Which new announcement are you most excited for? Who do you want to see next from the new IPs? What other IP do you think Kaiyodo might turn into Revoltechs?
>>11280119>all those announcements in that short period of timeRevo-bros, are we back?...
>>11280131We were back when they announced like 10 things at once a few wonfes ago. Sachiel is a feat not even old Revoltech line achieved.
>>11280123Personally I want "The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World" to get some and they must be AY. A good workaround to doing Sentai (and others hint hint) without being Bandai. Not as direct as DK figmas but the designs for this series are actually decent for a homage, parody types. Like they feel they could be on TV Sunday morning. Other 2 I can think of are not that well thought out.I had no idea it was getting an anime so hoping there might be a small chance.
What a waste of time most of these projects are when they could do actual good shit that deserves proper revos
>>11280140Looking for the robot's anime design I noticed Koto is making a kit. But even then I still want a Yamaguci one. It'll be like the new GaoGaiGar figure we never got. We still might just get a GGG, the mechas thus far are all really popular ones.
>>11280143wah wah wah
My favorite Danmachi girls are Ryuu and Haruhime. It would be nice if either got a figure.
>>11280123I think strong possibilities exists with Solo Leveling. I know very little of it but it's popular no? Characters don't look that interesting but maybe there are some good potentials for Revos in there besides the most generic anime man protagonist. And MHA Vigilantes of course.
>>11280119Fingers crossed for a Revoltech Marcille/Laios
>>11280123I think Devil May Cry has a chanceRevoltech is already doing 2 Capcom IPs
>>11280123>Which new announcement are you most excited for? Sachiel.>Who do you want to see next from the new IPs?Bardiel and Zeruel.I don't care if that's not their Rebuild names.
>>11280192Maybe. Then I think what kept them before? It feels easier to just do a few DMC characters before going through all the trouble for Koei Tecmo games. They're the sameish demographics. So I wonder if the demand is even that strong. I think DMC games sold more than NGs and DOAs combined? But worldwide so Japan might be different. If they move on to DOA there are probably more marketable characters to exploit. And by exploit I mean their beach volleyball versions.
>>11276274>>11276531>>11278056Seems we got an answer about that, at least for the MHA and Delicious in Dungeon license.maoji confirmed he was the one who sculpted the figuarts Deku, so under that logic, he also made the other ones announced too.In the same vein he also was in charge of figma Laios and Marcille so it makes sense he is also the one making the catgirl.Tl:drRevoltech MHA line is ded, the SHFiguarts line is the spiritual sucessor
>>11280143Give us an example then, faggot
>>11280203The other basic EVAs including 03 seem like a no brainer, and so will be her angel form. I guess we always got Angels in the past but a cop out one. It would be stupid to make 01 and not design her so a few molds change you can get a half dozen or so EVAs.. Even more baddies EVAs with a different abdomen section. Rebuild's Zeruel is weird, it's no longer a somewhat humanoid form but more like a Tenga then an octopus. Or that half Rei form that's even more of a mess with the head section. Also really huge for both forms so forget scaling. I think more than the TV ver. If they intended to do Zeruel they picked TV versions for everyone from the start.
>>11280297>maoji confirmed he was the one who sculpted the figuarts DekuDamn he really gets around. I liked figma Gabi better than the SHF.
>>11280332>If they intended to do Zeruel they picked TV versions for everyone from the start.I forgot how huge Zeruel was in Rebuild. Honestly I wouldn't complain if they did OG Zeruel instead. The Angels all have such abstract designs that apart from the ones I listed plus Shamsel, and Israfel from the OG series, most of them just wouldn't make decent figures, or would be so insanely huge as to be impractical. Sahaquiel fits both categories. Maybe the Third Angel from the start of 2.0 would be decent.Though if Kaiyodo wants to give me a Ramiel model kit including several forms that will require me to assemble a hundred polyhedrons into a specific configuration, i won't complain.
>>11280119>not interested in any of themDamn unlucky
>>11280297>Revoltech MHA line is dedWhat? Say it’s not so…
>>11280399Mirko isn't even out yet, Toga just went up for preorder, and Kaiyodo haven't said shit.This conjecture is all based on the fact that Maoji sculpted the MHA SHFs, but doesn't take into account that as far as we know, Maoji (until we hear otherwise) is independent and gets contracted to sculpt figures for each company instead of being an in-house designer.
>>11280222>It feels easier to just do a few DMC characters before going through all the trouble for Koei Tecmo gamesAcquiring licenses is never a bad thing, especially when you get access to action series that AY is known for. KT gets them an in with NG, DOA, and Atelier, and if they felt inclined there's infinite Dyansty Warriors characters to go through.As long as they're playing ball with Capcom, I think DMC's on the table, simply because that would fit well with the line. I think they're focused on MonHun and Street Fighter currently because that's what Capcom is focused on, but it wouldn't be a big stretch to sneak in a Dante somewhere. And if Dante's popular, they'd get incentive for Nero and Vergil, and so on.Personally I'd like them to go hard with a variety of Capcom figures and give us what would amount to an unofficial MvC line, but that might be pushing it.
>>11280409Take your meds
>>11280414>and if they felt inclined there's infinite Dyansty Warriors characters to go through.Oh god I wish... Lu Bu, Sun Ce, Zhang Liao, Orochi, Shimazu Yoshihiro, Nobunaga, Masamune, Ginchiyo...
>>11280587Post proof that Revo MHA is kill, or follow your own instructions.
>>11280119I wish Vulcanlog would return with reissue but that's just wishful thinking from me.
>>11280644I never said revo MHA line is dead. I'm calling the guy saying that a schizo, he has been saying for almost 5 months now, retard
>>11280662So why are you telling the anon that pointed out that the claim that's it's dead is nothing but conjecture to take his meds?Maybe you should lurk for two more years until you figure out how this whole 4chan thing works.
>>11280668Because I reply to the wrong anon, it was meant to this one >>11280297. >Maybe you should lurk for two more years until you figure out how this whole 4chan thing works.Lol imagine being proud to be an oldfag
>>11280297Isn't shf line made by that figma gabimaru dude? You meant to say shf mha is doa.
>>11280743>Lol imagine being proud to be an oldfagThere's no pride in it. It's just the way it is. I would tell you to leave now before it's too late, but the fact is that it's already too late for you.
It'll be interesting if SHF Toga was also sculpted by Maoji. IDK if two unrelated toylines have released the same character made by the same person before. If it was him. We have like Moderoid of Sentinel's Mazingers but that's intentional so not quite the same thing.
>>11280119>no regular blue kasumi>no Tina>no Honka
>>11280752I know almost nothing about the people who has worked for the SHF line but days ago maoji posted some of the figures he sculpted during this year, and SHF Midoriya was among them.
>>11280119>Still no Wolverine 2.0 or reissue
>>11280119I have enough of people not appreciating Rachel! Fuck Ayane, Kasumi and Momiji!
>>11280297Nuts, oh well I'm happy Marcille got a figure but I wish she was made by Kaiyodo.>>11281017It's just a matter of time at this point, but who knows when that'll happen.
>>11280935>no HonkaShe's my favorite Tekken figther girl
>>11280935Wake me up when Tina
>>11281017Give me Marvel Rivals Wolverine.
>>11281055I'd rather fuck Rachel too
>>11281553Jej
Kek
>>11281912wtf since when did AY make a steve buscemi figure?!
>>11281055Yea! Fuck Ayane, Kasumi and Momiji (lovingly)!
>>11281912
yamaguchi style punisher
>>11281912ITS THE YONKER I preordered the reissue of Anti Flash and Flash; I know there are the CT around, but I wonder if they fixed the complaints of the first batch
Can't wait to get Ryu! I'm probably going to get mine next month and that suck but hopefully he'll ship fast
>>11281912From when Joker was violated by those prison guards right
>>11282668Shit, I was hoping for a Mafex Punisher, but maybe I can live with this.
>>11281912Surely this can’t be real
>>11282668For punisher I'd prefer more muscles than that
>>11280414according to capcom's polls, dante is their most popular protagonist both worldwide and in japan.https://captown.capcom.com/en/super_elections/1
>>11283249everytime I have to see nu jill face I want to puke. I hate that shitty "remake" so fucking much and everyone who says that "its an okay game". It's not okay! It's never going to be ok!
>>11283249>Masamune date in the top 10Based japanese people
>>11283249>and in japanIf you pay more attention though, the characters' poll numbers for Japan are very close together. Where as for the favorite games/series DMC is not that high for Japan. These results don't speak "Dante is mega popular even in Japan" but just one of many. Like how certain anime is popular in the States but are nothing or mediocre in Japan. So for Revoltechs, a line clearly aimed towards Japan, I don't think his chance is any stronger than most Capcom IPs, certainly weaker than what they're doing now. Plus there are many other big name IPs currently being explored it just seems more unlikely now compared to say we just knew about MH AYs were coming. Maybe if the other Capcom revos they tried first all failed miserably.
CT guys made the right call giving this guy a pearlescent metallic color instead of pure white, it's majestic under the right lighting
>>11282668Day 1 if they make thisEvery modern punisher figure sucks ass and mezco is wack
>>11283249wtf is with that shitty art
>>11283259Realism has made those games dull and generic looking.
>>11280123i'd like some athletic or sport figuresmy dream would be an x-games line with skaters, bmxers, snowboarders etc i don't see any other company putting out figures that look so good in extremely dynamic posesthere isn't a market for it atm so it will never happen :(
>>11283675They sort of did something along that line before lol. Not what you're asking I know. Honestly if AY did the blanks properly and have the Expansion Pack sports edition I think we have a lot of people happy. It's a good 3rd pack to have after guns and melee weapons too. But that's also just copying what Bandai did...at least the items won't be grey too. That makes the items useless with other action figures.I also think they don't want to repeat UC's fatal failure of releasing 4 alternate uniforms of a manga baseball player. I'm sure that alone killed the Vulcanlogs.
>>11283813i'm always amazed by just how much kaiyodo stuff there is out there lol>Vulcanlogswhat is that if i may ask? i've seen that before next to revoltech titles "powered by vulcanlog" iirc
Where did this Revoltech resurgance come from? For the past few years it felt like they only did some Marvel, DC and MHA stuff but now they're getting more anime licenses. It's nice to have choices between figma and revo again depending on what design you prefer again.As far as wishes for new IPs:A modern Dante and more DMC characters would be ace. Never got the old DMC3 revo but I'm sure they can do much better now.Bayonetta would also be fun to have a good 1/12ish scale action figure of her on the market.I wonder if Marvel Rivals will inspire a Psylocke reissue. Missed the boat on that.If they're working with capcom, I'd love to see some SNK stuff since STORM figures are just a little to upscale for my taste. The Kyo and Iori figmas didn't seem to ignite much afterwards.I can't think to much anime IPs I'm gunning for that aren't already handled by figma and SHF but I'm willing to be surprised. I'd go for a wild card pick of the Skeleton Knight in another world just because I'm usually game for Skeletons and Knights action figures.Now if some gacha games wanted more merch out there there's def some granblues or nikkes that would make some fun revos.
>>11284116Shut the fuck up you braindead shftard
>>11284116fuck off wishlist fag
>>11283813>>11283910Fuck, I will forever mourn the Kaiyodo Vulcanlog stuff. But I'm also curious about what happened.>i'm always amazed by just how much kaiyodo stuff there is out there lolDitto, before lurking these threads I thoughts Kaiyodo started and ended with AY, hell I thought Revoltech and AY were done by the same sculptor.
>>11284116>If they're working with capcom, I'd love to see some SNK stuff since STORM figures are just a little to upscale for my tasteGod please, I really want more SNK figures that I can pose with the rest of my collection
>11284126>11284129aw, baby is angry? baby want (You)s this much?
>>11284116>>11284305for real, just imagine this perfect sculp but in 1/12
>>11284347*sculpt
>>11284116>Where did this Revoltech resurgance come from?I can think of two factors, maybe three. One is Kaiyodo got bought out. This happened a while ago and I'm not sure how long something like an increase of licenses takes in the background. But if the performance was unfavorable the solution by powers that be would be something like do more popular stuff. Second one is the change in distributors. There use to be three, Kaiyodo for Geo and Takeya, Kenelephant for AY, and Union Creative for Evangelion. Now it's all Kaiyodo. So by saving money cutting out the middleman they might have moved on to doing more. They needed some adjustment period so this might line up better with the rate of increase. Third is more short term change, and that is due to the poor performance by Kaiyodo 2020 and on. Massively in the red and barely in the black last year, they need to increase sales big and fast. So trying out a bunch of different and popular licenses is one way to deal with the problem.
Love the contrast these two haveNow I just need x-force deadpool to complete the white-gray-black gradient
>>11284358>the poor performance by Kaiyodo 2020 and on. Massively in the red and barely in the black last year,According to Yamaguchi's twitter, and if google translate is accurate, it sounds like Kaiyodo was profitable for 2024https://x.com/fuikitodoki/status/1874004828361548193
>>11284416Well they were "profitable" for 2023 technically kek. We should know by March about the exact numbers I think. I don't know what's their usual numbers in the past though, I only paid attention since it became know how bad they were doing recently. I hope what they're doing is working, it's nice to have variety.
>>11284416How was the company still around if they were losing money for several years?
>>11284514How is digimon still around if they NEVER generated profit
>>11284580Because it's Bandai's original IP.
>>11284644I didn't expect a brainlet answer so I have no comeback prepared.
>>11284580I like Digimon so I ask them to keep them around
>>11284514Companies can have several years of losses and not go out of business as long as they don't run out of money or lines of credit. This is how Disney has survived several years of Phase whatever the fuck of the Marvel movies + Soi Wars + Indiana Jones and the Colostomy Bag of Resurrection + all the toys not selling + whatever other shit has bombed in recent years.
>>11284514company dont go with normal market rules,every company own money to the banks and its in they interest to keep you hooked in
>>11284514>>11284735Kaiyodo is literally owned by banks.
>>11284580? Digimon does generate profit, the exact amount they expect it to at that. That's exactly why they keep it around at the level they do. The cards and v-pets sell just enough, the v-pets especially due to FOMO.
>>11284514What the others said, and you should keep in mind that it's not neccessarily terrible that "the company" as an entity is occasionally losing money as long as it's paying every employee their salaries and has decent prospects for the future. Then the next year it may make a profit if deals turn out better... or break even... and then make a profit, etc. and people are eating and living all the while.
luke is UP
>>11286846Everyone was hyped when he was announce, and now that he's up for preorder he doesn't even get a lukewarm response.
>>11287237>lukewarm
>>11286846Interesting he comes with a ryu face for the store exclusive yet we haven’t even seen ryu yet
>>11286846I say this as someone who plays SFI do not care
>>11287264Same, especially with Jada around, I’ve stopped caring about other companies’ SF releases
>>11287266I ordered Juri and will probably get Ryu at some point but SF6 Chun sucks and Luke can hang
>>11287237>>11286846Already PO'd him. Can't wait to play and pose the new main character and the face of SF beating the shit out of other fighters
>>11287266>muh jadaAt least say that you hate luke or something like that
>dabi arrives>torso joint shears off in a few minutes of posing fug man that's a first, guess I'm buying a pin vice
>>11287237HE WILL NEVER REPLACE RYU. luke is just another generic blonde pretty boy like ed. give us a cool character like leroy smith from tekken.
>>11289414Luke is still a better choice for a SF6 line, character and design wise, than the tranny fighters
>>11289416i would so love a 3rd strike alex figure over luke, WTF is a luke? too bad alex will never get the love he deserves because he is a grappler character.
>>11289432alex is an even more nobody than Luke. He's more forgettable than Rashid.
>>11289432Alex? You mean that even MORE generic blonde fighter hulk hogan rip off who tried so hard to be the new main character but failed unsurprisingly?
>>11289442alex is not a ripoff but a homage to hulk hogan. just like hugo is to andre the giant. i know he failed as the ryu replacement because he is a grappler character just like abel failed in SF4 for the same reason. >>11289439nah bro, alex will always be the goat in 3RD strike. SFV did him dirty tho.
Should I get the deathstroke and arkham knight fellas...?
>>11289445Abel was awful, his design was very plain.
>>11288889Update: I managed to fix the peg by putting a scre through the ball into the stalk but. holy fuck. this joint is un-fucking-believably tight. No WONDER it broke, not even bathing it in silicone makes a difference Anyone other anons have dabi? Is his pec rotation super tight or did I just fucking flop the QC lottery?
>>11290024Not sure are you talking about, the ball joints of the body? I didn't notice but ball socket joints are known to be wild in tightness from loose to tight. I usually have to sand down one of like the main four (hips, waist, torso). Some AYs they are all loose like Wonder Woman, first issue Deku, etc. BUT my Dabi was broken out of the box. One of the two hinges for the uhhh side-torso joints? The two sides of the jackets moves like the standard AY shoulder blade rotations. But not much ideally? One peg hole was split open. I glued the whole thing back on, since it doesn't do much for articulation in this instance. . Otherwise he's good.
>>11280119>SachielCOMPLETELY ERECT
>>11290039In the body, yeah. Specifically the one connecting his upper torso to the abs. I tried reattaching it after fixing the break but it was so tight that I swear I saw the socket flexing outwards when it was connected. The peg survived that shit though so I guess it means my fix worked. Just have some sanding to do.>One peg hole was split open. I think one of mine is like this too actually, it doesn't seem to change much though
>>11290088I see. Yeah never had a ball joint so strong it snaps the shaft. Iron Spider was sort of like that with strong ball joint but the peg was just glued into the torso, being much weaker it did came off. But I just sand it down and glued the peg back into the torso no worries.And yes those side pegs sticking out, the socket for that was split open and couldn't stay on. It's interesting way to maybe share the inner frame for other AY?
Anyone have an idea why BBTS doesn't have Genos up for PO? I already ordered from Genki with the bonus but also noticed Genki doesn't have a separate listing of the figure without a bonus. Is this normal for Revoltech?Separate question but how do you see who sculped the figure? I've read Yamaguchi is leaving, I'm late to the party so just trying to figure things out.
>>11291104>Yamaguchi is leaving Fuck, that guy has been sculpting Kaiyodo figures since 2001 at least, with the ToyTribe Trigun figures.
>>11284344>couldn't even reply correctly
>>11291104>I've read Yamaguchi is leavingWho told ya that?> how do you see who sculped the figure? Most accurate way is kyd-store but amiami usually tells you in the description. Before it gets there the announcements usually tells you but in Japanese. Anons here talks about sculptors all the time so you get a good idea being here.
>>11291104But something like the OP image doesn't tell you yet. You can make some guesses with the AY name and who did what before. Yamaguchi probably only did Ryu Hayabusa there.
>>11291259Earlier, mid~late 90's. He did a bunch of garage kits, non articulated mechas before all that. Then articulated ones like Gaogaigar. Then Evangelion was the first PVC articulated completed figures I believe.
>>11291104>I've read Yamaguchi is leaving
