That Madoka figure price is crazy for a 1/7 scale.

@ZuccoFigures 24 күн бұрын

Yeah even with it being creative I just don't see the justification on that one

@imhungry2942 12 күн бұрын

Thought so too but I think it might be the fact that you can change the backing on the mirror to be like the sky, a mirror or nothing at all. The frame looked like metal too so that might be it. Still doesn’t really justify it to me tho💔

as a huge komi fan, I'm really excited to be getting another komi scale! personally, i think the bonus face is a lot better than the default face she comes with. and i agree, adding the floating chairs and desk would have elevated this figure and made it so so cool! while i do agree that her price point is high for what she is, I'm just gonna cope and say its because of how big she is lmao. she's listed as a 1/7 but picture's I've seen of her at figure events next to other figures, she honestly looks like a a massive 1/6.

@ZuccoFigures 23 күн бұрын

Yeah I mean when I look at the figure I see nothing wrong with it. Just a little missed potential with the base. I can complain about the price but that's really just a me problem at the end of the day lol, and when it's a figure I want the price has to be REALLY bad for me to not get it

@nulleins8672 23 күн бұрын

imagine if they had one chair kind of floating beneath her, make the chair connect to the base and komi herself connect to one edge of the chair. boom no stick up her booty 😅 i know it‘s kind of hard to pull off but for this price they could have tried something like this don‘t they?

I'd been on the fence about pre-ordering that PUP-L Mirko since I already have her ARTFX-J 1/8 but seeing your review, I'm convinced I NEED her. It really is a fun, if simple, pose. 24:00 I can't confirm but I'm pretty certain Pink Rouge is just an adult-focused offshoot of EnsouToys, similar to FREEing and BINDing. There's another figure 'Pure Succubus Liz' that has two versions, a "sfw" from EnsouToys and an R18 version from Pink Rouge. I do like the pierced tongue expression, as well as the pierced ears on the DX but still clothed version. The adult DX just isn't worth the 26k for naughty bits.

Its kind of crazy that we have someone like GSC putting out Mio, Rapi and Rikka for $15-16k yen depending on if the store you buy them from has discounts or not, and then you look at Amakuni putting out that Makoto for $30K yen. Hmm, makes you think. . Kotobukiya is basically the Ubisoft of figures, so I'm sure Adol will be cheaper over time. They announced they were doing some Yakuza figures so I am pretty excited for that.

@primordialpredominant6379 23 күн бұрын

Zucco, you should make a video discussing hypothetical figures you'd want of characters (maybe in particular scales or poses) made by a company of your choice that you think would capture the character best. Here's a few for thought; Tifa Lockhart (FF7 remake) by Flare, Eve (Stellar Blade) by Flare, Seras Victoria scale by Max Factory and just some good Dragon Ball scales maan (bet if they picked out the sculptors from Banpresto and gave them better materials for the figures like max factory or good smile level quality we'd get ideal DB produce) Also likely a unpopular take, I really enjoyed Megahouses Dimension of Dragon Ball line I really wish they released that Vegito they showed off. Just an idea for a video that could create some good interaction.

I’m so excited for him to come out!! and I believe there is also a regular/standard version that doesn’t have the dragon but is cheaper! also pumped for all of the Genshin/Star Rail nendoroids being announced/released. still hoping they’ll do Kaeya and Xiao too 🫶

@Josephll64 23 күн бұрын

The BRS is tempting, but so is every BRS for me. It's hard to hear that she'd be in better hands with GSC when they manufactured the recent "Inexhausible ver.". I really don't know how that turned out the way it did since normally I'd agree with you. I'll likely pick up the Rangiku. I might've skipped on the Char because of the price, but we're at over 160 yen to the dollar now. Amakuni feels like the canary in the coal mines so to speak when it comes to future pricing. (I've been seeing the 2 company approach for a SFW/NSFW ver. more recently because it sometimes really means "Chinese market/JP market" depending on who's involved)

The Adol is a 1/7, which kinda justifies the price more, but there's finally a good Adol, so imo, it's worth it. Plus, if it follows in the footsteps of the Trails figures, he'll shoot up in price.

18:28 I don't know, I ended up preordering because I like samurai, and having a cyberpunk flare is a bonus to me. It looks more like she's at rest before a fight so it's fine to me, like your character from FF14 with their weapon drawn. Still looks pretty detailed, and purple is a bonus for me. Does help AmiAmi had her a couple thousand yen cheaper. There's another Baiken. I'm waiting for that one. There's a bit of an issue with the Monster Hunter ones, possibly. We need better angles on the hands; they're wyverians, and wyverians do not have pinkies. These figures seem to have them, so if definite, it's an inaccuracy. I'm planning to wait to see if it's true and if they drop because of it. Not enough to say no because I love the quest maidens, but enough not to preorder at full price. *sigh* Why is the cow girl in the kimono actually tempting? I think it's the serenity and the kimono. The Amagi is tempting too, even if I have the normal one. But that's because I'm a sucker for fox ladies. The dragon duo, Ch'en and Dan Heng, are also tempting. I want the deluxe of Dan, but it's pricey. So I might opt for the normal one. Ch'en's tempting just for the traditionalist look.

I'll go against the stream and say I don't like the Miku at all.. I think the background / base is fairly random, and the color scheme doesn't work for me at all.. nor the outfit or face or hair remind me of Miku either. It looks to me like more just an OC. There's also 0 shading on her hair (head not twintails) and to me it looks kinda chonky, with a lot of connected strands on the sides. Gotta give them credit for the fabric sculpt, but overall this doesn't work for me at all for some reason.
