Previous thread: >>6065828
So It's the Gappy figure good?
gotta polish off the part 5 figures i want
>>6091580
his face is wrong
>>6091616
the face doesnt look like gappy in the manga. its not even really close.
>>6091582
who you looking for?
>>6091630
just need ge, ph, and moody.
>>6091644
damn i was gonna try to pawn some off on you.
>>6091645
whatta ya sellin?
>>6091652
just diavolo right now.
>>6091655
one of the few i have for part 5
>>6091623
>>6091616
Gappy 1.5/2 when?
>>6091560
Where did the heads come from?
>>6091839
Looks like the Real Action Heroes JoJos.
>>6091856
I think they're from the nendo-like things.
Does anyone have any experience with painting figures and is willing to share some tips? I've almost totally given up on getting a Kira 2nd for a reasonable price, I feel it's be easier to just paint the white version blonde. How do I not fuck this up?
>>6091979
Definitely that not, they are more cartoony and aren't hollow
>>6092023
wouldn't you be more pissed you wasted x amount of dollars trying to repaint something you know will come out shitty? just go another week without food.
>>6091979
It's RAH, the headsculpt is too detailed whereas those chibi figures have a simpler design to them.
http://myfigurecollection.net/item/13449
>>6092047
But anon, I'd be spending ~$200 if I waited
>>6092088
Not really. Have a figinstock set up on sold out listings on Mandy, lurk YAJ with a reliable and affordable proxy, go beyond and use Jungle/Rankuten: Terraformer. At most a Kira 2nd should set you back 8 or 9k if you want him that bad but with an effective search setup you should get him for a decent price without even breaking $100 before shipping. There is a bit of luck to be had if a store decides "fuck it" and sell him at 4k but it's a matter of keeping an open eye when you can. Even AmiAmi does some solid sales every so often (managed to nab a 4k Satzbatz Knight figma that sells for 9k regular on Mandarake at the time) or even a 8.5k WF Joseph that managed to pop up on Mandy one fateful night.
Now if you live somewhere that customs makes the order jump quite a bit then I won't blame you. If you are serious on doing a custom then something like Vallejo paints could work for an SAS paintjob.
>>6092108
Whoa, thanks a lot man. I'll definitely get this set up, I appreciate it
>>6092122
Also rule of thumb for Figinstock, sometimes emails that they send to tell you that your requested listing just stocked up are placed into spam folders so check your entire email folders for it. I've counted a couple of emails being there whereas others popped up on my main inbox.
>>6092122
It would probably be worth it considering an unopened Kira 2nd was up on Mandy for $100 for at least an hour last night
>>6091623
Nah, it's close.
Is there anyway to get the Josuke head that comes with Crazy Diamond Second besides buying Crazy D?
>>6092464
The possibility exists but you're far more likey need to buy WF Crazy Diamond for it on Mandy. Maybe lurk YAJ and see if someone is willing to part with just the head on a listing. It's just one of those deals where you may bite the bullet if you want that head.
I usually collect Figmas but after watching Part 4 I was fucking impressed with Bites the Dust. Now I want to hunt down a figure of Killer Queen/Kira but he seems to be quite popular and difficult to find online.
My question is this. I live in Asia in a very Japan-centric country so it's possible for me to find SAS figures here. So how should I go about finding local stores that sell SAS in hopes of finding what I'm looking for?
>>6092665
What Japan-centric country? You're either living in Japan, or not. Stop being pretentious and spill out which 3rd world country you're from. Then maybe we could help.
>>6092675
Taiwan. The country used to be occupied by Japan so it ended up taking lots of cultural influence from them including weeabooism.
>>6092677
>used to be occupied by Japan so it ended up taking lots of cultural influence from them
As do 2/3 of Asian countries back in 20th century.
I'm so Japanese, I shit ramen.
>>6092681
Unlike most of them Taiwan actually does attempt to duplicate japan a lot. The rest still bear a grudge or don't really give much of a shit anymore.
Main reason is that back when Japan took over Taiwan was an uncivillized 4th world shithole. They turned it into a slightly more civillized 3rd world shithole (which it still is today) before pulling out so the country basically owes Japan a lot for its basic infrastructure.
Either way that was just giving context as to the fact that it is possible for me to get SAS locally. No need to be a dick about it. Just answer the question or don't contribute at all.
>>6092683
tl;dr, don't care: So NOT Japan. You're just an inferior gaijin like the rest of us. Got it. Sorry, but Taiwan is too not-Japan to have any reliable stores to stock SAS figures for casuals. Your best bet is to get them from online stores like the rest of us. Or you could try eBay. Happy hunting.
>>6092697
Hmm, but most online stores are either sold out or asking for insane prices (I'm not going to pay ¥10,000 for a single 1/12 figure). What are the chances of a reissue or the prices eventually going down?
>>6092425
mhm ok bud.
>>6092697
Don't be mean. He clearly wants to humble brag about how close to Japan he is and how it makes him Japanese.
>>6092088
lol guy10k kira is at exchange rate now only 87$ snipe it off mandarake or whatever same price for killer queen 2nd if you want to do auction there's yahoo japan you could probably see atleast one at ebay for 100-150$ atleast you got everything colored from purple suit to blonde hair, than just having blonde hair, white suit looks disgusting.
>>6092721
Sorry but nope. It was just explaining context. I don't really like this country but at least it's possible to find anime figures here so I was wondering if anyone could point me towards any methods I could use to locate stores that have a good chance of selling what I want.
>>6092725
$87 is still pretty expensive, I'm not sure if I'm willing to pay that much for a single figure. Is this normal in SAS or are Kira and KQ exceptional?
I guess with enough patience I could try but this is rather annoying.
>>6092727
well for white kira it's already 40$ lol I don't see any reissues soon for blonde and kq pink. and every time those 2 are up they get sold out in less than an hour at 10k so I don't see prices on mandarake or jungle going down. best bet is on yahoo auctions if no one bids more than 10k which is rare now. last time I saw one on ebay in a couple of weeks ago it sold at 135$ when it was auctioned for 10$.
>>6092730
So looks like this is going to be a long and difficult find.
Best I can do is keep a lookout and hope for the best then.
>>6092732
yeah even on yahoo auctions man there's none of Blonde and Pink KQ on the listings only seeing white KQ which atleast getting 6k bets lol...

Holy fucking shit thank you
>>6092751
copped, thanks anon
>>6092755
better cop now anon, looks like the price goes up slightly when a purchase is made. bought it at 12k, price jumped to $115 afterwards
Could someone that owns Gio 2nd, GE and WF GE post them together? Please?..
Anybody wants this? > http://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/?page_id=121&id=1728645

Is this what true emptiness feels like?
>>6092805
He's coming, just wait on him since Medicos is underway on SBR. I'm sitting in the same situation as you but it's a waiting game now.
>>6092802
Sure, I'll snap one for you later today.
How's Rohan 3ver?
hey my christmas homos showed up.
shoutout to the mailman who forgot to put these on a truck this morning but drove over here on his own time to personally deliver them.
>>6093048
damn, they look fantastic together, I regretted getting Gio for second seeing this
>>6093064
It's nice that they're close to the same size too, they're dwarfed by my burly British men.
DEIGO WHEN
VALENTINE WHEN
HOL HORSE WHEN
DOPPIO WHEN
SILVER CHARIOT REQUIEM WHEN
>>6093073
Valentine was announced in the last thread. Stop with this and just give up on shit like Doppio or other the other smaller villains ever happening. Medicos aims with protagonists, allies, and then main villains.
Shit, I want Diego but who knows if Medicos wants to push him later on or pass him over to Di Molto Bene for a statue release.
>>6093064
> Gio Second**
>>6093078
Doppio is a main villain tho
>>6093080
I know that and I worded that a little off but smaller villains never get a SAS treatment and usually get passed off to Di Molto Bene. I'm just getting tired of seeing posts asking for stuff like this now since Medicos follows a rule for SAS character releases in JJBA. It's the same for the eventual SBR anons who worry that we won't see Johnny but we have an announcement months back with him and Gyro. Now we have a Gyro prototype we can wait on Johnny for next year at either this WF or next.
>>6093087
>who worry that we won't see Johnny
These are the worst. Yes, medicos will surely fucking skip the MC, which they have already confirmed months ago.
I'm just worried the line will end up being just Johnny, Gyro, Valentine and their stands, that would be really boring.
So I'm travelling and I brought Josuke with me. Today is raining and I'm home. I did a few shoots of him.
2/2
>>6092717
Do these ever get reissues?
>>6092481
Damn that sucks, I really don't have the room for another Crazy Diamond. I hope I can get it for a good price then if I decide to buy him.
>>6093245
Only the 1st versions. 2nd and 3rd's are kept as a one shot release with Medicos popping up a new colorway for certain characters rather than reissuing desirable 2nd and 3rd colorway releases.
At the very least some select choices are placed in backorder like Ceasar 2nd but desired SAS and their variants are usually found aftermarket.
>>6092803
It's awfully tempting, but I don't like the look of blue KQ. The head is really the only alluring thing here for me.

Well I'm officially in this slippery slope.
If the other releases are as good as this ones I'll be happy
>>6093535
I definitely recommend Joseph he is great and loaded with accessories.
The sale that Hlj had was a godsend snatched those guys, Crazy Diamond, Star Platinum, Jotaro and Josuke beating myself because I didn't buy Mistah
Kira was already in the warehouse so I'm just deciding if I should buy Killer Queen in Hobby or Amiami.
Currently eyeing Zeppeli and Gappy with soft and wet though I heard Soft and wet is not that good and Part 5 stuff might as well be prepared to buy those
Slippery as fuck
What kind of Non-SAS accessories do you guys use? Any good bundles? Running out of good poses.
>>6093569
Soft & Wet's only issue its has shoddy articulation, but it looks lovely and at least the Stand doesn't get into many unorthodox poses anyway.
>>6093535
Thank you. I use a Nikon D3100.
>>6092818
>>6092802
As promised. If you want more I'll gladly post more tomorrow.
>>6093605
Tamashii lightning effects helped my Part 1 setup. Also Tamashii explosion effects for Kira and Killer Queen for obvious reasons.
Is there anyway I can cop a loose Heaven's Door? I just got Rohan Ver 2, and would love an HD to go with him, but it's fucking retarded if I have to blow 5-7k yen on another Rohan I don't even want just to get it.
>>6094023
Heaven's Door isn't a "special" item (such as KQ 3rd's extra hand and Kosaku head), so you'd probably have to stalk YAJ or other auctions.
Even then, I think you'd probably be more likely to find a loose Rohan+HD for cheap(er) than HD on its own.
>>6093605
Trying to find something that could act as a good bubble effect for Killer Queen with Stray Cat. Probably just some small iridescent glass sphere.
>>6094259
just look for glass marble they have a very small version that is the size of Stray Cat bubble.
>>6094606
>>6094259
So, were Dio's balls full of Jonathan's cum? Is Giorno actually Joseph's uncle?
>>6094895
Ask /a/
>>6094897
i wouldn't wish /a/ on my worst enemies
>>6094902
The shitposting general is all that's left really for any JJBA discussion.
>>6094895
Poses:
Jonathan and Joseph looks neat. Josuke and Gio sucks.
IT'S HERE
>>6095065
>>6095072
>>6095065
>>6095072
>>6095080
Nice anon he's such a great looking figure the only thing that bugs me is that he has no buttons on his shirt other than that he's fantastic tho but gotta watch out for those shoulders.
>>6094895
His balls are Jonathan's, so yeah.
There is just a little bit of Brando genes in Gio.
Wish I had a better camera
>>6095158
>>6095065
He comes with KQ?
>>6095128
>no buttons on his shirt
This kind of triggers me since the buttons were kind of an important plot point.
>>6095271
Pretty sure it was only the buttons on the jacket that were a major plot point, which the RAH has
>>6093073
SC Requiem when?
This nigga
>>6095158
I really like this shot, it looks like it could be an album cover.
Does anyone have the Dead Man's Questions Kira? I might pick him up sometime and want to know if there's anything to be weary of.
So how's the custom scene of the line? I don't see a lot of stuff if any.
I don't even see recolours, you'd think a line like this could have lots of appealing for the custom community
>>6096124
You haven't followed the japanese and Italian end.
Pic related, someone has a molding process to make their own Clear SAS (Crazy Diamond and Gold Experience
In the link is Tremundo, he does some crazy custom projects with a Johnathan Joestar being a very impressive one.
https://youtu.be/mIbueu1X-dM
Here's a site for random customs: http://www.fg-site.net/archives/tag/超像可動
There's more on Twitter but I can't be bothered to make an account and look through all of them but a recent one that was shown off was a full on Foo Fighters Custom figure:
https://mobile.twitter.com/bisco_kaki_P/status/806158356264038400
>>6096133
Here's the old forum before they moved. The link is a thread dedicated to customs
http://metalrobot.forumfree.it/?t=63974197
>>6096133
How he makes clear what?
That is really impressive work holy shit
>>6096160
he probably did this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtxgSLUYwIg probably all parts are separated he has to do that so the figure is movable.
Looking for cheap blue Giorno. I won't pay over 5000 yens. Please help me. I already lurked on Manda and Yahoo.
>>6096730
it's a wonfes version so just pay for it
>>6096730
It's a little over 5k (5280y) but if Mandy isn't stocking up then you have this as an option:
http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?scode=FIGURE-019719-D001
Any lower and you need to lurk more.
>>6096730
Dude, they just rereleased him with an addional head and you're expecting it to be lower than 50? Good luck. Jeep checking Mandrake.
>>6096730
You didn't check hard enough. Giorno second went for 3500 on mandarake like a few weeks after he released. I saw like 5 of them for that price
>>6096786
>Wish I had a better camera
without the extra head at least.
>>6095378
>>6096902
>>6096381
how badly will this fuck up the figure you are molding from?
>>6096140
some gold here, thanks anon
>>6097172
I don't think it would, the only thing I could see is if you did the mold as one piece and cut it open. Then there'd be a minimal chance of cutting the figure a bit if you don't do it right. The actual mold making process won't cause damage AFAIK.
>>6097185
that's what it seemed like. what gave me pause was the sculpting clay which seems like it could get stuck in smaller crevices.
>>6097201
Other processes don't really require that much clay (if any) and since you'd be doing all individual pieces it would be simple to control where it goes.
How are RAH's? I was thinking about buying pic related and maybe Kaneda but don't know how they are.
>>6096133
>this is the Jonathan we could have gotten if Medicos was worth a damn
>>6097479
It's a pretty impressive transformation
http://myfigurecollection.net/profiles.php?user=Tremendo&page=pictures&sort=date&order=desc&cid=0&aid=-1&nsfw=-1&p=4
>>6097504
the one on the right is a lot worse
>>6097504
I'm still mad Medicos used the anime design instead of the manga. God bless Tremendo.
>>6097524
I disagree, I like what Medicos did for Johnathan but Tremundo's work on him captures something for me. Though it's understandable if the overall final product doesn't suit it for you.
A bit of finale-inspired posing
>>6097982
>>6097983
>>6096730
Saw him the other day for 4-something-k on mandy, just be patient and lurk both mandy and jungle.
>>6097985
perfect but missing stray cat?
>>6097991
Thanks! Found on surugaya
Is Soft & Wet known for having a tight back stand hole, or do I just need to hairdryer it?
>>6098604
mmmmm... tight back stand hole...
>>6097524
The face is way better, if nothing else.
>>6098604
Depends. My Soft and Wet is annoyingly big to the point no peg arm can ever hold him up correctly. No one else seems to have reported this in past threads.
>>6098604
Mine is fine, and I've never seen anyone else complain about this, so go for the hairdryer.
Just got these two bad boys in the mail off Mandrake. Gold Experience is meh, but I own Giorno so I had to get him. Josuke is awesome! Love him. I now own 2 of the Jojo's!
>>6097177
Can you buy custom faces for Jojo's figures somewhere?
>>6098992
That's not a custom face, it comes with Crazy Diamond 2nd.
>>6099003
Fuck. I hate that color. So second printings of Crazy don't have it, just the one color?
>>6099009
Just the one color. Sorry, friend. I want happy smiling Josuke as well but we must suffer Medicos' terrible ways of jewing us.
A little bummed I can pose Josuke like pic related.
With my allowance + sallary - bills I can purchase one figure every two months. I started to watch JoJo in march and by June I started to collect. I own Jotaro, Joseph, Kira, Rohan, Gappy, Shiza, Dio and now I'm getting Gio.
I must add that Shiza and Kira are both blonde.
As you can see I follow a pattern of only getting humans for the moment.
Am I doing well or should I get stands now, speaking of rarity? Thanks.
>>6098986
Congrats. Collecting JoJo is a point of no return
>>6099256
>Am I doing well
Up to you, no one should approve it beyond yourself. You seem focused on collecting users so it's up to you if you want to move to stand SAS's.
Part 6 Jotaro when?
>>6099637
Never. They moved on to Part 7.
You only have the exclusive RAH to go after now.
>>6099637
never
saw a blonde purple suit salary man for ebay for 150
should I do it
I can't tell if now that part 4 is over he'll be harder to get or not
>>6099648
no, 150 is more overpriced than usual
you can get him on manda for like 10k
>>6099650
cool, thanks anon, I'm not really good with prices on these things, i just know the first kira is a lot more expensive
long as I'm asking, if I'm looking for a star plat for pt.3 Jotaro what's my best option
I'm not a stickler for colour
>>6099658
Part 4 unless the headsculpt is a turn off. He's pretty much a 2.0 version of Part 3 with major changes to his articulation.
Just started my Jojo collection with a holy grail
Who should I get next? I'm torn between Jonathan, Caesar, Kars, and Jotaro
So it's Star Platinum the only stand with the punching effect part? The one who comes with Green Jotaro? Is there anything for The World at least?
>>6099741
So I'm guessing you have a substantial amount of shekels at your disposal.
Get Caesar and Kars for part 2 goodness
>>6099745
Nah, just some extra Christmas hours paying off so I blew it on some expensive shit
I think I'm gonna assemble the pillar men with my next paycheck to get that battle tendency going
>>6099738
Special case if I remember right. A Jotaro Part 6 SAS isn't going to happen and I'm being blunt about this.
>>6099742
Black Dio and also the sculpt is different with Jotaro's being much wider versus Dio's which goes inward a bit. Not applicable to every SAS though since the peg holes in them are larger so you may need to use the mini-arms with Jotaro to support them for other figures or SAS.
>>6099757
You seen pretty well versed in this line anon, is the Rohan ver3 a re-release? Or a new figure? I don't know a lot but I guide myself with the numbering in amiami and it says 80 so I'm confused
There are 3 different Rohan Sculpts (1. Mangaka's house arc,2.Highway star arc,3.Alien Arc) But sculpts 1 and 2 both have their own additional color variant. Rohan number 3 only recently got released
>>6099741
Good pose. How much it was? Welcome to the line mate.
Can any gentle soul show to us how to differentiate a "purchase now" to auction on Yahoo JP?
>>6099738

>>6100104
I threw together a quick visual. Hopefully it helps.
Alternatively, having auto-Google Translate on your browser might help.
>>6100099
I got it used for 13k, plus 2k shipping
thanks mate
>>6100261
I don't get this, part 6 is his worst costume in the series , as well as part 6 being not only the worst arc but the worst arc for jotaro
Not sure why you want it so bad
>>6100298
hmmmm, that's your just opinion buddy
>>6100264
I thought we were "definitely" getting Gyro last year. Can't trust Medicos to do anything consistently these days.
>>6099757
Where do you get the rapped punches?
>>6100337
Nevermind. Im retard. I hate getting jew'd out of money for effect parts. I'll probably get green Jotaro And Green Star Plat. But I might just suffer without effects for Dio.
SAS newfag
Is black jotaro difficult to find or expensive the way anime coloured Joseph is?
I'm sorry I'm an animefag pls no bully
>>6100492
He's not but you don't want him 'cause he's trash.
>>6100298
Third time's the charm man
Jotaro with overall better everything, a new sculpt, articulation, taller
it's my dream besides he looks suave as fuck in the outfit.
I just want to put Jotaro in ridiculous poses man and Part 4 doesn't let me and Part 3 is a manlet
>>6100496
Is he different than the manga coloured one? I don't like.Pt4s costume, plus I really wanna get Old Joseph, DIO and Za Warudo
>>6100506
they're both a bad sculpt imo
Doppio when?
>tfw they'll never update the older SAS
Being a johnathanfag is a hard life
>>6100515
Jotaro sorry wow that was dumb of me
How much should I expect to pay for a white Killer Queen? I've been lurking on most sites from the buyfag guide waiting for one to pop up, meanwhile ones on eBay are overpriced af... I'm new to this if you couldn't tell
>>6100492
"Anime coloured Joseph" is so expensive mainly because it's an event-limited/exclusive item, and it also comes with a special head (unlike the standard Joseph SAS).
Black Jotaro's not an exclusive, and not particularly expensive. If you decide on black Jotaro, try to make sure that it's Jotaro 1.5 (2012 release, updated sculpt) and not the older Jotaro 1 (2009 release).

JoJo doesn't have canon colors anon.

Sorry big guy, I already have Rohan version 2. Only interested in a Heaven's Door
What are you realistic expectations for this line?
I think if it comes out we get main Jojo and Main Villain with stands of course
>>6101161
Your expectations seems unrealistic.
>>6101165
What do you expect anon?
>>6101116
How much for the white rohan?
>>6101161
Just bigger versions of the SAS with better sculpt details and paintwork with a price to possibly match for the bigger scale.
Or they would bench this again like when they showed off Big Star Platinum some years ago.
Happy New Year. May everyone of us complete our collection or get the figures we desire.

>tfw living in Canada
sas by themselves are like 80 bucks between shipping and price conversions
Reading this post is causing me genuine physical harm
>>6101687
>tfw living in Canada
Same, I've been on these threads for a while now and I've never gotten myself an SAS because of the dollar.
I'll just wait patiently.
How much does KQ 2nd go for these days? I lucked out and managed to get Kira 2nd before the anime started. I take it that since they reissued the white one and the anime uses mainly the pink colours for KQ, that its price skyrocketed.
>>6101687
>>6101692
>tfw actually british and picked up both those two for that price (including free tracked priority shipping)
Bought them from an independent retailer from Shizuoka Prefecture who was willing to ship stuff from his store, before I use hobbysearch to buy anything I check with him first now.
Welp, broke my first stand. Right at the joint, not able to pin/cement it. Should I just kill myself or is there some way to just buy a new one?
>>6102160
You can find them on mandarake usually.
>>6102163
>banned from mandarake
fug.
>>6102160
You could get a generic action figure stand
>>6102165
Lol wut? How?
Around how much would it cost me to ship 4 figures from AmiAmi to Europe?
>>6102595
You can make a simulation before paying. And it also varies from shipping to shipping.
>Email anons who were selling Jojos in BST
>They never email me back
>>6102595
I've only ever ordered 3 figures at a time, and it was about 1.5k SAL and like 4k with EMS, it should be around that.
So I have in my private warehouse
>Kira
>Star platinum
>Josuke
>Crazy Diamond
>Jotaro part 4
>Mafex Batfleck
I'm shipping 3 guys now and the Batfleck is for my friend and where splitting the shipping cost so he is definitely in, who should I send with Batman anons?
Kira's being there for 42 days and the next shipment is probably going to be next month and I can't remember Hlj limit
>>6102932
Get KQ probly.
>>6102937
I really want it, but I pre-ordered months ago Saitama and Revo Spidey on Amiami, which already took my limit per month, I don't want to cancel my order with amiami because is my first time ordering with them and don't wanna risk getting ban because they have the better deals in SAS
>>6102785
Oh, are you limited to 3 figures per order? Because it says something like that on the site
Do you think Anasui will get a recolor eventually?
I really like the character but I can't stand the color Medicos picked for him.
>>6103497
I need a Girlasui SAS.
But also a part 6 Jotaro.
Neither of which will ever happen.
>Just scored a pink Okuyasu for 3000 yen

>Just scored a blue and red Dio for 3000 yen (I have bad taste and love this colorway)

w-why can't I be happy?
>>6103511
>>Just scored a blue and red Dio for 3000 yen (I have bad taste and love this colorway)
What? Red DIO is clearly the patrician colorway.
>>6103516
I've seen so many people shit on that colorway and never understood it. It's brilliant.
>>6092749
What are the shipping fees like on there?
>>6103497
Depends. I figured we would see some recolors for Part 4 when the anime aired but we ended up getting a recolor Giorno with a new headsculpt alt on top of the original, reissue of Bruno, WF Okuyasu (still no reissue in site for Okuyasu 1st), and a couple of reissues of other Part 4 characters. And of course new sculpt Rohan.
I wouldn't put it pass Medicos to do a new color for Part 6 but it would probably be something like a Hermes 2nd or Diver Down 2nd, so whatever they feel like doing(if it wasn't another round of reissues again).
>>6103519
Really? Over here at least it was usually a eccentric color but I never seen anyone really shit on it beyond saying how tricky it is to match up a good The World colorway because of the bright red and blues.
I was wondering if it was a bad idea to get the Winterfest Crazy Diamond simply for the altrenate Josuke head if I own the re-released version. I hear that the peg in the re-release is too big for the altrenate head and wanted to see if just going with a regular CD is safer if I wish to not break the Josuke.
>>6103590
You could try to very lightly sand it down for a flush fit. Though a bigger worry is the fact reissues have the new skin paint which is a few tones lighter than the original SAS shading back then. I'm sure someone a shot some time ago with the smiling Josuke head on the reissue body but I'm not sure if the skin shading is a stark contrast to the body and neck.
>>6103599
I see. That's a bit of a shame. Though either way I can't lie for my very first SAS Josuke is honestly super fun to have. good enough to make me consider saving up for a WF Joseph. I probably will just be happy with the figure if the paint is different to the point of being very noticeable on the smiling head.
>>6103399
No, you can only order up to 3 of the same figure, but you can order more of different figures, I've just never done it.
I was giving you the prices for 3 so you can estimate how much 4 would cost.
>>6103675
Oh good, thanks man
Man, fuck Amazon. I had gift card so the only reason I order a Pucci figure is because it was cheap and shit. They cancelled my order today even though they got that shit restocked. They had me reorder the figure because they said they could adjust the price, then told me they couldn't. Such an annoying experience. I cancelled my order and will just wait for Amiami or some other store to get more.
I want to get some Jojo figures, and this seems like a good one to get. I don't see many reviews. How is it?
>>6104043
old and therefore underwhelming compared to newer ones
>>6104049
Is there a newer figure of that particular look? I didn't see one in my search.
>>6104051
Of Part 3 Jotaro? Not really, unless you wanted to go for the RAH or something. That's pretty radically different from an SAS though, so.
>>6104051
Pray for this to get released I guess
>>6101161
>>6104049
True, but not a terrible figure, it still looks nice doesn't it?
>>6104060
Yeah no, it's totally fine and mostly in-scale-ish with most other JoJo SASes. Just not top-tier SAS.
>>6104062
What are some top tier SAS? The only I can think right now is whitesnake
And Pucci I'm pretty sure towers over Jotaro
Okay, how about the part four figures? It's not my favorite look, but I just want a decent Jotaro and Star on my shelf.
>>6104066
Joseph and Caesar are pretty good.
>>6104068
Part 4 Jotaro is good.
>>6104068
marginally better than Part three, seeing as how part four came out right after. those jotaros are the exact same size, though.
>>6104068
imo 4taro is a perfect SAS.
Hey, what's the deal with Soft and Wet's ult. head parts? Why do they have different horn things.
>>6104090
Araki didn't know how to draw his head at first so there's a bunch of variations.
>>6104066
Aijin/IBM is pretty much my top pick of best SAS next to Young Joseph and Star Platinum Part IV.
MFW I wasted all my money on SAS Tokyo Ghoul shit before I had the chance to watch Jojo
tfw I don't know what sas to buy next
tfw I kinda want certain ones but not enough to jump at the chance to buy them and the one I know I want are very pricey
Who's bad?!
>>6104281
God MJ's face printing was so horrible.
I'm glad bandai apparently improved.
>>6104177
Do you regret all of them, or just two of them?
>>6104281
Which MJ? The Thriller one?
>>6104281
Spooky
>>6104281
The World looks derpy as shit, wtf
>>6104350
It's probably how I shot it but I do feel he's always looking through you and not at you.
how the fuck work Mandarake for payment?
>>6104394
Paypal.
>>6104394
So you submit your order and they'll send you an email with the payment link with shipping.
Ay, kinda new to all this since the only figure I have is Fugo, which I got on Amazon. Can anyone here tell me how much AmiAmi charges for shipping SAS figs?
>>6104624
Planning on getting Whitesnake, if that helps.
I'm in Australia so it might be different for you, but it usually costs ~500 yen for the cheapest shipping (Sal small packet Unregistered), ~900 if you are shipping two.
>>6104642
>>6104624
>>6104626
I need to stop fucking up and not replying properly.
Are there SAS bootlegs out there? I really want Star Platinum in the green or purple variant but they came out a long time ago and I don't want to end up buying a bootleg from Amazon or eBay.
Any ideas for displaying DIO's knives mid-throw? Wires or string or something?
>>6104681
Damn. I forgot how smooth the OVA animation was. Good shit.
>>6104680
No
>>6104681
If you can translate what this post is then maybe it can lead you to the base this pic is from.
http://metalrobot.forumfree.it/m/?t=63974197&st=945
>>6104683
it's an interesting piece of history, I'll say that
i'm not gonna pretend it's better than the 2014 anime but for what it was it was interesting. 90's anime is comfy as fuck
although it loses points for having the fight against DIO not involve the Road roller
>>6104728
man, it's a shame that DIO looks like utter garbage in any colour but his default
>>6104836
I think that the OVA DIO fight was ultimately better just because it felt much more tense, and was also animated much better. Even the oil tanker is cool on its own because it makes more sense and also it added fire to the final scene, and Jotaro walking out of the fucking fire was damn cool.
>>6104291
Kaneki's alright, fuck the other two. Still, I would have preferred any Jojo character over it
>>6105052
The anime DIO fight would be so much better if it didn't use the same music they've been using the entire series
The music that plays when you fight steely Dan should not be the same music that plays when you're fighting a centuries old vampire
>>6104680
Pay the latecomers tax, scrub.
>>6105163
I'll do it gladly, I'm not a poorfag :^)
Who's dick do I need to suck to get updated SAS of part 3 and 4? I'm tired of my 195cm Jotaro looking punny next to 195cm Joseph and Jonathan
>>6105298
No one because Medicos won't be assed to do it. Instead we get the SAS BIG line with Jotaro and Star Platinum
>>6105305
>SAS are 7000 now
>BIG are going to be PAK prices
Tho the idea of super posable 1/6 without soft goods makes me so happy
Goddammit Medicos why can't you be a big company like Bandai so the prices don't go up that much
>>6105298
Joseph is a big guy.
Was wondering if the new Rohan came with any neat accessories to make it worth getting over the one with Heaven's Door or the Highway Star attire.

He's just got a face a lot closer to the original art style of JJL than recent.
>>6105661
Haven't seen someone do a full lineup for all the Part 4 gang but here's his review to get an idea.
http://blog.livedoor.jp/hacchaka/archives/51992445.html
Also I'm not sure how accurate the MFC info on his height is but it's a reference point when you compare the other SAS Part 4 figures when you search around.
>>6105667
Thanks anon, he is taller than previous Rohan I can see
>>6104374
>>6104350
>obligatory
>>6105336
For you
>>6104374
I thought king crimson had a derpy face in the manga as well
>>6105680
Which Rohan is the on to get?
>>6105932
I prefer highway star outfit, but the fact that the first release Rohan comes with Heaven Door (and there's no other way to get it) is something to consider. I ended up coping both, keeping the heavens door, and passing off the spare Rohan to my gf
>>6105864
Nah, the eyes on some King Crimson's varied and it was seen in the 1st and WF releases. I know I've seen one where the eyes on both KC and Epitaph are literally looking up. I got lucky with WF and Blue ver. for the most part but I can't imagine the luck to get both KC and Epitaph's eye's to be painted to look where they are supposed to.
What's site would be best for getting JoJo figs shipped to South Africa ?
How's my posing guys?!
>>6105984
Some of them are kinda plain but idk I'm trying to work out my display.
>>6105984
Okay but Killer Queen 1st looks like he's falling off drunk or something.
>>6105985
It's a bit too obvious Dio's hand is coming off the joint though I see what you're doing. Not sure what you're aiming to do with Wham and Esidesi but it could be better if the space allows it. Same case with Young Joseph.
Magician's Red needs to look a little more dynamic or float behind Avdol(or maybe just shift their position to Avdol facing front since the side angle isn't so nice with the ways the legs are posed)
Overall it's okay but play around with the limbs a little and try to see what you can do with them versus what you imagined they look good in. Though I can imagine the limitations of using the standard base since there are only two holes which are across from eachother thus limiting certain angles and displays unless you get the WF only base packs or borrow from Jotaro 3rd and Black Dio.
So what do you guys do for Jolyne and her strings? The flesh-colored or neon green strings are just way too weird and I don't feel they work very well on a technical level anyway.
Weird as it may be, I wonder if Spiderman we shooting accessories might actually work well.
>>6092023
I painted his hair light brown and it looks great.
That's how I imagined him when I read Duwang
Brown hair and white suit
>>6106353
Sounds cool, can you post pictures?
I feel like there should be more brown hair in Jojo, hopefully that's how Fugo's and/or F.F.'s will be in the anime.
>>6106330
Just whatever I can reference off the manga or general artwork. It's a bit of a mix bag when it comes to her strings. I wish Medicos did a switch and gave Stone Free a creative setup, only the RAH managed to do that
>>6096140
That Zeppeli SAS man...
>>6106375
Ah, I'd probably do them according to the colored scans, with the string just being that - string color. Shame Medicos cheaped out. Could've easily given Stone Free more than just an extra head and hands.
But yeah, that's how Medicos is with stands.
Anyone know where I can find a Jolyne and Stone Free at a reasonable price?
>>6106419
Ask President Valentine.
This is off topic but can anyone recommend some good lights for wood bookcase shelves? I want to install some lights to make my shit shine.
How is SAL?
Just for ask
>>6106579
Cheap but slow. Speed will vary but if your a US anon then 2 weeks can happen but don't be shocked if a month passes by before hitting stateside. Can't vouch for EU and other counties.
I have read JoJolion until the last chapter, but why Jo2uke comes with Bento (lunch) and that black thing like a squid? I know that the chess horse pieceis because of Daiya's stand.
>>6106960
It's the lunch Yashuo gave him when he was in the hospital.
>>6106960
The black thing is the rice ball that gushes paste or whatever it was. You put it in Josuke's open mouth.
>>6106960
>>6107172
My problem with the Gappy figure is that they only gave us one open mouth head, and somehow tried to make it work as a
1.Happily eating face
2.Regurgitating solid chess piece face
3.Angrily screaming ORA ORA ARA face
I guess it sorta works but it could have looked better if they just split it across multiple heads
>>6107275
>image
Surprised someone actually saved it, and posted it too.
>>6106368
I still have a white regular Kira head.I bought for 8$
>>6092023
I paid U$50 for my blonde Kira two months ago. You just have to search better. He is usually 9~11k yens, I found it for 5,5k yens on Suruga-ya!
What A condition means in Jungle? I know it's probably opened or something like that. But there is this Gappy that I've been eyeing for a while now and pretty cheap too. But the only review that I saw of Gappy in youtube said something about the knees being loose and I think some anon said that his knee were loose too. Is Jungle cool and stuff? Should I go with mandarake?
Any people with Gappy care to tell me about his sturdiness?
>>6108198
My Gappy knees are perfectly fine, mate.
