>>2nd versions all have awful color choice
Why are you so obsessed with this? Seriously, there are several really good recolors in this line for you to be so negative about it. Here are some undeniably great recolors.
>WF Jonathan
>WF Pucci
>Bruno 2nd
>Mista 2nd
>WF Gio
>Gio 2nd, even if the pain job isnt the best it's a nice colorway
>Jotaro 2nd
>Kira 2nd
>KQ 2nd
>WF KQ
>WF GER
This is mostly a personal thing but just can't you call all of this awful choices. This is exactly what Medicos wants you to think, buy this shitty Gyro just because you're alright with the colors, and when 2nd comes around and is just better in a everyway, you'll pick it up too.

OP here, I overlooked it but when I copied and edited that post I didn't notice that the last anon put that in without checking if it was actually painted.

MFC has this shot and it was dated a 4 days ago so the info was wrong and most of the girls are unpainted it seems.

He was referring to "all" as in Johnny, Valentine, and D4C.

And a couple of those 2nds are pretty displeasing, at least to me.

What colorway is everyone hoping for/expecting for Gyro 2nd? I think bubblegum Gyro is pretty likely (he'd go well with a blue or green Johnny), or maybe blonde with his wine-colored shirt. Probably won't ever get that sweet leopard cape, though.

Blue shirt gyro, similar to Joseph color, and really blonde hair with white pants!

>>6468919
>>6468935
Whenever a blonde Gyro comes out, it's going to end up being the most pricy and sought-after one.

I actually kind of like the bubblegum gyro though, put it with a blue or green Johnny and it's aesthetic as fuck.

How long does it usually take for mandy to send payment requests? I've been ordering from them for a year now and they usually send it within a day or two, yet it's been like 4 days since I ordered Gappy and I'm not getting anything

Email them, maybe your order got lost in a shuffle.

I hope that Baoh goes up for retail sale.
It would be weird for both versions to be exclusive but with Medicos who knows?

I absolutely won't buy a blue and pink Gyro.
I don't care if he is my favorite manga character.
That is just ugly.
I would like any of the blonde Gyros and might be able to tolerate a green haired Gyro.

Something is going on on their end because I'm having the same issue. I ordered a SHF Ash to go with my Gyro order 4 days ago and they still haven't gotten to me. Just sent them a third email today after they gave me the payment warning and I stated why I haven't paid yet.

>>6468919
I could accept the rightmost one. That might be the only preexisting alt color scheme for Gyro I could handle, honestly.

I'm going to be so butthurt if it's neon nightmare Gyro.

>posability
Star Platinum Part 4 without a doubt but I always wondered how fun the Kinnikuman SAS are.

>scale
IBM, he's tall and even the base/arm reflected that since it's noticeably bigger than the usual SAS base.

>accessories
Part 3 Dio is pretty fun but I'm leaning on Annasui or Shinichi from Parasyte as my top accessory picks.

>visuals/details
IBM from Ajin again. Simple black but the texture all over is great with the open head being a nice addition. It really lends something distincitve with the lanky look he has.

>terms of character
Kira, it helps he has 3 different head sculpts to mess around with though only 2 colorways of the same body.
>>
>>6469477
accessories aside, probably the hand. Feels like the hidden gem of this line, very overlooked. Ive heard of some qc issues with the hand second but mine is perfect, it looks incredible and the articulation is great. Couldnt ask for more.
>>
>>6469477

>Posability
Part 2 Joseph or Giorno for me

>Scale
I really like how large The World is, I have yet to get any of the PB or Pillar Men characters other than Kars

>accessories
Once again Part 2 Joseph, either that or Kira

>visuals/details
I don't have him yet but Whitsnake looks really good out of the ones I own however, I think WF Gold Experience looks fantastic

>terms of character
WF Joseph, Kira, and Giorno are probably all my favorites

Gyro came in today. The plastic quality noticeably cheap. His head, especially, is very low-grade compared to other SAS. There's some light shading, but it might as well not be there at all. I managed to get one without any paint fuckups though, which is nice. His eyes really are soulless without the highlights though. (Although the RAH doesn't have highlights either and manages to look more expressive.) His head is also on some weird fucking peg which is unlike any other SAS; I really don't care for it.

Despite all that, he's not a bad figure, he just falls really far from the mark of what one would expect from Medicos--which is already a low bar to begin with. For all its faults, it's still nice to have a Gyro in this scale.
>>
>>6469496
I have the Robin Mask SAS and he's easily the most flexible figure I own. I wish they had continued the line instead of letting it drop to Revoltech and Figuarts.

>>6470049
All they had to do was release a Kinnikuman; the namesake character of the goddamned series.

It's ridiculous to try and market a line towards a fanbase and not make the main character; and downright insulting to regurgitate recolors of side characters nobody wanted or needed and say "welp, nobody seemed interested so we should cut our losses."
>>
>>6469715
Yep, he has the effect. Pretty much the only reason to get it if you already have Jotaro, unless you really love the character or the colors.
>>
Are there any figures in the JoJo line that should not be touched even by completionists such as myself?
>>
>>6470154
Swarovski and clear versions of figures unless you have the money to pay for them.
>>
>>6469999
I think they'll wait on wf exclusives untill they see if they'll sell at all.
>>
>>6470157
Oh, not even I'm after those. They don't even look good to me. I'm talking about the "actual" figures.
>>
>>6470171
Okay then, DIO ver. Black might be one to avoid then, he has a lot of QC issues mainly that his right leg falls off. Only go for him if you really like the colors or want the punch effects.
>>
>>6470183
Oops, too late.

>>6469715

There's supposedly a fanbase in Japan but I have no idea if it's actually prominent or just a growing target segment to make figures for versus other companies within this scale range.

Medicos has picked different series (Parasyte but opting for the manga design instead of the recent anime design for Shinichi, Ajin due to the anime, Drifters, again due to the anime and Tokyo Ghoul). However, it feels like a shotgun approach strategy just to see what areas they can tackle beyond just JJBA. Someone must've shown the heads something of merit to justify RWBY and make all those girls like the other series.
>>
>>6470768
You should have gotten suspicious from the moment they picked up a Rooster Teeth IP.
>Parasyte but opting for the manga design instead of the recent anime design for Shinichi
This a nice thing to do tho, it drives me up the wall when the opposite is done, like with Eva, HxH and Berserk.

I didn't say it wasn't nice but if Medicos wanted to do Parasyte I suspected the anime design of high school Shinichi would be the obvious pull for an SAS figure. I really wish they would revisit since someone drew up a Nendoroid mock-up and I figure it would be easy to translate to a full 6 inch figure going by the accessories shown off but also the current offerings of the original with the extended arm and bladed hand options.
>>
>>6470774
I really wish Medicos had played to its strengths and tackled series that fit its sculpting style.

For example, I think they could have done fantastic work on the likes of Berserk, Guyver, Dorohedoro, etc. Or even certain videogame licenses, I would have loved to see their detailed sculptwork on Dark Souls or MGS.

I mean, it's Gyro, and there's no guarantee that his second color scheme will fix any of the issues this one had, nor is there any guarantee that it will be good.

Like, if it's just going to suck ass anyway, I'd rather a preferable color scheme that sucks ass than the potential for a ass-sucking neon nightmare like we got in EoH.

The original release has pretty shit hips so the best you can do is glue that to a position you definitely want and work off that. The reissue fixes that if you're willing to replace him and if the store listing notes that it's a reissue or a reproduction.

They went the route with smaller hip joints so the legs can achieve the splits like that. There's enough freed up space from the sculpt to allow that which is a step forward for articulation. The shoulder setup may be new to Gyro since he doesn't use butterfly joints.

I've been wondering this too. It's not the paint, it's the plastic. Why does his head use a different kind of plastic than every other JJBA SAS? I don't know about the quality of the Drifters figures, but something must've happened between the release of Rohan 3rd and Gyro. Did they switch factories? Did they use cheaper materials as a cost-cutting measure? The change is baffling.
>>
>>6472053
It could be due to the horses. They might have considered that SBR characters would require diferent poses so softer plastic could benefit that. Or maybe just to save money by using cheaper plastic
>>
>>6472129
The horses wouldn't have anything to do with their heads, though.
>>
>>6472136
some horse running poses would require him to move his head up if he's leaning forward. In that case the long hair could be really restrictive being hard. That might also have to do with the different peg for the head. Just guessing anyway. Most likely they just cutted cost with cheaper plastic

Gyro came in today. The face is flawed but not nearly as bad as everyone has been saying. All the problems sort of fade away unless you look really closely at him. Everything else is top notch. I barely even notice how the plastic is cheaper.

Got Gyro myself a couple of days ago. My only real complaint is the lifeless eyes, but if people would just look past that for a moment, the figure's articulation is really quite impressive. Getting him into more dynamic poses actually makes him look great. They almost had another Joseph with this figure.
>>
>>6475001
His articulation does seem great, seems like he can pull off most of his manga poses. That only makes the shitty paint even more disappointing though.

It's an insanely unoriginal design, it's been done a bajillion times before, and infinitely better as well.
The show itself has horrible CGI animation that makes the 2016 Berserk series look like the pinnacle of animation, and it shows even in the figure.
Nobody should support this sort of trash.

And all of this is completely ignoring the horrible company that is Rooster Teeth.

DESU, RWBY season 1 was kinda mediocre, but the rest of the show is pretty nice. If nothing else I like the hot girls and the action is well done, I could care less about the rest. I wanted to pull the trigger on Ruby, but for $90? With THAT little accessories? And those THOSE faces?

NO.


FUCK NO.

HELL FUCKING NO.

I thought Max Factory was bad, but Medicos is making them look like fucking Bandai right now. I hope this bins hard and they either cancel the other 3 or fix thier fucking price tags.

I hope Medicose goes out of business and somone else gets all their licenses, they're not worthy of ANY of them, especially Jojo.

Medicos used to be so fucking amazing. Great paint, sculpts, articulation, and accessories; releasing a figure every single month. (Especially since the best thing we had for JJBA prior to that were the Kotobukiya ones.) And now, all anyone does is hope they go out of business because of how shitty they've gotten. Every new release is another new disappointment. I wonder if Japanese consumers feel the same and have complained to them?

If Medicos losses money over this venture I'll curse Monty into his next life and beyond. I get the feeling so few of the fan base would spend real money on the series.

Japan ain't stupid, I think they're pissed too.
>>
>>6475764
If Medicos loses money over this they fucking deserve it. It's not Monty's fault that Medicos is a shit company.

Personally I think the RWBY fan base is willing to spend money, there's pleanty of merch for the series as is. But I don't think they're the kind of fans to spend $90 on one tiny figure, much less all four.
>>

I can only hope Medicos is paying attention to them, because they sure as hell aren't paying attention to western fans.

Why would they? Their market is predominately Japanese/in Asia.

>>6475825
That doesn't mean they should just ignore such a big market. There's still a lot of westerners who buy their products.
>>
>>6475834
It's not like DBZ where the Western market is actually significant.

Regardless, Japanese collectors aren't all that different than Western collectors in the sense that they don't want shit products ie. Gyro. It doesn't matter if Medicos ignores the Western market in this case.
>>
>>6475825
Because they can sell more figured for s higher price to firthy gaijin because they can trick us, but even the mightiest of jap lies can only fool someone for so long, and the allure of these figures is dwindling fast, also the western/American market for this kind of thing is arguably bigger than in japan

I don't think he feels cheap. It seems like they went with a softer plastic for him. I don't think it's bad, but I can see why people think he's cheap. He's for sure not the colored prototype quality but what ever is. I might be in a minority but I think he was worth it for me.

Man, all this autism is amazing, next cringe thread can just have screen caps of people absolutely losing their mind over toys in this thread.
>>
>>6476124
random unrelated question, which of those four megamen in the background would you say is the best overall?
>>
>>6476124
He is literally the only character to have ZERO shading (despite being advertised as having it) and to be made of softer plastics which retain less detail. Is he "bad" in the grand scheme of things? No. Is he bad for an SAS? Hell yes.
>>
>>6475958
I don't understand why everyone thinks America is the place JoJo sells the best than, oh I don't know, the country of origin
Is it because of all the western music references?
It makes me embarrassed to be an American
>>6476124
>but what ever is
Nigga almost every other SAS look way closer to the prototype images than Gyro
Sure they aren't perfect either, but they thousands of miles closer to their protoypes than Gyro is.
>>
>>6476137
It's there. It's not good but it's there.
>>6476143
Probably X. I feel he can do more and has more detail. He's also bulkier so the cheapness in him isn't as noticible. They're all good tho and go great with my 4 inch nels.
>>
>>6475637
What, I can't get a figure I was already highly tempted to get to begin with simply to further upset some childish people?
Seems more autistic that you are getting upset about it.
>>
>>6476124
He honestly doesn't look too bad in your picture in my opinion. Just the lips, eyes, and hair look not too great.

People are weird about toys from shitty CG shows.
The same thing kind of happened with the Kemono Friends Figma.
People were complaining about the ugly weird faces like Serval didn't always look like that.

It's shitty anime cg, no doubt, but none of the characters looked like fat faced dolls.

Out of curiosity, what color scheme where you hoping for? Cause the prototype probably has the least offensive colors they could have picked, just like Gyro. Avoids the onesie look the color scans have.

My beef with my Gyro is his lipstick looks incredibly sloppy. I think one of the big reasons he looks terribad in general is the bad shading and his pants/skin being too close in color.

It wouldn't be so bad if they weren't so fucking expensive.

Mista and Nanarcia are pretty fun from what I've seen and read in past threads. I barely see much of Abbachio and Moody Blues, and Bruno/Sticky Fingers are always fun if you can work with the zipper acessories. Fugo and Purple Haze are solid also.

Go for Mista first since he has a strong acessory setup and work a bit towards who displays best with others.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this. But I ordered a used Okuyasu from Solaris Japan a while ago. They tried to deliver the package 3 times and apperently the attempt failed every time, even though I was there the entire day the last time they tried to deliver it. The last time they tried to deliver it was on July 29, too and I haven't heard anything about the whereabouts of my package since. Should I be worried? Should I contact Japan Post? How can I contact them, when I don't speak moon?

Does anyone have pictures of Gyro's neck joint? I've seen people mention that his head is on a peg and not the usual ball joint, but I haven't seen any photos of it.
>>
>>6478312
Bruno and Mista are my recommendations for first picks.
Mind you, the 2nds look great together, but I don't think Bruno 1st would be good to display by Mista 2nd's side, since both are white, and vice-versa too, both being blue. I don't actually have the first versions, but I did get Gio 2nd first and he didn't look very nice by Bruno 2nd's side, since both are blue, so I guessed this could be a similar case for Mista and Bruno. Pink Giorno by Blueno and Mista 2nd is amazing tho.

It's been a while since I posted my collection.
Overall I'm pretty happy with the results but I'm not to sure about the two boxes in the middle where Gappy is
What's next for me guys? I've been delaying buying Killer Queen for 9 months now, the price is a turn off but I'll get it eventually, S&W eventually too. Gyro is on his way. Debating between Diavolo or Bruno, or just go for Giorno and Gold Expirience and call it a day with the Jojos
>>
>>6478712
Diavolo is my personal favorite of that bunch sheerly due to his gorgeous paint apps and colorway. Killer Queen is fun as fuck to mess with though due to his great articulation, and Bruno is a fantastic figure with very creative accessories
>>
>>6471537
Same thing happened to me. I thought it was the reissue but yeah just tore apart at the same place your did.

I'm planning on getting revoltech joints and replacing the entire assembly. I'll loose the sculpting on the parts, but trade off on pose ability
>>
>>6478749
Yeah was leaning towards him too, he looks great in every regard
>>
>>6478366
I think he thinks it would be a good idea to contact Japan Post because they might know the whereabouts of his package, not because he actually lives there.

There's no reason why you would use Solaris if you lived there anyway.

>>6470701

This looks awesome. So are the Stardust Crusader's figures all a slightly smaller scale than the others? And is there more than one version of series 3 Jotaro?
>>
>>6479357
There's a total of 3 colorways (Black 1.5 with soundplate, Blue 2nd, Green 3rd with Punch Effects)
>>
>>6479357
Thanks! Yes, part 3 & 4 figure are slightly smaller scale from the rest of the line. As another anon stated, there are 3 different P3 Jotaros, 4 if you differentiate between 1 & 1.5(difference being 1.5 along with all following versions if the figure have an improved head sculpt with the head being more properly proportioned in 1.5).
>>
Is anyone else starting to warm up to neon colors for Gyro? I honestly think something like this doesn't look so bad now.
>>
>>6479464
It comes down to how Medicos handles the paintwork. Otherwise I can somewhat hope they would pick more varied color themes for Part 7 versus the neon everyone believes.
>>
>>6479464
That is fucking awful.
I would still buy it but that is only because Gyro is my favorite character.
A neon Johnny or Funny would be hard for me to pull the trigger for.
Hopefully they don't go all part 6 on us with some characters being Lisa Frank monstrosities and others being relatively subdued.
I am really thinking Medicos has more or less given up though and that no colorsceme will look good.
>>
>>6479495
Quit being racist it looks good
>>
>>6479464
I genuinely wonder how anime part 7 would be colored. None of gyro's colorations have been very tv friendly.

Maybe more earth toned and go the usual approach of full on bright colors for the right scenes.
