Kaworu as in Nagisa?
Koto is doing Sorey, while Alter is doing Alisha.
From what I've heard, Koto is supposed to be doing all of Tales of Zestria's guys, while Alter is doing all of Zesteria's girls.
So all the guys will be out and sold out before Alisha is even released.
Who knows, maybe a sequel for Zesteria will be announced before Alter's Zesteria girls are out. heh

I dunno. I think Zestria HAS to be the last outing for the franchise on PS3 Time to move on. I was surprised that Persona 5 is sticking with PS3 considering the 2015 release date.
501, but you're basically right

Same. I haven't been too impressed with them, honestly. I'm looking forward to the Sakura sculpt and I'm hoping for not too much exaggeration, but bishoujo. If anything, could always get the Max Factory one.

I'm definitely in for Juri and probably pink Chun-Li whenever she goes up. Sakura and Poison most likely as well. Cammy's leg still freaks me the fuck out, though. And I'm not a fan of her green costume. But my guess is that she'll be getting her own variant when NYCC rolls around. Hopefully blue or black. If that's the case, I might bite.
In regards to Capcom's upcoming Morrigan, it seems as though they fixed her coloring, as well as added a new base. The actual color reminds me a lot more of Max Factory's version, since it's not so...vibrant. Her face seems to have a bit of blush now, too.
Before:
After:
These pictures were added a few days ago, so they're likely of the final product [since the figure itself will be releasing in September]. Her face still might bother people, but from what I read, quite a few didn't like the look of Max Factory's version either when it was officially announced. They grew to love it, so maybe the same thing will happen here?
I'm more excited than I was originally, this might turn out better than I thought. Regardless, she's cheap enough for me to take the risk on, as I already have her pre-ordered. The later pictures, though, have definitely lessened my worries a bit.

The color never was the issue with this figure. And while I can see how someone could initially hate and then grow to love the Max Factory figure's kissy face, this one's look that borders somewhere between disgust, surprise, and orgasm is just...I don't even know man.
I can respect your opinion man, no worries!
I was just posting the updated look/pictures in-case the color/base were the source of their concerns. If it was the facial expression, which I can see why it might bother some, as you said, their attitude towards the figure would unlikely change.
I do not feel bad.
Maybe I should, but I do not!
Oh, and since I haven't seen it posted yet, we're getting a Sakura Kinomoto Figma from Max Factory.
That's right, a Figma of Sakura from Card Captor Sakura. No, this isn't a dream.
Thank you!
At least there's one other person here who can see the potential/appeal in her. It's a start! More will follow...Maybe?
By the way, her release date has already been confirmed [September 18th]. Having it solidified so early on is very weird to me, I'm not used to knowing months in-advance the actual day of the supposed shipment. Granted, it might be delayed, but I don't think Capcom is doing too much at the moment [figure-wise] to have that happen. We'll see.

These are the ones on MFC I haven't seen posted here, non-garage kits/teaser only.
P4 came out on the PS2 in 2008, two years after the PS3. It's not surprising at all.
I also wouldn't be surprised if both Tales of Zestiria and P5 got PS4 ports a year or so after their release.

P5 Golden Festival ;D as for Zestiria don't think NamBan won't bother till sales pick up for PS4 in Japan, enough that don't have to rely on PS3 sales =/
Is it just me or does Akane actually look better now, less ghosty.
Garage kit Chino from Is the Order a Rabbit? (Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka?)~
I'm in the market for a cute non-GK Chino figure; don't disappoint me Japan!

True, but a year or two should be enough time for that to happen.
holy shit, haha. I hope it's easy to spend money on this.
Man, those are huge. (Also, dat Cattleya)

This is so completely bought.
I knew you'd be getting this. I'm still hoping sideshow makes a 1/6 scale since I don't collect statues. May make an exeption for this one though

Dragon Crowns Elf showed up today and it is fantastic in person, even with the cone:
Can't wait for the Amazon and Sorceress now...

That Kogami looks a lot better than the I'm gonna shoot you in the face >:O one.
I'm a little surprised Musou doesn't have more figures, lol
Would be interested to see what pose it'll be or if they are just lazy and her look boring, lol

Pics from set up I assume. It should near midnight in Japan.

Nice! Makes sense, since she has regularly polled as one of the most popular female characters since her appearance in DW7. Personally, I'm more partial to Lianshi. I'd love to see a Lu Linqi or Xing Cai figure too.
Edit: Elf just arrived and looks great! I'll have to get some of my own pictures taken and posted later today. The cone is still kind of hideous, but not as hideous in person. It's actually really cheap and flimsy feeling. I'm worried about its internal pegs holding up over time. Definitely use the knee stand.

My body is ready. My wallet is not.
Did you ever post what was actually delivered to you?
