Also, considering how much people cared about the scale of the Dragon Knight Figmas vs. Figuarts, size difference does play a factor, it seems.

It's pretty sad when Matrixbeast is making the only decent point (the price)
No, it doesn't show the difference. At least not well. You took that at a downward angle. It screws up the prepective. Now, the point made was that Figuarts can not fit in with Marvel Legends/ThunderCats/DCUC. I do not own an Armor Might figure, but I do own a Lion-O that Armor Might borrowed parts from so I'll be using that. Here's a picture with ML Spider-Man, SL White Ranger, SHF Gokai Red, and Classics Lion-O. I tried my best to get a level image. It's not perfect, but they are all standing as straight as a I can get them and all touching the wall to give the best comparison in size. Are these lines made on different scales? Yes. Is it a significant difference? Not unless you're really anal about it. The biggest difference is not the scale, but the (for lack of a better word) "beefness" of the characters. Rangers aren't "beefy," while most comic super heroes are. Last edited by Blade Raider; 02-09-2013 at 03:05 AM.. |

Oh, wow. Completely missed people complaining about the heights. I was thinking of the incessant moaning on Rangerboard of the beefiness when I posted that picture.
Still see almost no reason to compare them to figuarts, other than the articulation. They have different target demographics, economies and markets from figuarts depending on if you buy Shinkenred/gold or import any other. The items themselves have different goals. It's like comparing oranges and grapefruits. They look similar, but serve much different purposes.

"why the does any ADULT COLLECTOR (no other "demographic") want these when we know there's a much better toy coming aimed directly at the adult collectors? Price difference aside, what is the appeal of these figures?" Last edited by Blade Raider; 02-09-2013 at 04:32 AM.. |
