>>11775121What is GW? Is it like Wonfes?
>>11775142Golden Week, period of holidays.
>>11775142It's Golden Week. When Japan shuts down because no one wants to work on holiday.
>>11775179>>11775149More like Silver Week!
>>11775142>What is GWGames Workshop
>>11775121>Classic Deadshot getting an AYI genuinely have no idea how this happened but I am overjoyed that it did.
>>11775373Nice :)
>>11775373About Deadshot or about it being the classic costume? Deadshot getting an AY was a no brainer with tendency of DC AY sticking to Batman characters and his strong media presence in recent years with multiple Suicide Squad projects. And the fact AY loves the paramilitary types. I have little doubt if it wasn't for the dark times of no guns policy it would have happened sooner. As for going with the classic look, taking this long to happen might've helped. None of the projects with Deadshot really took off, thus not creating a definitive style for the character that the audience to consolidate the impression of. I think it helps that the old design still got enough detailing on it to not look like a lazy sculpt work. Also maybe a bonus factor the classic design most resembles Deadpool, one of their best selling AY so they hope some fans of those figures would buy this even if they don't know the character at all. It's really the reason we got AY Deathstroke in the first place, he wasn't a big name.
>>11775794The classic look is what shocked me. I figured it would be one of those hideous jagged New 52 looks if we got him since that is usually the well they dip into for DC AYs.
>>11775794If only Kaiyodo loved detailed and cool-looking armored characters. More AY MH never ever...
>>11776392They love detailing but not a lot of different paints.
>>11776511Sigh
Guys I have a random-ass question and it's about the Kaiyodo skeletons. I recall some anons saying these Jizai Okimono skellies were also sold in parts in gashapons.Do you guys know if that's true? So far I can't find pictures online, neither can I find them in online Japanese selling pages.
>>11776798There are several series in the line involving Takeya Takayuki (guy who did those Revo skellies). They're like 11 cm small.https://kaiyodo.co.jp/items/capsule/armored-action-skull-plus/https://kaiyodo.co.jp/items/capsule/armored-action-skull-plus_pirate/https://kaiyodo.co.jp/items/capsule/armored-action-skull/
>>11776798The gashapon you speak of has nothing to do with the Dokuroman series >>11776805 Yamaguchi of AY fame made the later ones btw. Not sure who did the first ver but wasn't Takeya since he doesn't really sculpt anything himself most of the time and it says it was done by Kaiyodo and Takeya's sculptors are not Kaiyodo. They just did a separate unrelated skeleton gashas. You won't find them because the Gashapon ver wasn't anything "official". Kaiyodo employees manually separated unsold Revo skeletons into capsules and placed the machines at their own stores (and maybe some events). The only way to get them was in person at the time.
>>11776798Here's a tweet from thenhttps://x.com/figsoku/status/903783501824188416
>>11776810>You won't find them because the Gashapon ver wasn't anything "official". Kaiyodo employees manually separated unsold Revo skeletons into capsules and placed the machines at their own stores (and maybe some events). The only way to get them was in person at the time.This here.
>>11776805My bad the first ver did have Takeya involved. I guess he sculpted a statue and Ootsu turned it into an action figure. https://kaiyodo.co.jp/items/capsule/armored-action-skull/Yamaguchi did everything for the Plus.
>>11776810>>11776814>You won't find them because the Gashapon ver wasn't anything "official". Kaiyodo employees manually separated unsold Revo skeletons into capsules and placed the machines at their own stores (and maybe some events). The only way to get them was in person at the time.God dammit, I had hoped to find some on Mercari but I see why that's gonna be hard to do.>>11776813Yup, this was the same picture I found, oh well.
>>11775794>And the fact AY loves the paramilitary typeshopefully agent anti venom is being considered. as much as i like the ct version i also wanted an improved and authentic version of him.
>>11775373>overjoyed Who know anyone but people who love Johns slop would want anything Deadshot
>>11777237Time to put the cap back on the whiskey bottle tonight, anon.
>>11775121Is there a po date for the Ninja Gaiden stuff?
>>11777237I have absolutely no idea what Johns has to do with Deadshot. All I know is that Deadshot is one of my favorite characters from one of the best DC books of the 80's.
>>11776334Same, I hope this and the new beyond are successful enough to lead to more classic versions.
Rare see on yt a jap reveiwing Saki revohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULdr1pCGPAgSaki Revo face is different from the game art.
So is Okarun supposed to come out this month or next?
>>11778020I completely forgot about that guy, what is it with Okarun having 3 figures in a spawn of months by 3 different companies?
>>11778033Promising new manga and anime (i don't know the exact timeline, books sales might be already off the charts or something by then) from Shueisha which has the most prominent manga titles of all time getting multiple figures? How odd.
Arrived today my fisrt revo.Her elbow joints are tight as fuck and louder.Also her hands pop off easily.
>>11779542>Also her hands pop off easilyYeah, that's a problem that most revos have. Anyway post some pics of Saki
>>11775184Well I am annoyed, they've gotten the eyes wrong on both of the girls. Hopefully the production ones come out more silver, but the Yoma ones should be golden/yellow iirc. May 15th preorders.
9,900
Nothing special accessory wise.
Both 15th preorders. Looks like the hair was improved a bit, joints don't look as bad.
I worry about the torso crunch, neither are posed bending much, is there even a waist ball?
It's hard to tell if she is even smiling on any of the heads, truly a faint smile indeed.
>>11779598>>11779603Maybe I spoke too soon, might just be the saturation on the photos, they do look fairly silver.
>>11779608And yeah sideways looking face has the smile, nevermind crisis averted.
>>11779598>>11779600I'll probably at least get Clare. They're probably too similar for me to want to get both, even down to the sword (she inherited it, so makes sense). Teresa probably looks a bit better overall, but if you have one Claymore figure surely it's Clare... right? Just a bit worried they won't be as good in-hand as I'd hoped, then I'd have 2 disappointments vs 1. They do look solid though, better than most other recent Revoltech.
>>11779608I do really like her regular angry expression though.
>>11779618>but if you have one Claymore figure surely it's Clare... right?Didn't read source (yet?) so probably getting Teresa for the boobage. I like the design and bonus point the top armor and cape comes off. I wish more AY were like that, they could learn from the b team this time.
>>11779625Clare is the protag, Teresa is her mother/sister/mentor figure. I won't say too much else cause you should give it a read, it isn't too long and it's a fun and good read.
After hot water and oil, her shoulder and elbow joints still stiff as fuck and louder.Worst case i send It back
>>11779635I leave the joints at the tightest position for a few days then they get a lot better. The shoulder ball joints I did pop them out to sand them a bit.
>>11779604There is.
>>11779600... are... the eyelashes on the right eye (her left) misaligned?
>>11779644Ah nice thanks.
>>11779600>>11779605I dont read the manga, is this somekind of demonic transformation or something
>>11779760Yeah basically, they are made a bit like a witcher with being part infused with monster flesh, so they can pull their devil trigger to become more monstrous and powerful, but if they go to far they lose themselves completely and can't go back.
>>11779598oh man it kinda looks like their skirt armor thingie is a floating fiddly piece. There's no way, right? It HAS to be attached on a ball joint on the lower back...right?
>>11779598>>11779603Can they be nekkid like pic?
>>11779772do they reply on their twitter?
>>11779783Pic is not even nekkid
>>11779604Is that her faint smile? Hard to tell.
>>11779809Yeah I think if you look at the image with all the bits the sideways head is thr faint smile, which makes sense as that is when you see it most in the manga.
>>11779643I almost sending her back.Got the same frustation with FigmaI Just got lucky with Jada SF figure.4 figures and no issues about articulation bullshit
>>11779772Looks to me like they are loosely secured on the sides >>11779644
>>11779643Removed her arms.The shoulder part is tight.
>>11780168I gave mine a hot water bath and it loosen ed up pretty well. the elbows are still tight but not to the point that it feels like they'll break.
>>11780187I give UPThe fucking joints still shitty and i dont want break and lose money. For fuck sake even 25 Bucks Jada dont have this bullshit.
>>11780168Barely have any review of her.Bad signal.
https://x.com/kaiyodo_PR/status/2052554072729776489 FUCKING FINALLY, the first Jonouchi figure on the market.
>>11780452Bets on Flame Swordsman, Gearfried, Jinzo, Gilford? Alligator Sword?? Axe Raider???
appropriate level for bonus
lots of guns nice
just the effect, so who cares?
He's higher priced AY due to the contents. And probably for being the 4th time doing the same guy in short period.
>>11780481>>11780489really wish "bonuses" were just fucking background art or someshit. I know it is what it is, but its still shitty. Or hell just make it a wide pre-order bonus instead of retailer.
>>11780481>sculpted by SugimotoIt really doesn't matter who does an AY anymore as long as they follow the Yamaghichi base body. It's better to let Sugimoto do these than anime girls honestly.
>>11780508Then again Yamaguchi most likely wouldn't let this happen.
>>11780492>buy the NG2 Ryu with pre-order bonus to get the Blade of the Archfiend>the Blade of the Archfiend is a normal accessory for NG4 Ryu
>>11780464I would gladly take any of them and a little time wizard too.
>>11780508Ah, so that is why he looks a little weird. If he was going to channel Yamaguchi he could at least skip the weird knees.
>>11780508I don't like Ryo_L's sculpt in classic Ryu Hayabusa
>>11780629Yeah so far Sakamoto is the only one who has done what looks like the best solution for the kneecaps with the Jaw Titan. He also did Boros but that one is more organic armor looking so the double jointed knee works better than the bare skin look these characters have. Could be the scheduling but they really pay no attention to each other's work
>>11780464No, it has to be the celtic guardian
>>11780452And imo the best looking Revo YGO player so far in the line.I'm a bit hesitant with SHF on the train now too though, and I don't want to double-dip on Joey unless it's an alt outfit.
>>11780464Its going to be Thousand dragon with time wizard and baby dragon as accessories.>>11780684Thats Yugi's card but I'd like to get him too.
>>11780740>Its going to be Thousand dragon with time wizard and baby dragon as accessories.That'd be really fun, plus getting multiple monsters would be cool. If they were still doing the trading figures I could easily picture those 2 in there, maybe Beaver Warrior, Magnet Warrior, some Magnet Warriors. Since Bandai included the Mirror Force with Yugi I thought including other cards would be great. Imagine a Flame Swordsman with a Kunai with Chain accessory.
>>11780481Anyone know where these are based on? I don't recall Deadshot's wristguns usually having sights like those so I must be missing something.
>>11780740>Thats Yugi's cardUh I always associate it with Joey
>>11780785You might be confusing celtic guardian with swordsman of landstar, pimp
>>11780785You secondary.
Would you guys go Nin-nin or Hobbygenki for your revo pre-orders? Also, have any of you used Meccha Japan before?
>>11781262I personally do HG, no particular reason. I've ordered from NNG too and have had no issue with them. I've ordered non Revoltech stuff from Meccha, no issues there either.
>>11781262NNG after reading the missing bonus stuff here.But I still went with HG for Estelle because they mailed me a coupon.
>>11781382>missing bonusYeah that's my worry.
>>11781382Got a nin nin game package yesterday and almost thought they were missing too, but all three were in the bubblewrap of the last revoltech box I checked.Do wish they'd stop putting them on the shipping-box side, where stuff gets dented the most...
>>11780853>>11781105Yes, I still want the celtic guardian. He's so cool
>>11781382I don't know why there's not a way to guarantee you get that shit. It feels pretty strange to have to deal with anything not arriving after ordering.
>>11781262For me, a stock item NNG look almost 3 weeks to ship after the payement confirmation.
>>11781669Man this is what I mean, half the people say NNG sucks and half say HG sucks.
>>11781755Both are slow shipping out stuff.Thinking of going back to BiginJap after all these years now that everything's being taxed anyways. Are they still good? Mainly went to the other two because they didn't stock some figs.
>>11781755I've had no issues with either had both send me bonus accessories attached to the original packaging compared to mykombini when they sent my juri and the bonus was almost thrown away with the bubble wrap because it just floating around in a little baggyi need to see proof of when anons lock in their preorders over just word of mouth but everyone has their own experiences
>>11781816With Genki it seemed to have been a cut-off date.I pretty much PO day-one so I wasn't affected myself, but I think it was orders like a few months before release that got cut.But it's not limited to Revoltech.I PO'd figma Shiroko with the bonus from them day-one, but after a month of waiting post-release for a Private Warehouse stocking notice, I mailed them asking what was going on. Only then did they say their supplier couldn't get the bonus and offered the difference from the non-bonus release or cancel+refund. Went with the latter and grabbed her at NNG with the bonus, where it was still in stock.
>>11781262HG has had some stock issues recently, which made me just PO my redos from NNG. Have heard their customer service is garbage but they responded to the one ticket I sent about late shipping the next day and sent it out so eh.
>>11781105He looks obnoxious to me
>>11781846He looks like Link if he was a Digimon.
>>11781846you could say that he's one obnoxious celtic guard
The Revo threads don't seem to have an autist troll like SHF, Figma and Mythic threads, I wonder why that is?
>>11782104Because not a wide enough net is being cast i.e. not selling as much as those? Not sure about Mythic Legions but I assume they cover a wide enough demand. We used to get autist like subjectanon and frequent trolling of click click click but I think when the output dropped and less IPs were covered so did their interest. Comic book autists are a whole other breed but them too wined down when those output dropped too. Kaiyodo is releasing more random stuff now and comic IP AYs seem to be going strong again so we will see.....kek
>>11780464Gearfried pleasehttps://youtu.be/3C8DzlI3E4w
>>11780609Yeah but NG2 Ryu looks way cooler than NG4 Ryu.
Since she's inevitable, will the Momo Revoltech's sweater be soft goods like the figma or part of the sculpt like the figuart?
>>11783047I'm doubting she's inevitable. I'm thinking Aira has a better shot.
>>11783049It would be like if Miriko was released before Ochaco in the MHA line.
>>11783047>inevitableOr, hear me out, they're only doing the transformations, like with AoT's Titans.
>>11783053Well, let's not forget the second in the line is Evil Eye (unfortunately in regular Revoltech, it looks really off...), I just don't think they're going to make more stuff that both GSC and Bandai are doing/have done, especially for a not particularly dynamic character. >>11783070I'm thinking this feels more likely from Kaiyodo.
>>11775121they added the facepre order may 15
>>11783187
>>117831909900 yenRelease on December
>>11783187must buy
>>11783190LOL when you just see the face plates no fucking clue who it is so much is in the hair.
>>11783187Sucks it's the bonus though.
>>11783187Okay, this is epic.
>>11783190This so you can use the disk on other figs?If so, pretty cool.
>>11783437yep, every modern revo duelist figure has that piece. you can give your other figures academy, battle city, or zexal duel disks
Three days!
>>11785810Is she good, do you like her anon? I'm still waiting on Hestia but skipped Ais because she didn't look that good to me and I don't really like the character. I hope they haven't already dropped the line and at least make Bell and/or Ryuu
>>11785815just like the hestia revo, I think she's just okhestia can't lift her legs up but ais can only bend her elbows 90 degrees which sucks especially for a sword user
Almost time for the final waiting to begin.
>>11785913That's disappointing. I know these aren't AY but feel like they should still be a little better. Mirko wasn't AY yet she's really solid.
I think if Joey gets a monster it has to be Jinzo right. Like just from a popularity standpoint it's something that feels a step above the other options besides red eyes which they probably won't do.
>>11785999Seeing how the recent partner monsters have been humanoids I was going to say flame swordsman but since it's going for battle city with the duel disk then the best options would be Jinzo Gearfried or Gilfordpanther warrior could be cool too I guessalligator sword and rocket warrior would be boring unless rocket can transform
>>11786021rocket warrior would have been a good pick for those kaiyodo monster trading figures but that line has ended unfortunately
>>11786021Interestingly there were some new Joey retrain cards revealed on the day of figure reveal too. Among them there was a new Panther Warrior, Jinzo, Legendary Fisherman and Alligator Sword Dragon. I think is Jinzo still the one with the most general audience appeal out of all the possible choices.
>>11785999Jinzo gets a surprising bit of merch aside from the usual suspects, I think he's got a good shot if they do make him one.
>>11780609>>buy the NG2 Ryu with pre-order bonus to get the Blade of the Archfiend>>the Blade of the Archfiend is a normal accessory for NG4 RyuThat plus I missed the pre-order for NG3 Ryu with Jinran-Maru.I kinda wish they'd release a few more accessory packs.
>>11780609>>11786772Looks like they fix the size of the Blade of the Archfiend making it more big on the NG4 one, also it have the sheath
Joey's up
got my orders in for the monster girls and kunai wit chain
claymore grills have two listings on ami?
The Revoltech line officially turns 20 years oldhttps://x.com/kaiyodo_PR/status/2055091039791415398
>>11787242I celebrated it by getting up early and ordering the Claymores, I went with Genki in the end. So excited, going to be a long wait! Btw, is Hobby Genki run by French guys?
>>11787242Reminds me of 20 years ago when this old store in Chinatown was selling me their remaining revoltechs for $10 each.
>>11787242
So think we'll get another carnage reissue soon? I lost my extra eyes and some accessories when I threw out my knockoffs box. Accidentally kept the KOs stuff and of course none of it fits my real carnage.
>>11787308>>11787309>I lost my extra eyesi must have picked them up because i'm seeing doubles right now
>>11787313lol oops guess my phone switched from wifi to mobile or something
>>11787242Are they going to do something special? Maybe update of old releases like Queens Blade, Squid Girl and Yotsuba? Anyone who has twitter, can someone please remind them of those IP's?
>>11787242So Revoltech is that old huh
>>11787242>20 years old
I have just preordered my wife Estelle Bright as my very first revoltech toy.What can i expect?
>>11787613Probably another mediocre yet overpriced Japanese toy with some kind of qc issue or design flaw but you will ignore the issues because she is your wife and you love her.
>>11787425They're already doing a new Eva-01 and Getter Robo, what more do you expect? QB and Squid Girl are beyond dead franchises. Then again they're doing shit like Claymore so I guess anything's possible.
kind of forgot I even ordered the beast titan revo but holy shit this is easily top 5 figure of all time for me, did not expect this design would lend itself so well to being an action figure. Instant permanent desk fig. If you're on the fence I highly recommend!
>>11787711I didn't know she was a Figma
I'm happy, anons, cracked open a beer, looking forward to owning my first Revos. You guys are cool.
>>11787242>Revoltech is older than me
>>11787762I can understand QB and Squid Girl but I want them to finish at least the Ayase sisters. It pains me that they stop at statues. As far as I know Yotsuba as a franchise can still sell/move merch.
>>1178800310000% not.
>>11787943LOL
>>11787425I'd love it if they re did the queen's blade figures and yotsuba in a more modern style of articulation. I have quite a few of each and their joints are old and the articulation leaves something to be desired.
>>11787425>>11788156It seemed like everyone on toy had this figure back in 09-10....... I miss mine....
>>11787425I'd like a new Yotsuba, because the clip stand fucked up the shirt on mine.
>>11787425YES PLEASE i want this stupid brat
>>11788014>tfw I'm at minimum double your age.
>>11788014Surprising to find someone here under the age of 95
Could you guys help me with this? I'd like to buy a translucent AY Carnage, I know he costs a pretty penny, but I dig the colors. However, after seeing this video I'm scared about anything snapping due to the plastic. So for those who have it, is the translucent one brittle or did the guy just was a hamdhands/had bad luck? https://www.youtube.com/shorts/J0Pqfb7vpWM
>>11789235>is the translucent one brittleYes
>>11789257...fuck
>>11789235translucent tends to be a problemthey do look good, i bought a flash and a green lantern because they looked good, but even though one was a new (older) package, there was a plasticizer issue on one and the other I had to carefully warm up when I took it out of the package and barely want to pose now
I spent almost a month going back and forth with Hobby Genki customer service with one reply per week because they couldn’t fulfill my SHF Toga, Almost another month later trying to get them to ship my private warehouse and they tell me they don’t have the bonus for Izutsumi…….. Holy fuck I am enraged. I never want to use that site again but unfortunately I have my Snake preorder with them. What should I do now? Ask for a full refund or accept their 1k yen “apology” and ship her? Izutsumi without the bonus feels almost worthless to me and I was really looking forward to putting her in poses with those parts. God fuck Genki and fuck Kaiyodo for their bonus bullshit.
>>11792161Oh I guess the 1k store credit voucher is useless too since it only works on new orders which I won’t be placing. So basically pay extra for Izutsumi and not even get the bonus…
>>11792161>they don’t have the bonus for IzutsumiDid you pre-order after, what was it, october?Honestly, I'd just camp Mandarake and such at that point.
>>11792161Full refund would be my choice, sthen camp mandarake or buyee like >>11792175 said. There's no point in continuing using them when they can't provide the service you paid for.
>>11792175I ordered in December which I guess was too late. I originally had her preordered on Nin Nin but cancelled and moved to Genki after realizing how expensive Nin Nin shipping is. Genki didn’t update the Izutsumi page with the message saying new orders would not get the bonus until like Feb or March I think>>11792177Mandarake is not worth it anymore for US. I feel like I might regret not getting her later so I may as well keep my order. Not like any other stores have a better price right now.I kind of want to ask if they can offer a better compensation or shipping discount or something but that will probably be another 2-3 week support ticket exchange that ultimately ends in the answer being "no". So I guess I will just tell them to ship asap and take the L on the $5-10 extra for the bonus. I just want this Hobby Genki saga to be over and not have to worry about it anymore…All this also makes me really concerned about their Snake bonus. I got in an early order when it still had the pay later option but who knows what fuckery might happen
>>11792179Okay I told them I’m really disappointed with this experience and asked if I can get a better compensation. I guess we'll see what happens… I’m still seething about this bros like I’m so assmad right now. Literally my two reasons to order from Genki over amiami or hlj, exclusive Toga and Izutsumi bonus, and they fucking failed on both. On top of that wasting 2 months waiting for their customer service to respond once a week to my questions. I would have already gotten all the figures I ordered even from bbts by now. Anyone else get their Izu bonus yoinked? I mean I could 3D print a bowl and spoon but feel like it's gonna be a much more boring figure without the licking face
>>11792260Man that absolutely sucks, hope it ends up working out alright.
>>11792972>it's not their fault u fucking retardNah they can absolutely be blamed for shitty customer service and business practices or just incompetence. Surely at some point they would know they will not have enough inventory for something yet they keep the preorder page up for months? And why not inform me of this issue when they got the item two months ago instead of all this time later? Toga they would never have even told me about if I hadn’t asked.If it was just not getting the bonus, though disappointing, I would have shrugged it off and moved on but there were so many other problems throughout this whole ordeal. Getting the refund for Toga was a nightmare. I made some posts about it in the shf threads. They also didn’t give me their compensatory voucher for her as they said they would. I didn't really care about 1k yen but that was yet another customer service fail in all of this. I didn’t want to be a Karen but I feel like I am justified here. If you had to go through these past two months of abysmal service and stress you would be pissed too.Anyway for all my complaining and 4chan blogposting, they surprisingly agreed to knock off 2k from the shipping cost. Hopefully they actually did and didn’t just say so because there isn’t really a way for me to tell for sure. Now to just wait for delivery. Hopefully no more problems.

>>11795115Well, it still says may (29th) as expected, doesn't it? Doesn't state any further delay.
>>11796014Brilliant deduction!
Looking good, and close to scale. The group will look excellent once the Colossal arrives. Fucking Kaiyodo, when will they announce the Cart and War Hammer Titans?

>>11798199He's a small guy
New Flash!! Does that mean evil Superman soon too? I would love a reissue of Yamaguchi Superman but evil superheroes is all the rage now I guess and they are cashing in on it.
>>11801145I don't even like Flash but I really dig this head, same story with the Jaw Titan.
>>11798195>his jaw can articulateNow I feel like such an idiot for not preordering it dagnabbit
>>11801145Wild choice. Could you imagine Ultraman and Owlman? Can't just be spending (or more like I'm running low on room) on things I'm not really into though.
>>11801193I'd murder for an AY Blight from Batman Beyond
>>11801145>Black FlashUnexpected WTF reveal but also very welcome. Didn't really expect them to do Black Flash, let alone the classic look that I wanted.
>>11801193I would kill for an AY Ultraman
>>11801145>>11798195At this point I'm not sure if it's still delay between sculpting to production or the AY team has no interest of reflecting new knee sculpting method to the rest. I don't think we had the same sculptor doing a bare kneecap AY since this to make a call yet.
>>11801496Close enough.
>>11801503This was long before AY but Kaiyodo did actually plan for a Revoltech Mirror Man, I guess it was for Tokusatsu line. Maybe if htey actually released it we woyld have had more non-Ultra Tsuburaya stuff now. Revoltech ignored manga/anime ULTRAMAN and Shin Ultraman for no good reason.
>>11801145>evil SupermanDo you mean Homelander, Omniman, Brightburn, or one of the dozen or so DC attempts?>>11801195Same
>>11801496Whats wrong with billion ultraman thats been released?
>>11801923The poseability. AY body goes further than a typical figure and that's always a plus since action figures can rarely pose as well as the human body is capable of.
>>11802012I dont really watch ultraman but are they moving that much? what i remember in my head they fight slow
>>11801145bold of yamaguchi making streamer figure
>>11802049I mean it's not the speed they move around that matters, it's the poses the human body can do that limitation of a hard plastic action figure can't do. They are mostly skin tight suit with no armor restrictions so they can move as much as a person can. Even something as simple as a flight pose can be tricky to nail dawn. Like closing the legs cleanly or the back arching. Arms straight forward touching without the head interfering. Beam poses the AY shoulders, butterfly joints and elbow range allows a more natural stance than Figuarts IMO. But maybe the more recent Figuarts improved I haven't opened anything recent. I noticed Bandai trying new things with the shoulders like in DB that I liked, don't know if they used that in Ultraman yet. I did notice the model kit of Geed had really good shoulders. The Mech armor ULTRAMAN is where I think AY is the best option, AY Bleeding Edge proves it. Best articulation without relying on swing out swing down joints that looks detached and ugly. They do move slowly in the show on purpose btw, to make them look like they are giants. Big objects look slower. It's an old trick they used from the start like with water, shooting a small pool and slowing it made it look more like an ocean.
>>11801511>Revoltech ignored manga/anime ULTRAMAN and Shin Ultraman for good reason.FTFY
>>11801193>OwlmanYes.>>11801845Never watch those but I'm aware of them. I'd like pic related as a recolor or a new sculpt.
>>11802317
>>11802317>>11802574....the figma is based on a specific sculptor's statue of the character. It was intentionally made differently from the start.
>>11802626It's a meme you dip.
>>11802317>>11802574The one at the right looks like a kigurumi>>11802656People here can't take a joke without get their panties twisted, same happened in /ctg/ last week
>>11802656>>11802663Sorry I don't waste all my time on the internet being up to date to memes about a newly released AY. Besides it's really 50/50 if the poster is aware or not
>>11802663And you make it sound like I had zero consideration they might be aware. But there's also all the people here seeing these with no knowledge of the figma thinking why this Kasumi looks that way so nothing wrong with posting a fact just in case.
Guys I realized too late I want the Jaw Titan, can I still order him or do I have to pay scalpers?
>>11802731I think all Titans have good chance of reissues. Eren got two reissues already, other 2 of the first trio once. The vacuum of Titan figures of this well known property is showing and I bet the whole line is doing well enough for multiple production runs.
>>11802731Ultimately you can just get him from the source with a middlemanhttps://www.kyd-store.jp/c/genre/amazing-yamaguchi_g_r/nr102
>>11802734Do you know how long do reissues take? Months or years?>>11802736Mmm imma check that, I don't know a middleman but I'll do my research.
>>11802731He's still available on BBTS if you really want to pay extra bucks.
>>11802783>Months or years?Both. For AoT AYs so far they were months for next PO.
>>11802934Nice
>>11800859(for me)
>>11802317The figma looks better. Unironically.
