That would improve the entire line tenfold by their presence alone.

Quality control is a good one actually. My Flame Styles for example is garbage, and I'm honestly contemplating replacing him with the WAP version just so I can have a representation of one of my favourite Rider's that doesn't just fall apart if you look at him funny.
I'd also love more villains, my Juuzo is one of my favourite SHFs...and is the only villain I own.

What I say:
I think if anything could be improved, it's accuracy and maybe accesories on certain dudes, since FiguFarts has just about everything else down. The neo Heisei Figuarts are a bit dated (W specifically. When just about every other Figuart is bang-on to the show, it stands out) and could use improved sculpts among technical things like finishes. (especially with Gaim comign out, who has different finishes to match the show materials, verses, again, W who has haphazard finishes) Ultimately that's what niggles me most, having "decent" representations share shelf space with "PERFECT" representations, you know? Figuarts doesn't have, overall, a huge room for improvement, besides that and more main riders like Kiva and Hibiki. OH shit, Figuarts Hibiki riders would be killer, I love those suits. What everyone sees me say: HEY GUYS I REALLY HATE THE W MOULD WE NEED A NEW ONE BEFORE ANYONE ELSE PRONTO!! |

More villains would be great really. Hopefully Bluefin actually gets to make some for the Power Rangers side of Figuarts since Lord Zedd keeps getting hinted at. It might open things up for Goldar, Rito Repulso, etc, etc...
On the hands thing everyone keeps talking on it reminds me of when I collected Figmas. Figmas initially had the ball tips for the hands like Figuarts today, but people were experiencing breakage issues on a number of figures trying to swap hands. Max Factory changed the tips to be more straight and it helped immensely as the hands were easier to swap and still managed to stay on pretty well. Bandai already has done this actually with the Sailor Moon Figuart, but I'm guessing that's more because of the size of her arms.

Figuarts has come a long way; even some from two or three years ago look rather outdated.

I would really like a stand to come with the figuarts, Ryuki lines did it perfectly they even gave one to Abyss. Others that are exclusive such as Joker get their own stands as well, but I don't like buying separate stands with my figure when it come have easily been package with the figuarts it self.

I want Bandai to do more hidden joints in the chest like they do in SRC, so the arm range can extend, for example Kyoryu Red can't do his spinning the Gaburevolver chamber pose, GoBuster Red can't get his arms out from behind the shoulder straps.

People voting "Less Tamashii Web Exclusives" need to sit down and think about the fact that without Tamashii Webs, we wouldn't even get most of the Figuarts.
I'll say more hands/accessories. Some are perfect (the Gokaiger, Jetman and Shinkenger, Tyranno Ranger and Hurricane Red) while some are lacking (Kibaranger, Pteraranger) and some are missing just one of two important things (DekaPink and Yellow).

Changing the hand style is definitely my biggest concern, since the two figures I've had break on me have also been two of my most expensive ones (Gavan and Basco). Even if they just started selling bags if spare joints I would be happy, but I don't really understand why those two figures have wrist joints that are thinner than the rest of my 40 odd figures.
The lack of hands is something that bugs me sometimes, but it varies by figure. I'm not expecting every figure to have 11 hands, but Kibaranger's 4 is an absolutely pathetic offering. I also agree with Locke that in the absence of the character having any weapons effect parts are the way to go forward. Figuarts also has this habit of leaving out some key weapon in releases lately (the combined gun/sword on Kyoryu Red for example, then there were ones on Ryu Ranger and Hurricane Red too). Stands should definitely be a more common thing too. Especially on figures like Shinken Red who can't really hold his signature weapon properly without one.
