They are good, relatively speaking related to their lower price. But make no mistake the plastics are of lower quality. It may not be immediately noticeable or something that some people even take into consideration. But there is a difference in what Bandai Japan puts out versus Bandai Asia. Most of the time that relates to electronic sounds and quality in roleplay toys but I digress. I should steer this conversation back on topic.

I'd love it if any Prince came with a basketball and were noticeably shorter than most other Figuarts.

Hey, the Dino Charge Zords are way cheaper than the Kyoryuger Zyudenryu but they aren't the worst things ever with plastic quality.

But yes, let's get back on topic. I want a Figuart of Weird Al complete with an Accordion.

early/mid 80s Prince as retail, Dave Chappelle Prince as a web exclusive. Make it happen Bandai.
