[TALK] S.H. Figuarts Thread: The Next

I'm kinda thinking that they will eventually sell another version of Luffy sometime in the future. So I passed on this one.

I'm anticipating it to be a gear second release with the pistol arms that the regular release should have had.

Plastic feet don't cause poor balance. Poor design, where it doesn't accommodate for plastic feet and ankles, is the issue. Ultra-Act has never used diecast, but the ankle design on their figures, especially Baltan, is superb. They're even more articulate than the ankles of any SHF I've seen.

- I only have Belial, but I find that because he's top-heavy, I usually need to have the Giga-Battlenizer propper up in a way to keep him stable. Can't say for the other Ultra-Act figures, but the Ultra design is notably different from Heisei Kamen Rider design.

I still say metal (weighted) feet are better. if you want to put your figures in particular poses without the help of a stand. I collect 1:18 and 1/6 figures as well, and the fact that Figuarts has heavier feet means they can do some poses that none of my other figures can do without some form of support---example being Kabuto's whirling spin kick pose.

That said, the metal feet are a "nice to have", not a prerequisite for my Figuarts. Faiz Blaster having plastic feet won't stop me from buying him at all. Ditto Shadowmoon.

And please, God. Don't make me suffer by making Blaster an Exclusive.

Accel is gonna spoon with Smilodon?

 

[Jedah Crow]

Unless Terror Dopant can hold the spoon, seems to be a rather pointless accessory.

 

[dchoc]

Maybe you forgot that W also held the spoon... It wasn't Terror who held it, it was Ryubei...

 

[Jedah Crow]

I believe Double used his metal rod in place of the spoon.

Terror/Ryubei same guy but either way, my point is that including props from scenes in the show that can't actually be used to duplicate those scenes, feel like a waste of plastic and money.
