Anime Figure Thread

[Mr. Bungle]

I also really want a Dan Hibiki figure ASAP.

[Deansta]

Lilith would be nice too, but I could care less for Dan

[Mr. Bungle]

Dan is one of my favorite Street Fighter characters.

[Deansta]

Dan is one of my favorite Street Fighter characters.

Do you just like the look or characters story? Or do you actually enjoy playing with him? :eek:

[Mr. Bungle]

Dan is one of the main characters I use. Second to Cammy, probably. Or maybe third behind Chun-Li.

[Deansta]

Cammy is a solid character, as well as Chunner, but Dan is just plain worthless

[Mr. Bungle]

Not if you learn to play as him. ;)

[changosanch]

Finally, got this babe. That Cammy is nice, too.

[Mr. Bungle]

I almost ordered one of those today.

[thejikas]

:)

[Deansta]

Not if you learn to play as him. ;)

I don't care if you are the top Japanese player, Dan is still bottom tier

[changosanch]

It's nicely painted. Get it.

[Deansta]

Nice score Chango... Any chance for some open pics?

[Mr. Bungle]

I don't care if you are the top Japanese player, Dan is still bottom tier
Oh, you're one of the "tier" folks? :)

[Deansta]

Oh, you're one of the "tier" folks? :)

No not really... But if you look at Dan's move set, it is clear that he doesn't stand a chance versus some of the other characters.

[changosanch]

Nice score Chango... Any chance for some open pics?

Um, moc'r here. Sorry, guys. :(

[Mr. Bungle]

No not really... But if you look at Dan's move set, it is clear that he doesn't stand a chance versus some of the other characters.

That's why he's fun.

[Mr. Bungle]

That and unlimited taunting + The Super Taunt

[Deansta]

Um, moc'r here. Sorry, guys. :(

:(

[Deansta]

That's why he's fun.

:cool: You like using the under dog

[Deansta]

That and unlimited taunting + The Super Taunt

If you can ever pull that off in-game against another human, you are a true master ;)

[Mifune]

ha! dan is funny as hell, i luv the move in MvsC 2 where he signs his autograph on a pieces of paper and throws at you in the end.

it WAS ryu/akuma for me, but ive gotten to like guile a lot. his smooth moves give me an edge to bust out combos like crazy.

[Mr. Bungle]

My favorite MvC2 team is Amingo/Servbot/Roll. That team sucks, but I always use them.

Dan got more range in that game too.

Also I used to use Guile and Charlie more than I do now. I've also gotten better with Rose.

[Deansta]

Rose is the best character in Alpha 2 IMO, she ownz all

[Mr. Bungle]

I had a big learning curve with her for some reason.

[Deansta]

I had a big learning curve with her for some reason.

She has a different style that's for sure. :)

[Mr. Bungle]

She also has my favorite victory pose that I can't find a sprite of (in dress with tarot card in boobs). :D

[Deansta]

She also has my favorite victory pose that I can't find a sprite of (in dress with tarot card in boobs). :D

The JOKER one... that win pose rocks!

[Mr. Bungle]

Is it a joker card there? It's been a while since I've seen it.

[Deansta]

Yep :)
I always select that pose for her when I win :)

[Mr. Bungle]

Me too. ;)

Although I only know how to do it in Alpha 2.

[Deansta]

After the Round is over hold start + foward

[Mr. Bungle]

Oh cool.

It was Select + Triangle in SFA2Gold.

[Mr. Bungle]

Wait, which SF you talkin' about?

I was referencing my setup on the PS1.

[Deansta]

Wait, which SF you talkin' about?

Alpha 2 for the PS :D

[Mr. Bungle]

Can you do it in Alpha 3, yo?

[impalerprince]

I don't care if you are the top Japanese player, Dan is still bottom tier

Hey, their has to be some characters to mock, redicule and beat the shjit out of. ;)

[Mr. Bungle]

DAN RULEZ, U H8RZ

OOH!

[Deansta]

OOH!


A use for Remy! ;)

Good call :)

[impalerprince]

Paint a Spawn logo on his shirt.


He can be my fanboy figure.

[Deansta]

:p
Peeks needs to get one and have him get beat up in every comic :)

[impalerprince]

Exactly. Christ, i don't know how he won the vote.

[Deansta]

Not sure how he won, I know I did not vote for him ;)

[Mr. Bungle]

I can't remember who was in his category, but I might've voted for him.

[impalerprince]

I hope Oro wins this time.

[Deansta]

ORO is the man!!!!!! He better win ;)

[impalerprince]

Oro, Honda and Mika win and i'll be happy. I swear if Alpha Chunners wins.......


On a related note, how much ya wanna bet that it'll be SDCC before we see Round 5 pics. Bastards......

[Deansta]

Oro, Honda, and Mika are all musts for me :D
I want Alpha Chunner, but I can wait till everyone else has been done 1st ;)

Probably will be SDCC till we see R5 :(

[Mifune]

killer bee cammy is a must, dunno y they didnt make her already.

oros pretty darn cool, but id like a fig of Q or twelve before him tho

[Deansta]

Killer bee Cammy will almost deff. get made :D

[impalerprince]

I'm perfectly content with the Chunners we have. I'm not a fan of the gymnast Alpha costume.

[Mifune]

ya it'll be great if she gets made, but if worse comes to worse i can make a easy custom outta the upcoming juni/juli body with a simple head swap

[Mifune]

man, SOTA chun li sux, HD is way way better, but mine broke:(

[Deansta]

The Alpha Chunner and Shadowloo Cammy are the only resculpts I really care for. Thin Bison and Alpha Ryu can kiss my azz

[impalerprince]

man, SOTA chun li sux, HD is way way better, but mine broke:(

If you like a butch look.

[impalerprince]

The Alpha Chunner and Shadowloo Cammy are the only resculpts I really care for. Thin Bison and Alpha Ryu can kiss my azz

Thin Bison should have been the opne that got made.

[Deansta]

man, SOTA chun li sux, HD is way way better, but mine broke:(

Very true... HD Chunner is WAY better than the SOTA version IMO :D

As far as it being broken... You should email HD and see about getting a replacemnt. I had a Kyo that had 2 right arms and they sent me a new one ASAP.

[Mifune]

its the face sculpt, SOTA's chun li's face look fugly compare to HDs.:)

[Deansta]

Thin Bison should have been the opne that got made.

I much rather prefer the Alpha style one we currently have :D

[Deansta]

its the face sculpt, SOTA's chun li's face look fugly compare to HDs.:)

The face sculpt, metallic costume, leg articulation... All these are part of the reason I prefer the HD one.

[Mifune]

o damn?! i thought HD was based in asia? its not necessarily broken tho, its just that the peg for the leg joint wasnt pushed in all the way so its very very loose

[Deansta]

o damn?! its not necessarily broken tho, its just that the peg for the leg joint wasnt pushed in all the way so its very very loose

Well... make it break, then contact them ;) :p

[impalerprince]

Nah, he's a fat fu(k.

SOTA's Chun Li face ain't super great, but i'm not digging HD's either.

[Deansta]

I like fat Bison :)

[Mifune]

i think HD is doing a pretty good job in terms of making popular fighting characters in to articulated figures. ive been wanting a mai fig since i dunno when. true, there r quite a bit of mai figs out there but most r either pvc or trading figs. and im pretty sure there r lots of fans out there who dig a articulated kyo and iori

[impalerprince]

You would. ;)

[impalerprince]

I thought HD was done with the SF and KOF figs.

[Deansta]

I hope the line continues, HD is doing great with it...

I'd love to see how Sagat and a few others turn out in their style.

[Deansta]

I thought HD was done with the SF and KOF figs.

They were done, then they weren't... Now I think they are again... :(

[impalerprince]

I want a fu(king SNK art based Mai.

[Deansta]

So do I my friend... Hopefully one will be made in the future

[Mifune]

ya, im really hoping for a guile fig in CvsSNK style, that big hair is a must!!! and many other female characters from that line would be great too

[Mifune]

id like a mai based on this

http://i2.tinypic.com/sxoj2h.jpg

[impalerprince]

Ha, i've seen that before.

[Mifune]

ya, and with removable clothing like koyori's:)

[Deansta]

Now your talking ;)
He is actually doing alot of work on KOF 06 :D

[impalerprince]

I've got the bbi mai, i don't need another strippable one.

[Mifune]

the artist? i only have that pic saved in my comp if ya got a site that i can go to to c more art of this kind it would be great.

[Mifune]

I've got the bbi mai, i don't need another strippable one.


hhehehhehe,

i want a striptable and an articulated mai.:)

[impalerprince]

She'd look like shjit then. A nude articulated figure defeats the purpose.

[impalerprince]

http://mizudorinomai.free.fr/Portraits/maiportrait.jpg

good old SNK Mai.

[Mifune]

She'd look like shjit then. A nude articulated figure defeats the purpose.

it depends on how it is made, there r sum options for a base body, like rubber body and metal wires embedded within the body itself. there r a coupla companies out there that has done this including dragon and hot toys. true none of them look good, but im pretty sure its possible:D

[impalerprince]

Wires don't work. The articulation is iffy at best.

[Deansta]

the artist? i only have that pic saved in my comp if ya got a site that i can go to to c more art of this kind it would be great.

Yep... here is a link to his site :)
http://falcoon.hp.infoseek.co.jp/

[Mifune]

Wires don't work. The articulation is iffy at best.


it works darn well, if ya take a look at hot toys' body, u'll c that its just as good as one with visible joints. and better too, for the realistic look.

[Mifune]

thx a whole bunch dean

[Deansta]

http://mizudorinomai.free.fr/Portraits/maiportrait.jpg

good old SNK Mai.

:D Oh mai... sure is a SEXY beast

[Deansta]

thx a whole bunch dean

No problem :)

[impalerprince]

I've looked at it, and the range of motion is limited and the "skin" ripples in an odd manner, to my eyes at least.

[Mifune]

thats tru, cuz they've yet to solve the "wire snapping" problem. but it should be possible, maybe instead of metal wires they can use other materials.

[impalerprince]

A metal skeleton might work.

I seem to recall a 18" Japanese woman doll that had "skin", though i'm unsure if it had a wire armature underneath.

[Mifune]

ya theres a constant problem with the rubber tearing too, but like i said, with diff material its possible.

rite now the next best thing is cy girls

[impalerprince]

I think Volks has better anatomical details.

[impalerprince]

http://images-jp.amazon.com/images/P/4840232989.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

[Mifune]

hahha!! thats nice, seems removable clothing is the trend now..

[impalerprince]

So are chains, collars and neko ears/tails.

[Mifune]

take all those and combine them together

[impalerprince]

They're all present in that figure.

Personally i could do without the collar and chains.

[Mr. Bungle]

Here's pics of my Rumble Roses figures.

Not so keen on the cutesy ones, but the regular Konami set looks great.

[Deansta]

Cool score on the RR figs :D

[Mifune]

so wuts everyone up to today?

[impalerprince]

Looking for an ibuki.

[Mifune]

ah, ive yet to c the regular assortments to hit the streets yet, im gonna start checking my local mall this weekend for them too.

[impalerprince]

I'm not even gonna bother looking in B and M's. Gotta go on-line.

[Mifune]

u looking for the regular or the variants?

[Mifune]

yo imp ya seen solid theater's banana themed pvc?

brb, class, will talk to u guys in about an hr

cheerio

[impalerprince]

I want a Black Ibuki, and maybe a regular.

I'm not a fan of the "Banana is Snack?" series.

[sweetmisery]

Whats the hottest/kinkiest anime fig ever made?

[impalerprince]

Depends on tastes really.

[UrashimaNick]

Yay!

Southern Island is importing and releasing the DX Bust trading figure line that was out not too long ago in Japan. I knew there was a reason I waited for these babies. :D

http://www.southernisland.com/forum/Topic321-2-1.aspx?Update=1

[impalerprince]

What? It's not legal to buy those unless they're imported by SI?

Whatever.

[UrashimaNick]

yeah, i didnt understand that comment - importing from other coutries is illegal?

but i didnt really care either. the point is they will be available to me much easier and probably at a better price than for what eBay was selling them for :D

[impalerprince]

I know that some things from Japan might be illegal to import.


Cheaper? Most likely, of course they could end up like the Yujin Namco Gals, and be 3 times Japanese retail each.

[UrashimaNick]

thats true too :(

actually, i think the last set of FMA trading figures which were imported by7 whoever ended up ebing 12 bucks a piece or something at retail price. :(

[impalerprince]

That's rediculous.

[BigC]

I haven't stopped by hear in a while. Here's a nice little grab I made today.
http://img442.imageshack.us/img442/4985/dscn04100bh.jpg

[UrashimaNick]

do those have decent articulation?

[impalerprince]

Regular Mai turned out loads better than SDCC Mai.

[impalerprince]

I hear that Akuma can do the Hadouken pose, but has little leg articulation.

[Deansta]

I hear that Akuma can do the Hadouken pose, but has little leg articulation.

Tis true :)

[impalerprince]

Ah, glad i didn't imagine it. :D

[BigC]

Guess the questions been answered. LOL

the regular is much better than the sdcc in my opinion.

[Deansta]

Guess the questions been answered. LOL

the regular is much better than the sdcc in my opinion.

I'd have to fully agree, the SDCC Mai and Chun-Li have got nothing on the regular releases :)

[Lord_Odin]

just wanted to clarify...there are 2 variants for akuma and haomaru for that seires right?

[Deansta]

just wanted to clarify...there are 2 variants for akuma and haomaru for that seires right?

Yes...
3 Akuma total and 3 Haomaru total...

Akuma -Silver
Akuma - Black
Akuma - Grey Player 1

Haomaru - Silver
Haomaru - Green
Haomaru - White Player 1

[impalerprince]

That Deansta, a faunt of SF figure knowledge.

[Deansta]

I assist when possible ;)

[Lord_Odin]

do you know the case breakdown of those figs?

[Simone]

I hear that Akuma can do the Hadouken pose, but has little leg articulation.
Leg articulation or not...
...he's still dead sexy!

:p

[impalerprince]

I assist when possible ;)


When isn't it possible? ;)

[Deansta]

do you know the case breakdown of those figs?

Not exactly sure... I remember the owner of amzingotyz saying that the Silver Akuma and Haomaru were limited to under 500 so I assume they are 1 per case.

[Deansta]

Leg articulation or not...
...he's still dead sexy!

:p

I might try this to improve mine ;)

[Deansta]

When isn't it possible? ;)

:p

On a side note... i am thinking about painting one of the HD Akumas to look like a "Shin" Akuma... What do you think?

[impalerprince]

I say go for it.

Does the SOTA Akuma tower over Ryu? "cause i think that is the HD's strongest advantage.

[Deansta]

I wouldn't say tower... But it is bigger/taller :)

I do like the size of the HD version compared to the SOTA Ryu though ;)
http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a61/deansta/DSC05791.jpg

[impalerprince]

Ryu is so gonna get his arse kicked.

[Deansta]

Akuma is ready to start thuggin him ;)

[impalerprince]

Man, i hated that run-in Akuma in Alpha 2.

[Deansta]

For the pic you posted Mifune...

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a61/deansta/4blind.jpg

[impalerprince]

Looks like a custom.

[Deansta]

I can see it now... :)

[Oiler_Fan]

Regular Mai turned out loads better than SDCC Mai.

Would you have out of the box comparison pics? What is the major difference as I've been looking at getting one of the SDCC versions.

[Deansta]

No comparison pics from me, but the "major" difference would be the color ;) Also the face sculpts and minor tweaks

[Mifune]

Looks like a custom.

its an actual figure, i got the pic from a site, just thought i throw it out in the air.

[impalerprince]

No comparison pics from me, but the "major" difference would be the color ;) Also the face sculpts and minor tweaks

Pretty much. The paint apps compliment the regular one better. I can see why the SDCC one made it to retail.

[impalerprince]

its an actual figure, i got the pic from a site, just thought i throw it out in the air.

Then take it back and leave until you have some useful info on it. ;)

I will say it definately stinks of Masaki Mizuhara's influence.

[Mifune]

is clothing removable on that fig imp?

Pics are too small for me to say for certain, but i don't think so.

Some reason it isn't "cute" enough.

Still, no denying it's a great piece.

[impalerprince]

Damn, too bad the SDCC ones didn't turn out that well, i would have bought them when they were on the peg.

[Mr. Bungle]

I need to get one of those Mais.

[thejikas]

that mai cant stand properly even if her life depended on it

i guess her body couldnt take them extra weights..

[impalerprince]

You have one?

[Deansta]

Some reason it isn't "cute" enough.

Still, no denying it's a great piece.

I think you are right, the face isn't cute enough.

I still am all over it though. She is my favorite DS character so I have to get it ;) :)

[Deansta]

that mai cant stand properly even if her life depended on it

My Mai and haomaru have the same problem

[TsunamiZ]

Thanks Deansta. Also, any size compare photos with the SOTAs?

[Deansta]

Here is the only 1 I have currently uploaded

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a61/deansta/DSC05791.jpg

[impalerprince]

I think that Akuma/Ryu pic sums it up nicely.

[Deansta]

The females are almost the same size as Akuma :)

[impalerprince]

Yup, you won't get away with mixing them, 'cept with Akuma there.

i just saw 1/32 mustang and 109 two days ago and they pretty nice looking.

[impalerprince]

I like the Wespen Geschwader 109. I have the Mecha Musume 1 set, but the #2 set has a big mech gimmick that i like.

The Night Shift nurses 6 set is HOT!

NSN 6, i will be preordering when HLJ puts them up.

[impalerprince]

Uuup, Black.White is on, i'll be back later.

[Mifune]

wow that is a nice set. seems like all manufacturers r putting out gashas that can interact wit each other now.

[impalerprince]

I gotta have that one, i skipped the last one, but no way on this one.

[Mifune]

any more info on it? is it still made by millenium?

[impalerprince]

Ya, still in the DGP series. Due out in late May, according to the auction i swipped the pic from.

Haven't seen a it for sale, but most likely it'll be $20-25 and be sold in a box of 6.

[Mifune]

i c, there seems to be quite a bit of niteshift gashas r there any other company thats making em?

[impalerprince]

Nope, they're all Millennium. Giga Pulse and another company do the larger figs. Plus there is models.

[Mifune]

ah i c. i saw quite a bit of NSN gashas and i was surprised that they're only on series 6. i prolly saw the same ones then.

but i must agree, this set is prolly the best set so far based from the pics ive seen. DGP's gashas seems to get better and better, more and more details on each new sets they produce.

i really really like that ren:)

[impalerprince]

Yeah, that Ren is the gem of the set.

Knowing my luck she won't come in my box.

[Mifune]

y is that?

[impalerprince]

Just me being pessimistic outloud.

It's a 5 figure set in a box of 6, so likely a full set +1, which is cool in a set with no really weak figures.

That's because the American media are dwelling on the T&A without realizing it's supposed to be camp. It's a very Japanese game, us anime fans should be familiar with the game's main theme/concept.

It is also a solid wrestling game from Yukes, the makers of the WWE Smackdown games. Once again I point to Famitsu's ratings, not the US ones with a preconcieved bias.

[impalerprince]

Alot of people take that dismissive thinking when it comes to Japanese things.

[Mr. Bungle]

They sure do.

We're stupid (as a whole).

[impalerprince]

Indeed. For all our " open-mindedness" we're awfully quick to dismiss other cultures.

As evidenced by some of the responses in the "I Hate Anime" thread.

[Mifune]

The new Nagisa is tentaively due for July. I know that date has been pushed once already.

[impalerprince]

Damn, those Myth of Void figures are nice, they'd look great with the Mayu No Ichizoku figures, and you know i'd flesh tone the white on the gold one.

[Mifune]

that blows, so when is the first one going to be released? btw

is minas crotch painted?

[Mifune]

[Deansta]

[Mifune]

[impalerprince]

May i think.

Mina's tweeter is pink, and painted better than Ren's.

Mayu No Ichizoku 3, they'd make good pilots for larger Mecha Musume customs. Also, just a word of warning, but don't be suprised if the nipples on the Void figures, as the first Mayu set had nipples lke that, but were smooth upon release.
