McFarlane Toys is reducing their points of articulation for new articulated figure lines like the NHL line. Your thoughts?
>>11723903So, mcfarlane can do proportions right.
>>11723903No company should be attempting to even sell figures to collectors if they don't have pinless joints and face printing. The likenesses are not there on any of their figures.
>>11723903Even with all the joints in the world, McFarlane's stuff felt like crap to move. It's better for him at least to have less joints if it means better sculpt.............but looking at that pic, it seems we're getting the worse of both options.
>>11723942The headsculpt looks especially garish. It seems like they just put out training sculpts for new sculptors as finished products.
>>11723903I don't think most of the people willing to buy these care about super articulation, I really don't think there is that much overlap between the action figure collector community and average sports memorabilia fans
Beyond the horrid headsculpts. No deco on sticks and skates, and no visor really holds these back. Their statues have them. I guess kids wouldn't care about those things.
I see why you're concerned, but relatively speaking these are actually more articulated than most his sports figures.
