I couldn’t care leas about the E.M.M.I. Figma does weird stuff with their Nintendo licenses. How many iterations of the Samus suit have they ignored that we'd all buy? I am going to buy that Samus, though. They absolutely nailed the look. That EMMI looks like a pretty good figure outside of my thoughts on it as a "character" or the portions of the game that feature it.

Kanedas Bike Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Samus is up at AmiAmi (went up last night); https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail?gcode=FIGURE-145210 They are the only of the big three, HLJ, AmiAmi and Hobby Search that has a listing. The release date is October of next year so that would reconcile BBTS's release date. -b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if the exchange rate goes down in the next 12 months. Sheesh, it is $125 at BBTS?

I know that BBTS is rarely the cheapest options but that price tag doesn’t seem to be appropriate if your buying your stock from a wholesaler.

Cool, cool - no argument here. My point was simply that their price, appropriate or not to however they're sourcing it, or any other factors, doesn't surprise me. And that when I look at them, it's usually for the sake of comparison. -b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully agreed, awesome figures, I missed out on the old Max Factory figures way back in the day so I was hyped to grab all these newer Figma releases, Guyver 3 is fantastic!

My old one is still boxed up after the move, but I think they also textured the joints. I was looking at some old pictures of mine and they’re unfortunately hard to tell, but I think some of the joints around the wrist, knees and elbows may have been smooth and these may be different.

General Rasp Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 If you pre-order through Goodsmile's website the base is a bonus, but you have to order through their website. I have the original figma Guyver 1 and definitely want to pick this newer version. The Guyver figures are probably the best Figmas made.

They’re a lot of great details and awesome paint application as well as a great use of the softer plastic to allow for extreme mobility. All that and a great subject.

Big s Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 It’s a pretty good looking figma, but really expensive for me right now. I also kinda liked their JSDF soldier, but I really don’t want to pay over a $100 bucks for a figma that isn’t a must buy item. Action figures are really getting pricey these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, can't bring all of them on to the other side so there's no point of getting everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

technoblue Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Dread Samus was up on Good Smile’s own site a while ago. The first batch is coming out Q3 this year.

I looked at Hobby Search and couldn’t find a listing there, but did see the Goodsmile listing. Maybe it was a web exclusive since the only other place I found it was a site that deals proxies for web exclusives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
