Queen Studios / InArt to do sixth scale figures

[BrooklynWolf X]

Ugh yeah I forget all that sometimes. I just don't get how Asmus can get so far with DMC, and even Iconiq seems to be ramping up SF, yet we barely get any new 1/6 RE figures, all those characters are so figure-worthy, so sad.

Riiight?? I don’t get it either! I’m grateful Asmus got as far with DMC as they did, but the situation with RE2 was bizarre. It was like…they revealed it one year, then THREE years later or something like that, they finally came out.

I’m sure the pandemic had something to do with the long production time…but the blank expression held those figures back from greatness.

Excluding any anime figures, the only certainty of getting me to pull the InArt trigger would be Supernatural (would someone finally get Jensen Ackles right?) or a Barnabas Collins. That’s pretty much it. So I think I’m safe.

If InArt could make more realistic versions of anime characters I'd buy lol, something closer to a video game character. Anime figures can be very cool and I understand why people want them, personally I don't think it translates well to 1/6, but I'm interested to see if InArt can make me think otherwise with their Chainsaw Man figures.

Definitely lots of anime figures that translate well into 1/6

Me personally I have never understood why people want anime characters to look realistic, I want them to actually look like they are out of the anime/manga

Yeah just to me from the ones I've seen I think 1/6 is too big for the lack of detail, like with the eyes and other details. I buy Mondo X-Men so I'm not against cartoon figures lol, it's just my personal taste. As for the realistic thing, I was kind of joking, I think InArt wouldn't be using their full potential on mostly undetailed characters, and Threezero is already doing it, plus I was concerned it would slow down their output of other licenses. I do like some smaller scale anime figures. Also, what Blitzway is doing is with Dr.BB and others is fantastic.

Also, characters like GITS Motoko have appeared with many looks and varying detail, so they could make her in a more "realistic" or detailed style like in digital art or the CG intro of SAC, as opposed to her lack of detail in still frames from SAC (which was done only to make the animation easier). I'd buy that instantly lol. Anyway, I didn't want to argue, I'll drop it, there's just not much new stuff to talk about lol

I wonder what 1/6 figure JND was teasing might be shown this year, maybe we need a JND thread like this so we can all speculate lol. I'm very curious to see what they make since they also have DC licenses, not sure if both InArt and JND can make the same character for the same markets.

 

[Raleig.h]

their other products are so hit or miss to me I'm not very interested in them entering the scene, but we shall see.

 

[choombaz]

All this talk about going back 20 years is fantastic and just makes me want them to make a Harold Lloyd figure more and more.

 

[The Green Goblin]

It'll be interesting to see what JND is cooking up because if I recall they made their announcement that they were entering the 1/6 figure world before InArt, and they've still got nothing to show for it.

 

[Johnny Utah]

JND talk and charge big, but their final figures miss the mark more often than not.

A sixth scale Indy from Last Crusade is possible since they have the license for that film.

 

[BrooklynWolf X]

I swear if JND’s 1st figure is TDK Joker…

These are the only ICONS I can think of that fit the bill of Legendary:

Bruce Lee
Indiana Jones (honestly, I don’t know about that anymore. His last movie did abysmally at the BO)
Reeve Superman

…I can’t think of anything else. Help me out here fellas.

I think no matter who they reveal to be their first figure, it will both excite and disappoint.



But good lord no more TDK Joker.

 

[Godfather1408]

I can put money on it being joker I agree though do something different.

 

[DioramaMaker]

Doesn't JND have a pretty successful Suicide Squad Harley statue? We haven't had one of those on the market for a long time, and the HT is very sought after. That'd be an interesting starting point.

If their Harley looks AMAZING with no margin for error, I suppose??

But JND said it’s a legendary, iconic character…or something like that.

I’d love for a Harley figure. But will it be a strong enough “flagship” piece to turn heads?

 

[ThorRagnarok]

wonder if they'll announce Daenerys next

I don’t care for GOT ever since they botched the series finale…

But if IA’s dany looks amazing, I’ll get it. At this point I’m in it for the craftsmanship

i just need someone to go with my nutpizs jon snow!

 

[MyenShi]

InArt Arkham Batman + JazzInc Arkham Batmobile would be a killer combo.

I've felt the call many times but that might actually get me out of DC retirement.

Is Black Adam still in the plans for inart?
