S.H. Figuarts Star Wars

[fett42]

I wonder maybe the hood gets warped out later in the movie, I can't see figuarts making the hood so flared out on purpose

From what I've heard, Lucasfilm/Disney isn't even letting companies see the movie or parts of the movie for making the toys. According to Sphero, they couldn't get information on what BB-8 is like in the movie because it was all so hush hush. Sphero claimed they'd have to wait until after the movie was released before they can add more features to their BB-8 toy. I doubt it is any different with these Star Wars figures.

I guess @Silrian and @Fett, you're right. I forgot that movie rights like to keep big character designs under lock and key.

I applaud Bandai for getting the likeness as close as they did.

I wonder ifDisney Elite got hold of an very early sketch idea of the light saber that later changed in production because they're the only ones that have a non jagged edge saber in 1/12.

Maybe they should've waited

Lol, fail revoltech:

It's Revoltech..nuff said

This company gets a kick out of exposing the Revoltech joints. At least I give them credit for at least attempting to do a plastic over the shoulder cape look in action figure form

Yeah I've seen this guy's reviews..he's really hard to impress. But he gives good footage of the figures

BTW I bet I can get it to kick higher than this guy can

 

[GasparZizou]

Well, he calls it a "must have", they must have done something right

Yeah, most reviewers and collectors don't know or just don't care how to pose.

I like his reviews, I hate those " this figaa is just badass awesome, I love this figaa" lol jk

Recently I found this photo review and this vid.

Thanks! That review was very helpful!

Tacked one on to my order. Have Maul, the Xwing, mark 45 and thor figuarts and gigantic battle damaged super saiyan goku from xplus coming. Love HLJ's private warehouse. All that cost $40 for ems. Not shabby at all.

Then you're probably glad Sean Long doesn't review Figuarts but Shartimus Prime does

 

[MONK]

LOL

 

[guyver1]

LOL

Kidding I'd take Sean and Shartimus over half of these Asian reviewers any day. They're entertaining

Especially when Shartimus starts speaking Spanish when he's reviewing a female's you know what's on a figure.

I fall asleep on Anythony Customs though, I love his camera work but his voice is just so boring and I want to throw his cat off the screen

 

[GasparZizou]

I don't care for Sean Long's reviews and yeah, Anthony's reviews are abysmal.

I do like Shartimus, he's funny.

IDK I have to crack up at Sean's Iron Man impressions ..sounds like he's talking through a metal fan and nothing like RDJ

His Bale DK voices are so lousy I also have to

There are some Asian reviewers I like Meadisch or he calls himself " Meats " and Toys 210 they actually have fun with their explanations.

Type V3 and HD Theater do fantastic camera work on the Figuarts reviews. They are the ones that usually make me consider getting the figures if I miss the first release.

It's sort of interesting to see them implementing Play Arts Kai articulation designs like the floating crotchpiece and the butterfly shoulder joints. So far it mostly has the positives, but I hope they don't also start to get the negatives.

Phasma for sure is a buy, probably a couple of Stormies to flank her too. TFA stuff is going to get me in trouble because it'll have me going back to get the rest

A lot of companies have done that before PAK.

 

[Hydeous]

Awesome

 

[guyver1]

A lot of companies have done that before PAK.

And have done it better

PAK still need to refine their stability in their joints. I can't believe 60-75% of their figures can't balance or stand without a stand present and 80-90% of the female figures have horrible balancing issues

Anybody catch the the Moon is orange or red tonight

The Darkside is Coming
