Are Guttou Kurus any good? They do characters nobody else seems to do (Noriko Takaya, some of the Transformers humans, even the Dirty Pair IIRC) but nobody seems to mention them much around here. I know they're at a funny scale but that doesn't bother me so much. Do they suffer from QC issues?

The company that makes them died.
I have the Major GK. She's heavy and her joints are slippery and weak, making her a chore to pose. The stand she comes with is not very useful. Her arm pegs will slip right out of her arm. She can look good with a lot of effort, but overall I'd say I regret the purchase.
>>6077706
I have Minelba/Minerva, she's okay. But yeah, the big thing is that the company died.
I brought all the Precure ones because I'm a sucker and they're shit
>>6077706
I have Noriko and she is a great figure, no complaints from me
What scale are these figures at?
>>6077736
I like mine. The stand is ass though

Fucking weebs adding the u where it doesn't belong.

Gttou?

About 1/9, aren't they?
>>6077712
How much did you spend on it and how tall is it next to some Figma and other figures?
>>6077712
Not to mention they came up with the most convoluted neck assembly ever, and the way her feet are sculpted you can't move them forward at all. One of the most disappointing toys I ever purchased.
They look really good but they're kinda shitty figures.
It still hurts.

>The likeness to the characters are pretty ass on those
Better than the Figuarts, at least.

>Better than the Figuarts, at least.
If you compare it with the very first Cure Figuarts I can understand because they were terrible, but you can't seriously tell me that the Guttokuru Max Heart Cure Black looks more accurate to the source material than the figuarts. The face is completely wrong and looks absolutely nothing like Nagisa.

Their Shiny Lumonious looks even worse

Can you take a picture? I just want to see your collection. Hard to find pictures of Precure stuff.

These are the only four that aren't boxed up, and even they don't have the articulation to do the exact poses from the last episode (Middle of the night so I shit lighting as well)
I keep them out because when the fuck are all four ever going to get figures again.
The S*S ones all actually have really good sculpts, but even on Michiru and Karou where they have simple-ass dresses, the articulation is limited and my Bright and Windy have shitty QC.
>>6080322
It terms of the other ones from what I remember:
Black can't keep her waist together
White's legs are far too lose
One of Luminous' ponytails broke but she actually looks kinda cute with just one
Bloom and Egret turned out fine
The 5s are the best in terms of looks and quality but I don't care for the seasons outside of Milk enough to have kept them out

>I keep them out because when the fuck are all four ever going to get figures again.
You seem oblivious about pic related. They were revealed a month ago.
>>6080342
It's Bandai though, don't just assume they'll come out
>>6077706
They're big, expensive and shit.
No wonder the company died
>>6085116
>I like their Yes 5 sculpts better than Bandai's, though.
The Bandai Yes! 5 ones are terrible, thank god they improved substantially since then. They should release new versions of those, I'm sure that they would surpass the Gutto Kuru ones.
>>6079969
I want these so bad. Are these basically impossible to find now?
>>6086075
They are impossible to find, period. The company died before they had a chance to release them.
