Anyone has MegaHouse Variable Action figures. Are they worth the money? Wanting to buy this but ¥9,800 is too much to gamble.
>>
>>5893655
Well most of there human figures have been pretty decent and its the only poseable gintoki out there so i would say go for it.
>>
>>5893655
I have Luffy, Zoro, and Nami and I feel Nami and Zoro were worth what I paid. Luffy is the weakest of the three I have. I wish he was $15 cheaper.
>>
>>5893655
I like them. I'm also not a scale autist so having them and other sized figures doesn't bother me one bit. I don't like them enough to pay the price creep that they have going on now, and especially not 9800Y. I think I'll stop collecting them, which is too bad because I wanted Sanji.

I have Mihawk, Luffy, and Ace (the reissue). Ace is fucking incredible, but has two joints which pop out like crazy (the right foot and mid-torso) so that knocks him down from perfection. Mihawk is also pretty damned good but there's no way for a single arm to hold up his giant sword. The elbow is too weak. His hips also have a lot of give to allow him to sit cross-legged, but it means he can tip over really easily. Luffy I love just for it being a simple but well done version; I think he looks best if you pop his torso and remove the sash. The lack of effect parts is a waste, though.

It's a good line, but they have a lot of issues to settle.
>>
>>5893655
I have a VAH Jizuri Suzaku, pretty nice but I wish her ankles had a little more side-to-side motion, and her giant wrenches are pretty hard to work into her holding hands.

I'd like to get as many of the Straw Hats as I can.
>>
All I can say no way in fujohell he will bin. But there will be tons of pictures on release so maybe, if you are fast enough, you will be able to pick it up after the first wave of Japanese unboxings.
>>
>>5894021
What do you mean? These usually don't sell out so fast.
>>
>>5894021
They've found a way to re-release every older figure thus far that i can think of. They even rereleased Nami with a few upgrades (especially if you have a ponytail fetish)
>>
>>5894231
Where was this released exactly? I saw promos but I don't see it on any of the big three import sites.
>>
>>5894252
I've seen Punk Hazard Nami up for pre-order on a lot of sites like Tokyo Otaku Mode and play-asia, not sure why she isn't up on HLJ or amiami, sorry.
>>
>>5894284
I think I've seen that before with some imports actually, where western sites put up their POs before Eastern ones.
>>
>>5894297
Western sites are saying november to december though which is weird. They could be completely wrong though.
>>
>>5893716
>The lack of effect parts is a waste, though.

That's my main issue with Luffy for how much he cost. He should have at least a stretched out arm or a piece of meat for that price. Nami came with a lot of cool parts.
>>
>>5894021
Fujos don't buy figures though. There are many fujobait figures of bishie characters that doesn't sell
>>
I don't know if I should grab this or Zoro.

I have VAH Luffy, Law, Ace, Sabo, Zoro, Nami, Mihawk, and Chopper. I have Sanji, Hancock, Robin, other Nami and Gintoki on preorder.

Each figure has it's own issues. Luffy's sash can crack if you pose him putting stress on that piece. First run Law has weak ankles, but second run doesn't. Ace is as close to perfection as you'll get. I don't recall any issues with Zoro and Sabo either. The hat on my Mihawk flops off rather easily. Chopper is shit. And Nami is great, minus she can't really stand on her own.
>>

>And Nami is great, minus she can't really stand on her own.

Makes me worry about a possible Brook figure.
>>
>>5895293
Would you recommend Zoro or Ace more?

See, they are both good figures, but I like Ace as a character better than Zoro. Plus he's an awkward figure due to his outfit. Ace is very simple. Mine spends his days sitting with bananas.
>>
>>5895293
>>5895764
Yeah, I love the Ace figure. The torso is easily the best engineered one I've ever seen. The range of motion is crazy dynamic, and it lets him have the best punch poses I could ever imagine.
>>
>>5895764
I was never that big a fan of Ace. He was never in the manga long enough for me to become attached to him like Zoro.
>>

>>5895771

>>5896347
Ace's body looks great. Zoro's chest looks like a tank top but his clothes look better. I wanna buy something with more paint and shading for that money. Wish Ace's pants and the orange bits had shading.
>>
>>5896963
I just got the reissue Zoro today and he's painted quite well.

So how do you think the skirt articulation on her and Hancock will work? It seems clear there's some kind of hinge or swivel of some sort.

Even without Nami being able to about crunch she's still top tier for me.

DARK JUSTICE is finally here, but he's feels a little lackluster for some reason.
I was expecting something like a finger-pistol effect part, but having the hat, coat, and hattori be removable seems pretty cool. Would've preferred the standard version instead of Gold, but still instant-preordered.
These things better be worth the price though. They're really damn steep.

Why is that part of his kimono above his shoulder sticks up like that? Looks like he is wearing a plastic bag. It's not like that in the promo pics. I hope they fix it before release.
>>
>>5899406
probably so as to not restrict the upward motion of the shoulder joint. It probable goes away if you move the shoulder up.
>>
>>5899412
Damn, he must be posed shrugging all the time to hide that gap.
>>
>>5899427
Look at the promotional shots behind him.
>>
>>5899440
The displayed figure's shoulder is in the same position as the promo pic. Also that part is under his collars in the promo but it is higher on the actual displayed figure. It's not about shoulder being up or down.

Zura figure when?
>>
>>5899406
judging from what I've seen with other VAH figures, I bet the chest part of his robe is free floating and you can push it down lower on him.
>>
I wish they had done pre-timeskip Zoro, so he didn't have this fucking skirt messing with his legs. Otherwise it's the best (only) Zoro figure, so of course I had to get it.

Waiting to see the true leg articulation on Sanji, I want a pair, but only if he can really throw that leg up there.
>>
My only problem with my Zoro figure is that compared to all the other figures, his head feels like it's too small.

Anyone else see this?
>>
>>5899641
Mihawk has insane range on his legs, better than some of my SHF with drop down hips. If they go with the Mihawk formula for Sanji there will be no complaints.
>>
>>5899641
The skirt opens up a lot. A lot. I can get some pretty decent motion out of his legs.
>>
>>5901527
yeah, I have it, but it only allows "decent" motion. I'd like "excellent".

Oh man Zura would be so rad. Also pic related. I really hope the line does well
>>
>>5902296
VAH has had enough success to warrant reissues. As a Bandai company, that seems to be reserved mostly for their best sellers, so it's probably doing well enough to keep releasing well into the future.
>>
Boa Hancock's been pushed back 'till October.
>>
>>5902306
I meant Gintama line. OP is like 20x more popular than Gintama. OP is almost literally the spiritual successor to Dragon Boru
>>
>>5902319
How far?
>>
>>5902330
Hobbysearch is just giving me "Late October".
This may just be a HS thing as it's the only site amongst the big three with such a note up, but it may also just be that the other sites haven't updated yet because it's 2AM.
>>
>>5902337
That sucks. I now got two Figma's plus Boa, plus Vidya, now to worry about come Oct-Nov.
>>
>>5902355
But only one of those is guaranteed to have the most fucking massive scale-sized titties on a modern non-custom posable figure, so you should know where your priorities lie.
>>
>>5902296
>>5899518
Zura janai, Katsura da!
>>
>>5902319
I had her preordered with another figure.

Will AmiAmi let me cancel the order for the other figure? I can get it cheaper elsewhere.
>>
>>5902513
IIRC AmiAmi is really touchy about cancellations.
>>
>>5902319
Just saw the notice of this in my email

Sucks because I really want her.
>>
>>5893655
I'm so in between with this and a figma figure. Help me /toy/ Gods.
>>
>>5904963
figma is getting pricier with fewer accessories. VAH was already pricey and is getting pricier but they are adding more and more accessories with each release.

That's about all I got.
>>
>>5899518
They are making a nicotine poisoning figure?
