaro pissed you off but not Joseph or dio/diego

Post yfw Jobin is the main antagonist of JoJolion and we get a SAS of the best stand in part 8, Speed King

>>5759853
desu joseph was only in three parts and he was fairly different between them.

dio had the common courtesy to die and only be mentioned in later parts.

>Opens seemingly new Okuyasu from mandarake..

>notices stiff legs

1 second later detached left leg..
>nice

>>5759863
that's the biggest moving of goalposts I've ever seen. and the fact that you count a total of 4 pages from part 5 shows it. jotaro only actually played a role in 3 parts, just like Joseph. and don't try to pretend that dio and diego aren't the same character only slightly more developed. I really don't get why you picked a contrived reason to hate part 6. also bohemian rhapsody and heavy weather were some of the best arcs in the part.

>>5759856
There's so many stands I want from Part 8
I feel like I'm the only one who likes Love Love Deluxe though.
I hope wet get Nut King Call and Joshu

>>5759876
saying diego and dio are the same are like saying all char clones are char. yeah they're pretty much the same, but not entirely.

>>5759877
sas blind cutie pie when

>>5759854
I'm not surprised. You should see the /a/ general.

>>5759856
Eventually but design wise his stand is ugly as sin.

>>5759878
you're partly right but diego even shares a stand and back story with dio. also full frontal is my favorite char clone

I've checked Mandy but...
Does anyone know where to get a six hole base for SAS
or what to search for it.

>>5759731
I loved part 2.

1 and 3 I agree were kinda boring.

>>5760539
They only sell them at Wonfes.

>>5760327
Are you using Chrome's Translate function? It sometimes gets stuck on an infinite-translate for me too. I just close the tab and reopen the link. Try that if you haven't already done so.

I've never made a Medicos e-shop account, though I've bought from them via a proxy (the e-shop doesn't do international shipping, I believe).

Damn. Was hoping to avoid the hell that will be Mandarake after wonfes, but what can us non-japs do? Prices for exclusives and 6 stand bases (as the other poster is looking for) will be sky high as the mad dash ensues.

You should ask some of the people in the RD or SHF threads about proxies. They have to deal with p-bandai bullshit. If you do everything via SAL (item shipped to proxy, proxy ships to you) you'll save quite a bit of money.

Just ignore them and hopefully it sorts itself out. Manga discussion is fine but sometimes the thread goes into nothing but just story discussion or that terrible general thread in /a/

It's just going to be a bit on the slow end until White Snake and eventually Wonfest discussion.

>>5759876
I like part 6 jolyene is great, and pucci is such a terrible piece of shit person.
Truly they got the villain right when it can make a person hate the entire story because of his gay priest actions.

>>5756652
Honestly, I'd just love it if they did alternate head packs or something, maybe dividing it by part. Give Joseph a smug grin, Esidisi a crying head, what have you. The "one head neutral/one head screaming" combo works fine for stands, but it's probably my least favorite thing about human SASes.

Do you guys keep the boxes for your SAS?

I love my SAS collection but the boxes are way too big and I'm not even using them.

They really dont work that well and take up a lot of space.

I'm feeling bad about throwing them away but I need space

>>5762008
If there's any chance that you'll sell your SAS figures (especially the more expensive ones), consider keeping the box.

I don't bother holding onto most of the original boxes. The boxes are a bit weak, and I don't even receive the box for a lot of my SAS anyway. Also, there are other ways to store spare parts or safely transport the figures while moving.

I'm thinking of just using Tamashii Stage arms and Figma stand arms for my SAS needs. Does anyone know the diameters of the rods of those stand arms? I kind of want to know before I try jamming the friction clip of Notorious BIG's stand arm onto those when I get them.

Well, after like 4 months, AmiAmi is finally sending me a replacement base for my Crazy Diamond. But it's kind of a waste since I bought another CD a while ago.

But hey, free stand!

>>5762270
It's not that but the fact they seem to be a magnet for snapping in general. I'm super cautious when putting it into a figure nowadays because they always look like plastic twigs. The long ones for The World, Diver Down, and especially Johnathan is the worst.

Mine came through today. As a figure it's great, articulation is on point, arms have some great bend to them. All the other joints are pretty standard stuff. The GACT on the body is alright I guess. Honestly it's not aligned uniformly throughout, I guess that's asking a lot though.

>>5763093
pose them so pucci is wearing his fedora and their both trying to sell me bootleg dvds

>>5763093
Even looking at the printing in this larger-than-life photo, the GACT look really nice and crisp. Like you said, they're a little off center here and there, but the sculpted lines on the bands across his body look good. Thanks for posting this, it helped alleviate my concerns with the figure.

Woke up in the morning and checked again around 6:40 and Wamuu was already sold out, but to be honest with the dollar so weak 8,000 yen really isn't that great when you add in shipping as well

>>5763952
What I did when I was looking for a Kira 2nd (which I ended up just buying off YJA anyway) was use the phone app Web Alert, and have it sound an alarm any time the first figure listing changed.

I mean, it went off with every little update, but I didn't mind checking. Plus, it practically assured I'd never miss a good deal.

I predict:
* Baoh - Colored
* Rohan - Colored
* Toyohisa - Same grey proto as last show
* Gyro - Grey proto
* Wildcard random figure from some new series Medicos is trying to pick up but will probably never see the light of day, not at least for another year and a half anyway

Well that Rohan will probably be still around or come again on Mandy at some point but the new Rohan's accessories will probably relate only to the chapter he was in with Josuke. If anything the laughing head should be the alt but we have to wait and see.

I just recommend him based on how fashionable the outfit is with the dark colors with the pop of the light brown. The gold paint on the headband and button ties it together perfectly with the purple hair.

Accuracy to the series he's from or making the scale of the Toyko Ghoul group a little different than the JJBA group?

I think Medicos is working on their own rules per series figure.

>>5766407
Kira looks best in purple, even after the face change. White looks shit with watermelon hair.

>>5766490
For reference, Jonathan is 195cm/6'5" and Tsukiyama is 180cm/5'11" and Tsukiyama's fig is a hair taller.

Just medicos doing whatever they want with scale again.

>>5766490
>>5766888
It should also be noted that their heads are all very different sizes, so we can't even use a standard proportioning system.

I feel like they did at least one, but that's probably incorrect. What I'd really like to see is a pink Kira, but can I definitely see them changing to white once we get to Kosaku.

>>5766641
I dunno, I kinda like the white. Especially with the KQ 3rd head.

>>5766477

>>5765093
That list is probably about right.

I think Medicos is done with Tokyo Ghoul now, especially after the waste of plastic that was Tsukiyama.

That one probably wasn't received well.

They might just try another series, yeah.

New pose for my Kira and Killer Queen, didn't really have time to pose them when I first got them and only got around to it now.

>>5767102
I really like KQ's pose, but Kira looks a bit too static. Maybe try angling his left foot out a bit.

>>5767107
Bent it a bit forward and it does look better, thanks.

>>5767094
We're getting two more Tokyo Ghouls, anon.

>>5767593
I meant, beyond those three. No indication that they're continuing the line past that.

Tsukiyama was a flop, and the Statue Legends (both) are overpriced garbage.


The next two might do well, but still - I think Medicos might just drop Tokyo Ghoul.

I know a lot of people here wouldn't mind that, though.

>dropping ghouls means double the jojo
but in all seriousness I dont get why they chose parasyte or ghoul. I get they aren't that popular. but they haven't been around all that long.

Should I go for 3 figures at one store or 1 more expensive and apparently rarer figure at a different store on mandarake?

>>5768095
the rare one excuse if you actually want it, it will be more expensive down the line

>>5768083
Maybe they are testing the waters for ideas or figures. Shinichi was fun for all the accessories he came with plus having a migi to display with but just no double jointed elbows. Plus going for the manga design instead of the anime one is an interesting choice or possibly because of how simple it is in comparison.

Tokyo Ghoul works off the designs and the more unusual weapons/abilities the characters have but with the way Kaneki's kagune was handled with being such a static piece I'm a little let down. Shinichi's extended arm showed Medicos can do single joints to help articulate longer appendages but they didn't follow up.

Though I said it before Medicos seems to work into either properties with little to no figures or they like more unusual somewhat "body horror" sort of deals to be made into an SAS. Really the only non-JoJo figure that was a hit out of the park was Ajin/IBM and that was simple and without a crazy contrast of colors. The long limbs gives excellent range given he has standard SAS articulation (though I can never get him into a perfect slav squat). The bonus heads, detailed pistol, and tabbed or button base makes him a solid choice(never noted this often but the new base is a massive improvement over the standard)

Forgot to add, Toyohisa from Drifters is an interesting choice so I hope more detailed photos show up during WF. Hopefully it can meet the revoltech for articulation.

>>5768083
>they haven't been around that long
Parasyte the manga has been around for ages, and has quite a cult following in Japan. I remember reading it only because a (Japanese) friend of mine had recommended it to me

>>5768083
How much more Jojo will they do, though? They can't endlessly recycle different designs and colourways of characters.

They'd have to go to secondary characters or make updated versions of, like, part 3 SAS.

But in the end, they can't keep going forever.

Part 7 and then recolors. Part 8 and those get recolors. WF editions and Swarovski editions also.

Redoing older SAS's would be interesting if they mean to re-engineer articulation and sculpts and not just fix the heads and faces.

Though the biggest thing I want to see is Medicos going after alternate outfits for more characters and not just Rohan. Jolyne has a ton to work with.

>>5768531
They could go for a long fucking time with Jojo, especially at the rate they actually release stuff at.

2MB, 2212x1244px

>>5773157
>>5773172

I guess to start off the pistol is meant for a separate Ajin that the SAS comes with in the form of a head (the flat and open mouth head since it's a different character)

The bodies are similar so I guess Medicos banked on fans to buy 2 to have both Ajin's fight eachother.

Unfortunately I'm still searching for an appropriate Assault Rifle that scales to Ajin since the longer limbs allows for different gun poses because of the better range of movement they cover.

I have the manga on my backlog but as far as I know the one with the faceless head is often seen just using his bare hands whereas the flat or open head Ajin favors guns because of his human owner or user.

Personally I picked him up just because I fell in love with the basic design and how tall he ended up being. The sculptwork is on point also and I feel this is probably one of the better non-JoJo SAS's Medicos released next to Shinichi (even with the lack of double jointed elbows)

The only odd thing I hear about the manga was the changeover of authors in a short span of time but I still plan to read it since the Ajin designs really caught my eye.

I got a DIO Awake 2nd that came with the SAS Referece Book Act. 1 and I was thinking...

Would it be bad if I repainted him to have his original color scheme? I'd feel bad for tarnishing the LIMITED EDITION the box so indicates, but it's not even a color scheme from the Capcom fighter and I just don't remember seeing that color scheme.

Hell I even wanted to make a custom by adjusting the top to be shirtless, grab/sculpt/3D print a PB Dio head and paint the face black to make a Shadow DIO, but again, scared to tarnish the brand.

As to my knowledge for Awakened Dio it could be a case of Medicos making their own tweaks to the original colorway. They did the same with King Crimson Blue ver. which was based on the cover with Doppio but they swapped colors for his pinkish hue instead of the shade of green Araki used.

>>5774885
Someone recommended Vallejo paints for Medicos figures if you wanted to do a custom. Depending how you want to tackle it you could ask the customs general

The World 2nd is ideal considering the colors used on him. The World 3rd and The World 1st sort of sit around Dio 1st and Awakened Dio 1st's territory.

Only Part 3 is what you're familiar with and it is the most well known so people attach to that as general knowledge. Just keep reading and you come to appreciate the theme of the Joestar Descendants vs Dio Brando who has influence throughout the series even though his life ends at Part 3.

Yeah, don't do that unless you have no choice. They allow returns so long as it's in re-saleable condition. Since some brands don't have tape seals it means you could get stuck with some defective/missing part figure. It's happened to me numerous times.

That's not to say I haven't gotten brand spanking new figures from AmiAmi with problems but HLJ opens themselves up to being abused unless they choose to open up a figure and ensure it has no problems which they won't because it's too much extra work.

Still, sorry you had to deal with this shit. That's horrible.

I've browsed /co/ to see those threads but it seems more of an opposite choice for Medicos given stuff like Parasyte and Tokyo Ghoul. Kind of a shame this was the next surprise figure choice because character design wise RWBY isn't interesting and some of the animation I've seen is terrible.

>>5780306

I'm happy for Rooster Teeth but on the other hand, why?

>>5780438
I'm not really sure... The RWBY designs don't seem to lend themselves to the style of SAS, whether your a fan of the source material or not. Air brushing and paint aps don't look like they suit these character designs, and these outfits look like they would severely limit SAS articulation. Wouldn't these work better as Figma? The designs look pretty derivative of things like Madoka and Nanoha after all.

>>5780438
RWBY has made it big in Japan over the last year. The whole series got dubbed and aired over there, and I guess because of reverse weaboos and moefags it's pandering cliche designs struck it big.

>>5780406
The only two SAS listed on that screen shot are Ken and Juzo, so maybe the line will end with them.

That's a pretty juvenile way of thinking

>>5780454
>RWBY has made it big in Japan over the last year.

I'm shocked. The CG makes the new Berserk look good, and the concepts and designs are just pale copies of popular Japanese series. What would a Japanese person see in it? I thought they usually found weeaboo stuff off putting anyways. They certainly didn't seem to have an avatar following.

>>5780477
As is pretending that SAS belongs to Jojo, provoking people and then bitching about them misbehaving when they give you a retort.

Also how is it juvenile, actually? Isn't it more juvenile to want a line canceled because you personally don't like the series?

Whatever, really. I'm gonna pick up Johnny and Gyro whenever and aside from that pick up some popcorn before that happens.

Your guess is as good as mine man, I watched the first few eps around the time it first aired. It was fucking dogshit. The animation looked like a 2nd year uni project, and the voice acting was ultra-cringe, I guess it's what happens when you get anime-obsessed fans to do voices who don't actually know how to voice act.

>rwby.
at least finish your jojo line so I don't have to care anymore. fuck. they dropped parasyte before they did anything cool, same with Rwby.

>>5780533
>entitlement
Fuck off with that argument dude. They tried Kinnikuman in the past and it failed. That's why JoJo became the bread and butter of the line. It's not unreasonable for people who helped keep a line profitable to be a bit annoyed about all these other licenses causing huge delays in getting more JoJo, especially stuff they've been looking forward to for a long time. Especially after JoJo got a popularity boost due to the anime and made the line sell even better which should have accelerated releases if anything.

It doesn't help production in general has slowed down and prices keep going up. Some of us just want to be able to buy the characters we desperately want before these figures turn into $80-100+ a release. All these skipped months with no new releases and then having the few months available going to stuff we don't really care about sucks. With that said I do enjoy the Aijin figure and thought the Parasyte one came out ok too. Baoh has me excited and so does the Drifters figure because I think they have the sculptors that can capture that style amazingly. Tokyo Ghouls has me bored to tears and RWBY...I just don't see how it plays into their sculpting ability, they will look super plain.

On another note, i'm just as pissed about how Max Factory sat on the God Hand figma for so long that now it's probably going to cost me an extra $100-150 to buy them. If prices weren't skyrocketing we wouldn't be so mad about all these non-JoJo figures taking up spots.

>>5780660
How many series get this many figures?

Yes, I hate the fact that prices are going up, but that would happen regardless, and if it weren't Tokyo Ghoul, or RWBY, or whatever series you don't or do like, they'd go for other series as well.

Be happy Medicos is and has been so dedicated to Jojo. If it were a Figma line, you would maybe have had four figures at most, rather than most villains and main and secondary characters.

So yeah, I do see this "no, fuck other series. Medicos belongs to Jojo." mentality as entitlement.

I'm curious, got a link or pics?

Here you go senpai:
>>5779680

>>5780660
You can't even include Kinnikuman in your argument as to why they shouldn't branch out to other series. That line died because they fucked up by not releasing the namesake character of the series before making 3 variants each of the other characters.

Of course nobody was down to buy more repaints and medicos probably dropped it because the figs were selling like shit.

>>5780670
>how many series get this many figures
it's almost like things that sell will run a longs time. it's almost like a popular mango that's been running for around 30 years will be good material for toys. I dont really care if medicos does other things, but they should at least catch up to the thing that brought them success. they've had about a decade now. also I'm pissed they chose rwby, it is a waste of their talents. rwby is better for figmas.

>>5780334
No. It's entirely under Japan's radar, they have better shit to watch. I don't even think it's released in Japanese.

I guarantee you this is just Rooster Teeth milking its retarded fanbase. They were dumb enough to pay 200 each for 3A's of the main cast. They'll easily pay 90 each for these.

>>5780678
thanks

>>5780715
RWBY has a Japanese dub with some pretty good VAs. You're correct on Rooster Teeth fans buying anything, they helped Kickstart a movie and a Cards Against Humanity type card game.

>>5780712
>I dont really care if medicos does other things, but they should at least catch up to the thing that brought them success.

Well, that I agree with.

>>5780712
It's most likely because Jojo is Medicos' bread and butter, and if they piss all that away, they're going to be struggling a bit as they haven't secured any other/enough selling licenses. They're dragging it to make their revenues spread about, maybe.

>>5780759
they could always start doing side characters.

>>5780801
That's if it's profitable enough, especially with the inflation.

Hey anons, for some reason my peg wont go/fit into my sheer heart attack (1st) since the peg is much larger than the hole. Is there a trick for it?

>>5780670
>How many series get this many figures?
Gundam, Marvel/DC stuff, GI Joes, Transformers and I could keep going. If shit is selling well it will keep getting figures so don't act like Medicos did us some special favor. They did what was in their own best interest at the time.

>If it were a Figma line, you would maybe have had four figures at most, rather than most villains and main and secondary characters.
Max Factory and Bandai have more money at their disposal to buy up flavor of the month licenses to make quick profit. Medicos was a smaller company and their focus on JoJo was probably one part passion and one part survival because JoJo fans are super reliable to sell to. We won't skip releases because we tend to want them all and more, including paint variants that don't do so hot with other lines. Which means a lot of saved money on tooling for them.

>So yeah, I do see this "no, fuck other series. Medicos belongs to Jojo." mentality as entitlement.
You keep confusing reasonable frustration with entitlement. They wouldn't even have the money to experiment with new licenses if it wasn't for JoJo fans keeping them alive until the new anime gave them huge profits. It's still be JoJo only otherwise. It's not unreasonable to be afraid they will go the Max Factory/Bandai/Revoltech route and focus on nostalgia bait or flavor of the month.

Last year we got FIVE new releases for JoJo, the rest was repaints, re-releases or WF exclusives. This year so far we only have TWO new releases plus less repaints and re-releases. If this keeps up we may never get certain characters at all. At this pace I highly doubt we'll be getting as many secondary mains and villains.

>>5780300
Neat. Not a big fan of the show honestly, but I really like Ruby's design, so probably will pick that up.

>>5780844
It's pretty small and usually I use this for regular size figures but usually a light rub of sandpaper to file it down would help fit it in. Alternatively some warm water on SHA could soften the plastic around the peg hole and you could widen it a little bit to fit the peg in.

>>5780845
>Gundam, Marvel/DC stuff, GI Joes, Transformers and I could keep going. If shit is selling well it will keep getting figures so don't act like Medicos did us some special favor. They did what was in their own best interest at the time.

I mean non-western shit. Gundam would be one good example, I guess.

And I don't see it as a special favor, but both sides get something out of it.

>You keep confusing reasonable frustration with entitlement. They wouldn't even have the money to experiment with new licenses if it wasn't for JoJo fans keeping them alive until the new anime gave them huge profits.
Don't tell me you feel they owe Jojo fans.

>Last year we got FIVE new releases for JoJo, the rest was repaints, re-releases or WF exclusives. This year so far we only have TWO new releases plus less repaints and re-releases.

Perhaps that entire paragraph explains itself? With their current schedule and plans, there's little left for them to do, and they have not yet shown any intention to do more secondary characters, do different designs (besides Rohan) and do characters they missed from parts they did touch on before.

Maybe they're trying to postpone the end to their Jojo line, which would also explain them frantically delving into other stuff.

>>5780874
Alright thanks, can i use a hairdryer too to soften it like back in the older figma days?

>>5780877
SH Figuarts used to basically just be the Kamen Rider line before it branched out, and that still basically gets a majority of the releases.

>>5780881
>SH Figuarts used to basically just be the Kamen Rider line before it branched out
Not to Medicos' extent. It stopped being mainly Kamen Rider within a year and a half, while SAS was practically Jojo only until recently with Kinnikuman being dropped
>and that still basically gets a majority of the releases.
Not anymore.

>>5780878
You could but try to focus it in on the peghole and slowly fit the peg in. Just don't remold it too wide or small and make sure you don't end up warping another part of the piece.

>>5780881
Fuck, good point.

>>5780889
makes great points, too, but I entirely forgot about Kamen Rider and SH Figuarts.

Still, in general, with high-quality, import figures, getting more than 4 figures is actually pretty rare I'd say.

>>5780897
I disagree, it all depends on the series.

Many series don't warrant having more than two figures (warrant being sellable enough)

>>5780877
>Don't tell me you feel they owe Jojo fans
No. I'm explaining the feelings that JoJo fans may be feeling. Most thought we'd get more releases as a result of the anime boost, not less. Yeah we got some re-releases and repaints out of it which is nice but some were probably expecting more new figures out of it.

>Maybe they're trying to postpone the end to their Jojo line, which would also explain them frantically delving into other stuff.
They are missing tons of characters, there is no reason for it to end. They haven't even tried releasing some of the secondary characters just to see what happens.

>>5780938

Ah, all right.

>They are missing tons of characters, there is no reason for it to end. They haven't even tried releasing some of the secondary characters just to see what happens.

Just because they haven't tried doesn't mean they will, though. I mean, they might, and I hope they do, but sometimes companies just operate on the assumption that something might or might not work, and then do it or refrain from doing it based on that.

I would say a minute. If it's still stiff then make it a little hotter. Test it to see how soft it is before trying to fit the peg in before you snap it.

Don't comment when you don't know what the fuck you're talking about, RWBY has enjoyed pretty significant success in Japan over the last year.

>>5781057
Villains and their respective stands usually go last so you have to endure going through the protagonist and side characters first so you're going to wait much longer on top of new figure announcements. You're going to play a major waiting game

>>5780715
>Rooster Teeth

There's your problem- RT lost any value after Bethesda paid them to insult Jeff Gerstmann over his negative review of Fallot 4.

>>5781071
So this just confirms Japan has shit taste.

>>5781105
Japanese Otaku have shit taste, whereas everyone else just likes Star Wars and Marvel movies, which isn't necessarily a bad thing although I'm sure some bitter and cynical types on here would say otherwise.

>>5781057
You'll probably have to wait till late 2017 to see any Deeforshi and Valentine, which to be honest isn't bad, and is what most people predicted even way back before the Jojo line got watered down and other stuff took precedence.

We're probably looking at like, 4 new figures a year. This year we'll get Rohan and Gyro, next year we'll get Johnny, Valentine, D4C and maybe something Diego related.

>>5781103
I wish you retards would walk into traffic already.

>>5780300
>we could potentially see gyro and johnny prototypes in a few weeks

I forgive you for last wonfes medicos, just please dont fuck me over again this time...

>>5781130
Gyro is definitely not this year. You're forgetting baoh. At this rate i'd say maybe next summer.

>>5781137
Not forgetting Baoh at all, I was hoping we'd get at least 3 SAS before the year is out, now I think about it though that almost feels asking for too much.

I have been out of touch for months now (I don't have the money to buyfag hard), so, do we have SBR something or F.F. ? Last new Jojo SAS I heard about was that third Rohan (aside of new colors for Dio or Okuyasu)

>>5781189
Pretty much nothing since you last heard. We had Pucci and Whitesnake release, but no new announcements beyond what you may have seen at WonFes last February.

>>5781189
F.F is a lost cause now that we are moving on to SBR with Gyro and Johnny. Maybe a statue legend if someone remembered her.

>>5781198
They can always go back, I mean they're releasing a new Rohan (I'm just holding out hope we get a Weather Report stand)

>>5781236
That's what I want to hope for but given Rohan's reputation and the anime I can only see him being the exception.

I just give up now on that hope, same with Lisa Lisa and Stroheim ever since the statue legends. I'm not even sure F.F was even in Medico's cross hairs.

I was at least hoping Medicos would give Weather Report his stand. It's going to really bother me with him being the only character aside from Iggy (and The Fool statue is in pretty good scale) without any real way to get his stand.

Where the fuck did the search options for preowned items on amiami go?

No one mentioned Kuromukuro yet? Although it is listed just as action figure and not SAS. I guess it's for the mech? Haven't seen it yet but I assume the anime title is also name of the main mech.

>>5781764
It's listed as Statue Legends. No articulation for you!

>>5781764
SAS mechs would be pretty nice.

>>5781588
If Koichi's any inidication, Emporio would be pretty shit.

MiH would work better as a statue too.

>>5781626
I like how you didn't call the designs bad, just gimmicky and cliche.
I'd take their designs because they are cliche with a bit of flair

>>5781806
Because they're not bad, they're just cliché. Cliché things can still be good, and in fact they're cliché for a reason: because they appeal.

But for me, White Grey Fox, Tumblr's Rad Russian, slightly modern Cowboy-man and Gamur Gurl ft. Mech are pretty uninspired and typical.

>>5781909
True enough, I'd kill for a zen robot though.

>>5781945
Zen Robot is actually pretty cool.

>>5781799
I can agree with you there, but considering how Medicos gave even Trish and Cripplereff a figure, it's weird how they skipped Emporio and his potential for having a shitload of accessories. Weather Report the stand is just a baffling move to skip, since it has a really cool design.
C-Moon and MiH are understandable since they have about 5 poses between the two of them, but collectors would easily buy them for completion/design anyways. Statue legends are looking like a lost cause at this point, seeing how they never even finished part 4 (josuke never) or 5 before making stupidly expensive 3 statues again.

>>5782071
Part six was the unfortunate victim of Medico going multi IP. I like to believe that if this were still Part 4/5 era we would have got FF and Weather Report stand at least.

>>5775626
He got a rerelease a few months ago, so the chances are kind of slim.
