Yeah, if they can deliver, I'll be getting both of them. Man, I didn't realize how striking the Amazon's eyes are.
Magi? Yeah, Crunchyroll has it. I've been meaning to watch it. Like the figure a lot.
And never seen the show but I like this
MOOOOOORG, my 2nd WAIFU.......

You're a completest, aren't you?

Not really. With One Piece I like to collect in groupings. Since I know Aladdin wont be alone I will order him next month and wait for Morg and the others.
Whered did you find the One Piece pics?

I didn't, Jayhawk did. Said he found them on facebook. But a couple (or, well, all) of them popped up on MFC...

Cavendish:
Momonosuke:
Bellamy:

Considering I know next to nothing about One Piece, I found what I could for you.

No its not you brah. Im just disappointed she wasnt a part of that wave, since she is a focal point of that arc.
Freezasaurus
Member
Oh, I know. I just wasn't sure if there were others I didn't find pics of or not. My searches on MFC were based entirely on One Piece figures by MegaHouse with 2014 release dates, since I'm not familiar with a lot of the characters.
Yeah that wasnt Alvida. Thats Cavendish. Where my Rebecca?
The unpainted figure confused me. I was hoping for some classic figures like Buggy!

I really want them to finish the Supernovas. I freakin' love Apoo and Urouge. Not mention a Zoan form Drake.

i can't refuse the amazon. they botched that elf face, ugh.
Freezasaurus
Member
She was my fav in the game, so I may have to cave even if she is a smidge over 10k JPY. If they pull a Labrys and try for $150, they can get fucked.
I didn't even notice until you mentioned it. The hair kind of draws attention away from the actual face. But yeah.... something looks weird there. Hope they fix it.

Amazon's is the face it looks like they botched to me. She either looks cross-eyed, half asleep, or both.
Elf's face looks much better from other angles.
At least they captured Amazon's muscle tone in the shading. I was a little worried when I saw the unpainted sculpt.

What?! There's no way. Pull up the Elf artwork. The nose is too long, and the mouth is too low. And it seems like her face should be just a tiny bit wider.
Amazon looks great.

yea, the elfs mouth is way too low. the amazon looks fine to me, especially the eyes.

Neither of them are 100% source accurate b/c the proportions are absolutely nuts in the artwork. Elf's face was brought into proportion when looking at it from most angles. The image you posted does make it look really long and horrible, but in others where you can see her face flat on it looks more rounded and heart-like.
Amazon looks like some combination of being bored, sleepy, and retarded. I half expect "duh, which way did he go George? Which way did he go?" to pop out of her mouth. I'd really like to see both of them from camera angles attempting to match the viewing angle to the artwork as closely as possible.
Mmm, mmm. Dat Risty still looking good after all these years. I'm happy that those who wanted her can pick up the re-release at a decent price. Still one of my top 3 favorite figures of all time. Wouldn't mind a Risty vs Amazon match-up.

If any property MH have worked on deserves quality, it's this one. I really can't see anybody else making Utena figures(and don't even know why MH decided to make this one), so please don't botch the manufacturing.
I expect the painted prototype to look good, since that isn't usually where they falter.
Tempted to get a Mikoto and a 2nd Himeko from CDJ, help me out FigureGAF (preferably with donations
Anyhow, I came to leave this here
and this
edit: and this
etc. check his twitter, summary post will probably be here http://blog.livedoor.jp/ioryhamon/archives/6962815.html
There will probably be other reports as well unless this is old.
i want all of these
yup, looks awesome like that already. quite striking. i bet the paint will make it look less cool.
And never seen the show but I like this
Morgiana is her name. She's looking great. Definitely getting. Gonna get the Elf too.

Plamoya are fine, for first order I think they force registered SAL on me though. You will also periodically gett5% off next order discounts afterwards as well.

Does anyone happen to have a line on a 1/6 Kotobukiya Catwoman? I just found out she existed, and she'd go great with the 1/6 Batman I just ordered. But she's discontinued as fuck. Anyone still have her in stock?
This is what I'm looking for:
She's around ebay (of course) but for double list price.

Yikes.
She looks fine in the earlier picture posted. This one looks like something went horribly wrong. Angle makes all the difference.

Argh worded it wrong, what I meant was for their first order they made me use a trackable delivery option only, but yeah you'll be fine.

I don't know if it's just that picture, but she looks cross-eyed, at least from that angle. I guess both DC figures have some issues.
Is the Elf going to have a bowstring and arrow, or are they just going to stick with the frame?

Tharja this month, yes. But there's a chance (and probably a good one) that she'll get slapped with a delay.

Yeah, I can't have a figure that looks like that from any angle.

Yeah, I can't have a figure that looks like that from any angle.
lol. Also, is it just me, or is one big floppy boob larger than the other?
Yeah, I think you're right.
Are there any particularly unflattering angles of the Elf?
I think it might be an optical illusion. At least I hope it is. God damnit, this is what happens when makers rush to get something out the door
So far every single D*C figure has issues.She looks fine to me, although some complain about her mouth being too low. I'm still undecided on Amazon. Her face in that angle...it is not pretty. ~_~

Amazon's face looks fine from the angle you're likely to be displaying at though.
I don't really like Dragon's Crown's designs, but I think she looks really good here.
