Is the same guys always bringing up realistic armored toys, or are we that big of a public?
>>
>>6356328
I asked the guys at BFS if they would do more historically accurate armored figures for their generic fantasy line. It would be pretty cool to get some guys with jackets of plate, hauberks, earlier mail shirts to later total mail coverage, mail coiffs etc.

I mean the Mythic Legions line fulfills these requirements. Have a better suggestion?
>>
>>6356378
ML are way too flashy. The armors are ornate, they kind you use for parades and stuff but not for combat. Those plumes and long pieces of cloth just ask to be grabbed and give the opponent domination.
Something worn out, battle damaged, with nice rub out painting job, that would be awesome.

I mean, not really. Especially depending on the time frame you're talking. The Middle Ages/Medieval Era is a huge span of time with a lot of different armor developments and changes when you're talking just Europe.

Could always get the less flashy army builder ones, scuff it up and give it a wash with some black acrylic like what this anon did

Just buy one of the regular knights and not Jorund Runeshaper and you'll be good.

its about as realistic as Warcraft armor.
>>
>>6355071

There's a bunch of super fantasy-style figure but Legions are great because 99% of modern knight figures are Monster Hunter tier bullshit and they are mostly plain suits of armor.

Is there a picture anywhere? I googled Revoltech Knight and Batman keeps coming up.

>>6358124

I hope they sell one without the horse so I can buy a bunch.

Aaah, I remember how subjectanon made these threads regularly to shit on dark souls and shill mythic legions.
>>
>>6358124

all i can take from the blogpost is the name "kaiyodo Takeya Freestyle Ornament Western armor".but cant find more info
>>
>>6358124

Nothing has been announced that I know.
Maybe next WonFes there'll be some news.
>>

>kaiyodo Takeya Freestyle Ornament Western armor

Their MFC pages say "release 2017", so they might be dropping sooner that I was expecting.

That's an interesting translation for Jizai Okimono, I like it.

They are either waiting on finishing the Samurai counterpart so they could be released back to back, or launch it along with their reboot distribution system to catch more eyes.

Or just having trouble coming up with the right balance of price and inclusions of parts, like with our without horse, just horse armor, etc.

We should get a better idea at WF.

They could do what Max Factory does, make a DX package and charge premium prices for those willing to pay extra.

You talking about these? Are they planning any more?
>>
>>6363228
We don't even have a release date for the knight yet. There's a good chance we'll get a samurai next, but I'm hoping it just spawns a line and we get some crusaders later on.
>>
>>6363228
wow. Fuck mythic legions is all I can say. Would love to get a couple of these with and without the horse.
>>
>>6363324
>Fuck mythic legions is all I can say
I don't see why you'd say that. It's not like the two lines are competition, or can't both excel at what they're going for. Mythic Legions is a fantasy line that takes liberties because it's fiction and can do that. This is a realistic knight based on real world armor because heavily detailed figures are what Takeya does.
>>
>>6363337

The Takeya ones look more fantasy to me than the basic ML knights even though they are more "realistic." Anyways I will be buying tons of both lines.
