This better not take a year to release like Kaneda is!!

I would have agreed with you if Hot Toys werent around

HT is great, but in the huge toy market, it would seem there is a lot more companies capable to make anime/cartoon characters toys and only few companies that can produce HT quality level products. Not to mention there are more miss than hits with the majority of 1/6 figures.

Anyways, 3/20 is the schedule release date for the bike?! Man, I can't wait for some in-hand pix. This is looking to be one of the best 1/6 vehicle. I know its probably unlikely, but I would seriously like to have one of those flying gun ships in Akira in 1/6.

TETSUO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If the price is right as might get TETSUO. I love Akira and it would be really cool with a figure from that movie.. Still anime as figures, i dont know...

So, you don't like a figure/statue or collectible based on any 2D character, be it anime or a U.S. cartoon? There are so many out there, it's kind of an odd dislike.

Yeah... I cant really put my finger on what it is either. I've seen some japanese figures that i like more then these though. But still.. They tend to look too plastic for my taste..

Hey now, I love Kaneda and his Bike, and i have ordered both, but do you guys agree that we need a Tetsuo figure to accompany him? All I'm looking for is 1/6 Tetsuo that includes:

His outfit at the end of the movie
-head sculpt clean
-head sculpt with bandage wrap
-white tank-top
-black pants and brown boots
-and his big red cape
Switchable regular right arm and metal arm
"Akira" Canisters
Concrete throne as his stand

Has a official Tetsuo even been made? Do you think we will get one? What do you guys think?

This has become my must have figure of, (I hope), 2010.

So glad they went ahead and made him.

Same here man, the Akira line is pretty much complete for me with these 2 figs and the bike coming. I is happy!

Hells yes bud!! Will make for an awesome display. Think I will have to skip the bike, but can't wait for these two!

Just hope they don't make us wait a year for this. I posted this way back in June 09 when Kaneda was first shown!! Snake Eater cannot wait over a year for Tetsuo!?!?

Hope they have more AKIRA figures lined up. The Colonel would be awesome, but Tetsuo has to be next.

Yes I will post pics with my movie collection once I get em! But yer, yer gonna skip d bike?........

I was gonna skip it too, but Flexpay is my savior. It is expensive though mate, and I feel ya, I've put off other things to stick with this line.


EDIT: And yes it better not take a damn year for Tetsuo to come out

That's freaking awesome! When is SSC getting their's?

So akira came out at 1988. then it took about 15 years for the bandai px 03 version, then 20 years for the 1/6, are we gonna see a 1/1 in 2015 or so?
