miriya Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I have wanted a Global figure for a long time and wondered why nobody had made one. I just saw this picture at HLJ and thought it looked close enough. http://hlj.com/product/aos09162 Quote

F-ZeroOne Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 It looks close because Gainax based the Captain Nemo from Nadia on Captain Global! Quote
anime52k8 Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 doubt it will ever happen. Nobody buy's character figures that aren't of pretty girls and have removable clothing. Quote
Funkenstein Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 Which explains why we get an Alto figure instead. Quote
bluemax151 Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 doubt it will ever happen. Nobody buy's character figures that aren't of pretty girls and have removable clothing.This truth depresses me so badly sometimes. Why is there no appreciation for the "GAR"? Quote
VFTF1 Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 doubt it will ever happen. Nobody buy's character figures that aren't of pretty girls and have removable clothing. Gi Joe? Action Man? Ghostbusters? He-Man? Revoltech Streetfighter figures? (or whatever those guys were called) Plenty of male figures around. Alto is a great figure. Heck they finally even got around to making a RAH Shinji Ikari! But point taken - in general... yes... Pete Quote
EXO Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 Well the Macross figs were a huge fail for Popbox, but the CMs sets did pretty well... Not well enough to keep going though. But I think it was the choice of release. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 Revoltech????? Figma??? why not dammit. Quote
blacklotus Posted October 21, 2009 Posted October 21, 2009 Actually, it's not a situation where no male figures are made (e.g. see Bandai's Saint Seiya line of countless male figures and 1 lone female figure), but more the fact that besides the main characters (Minmay and Hikaru), very few figures of the side characters are ever made. e.g. I don't see Misa or Roy being re-released like Minmay and Hikaru in the CM line, and they're the more important supporting characters. I doubt I will ever see the bridge bunnies or Roy's girlfriend (whose name escapes me at the moment) in PVC in my lifetime. sigh... Quote
baronv Posted October 21, 2009 Posted October 21, 2009 That would make a nice Global figure with some slight paint tweaks. So is the Macross CMS character figure line officially dead with no more form the series or OVAs? Was definitely hoping for a Global figure or Sylvie from MacII. Quote
mospeadamacrosstech Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Man, a Gloval figure would rock. Is there a Claudia figure? I think I saw a picture of a Banpresto one on the back of my Miria. But I've never seen one in person. Too bad. Quote
