Figma Action Figure Collection - Complete Photo Sets

Sate · Post by **Sate** » Mon Jun 25, 2018 11:52 pm

Evening,

Oddly enough, oberyn is right on the mark. Today's Figma is the spunky hothead Ryuko Matoi from Kill la Kill. She comes with two face plates, half scissor blade, shard blade, and the standard Figma accessories.

Occasionally when browsing Figma you'll come across some with a sticker on the front labeled "Sales Outside Japan Only". Early on like many other Japanese products, all Figma figures were labeled for sale in Japan only, but starting I believe around the 200th and up numbers they started official exporting them through companies like Tokyo Connection, though as you can imagine a big label saying "don't sell to other countries" won't work well when it's in demand outside Japan.

There doesn't seem to be any major quality difference between the different versions sold only in Japan or made for export, as instead the quality of a Figma figure depends more on when it was manufactured rather than for who. In the end, the figures are still very well made and sculpted compared to competitors which stays in line with the company's motto, "looks good, poses well".

Pricing

Average Cost: $45-70 USD

Price Paid: $25

Afternoon,

I'm surprised this thread has gotten so many views, over 5000 already. Hopefully everyone is enjoying the photos.

To celebrate I'll be doing a giveaway of one figure from the thread complete in box, Figma 088 Mirai Suenaga. Full disclosure I planned to sell this figure after finishing a minor repair on her but I consider giving her away as the better move.

I'll be posting another update with a link to the giveaway, which itself will be posted in the Sale section so it doesn't crowd the thread. The giveaway will be open to US members only since I'm covering shipping, but if you live outside the US and still want to participate I'll cover up to $10 and you can provide the rest for shipping based on estimates for USPS.

Morning,

Today's Figma is a artificial warrior Sygnum Knight from Nanoha Strikers. She comes with a heap of accessories: three face plates, bow with arrow, sword with sheathe, flaming sword blade, extended chained sword blade, alternate hair piece, and standard Figma accessories.

Using the Figma stand with the figure is arguably the best way to pose the figure for photos. While Figma figures do have flat feet to post them with some effort the figures are usually unbalanced due to their unique designs especially when adding on weapon accessories, making mostly standing shots the only viable ones without tricks or posing techniques and even then really unique things like jumping poses aren't doable without something like wire.

Pricing

Average Cost: $45-80 USD

Price Paid: $27

Pricing

Average Cost: $110-140 USD

Afternoon,

Today's Figma is another Hatsune Miku figure, this time it's the 2014 racing version with her motorbike. She comes with two face plates, an alternate sitting lower body, and standard Figma accessories.

In addition to the figures Figma also has a small though not well known line of 1/12 scaled vehicles for the figures. The line includes bikes, scooters, motorboats, and even a tank along with horses. While not priced higher than the figures they are a little harder to find though you will find the occasional price hike on the secondhand market.

Pricing

Average Cost: $50-70 USD (Figure Only)

Price Paid: $58 (Figure + Bike)

Afternoon,

Today I have something a little more unique, a custom Figma action figure.

Since I own so many of these figures and regularly take them apart to see the structure sometimes I notice certain parts fit well on other figures, and being an impulsive person I set out to create something new and fun. This figure uses parts from four different Figma combined with a modified torso joint, and the overall look and articulation is excellent.

She can even do the splits, though I forgot to take a picture of that.

Enjoy the photos.

Those dolls are really beautiful!
Great work of doing the reviews

And i happen to like the 1/12 scale bike as well

Lately i found this toy bike but it looked interesting:

I'm pretty sure it is about 1/12 scale.
Maybe i should get a Figma now

Evening,

That bike does look nice, the Figma version unfortunately is definitely more of a toy (shiny appearance, lightweight plastic everything, noticeable split seam line).

I don't have anything on order, so assuming I don't buy anything already released the next Figma posted will be Kasumi from Dead or Alive when she releases next month.

Evening,

Here some photos of another custom Figma I put together.

This one uses parts from four different other Figma figures to create a pretty well done hybrid. The torso features an enlarged bust and robotic appeal, exposed thighs with armored stockings mesh well with the slim lower body and butt, and lightly exposed lower arms with fingerless gloves keep the overall look consistent.

Enjoy the photos.

Component List
- Head / Lower Legs: Figma 092 Hitagi Senjyogahara
- Thighs: Figma 321 Mash Kyrielight / Shielder
- Torso: Figma 180 Cryska Barchenowa
- Arms / Hands: Figma 205 Futayo Honda

Afternoon,

Here's another custom Figma, this time it's combined with modified parts from Bandai AGP, another 1/12 scale figure company.

The quality isn't close to the same as Figma, but they have lots of characters Figma doesn't have and with a little work the parts can be combined.

Enjoy the photos.

Component List
- Head / Legs: AGP Kongo Kai
- Torso / Arms: Figma 321 Shielder / Mash Kyrielight
- Hands: Figma 220 Ryuko Matoi
