ITT: Things that are cursed to never get good figures

If we ever get Chrono Trigger figures it's going to be fucking Play Arts Kai, and I'm sure if we even get that there will be some fucking reason for them to be redesigned by Nomura or something and be nothing like Toriyama's art style

Darkstalkers.

I'm not going to /thread myself, but... I mean, come on.
>>
>>5976109

I wonder what the best toy company to do Darkstalkers would be if we lived in a fantasy world where that could happen

Maybe Medicos?
>>
>>5976111

For that matter, who would ideally do Chrono Trigger?

The DBZ figuarts are okay, and getting better, but there's always been something kind of shit about them and sometimes it's hard to pin down exactly what it is. Maybe figma would do the best job? They usually nail anime in general better than Figuarts.
>>
>>5976111
Medicos would be a solid choice from an aesthetic point of view. Accessories would also look nice and would have a bit of innovation in how they're implemented. A Lord Raptor from them would probably be one of the finest toys ever made.

Bandai gets a little too focused on swappable faces and redundant hands which to me are second fiddle to actual real accessory content. They'd be far behind Medicos to me.

God, imagine how cool Square Enix having their own action figure company would be if it wasn't complete fucking trash

Would pay $90 Eagledollars for.

Revoltech. Fighting game characters with pretty expressive poses practically beg for it.

Recettear is a nine year old indie doujin game that, to my knowledge, didn't even do particularly well in its home country. Outside of a surprise sequel that also does extremely well, it's never ever for every line.

But holy shit would I fucking adore a Recette figma. She could come with a register stand and a walnut bread.

I'd love some Nier figures. Though, knowing my luck if they were made, it would only be Brother Nier and not Papa Nier. But if I at least got Kaine, it would be fine.

Barely any Resident Evil figures either.

I feel like I'm the only one who adored this series. It's a manga classic that got overlooked just because it was published in the same magazine as a bunch of cliche shonen crap. Figma of these characters would be a dream come true

Not even saying the helmets and armours from those need to be compatible, but come on. I've had a Figuarts wield Pankraz's Sword before, it was a perfect fit.

This is what has made me consider learning to custom.

We're almost close to V with figma Yoshihiko on the way.

Steven Universe, Adventure time, Over the Garden Wall, Megas XLR, other good western cartoons

Well, Megas XLR was good.

>>5976117
>there's always been something kind of shit about them
Head sculpts are pretty bad most of the times, has this weird style to them that does not follow any particular art style. It`s weird because other anime properties and even other DB toy lines seem to do better in general.
>>
>>5977417
>talking shit about Adventure Time and Over the Garden Wall

Fuck off.

So i'm guessing you haven't seen OTGW?
>>
>>5977332
Diamond Select is making them. They've confirmed a shared total of something like 22 figures between Kill Bill and Pulp Fiction. As long as their end product is Jay and Silent Bob/Gotham-tier and not Ghostbusters-tier we should have some cool shit.

Slayers.

I think high-fantasy in general lacks action figures. I welcome anything 90's really.

I think that was GSC's attempt at doing DQ by means of legal loop holes, just like how they did KR Dragon Knight. They could never do the actual property so they go for the closest thing.

I said Megas XLR was good.

Recettear was fun for an hour or so but gets old pretty fast. There is no way its ever gonna get figures.

I would fucking kill for these two, some of my favorite designs in any manga or anime.

Rest are shit but OTGW is legitimately one of the best cartoons made in the last twenty years.
>>
>>5977503
Yeah, but you haven't watched the others, so you just fell on the "calarts modern cartoons suck XD" meme.
Adventure Time has shit reputation, but up to season 4 it's really good and some episodes like Puhoy are far above most western cartoons.
Over the Garden Wall is just great tasting shit all over your mouth and eyes.

Yep. Keep in mind though: they're WAY the fuck away from release, because DST has stated they're not going to put them out until they have every last fucking one of them locked, approved, and ready to role by the licensor with no hiccups in release schedule.

Rad. Surprised they went with Marsellus over Vincent for the first series.

>>5977763
I don't remember seeing confirmation that they had rights to John Travolta's likeness. Not to scare anyone, but just saying.

Skullgirls. I'd buy literally anything. Figma, Figuarts, Revoltech...Fuck, I'd buy fucking NECA figures at this point.

Speaking of fightan games, Soul Calibur needs Figuarts or something.
>>
>>5977788
That other company got it for the 12-inch talking one so at least we know it's not impossible.
>>
Lobo. Well we did get an excellent one from Mattel but it was SDCC only and you must sell an organ to buy it now so it almost doesn't count. The old DC Direct version was a bit crud, the DCAU character model was crap and made for an awful toy, and no there is no plush toy, you imagined that. Sideshow's upcoming version looks fucking terrible.

Lobo deserves good toys. If that piece of shit Deadpool can get good toys, a better character deserves them.

>>5977398

No one with taste cares about Earthbound. It's only the nostalgia goggles people and the Undertale losers who care. Even Nintendo barely gives a shit.

I agree. I think the most obvious route for a figure of him will be through DCC. They've expand the animated line more than any other and dumped so much resources into it, so it would make sense that from there they'd ma-
