I think I've seen these before, either at the UFO catchers or gashapon machines...

The 'highly anticipated' trading figures that has generated some hype last year. Though it's definitely not worth your money, given how expensive it is (600yen, or was it 700?), and how the paintjob is made of lose and suck.

yeah perhaps. The one thing right now that I really want but can't seem to get from the catcher machines is the Ichigo Marshmallow DX figure collection (Miu + Ana). That one is made of win + gold I suppose, but the packaging form factor makes it hard to snag successfully sad.gif
Anyone wanna make a guess which the more popular figure? wink.gif

I wonder how do those UFO catcher machines work over there... are they scam machines like the ones we have here for plushies? I'm sick of those scam machines whose claws would move very quickly and shake all over the place, causing the caught prize to drop anyway.

The variety of stuff they have for prizes is amazing; from jumbo packs of tidbits (as big as a pillow) to anime figurines to ipods to sex toys.... sweat.gif

You're now DOOMED to take some pictars of such UFO catcher machines.

Anyway, here, some pictars of the 680yen Mahou Sensei Negima figurine thing. It's really not worth the 680yen they're charging >_>

do all the gashapons sold outside of japan come without egg shell? cause come to think of it i've never actually seen any of those gashapon machines around here (except for the local ones)
*
Ofcourse. They're usually bundled up in a whole set without the plastic egg shells. Saves space and material used (they reuse the egg shells). Their plastic egg shells are hard, durable and HUGE compared to those crap gashapon machines we have here. I have 3 of them :D

somehow buying the whole complete set kinda takes the fun outta it sweat.gif if they could just bring the machines here im sure it'll be popular, even if we have to put in a whole bunch of 50cent coins into them  laugh.gif
just ordered namco gashapon. hope i get reiko *the random-ness-ness
*
I used to saw an authentic gashapon machine at Malacca, though. The machine only takes tokens, 2 tokens, that is, (though there'll still be jackasses who insert 50 cent coins and thus jamming the coin slot, causing the promoters to eventually deploy guard to prevent such jackassness from happening again) that you can buy for RM2 per token at the counter. There were 4 of the machines, 2 dispensing sailor moon crap, the other 2 dispensing Super Robot Wars crap (which I bought 3). All 4 of them are for some promotion thing in Mahkota Parade for some children/teenage wear and accessories.

That happened some 8 years back, though tongue.gif

Shit, useless 'designer' toys GTFO.

They're usually designed by some rich Hong Kong artiste who obviously needs moar cash, who then mass produce it, make some bullshit artsy comments about how he 'feels' about his designed toys, and brainwash his mindless fans into buying it, then PROFIT!

^ warped swords FTL!

Go dip that white haired fag's sword in a cup of boiling water for a few seconds, remove it, pinch it into a straight shape, then dip it while still pinching the sword into a cup of ice-cold water (with loads of ice cubes in it).

It's a resin figurine. It's already out way before Haruhi got made into an animu (the figurine was last shown at WonderFest Feb this year). Made based on the insert art in the novels.

QUOTE(Fatimus @ Apr 29 2006, 10:21 PM)
I am not sure this one worth to check it out , there's another company called Kaiyodo with their PVC toyline called Revoltech , they are all quite super poseable . Next month will see a Getter robot pvc out first .
*
We all already knew about it tongue.gif. Kaiyodo sure took a looonnnnnggg time producing this one. I remember seeing its early prototypes of the Eva series way back in 2004's winter WHF.

I'd get a Getter-1 from them, though I somehow have a feeling that the face would be screwed up if their quality control isn't strict enough (some picthurs of convention preview Getter-1s have its face painted unsharply, I can see a light smearing of its eye paints)

I might wait for EVA 00 prototype (blue) , while Dante is quite tempting since I played DMC 3 before .

Revoltech Dante is obese, has a ridiculously broad abdomen, has HUEG hands, has a weird face.

It's simply made of lose and fail compared to the slim, tall Dante in DMC3

Use photoshop and compress those images or something. They should only be 80KB max per picthur (instead of the current 250+KB).

i got dante revoltech series..
the price is not considered cheap for such small figure..
even smaller than spawn..
but good news is painting is pretty good for a small figure..
quite detailed.. come with many accesories.. guitar, sparda sword, 2 gun, 1 should be shotgun
very posable.. i tried a couple of pose.. and good news is.. it doesnt felt lose or anything..
most articulable figure i have.. namely sotatoys street fighter series, they have very good amount of aticulation but after a while.. they feel really lose now..

so do i recommend it? yeah, go get it.. its not that cheap but if u think again.. what toys we get here in malaysia is cheap anyway?
*
try.....to.....type....with....confidence....you sounded....pathethic....typing....like this....

k, so you paid RM90 (lol RM89.90 is a gimmick, gimmicks are dumb) for the Dante? I find the price ridiculously high, given how the Revoltech series are supposed to retail for only 2000yen (around RM68).

Ofcourse Dante's joints won't feel loose. That's the whole point of Revoltech (revolver joints, whatever that means). Toys in Malaysia are cheap, if you know where to find them >_>

The main issue I have with Dante is that he's horribly proportioned. The hands are huge (popeye hands! D:), the legs are thick, and his body is thick. Though after seeing quite some picthurs of him, taken by from Japanese toy fansites, I'm kinda convinced that it's because of the angle of the figurine when its photos were taken. Although Dante really have an issue with the face.

Dante is so manly, he can wrestle with Getter-1 and win!

Anyway, despite how expensive it is, I think I'll get a Getter-1 sooner or later. My love for Getter-1 and Ryoma is just that much that I wouldn't mind spending an extra 20 bucks for a figurine of it. Kaiyodo would win moar profits from me if they would come out with a Revoltech figurine for other super robots, like Daimos (oh god I love Daimos), Mazinger Z, Mazinkaizer, or f***ing DANCOUGAR! biggrin.gif
