Fixed. He doesn't use that name anymore. I would want to see a Nightwing later on, but I want to see non-Batman ones first.

I wonder if they can do Injustice Scorpion? He is not a DC character, but he still appear in the game as a guest fighter.

Unnecessary fix...

Bingo, him being called Shazam is fairly stupid.
Billy shall always be Captain Marvel to me.

Also: :lolol

I would consider buying the Injustice figuarts if they were not so much money. I remember Batman was like $60 which is the same price for the Play Arts Kai figures.

I do hope to see more Star Wars figuarts soon. I hope we get Yoda and Darth Maul later down the line.

Yoda? How would that work out?

The use the mario build for yoda. Also when did ultimate muscle figuarts get announced

I dunno how well that'd work...

hee hee
:lol

I'd rather see Vader and the Stormtrooper again before anything else is shown. Let's get those released first, please.

That wouldn't even remotely work. Mario shows that they can do a stunted character (although Yoda could be arguably more so and thus not necessarily comparable), but in no way could you "use the Mario build" for a Yoda.

The sad thing is as much as it's cool Vader's getting a SHF, I don't really want it. I already have two figures I've used for years to display him and paying the same price for a Kamen Rider or Sentai release I'd want just doesn't strike me well.

Now if they did the Crimson Guards or Revan however...

Honestly, unless they plan on doing all of the main cast of Star Wars, I think doing Vader and the ST is pointless.

Not to mention Bandai also did those really cool Samurai-esque figures of Vader and the ST. So it does seem rather weird/pointless to make SHFs of them unless as Kain said, they plan to do a full line.

Not really licensing has always been an issue with certain properties.

What do you guys think about Bluefin Tamashii Nations survey at NYCC? Credit goes to Den-O for posting this on Twitter.

A lot of cool choices. I notice a lot of American/European choices like Judge Dredd, Mortal Kombat, Adventure Time, Game of Thrones and Bravest Warriors. I guess Bluefin is trying to expanding the Figuarts market that exists outside of japan. I guess the Injustice figuarts are another attempt made to the US market similar how the S.H MonsterArts figures and the DBZ figuarts are.

*Gasps* Street Fighter!?

Out of the ones on the list, these are the ones I'd go ape shit over:

Mortal Kombat
Cowboy Bebop
Edward Scissorhands
Bruce Lee

Still waiting for Soul Calibur figuarts. I would totally buy Nightmare if they use his design from SC1, SC2 or SC5. I hated his design in SC4.

Yeah, Soul Calibur SHFs would probably be the final death nail for my wallet. Like for a long, long time.

I don't even know how Street Fighter Figuarts would work, but I'd love them~
I'm not even big on SF :lol

SC2 is my favorite of his designs, myself.

HOw about finishing the ****ing Sentai teams!!!??

And they can't even spell Mortal Kombat right.

Off that list though, I would only vote for either Voltron or Judge Dredd. Everything else on there I do not need toys for.

Mortal Kombat is one of my favorite video game franchises. I would buy likely buy the most of the figuart line. Just do Reptile and I will be a happy man :).

If they make Titan Figuarts, they'd better be massive.

...Shit. I just realized that the characters I like in Street Fighter aren't the "Main" characters. So unless it's Ryu, Chun-Li, or titties, it won't ever get a possible release.
Sagat! Q! M. Bison/Vega/Dictator/Whatever! *Cries*

TFW It's not even something confirmed or anything :lol

A lot of these don't make sense and some are even outright stupid to me. (Fucking Bravest Warriors? Really? Something just liked by a predominantly western audience, and a very small cult one at that, and they think to give people the impression it could ever happen? [Despite how ludicrously unlikely it is, not that it's been on a poll, I know we'll be plagued with people asking forever where they are...] Bluefin, the people who repeatedly make it clear they don't even have enough sway to get Power Rangers made because they wouldn't be popular enough in Japan to sell... thought to put shit like that on the list...*).

Pacific Rim is about the only one I'd support.

Tokyo Ghoul maybe, but I really question its popularity at this point. Fairy Tail honestly suprises me Max Factory hasn't picked up, but then yeah it could work too.

*(Yeah I just really dislike Bravest Warriors...)

This is the exact same poll I saw and took at NYCC. It's nothing new. Just put the image out there to show people it hadn't changed and is null and void of toku licenses aside from Pacific Rim.

Which alone is incredibly depressing...

(Oh and it not being posted anywhere before... at least not here or that I saw elsewhere... and NYCC just being a week old, still totally makes it new in my book.)

AOT has a better chance than most of making it due to the overrated air it has gotten the last couple years. Fairy Tail? Pfft. Naruto just started getting it's two main characters out, no way FT will sell as much yet. Same goes for Card Captor Sakura & Black Butler.

Mortal Kombat & Street have good chances too, since gaming seems to be Bluefin's main focus now.

GOTG? They already have Marvel Legends. We don't need Figuarts of those guys.

Cowboy Bebop? Pacific Rim? Freddy Mercury? Bravest Warriors? Game Of Thrones? Dr. Who? Titanfall? Judge Dredd? I don't care enough about those franchises to give an opinion.

Adventure Time? Edward Scissorhands? Bruce Lee? Are you freaking serious?! Don't waste time, effort & money making those!!!

I know the Toku fandom isn't the biggest in the USA but please! We're more than just a bunch of MMPR fanwanks! But it's because of those people that those Figuarts even came here to begin with.

I'll just stick to getting Kamen Rider stuff online. Forget this garbage.

I was at SDCC but totally missed this. I would've loved to offer a vote for Mortal Kombat & Guardians.

Do you not own any of the Iron Man Figuarts? All of those are top notch. If they could do for Guardians what they did for Iron Man, I'm all for it.

I wasn't interested in the Iron Man Figuarts. Marvel Legends has been such a good line recently IMO that I don't feel the need for Figuarts of their heroes. Even if they're as good as you say, why should they get both Marvel Legends & Figuarts? Other American franchises don't get to have too many good figures of either line's quality, & Marvel's characters get both? Just seems unfair & a little redundant to me.

If they do GOTG then won't Bluefin have issues releasing them in the US similar what happen with the Iron Man figuarts? Adventure Time and Bravest Warriors are such random choices too. I can kinda understand Adventure Time, but I never heard of Bravest Warriors until recently.

I think that's only relevant to one's own collecting habits. What a company feels comfortable releasing is a completely different subject and has nothing to do with "fairness" or redundancy, which is subjective anyways. All that matters is whether it's a good figure or not, and the Iron Man Figuarts certainly excel.

You guys can have your Marvel figuarts, I want something else. What I really want is: Titanfall, Cowboy Bebop, and Fairy Tail figuarts. I want a damn Spike Spiegel figure, damn it! :lol

I think it says a lot when even I think Doctor Who Figuarts would be dumb idea.

I personally hope that the Titans would be better off in the S.H MonsterArts line in my opinion. They are monsters and their large size would be perfect for the SH MA line in my opinion. I still wish the Aliens and Predators were Figuarts then MonsterArts because their size compare to the Figuarts look off when they are humanoid characters. I want to do Shin Kamen Rider vs. Predator on display, but the sizes makes it hard for me to do it.

Attack on Titan is pointless, Max Factory's got that covered, same with Cardcaptor. Doctor WHo would be neat, and make Bandai mountains of money. Guardians would be SICK, so would Street Fighter. Tokyo Ghoul is pretty hot right now, so they could make a nice chunk of change on that, and I'd buy the heck out of a Freddy Mercury.
My thoughts exactly.

Says the man who got on my case for only ever playing a Street Fighter game once. :p

Any particular reason why?

Street Fighter is big here. I bet you he'd be a web exclusive, but mass release here.

Who cares about a BlueFin poll, even without its bizarre choices?

This isn't the first poll they've put out and when have they ever actually achieved anything? Remember the "Which Power Rangers do you want next?" or the "Which Kaiju do you want next?". None of them ever happened.

Meh, not really interested in any proproties on that list to be honest.

It's pointless conjecture anyways, since polling aren't really guarentees that those figures will ever exist or see the light of day for that matter.

While I think Figuarts-level Doctor Who figures would be incredible, I just don't trust Bluefin or Bandai with the brand at all at the moment. For a start their presence in Europe is extremely poor, so unless they literally offer the BBC a ton of money or sort themselves out the UK isn't going to see much benefit of it. Yes that's a bit of a personal issue, but I don't see them handling a UK-based property if they can't handle it in the UK well. On top of that I think Doctor Who is still very much a cult thing in Japan (it certainly isn't the level of popularity it has in the West), so while Bluefin still have to go through Bandai of Japan I doubt the higher ups are going to see it as having much profit for them.

On the production side of things, this isn't like an anime franchise - it's live action and they've never really handled this before. It won't be a case of just buying some rights, they have to buy actor likeness rights and get the sculpts looking good as well. If they were to do it I can totally only see them doing the new series Doctors (and even then I think they'd skip Eccleston because GOTTA HOOK THE TENNANT FANS) and then lazily call it a day.

Then we have the monsters, in which again I'd fully expect Bluefin to only really cover the modern series because they'll believe that's the only thing that'll sell. And to be honest, the new series doesn't have that many iconic monsters that would be worth making articulated figures of. Cybermen, Silurians and Sontarans are about it, and they're all new iterations of classic monsters. When you get to Daleks and Weeping Angels they're pretty much going to be Figuarts ZEROS, and some fans are stupid enough to not buy them simply because of that.

If I've learnt anything from NYCC its Bluefin are only interested in what's hot. So if they were to get Doctor Who I'd expect them to put about 2-3 figures at the most and then move onto something else. And that isn't really the right attitude to have when at the very least fans are going to demand 12/13 figures from them to begin with.

Ah...ok. I understand.

Personally I think if ANYTHING on that list is going to see the light of day, it'll be Freddy Mercury or Pacific Rim, since they've expressed interest in both of those things before. I think Guardians could happen to, I mean we are getting Iron Man stuff, so getting more Marvel from Bandai I think could happen. I think Street Fighter COULD happen, and I'd love to see it, since that property deserves good toys (as does Mortal Kombat, but I don't know how popular it is in Japan), and they've dealt with Capcom previously, so that might help things.
