Let's See Some Cool Stuff - Super Sentai/Power Rangers Edition

They don't look very accurate to me. The heads look really small, and those extremely small waists in proportion to the large hips look really funky and feminine. Plus at least on Marvelous he doesn't even have the same colour boots as he does jacket and helmet, that seems weirdly sloppy to me. The accessories do sound like they balance it somewhat, though.

They all seem fine to me. Sometimes I feel like they look better than the actual suits. If you look at the actual suits (EXAMPLE), they look like they have alot of padding going on in the upper torso or just looks a bit loose. You gotta consider that the coat makes the hips look bigger because that is a separate part of the suit. Plus their belts look like they're on pretty tight in the example posted. The only issue I have are the hip joints for Red and the females. Red's hips have broken on me a couple times already and the female hips felt exactly how Red's was before they broke.

My current setup:

Just waiting on three more before I get them set up to my liking.

Had most of the stuff in my office to put this together this morning (though not the proper lights) as I shift things from the house to storage temporarily.

I have Marvelous and he is one of my favorite figuarts. I really love the crossed arms he comes with.

@Optics
how did the joints feel before they broke off? i have two gokai reds and the one i currently display has one leg wayy looser than the other but im not sure if i should be nervous or if i just got one with loose joints.

Loose hip joint. One leg would was just looser to move. Broke both times when I attempted to pop it off the joint. There were no cracks or anything visibly wrong before that.

Optics, been checking out your galleries aside from the forums, and man, you do great work. I still say you've pretty much done every cool pose to do with the current crop of Figuarts. It's a race to get figures, shoot them, then post pics, all before you do. Good on ya doc!
