MKT Posted July 16, 2023 Posted July 16, 2023 Always wanted a Figma Samus, but the aftermarket prices is just crazy.. This new Samus is available at Hobby-Genki: https://hobby-genki.com/en/figma/20238-figma-samus-aran-dread-ver-metroid-dread-2nd-batch-november-2023-4580590171206.html Will skip though, as the colors are just too far removed from the one I remember of Super Metroid from the SNES days.

Angesdad Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 Not exactly a Figma but one of the most anticipated pieces for me personally as I am a big fan of Guyver.😍 Quote

I'm late to the Figma Samus line, so the secondary prices are pretty astronomical. Eventually settled for a small Amiibo Samus as a representation even though I don't have a Switch. Quote

I'm not sure where MY is located but you can still find the Dread version for relatively reasonable prices a few places. I am going to say I think it's light on accessories. Having a magnetic plate with built-in hand foot tonmake it look like Samus is sticking tonthe wall is cool but there are no basic weapon effects parts. Quote

I've got the Prime 3 Samus. And while I've derived a lot of amusement from describing the morph ball as a "free second figure", it didn't come with any effect parts either. (I'd like them to do a un-varia'ed Samus. I've always been fond of the base power suit's sleeker design. ) Quote
Scyla Posted February 11 Posted February 11 (edited) I will never complain that a video game series that is all about different beams and missiles and suits (all visible on screen) doesn’t get any effect packs or repaints from GSC. I would lose my mind over a Plasma Beam or Super Missile accessory. [edit:] I'm in for the TotK Link and Zelda. Even if I greatly disliked the game but BotW figures seem to be an impossibility (dare I say BotW Champions?). Edited February 11 by Scyla Quote

Even if I greatly disliked the game but BotW figures seem to be an impossibility (dare I say BotW Champions?). Funny thing about that, on two occasions GSC have made Deluxe versions of Link with every sub weapon imaginable included as well. Why can't they have a simple blast effect for Samus though. These are not $20 figures. We're in agreement about TotK, didn't even bother finishing it. But it's close enough to the BotW look, and the arm does look cool, that I'll accept it. I do like Gannondorfs design and will get him as well. Quote
Test_Pilot_2 Posted February 11 Posted February 11 Snagged the dread Samus and found particle effects that pair well with it elsewhere. I think some of the effects will work well with my Shmup figures, too... we'll see... The wall attachment was what drew me to pull the trigger. Price wasn't great, but not terrible, either. Quote

Big s Posted February 23 Posted February 23 absolutely beautiful. But 90 bucks for a figma before shipping. Most of the U.S. prices are between $120 and $130 before shipping and taxes. I think I need another big holiday sale to justify the purchase, but I can’t stop looking at all the detail, it’s amazing Quote

I only played the demo of the game, I likely have the full game buried somewhere in my long list of backlog library haha.. but I do like the innovative gameplay mechanics and probably would get these figures too if I played more of the game.

Negotiator Posted June 22 Posted June 22 It was bring arts line that released the nier figures. They are kind of smaller compared to a Figma. Figma seems to have more anime proportions for 2B (bigger head/hair). I have version 1 & 2 of 2B, this one is tempting tho. Quote

They also stupidly stylized their Berserk Armour with long dangling arms... 48 minutes ago, MKT said: Ok makes sense now.
