Did someone say axe magnet?
I like how Horikoshi knows that Dabi is probably the least interesting guy right now. So after a bit of build up, it's back to Twice.
Which is good because those dudes have been excellent this arc.

Dude lost AN ENTIRE LUNG. Even All Might's were just "damaged".

I think the main thing was All Might losing most of his digestive system.

Have a very bad feeling about Twice getting a major powerup that makes him absurdly strong and now he's about to face the arc's main antagonist

I mean it's not like that's the real Twice anyway.

Looking forward to seeing his super power, Clone Cancellation.

Considering his arms aren’t broken, that looks to be a clone. Though a clone confronting the arc antagonist doesn’t really bode well either, since it’s hard for me to imagine a clone resolving things.

I'd really like if the gun works out because god, this villain is so boring. But even if it doesn't, Knuckleduster's the type to plan things out so he's probably got other traps lying around to finish this guy off.

Somehow I like Dabi's the best? It just needs a little more texture on the paint for his hosed up skin.

Yeah mass production figures can be really good but are rarely perfect, especially at that scale (I'm assuming that these are going to be around 1/12 scale like the SH Figuarts pieces more or less). The only way you get amazingly good is if they are around 1/6 like Hot Toys figures. Nonetheless I expect to eventually seen repainted ones by fans.

edit: Bandai has been making more and more inroads on realism to scale on some of their higher end stuff. I remember late last year or earlier this one them showing a new process where they make figures that have a red partial internal structure that creates realistic coloring when the slightly translucent skin overlay is put on top of it.

I only follow the figure industry extremely tangentially through what people post on SA, and I think it's pretty drat impressive things have gotten to the quality they are at now.

I mean, it would be loving amazing if they went the opposite direction and made a whole line of Fist of The North Star or Berserk figures using that technique but I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for them.

OTOH they might do some Dragon Ball figures, but again the first ones will probably be Bullma.

All Might is totally a boomer though. Got a bunch of power that he took to immediately, in an environment that was perfectly suited to allow him to use it to his fullest. Ends up creating a system that looks great at first glance but is actually incredibly tenuous and unsustainable. Can't finish his job, leaves his dirty work to the next generation and can't even explain how to to do it because he was just able to walk across the street and get superpowered. Golly Deku just work harder and stop blowing up your arms.
