yeah the poor articulation bit is in relation to not being able to articulate it without mucking up the esthetics. In terms of range of articulation I would say this has better possibilities since there's no overlapping panels in the way which is usually common on the non nano armors. That's actually what I like as the panels and such effectively hide alot of the joints and make the figures look more cohesive. Also, the arc reactor on this new figure is the cat's ass. Super nice color effect.
Ohh so you’re referring to the look of the joints, not the movement? Well that I can’t argue with. It’s definitely more obvious than the bulky suits, especially the ankles. But I think that’s just the nature of trying to mimic nanotech in action figure form. The best looking one is the Hot Toys 85 obviously, but that one comes at a high price (albeit a small price for salvation )
Found out my job lets me get gifts cards i’ve earned from not just regular Amazon but Amazon.jp as well. So i joined the Amazon.jp club. So after using the gift card i got both mark 85 and SSGSS Vegeta for $75 total.
SSGSS Vegeta was just added to my pile of loot at BBTS. Just waiting for one more pre-order to process this month and I am going give them the green light ship that little treasure trove.
I'm waiting on my second SSGSS Vegeta to come in. Gotta have one in SSG mode and another in SSGSS mode.
Jiren is going up for pre-order soon but looks like he's gonna be a Web Exclusive. January 2020 release with a price of 6050 yen. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING AVAILABLE|こどもから大人まで楽しめるバンダイ公式ショッピングサイト
Yeah, I'm sure they will too. I haven't had to order any DBZ Figuarts from Japan in a while but it could also be because I pretty much have all the characters I'd want already and I'm not as interested in the more recent releases.
Finally Jiren. Now all I need is Hit, Janemba and Toppo, and I'll be happy (even though the eventual King Piccolo rerelase as Piccolo 2.0 will be instantly bought).
are there any third party figuarts iron-spider arms? the ones it came with suck plus mine are very loose.
