I just preordered my 2nd action figure (after Layton)
I thought some of might like it
http://goodsmile-global.ecq.sc/top/frefigwdsp066.html

I've already got The Thinker Figma ordered and I'm definitely gonna grab this one too when it comes out. They're so ridiculous, but I love them. Haha
I'm gonna have The Thinker and David duke it out.

 

[EroticSushi]

Wow Phasma's paint actually looks like chrome. Surprised to see them pulling that off for this since I thought they would go for a more toned down silver.

I'm ready.

 

[ohkay]

I'm torn on preordering Force Awakens figures because the movie might be awful, but I think that'll change when that Phasma goes up for preorder

 

[Haloid1177]

Hot Toys is teasering Captain Phasma and it looks like it's the first time we get a Phasma that really has a shiny chrome armor, instead of a silver finish.

@Michelangelo's David
I think the figure is pretty cool but censoring David, in which times are we living?

FINALLY

hopefully she's not the next Darth Maul.

 

[FiveElementNinja]

Super pumped for Phasma. She's the only figure from the new movie I'm collecting and the only other Star Wars character I collect aside from Boba Fett.

 

[KoruptData]

New Detolf

Top shelf - Darth Vader HT and OT Stormtrooper HT
2nd Shelf - Kylo Ren HT and Captain Phasma HT
3rd Shelf - More Star Wars Hot Toys
4th Shelf - More Star Wars Hot Toys

I really want a ROTJ Luke, Darth Maul, The Emperor, and an Imperial Guard.

Sideshow is putting out an insanely overpriced Darth Maul from EP1 so don't expect one from HT anytime soon. We'll def see a ROTJ Vader, Luke, Han and Leia down the road though. They're focused on ANH and TFW but will probably get to ESB and ROTJ after TFW.

Yeah, I've seen the SS Maul. Substitute Maul for Leia then. That would make for some cool setups in my Detolf. Vader and Leia with the interrogator droid. Vader and Luke. Highly doubt I would double dip on Vader with a ROTJ version.

 

[cablenathan]

Few quick shots of the Squad Leader.

That is real purdy...I want one now, but just bought Hot Toys Bones and ThreeZero Ned Stark from my LCS. They also maybe have a Marty McFly waiting for me and if i cant get him then theyre holding an AOU Hawkeye...might get both.

Bah...I dont want to have to start buying Star Wars Hot Toys when I've loads of Sideshow versions...

 

[NEO0MJ]

Some people might be ineterted in these. Bandai are releasing Super Robot Chogokin God Gravion, Goddanar, Kotetsu Jeeg, and Giant Robo.

 

[KoruptData]

Posed my OT Stormtrooper to a more relaxed guard position.

Anything less would be unacceptable.

 

[LiK]

Hope they're able to keep the chrome look but somehow have it be less fragile than chrome on past figures. I don't wanna have to be worried about fingerprints and humidity.

Never open her. That's the safe bet.

Speaking of robot figures, do you or anyone else have any suggestions on robot/gundam-type figures that are high quality and similar in style to this guy?

I've looked around quite a bit and can't find anything that really tickles my fancy. There are some cool robot designs in the Robot Spirits/Damashii line, but those figures are a bit too cheap and small for my taste.
The Bandai Chogokin line looks to be the type of quality I'm looking for, but they don't really have any of the sleek type of aesthetic I'm looking for.

I just ordered the NYCC Truforce Megaman figure. I might just be a little bit in love with it.

Sexeh.

Sexeh.

I ordered mine as well. Looks great.

yo, where and how much?

It was an offer extended to people who Kickstarted the regular figure. Not sure if it will be on sale to the public at some point. I imagine it will eventually, but who knows.

How much are you willing to spend? I always thought Dragonar looked really good.



I'll try to look up more stuff that might fit what you want later.

ugh, yes, i read that it's for backers only atm. i ordered the regular. makes me sad i can't even buy this one.

Why does he look so evil?

 

[Messi]

I need to stop coming in here. My resistance to buying a new hot toy is weakening.

I don't want to hear a word until you order that Luis Royo Wonder Woman.

Too pricey here and online with import tax. She could cost nearly $400

Worth it. Maybe.

But Ivy is next in the series. How will you resist then?

 

[Flintty]

yo, where and how much?

Online exclusive for KS backers. $89. He was also available at NYCC.

Why does he look so evil?

It's X-Kai, X's evil counterpart

Re release in die-cast! !

Re release in die-cast! !

Oh snap, time to list my OG War Machine on Craigslist.

3A has finally revealed their Starscream figure. What a stunning figure of an oddball design. The praise for the recently Bumblebee has been high, and Optimus Prime looks fantastic. Megatron is the only one I'm not feeling, and without a Megatron there's just no use for this Starscream in my collection.

Shamelessly copy pasted from Sentient's post on Sideshow Freaks.

SHF Widow head sculpt is a real bummer.

 

[cablenathan]

Re release in die-cast! !

Yus! This will be fantastic! One of my all time favourite armors. My original broke so will gladly purchase a sturdier option in diecast.

 

[Shadowhaxor]

ugh, yes, i read that it's for backers only atm. i ordered the regular. makes me sad i can't even buy this one.

Picked up one during NYCC, love it.

 

[LiK]

Re release in die-cast! !

aw snap, might try to sell my OG one on eBay then. i'll wait and see how much they're gonna sell him

 

[Kipp]

How much are you willing to spend? I always thought Dragonar looked really good.

I'll try to look up more stuff that might fit what you want later.

I'd be willing to spend probably up to $150? It really all depends on the quality and size of the figure. It doesn't matter much to me whether or not something is cheap or expensive, what matters to me is if it's worth the price. That doesn't really answer your question, but there it is. Haha

And that does look pretty sweet. That is really close to what I'm looking for though in terms of aesthetic, and it looks pretty great quality too.

But yeah, I'd really appreciate it if you posted stuff I might want! I'm kind of desperate to buy a new figure, but I just can't find anything I really want. A very strange dilemma to have. Haha

 

[Messi]

Worth it. Maybe.

But Ivy is next in the series. How will you resist then?

I won't resist Ivy.

 

[fallengorn]

Re release in die-cast! !

Ugh... I'll jump on it. Never got a chance with the original. Minigun > whatever they replaced it with.

Part of the problem is that a lot of these mecha figures don't get reprints and their prices skyrocket as a result. Anyways the Max Gokin Dragonar might be expensive but it's well worth it. I have the Godannar for the same line and it's amazing, worth every penny. Other than that here are some other good choices that fit your bill. Kinda stretching with a few but I hope you find something you like!

CM Brave Gokin Patlabor Ingram

CM brave Gokin Mospeada Ride Armor.

Yamato Garland.

Variable Action High Spec Galvion.

Super Robot Chogokin Alteisen

Super Robot Chogokin Weissritter

Super Robot Chogokin Zeorymer

Spec Dragonar.

Spec Falguen

Spec L-Gaim

Soul of Chogokin Tetsujin 28.

Soul of Chogokin Ideon.

Soul of Chogokin Gunbuster

You might have to look up E-bay for a few of these. Also, take a loot at the Robot Spirits line. There's too many there for me too look them all up, though.

Holy Shit! Dem Kotetsu Jeeg and Giant Robo will be mine!

 

[Unspoken90]

Last two figures I bought: Kung Lao from Mortal Kombat and Nova from Starcraft.

 

[FiveElementNinja]

Woot, I can finally own a Mark I War Machine. Been wanting one for a while.

 

[Delio]

Woo got my Murasame Liger today.

Also Lucina has grown fond of the guy.

( dont mind the knocked over Funkos. >_>

 

[Freezasaurus]

I won't resist Ivy.

I'll be able to rest easier when we see a sculpt. Because the Luis Royo Catwoman was eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek.

Okay, I just looked up a few reviews of Max Gokin Dragonar, and I'm seriously considering picking it up. It seems like a fantastic figure all around. Does Max Factory have any other mechs besides Dragonar and Godannar?

And I'm not really a big fan of any of those ones you posted images of. Sorry! I appreciate it though!
For a better idea of the kind of aesthetic I'm looking for, I really like how the Full Metal Panic mechs look.

And speaking of those Full Metal Panic figures, unfortunately the scale and quality of Robot Spirits doesn't really do it for me. They have some designs I really like (mostly the Full Metal Panic ones), but they're just a little too cheap for what I'm looking for.

IT WAAAAAS SHHHHIIITTTTTT

 

[FiveElementNinja]

Argh, I tried to return a figure to BBTS due to chipped paint and I shipped it off last week and just got my package returned to me because apparently FedEx delivered it to completely the wrong address in another state. I was using the shipping label BBTS provided, so I don't know if FedEx is just plain inept (which they are), or if this shipping label was wrong. Waiting to hear back from them.

probably FedEx's fault. the shipping label to return something was right when I did it.
