This is probably the greatest website ever. Seriously I can't stop laughing.

Yeah that's a great page!

Every image you click makes noises from the games. Even if you just swirl your mouse around, Terry will shout out "OKAY!" and such.

November is so far away

Definitely getting this. Need more King of Fighters and SNK figures!

Some new shots of Terry Bogard. I'm actually more excited about this figure than Figuarts Cell. I really hope they will make Street Fighter figures as well.

KoF Blazblue and Guilty Gear were shown. Bandai is going all out on the fighting games!

Looks like this line really was too good to be true. For those that have not, I highly recommend checking out the final product photos of Terry. In short he is a disaster. He has a hard time standing (from what I hear), not enough points of articulation, and awkward proportions and face sculpts. It's so disappointing since the original promotional shots looked great. As usual D-Arts is just a load of junk :/ Can't get excited for Kim or Sol Badguy anymore.

Do you have a link to the final product photos?

In my experience D-arts have been pretty quality figures. What issues have you had with them?

Really? They are fairly infamous on the Japanese figure boards for their absolutely terrible quality control and just general badness. There are exceptions, but the Digimon ones for example were awful and Megaman Zero had a lot of problems.

Like I said, in my experience. That being the Megaman X line. And unless I'm mistaken (which I very well could be) The same company develops the Monster arts Godzilla line and the figuarts DBZ line, which I have several figures in, and they are all very well done with nice clean paint apps and no QC issues on mine.

Those are different lineups. Figuarts is where Terry should have been as those have good solid bodies, nice articulation, etc... Godzilla is Monster Arts. D-Arts is the issue.

I think he turned out pretty good. The detail on the hair seem to have softened on the final product compared to the proto, but the face sculpt looks to be the same. the paint overall doesn't have as much depth/shading, but it's not bad.

And it looks like it can replicate all of Terry's signature moves, so I don't know where the complaints regarding its pose ability is coming from.

^^^ Yeah, he looks pretty good there.

I suppose. But then the Megaman X figures are D-arts and they are fantastic.

Okay, now I've actually read a couple of the reviews out, and the issues collectively seem to be regarding the lack of a bicep swivel and some issues with the ankle joints.

Yeah. Proportions also look a bit off though they always did. Ive heard complaints about standing issues too.

The response on 4chan was actually referring to the same guy too if I recall.
