Tking22 Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 I spy a TPP Snake too! It looks like Solid Snake is coming first, then yes, we will eventually get a Phantom Pain Big Boss/Punished Snake, which is awesome. Quote
anime52k8 Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 Seems there will be Figma Leonidas (300), Snake (MGS2), Motoko Kusanagi (Arise) and Sakura (Card Captor Sakura). I need to see clearer pictures of the leonidas figure painted. If the face is a good likeness of Gerard Butler then I'll probably get it. More importantly though, Star Wars Nendoroids. Quote
akt_m Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 I spy a TPP Snake too! I guess it is a statue, not a figma. Quote
xrentonx Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 I can't read much Japanese, does it actually say statue? Quote
akt_m Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 I can't read much Japanese, does it actually say statue? I can't read either but usually if it is a figma it will be written very clearly. Quote
technoblue Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 No mention of Ryuko? This looks amazing and has an August release! Ryuko looks great. A Satsuki figma also appears to be on the way, per Tag Hobby. Quote
Nekko Basara Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Wooo! Honestly, though, I'd prefer figmas in the "normal" outfits. I have nothing against nendoroids, but I don't feel they capture the energy of those particular two characters. And - I'll admit it - the powered up outfits on the figmas are just a bit too sexy for my shelf. Quote
Tober Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Up for preorder tomorrow.......IS GUYVER!!!And the extra display from the GSC website Quote
mechaninac Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 I wonder how this Guyver will compare to Max Factory's original Guyver Action Figure release in terms of size, articulation, etc... those are crazy expensive now. Quote
anime52k8 Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) given how ludicrously popular the movie was in Japan, I wonder if MaxFactory/GSC will get around to making Figmas and nendoroids from Frozen? That would just be magical. :edit: holly crap, apparently I'm psychic, because I didn't even know about this when I decided to type the first part of this post out: Edited July 29, 2014 by anime52k8 Quote
treatment Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Welp!Got my Saber Alter.She's pretty. Quite a bit short. And her right-arm keeps falling off at the elbow-connection... Quote
JB0 Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Gah! That Muv-Luv figure again! I can't afford to add ANOTHER expensive and space-consuming pursuit right now, but damn if I don't love the aesthetics on that franchise. Quote
GU-11 Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) Seems there will be Figma Leonidas (300), Snake (MGS2), Motoko Kusanagi (Arise) and Sakura (Card Captor Sakura). The new design's grown on me after watching 3 of the 4 Arise episodes. I just hope MF has plans to make that red bike she rides. ...which reminds me, I'm still waiting for MF to hurry the f**k up and release that damn BRS trike from the video game.

UN Spacy Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Figma Hulk and the Godhand from Berserk. NICE! Quote
mechaninac Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Ah! Make it stop! My wallet can't take it... Between Bandai, Arcadia/Yamato, and Max Factory -- to name a few -- I'll end up in the poor house... Quote

Between Bandai, Arcadia/Yamato, and Max Factory -- to name a few -- I'll end up in the poor house... You collect too much stuff, I choose to buy only figma. The sad part is the lack of any Macross figma. I had to hold myself over the Sheryl nendo. Edited August 1, 2014 by akt_m Quote

I had to hold myself with the Sheryl nendo. I'm just glad I don't have any interest in Hot Toys... It would be game over for sure Macross figmas... Quote
akt_m Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 (edited) I'm just glad I don't have any interest in Hot Toys... It would be game over for sure Macross figmas... Oh yeah, if MaxFactory did a macross figma line, I would buy them ALL, pre-order day 1 on all of them. Hot Toys are way way way over my budget. As I find even the most recent figma released already expensive. A Hot Toy price tag plus 60% import taxes (hue land here), truly impossible for me. Edited August 1, 2014 by akt_m Quote
Tking22 Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 I'm totally in for Guyver, I never got the original Figma releases because they became stupid expensive, but I'm definitely jumping on this one, and Guyver 3 whenever he gets re-released. Quote
mechaninac Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 The originals weren't Figmas, even though they were produced by Max Factory. The original Guyver 1 action figure, for example, is stated to be about 170mm tall; the new Figma version is quoted as 150-155mm... so, 1/10-ish to Figma's 1/12-ish. Quote

Hm I didn't know that, all I remember was seeing Max Factory on the box, I guess it was before they started the figma line then? Either way, I'm excited and I'm getting one, Guyver unit 1 is badass. Quote
UN Spacy Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 ANY idea if Max Factory will be making Guardians of the Galaxy figs? I definitely want a Rocket Racoon but don't wanna pay Hot Toys prices. Quote
mechaninac Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 First time I've been seriously tempted to get a Super Sonico figure Quote
akt_m Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 Yeah, they released before one bundled with DVD and now is very expensive. I would like to get one swimsuit Sonico if the price was lower. Quote
anime52k8 Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 too small and too many obvious joints. maybe I'll track down the tiger parka figma at some point. Quote
Scyla Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 too small and too many obvious joints. maybe I'll track down the tiger parka figma at some point. And I thought you would be all over this toy. Quote
anime52k8 Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 And I thought you would be all over this toy. There's so many Sonico figures out there, if I'm not picky about which one's I get, I'll end up buried alive by them. and I've got both Sonico Nendoroids on order right now. Quote
Nekko Basara Posted August 7, 2014 Posted August 7, 2014 I owe Sonico an apology. For a long time I thought she was a ripoff created by applying a bicycle pump to Luka Megurine, but I gather that she's actually the older character. My mistake! Still not my type, though... Quote
treatment Posted August 19, 2014 Posted August 19, 2014 (edited) old figmas with old 1/48 ScopeDogs... Edited August 19, 2014 by treatment Quote
UN Spacy Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 Fingers crossed their Motoko's GITS: Arise figure is from her Diving Suit from OAV #4. I'd prefer that than her red motorcycyle leathers from the first three episodes. Quote
xrentonx Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 Just do all the Motoko variants and I'll buy em all Quote
UN Spacy Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 Just do all the Motoko variants and I'll buy em all Missed this earlier...it WILL be the diving suit variant. Woo-hoo. Quote
anime52k8 Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 Guess who's coming to rape all your other figma's: http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-007720&page=top Quote
