How can you even complain when your other alternatives are Other M Samus or Jakks Samus? I think the new figure looks great, even if the waist is a bit thin

>>5951881
OHSHIT. Can't believe it, but this makes me want to get a job so I can get these. Figure of my wife GLaDOS when?

>>5951923
Because Other M Samus doesn't look bad. People only dislike that it's not the classic suit and it's from that awful game.

>>5951923
As much as I dislike other m, at least it looks on-model. This is just ugly, like it's wearing droopy armour. I regret passing on the old one all those years ago.

I have feeling the top joint the leads into the chest isn't seated all the way and it creating that gap there. If the chest was pushed down it would fix most of the issue because the torso wouldn't look so long.

>>5951756
I think the arms look too long

>>5951756
But will she have alternate arm cannons?

>>5951756
I'll wait for future pics as it gets further on, but as it sits those proportions are fucked. Way off model.

You act like they are nitpicking when it's literally got massively warped proportions relative to the actual model.

I don't even usually care if proportions aren't spot on, but that is way off.

>>5952025

TP Link looks pretty bad, though. You don't need to be a nintendrone to notice the awkward as fuck proportions.

I have never felt such a variety of mixed feelings this strongly about an anticipated release before.

To begin, that they planned and cane through with releasing a high quality figure of Prime Samus at all is Notting alley of a miracle. All the individual parts also look very detailed so a fair bit of effort has been put into this sculpt.

With that said, just what were they thinking when they decided on these proportions? Who gave the okay for that giraffe NOPE.wmv neck? Who looked at the way the arms hang right past the waist, almost reaching the knees and thought this was okay? And which Nagano fanboy thought that it was okay to rest a gorilla's upper body (which isn't terrible, considering the way Varia suit is portrayed sometime) on a TWIG waist thinner than an her forearms? Just what the hell am I seeing? What kind of feeling are they trying to invoke with this sculpt? Because all I'm feeling is confusion and a strong sense of disappointment.

Hope the torso could be pushed into the chest to look like this. It would be quite nice to have a pull out torso for action poses.

I figured out what's wrong here. Somehow the whole figure is stretched horizontally. I put the photo into gimp and squared it, and it looks so much better. I'm guessing one of three possibilities occured:
>camera resizing error
>image distortion from the glass case
>the prototype was 3D printed with a scaling error

>>5952614
Fuck that could be possible. It would be great if anyone else took pictures of this thing besides this one guy.

>>5952614

> this level of denial

>>5951756
at first it looks like fucking shit.
but in second though, i think the problem for me are the arms, if they can be tucked up, it would look better i think.
hell maybe the arms are extendable.
at least the segmented torso means that i can finally make an accurate screw attack

>>5952676
You can't tell me reducing the height of the image didn't fix 90% of what's wrong with the figure.

>>5952687
I mean, it did, but insisting that it must look like that irl because of some weird camera tricks or printing error is retarded. Just accept the fact that they fucked it a little, maybe it'll turn out better once it's finalized though, just wait and see.

>>5952699
I'm not insisting anything. It could look like that in person, but I wouldn't write off photo distortion until we get some other photos.

Maybe it's soft scale since Samus is 6'3 and most figma school girls are under 5 feet

>>5953832
>This looks huge compared to the stand, was the other m figure this big?

Yes.

>>5953782
>>5953791
>>5953800
it seems that the pauldrons are conected to a figma joint, instead of a ball one like other m samus, probably the arms are conected to another one as well or maybe a new piece with three pegs, giving her a kind of extendable arm/moving pauldron feature.
looking it better i'm starting to accept the waist, and if the arms are working as i think, that could fix the weird long arms.
i'm still cautious though

>>5953909
Yeah as much as I dislike the proportions, it's still the best looking samus figure that exists. Worried about how they'll handle the paint though.

they better goddamn fix that waist holy shit

where is the best place to preorder Figmas????

This would look great if it weren't for that goddamn waist sculpt. It makes the figure look too stylized.

>>5953800
So here's the problem with this figure. THE WAIST

Literally the only thing fucked up besides maybe the arms, but those could just be pulled out/in an unflattering position like figma snake's proportions were.

I mean fuck, the other m figma waist is so much better, hwo do you fuck this up that badly? What are the japs saying about it, do they hate the waist just as much as us?

>>5952932
I never liked the design of this fusion suit, it looks awful, but yeah, opinions...

Check out Tokyo Otaku Mode, especially if you've never bought from them before or have a friend who has who can give you their invite link. That's free shipping, plus 5 dollars in store credit.

so comparing the two, it looks like mayeb the waist being so weird is because it extends to get into action poses? There's a whole section to that midsection that simply isn't there on the original model. Might be like figma snake with the pull out torso joints.

So mayeb that plus the monkey arms going back into the pauldron means this won't be nearly as bad as it looks.

The older suit designs did fine in taking human proportions into consideration. M2 Samus is still the best look after all these years~!

>>5956150
Women don't have a torso nearly wide enough to fit that. I doubt even top male bodybuilders could match those proportions, they'd come up short every time.

This new figure has bad proportions for a human but there's no defending the original design either. A human just would not fit inside the suit, a caricature of a body builder might.

>>5956159
I subscribe to the idea that Samus is either partially turned into energy while in the suit, or there's some physics-warping bird magic that disconnects her shoulders from her torso.

>>5956194
You can totally see in >>5956150
that the arms don't work that way at all.

That old game guide picture is completely changing the suit to try and make sense of it and even then she has a long giraffe neck. Look at where her shoulders are and then look at her neck, she looks like a monster.

rob liefield we talked about this

>>5952614
now it just looks squashed you visual illiterate

>>5956216
except that she uses different hand positions to change beams

>>5956630
If you compare it to the photos we got after the wonky first one, yeah.

>>5956626
Needs more pouches.

Oh, I know and it's usually said in advance. Admittedly, I didn't exactly answer his question so much as say to check out a place with benefits.

But personally all the deals they run end up making them from many to just a few dollars better than buying from anywhere else. I understand some people care less about money and more about getting their package asap though.

Non-canon.

Actually, you can see the bones of her arm when using the X-Ray visor and you can ALSO see her fingers change when you switch weapons.

I don't think ANYONE can argue that the proportions of the suit in relation to the character inside are fucked.

>>5957407
Bird magic invalidates your gif.

>>5957452
And if it was the Other M scale chart posted instead your response would just be "HACKAMOTO RUINED EVERYTHING".

>>5957407
Yet somehow she can roll up in a ball regardless of how size accurate the suit is.

>>5957459
The suit is the least of that game's problems

>>5957459
Except I posted >>5956192 earlier in the thread.

She pretty explicitly turns into energy when she does that in the Prime games.

>>5952076
I mean, I think it's just a pull out torso, since this basically cust out that superflous midsection.....it still looks far too thin however.

Aside from that, the figure looks dandy. Hopefully they fix it before the pre-orders come up.

>>5957655
So you think it's pulled out? Wouldnt that make the arms go even lower? It's definitely not.

>>5957705
Looks like the arms are saggin, like they're at the lowest point.

>>5956933
They do tend to up the prices quite a bit though, I see that their stuff is usually 10-20 dollars more expensive than on Amiami so while you get awesome deals now and then I usually steer clear unless they have REALLY good benefits and incentives.

>>5961318
Right you are.

The only figure from that line of the World of Nintendo that I want to get is the big Metroid figure to displayed along the figmas
How hard it is to find nowadays?

They've messed up Samus' character model for some time now. Not to get on a rant but she's gone from a 6 ft Amazonian to 'ayy lmao' in prime to a little girl in other M.

In my opinion she looked best in Return of Samus art.
