Fortnite Figures, are they genuinely good?I found out that Fortnite has figures and being someone who played a bit of it, was wondering what brand makes the best figures for Fortnite especially in 6-inch/15cm heightI am aware of >Jazwares>Epic Games (apparently makes their own figures?)>Hasbro>McFarlaneSo, do you collect Fortnite figs? I know it's a kids' games, mostly, but some of the designs are definitely made to the adult taste.
>>11846897I don't own any Mcfarlane Fortnire figures, but Hasbro's are easily the best when compared to Jazwares. Sadly Hasbro selection is fairly miniscules when compared with Jazwares', which aren't bad either, but are somewhat more stiff compared to Hasbro's offerings. My favorites from both lines are on Hasbro's side, Ragsy, Midas Rex, and Tntina, and on Jazzwares side, Raptor and Blackheart.
>>11846897McF had a great lineup but had those terrible ankle jointsJazwares has better ones, but hinged knuckles may make or break when you want them to hold weaponsHasbro was perfect, but had the least appealing lineup
>>11846903>mcfarlane ankle joints have more range than any of the others s m hthese didnt. They were diagonal and ratcheted
im trying to find a definitive comparison video for all the 6 in figs from all the brands that make them
>>11846897McFarlane is out of scale with the other two lines, leaning more towards 7 inch than 6 inch. Thankfully, a lot of the characters they made are larger-than-life or monstrous. So their Ice King, Prisoner and Dire for example look totally at home with the other two lines.Jazwares runs a tiny bit smaller than Hasbro, but generally the figures go together well enough. It's just a little noticeable when a figure like Jazwares' Midas is a tiny bit shorter than Hasbro's Skye for example. Overall, like others have said, Hasbro had the best likenesses and articulation, but Jazwares was around longer and so has the greater character selection.
>>11847218Final Fantasy isn’t in Fortnite
>>11847222Yet.
>>11846897OP, you're like 8 years late to the party. Everyone had them in stores and was making toys back then. Now? Nothing really. There's not really any active Fortnite toy lines. Jazwares recently started re-releasing some of their older figures but they aren't sold in stores and barely go to Amazon..
>>11847218how good are the sentinel skins? theyre my go-to apart from the robot girl
>>11846901>>11846902>Hasbro>buy dlcs>perfectlol
>>11847298They're cool! Can get them pretty cheap boxed on ebay or mercari nowadays, which I would definitely recommend. The Jazwares line is great for packing in lots of fun extras.The robot girl (I'm assuming Lexa) is also available from Hasbro.
>>11847218your mom or your wife/gf?who makes you hide your hobby in the closet like you should be ashamed?OR is it YOU doing this to YOURSELF, son?
>>11847509Appreciate the concern, good anon. I've just got limited space in my apartment and this is where this particular collection fits best. It's a walk-in closet though that I keep the doors open to, so they're always visible and not hidden.
>>11846897Just fucking stick to the 3.75 Jazzware figures. Those are the best Fortnige figures
>>11847612i dont want to add anymore odd scales to my collection
>>11847218I remember when I put toys in my closet. I dont have that closet anymore. just better shelves
I'm mad a lot of designs I would want toys of didn't exist when they were making toys
>>11846897>So, do you collect Fortnite figs?Yes but I've never played the game. I'm mostly a Marvel/DC/GIJoe collector. But when Ollies was dropping them a few years ago it was practically a bumper crop of henchmen, goons and whacko designs that made for great display potential. I was also partially inspired by the Joker Gang from the first Suicide Squad movie and thought several of the more outlandish character designs would make for a good Joker gang, which is arguably the only interesting thing that came out of the film.
>>11847505this robot girl>>11848058she cute>>11848702fortnite does have a lot of designs that fit a robbery/heist display or just a general tech military display
>>11846901Really? I thought and still think jazwares had better designs, better figures, better weapons and I think even the boxes were better. Jazwares must have been doing something right because they kept line going in various forms for years until Hasbro hot it and ended it in like a year or so. Those 3 3/4 scale figures from jazwares were amazing.
>>11848702Damn, slipknot changed a lot.
>>11846897I have at least a few of each of the ones listed (hell I even have the Mighty Beanz) and can confirm pretty much everything from the other replies. The Hasbro ones look so damn good but were pretty pricey and the selection was small. You'll probably get raped on the aftermarket prices. The McFarlanes are McFarlanes and pretty much what you'd expect. They were the first to make figures and I remember being excited to get Cuddle Team Leader when the first wave was announced. Probably an even smaller selection than Hasbro. Jazwares by far was the most prominent with both the 4in and 6in figures having huge variety and they were pretty much everywhere. Nowadays for some reason Jazwares has the most dogshit distribution imaginable. If they're on the shelf at all it'll be for a day and then they're gone forever, otherwise you'll only find them on the website (permanently sold out almost immediately). No idea why they care so little about meeting demand, especially for their FNAF stuff. I collected their Halo figures too and that was a blast while it lasted, now they're in the same boat as Fortnite and FNAF.
>>11846897I have the farlane.jazz and hasbro ones.My favorite ones are the Hasbro and Jazz wares. They feel better to pose.The farlane ones are so stiff and feel like joints will break when you are posing them. The ones i own are Lexa.Skie from hasbro. Ultimate Jonesy from Jazzwares and skull trooper and cuddle leader from Farlane.
>>11848702"I don't care if it's a DC movie. I LOVE CAMEOS"
Jazwares is finally putting out a "new" 6 inch figure (repaint) since re-acquiring the license. It's not much, but it's something. Trying to think of some other repaints that might actually sell.
>>11852735> no gunsuseless
>>11852736I have 100s of guns from all their other releases.
>>11852735ugh, more Jonesies and Peelies again?
>>11852735Well now they're just fucking with us putting RTL on the packaging like that.
If they want to be successful they need to start making the furry skins
>>11853105I'd buy a premium RTL if she came with swappable faces and/or a glow feature.
>>11853105I want Synthesis.
>>11853163
>>11853167Hell yeah.
>>11853105the money I would spend on meowskull
>>11853105Wendell would be in the jar so fast
