Re: S.H.Figuarts IronMan
I believe the SHF one is based off the initial concept arts. Really don't know who is to be blamed though

Re: S.H.Figuarts IronMan
This. It's a shame because I'd have thought SHF would have done better but it's really surprising how much better the Revoltech turned out.
Mainly because he's based on concept art with unfinished details while the rest are Bandai's own flubs. His expression looks underwhelming and his proportions look wonky due to the smaller size than being to scale. Neck sculpt isn't thick enough. The internal body structure of his abs are solid pieces (unlike the Revoltech which are actually hollow) and despite various sites initially stating him as being taller than the Revoltech, that proved to be false in the end and he even looks shorter. The two-tone silver finish, while nice, doesn't have as much of a metallic sheen to it unlike the Revoltech. But worst of all, it can't even stretch out its arms to the side because Bandai couldn't figure out a way to make his joints work with the design (an issue that the Revoltech actually found a solution to).
I mean, I still have this guy on order so it's not like I'm just throwing random crap at it either.
I mean in the above pic, the Revoltech isn't even posed properly and it STILL looks better.

Mine is on the way from Japan as we speak. I'm super bummed it came out like this, but at this point, kinda up the creek.

Re: S.H.Figuarts IronMan
Me too. I mean, I don't out and out hate it since I think it's an okay figure based on Ultron's non-final render, but given how this is Bandai and how good their Figuarts lineup usually turn out, I really expected better from them.

Re: S.H.Figuarts IronMan
It's like you're in my head. I love my figuarts figures in general. I'm sure I'll still display it, but for what I paid vs what we are getting, I'm a little underwhelmed.
S.H.Figuarts Civil War General Thread
Thought this warrants its own thread than combining it with the Iron Man one.

Re: S.H.Figuarts Civil War General Thread
There's already a discussion here, I don't see why it needs a seperate thread. If it needs a new one, why don't we have one for the upcoming IM3 figures as well.
I don't think the Figuarts are very well received here unlike the HTs, so a small thread for discussion is more than enough.

Re: S.H.Figuarts Civil War General Thread
Thats a specific Iron Man one.
I think its better to have a separate Civil War one, as theres other characters like Cap, Ant Man, Black Panther etc.

Re: S.H.Figuarts Civil War General Thread
Yeah, there's discussion on other characters as well in it. Since the 6 inch ones isn't that well received in this forum. I don't think it's going to work with seperate threads just to discuss that particular character or series.

Re: S.H.Figuarts Civil War General Thread
I'll just leave it here for now, and if it doesn't pick up, I'll merge them with the Iron Man one and change the title to Marvel SH.Figuarts thread.
