I have never even read/watched jojo and just through sheer osmosis I still know it's one of the most nutty series ever made

Sentinel Red posted:Q. wtf is Jo Jo’s Bizarre Adventure and why do like 99% of the character designs look so absurdly cool? Hobby Link Japan sent me an email about having a sale and a bunch of this stuff was in there - it took all of my restraint not to snap up a load of these lanky weirdos. Luckily the one I liked the most (some green haired lady) was already sold out so crisis averted. Some times I feel like the only one who doesn't care for the art style of that franchise. Not to say all the designs are bad, but most of the time I see the various characters pose and start to crack up.

a lot of "jojo poses" are from fashion magazines and shows, that at least I know. he loves to peruse the magazines for the craziest photos he can find, then make his characters do those poses.   so imagine you've got some big pivotal moment in a fight, plot twist and twist, reversal after reversal, and then a character suddenly pulls a pose out of a versace catalog. the ridiculousness is the point, on top of characters being named after famous bands, jojos is a very silly series

JoJo is good and cool,though not all JoJo is created equal. Jolene's is probably my favorite arc so far.

A lot of manga artist seem to like fashion a great deal. I half expected some to actually do some clothing lines. They come off as having a passion for it with how they design the characters and the clothing they wear. DJ Fuckboy Supreme posted:JoJo is good and cool,though not all JoJo is created equal.

let's go over all the WonFes stuff, shall we? the...the page for all the Goodsmile stuff is...extensive. so let's go over some highlights! click that link for the full list of everything! be careful clicking on stuff in there, there's some really, REALLY horny statues in that list. They're really going loving wild this year, I think this might be the most stacked product list from an WonFes reveal list I've seen, and I think it shows with the number of blank grey prototypes being shown off rather than even painted prototypes. Nendoroids(and Nendoroid Dolls)! Elden Ring! Freddy Fazbear! Yakuza MCs!       DELICIOUS IN DUNGEON I AM BUYING ALL OF THESE  Frieren! and Bocchi the Rock!    My Dress-Up Darling! Fullmetal Alchemist!     their millionth Hatsune Miku nendoroid! BANG BRAVE BANG BRAVERN! Shylily!    loving JAWS!!!!! lmaooooo  non-Nendoroids! Figma! DELICIOUS IN DUNGEON I AM BUYING ALL OF THESE OW gently caress MY WALLET  Ninomae Ina'nis! Elden Ring!

They're also doing a Falin Popup Parade figure. It's not clear if this is a supplement to the Figma line or if DiD is also getting full PuP support.

Surely the first two Frieren nendos can’t be Himmel and Stark. I’m guessing Frieren and Fern are already announced?

Maybe its just because I am playing it right now, but I am more excited for the Ichiban nendoriod than I am the Zelda figs.

GATOS Y VATOS posted:Prototype Miriko from Kaiyodo being shown  Don't want to yuck anyone's yum--that Ganondorf looks insanely sick--but I still want TP or OoT Ganondorf. I'll probably still get this 'Dorf, just to support the company making more villains and maybe someday getting around to actually making a more iconic Ganondorf. The Link and Zelda I can pass on. I love BotW, but TotK left me really cold and I don't like these designs for them. Might have to go all-in on the D-in-D crew, tho.

I only have one Nendroid (the GITD Vader) and generally don't care for the line, but those LAD ones are VERY tempting. Also, I'm surprised we haven't seen more LAD figures, especially with how popular the series is nowadays.

Yeah, especially considering the remold value with all the different costume variants for Kiryu/Majima/Ichiban they could release.

I got Kiryu, and when I looked for Majima a few years ago he was $350  EDIT: but yeah, it's insane that I can list pretty much all of the LAD action figures made in the last 20 years because there are only like 4 The Diddler fucked around with this message at 03:00 on Feb 12, 2024 |
