Revoltech General: Spider-Man pre-order starts Edition

Spider-Man is straight up available on amiami btw. A little surprised. Will see how that goes.

Hopefully this thread will be oozing with Assemble Borgs pics.

Probably the most posable spidey figure I've seen.

>>5950274
Thanks for the heads up.

>>5950274
Time trash my ML
If anything happens, hopefully they honor early orders like they said they would with Deadpool

>>5950274
Thanks anon.

>>5950294
We shall see how that goes too. I didn't go with amiami for Deadpool but have like 3 website orders so see how that goes. I will get none, few or many depending who delivers...

I rarely used amiami, do they not have limit per customer? Or just for hot items? And they will show that/not allow you to go over right?

>>5950309
There are limits on certain figures
It tells you where it says Purchase Limit, so Spidey's is 3 per household

>>5950315
Haha I didn't noticed but it's under that so no problem then. Thanks.

>>5950274
>Hopefully this thread will be oozing with Assemble Borgs pics.

I hope someone gets a few, I've been debating getting some, but I'm not sure which ones would be worth it.

Where the fuck is Beat?

>>5950274
>>5950299
I'm really hoping HLJ gets him, I already have a bunch of january orders with them and none with amiami. Amiami getting him at all is a good sign though, I was half thinking they wouldn't even go up after what happened to deadpool.

>>5950274
Thanks anon. Just got mine. The other thread is too busy arguing and circlejerking.

>>5950274
Cool, glad I got a preorder in this time, surprised he's coming out so soon.

Very excited for venom now.

>>5950382
Well it was time for new Revo General anyways. I thought about waiting for VL news but not sure if that's happening anytime soon.

I didn't expect amiami to have it out at all.

where is my glavenus hunter????
i want more MH hunters dammit

Oh HLJ has him up too. Interesting.

>>5950380
Story in this please?

Now I'm worried about my preorder

>>5950410
Eventually.

Would be rad if they do Hellblade as a sort of special variant instead of doing like one accessory recolor like the Felynes.

>>5950429
Deadpool page got taken down on multiple sites soon after PO started because certain companies had distribution rights in the US for comic book action figures of that scale. People who placed their orders before that will probably get theirs, but who really knows. So it's surprising Spider-Man went up on the same sites.

Maybe Kaiyodo worked something out.

So Deadpool isn't getting released due to licensing?

>>5950429
Disney/Fox licensing shenanigans.

>>5950451
I think Amiami said at the time that existing orders will be honored, but of course who knows what's happening with that right now...

>>5950451
Not really licensing, but distribution rights.

Kaiyodo got the license, they can make and sell them within Japan. But technically these figures are not allowed to be sold outside of Japan (unless they got the rights to do so) so when US companies who do have that right told Kaiyodo (probably) to stop stores from selling them internationally, they probably sent e-mails to places like amiami and HLJ to take the page down their international site.

I don't know shit, but something like that went down. It was Mezco and someplace else apparently? Wasn't really Hasbro it seems.

>It was Mezco and someplace else apparently? Wasn't really Hasbro it seems.
oh geez, you really took what i said seriously? There are no cockfighting rings under the Disney castles

The only company that can tell a licensee to do anything is the licensor. Disney would be the one communicating and enforcing license agreements, if not Marvel themselves. Kaiyodo would then be the one telling distributors not to sell them internationally.

>>5950669
>what i said seriously?
No, hence I wrote "apparently?" and also emphasized I don't know shit. You have a strange parameter for seriousness. Went with the post talking of Diamond and Mezco having rights to 6 inch figures. Didn't know the exact context since I wasn't following the entire chain, but I guess you posted that for a different reason.

With SW kits thing folks seem to point fingers at Revell or someone so I figured similar situation was at play.

You would think Disney or Marvel wont care of such things, only the companies making the damn toys who have some competition.

>tfw still getting dat Deadpool figure

Someone remind me- was the Revo Venom Snake any good, or did Union Creative do a better job?

>>5950947
The Revo VS is a mini, so it's automatically shit.

The union creative one is unilaterally accepted as the better one.

>>5950947
Yes he is pretty fun.
He is a mini though so not really as comparable.
Still one of those solid little desk toys though.

>>5950914
Not at all. Deadpool was pulled within hours and spidey is still here

>>5950947
They were both made by the same person

>mafex spidey has red metallic paint and blue is matte
>revo is opposite

Honestly I wish they wouldnt do metallic at all but I guess the blue is preferable.

>>5950973
Is it a branding thing? Seems the only difference between Spidey and Deadpool is dropping the "Amecomi" (American Comics) in the title.

Maybe the issue was simply that Marvel didn't want the revo figure directly associated with the "comic" character?

>>5950947
I'll say The Mini poses better than the bigger VulcanLog Snake by Union Creative. Ultimately it comes down to which scale you prefer.

>>5950978
And the figma was entirely metallic. SHF version should have no metallic paint if the pattern continues

>>5951001
No, Deadpool was called Amazing Yamaguchi already at that point when preorders started.

Not sure what changed. Maybe Kaiyodo worked something out. Or it was who was holding the movie rights that caused Deadpool's takedown since that's different between Spider-Man and Deadpool. Kaiyodo may have had more of a solid deal on Spider-Man character because they made few before.

Anyways, can't form a patter with just 2 cases.

>>5951084
Well it will be the latest movie suit so that might actually be true.

Unless the newest suit in Homecoming has metallic surfaces and Bandai goes with that.

from how Disney has not really cared too much in the about the japanese licensed stuff in general being fairly easily available for US purchasing, but only cares about isolated cases, I do think it has to do with one of their Licensees bitching about it. It doesn't make sense for them to have suddenly starting the crackdown on model kits, but not care about the action figures, especially when the exact same company(Bandai) who was making the kits also made figures.

Also a curious line of thought here, does Disney have command over the deadpool license for toy purposes? I am sure they can still have control over the comic likenesses, but just want some actual clarification on what Fox can and can't be total dicks about for their chunk of Marvel.

>>5951107
Ah my bad and looked at Japanese amiami and it was Amazing so thought it was like that from the start. Regardless orders would come back up after the switch if it was that one word being the cause.

>>5951115
Fox got X-Men and Fantastic Four, plus anyone associated with those titles generally.

It seems how that basically work is, if a character makes a first appearance in those comics, that character is part of that title and thus the film company can use them.

You could always just wait for Spiderman to go up on Mandy if the main sites don't sell him, right?

>>5951135
That is the basic gist of it for new characters, which is why the X-Men comics have been stagnating with lack of new characters, but it seems a lot more complicated for heroes who already existed before all this confusion.

Quicksilver is owned by both of the studios for making films. The twins are mutants and children of Magneto (well until Marvel retconned it to further screw with Fox), yet they really had very little presence in Xmen comics, they were primarily Avengers. Rumor goes Fox tried to do films with both the twins but eventually agreed to allow to let go of Scarlet Witch as long as Disney/Marvel killed off Quicksilver right away and did not use their hero names. But don't quote me on that, those two are just in some really crazy legal tug of war, and Diney and Fox have not come forward to outright clearly express what is going on to the fans regarding all this.

Namor is also in a weird legal gray area, but that involves Universal, not Fox, and it's really weird that NEITHER company can actually make a film with the company last I heard, this might have changed now.

>>5951207
>Namor
Interesting. He is one of the very first super heroes for Marvel/Timely so I thought he was above all that who has whom madness and clearly belonged to Marvel. He appears in Marvel Comics #1 after all seems strange Universal has their hands on him, but I guess it was one of the clearance sale properties Marvel had back in the day.

Hulk is the one Universal still has some movie rights to so Marvel Studios can't make Hulk movies without paying Universal. So they just say fuck it we're putting Hulk in other movies to carry out his stories. Namor might be a similar ordeal.

Fantastic Four property seems like the most wasted since many cool cosmic villains are tied to it.

>>5951135
>>5951207
Oh and I forgot to mention that a couple characters who throw a wrench into the 'first appearance' theory for how the license works is Rogue who first appeared in the Avengers and Wolverine who first appeared in Hulk. There are a couple others but they aren't nearly as big names as those two.

>>5951254
Don't forget Namor has the confusing issue of appearing on practically every team with no clear cut 'is primarily ___'. Fortunately Universal had purchasedd the rights to him specifically so those rights are probably more clear cut then they otherwise would be, but no one knows what this means about the other characters associated with Namor and not other marvel works.

I just looked up on the current status for Namor and apparrantly it seems the CCO just a few months ago stated that to his knowledge Marvel now has film rights to him. However let it be known that a few years ago he said the same thing and turned out to be mistaken when the Marvel films prresident confirmed that marvel still didd not have the rights. There proceeded to be several more times over the years someone claims, 'Marvel now has the rights' only for Feige or someone else to have to clarify, 'no not quite yet, working on it.' So maybe Universal owning specifically Namor was not quite so clear cut as I first assumed. Man, this whole marvel thing is a complete and total mess.

>>5950952

I did notice that the sculpt was kind of wank, even for a Revoltech, but what's so bad about minis in general?

Anyone happen to have the EX Ground Zeroes Snake? I was thinking about picking one up from mandarake, but I really can't find any reviews of it or a close up on the head sculpt so I can decide between him and the Peace Walker ver since they seem to have the same body.

>>5951378

wait what? creepy woody? is this a reissue?

>>5951384
Yeah they reissue it constantly

>>5951309
Nothing, he's being retarded.

Sculpt can be weak since they are much smaller.

Downside is price. If you're an idiot who thinks size reflects price then you may feel ripped off.

Otherwise, the joints they used in the Minis are amazing and makes them so fun to pose around.

>>5951384
Like for the 6th time. Might be getting to Japanese figure records if you ignore stuff like Gunpla.

>>5951488
I remember hearing somewhere they wanted to get a few things beyond just Marvel/DC.
I guess for now we're waiting on the Venom prototype, and by then they should tease the next few characters.

The safe money would be on either Wolverine or maybe like Batman coming next, but maybe we'll get something like Samurai Jack or Hellboy down the line.

>>5951488
Can't wait for Venom. I think it'd be cool if Yamaguchi does Spawn. Oh, and MvC Wolverine.

>>5951683
I really really reeeeaaally just want a classic Superman.

Just ONE decent Classic Superman figure.

JUST ONE.

>>5951710
Rule of thumb says flagship characters get first go, and they seem to be doing mainline comic costumes rather than movie versions, so I'd say there's a decent chance of that, Anon.

>>5951777
Thanks for seconding my hope anon.

And nice trips.

Spidey is gonna be big so I can't wait to see all the shit posts about him not fitting into people's displays because he's so big.

>>5951839
I can't wait to hear all the complaints from ACBA and normie fags who can't pose him and then shit on the figure and line

>>5951839

What? Revo's all hang around 6". Thats 1/12th. Aren't Marvel figs usually 1/12th?

>>5951854
I was thinking about next to figuarts but he should just abut fit with MLs.

>>5951846
But most ACBAfags can pose just fine.

>>5951918
Yet struggle like disabled toddlers when it comes to using a Revoltech.

Nigga wat

The defining feature of ACBA is the retarded posing (along with useless and overpriced "stands", elitism over MLs of all things, alleyway dioramas and hilariously bad rap videos).

>>5951925
Oh yeah that's true.

It's the weirdest thing when I hear people complain about revo articulation when they practically pose themselves.

>>5951926
>elitism over MLs of all things
>alleyway dioramas
>hilariously bad rap videos
Oh yeah that's true, you also forgot they sad and weird sense of pride, but:

>the retarded posing
Nah, you remind me of a duder who tried to put down ACBA to defend the photo thread here, and the photo thread was fucking laughable.

Yeah they're dumb hoodrat douchebags and lots of people there have zero taste, but they can pose.

>>5951925
>>5951927
It's cause people try to pose them like ML.

>where's the bicep swivel?
>why would anyone need this big dumb neck hinge? It just needlessly breaks up the sculpt

>>5951935
Oh the photo thread is 99.9% rubbish (I think, barely ever go there) and ACBA's posing I suppose is competent-ish...providing it's with an ML. I seem to recall a photo from their page featuring Figuarts Luke and the pose he was in literally looked like a game model whose animation data had been deleted and so had reverted to a T-pose. Also, the photo thread is just a bunch of random guys whilst ACBA makes themselves out to be some kind of creme de la creme of toy photography...whatever that is.

TLDR: They can pose alright-ish with a single articulation scheme but give them anything other than an ML and they go full retard. Obviosuly Revos are semi-forgivable as often the joint layouts are kinda unusual, but how they managed to fuck up posing a Figuarts I have no idea.

>>5951953
>makes themselves out to be some kind of creme de la creme of toy photography
Oh yeah it's so retarded, they even have trademarks and everything, it's so sad.

>>5951846
I don't think all ACBAfags hate revos or at least not D Amazing and the people that follow him. I recall him calling out normalfag collectors that cry about the joints and how they can't pose them in multiple of his Revoltech figure reviews.

In the promo pic of the new line it explained the concept for the line. Said it also want to do non-Amecomi characters in the same style. What they mean I bet is doing Japanese properties just like before in Yamaguchi style, but just branding it as AmeComi style.
They dropped thant name for Amazing so they can do whatever now without contradicting the brand name.
I'm sure we will see Batman eventually as Kaiyodo still seem to have rights to do the character beyong the DK movie with the 66 Batmobile. Other DC characters who knows.

>>5952080
So what you're saying is that there's still hope for Revoltech Guts?
Because I've been dying for a Revo Guts forever now.

>>5952152
Only for Berserker armor I hope since I can see some interesting changes to it to make it manage certain poses like the one manga cover art. The figma is fine but they botched it with the heavy sculpted cape and not opting for a cloth one.

>>5952328
The revo would have a segmented cape though, they don't do cloth.

>>5952344
I figured that but I was mostly annoyed with managing Figma Berserker Guts with that sculpted cape seeing how posable he is without it. At the end I can find a way to rig up a cloth cape so nothing would hinder a Revo Berserker Guts. Segmented is just not going to work for me.

>>5951927
>they practically pose themselves

Afraid that hasn't been my experience on the few occasions I've bothered with them.

>>5950716
>You would think Disney or Marvel wont care of such things, only the companies making the damn toys who have some competition.
Are you dumb?
They're the ones that divided up market to create the licenses so they can maximize the amount of money they get. They're going to enforce their contracts, otherwise the contracts mean shit and they won't get as much money next time.
If someone wants more than one region, they have to pay top dollar like Hasbro does. You think Mezco, Bandai, and Diamond have that kind of money? Even though Bandai has more money than Mezco and Diamond, their distribution/market share is a lot smaller in the direct market. So it probably isn't worth it for them to pay up for the NA rights.

>>5951115
You're just generally ignorant.
Look up their anti-trust and anti-competitive lawsuits and you'll see companies getting all butthurt that they're not allowed to do whatever they want with the license.
Disney's lawyers are busy every single day, trying to prove that they need to be paid every single minute and actively seek shit out.
You only notice the "isolated cases" when it affects you.

Dino Armor Hunter preorder starts tomorrow,

Good, VulcanLog not forgotten.

January release, 6980 Yen.

>>5952921
Jesus christ why is it so expensive.

7000 yen-ish for 1/12th figure is somewhat acceptable nowadays

>>5953502
Why? China. Not cheap labor anymore.

>>5952919
That reasoning has occurred to me, but still it's not like Bandai or Kaiyodo are opening shops in US and stocking up places themselves. Their own online stores does not ship internationally. Anything beyond that just seems like individual compliance on the various Japanese stores. Disney is the one demanding it but still feels like it happens after toy makers in US filed a complaint for the influx of whatever Japanese toys that threatens them.

Otherwise Disney would be doing an all or nothing tactic and not be so specific with SW kits and Deadpool Revoltech(well, so far). Nothing else has payed for NA rights as far as I know, besides whatever Bluefin may have worked out. As of now it's hard to see if this will be occuring regulary in the future with MAFEX or figma, lines that do Disney property characters at 1/12 size. Revo Spidey seems to be fine. It doesn't look like they're doing it to get Japanese companies to pay up for more but just to keep their NA partners happy whenever they raise their voice.

Again, what do I know.

Does anyone else think $75 is kind of a lot for a revoltech spidey or am I just being an idiot?

I'd honestly be fine with his non-berserk berserk armor form. It's been his look since like 2004, and if Yamaguchi only gets the greenlight for one Berserk figure, I'd personally like the one with the autobow and the cannon arm.

Yes, but companies like Bandai are supposed to enforce that.
Just like how stores in the US put up those "do not sell until" signs on stacks of pallet stacked boxes. Any store that doesn't comply is penalized either through fines or not being able to carry the line anymore. Stuff like this is written up and enforced by the manufacturer.
I know that DCC penalizes comic stores if they sell their product for much more than their MSRP.

>Disney is the one demanding it but still feels like it happens after toy makers in US filed a complaint for the influx of whatever Japanese toys that threatens them
This is just the pettiness on how you feel denied. When it doesn't affect you, who cares, but it's just life as usual for Disney's lawyers.
Most of /toy/ doesn't care, but when they do they make shit up based on their life up to high school so far. They barely know how licenses work. You might as well say the lizard people are behind it.
Again, Disney/DCC/Marvel/etc PROACTIVELY seeks shit like this out, to ensure that their properties and merch are being handled correctly. And we all know that Disney is ruled by the biggest Illuminati group, right?

As for SpiderMan, it might be too early to tell, but know that Spider-Man is treated as a different license most of hte time. Could work the same way with toys. So stuff like Deadpool is all lumped together by Marvel as an XMen property. Marvel controls that property pretty tightly, espcially now with them feeling slighted by Fox, hence denying movie lines from being made and fucking over their own comic series.

That thing is ugly af, don't waste your money. If you need something to tide you over, get the Mafex ASM2 Spidey.

>>5956239
Is the Mafex the most articulated one out right now?

>>5956247
Yes

>>5956247
In a technical sense, yes, but it's limited in doing some poses cheaper domestic figures can, notably shoulder articulation based poses. It has no butterfly joint, nor a facsimile. It is a good figure overall, though.

2016 had very few Yamaguchi sculpted figures. Although they are all great, assuming there is no fatal flaw with Deadpool besides distribution, I hope 2017 will see much more than this with his own dedicated line. I get it he was busy with supervising articulations of the VulcanLog series, but I do hope for like 6 Revos per year from him. The man use to make like 90% of the releases.

Deadpool needs to ship soon

Is it January yet? At least I have my Raft Spidey, but damn I love Revoltechs and this release is a dream come true.

The Sci Fi one always looked lame so I never went for it. Plus it's the movie design which I never liked. To be fair, the first Amazing Spider-Man movie made me appreciate it a bit more.

Only if you leave it on. It wouldn't discolor immeadiately.

>>5959094
Wow, I'm really impressed with Yamaguchi.
Looking at that anatomy book on the Deadpool preview shots, and his work it looks like he sat down, looked at his success, and saw what peoplle were shitting on.

Then he said, alright, I'm gonna fix this. And he slimmed down the revoltech joints, gave em more ratchets, brushed up on anatomy, and learned how to better place and hide his joints. Not many people you see who manage to make it in the industry who actually try to improve thier ork. Especially ones who stick to a style.

>>5960776
uh, i hate to break it to you, but learning anatomy has little to do with how to make a figure more poseable.
What Yamaguchi did was just place it in a place that gave it more range of motion and tried to hide the joints at very select spots, because it's noticeable as fuck and looks unnatural.
Basically, he cut away as much anatomy as possible and you're just looking at carefully photographed angles to make it look as pretty as possible. Of course, nothing makes the neck pretty

>>5960795
That's his method. Where others will make a standing pose figure and just add joints to it so it can move, Yamaguchi works from the poses he wants the figures to take, place in the joints and carve away bits necessary to get those poses. This was what he did since the cut joints only days of his career, and he works on the same basic principles today.

He always have looked at anatomy books because he wants the poses the figures make still look like what a person would be like in those poses. Most action figures fails at this aspect, looking like a robot striking the pose. How he positions shoulder joints is a good example, he places them towards the top, closer to the neck where as most place them to the sides of the body.

Unlike other figure series, Revoltechs don't really have a "standard body buck" so each figure requires a unique style of joint placement, and having to do that for 10 years he has refined his skills and found a pretty good articulated male body sculpt that has become the standard for his recent works.

>>5960776
>he slimmed down the revoltech joints,
? The dimensions of the joints have been the same since day 1, plus any new joints added later. Everyone makes improvements over the years, well in Japanese figures anyways, it's just easier to notice with Kaiyodo sculptors because you know who have done what.

>>5958205
You sure? I wanna say he was like $70-75 on BBTS, when I checked, plus whatever shipping they charge. Amiami may still be a little bit cheaper. I checked Deadpool and I snagged him when he was $65 from BBTS. Any idea why Spidey would be more expensive?

>>5960795
>uh, i hate to break it to you, but learning anatomy has little to do with how to make a figure more poseable.
never said it did, I said he learned anatomy , didn't say what it was applicable to, but it should be obvious what it would help do.
>What Yamaguchi did was just place it in a place that gave it more range of motion and tried to hide the joints at very select spots, because it's noticeable as fuck and looks unnatural.
Having owned older revoltechs, this is bullshit. Older ones were not able to pull off a decent looking standing pose. Aside from that, no matter how dynamic they looked, you couldn't get them to look halfway decent doing poses either. It was only recently, around Vash, that they became good, not counting QB stuff.

>he cut away as much anatomy as possible and you're just looking at carefully photographed angles to make it look as pretty as possible.
when did he say this?

>>5960972
>The dimensions of the joints have been the same since day 1, plus any new joints added later. That's what I mean, Most of the older revoltechs had poorly hidden swivels and only used the massive joints, or the tiny ones. All these inbetween/varied joints joints weren't really fully implemented until later. Pick up a shitty Dante to see what I'm talking about. Aside from that, the QB joints were around when the lines started using more than two or so kinds of joints. They were also poorly made at the start, like P2 Nanael, and would fall apart easily. Revoltechs only started to not be terrrible around Raiden's release, at least for humans. Till then, most of /toy/ wasn't to thrilled with thier articulation and posing in general.
> Everyone makes improvements over the years, well in Japanese figures anyways, it's just easier to notice with Kaiyodo sculptors because you know who have done what.
Yeah, but compare Yamiguchi to someone like Liefeld, the improvements Yamaguichi has made recently really blow me away.

>>5960980
because they know they can milk people for spiderman, more than deadpool.

I emailed BBTS about the Revo Deadpool & they replied saying they're still getting him in. So no worries (as of now) if you pre-ordered him there.

>>5961054
I emailed woozymoo as well and told me they're getting them still.

Looks like Kaiyodo is honoring all the overseas orders prior to the restriction.

>>5960992
I was like shit, why quote so much from my post, then realized you didn't hit Enter.

OK the later joints sure. First of all Dante should never really count because it was originally not a Redvoltech but a left over from previous intended Kaiyodo releases. Yamaguchi just forced in the Revo joints for the launch of the new series. The very first figure sculpted with Revolver joints in mind were the Evas, well more accurately the AB body. Also fun fact the first figure to use Revolver joints were the Keroro Gunsou figures Kaiyodo made back then.

6mm joints went thorough a couple of versions, started out fine but degraded over the years till it got changed completely. But yeah over the years they added the 4mm, the "wrist joint" peg and a bunch of joints used in the Minis.

And I wouldn't go so late in the game saying it got better, just certain characters more westerners sought out and realized their charm. Many people got MP Evas recently and loved it, and that was a very typical early Revoltech. Most Mecha Revos are great day one they just have a niche selection so not many had them in hand.

There is a big gap in poseability between cut joint hips and revolver joint hips, so people may noticed that the most.

>>5961123
See that's the thing, I had the revo evas too. They stil had shitty hip swivels that balanced on a twig. My revo eva unit four lookd good, but couldn't do much in the way of natural looking poses, only the most extreme shitty ones. This went on for a while in certain releases. The revo transformers were also guilty of this.

Recently , he's gottne better at placement, anatomy and sculpting, ya know? Tha combined with the better joints makes them able to do more than the most extreme poses.

But like I said, till recently it was a problem. Even the revoltech panzer cop had that problem, also the degrading plasticky paint as well as terrible rubber pieces.

As far as Dante getting revos put in as a last minute thing, he Would've been much better had they replaced all his joints with revoltech joints. Shame that.

But I'd have to say the turn around was the revoltech Vash and the Raiden figures. This is because they drew in people who normally would never get a revo, and showed them just how good revoltech had become.

It's kinda like how PAK were regarded as shit until the DMC figures, and while they'd gotten better at QC,joints, and proportions. Their paint apps were still shit. Ya feel me?

>>5961144
>turnaround was Vash and Raiden
Vash was 2010, Raiden was 2013

That's an awfully generous period of time for a "turn around".

>>5961194
I believe I said Around there earlier in the thread. Was more of a trickle around Vash, not as many people got him as they did Raiden. Wolfwood was also released around Vash, and he had swivel shoulders, if I recall correctly.

>>5961144
Exactly my point, westerners only pick up certain characters and thinks that's when Revos got better. Humanoids alone, Fist of North Star Revos were great figures and if you want to talk Yamaguchi, Reycal was a very well made figure too, minus some 6mm joint issue. Sticky paint is a hit or miss situation that can also be the fault of the factory skimming the cost. I don't think it was that prominent past the No.30 or so, just the occasional unlucky few, like YF-19, and YF-21 for me. Still pretty early and random issue (like Eva-08). Point is there were plenty of good ones early on.

>>5961220
Sounds like your main issue is cut-joints. It was used more in early Revos but there are many that had none at all. New Getter 2 was the first iirc. And beside Fist of North Star and Fraulein series none of the non-Yamaguchi Revos used cut joints in that manner.

>>5961228
Meh, not really. I've had random figures from all their sublines, and random properties. Most of them had some sort of problems. If it wasn't the sculpt, it was the articulation, like patalabor.

Street fighters had qc and height problems. I think the only ones I heard nothign bad from was hokuto no ken, and that's the only one I hadn't tocuhed.

The movie lines by 2008 had some gems, but things didn't really have a baseline of quality till 2013. Now most releases from them look to have similar proportions and articualtion to big boss.

>>5961220
Wolfwood has swivel hips, but revol everything else.

i dunno man, I got into non-hasbro-mattel-shit figures because of the Sengoku Basara line, they looked amazing and were more poseable than anything else I'd ever owned as a kid. I still think they're great figures with a ton of style and are basically THE definitive revoltechs, in terms of what I expect when I buy one. Ain't nobody standing straight, everybody's gonna be legs akimbo, hunched over swinging the fuck out a sword.

>>5961054
Excellent. I would've been massively disappointed with them if they didn't get any.

Hi anons, anyone around here who owns the Takeya Jizai Okimono dragon?

I've finally gotten mine and am super happy but the eyes won't budge or pose at all. Even the small tool they give you to help move them have broken on the tip instead when I try to move it. I tried moving the eyeballs with needles even and it still won't budge. There's also no way to take apart the head to move them from behind instead, like Raiden or Snake so I'm kind of at loss as to what I should do.

Any tips on how to fix this?

>>5961997

Hair dryer to the face. Blast it for a little bit (30-40 secs tops), then try moving the eyes. Repeat until it works.

>>5962062

so to move the eyes, i'll have to hold onto the dragon's head, will the head be softened too? In that case, would I be risking squshing his head?

Also sorry to ask another thing, I'm actually unclear what the material is, so is it safe for me to assume all toy materials are receptive to the hairdryer method?

>>5962116

AFAIK, most plastics won't be harmed by it, unless you're trying to deform it. And it is possible you might if it's a soft enough plastic, or if you do it too much/too long while applying pressure.

But personally, I haven't fucked up any figures by doing it. Your mileage my vary.

>>5961935
They're tiny and sticky despite how cool they look. Also they have tiny ass feet so they can't pose without thier heavy ass backpack falling over.
>>5961968
I don't live in the philipenes, I live in NY. I've owned hundreds of figures, the only ones that's ever went tacky was that panzer cop, a doc strange toy i had as kid, and the revoltech evas. The evas were notorius for going gross.

As for the panzer cop, it was mostly his shitty rubber shoulderpads.

>>5961586
Nah, you're right, for it's time the old shitty revoltechs were still better than 90% of what was out there. Most of the good lines we got now weren't even around then.
>>5961767

>The climate of New York state is generally humid continental, while the extreme southeastern portion of the state (New York City area) lies in the warm temperate climate zone
Counts as an armpit.

I'm scared of looking through my older Revoltechs, which i have not seen for a good year or two, but they were fine last time i saw them before being igored and forgotten because they dont fucking scale with anything.

>>5962173
It really isn't.

The onyl way shit would plasticize in any way is if you kept them in thier box in a sealed Tupperware bin outside. There's only two figures from a ten year stretch that did that to me, and it was a rubber venom head, and a rubber doc strange cape that was stuck in a sealed bin for ten years. Nothing else was effected other than the older revoltechs.

I'd rather have real Doom toys, not "gore for people who jack off to Brutal Doom" shit sequel version figures.

>>5962983
Not really that similar if you look closely. Although Halo 5 Buck is an okay replacement.for me design wise.

>>5962956
In regards to Metal Gear, I think the pattern is pretty obvious, ninjas, Snakes, and footsoldiers including the Mini. No one knows of side characters form a game, but soldiers there is another market for it.

VAH, are you talking about fucking One Piece? Uh, because that's current? Duh.

Figma I'm not sure who you're on about. Some main guy for a harem anime? Who even cares. Inuyasha? Clothing issue.

Doom 4 is one of the best FPS games I've ever played and easily my GOTY so I understand wanting merch but desu I don't find the Doomguy design from that game very interesting and I'd much rather have a classic Doomguy. And that doesn't seem too out of line with the video game stuff Vulcanlog has in the works, although I guess it's not a Japanese game. The other thing is I'd really want some enemies to go with him, it wouldn't be nearly as fun to have just Doomguy. Idk realistically we'll probably just never get anything besides the ThreeA figure and if we do it'll be something shit like NECA.

>>5962983

Because Yamaguchi is a terrible toy maker. He's like the opposite of McFarlane by making his toys being super duper poseable, but at the same time, designing the toy to only look natural in a couple of poses like a McStatue does. Obvious unsightly joints/gaps are hidden only by angles vs McFarlane hiding it under the sculpt.

>>5964940
Only difference is the paint and accessories.

Yes I say Mini is done since most went the ways of sales, hasn't been one in a long long time and the fact that Yamaguchi has a new line of Revoltechs.

Eh, i only think Yamaguchi is worse because he influences other toys that he doesn't even sculpt. Really good toys, like those TMNT, which got those fuckugly shoulders added on. Fucking retarded. Other sculptors only pollute their own shit.

I was lying, because i dont think McFarlane ever made any McStatues, besides the actual statues from Call of Duty and some other military ones.

There's the Halo figures, but i dont know what scale they are at all. They were before the upscaling, but i dont know their actual size. They're really nice to look at though.

Perfectly in scale with GI Joes and MU figures, even though it's roughly 1:15 or 1:16 scale, but it would look undersized next to Snake knowing how bulky the design is supposed to be.

Those particular guys sucks. No upper arm rotation, you would need to make one or just cut and paste the right arm in that rotation since all you really want is them to hold the gun.

What a waste. McFarlane seems to do stupid shit like that, like lacking one more step.

As far as I understand, the 2 teams of Halo 5 are both missing one last Spartans? Were they exclusives somewhere? Weird.

This is what's wrong with /toy/ today.

You guys need to learn to chill out and quit acting like coddled generation y fags.

no, baby shitposter, picking a non-issue that may be valid for you, and just picking and picking and complaining and whining and bitching and shitposting and crying and picking at it is what is wrong with /toy/

>>5974618
>only positive remarks said over and over are allowed. negative remarks is trolling no matter the reality!
Nevermind the fact that we're only now just seeing IF SpiderMan is able to stand up straight like a healthy male can....

Thank you, Yamaguchi, for showing us that the world is a rainbow with many kinds of people. You truly humble us by showing that even cripples can be Spider-Man.

Also, are you really trying to claim samefag? Like only one person is allowed to ever say something negative and that meets the quota before criticism is considered trolling? Or do you really think only one person thinks he looks like he's geriatric?

>>5974615
>the faggot actually shitting up the thread is complaining about shitposting
yah man, labeling a valid point as shitposting is definitely one way for a retard like yourself to avoid using your peabrain to formulate a response. in fact I bet you do it on other boards too because your mental capacity is constantly challenged. thankfully there were other people in this thread like >>5974545, >>5974516 and >>5974446 who weren't as retarded as you obviously are and can actually articulate a response.

>>5974628
the guy's clearly retarded.

Not to throw in some logical reasoning to this mix, but they are sculpted that way so the body line looks continuous when bending forward, instead of looking like you broke his back at the point of articulation, which most figures do. Our spine don't just bend at one point but curve forward and back, and the Yamaguchi Revos are approximating that with just the single joint. Also like that drawing shows the spine is curved that way to begin with, and you have the comic book muscles added on. Many other figures have backs like that anyways and they don't even have a lower neck joint at times. Do you guys make a bigger fuss with those I wonder?

They are sculpted that way for a reason, they put in some thoughts into these more than most companies tends to do.

>>5974629
>>5974629

That sounds like the Dale Deown school of thought. He liked giant mouths so much that he started drawing characters without them, but even he would still draw humans like they should.
Unlike Yamaguchi and his hunching fetish.

Just because someone puts a lot of thought into it, doesn't mean it's good, muchless praisable.

I agree and I enjoy posing them too. it's basically on the other extreme of the spectrum to your conventional ramrod straight GI Joe figure that looks terrible in most dynamic poses. he just needs to tone down that kyphotic arch a little and find a happy medium so that they don't look like slouches when they're not striking action poses. or look like hunchbacks when they are striking action poses

>>5974635
>another retard who can't read posts describing the fact that the arch is sculpted into the fucking torso
yup, definitely can't make this shit up

>>5974642
spider-man himself is always hunching, doubled over, bent, folded in half, crouching. It's kinda stupid to bitch about it when the character himself calls for such sculpting.

>>5974644
but to the point where he'll look like he's going to be hunched over even in straight up poses?

We've all seen Yamaguchi's failures at not having neutral poses. Like i said in another thread, it's not unlike McFarlane and his McStatues, where the figure is only set up to look good in certian action poses.
I'm not a fan of EXXXTREME posing, especially when the figure can't even line up his legs to his hips.
It's entering deformity territory and that isn't good thing.

>>5974644
not that anon, and I agree that at least for spiderman and his noodly frame it's not as big a deal. shit at least he has lower neck articulation.

>>5974645
what argument, that the issue fucking exists? you're saying that these figures don't have humpbacks? cmon man, don't be disingenuous. at least other anons that stated 'it's style' or 'it's for posing' actually have points, and I wouldn't buy these figures if they weren't valid ones. if your opinion is that you don't care, that's fine, but suggesting that humpback syndrome doesn't even exist is just silly.

>>5974653
>dat fucking neutral pose
jesus don't remind me. I even tried crunching his legs together and straightening the permanent hip thrust.

>>5974655
it's a non-issue you paste eating retard. it's a toy, don't like it? don't get it. Constantly complaining about it won't change anything. Give it up.

>>5974643
Except this all started with the Spider-Man figure where your seeming issue about the arched torso doesn't even look as readily apparent. Hell most of the "curve" is being made by the neck with that Spider-Man figure while the back itself isn't as pronounced as other Yamaguchi figures.

Good job outing yourself though, seems like you're the retard around here after all.

Next thing we know, we'll have retards saying that Spider-Man is a nymphomaniac by the way he's posed with his lower torso pushed forward as if in a perpetual pelvic thrust. >>5974301

>>5974669
except I never argued about spiderman in the first place considering >>5974441 was my first post, that the humpback syndrome is obvious in other figures, and that 'hurr just tilt the neck back DURRRR' is not an option. the only thing that got outed was your inability to follow a simple discussion and the point that this issue is endemic in the line and not an isolated event.
