Back to the prospect of SHF, I'm not honestly sure how much Bandai would provide either outside of a Link (most likely a different one, but I expect Bandai would have to do the most recent ones like GSC as well). I know Figma aren't exactly ones to do full cast line ups, but I find it strange there hasn't been a single Zelda released, even as a Nendoroid. Especially when they're doing a bunch of Fire Emblem characters and that could be considered a somewhat lesser franchise. Strange to the point where I do wonder if its something out of their control.
But hey, Bandai are doing a reasonable enough job with Mario so it could work. I think they'd have to announce a Zelda or Ganondorf right of the bat to get me truly interested though. It's entirely possible there is. Nintendo's license have been really weird. Bandai gets Mario and Pokemon, while GoodSmile gets Zelda, Metroid, and Fire Emblem... But they also get Mario so long as it's Nendoroid. Kinda weird to split up their franchises like that. Personally for me, I'd love if Bandai got Metroid and announced a Gravity Suit Samus. I'd be sold on that instantly. But that's just wishful thinking since Metroid isn't that popular in Japan. ![]() Quote:

This was the Tamashii survey from New York Comic Con 2015. At least Lupin figuarts became true. Inuyasha figuarts would be cool. I would buy them because of my middle school nostalgia.

Possibility of Tails figuart overrides my desire for anything else on that list.

I've been saying this for a while now. We have Mega Man and Mario. Come on, Bandai. Give us Sonic.

I remember Bluefin at Otakon saying that Sonic was one of their biggest requests next to DBZ reissues. I think Sonic figuarts could happens if another company does not have the Sonic toy rights.

The Akiba Showroom is currently showing new Star Wars-stuff (some of which we've seen at the Tamashii Nations-Event), a guy named to ho has a gallery on flickr with some shots:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/97939553@N02/ Among the new stuff are Mace Windu, Episode IV Luke, different colored Clone- and Battle Droid-variants, Force Awakens Stormtrooper variants, and the Super Battle Droid. The other Episode IV-guys, General Grievous or Jango don’t seem to be on display. |

Sweet, there are close-ups now. Last night there was just the wide shot of the clone variants floating around. I was hoping we'd get more.
Great for army builders, but glad I am not one. Just literally adding paint does not tickle my fancy enough to want those other clones or droids. The Super Battle Droid, on the other hand, looks magnificent. I can't wait for that thing, I always really liked its design. Mace also looks great.

Mace Windu looks good.
I KNEW the Phase I Skittle Clones would be coming, and yes, I'm gonna buy one of each, like a chump. I wonder, why is the red and blue on those guys always so vibrant, the but the green color always looks like old peas, rather than a similarly vibrant green? It's an ugly shade of green and I've always hated it when Hasbro released one in that color. Anyway, while I will totally buy the rainbow cornicopia of clone troopers, I will stick to my guns and pass on the similar array of Battle Droid recolors. Although to be honest, that blue one looks pretty cool. R2 and C3P0 look cool, I'll totally buy those. I was totally gonna get the Biker scout, then changed my mind, and now I'm back in again. I find it amusing that they posed it such that the Bandai/LFL trampstamp is so visible in the display. Darth Maul is not a Kamen Rider so I don't need his bike (nor the Biker Scout's really, I'm gonna kick myself when Bandai announces a standalone release of the Scout two days after I pay for the Bike version ![]() Farmboy Luke! Cool, I need it. Super Battle Droid... IDK, I'll probably say no to that one, cuz it will make me feel I need a regular Battle Droid. Oh man, SHF Hulkbuster looks amazing. I just don't think I can keep it. I've got it on preorder, but I'm going to have to turn around and sell it when I get it. It's so much money, and I was REALLY irresponsible with money last month (two Metal Build Gundams!) and any money I had saved up for it is now gone. D: But I want it so much, I'm going to try to keep it anyway. |
