i thought vampire hunter d was a girl...i went to a comic store to look around today...they still had a winter white limited edition version of temjin...i think i'll pick him up on friday or so
SSJ4Vegeta
07-20-2004, 09:15 PM
when i saw the figure i thought his face lookied kinda girlish. his left hand is a cool character im glad they included it with the figure. wow a winter white temjin? thats pretty cool u should pick him up cuz whats going to end up happening is once ur ready to go get it it'll be gone.

Hello, I'm new here but have been "lurking" for a while now. I have been reading a lot of this thread and have seen some very cool anime/Japanese related items. I am interested in various types of anime and manga, Samurai related mostly... I'll try to post some images of my collection within the next day.
Keep this thread going - I'd like to see some more images of some rare anime related figures!!
SSJ4Vegeta

Welcome to the Anime thread Manji. we will keep this thread going fo as long as we can.

SSJ4Vegeta
07-20-2004, 09:51 PM

D is a guy ! He's half vampire, but he is definitely male ! lol, remember the guy (forgot his name, he was the leader of the bounty hunter group leila was in) asking leila if she was in love with him ? lol :D

plus, his voice is to macho to be female, LOL :p
SSJ4Vegeta
07-20-2004, 10:00 PM
D is a better half vampire than Blade. my fave scene in the movie is when the bounty hunter leader fires that silver arrow hoping to shoot whatever is coming, and D grabs it.
chubbychicken
07-20-2004, 10:07 PM
haha maybe i'll have good luck this year and come out with lotsa cash hha...thats a pretty sweet speed racer car...cept i'm not that big of a speed racer fan
chubbychicken
07-20-2004, 10:08 PM
haha aiight its now confirmed that d is a male ahha
SSJ4Vegeta
07-20-2004, 10:10 PM
watching speed racer cartoons is cool cuz of the way they talk. i may get the Mach 5 set cuz its $25 at the comic store and it comes with a speed figure so thats cool too and Spridal& Chim-Chim but i could care less for those too.
chubbychicken
07-20-2004, 10:15 PM
...haha i'm totally clueless at wat ur talking bout for once...i'm one of those people who cant watch old anime remember? haha
SSJ4Vegeta
07-20-2004, 10:24 PM
oh yea i forgot. dude some of the older anime is great if u can get over the fact that its old then ur good to go. but ur just spoiled like some of my friends. without older anime we wouldnt be where we are today and thats watching way better animation. a true anime fan wouldnt care about the age of an anime. anime is like wine it gets better with age. u should atleast give one old anime a shot.
chubbychicken
07-20-2004, 10:36 PM
haha i cant watch old anime nemore but i've seen lotsa old anime b4...but i dunno i dont really like them...but akira is still one of my fave anime movies
SSJ4Vegeta
07-20-2004, 11:26 PM
yea akira is pretty cool. i want them to release the old voltron show on dvd since they did speed racer i think its time for the 5 lions.
chubbychicken
07-20-2004, 11:39 PM
haha dunno wat those r either...damn i cant even afford dvds rite now...the only dvd i'm looking for rite now is gungrave...i saw it but it was 50 bucks cdn which is round 39 bucks us so gonna keep shopping around...have u heard of an anime called "fighting spirit"? its a boxing anime...i saw like 5 mins of it at animethon...but no clue wat it was called...it was really good...then i ran into the 1st volume on the new release anime section at blockbuster
The abeyant 1
07-20-2004, 11:43 PM
ok i know this was a ways back, but what were the selectively clothed anime figures in the beginning of this thread called and where can i find them? the ones with exposed breasts and all?

D is a better half vampire than Blade. my fave scene in the movie is when the bounty hunter leader fires that silver arrow hoping to shoot whatever is coming, and D grabs it.
that was alos one of my favorite scenes ! I must also agee, D is a much better vamp hunter than balde ! His sword skills makes blade look like he's playing with a butter knife, lol :p
SSJ4Vegeta
07-20-2004, 11:44 PM
you dont know Voltron? aw man this was a great show and still is. as for "fighting spirit" i have no clue as to what that is at all.
chubbychicken
07-20-2004, 11:48 PM
no i kno wat voltron is haha dude we talked bout voltron in this thread b4...its the other anime u mentioned which i dont kno about...haha ya same here i dont kno much b out fighting spirit but it was pretty good...or the 5 mins of i that i watched got me hooked but i had to leave haha
SSJ4Vegeta

i kinda wish the figure of D can be posed better cuz the way i have it set up its like he showing off his sword to blade, while blade is on his bike wishing he was that cool. lol :D
SSJ4Vegeta
07-20-2004, 11:53 PM
chubby im shocked at u. you know voltron but not speed racer. for shame FOR SHAME!!! the car is my fave car ive seen today. it comes in 2nd to the Batmobile.

chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 02:07 PM

i think its only got 3 points of articulation...the head and shoulder cuts...possibly ankle ones toothanks for the sweet pic cc ! Thats not bad at all, what do you guys think about the likeness of the figure in relationship to the actual character ? looks good to me so far .. :D
chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 07:40 PM
its not bad i was looking for that fig like last year...gave up though...but hes of decent likeness....i have the saito fig and he looks pretty good
SSJ4Vegeta
07-21-2004, 07:57 PM
he has 7 points of articulation neck, both shoulder, both wrists and ankles. its a good figures the likness is pretty decent.
chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 08:07 PM
there u go...7 points haha...i like the lil story image ones better now though
SSJ4Vegeta
07-21-2004, 08:14 PM
cuz those were the only ones u could get. but i own the kenshin figure that u searched for. haha
the blue one looks good, but the winter white looks clean and fresh. like winter fresh
chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 08:32 PM
but i like nething with blue i mean that jinki figure wouldnt b that great if it wasnt blue...well it would but a diff color would take away frum it
SSJ4Vegeta
07-21-2004, 08:44 PM
yea thats true blue is a good color. now if it was red it would look sweet.
chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 09:09 PM
red for the jinki figure?...i dunno i guess it depends on the design off the mech i guess...but blue always looks best on a mech
SSJ4Vegeta
07-21-2004, 09:31 PM
true but when it comes to gundams white is the best.
chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 09:44 PM
well white is good for mech but with blue as the hightlight color and all its looks good
SSJ4Vegeta
07-21-2004, 09:50 PM
yes indeed.
chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 10:24 PM
you have any idea wen the inuyasha figs will b hitting comic stores?...and i jus read that ff7 advent children has been pushed back for an early 2005 direct to dvd release
SSJ4Vegeta
07-21-2004, 10:41 PM
still not sure i called my local shop here to see if they came in today but nothing. they just told me to keep checking every weds. to see if they are in or not. early 05 thats not bad cant wait though. i also heard this isnt the end of FF7. V-Jump magazine from japan has reported that there might be a FF7-2 GAME in the works. but they have said there are a few things planned for FF7 what they are we'll just have to wait and see.
chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 10:45 PM
ya i dont mind the 05 release date...that jus means more time to make the graphics alot better cuz i kinda thought that summer 04 was too soon for them to complete it cuz the spirits within took over 4 years to do...ya i jus saw sum new pics of the movie...had pics of cid and red xiii up
Lainovion

yeah, I also read (i think on www.ign.com (http://www.ign.com)) that there were rumors of another ff7 game, i even read that they were advertising on trains in japan with ff7 characters giving a hint of a new ff7 title, thanks ssj4v, and cc for the info on the kenshin fig, its been on my "wanted" list for a while, and i may narrow down on it soon enough . :D can anyone reccomend good sites for anime figs that they have had good dealings with , I like 1800collectible.com , but I cant find the checkout button ! :eek: i add my items to the cart, but no check out button to be found, and they havent responded to my email either .. :mad:

chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 11:22 PM
ya that sephiroth looks insane...i'm probly jus gonna pick up cloud spehiroth and tifa...maybe vincent too...but i wont b getting doubles haha... not gonna take them out
SSJ4Vegeta
07-21-2004, 11:27 PM
im still in shock from seein it. that figure is sweet and know im just thinking of something. i wonder where will these be sold at cuz the FFX-2 figures i only found at gamestop. i dont remember seeing them anywhere else from what i remeber. when they mention release dates i may have to ask the manager at the comic shop i go to alot to see if they'll be getting any.
chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 11:41 PM
well they will start selling them at comic shops...but the ffx2 figs r all over the place niw i went to one place and asked them if tehy will b getting ne new shipments and they said they wont b getting nemore ffx2 figs so i went on ebay about all 3 for a pretty good prive then after 2 weeks or so after receiving them almost all the comic stores got them...so i dunno at 1st it'll b tuff to get sum ff7ac figs but in a couple months it'll b easy
SSJ4Vegeta
07-21-2004, 11:45 PM
thats cool to hear. still cant wait to see the rest of the line cuz they just gotta make the rest.
chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 11:46 PM
i wanna take my 8 inch gungrave figure out now...i jus picked the box up again and took a look at it...and i wanna take him out now!!!...i guess buying the lil gungrave fig didnt do the trick after all
SSJ4Vegeta
07-21-2004, 11:49 PM
open it!! u cant keep grave in is package he must be set free. enter the dark side of figure collecting and open him.
chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 11:50 PM
well so far they have vincent, tifa, cloud and sephiroth....they gotta make barret, cid, aeris possibly frum a flashback cuz we'll probly c couple flash backs of her, and maybe a zack fig....depending on if theres a flashback of him...but i would jus want a zack fig for the hell of it...cuz he was the original afterall
chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 11:51 PM
haha NO i opened stuff wen i was young...but now i jus cant...haha did u open ur grave fig yet?...haha its tempting hey? cuz its so easy to take out and put back in the box and making it look as if its never been out
SSJ4Vegeta
07-21-2004, 11:54 PM
It would be great to hear if they are making an aeris figure, but whoever is made ill be getting them all. FF7 has been my favorite game since i got a PS and i missed out on getting the figures to the first series. so ill be sure to get the AC figures even the bike.
SSJ4Vegeta
07-21-2004, 11:58 PM
nah i havnt opened my grave im tempted to but i wont. i wanna open all my moc figures but i wont. i guess its just the fact that im mostly an open and display collector instead of keeping them in the package. but ive now become a bit of both but i have been tempted to open my figures every now and then.
chubbychicken
07-21-2004, 11:58 PM
ya i'll jus b getting seph and cloud for sure...and the rest r maybes...haha depending on how much flow i got and how nice they look in person
chubbychicken
07-22-2004, 12:00 AM
ya...i wanna open sumthing rite now haha...i wonder if all our moc stuff will b worth lots later one...i mean our trigun figs were skyrocketing in value...till kaiyodo rereleaed them...but i wonder if ne of our stuff will go up...i kno the grave fig will go up for sure
SSJ4Vegeta
07-22-2004, 12:03 AM
i think the most ill be spending on a figure will be the Voltron. if what they said is true about the pricing then that'll set me back $150 for it. $50 for each set of lions in a 3 book style package. ive got some flow put aside just for the FF7 AC figures. i try to plan ahead as much as i can.
SSJ4Vegeta
07-22-2004, 12:06 AM
well u never can tell maybe in the future some of them will be. if they do then thats cool but if not i wont be bothered by it cuz im collecting for my stuff and not for value. well they do hold a value to me cuz each figure means something to me. but our figures will skyrocket in personal value.
chubbychicken
07-22-2004, 12:09 AM
ya i'm not planning to sell nething in the future but did it ever fell good to have sumthing that people were paying over 100 bucks for...and to top it off i had 2 of them haha...but ya it does feel good to have sumthing of high value...damn i wanna go to sdcc...all these guys posting up pics of their hauls...one dude got the 2 hellboy exclusives plus the new decepticon binaltech...how much is that voltron robot and how big was it?

The metallic looking Evas are from the Soul of Chogokin line; I hope they do the final mass production model as well.
The last Rei figure is from the limited edition Vol. 9 of the Japanese manga. It's about 3.5 inches tall.

The metallic looking Evas are from the Soul of Chogokin line; I hope they do the final mass production model as well.
The last Rei figure is from the limited edition Vol. 9 of the Japanese manga. It's about 3.5 inches tall.
dude ! thats one nice collection you have there ! love the evangelion, and kenshin figs ! very clean set-up of display too :eek: :D

Manji
07-22-2004, 05:50 PM
Thanks guys, yeah I love samurai style anime, including Rurouni Kenshin. The Kenshin doll is a Volks doll, which is kind of cool - except for the flaming orange hair they used on him.
I'm expecting the Rei statue to arrive in the mail soon - it's the companion to the Asuka one. I just love how they are detailed in those sculpts!
Manji
07-22-2004, 05:54 PM
Here's the last of the pictures I took for right now. These are various anime/manga related figures and statues I have in my collection. Anybody ever read Vagabond? - the coolest! I know the Usagi Yojimbo stuff isn't anime, but it was placed beside the Blood statue...

dont u have to have a credit card to sign up and create ur account?not at all ! I dont like usuing credit cards online either, and to creat an account on ebay to bid on items your not required to have a credit card ( as long as you have a proper email address) if you have an email address that is not main-stream (i.e. free email accounts like yahoo), or if you have an email address given to you by your isp( i.e. aol,etc ) then no credit card is required, but to sell items it requires a c card.

07-22-2004, 11:51 PM
yellow is good but when i saw that he was going to be yellow i was a bit upset. cuz i thought they wanted to color them just like the G1 versions. but now that he's back to being blue im cool with it. cant wait to find out who else is being made. besides Swindle who is a yellow repaint of Hound. someone on the board said there is going to be a mini cooper but ill wait till i hear it from hasbro.

SSJ4Vegeta
07-22-2004, 11:56 PM
that would be great if he was the new bug, but i heard that dang VW doesnt want to be linked to anything dealing with war. i would love to see them make the constructicons as alternators, and to be able to combine man that would be sweet.

07-26-2004, 08:48 PM
the anime shop here said they'll be getting series 2 inu-yasha figure and galhound on dec. 29 and the FF trading figures on oct. 27
chubbychicken
07-26-2004, 08:53 PM
wow series 2 is coming out in december? thats pretty good...ya the comic con inuyasha is already up on ebay...i cant remmeber for how much but couple of them r going for decent prices and theyre on boxes not cards...ya i really wanted that masterpiece alpha thing that toynami was cming out with...but it was too much...and i really really really luve the way they designed their boxes u kno wat the books they come in look like so u kno wat i'm tlaking bout...but i still wanted sumthing that can transform half robot half jet...so ya i found the macross plus one...and ya i jacked my bros macross plus haha i tryed watching it couple times...but was neevr able to watch the whole thing...its a pretty good flick
SSJ4Vegeta
07-26-2004, 09:03 PM
yea i really would love to have the comic con inuyasha cuz it looks nice in the box. i may buy one from ebay but i dunno yet cuz i gotta check on my funds. which is why im not too sure yet if im going to buy prime this week. yea i like toynami's book packaging a lot. thats why im glad Voltron is coming out in one like that. glad u found one mech u wanted.
chubbychicken
07-26-2004, 09:08 PM
ya i luv the book packaging toynami does...its so original...do u have a pic of the voltron packaging?...ya no the only other mech i wanna get is a temjin fig frum kaiyodo...but i heard it wasnt very durable that the pegs that keep the arms and wrists and wat not together ar very weak and tend to "rip" wen u try to move it...so i think i'll wait till i can find it for a chep price...

07-26-2004, 10:11 PM

SSJ4Vegeta
07-27-2004, 07:50 PM
nah chubs i dont have a pic of Voltron in package, but i have heard that the virtual on figures are fragile.
chubbychicken
07-27-2004, 07:54 PM

SSJ4Vegeta
07-27-2004, 08:13 PM

SSJ4Vegeta

chubbychicken
07-27-2004, 08:59 PM

SSJ4Vegeta
07-27-2004, 09:04 PM
yea the extended one is nice i just pmed steelspawn to see how much he wants for the extreme Hellboy but i dunno if ill get it or not. i do but not sure yet.
chubbychicken
07-27-2004, 09:12 PM
i saw an extended one on ebay for 25 us with only an hour left or so...and the extreme ones r starting at 45 us...so kinda pricey...jus a want but not sumthing i would buy...cuz it wouldnt have newhere to go in my room haha...but the kroenen i mentioned would b a possibility cuz that scene with him in the beginning i really loved
SSJ4Vegeta
07-27-2004, 09:15 PM

chubbychicken
07-27-2004, 09:21 PM
i dunno the face one the 18 inch i saw was shiny and didnt look all that great in my opinion...but the reviewer seemed to like it..b ut i dunno if this is the same hellboy ur talking bout
http://www.mwctoys.com/REVIEW_062504a.htm
thats the one i'm refering too mite b the one ur tlaking bout maybe not..if not post a link or pic of the one u wanna get
vangeta
07-27-2004, 10:04 PM
I'm not a big hellboy fan but the extreme hellboy looks really good with the cartoonish sculpt. In fact I just won it off of ebay a few days ago for only $36 plus $8 shipping. I was hoping the gun would at least be die-cast or some sort of metal.
chubbychicken
07-28-2004, 05:09 PM
so u payed 44 bucks for an extreme hellboy on ebay? thats sweet theyre going for way more than that now for starting bids!
Mr. Mark
07-28-2004, 07:19 PM
Hey guys,
Long time, no post.
Well I got a few Anime related things since last time I posted here.
My fave is the Kaneda statue from AKIRA. He sitting on a red chair, I think it's a scene from the Manga & not the movie. It looks great!
Then I picked up something from Neon Gennesis Evangelion. Its a trading figure in a blind box. I didn't get the ones I wanted tho. I got some mech with a long hammer weopon. Damn I hate how it looks! I really wanted either the chick in the red or the chick in silver jumpsuits. I 've never watched NGE so I'm not familair with the characters but I thought the two girls figures looked nice. I decided to try my luck, damn I hate that figure. I didn t even put in together & it cost me 10 bucks!!!!!!! :mad:
My bro picked up another Kaneda statue after he saw mine, plus he got all the Kaneda, Tetsueo & bike that McFarlane made off of E bay for like 20 bucks. He also picked up some neat DBZ Unifive blind box figures.
No Inu Yasha figures yet. I can t wait, just to get the bad taste of the NGE figure out. Yuck!
chubbychicken
07-28-2004, 07:28 PM
haha ya i thats y i never buy those blind box toys cuz u never kno wat u get and u always end up with a crappy one...n that akira statues pretty nice ive seen it a while back...i've got a couple hauls coming in frum ebay within the next week...this week my bloody wolfwood is gonna come in...and next week (fingers crossed) my macross plus YF-21 valkyrie is gonna come in
Mr. Mark
07-28-2004, 07:38 PM
Oh duh, I forgot. My bro also got a 4 out of 5 of the AKIRA blind box trading figures series 1. They are awesome.
Your right Chubby, no more blind box for me, especially for 10 bucks. By the way, whats the girl in red & the girl in white names? Also that mech, its name too?
chubbychicken
07-28-2004, 07:42 PM
the girls names are asuka(red) and rei(white)...and wat mech?
Mr. Mark
07-28-2004, 07:57 PM
Thanks Chubby,
The the Mech looks like orange & gray holding a huge sledgehammer weopon. It also has 2 tenticles on its head on some huge coolant casing on its back.
SSJ4Vegeta
07-28-2004, 08:04 PM
Nice haul Mark and the orange mech is from the video game im not too sure what its name is though. Im going to an anime shop tomorrow to see what came in. I forgot to call them when i got home to see if the figures came in but i was too tired. I'll be letting the thread know if i found them or not. I hope i dont find too much good stuff there cuz im a lil short and i dont get paid till friday.
vangeta
07-28-2004, 08:04 PM
Mr. Mark, what was inside that blind box?

holy hell those r nice vangeta...do u have pics of them outta the box?
Mr. Mark
07-28-2004, 08:10 PM
Vangeta,
Those are awesome! My bro got Kid Buu & SS Gotenks in one blind box. The other was SS Vegeto. I had no idea Unifive made characters from the Cell Saga too. At my comic shop, they were selling for 7.99 a piece, sure they look cool but its an expensive gamble if you get copies. I'm waiting for Bandai Gashapon seies 4. Now those not only look great but also are in bags not boxes.
Vegeta, thanks for the info. Happen to know which one is the rarest to find from that set?
SSJ4Vegeta
07-28-2004, 08:14 PM
Im not too sure which one is the rarest. I think theres only 4 to the eva series but Unit 01 with that new armor looks sweet.
Mr. Mark
07-28-2004, 08:20 PM
Unit o1, is that the one the purple armor & blue face. Your right, four in the series, the two girls, my ugly mech & the purple mech.
Vangeta, more pics please of those DBZ figures & anymore of those besides Cell, Andriod 16, Trunks & Vegeta?
SSJ4Vegeta
07-28-2004, 08:26 PM
yup thats Unit 01. Asuka is the best one from the bunch
SSJ4Vegeta

hey CC,
Going of topic here a little but have you picked up the First Appearance BATMAN figure yet? I know your a Batman fan & this is a figure no Batman fan should go without. It's my fave Batman figure right now, even beating out the Silver Age Batman & HUSH Batman.
vangeta
07-28-2004, 08:38 PM
There's currently 5 series of the unifive posing figures. They usually have 1-2 articulations for their signature attacks. These are not bad at all. I bought a whole case just to get a set of the colored versions.

Mark u got things mixed up im a big batman fan chubs isnt too much into batman. I plan to check out that Batman tomorrow during my trip to the anime store. Just last sunday i picked up the batmobile from the first movie. I cant wait to see the batman from the new JLA series by Alex Ross i think or are they based on someone else? Cuz i know series 2 has Batman.
Mr. Mark
07-28-2004, 08:50 PM
Thanks for the kickin pics, Vangeta!!
Man, I want the Cell Saga figures so bad now. Darn you!!!!!!
vangeta
07-28-2004, 08:51 PM
Yep.;)
Some good details in these little figures here. Still need to pick up the majin buu saga too.:)
SSJ4Vegeta
07-28-2004, 08:54 PM
the one of vegeta doing his attack is sweet.
Mr. Mark
07-28-2004, 08:54 PM
Sorry about the mix up, Vegeta.
Yeah, get the FA Batman, he rocks. The cloth cape looks so fantastic graped over his shoulders.
Your right about the Alex Ross based BATMAN figure. He's in series 2. I'm not a big fan of his art tho. I wish the models he used for his paintings weren t all so fat looking. He paints beautifully but just uses the wrong models.
Did you hear about the proposed first appearance Nightwing figure by DCD. Along with the Modern Age BATGIRL & Silver Age Riddler.
DKR in a few more weeks too! Can t wait for those either.
SSJ4Vegeta
07-28-2004, 09:00 PM
oh man thats sweet. Nightwing and Batgirl i would get those for sure. maybe riddler not sure, but yea if i see the FA Batman at any of the shops i go to ill be picking it up.
chubbychicken
07-28-2004, 09:27 PM
haha sorry mark...wrong person...i'm not a batman fan...vegeta is haha...ya those dbz figs r hella nice!...geh so much i wanna get now...but no money i owe my friend 130 rite now! so i cant buy nething nemore
SSJ4Vegeta

I was just reading some news from Toywiz and they said SOTA has pushed back the Street Fighter figures again. Something bout since there are in such high demand they wanna have plenty to go around.
