But hey I actually think it might happen. The Minipla line started out very barebones and now they are some of the best representations of their figures available anywhere --- but this definitely comes at a cost; the rebranded Shokugan Modeling Project "candy toys" are nearly $100 for each kit.

SO-DO figures have been improving a lot every year in paint apps and articulation and I could see the SO-DO Chronicle line doing more to cover the backs. In fact, SO-DO Gaim was surprisingly covered. My dream upgrade would actually be compound eyes, but that would definitely never happen.

Honestly, I'd be willing to pay $10 per figure for a fully-painted 4-inch line. Like an even better version of SHODO.
