S.H.Figuarts Marvel MCU General Thread

Just wanted to try this.

My CW Cap just arrived. In hand, as expected, this figure is fantastic. Just be careful while posing because I feel like you can scratch some of the paint off if you're too rough.

I think the white part of the abs area need to be weathered like in the movie so it doesn't look like a Mattel toy.

Re: S.H.Figuarts Civil War General Thread

Thought this warrants its own thread than combining it with the Iron Man one.

I still think its absolutely ridiculous that Black Panther is a Japan tamashii exclusive.

Who the hell is a black panther fan in Japan, to warrant that horrible idea!?

Usually unpopular characters and those which are costly to produce (Ie. Hulkbuster) gets the Tamashii web treatment.

Finally got in my Figuarts Ultron prime. It isn't a bad figure and it looks really great next to my other AoU Figuarts. However, this is a first for me with an SH figure: I am not that happy with the lack of articulation, ESPECIALLY in the shoulder area. Also was surprised there were no blast type effects packaged with him. Over all, I'll keep him, he serves his purpose and I'm happy enough. I do wish I had picked up the Revoltech version instead, though. If I had to grade him, I'd say a C+ at worst, a B- at best.

Anyway, I took some pics to post to show you guys. Please forgive the less than stellar pictures, I'm just learning how to use a real camera. I also took some pics with both the Figuarts Ultron and the BAF Ultron so you could compare. I hope you enjoy the pics!

Thanks! I will do that.

Now is there a general consensus on which figuarts Iron Man is the best? It stinks being late but sometimes you can benifit from others experiences.

I don't know about a consensus but the Mark VI is pretty popular and my favorite. There's also the black and gold version. I also like the Mark 45 although it seems a little bit too small. For some reason it reflects light really well and is super photogenic.

Another popular one is the old bulky version of War Machine. It's loaded with accessories. I like mine but have actually considered selling it. It's a great figure but cost way more than the others. I don't know why but I'm just not that attached to it.

Ugh...that Ultron looks really bad. Anyway, I don't know if we will get anymore Civil Wars Figuarts this year. No new figures were shown at the recent Tamashii Nations exhibition and no one has been listed in the release schedule up to November. It looks like they are going to focus on completing the Hall of Armour this year, starting with Tony Stark and Mark 3. Its a shame. I really wanted War Machine Mark 3, Falcon and Spider-Man.

I love the 42 and 43 myself, they look excellent and have great articulation, I actually play with them quite a bit!

Nipponyasan is around 7000yen

The price becomes ridiculous after converting to AUD. And I think they want me to pay for shipping up front as well.

I think those pics just sealed the deal. I am going to have to track one down. Where'd you get the couch?

I think it came with the initial run of the 42. SH is rereleasing the 42 (I preordered it) but unfortunately, sans sofa.

Ditto....

Yeah the couch was a bonus item with the 42, I bought both of mine on ebay roughly when they were being released and sought out one with the couch. I also bought the stands for flying separate, they are called Bandai "Stage Act" or something like that, they came in a 3 pack. Also those armors do have little gauntlet covers on the hands that I left off in the pics, they come off easily (they actually stick better on the 43, the redesigned them a little), since I mess with them so much it was easier to just leave them in the box lest they get misplaced. I only wish they had just attached them permanently to all the sets of hands instead of just having one pair that is interchangeable to save 25 cents worth of plastic. Only real gripe with them, they are some of my favorite figures!

I'm sure the later armors have all the same articulation and quality, I just am not a big fan of the designs of 45 and 46 in general, and I flat out love the 42/43 so that's just my preference!

Does anyone know any custom artist who offer custom cloth cape for S.H.Figuarts Thor?

 

[juntao05]

Maybe you could buy a bootleg Figma Thor and use the cape it comes with.
