kajnrig Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Phew. Those are some 80s-ass 80s designs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DewPoint Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Well they are $12 each ($59.99 set). Something is wrong with Ben, but everyone else seems OK at that price point. They are most definitely not $50+ figures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvmacross Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 It's a shame KC doesn't work this fast.....but I guess I'll take quality over quantity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kajnrig Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Sorry, I didn't mean that they're low quality. Just the designs themselves are VERY 80s. I'm getting flashbacks to my childhood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanity is Optional Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 I think, on the whole, I'd rather have the $12. And spend it on something else, like a few bags of chips or a matinee movie showing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikElvis Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Yeah I’d rather have one decent fig than 6 dumps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toynami's Series 2 figures went up for pre-order in May -- of last year -- and were slated for a September 2019 release.  Ten months later, there's still no sign of them.  Don't expect Series 3 until 2022... at the earliest.  [ . . . ] Come to think of it, that's still faster than KC.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derex3592 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Max looks ok to me actually....right up until I saw the size of his HANDS! Damn Max! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeniusornome Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Sadly, they are still some of the only representations of those characters available. Or, in theory, to eventually be available. I did like the prototypes they showed off a long while back, which had more joints and I think better overall design, similar aethetic: https://news.toyark.com/2015/07/09/sdcc-2015-toynami-robotech-165866 I think those were done up by Ori Toy, though, weren't they? Then Toynami greatly simplified them for the little ones coming out now. I'd have bought every little figure they released if they looked like those.

I am feeling the exact same way. I've received several preorder items I wanted this year, but this is the one item I have really been wanting in hand just based on the detail and beauty of it. To wait until end of October, possibly November based on release date, kinda bums me out, but maybe absence makes the heart grow fonder?

Lolicon Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Yeah the black one is pretty rare, which is why it sells for a lot. Otherwise, it's a pretty standard ichiban kuji figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treker14 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 I have several of the Robotech Masterpiece veritech/valkyries as well as some other valkyries from other companies. I normally collect anime cels through a proxy. One day I came across the Sheryl / Basara figure through the proxy. Being a Macross 7 & Macross Frontier I purchased it. I didn't know what to expect just looking at the pictures. I tell you when I took that Sheryl out of the package and saw it for the first time and saw the amazing sculping and artwork, it started a whole new hobby & collection for me.

Sanity is Optional Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 The Sheryl Gorgeous figure sure looked good, but at that size/cost it was too much for me. Don't have the space, and I didn't want to spend that much on a static fig I have to put away when my parents come by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolicon Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 I bought the Sheryl figure. It'll probably remain boxed for the foreseeable future as I simply have no place to put it at this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanity is Optional Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 My Kitz Concepts "Lisa" came in today. On the whole, it's much better than I expected. Looks good, and both the skirt and blouse are flexible plastic so even in a skirt you get pretty much full articulation. Even manages to stand without support on a pair of high-heels, so decent stability/balance also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Focker Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 My Lisa/Misa is suppose to be here today too by 8pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pontus Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Did you guys get them direct from Kitz? I'm supposed to be getting a Lisa from BBTS, but they have been very slow lately. Took them a week to ship my last item from my pile of loot. Looks like I shoulda waited, but so far, Lisa is still listed as pre-order.
