So, what was your favorite announcement this year?
>>6346672
Damn, looks nicer than the revoltech
>>6346758
Better scale too.
>>6346758
The revo came out like 5 years ago, I would hope it looked better.
>>6346672
>Jack Sparrow
I wonder if this means we'll be getting stuff like Tron or Black Hole.
>>6346901
I mostly want them to do some of the animated movies, but Tron would be nice too.
>>6346672
Coincidentally, just got home from the new movie. Was okay.
But this prototype does look good. I think I'll pick one up.
>>6346672
Does anyone have a source for all the announcement pictures?
>preordered Bring Arts as KH would never EVER get a figuarts
>Figuarts being made
WHAT THE FUCK AMIAMI WILL NEVER LET ME CANCEL
>>6347281
It's two different versions of the character bro.
>>6346758
It doesn't look better, but only maybe because the angle of that photo it doesn't look like Depp.
Whereas the Revoltech is a deadon likeness of Depp from every angle and has a really great paint job.
Without a doubt, the actual Figuarts figure will end up looking worse, unless they improve on their paint apps.
For those of you with the RoTJ Luke, how did you guys pose him?
I must admit that I want this due to the similarity to the suits in the recently released Prey.
That said, I always did like her character design in the various suit colors, though, the red is new to me.
>>6347426
Would have prefered the 2199 suit, but it's good they're releasing more Yamato characters. They should release Kodai too, but guys don't sell that well.
>>6347426
Where can i buy this bishoujo?
Would Bandai be able to wrangle the toy rights to Squenix-owned manga like Full Metal Alchemist, Soul Eater, and Dimension W or was the only reason they got KH was due to Disney?
Wait, does he not actually come with a pistol?
>>6347598
>releasing in July
What the fuck, really? That's so soon. Can this be how they do things from now on? Release things within 2 months of reveal
>>6347595
>no pistol
>all the rum is gone
Bandai...
>>6347281
They will - you just have to be a regular customer that has a good track record for payments.
Protip: [spoiler]Make it sound professional.[/spoiler]
>>6347588
Out of all the goofy ass extra faces you could have included, why would they choose this?
BARBOSSA NOW
>>6347686
Because not every figure can be Woody Tier, I guess.
>>6347595
>disney lets Jack have a bottle of rum
>wolverine's cigar is taken away
What a cruel world we live in
>>6347722
Gonna guess this is actually the case:
"It's an empty brown bottle, who knows what was in it? Probably just water, everyone knows pirates love water, wink wink."
Meanwhile...
"No, thats not an e-cigar, we can't promote vaping, thats like turning a kid into a faggot. No cigar for you, bub."
>>6347588
his face reminds me of a really good oil painting while his neck looks like Hasbro tier shit
>>6347531
The KH stuff is definitely very likely due to Disney involvement. The manga stuff? As far as w know Squenix does not have th same exclusivity clause for the manga properties, so far the only line that got any decent amount of toys was FMA which not only got the old play arts figures(which were under another company iirc) but they also got Revos and recently Nendos with a potential for figmas since they got nendos due to a fan poll contest.
>>6346679
>Rey will NEVER get a release date
I'm super happy to hear they are making Sora!! I just need them to make Riku and I'll be set with just those two. If they do continue, then Kairi, Donald, and Goofy would be cool too.
>>6348650
But what about the king?
>>6348008
Yeah, it's a Disney deal:
https://twitter.com/disneyjp/status/869055755344781312
November release for Sora. More Disney characters should follow.
>>6348706
>the only way to get SE IP's out of their shitty, oversized, poorly constructed hands is to let another company force them to
Fuck, can Disney just buy SE outright? I'd really like some good FF figures, but SE will never make any of those.
Stone Cold and Rocky are just tons of emotive fun. Crazy to think we'll have Vince figuarts very soon as well.
>>6348708
>can Disney just buy SE outright?
Fuck. That.
Why would you destroy SE like that?
>>6348713
>Why would you destroy SE like that?
SE seems to be managing that on their own.
>>6348716
They're still doing well, whether you like their current games or not.
But meanwhile, look what Disney did to its own video game division. Axed it, and then canceled Disney Infinity because, while selling well, it wasn't selling good enough to the executives to justify keeping it.
Eeeeew! Would you do this ass?
>>6347588
>>6347586
>>6347578
That headsculpt is way off.
Face is too long to look like Depp.
Revoltechs was better.
>>6348706
>More Disney characters to follow
NEED
>>6348716
FFXV was a success
>>6348756
looks pretty accurate.
>>6348735
>Get the ass on Chun-Li, which is covered 90% of the time by her dress, perfect
>Get the ass on Cammy, which is visible 100% of the time, completely fucked up
>>6348772
They've been pretty good about making the hanging bits on star wars figures soft and not too limiting.
>>6348768
Not really.
Eyes are more narrow.
Width of head too large, or at least the upper part at the cheekbones.
And too long.
The heads being too long seems to be the trademark for this specific sculptor, since the Black Widow has the same issues.
>>6348765
Yeah, unfortunately
>>6348775
I'm pretty sure that if one of them is too long it isn't the figuarts. That one actually looks slightly squished.
I think it's a better likeness for sure though, after trying this.
>>6347586
>no smiling face
Missed opportunity. C'mon Bandai, it's an iconic look.
>>6348788
Proportions still look better on the Revoltech, as you made it look cartoony (larger everything), but still has the Depp features.
It's like he's wearing a mask of himself
Figuarts is still skinny/long looking because of the eyes and it's deflating in a really weird way.
Very (Johnny) DERPy looking, so it really doesn't look like him.
>>6348805
I didn't make it look anything, I just tried to line the noses up proportionally.
Sorry but one of those looks more like johnny depp than the other and it's not the revo.
>>6348808
Yeah, no.
Look at the eyes. Too narrow on the Figuarts and the eye shape is different too.
Look at the cheek bones. Not as defined on the Figuarts and has a fatter looking face for it
The Revoltech is just a cartoony looking Depp.
The Figuarts could be anyone.
Just cover up half the Figuart's face and it suddenly looks like no one.
>>6348812
>Not as defined on the figuarts
They aren't as defined on the actual real life photo, either.
They nailed the nose, mouth, and jawline.
This is the figure you are saying is a more accuracte likeness.
>>6348815
Are you blind? Look at where the cheekbone starts. There's a pretty sharp inward curve into his cheek.
Same sharp inward curve on the Revoltech. The Figuarts doesn't show that (but that may just be the lighting for the Figuarts). As it stands, those cheekbones are a pretty defining feature on Depp.
Same with that nose on that Revoltech you imaged. It looks like Depp's seen here >>6348803
Very triangular, making the Revoltech look like Depp, because they actually captured a good likeness.
Whereas the Figuarts http://i.4cdn.org/toy/1495984199661.jpg nose is way too narrow looking. It's like he has a pencil being covered by skin going straight down.
And again, those eyes. Being smaller and closer set, that means there's a lot more eyes:face ratio, making the head look too long/wide despite it being roughly the same size as the real thing.
It just doesn't look like Depp.
>>6348824
They both don't really look like Depp.
>>6348827
Nah, anyone and especially their mothers who loved 21 Jump Street and Edward Scissorhands could tell the Revoltech is Johnny Depp.
The Figuarts sorta kinda could be Johnny Depp, but i can definitely tell that the sculptor is the same guy who did the black Widow and Captain America figure, because he has very tell-tale sculpting hang ups on realistic sculpts.
Close set eyes. Small eyes in general. Narrow looking heads/faces.
>>6348827
Depp (IRL) doesn't look like Depp (movies).
>>6348708
>Fuck, can Disney just buy SE outright? I'd really like some good FF figures, but SE will never make any of those.
Fuck off dude. Disney would DESTROY that company just so you could get some toys. Also Bring Arts Sora looks pretty good and if they keep it up with 2B and Kaine I will be plenty happy with getting affordable 6 inch offerings instead of that dumb ass PAK scale shit.
If Disney owned Square-Enix they'd shut down the gaming division for not making enough money and games like Nier Automata wouldn't even exist. They would retroactively remove Nier from their library and NEVER allow Nier figures to be made. Just like Disney is trying to pretend slave Leia never happened and wouldn't let Hasbro make Darth Talon because she is dressed in skimpy clothes despite her winning the damn popularity polls on what to make next. We will NEVER get a Darth Talon figure under Disney.
I could go on and on about all the seedy horrible shit that company does that affects both copyright laws and consumers in a highly negative way. So fuck you for even suggesting that to get a marginally superior toy out of a different company Disney isn't even in direct control of and who could abandon the lines the next day if they felt like it.
>>6348708
>Phineas and Ferb meets CLoud Strife
>Final Fantasy: Agents of M.A.G.I.C.
>finally get Infinity 4.0 NO NO NO YOU CANT USE HULK IN CRONO TRIGGER LAND
>>6348841
>If Disney bought Square Enix they'd shut down the one thing that keeps SE relevant
Uh huh. I don't want disney to buy any more IP and fear their deathgrip on entertainment IPs as is, but this is still hyperbolic.
>>6348847
>hyperbolic
No, it's really not. Square-Enix invests in big risky expensive projects and then also niche stuff like Nier Automata. Disney is the play it safe company who milks things endlessly and applies focus groups to everything to the point where everything unique is decimated. If they did let Square-Enix continue making games they would be garbage compared to what we get now and they would be sanitized to be family friendly as possible. Once people abandon the games they make because they suck they'd just shut them down and continue milking all the valuable IP's through cheap tv shows, merchandising, etc.
This is the Disney MO.
Jack just went up on hlj.
>>6348855
>The Figuarts could be anyone.
That's the joke.
>>6347619
Bandai has made it known that they want the Hot Toys audience, and the Jack Sparrow HT was one of the more popular releases.
>>6348735
that looks like some diaper
>>6348735
There was really no way to avoid this. It's going to look great standing straight up but bad when you start moving it around. Chun Li looks just as bad back there but it's all covered up by clothes. The upcoming figma Slan has the same exact problem in a different looking way but it still looks bad.
>>6348917
>Chun Li looks just as bad
Nigga what? Chun Li's ass looks perfect; literally could've recolored the parts for Cammy and it would've been fine.
>>6348921
Chun Li looks better but no you can't just re-use her design for Cammy. Cammy's costume is different and wouldn't have allowed for it. To clarify...Chun Li looks amazing from the back but when you use her hips it creates a big ass bar across her crotch from the front. This is covered by her clothes so it looks fine but on Cammy it'd look awful and be highlighted even more by her costume design. Do you really want a Cammy that looks great from the back in a standing pose but worse in every other angle?
The new hip design just doesn't work for Cammy. It's a shame she loses out on a perfect ass but are you really going to be displaying her ass first 24/7?
>>6348921
I don't have the chun-li figure yet, but is her crotch piece a solid plastic or a soft rubber-like material?
Because I'm thinking if it's going to be the same for the cammy figure as well
No Salazar?
Is this legit?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/152559131731
>>6349013
There's no Naruto SHF KO
>>6349017
Just realized you meant knockoff.
Which SHF have knockoffs then?
>>6349022
The Sailor Senshi do. A lot of Dragon Ball ones do. No Rider or Super Sentai ones. The only ones I know for sure are the Senshi and DB ones.
>>6348927
> are you really going to be displaying her ass first 24/7?
DUH?! I do! That's the point of getting her in the first place.
DAT ASS!
>>6348735
Blergh! No wonder they never show her ass on official pics. Totally ruined!
>>6348966
Chun-Li has soft pvc for her croth so she can do her CvS2 pose(one leg posed all the way up). I'm guessing Cammy will also have soft pvc for her crotch too.
>>6349017
>>6349022
Nauto SHF do have bootlegs/knockoffs
, I know the non Sage mode Naruto and 1st version of Sasuke KO's can be found on ebay and aliexpress.

Wow that pose is shit. No wonder the ass looks so bad compared to other pics and videos i've seen. Why is the leg even dropped down?
where can i get chun li now
>>6349139
Do the WWE figures have knock offs? They seem to be popping off cheap on Ebay recently.
>>6349152
Big bad toy store
>>6349156
No, it's just that nobody wants them.
>>6348841
>Disney would DESTROY that company just so you could get some toys
I dunno, SE dying would probably be a boon to everyone at this point, since they only put out a game every 10 fuckin' years nowadays and it's always starring a bunch of skinny wankers that look like they stepped out of a Gackt video from 20 years ago.
>>6349163
>Final Fantasy is the only game that SE makes
>>6349343
Only one that matters
>>6348824
They're both accurate.
Fit Depp in his prime = revoltech
Let-himself-go, post breakup Depp = SHF
>>6347355
>deadon likeness
Lol nah
>>6347531
Square-Enix doesn't own those manga, they just own the magazine that they were first published in. They have no control over what happens to those manga as far as merchandising and compilations go, so long as said products don't explicitly mention Shonen Gangan. It's very likely that Sora's only happening because of Disney pulling some strings, but there's nothing stopping Bandai from going after Soul Eater or FMA in the future (other companies like GSC and Kaiyodo have already done figures from Shonen Gangan manga).
>>6346672
S.H.FiguFail? Jack should have a DX release with a stand. They just don't develop their action figure concepts fully for a company that wants the Hot Toys audience.
>>6349157
LOL you know toy soldiers are too poor to pay a $5 foot dragger tax.
>>6349139
Hm, so that hanging crotch is still present.
I wonder if it's because you can move the hop joint up and down, and this wasn't posed properly.
But really, any figure with a high-cut suit like that is really gonna give you problems to balance between sculpt and articulation
>>6350191
It's not hanging crotch. She just shat in her leotard, it's the weight of her poop that's dragging it down.
>>6350338
That's a new fetish.
Is Anime export super slow at shipping? i requested shipping on fri day and i still havent got the request for payment email or anything. ive emailed them asking whats up but they havent responded is this normal?
>>6350342
It's not new bro.
>>6349139
The crotch is weird but honestly I can't see how else they could have done it. Highleg clothing is hard to do on a poseable figure.
>>6350381
They don't ship or work weekends, and occasionally they can be really slow, yeah.
>>6350392
For me it is
>>6351190
OK thanks man, just wasn't used to waiting for a pretty order since a Miami always ships so fast lol
>>6351167
PAK did Cammy right.
Wonderful ass, great legs, actually looks like Cammy from the game, highly poseable... the knees are hideos though.
If a hand feels a bit too tight when I remove it from a socket, then when it's off should I apply the shock oil on the ball socket?
>>6351996
As in take a toothpick and rub a certain amount on the socket or maybe rub it into the hand.
Any chances of Bandai releasing Persona 5 figurats to go with the figmas?
>>6351781
if only they didn't use shitty clock joints and a retarded ass scale
>>6352044
They probably would've shown something at their recent event in Osaka if they were going to, but then again, Bandai has a knack for not announcing products until days before they go up for preorder. I'd say don't count on it, but never say never.
>>6352044
You mean like D-Arts of the Personas themselves? Because I'd absolutely love that.
>>6353026
Sweet already can tell that it has more articulation than the PA
If they make Mickey without the coat I'll throw my PA in the trash with no regrets
>>6353033
i need this fucking goofy
>>6353033
GAWRSH! CHARGING STAR HYUK!!
>>6353133
Hell gimme a Scrooge McDuck
>>6353136
I want Darkwing Duck with Negaduck as an exclusive.
AYO HOL' UP
>>6353026
What horrible leg articulation... how else am I supposed to have him split his legs and punch Sora in the balls.
>>6353290
Not bad...
>>6348735
Eh, you could adjust the legs a certain way to make her butt look better. Like >>6348917 said, it's an unfortunate design flaw that can only work in a certain pose.
>>6350191
>I wonder if it's because you can move the hop joint up and down, and this wasn't posed properly.
Probably that. I suppose you can hide it depending on the pose and angle you set her in.
>>6353285
Looks better than before, but I still don't really see the likeness
>>6353026
Hopefully the KH project is a success, so more characters get made. Roxas or Xion, I just want the Org. XIII cloaks.
Where is my SH Figuarts Boruto?
>>6348999
very unlikely.
I would fucking cum buckets if they did though
http://www.shonenjump.com/j/jumpcalendar/sakuhin/dragonball/
Yamcha confirmed for November
KH is one of the franchises I'd actually want the majority/ all of the cast.
>>6354552
Yeah, we'll see...
>>6346672
>www.bigbadtoystore.com (For items distributed by Bluefin. Others should be purchased elsewhere)
Reason for this?
>>6354887
Because they'll have to import them on their own and that jacks the price beyond msrp.
>>6354887
Because stuff distributed by Bluefin can usually be obtained in the US via Amazon or BBTS or whatever, for the default price (or less). Thats how you can get some stuff cheaper in the US than you can by ordering it off HLJ or something.
>>6354657
Its right there on Jump's official website. They always put up Jump related merch up on that site in advance.
Holy shit, did Shenron Instantly sell out???
I'll be able to buy a Ep2 Anakin at Anime Expo right?
>>6355236
No.
>>6355245
W-Why not?
>>6355248
It's an exclusive, retard?
>>6355264
I thought they sold them at conventions?
>>6355236
Probably from a secondhand store booth. But probably not from an official tamashii store
>>6355587
Scalper booths you mean.....
>>6355592
Bigbad and image totally will scalp it at cons
This little peg in Qui-Gon's lightsaber is going to be the death of me. I might need to buy an Obi-Wan just to get the other one.
>>6355682
Why the fuck would they even do that? I can't even wrap my head around that decision.
>>6355688
I don't know, but now I need to add it to my list of things to buy.
>>6355688
I like to imagine that there is a giant wheel at Bandai where 3/4 of the wheel is "Let's do something dumb today"
>>6355688
I assume the idea was "a clear plastic peg would be super fragile, maybe doing it the other way around would be better".
>>6348844
Source?
>>6347578
If this paves the way for a Davy Jones, then awesome. Although unlikely.
>>6355851
Billy and Mandy
Think we'll get him? I need a replacement for the shitty "I've seen some shit" Thor from the Ultron line.
>>6355945
Probably, but considering that the AOU version sold poorly (it's still available on amiami and HLJ still had it in stock at the start of the year ), it might be P-Bandai.
>>6348712
You mean full of... attitude
So I take it the Deathtrooper that comes with the Rogue One Japanese Blu-Ray is gonna cost me at least $130 if I want it. Or is there a chance it
will come up on manda or something?
>>6358315
Just get the model kit.
>inb4 model meme
When are we getting goemon? I would hate if they gave us the 4 and then bitched out on him.
>>6347619
I think Bandai probably has close working ties with Disney. Between Star Wars Figuarts, Toy Story Chogokin and these PotC Figuarts, I can see us getting figures for whatever IP Disney is pushing.
>2017
>no Regina in sight
>tfw want Sailor Jupiter

>eBay has nothing but bootlegs and scalpers

I just want my favourite Senshi for fuck's sake.
>>6358682
Super Mercury came out, Super Venus is next, just wait for Super Jupiter or Crystal Jupiter.
>>6358682
>released 3 years ago
>easily available all that time
>price I don't want to pay now is scalping
I suggest you wait for Super Jupiter, drag your feet for 3 years again, and cry about that too
>>6358828
No kidding. I got tired of trying to sell SHF Sailor Moon stuff on eBay. $40-$45 and nobody would touch it. Eventually just donated them to a toy drive for a tax writeoff.
>>6358828
>>6358709
I don't want those designs though (ESPECIALLY not Crystal, fuck no).
I mean the prices on Mandarake aren't awful but they don't seem to be in stock very often and there is the shipping to contend with. As for "prices you don't want to pay aren't scalping" the non-bootlegs are literally being sold for over £100. That's absurd.
I swear eBay should have some kind of enforcement where nothing can be sold for a price over its actual retail value. That'd stamp out scalpers for good.
>>6358494
It's okay, we'll get her before any of the HaCha characters get a prototype.
Took about 3 years to finish this team so what's another 1-2?
>>6358494
>>6359442
Well, Regina and Heart Parthenon Mode are the only ones left from the poll winners (pic related).
Magical is on the way, so my guess is that she'll be released around december and then Regina, Heart, Scarlet and Felice will be released during the first of half of 2018. Then they'll either start HaCha or KiraKira. (Although I really hope they skip Parthenon Heart. Honestly, does people really Heart that much?)
>>6359713

>>6348762
Now I wish for a Star Butterfly and Marco Diaz SHFs.
>>6360245
>Enjoy something cheaper
I can't. Cheap figures are shite.
>Take it you not even considered to look at trying to earn any money on the side through those fiverr like sites?
That takes far too long. And again, my pathetically short attention span means I can't even maintain the effort to do that.
>Work on getting a second side income
Like what? I've got nothing I can sell for any good amount of money I'd be prepared to part with, I have zero useful skills, I can't manage menial tasks because my patience is so lacking and I get angry too quickly to learn anything. I can't even make money off of stupid furfags because my art skills aren't good enough and there's nowhere nearby I could improve them.
Literally my only hope would be voting Labour in the hope they raise the benefits to the point I can afford this shit even when me and my mother are relying on them to fucking survive. And they'll only give money to Muslims anyway so I can't even do that.
I am seriously considering suicide. My life is a fucking dead end and there is legitimately no way out.

There are tons of self-taught artists that are good, let alone those who are professionals. You literally have no excuse when you have access to the internet and can easily pirate books, get references, and have all this time to draw.
>>6360251
Just get DAZ 3D, pirate various content and pose around the models then trace the fuck over them bro. People looking for porn aren't going to give a fuck anyway since most porn artists already trace like crazy anyway. There is nothing to really learn and frustrate you once you get past the very small hurdle of learning the software which is fully documented.
>>6360296
I'm literally too incompetent to trace. That is the extent of my complete uselessness.
I dunno. I just feel like a complete piece of shit at the moment. I dunno why I'm getting so depressed, another one's probably gonna show up on Mandarake soon anyway. I'm sorry, I'm going through a real rough spot at the moment.

Perhaps not Mana, but her girlfriend is definitely still popular.
That figuarts poll was taken in 2014, so there's probably a few other characters people want over another Cure Heart figure by now.
>>6347700
This.
Also Davey Jones pls
Ironically enough considering the other anon's troubles I just snagged Sailor Jupiter off Mandy for 6000 yen (not including shipping). Though I imagine I'll be waiting a while because
>SAL
>>6360336
I have the original one and it's one of my favorite figures. I don't even know anything about the manga, he just came with a ton of accessories and I think he's cool as hell. I'll definitely grab this one too.
>>6360692
>Brainless Mary Sues Dream and Happy in the top 5
>Princess is more popular than Honey
Sometimes I don't understand this fandom, then I remember that the main audience are little girls.
I really hope they consider making another poll, we honestly don't need a recolor Heart right now, specially now that the All-Stars movies will only include the 3 most recent teams, they need to complete all the past teams before no one wants them anymore.
>>6360328
Can someone understanding runes translate this please

It's an event exclusive isn't it?
>>6360279
This.
Furry porn artists earn a fucking shit ton. Only reason I'd be tempted to draw that stuff.
>>6355844
I can easily see doing the peg the other way around would mean it's much easier to put enough pressure onto the peg which results in it snapping and leaving a piece of clear plastic in the hilt.
Having it on the hilt means any pressure would more likely cause the two parts to separate without breaking.
Looks ugly but probably a smart choice considering some of the people who will buy these figures.
>>6361202
I had an unemployed friend who was a good artist and I told him to just do porn requests from fetishists cause they pay out the ass, and many of them have LOW standards.
>>6361202
>a fucking shit ton
Not true.
It's easy to get money, but you won't earn "a fucking shit ton" unless you're professional-tier and have a strong following.
>>6359713
You realize that poll was just to gauge interest and did not mean Bandai has to make all of those characters, right?
>>6361173
Yes. Both he and police dude are exhibition exclusives at the Shonen Juml exhibition in Japan which starts in July.
>>6361171
Little girls aren't the ones buying figuarts though, and adult fans never forget an old team.
>>6361294
On the contrary, I saw one buy a figuarts at Barnes and Noble last week.
>>6361367

Man it's too bad seban butchered that adaptation, otherwise that little girl would be kinda bad ass.

Yeah that's the point, how many adult collectors spend money on PreCure merch compared to Sailor Moon/CCS/Madoka?

>>6360251
the internet is your friend. You wanna make money doing art? Fucking draw every day. That's the only way you're going to improve. There is no easy way out on this. There is no way to just go somewhere and improve magically. Stop leeching off the system and giving people that actually need the assistance a bad name and put some fucking effort into your life.
>>6360251
Hey,
Shut up
>>6361271
Thanks. That sucks.
>>6359299
>I swear eBay should have some kind of enforcement where nothing can be sold for a price over its actual retail value. That'd stamp out scalpers for good.
So, a rare postage stamp, originally costing half a cent, would sell for half a cent, despite being valued at hundreds by collectors?
That makes sense. I'm sure ebay will implement that change immediately, wondering why they never thought of it themselves, as soon as you share the idea with them.
Have they made any other female Riders than nadeshiko and Kiva-La so far?
>>6362028
Femme, I think.
>>6362028
Does Tackle count? IIRC she has a Figuarts.
>>6362028
Nadeshiko, Femme, Kivala, Tackle if you want to count her, and I think there was a prototype of Sorcerer but she's never happening.
>>6362082
Which one is the best figure?
>>6350191
>I wonder if it's because you can move the hop joint up and down, and this wasn't posed properly.
please let this be the case
>>6362126
Kivala, probably, as she's the most recent. They're all of lesser quality than, say, an SHFSS, but, Kivala isn't bad. I prefer her to my Nadeshiko even though I like Nadeshiko's design better.
I don't own Femme, but I remember complaints.
>>6362380
>They're all of lesser quality than, say, an SHFSS
SHFSS meaning?

So I just watched the Anthony's Customs review of the TDK Batman and I'm not so sure if I'm as hyped anymore. It seems really gap-y. Like, I can get over minor gaps, but his neck and wrists really bother me. I know in TDKR he gets a slimmer suit (I think) and do you think they're do a regular re-release to fix the minor problems, if at all, or will they just wait until the TDKR release to do that, if they do it at all? Or if they even decide to fix it. Idk but overall I'm not sure if I should get it for the initial release price.
>>6360328
>better than the three other versions of Kinnikuman
>event exclusive
>>6362710
I saw that review and it honestly looks great to me, not to mention the facesculpt is much better than Mafex and won't fall apart. I'm also not even fan of the suit, but I'd buy it because of the movie. Same reason why I would never bother with a TDKR version.
>>6362832
Idk, he just seems really thick but I haven't seen TDK in a while. I'll likely still get it, I just want to be sure of how much disappointment I'm in for, ya feel?
>>6360569
Sinceyou're such a n00b, /toy/ has always had posters like that.
One of the most infamous ones was Queen Kittan and he basically argued that toys are a necessity in life and the government owes its citizens to give them money for toys.
He was also a Chavlander, so it seems pretty normal for people over there to be very entitled.
Got Manga Colors Warsman today since I've given up hope of the Anime color version ever getting a re-release. He's my first Kinnikuman Figuarts, and aside from the lack of toe joint he's pretty great.
>>6363016
Alternate heads are pretty great.
>>6363018
Small comparison with Revol Mini Warsman. Helmet and shoulderpads were very reflective, so I gotta blur that shit up.
Overall this is a very nice figure, I should probably get a Kinnikuman Figuarts for him to fight with as well.
>>6362710
TDK and TDKR are the same.
so what about barbosa? because jack a shit
the new movie basically confirmed my suspicions that the pirates movies are actually about barbosa the same way the star wars movies are actually about anakin and not luke
the plot of every movie revolved around barbosa being the key player to everything, and jack was always just some guy bumbling along for the ride and occasionally being helpful, but more often than not getting in the way and ruining everything
Superman Figuarts when?
>>6363288
A few years ago?
>>6363304
Silly anon, so like I was saying
Superman Figuarts when?
>>6363016
Out of my 11 Kinnikuman figs, OG Warsman is my favorite, along with Soldier
>>6363307
Out of my 17 Kinnikuman figs, all of them are my favorite, especially Soldier
>>6363312
>none of them are wrestling
>>6358464
Since We got a Jack Sparrow SHF, Descendants 2 SHFs, when? (To be fair they can reuse Jack Sparrow's design for Uma.)
>>6363306
They made one a few years ago for that Injustice game.
>>6363484
Might as well be called Ultraman
>>6360939
Nice. Though considering she's the posters favorite senshi you have to wonder why the fuck they'd wait. I spent extra fucking with Nippon Yassan just to get her ASAP when she came out. I have no idea why she's passed up for reissue but frankly Super Jupiter is 90% the same figure so I don't get the fuss.
>>6363605
My man what kind of Ultraman have you been watching to even remotely think the two look the same.
>>6364473
Not him, but there's an actual western character named Ultraman. Maybe he's referring to that?
>>6364473
The american one.
>>6364487
america fuck everything
Have the building sets sold well at all? Are there any plans for additional sets? I'd love some industrial buildings.
>>6365178
The fact that they're selling unpainted plastic buildings for close to $20... Even the plastic vfx explosions and waves make more sense to be priced at that range. They add a lot more to the display than unpainted buildings.
>>6365178
>>6365192
You're better off printing your own on bristol or something.
Any idea how easy to get the Figuarts Zero Sailor Saturn will be after release? I'm eyeing her pretty hard but I've got another webshop thing I'm planning to get and I don't know if I can blow $100+ on pre-orders right now
>>6365371
Bluefin releases them, and the other Sailor Moon Zeros seem like they're still easy to get, so she might be okay for a while
>>6365497
Completely forgot about bluefin, thanks. Think she'll go up on amazon soon (or if not, where I should look besides bbts)?
>>6364780
they arr rook same
>>6363605
But it's still Superman regardless how much you pretend it's not.
>>6366350
I can pretend all I want seeing as how I don't own that piece of shit.
Dr Strange has a nice box
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvObA_d0bbk
>>6366350
It's Superman, sure, but when someone says they want a Superman figure they don't mean Injustice's Evil Dictator Supes.
>>6365688
wat
>>6367465
all ultramen look the same
is that racist?
>>6367467
very
>>6366863
That's a big box.
Anyone know where I can still grab Chewbacca for a reasonable price?
>>6367061
Can we have movie neck snapping supes instead?
Are they ever going to release shredder or splinter from the tmnt series ?
>>6367970
Shredder, yes.
>>6367977
Cool thanks man! Is there info on it?
>>6367999
He got revealed a year ago, so hopefully he'll get a release date soon.
>>6368004
>Display only
>"They showed it at an event so hopefully we'll get it soon right?"
Oh anon how naive you are
>>6368139
He got shown off at this year's Tamashii world tour as well. I don't think we really need to worry about getting him.
>>6368152
The only thing is is he going to be in scale with the turtles?
>>6368352
Found it
>>6368354
looks hot!
Knoe who needs a figuarts?
>>6368784
Fuck you
>>6368784
Looks like Judge Vinsmoke.
>>6365497
You say this but Jupiter's Zero is super expensive like her figuarts has become.
>>6367522
>that's a big shipping fee
was fixing your comment part of your plan?
Did Japan like LOTR? I wouldn't mind Figuarts of the characters seeing as the only figures from the series AFAIK are super old and not very poseable.
>>6369183
Bandai would probably release like three characters and call it quits.
Since most effect parts are by Tamashii I figured this would be the best place to ask.
Where can I find effects on the cheap? I know they run for 15-20 but amazon they are going for 30-35 and it got me wtfing.
HLJ? Amiami?
>>6369500
Bandai makes a lot of of good ones, but something to note is that most of their best stuff ended up being pre-order bonuses for some honestly really obscure shit. Like, you'd think they'd sell pic related on it's own, but nope, you've gotta hunt that shit down on the aftermarket.
am I the only one?
>>6369183
i would army build ring wriaths and urk hai. :(
>>6369544
Nah, son. Waiting for this figure and Tiger Dark to be released.
>>6369144
How expensive is "super expensive" to you? I had them for $50 for months and months and sold exactly 0. Now I have her with the other 4 plus Super Moon for $225 and have sold a whopping 1.
>>6369544
I was going to buy him, but I'm sick of toys in general now. Also don't have much display space anymore.
>>6363016
are these the same body type they used for stone cold/the rock/hhh?
>>6369966
Yep, fighting archetype or whatever.
They debuted with the Kinnikuman stuff after all, before the /wooo/.
anyone notice the ultraman figures in the background of the new silicon valley episode? pretty cool.
>>6369452
I would be happy with Aragon, gandalf and a Ringwraith.
But they'll probably release a damn hobbit.

are you retarded
>>6373618
You think you know better than a company that bases itself on studying what people want and people don't? You realize there's a whole studies when it comes to this kind of stuff.
Why you think they release a Goku every time instead of the Ginyu Force?
>>6373618
Are you?
>honestly expecting them to go back to an old MCU movie to do forgettable villain #9999 even though the figure of the CW iteration of the protagonist from that movie took nearly a year to finally sell out even after multiple sale prices
>While also trying to keep up with the current MCU movies
>>6372700
Is there even a difference with the Civil War suit besides the shitty recoloring?
>>6373974
>honestly expecting them to go back to an old MCU movie
Never implied I expected this, just that it's absolutely retarded Yellowjacket didn't get a single 1/12 scale figure back when Ant-Man was new. Not even Figuarts specifically, it didn't even get a Marvel Legends.
You can't just say something absolutely wouldn't sell when there's no evidence because nothing was ever made
>>6374158
They have people who's entire job is to research and determine just that, actually. The fact it doesn't exist is a pretty decent sign of the fact it wouldn't.
>>6374158
I would have probably bought an SHF YellowJacket...if the villain was any good in the movie (he was not). I loved the design and I love SHF so I would have gotten it on sale...but let's face it: it would have been an exclusive. Which is the reason that I'm pretty unexcited about future marvel SHF releases.
u knoe?
>>6374930
Fuck, I forgot how much I love these designs.
>>6375057
they're pretty great. i hope they get some form of love in the future. omegamon has had the spotlight for way too long
>>6374473
Those people are not infallible, idiot.
>>6368784
I knoe, even though I'm probably the only person that cares about her and we'd never get best design anyhow.
>>6375838
I'd kill for Figuarts of the The Clone Wars versions of Ahsoka, Anakin, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Assaj Ventress, Po-Flun or whatever his name is, Dooku, Grievious, etc. Given how stylized they are it seems like it'd be a lot easier to pull them off without worrying about likeness rights, photo-realism on the faces, etc.
