New to the S.A.S. scene, how much are these each on average?
>>
>>6031495
The non-exclusives are 3 to 6k yen or so.

The WF ones or colors that are a bit less readily available, or some other rare releases like Okuyasu are 8k to 13-14k yen.
>>
Wait what?? SAS is back on the Kinniku train? Are there any other ones planned?
>>
>>6031497

WF versions also fluctuate a lot. WF Jolyne and WF Gold Experience Requiem can show up anywhere between 4k to 6/7k, or even 3k at least with WF GER.

Speaking of WF editions, ran into a 6k Koichi/Act 3 WF combo without the soundplate in otherwise great condition on Jungle. Can't believe anytime I see a version with the soundplate it's 3000 yen just for it to be included.

I understand that not having a complete set of everything devalues it for completionists, but I've never been too crazy about having soundplates all over my figures when I display them so I'm perfectly happy with it as is. Jungle has had more and more great prices compared to Mandarake just lurking out of curiosity lately, in case anyone's looking for purple Star Platinum or black Rohan.
>>
>>6031469
That was me. Good shit. Your poses are pretty vanilla but great selection anyways. You need a Wham though.
>>
>>6031557
just curious what makes a pose good and not safe? like I mess around with my figures everyday and I sill can't find a pose I'm happy with and it really bothers me
>>
>>6031584
Avoid being stiff or look like a dumb ballarina dancer. I always tend to tweak poses on a lot of my figures so I understand the issue on never finding a pose that work or satisfies your display idea. The best idea is finding reference material that is beyond the series that figure is from and also understanding the limitations of that figure's articulation so it doesn't look awkard or creates the chance you may ham hand it. Ultimately it's your figures so do what makes you happy with them but if you want to improve poses then search around online for references and test what your figure can do.

Worst case scenario is that figure lacks parts for a display you really want to do like every SHF Ironman for me doesn't have aiming repulsor hands without the peg on the palm so I'm tweaking shit very often with them.
>>
>>6031584
Don't worry about posing being "good" that's subjective just make sure your display makes you happy. I guarantee you some shit poster show up saying your poses are shit. So I'm gonna leave you some tips and constructive criticism.

The best posed displays that I've seen using action figures in general usually have characters in dynamic or static poses which showcase some form of anticipation, reaction or emotion. The best example in your display are your Kira poses. Even though they have a static pose they give off a menacing look. Which is enhanced by the lighting of your photo. The worst posed are Cars, ACDC and Bruno 2nd who all look like they're waiting for something to happen.

Two major flaws with your display is too many characters have balled fists for unknown reasons. Your Okuyasu looks like he just walked out of the bathroom stall after leaving behind a huge dump. If you crouched his legs a bit you could make him look like hes actually excited about something. Could look even better if you posed Josuke accordingly who also has balled fists. Don't use balled fists unless your character is supposed to be pissed, punching or flexing.

Second flaw is a lot of your figures have this weird "I'm jumping for no reason" pose like Trish, Narancia and in some ways Dio. If your stands are hovering it would make much more sense to pose them behind their user (exceptions being KC and WS)

Other than that your display looks good but could use a little work. Don't be afraid to make your figures touch each other or interact with each other.

>>6025456
Good example of a display with 2 figures interacting.

>>6017831
Good example of a dynamic static pose. Despite the characters not doing anything in particular you see how they're posed mid step. It produces an illusion of movement and direction and I highly recommend using this technique.

Get inspired anon.

>>
>>6031734
you got the wrong anon, as far as my posing is concerned to each their own taste I merely showed the guy what I have. for Okuyasu however even in serious situations he still crack his face since he's mostly a comic relief brojo. you should know that already.

The Terraformer store within Rankuten is where I got my 9k WF Killer Queen. Shipping was fast and everything was in order and I usually reference them if I need to find certain items so I trust them among other shops like Mandy.

Not him but I would jump for it. I was a little nervous on the GACT printing on his body being clean enough or have possible QC issues come up due to it but overall from what I've seen and from what I have, White Snake came out pretty good. Also maybe it's just me but White Snake has a nice bulk or size to him that I wasn't expecting but then again I've slowed down SAS collecting and haven't touched much of my collection for reference.
>>
>>6033182
In not sure why you're hesitant on getting stands. They look fantastic when paired up with their user, Whitesnake and Pucci in particular complement each other really well although I understand if it's simply not your thing.
Don't know what your customs fees are and since I live in Australia I don't need to pay GST unless it's over $1000, so if it's pretty expensive for you I'd evaluate how much this hobby means tool you.
>>6033237
Like this anon I can highly reccomend Whitesnake though, the articulation and detail are spot on.
>>
>>6031909
No, figma hands are way larger, and their construction is different. SAS hands have holes that fit onto ball joints on the wrists. Figma hands have hinged pegs that fit into holes on the wrists.
>>
>>6033631
Figma hands changed over to have holes on the hands and ball joints on the wrists now but you are right if that anon wants to use older figma hands for some reason and how it wouldn't work or at least look right.
>>
>>6033237
>>6033280
Nice, i'll just bite the bullet and pay that 22% fee. So, since there's almost no pucci on mandy, what's the cheapest place to get him right now? I'm guessing amiami.

>>6034528
a lot of part 5 figures are cheaper, and apparently so is pucci and part 4 figures go for around the same price everywhere. Maybe a year ago amazon had ridiculously high prices, but now it's all pretty equal now.
>>
>>6034528
also I'm working off amazon.uk maybe there's different prices for different countries?
>>
>>6034446
I appreciate your help dear but the page clearly says the figure is in Japan, which means I'd still be importing from outside the EU, so I'd have to pay customs anyway and it would end up being way more expensive.

Also, for those 135 euros I'm getting both pucci and whitesnake, not sure if that was clear.

Lube up for Medicos to finally finish their pink paint stock. Though I could look through Jojoveller and see other potential WF colors.

>>6034668
I'm still bothered how Medicos did Pucci with his awakened head and a goddamn hat from one of the briefest scenes for it but didn't bother to throw in his original head in some way at release. Though I'm sure Medicos will pull through on the rabbit head for obvious reasons and just maybe throw in the post-rotation head just to give D4C something beyond a set of hands.

and while Valentine is the only JoJo character I'd ever want in pink, I can easily see us getting that but then some ugly color like his pumpkin look rather than his white suit and blond hair look. I also hope the pink Valentine is a soft shade rather than the neon pink they made Giorno.

Christ I hope not, just make him light blue with pink details that match Valentine for the love of God Medicos
>>
>>6034775
The screaming head is bound to happen so I always kept that expected for Medicos releases for 1st's. It's largely accessories I always felt Medicos seems to be a mix bag on since it's either parts your rarely ever use or shit so small that popping the tray becomes a surprise game of finding Kira's watch or Crazy Diamond's glass heart. Pucci and White Snake was okay with the CD's even with the stickers needed but if they were so scene specific with Pucci's hat and not green baby or a cross I was surprised they didn't throw in the pistol White Snake had in Stone Ocean with a hand to accompany it. It's really the oddest thing with them when they deal with JoJo but they went pretty far with Shinichi's release with an alternate arm, hands, and even Migi's and IBM with the 3 heads (even though they expected fans to buy two)
>>
>>6034770
This will never stop bothering me. It was crazy not having the basic head. I hate that we're stuck with the rat tails.
>>
>>6034797
Well they did some other stuff, Diavolo's grinning face is great. I also loke anasui's "what is going on" face.
>>
>>6034836
also, worth noting that Pucci is the only villain that has a generic screaming head. I think Dojyaan head is totally possible, Valentine isn't prone to screaming most of the time.

>worth noting that Pucci is the only villain that has a generic screaming head
Fairly sure that more so has to do with the fact that Pucci was made fairly later on. Being beaten to death by all the generic screaming heads seems to be a recent trend, so there's a fair chance it could continue for Gyro and Valentine.

(Go!Go!Zeppeli head for Gyro or riot)

>>
>>6034973
>clearly says he's grating cheese
I'm so retarded I'm the one who posted this and everything I just assumed he was peeling a potato
>>
>>6034973
What I fully expect Medicos to do is neutral and yelling heads with the major accessory being either one or both hands aimed to fire nail bullets. Beyond that it' up to chance if they go the extra effort instead of the minimum with things such as bullet effects like Mista and packing in Tusk Act 1 to the side with some sort of side arm that attaches to the main arm to have it float near Johnny like SHA for Kira. Medicos will probably save something for his inevitable WF variant but then that becomes a question if they will let us down again like Jolyne with a terrible soundplate choice or shock us like WFGER with the alt Giorno head post-requiem. It's a sort of gamble now

what's stopping Medicos from doing more than one alt head per figure, other than jewery?
>>
>>6035885
Accessories and Heads require different molds, and are expensive. Characters with 3 heads usually lack accessories to compensate, or have a higher price.
Two big heads of simple sculpts is the easiest option, since they can't reuse models for anything except recolors.
Silent head and screaming head are usually the safest options too, and if they spent the time giving everyone a unique head that isn't just screaming, they'd probably face problems.

If you aim to get certain figures at the event like WF exclusive SAS's then your best bet is trying Mandarake within the WF days since people go over there to pick up and sometimes sell at Mandy stores and it shows up within the site. I know for more trickier orders like garage kits you may need a proxy to go to the actual event or find a site that offers sale for WF kits.

WF SAS do end up in AmiAmi's preowned spot but if you want them soon then go Mandy within the time frame and be ready to order if you don't mind the initial costs for being WF exclusive and being early sales. Oddly enough WF GER broke my expectations seeing he came with an alternate head and he sort of came down in price in a few months from certain stores.
>>
>>6036327
Also I forgot, if you have a solid proxy and can deal with the fees you can also take a shot in YAJ since I've seen WF SAS's pop up pretty fast there within the days WF goes on.

couldn't they be holding off a Diavolo recolor to put out a Doppio later on tho? Part 4's anime is wrapping up and next year is Jojo's 30th anniversary, so I suppose a Part 5 anime is gonna come, maybe they do Doppio to hype it up or something

Medicos hasn't done a new figure proper after finishing a part only to add a new character to the old lineup. If they finished a part then any chance of a new character is dead like Foo Fighters since they are doing Part 7 now for the JJBA line.

If or when we get a anime adaptation of Part 5 then they will do recolors and reissues for a line with already cheap characters for 2nd hand.

Rohan is Rohan given his status and Part 4 gives them a reason to do a new one since they did a new sculpt with his Highway Star outfit in 2012.

I've been fairly realistic with this company now so I might as well say chances for a Doppio is very low whereas a Part 5 anime would give a reason to recolor Diavolo (not unless they really want to kick us in the nuts and just reissue him 2x over and leave it at that)

>Medicos hasn't done a new figure proper after finishing a part only to add a new character to the old lineup.
While this is true, we should consider that Medicos is now getting to the final parts of the series. After they finish with essentials of SBR and JJL, I don't think it's impossible that they decide to revisit the earlier parts. Also, the line started in the 25th anniversary, wasn't it? Not saying I'm sure it's gonna happen, but I think it's good to keep these things in mind and don't completely discard possibilities.

How does the Lottery work online?

Do you purchase a chance and go there to get one of the 500?
>>
>>6036886
For the Swarovaski SAS? You have to be physically at the event after buying the WF figure. There is usually a ticket within (I know one of my WF figures has one)

I'm just going by memory but I think you submit the ticket and you get a number and they roll the one that gets the chance to buy the figure. Wond mentioned 2 WF's ago a guy behind him in line actually scored the winning number after his was rejected.

The only other way to get those during WF's days is probably knowing a guy to go there and pick it up for you if he someone rolls the winning number.

Not unless there's a new Lottery system I missed out on.
>>
>>6036950
>For the Swarovaski SAS?
For the Pucci and Baoh on the medicos shop
>>
>>6036950
There are two lotteries, one is a tombola system. The first 300 people get to play. White ball means you lost, gold ball means you win. That's what Wond was talking about, and the system he eventually won through.

The ticket you're taking about is a separate lottery. At the end of the day Medicos post up a list of numbers at their booth. You have one of those numbers on your card and you're a winner.
>>
>>6036666
Not really toy-related, but what came first - Baoh or the Guyver?

Both feature a high-school kid getting turned into a blue-tinted alien death machine with extendible arm blades and a glowy thing in their forehead, then having to fight for their life against an evil corporation/government agency. Was it just complete coincidence or did one "borrow" from the other?
>>
>>6036959
What the hell are you even talking about? First off Baoh and Pucci aren't on any kind of lottery system, second of all you buy them through Japanese retailers not the company's site. Did you even bother to read the OP if you're that clueless?

There are no fucking words to describe how angry I am right now. There is zero chance of getting this figure for a reasonable price now. I think Medicos is really going to die soon and if they don't they really deserve to after this bullshit. I won't be buying anything else they release unless Baoh becomes a normal release.

>>6037066
It's a WF exclusive, the 500 are pre event sales.

The fact it's an exclusive at all though is fucking hilarious.

I waited over a month for my Kira and Killer Queen 2nd to get in with SAL shipping; someday very soon you'll see it show up halfway across the states in Bumfuck, Idaho and crawl to you within a week.
>>
>>6037087
That is unusual that they'd bother to make a whole new mold just for an exclusive figure.
>>
>>6037123
Yup, first time they've ever done it, which makes it all the more funny (and rage inducing for some).

I was gonna skip WF this year but I'll go after all just to pick him up.
>>
>>6036989

Poor Okuyasu and Koichi. Both got released over 5-6 years ago and never got a reissue since. At least Koichi's are still somewhat decently priced...
>>
>>6037127
I wonder if it's because of budget reasons (limit production to an event only release) or just because they choose to for some bizarre reason. Guess this Winter WF is Baoh hunting now instead of the recolor runs.
>>
>>6037150
Well that black Pucci is also a WF so you'll still have your recolour!

His original colors are way, way better, so this is gonna collect dust unless it comes with something really bitchin.

I'm actually not interested this go around. I've been mostly consistent on collecting WF SAS (WF Johnathan really stood out after the Jolyne blunder) but WF Pucci's color isn't standout for me now but his status will probably make him above average on Mandarake once the initial pricing goes down or if they begin to fill up shelves and sell slowly. Wouldn't really feel bad missing him, Medicos should've threw in Green Baby to give him a little more reason to buy him.
>>
>>6037184
See that's what I felt. Maybe it's a new tactic if the new IP figures just aren't selling because they really took a chance with a manga Shinichi and not using his anime appearance or that triple shot release with Tokyo Ghoul.
>>
>>6037087
huh, little early for wonfest shit isnt it? That's lke 3 months away.

Either way I dont care, baoh is not a great manga and not a great design.
>>
>>6037204
It'd be nice if they just stuck to one IP instead of branching out so much. My guess is the Kinnikuman figures weren't selling that well so they stopped those and started on JoJo which is pretty hot right now what with the anime and two full length figther games.

Who knows though, maybe they're stalling due to the Yen price as compared to the dollar. Everyone's saying it will go way over 100 in 2017. They thought the earthquake would bring it down but no such luck, that only strengthened it even further. Been teetering on 90 for a while now.

Take that with a grain of salt though, I'm just going by stuff I've read. Have no idea what their Japan sales are like compared to other countries.

Medicos have been pretty good about this recently, making announcements for WF months in advance. Agreed though it is quite early. Prior to this I think they have made announcements maybe a month and a half from the event.
>>
>>6037220
>My guess is the Kinnikuman figures weren't selling that well so they stopped those and started on JoJo which is pretty hot right now what with the anime and two full length figther games.

They had committed to Jojo way before its renewed popularity peaked or said games were even a concept. Jojo has always been a strong property. While the same can be said for Kinnikuman, the fan community must have just had a like warm reception to them, while the Jojo fan base were all up for figures.

Much in the same way that the One Piece fan base have shown preference towards statues over possible figures, which is why the Figuarts Zero line initially did phenomenally well.

Literally who wouldn't assume that you weren't paying for the toy?

Regardless, I don't really understand the motive here if you'd pay for it anyway. Is shipping the SAS to your aunt just cheaper for you? Does it help avoid customs issues?

I've bought two SAS off amazon, Giorno and Mista, and while the Giorno one came within 2 weeks and was perfect, the Mista one never came and it took me basically threatening the seller for me to get my money back, I even waited 2 months for it to arrive so I wasn't being unreasonable but the seller kept trying to blame me and a lot of times I emailed them I just got an automated response. That seller even had like 90% positive reviews so I thought I was going with a reliable option. I've heard other anons have gotten broken figures, but that could happen with Amiami and Mandy just as easily so I wouldn't write off amazon completely if it's what suits you.

Don't be dicks. It's not a massive bargain but it's still a pretty good rate for the pair. Clear The World goes for around 50,000yen, and while you can find clear Killer Queen for around 120,000, it's still tricky with many places still posting him for 200,000yen or thereabouts. Factor in shipping + exchange rate and $1650 isn't bad at all.

>>
>>6039992
From what I've seen the Black Version is usually cheaper than the White but sometimes they're priced the same when they're the same condition (around Β₯7000). Both are on Mandarake for around Β₯6000. I own both but I would personally go with the Black Version because of the Heaven's Door piece.

>So, what's everyone's favourite Sas figures
Joseph 2nd. Favorite Jojo and an all around decent figure. Not usually a fan of greens but his go quite well. Plus the extra head gives it an edge over 1st.
>Post collections
Not really much update because of really slow releases. I have to resist going back and buying figures I'm not really that into just because there's nothing new to flesh out the collection with.

Aijin/IBM

Give the lanky nature of this guy combined with the 3 different heads and sheer height over everyone else and I feel this one of Medico's best releases and I've been collecting the JJBA line for a few years now. The long limbs and double jointed areas give him strong range of movement. What helps is the largely non-messy design that isn't hindered by shoulder armor, waist pieces, and other such assortments that is usually found on the usual JJBA stand design and the sculpting is pretty nice on this one also for something simple. Gave me hope that Medicos can perform outside of JJBA but Tokyo Ghoul really hurts that now.

Anyway I really, really recommend him as a sort of figure to test poses and display ideas.

Only have 6 figures currently (7 if you count a loose Heaven's Door), but my favorite is Highway Star Rohan. The alternate "daga kotowaru" face makes it for me. Had one of the Ajin's a while back before I gave it to my brother, who's a bigger fan of the series. That one was probably more fun to mess around with, but only because it felt like a blank slate figure.

Mista and KQ are tied for close second. I thought I'd like Kira more because of his accessory count, but the lack of smug smirks among the three heads is disappointing.

>but Tokyo Ghoul really hurts that now.
true but Kaneki is just fine. It's just the prior two that sucked dick.

And yeah, both Shinichi and the IBM are great. Wish they had made a version that was a bit more like the mummy look of the IBM though. With more lose bandages, some bony interior, etcetera, rather than just the "lanky human wrapped in bandages" look.

WF Joseph is one of my favorites, as cliche as it is. All of the part 2 figs are fantastic, but the color variation from the solid blues on top if his great engineering and varied accessories wins if for me.

Part 4 SP is probably my second favorite for how well-engineered he is, but he feels awkward as a standalone display piece without Jotaro.

Do you have more or do you dislike Stardust Crusaders?

damn those prices tho
really missed out... Should have starting collecting i found about SAS.. Really fucked around and only started when part 6 were made
>>
>>6041446
The special colors will probably screw you the most but sites like YAJ will probably make a deal or two come around for stuff like Kira 2nd.

Okuyasu is what seems to escape people the most it seems though. 1st colorways of Kira, Killer Queen, Josuke, and Crazy Diamond shouldn't present a challenge if you stalk long enough.
>>
>>6041450
ya Okuyasu will be a hard pill to shallow if i can't find a good deal
>>
>>6041473

Pink Okuyasu and Killer Queen 2nd were the hardest on me, the rest I've gotten were completely normal prices +/-$10 or so.
>>
>>6041484
>Bought KQ 2nd for $50 when the anime had just started airing

Still higher than from what I heard it was but I see it posted for ~$100 now and it's still being bought up almost instantly

They put SAS on sale in the past, i'd wait on it. They aren't going anywhere most likely.

>>
>>6041616
remember, even if they do reissues. it's going to be more expensive than when it was before. considering the white kira when it first came out it was atleast 3900 jpy after the reissue it surge to 5900 jpy. so be realistic now lol.
>>
>>6041619
Yeah I guess I'll wait. Might as well say goodbye to the shit in my warehouse until January hopefully
>>6041642
What I meant was more in the line of the figures that are already there getting cheaper or at least give me store credit for the one I'm planning to buy

Wanted part 5 figures BAD when i started reading it especially when the gang was messing around but after reading the ending... pretty disappointing.
Welp at least that will save me a good 400 + dollars

So the numbers for Baoh and Pucci WF exclusives have been announced.

There's only going to be 1000 of each at the venue (plus the 500 from the online lotto). Compare that to the 3000 + 500 that we usually see for SAS WF exclusives and I'd wager that most of us are pretty fucked. I can see both going for 10k+ on the aftermarket.
>>
>>6041671
Officially boycotting Medicos. Will buy what I need to complete my collection off the aftermarket then i'm done. Barely missing anything so might as well get the remaining few.
>>
>>6041672
I'm sure they're really sad to lose one customer. You remind me of those people who boycott/quit WoW.

>>
>>6041677
>I'm sure they're really sad to lose one customer.
They are losing one customer who bought DOUBLES of every release except the ones I missed before starting my collection. It's probably easily 150+ figures, I lost count. I guarantee i'm not the only one getting fed up with their BS as of late. So yeah I think they'd probably not prefer losing someone who isn't just buying a few figures as a gimmick or only collecting specific parts, stands or characters.
>>
>>6041603

Nice price! So happy I got all the Part 5 figures I want already now; I wonder what the anime will do to those figure prices?
>>
>>6041682
>i hope they keep making more stuff for part 6 tho
>WF pucci is a good sign

Dude, WF exclusives are never an indication whatsoever. All they've basically done is go through their past releases and just take a protag/antag or their stand that hasn't had a WF exclusive yet and make one of that. The main exception being Okuyasu, but that was a one off due to the anime and lack of a pink oku to go with the other two.

I could have told you for free that Pucci was a surefire bet for an exclusive as he was the most recent antag released. Same case with PB Dio last event. It was gonna be either him or Diavolo, or at a push maybe a Stone Free or Whitesnake.
>>
>>6041686
You're still less than 0.01% of their customer base. They don't give a fuck.
>>
>>6041690
welp that's disappointing
idk why Medicos started picking up other licenses before finishing off their JoJo figures.
now the focus is on expanding other lines rather than making more SAS for jojo.
Were jojo SAS not selling well?
I swear the anime did fucking wonders for their sales.
if part 5 is being planned to be animated why not just keep making more jojo figures and just profit off the Hirohiko Araki train
also i know nothing about the internal workings of a toy company so i'm just talking out of my ass
i just like jojo and SAS

Swarovarski The World. Those SAS's get special boxes. Medicos does this every so often for WF and the usual aftermarket on them is really up there. I even remember an AmiAmi listing crystal Gold Experience for 183k (yes that much but that's on AmiAmi's idea of aftermarket on that particular Swarovarski SAS)

The gold plate came from the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle Limited Edition with an etching of Giorno and Gold Experience in the new art if I remembered right.

Not that guy...but they don't make very many of them which is why prices are insane. The actual cost of the Swarovarski special editions at WF is much lower, around 30-40k yen. Good luck getting them for that price though.

Granted you can only get them through a lottery at WF and avoid that nutty price tag but that's on luck.

Here's the MFC listing on this one: http://myfigurecollection.net/item/381852

The Clear SAS's are generally a "cheaper" end of the super limited SAS line with The World being 50k or so and Killer Queen taking the top spot.

I don't have the shots but you have obscenely obsessive fans with deep pockets. There's one guy who would go to WF and directly buy the Swarovarski's and other limited SAS off people and he entire display cabinets are filled to the brim with JJBA merch from a ton of SAS's to those exclusive watches that would cost an arm (at least to me)

Not even going into the guy who buys 2 or every SAS to make the "perfect" one though taking parts.

Generally this is my idea of endgame collecting for the line if I ever have the income. Otherwise you need to know someone that could hook you up on a deal.

There's two ways you would get it. The first is to straight off buy it, it was sold for about 3000yen several years ago in a built-it-yourself pack. Second way is from the DVD that came with the first collection book (that came with DIO awakened 2nd). It was a PDF on that you had to print out yourself.

This makes sense since Baoh can be skipped by the anime fans, and is only for the more real collectors/5 people who read/watched baoh before ASB. Pucci's default colors are also the near definitive ones too.
But this is worrysome if it's a sign of Medicos going downhill financially, which would match with their huge price markups since last year.

Super late answer, but both.

You can easily piece together why most of this stuff isn't with the main group, but as for Crusaders, both SP colors I like are pricey, Joseph is always sold out, I don't like Avdol's colors and Polnareff looks like straight ass. They're just on the bottom of my priority list, but I'll probably get them eventually.
>>
>>6044199
>>trying to cut back on my figure buying

>>6044980
They should probably think about redoing Stardust Crusaders, or at least some of the Stardust Crusaders figures, like Polnareff.

Then again, they'd probably end up horribly out of scale with part 4, 5 and 6 like the part 1 and 2 figures.

>>
>>6045255
It's a non-jojo figure, and would only be wanted by the people who checked out Baoh before Araki made Jojo.
If it had a standard release, it would 100% shelfwarm. They wanted to avoid that, and you can't really blame them since they've had to markup prices through the years, and releases have been sloppier anyway.
>>
>>6045465
Wow, check out Mr Pessimistic here. They won't be around forever, but they certainly aren't going to fold as fast as you say they will.
>>
>>6045255
Baoh is only know by like hardcore Araki fans so there isn't as much demand for it to get its own line of figures. More than likely they'd lose money if they did a full release and that's why they did a limited release.

Just the sad truth. Drifters, Tokyo Ghoul, Parasyte, RWBY, and Ajin are still popular so in their eyes that warrants a full release. I don't know what the deal with JoJo is...maybe they do need more funds than this anime is accumulating and decided to do something different while putting JoJo on the backburner for a while.
