Plenty of members crossover, so can anybody tell me why the DBZ figuarts thread is closed?
Nice shots Plastic! I was going through some hot toys and sideshow pics, I at one point bought 1 of those but returned it cause the size and the feeling of them being more dolls than figures (sorry, but that's just the way I experienced it), wasn't really my thing. (They're works of art, so no offence meant. I considered them for a reason.) But after skipping through black series afterward I feel figuarts nails the exact balance between those two for me.
I honestly feel figuarts jedi Luke is, aside from the gold hair, a better face sculpt than any 1/6 I've seen. (And I think I've seen the majority, both ss and ht.) Same for Maul, and compared to SS's tpm obi-wan, the same for Obi-Wan from what I can see. It's astounding to me.
And it's kindof strange to me that these are leaps better than the Avengers figuarts headsculpts. Maybe the Civil War ones will be better, but compared to these, and bruce lee, michael jackson etc, the avengers ones seem closer to Legends than hot toys. Kindof sucks for the fans imo, don't see why they would get a lesser treatment.
