Goddd this is frustrating. I’m keeping my pre-order but AGH.
I’ll probably mostly be keeping him in his signature pose, at least…

He’s the equivalent to Kuuga in popularity, prominence, starting a new era; he won a big award only otherwise given to Z, Kuuga and Dekaranger; the style of storytelling was for Toku so new that it influenced not just Ultraman going forward but Tokusatsu in general… so yeah, you could say that! It’s probably one of the most popular and influential Tokusatsu shows of all time

That makes this situation like, quadruple unfortunate and I am so sorry for you all. Zero idea why toy companies keep thinking rubber parts are a good idea.

Blame it on those collectors who complain about joints ruining the general sculpt and look of figures.

Context from the source:

Shinkocchou Seihou Tiga, thanks to the articulation in the shoulders, can be posed with its arms crossed in front of the color timer, but if you bend them too deeply, the paint will rub off, so it's probably best not to do it.
If you do it gently, it might be okay. Last edited by Kiwami; 07-30-2021 at 07:17 AM.. |

I mean yeah that's certainly a factor, but at the same time rubber parts not only degrade over time, but also tend to look uglier than joints ever do whenever said rubber is articulated, so it still confuses me.

And it gets like a universal negative response from fans. No-one likes this and they’d better stop fast

Sigh. The poses I’m planning to put him in don’t require the arms crossing over the chest like that, so if it’s the source of the problems, I have some hope. But seeing multiple reports before HLJ even gets their stock in is very discouraging

IIRC his abdomen is also rubber, so be careful if you plan to crunch him forward or back too.
