sooo i think i know what i dont like the transformers figs... they need more detail... i mean look at megatron? hes mostly just white.. they need to paint more detail on these figs... wires, scratches, etc... every nook and cranny should have a color inside it

 

[ihateusernames]

I just don't get why on earth the megatron toy colour scheme is nothing like the one in the film, just a few different shades of metalic silver paint and maybe some black or something would have been fine.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

i just think when they have such so much sculpted detail.. thats just painted over all in one color... it make the fig look very cheap

 

[ihateusernames]

Yeah I agree, Thats why the movie figures haven't been my fav, the onlys ones I've got are Ironhide and starscream.

Ironhides ok, but the fact he seems to be all black just means you dont see any of the detail in him.
I think Starscream kinda gets away with it in robot mode, but when he's in Vehicle mode, he just looks like... creamy.

I wouldn't mind if they just gave us the option of stickers, either though.
I used to love putting them on myself when I got a new Transformer back in the day.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

problem with me and stickers back in the day... sometimes it was hard to put them on in the angles they wanted them on as, and they'd get all crooked.. and they were so sticky if u tried to pull part of it off, itd rip

 

[ihateusernames]

easy solution, just give us two packs of stickers. haha.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

lol unless the stuck sticker is stuck on your fig then id have to goo gone it and hope it works lol

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Or just don't be a dumb ass clumsy clown and put the stickers on correctly. Its not that hard, unless you got nubs or hooves. And if you do have nubs or hooves get somebody else to hook up your stickers correctly. Its not hard to ask. Unless you can't talk. But even then if you have nubs or hooves and are a mute or have had your tongue sliced off you can write it on a piece of paper and give it to a friend with detail on how you'd like to have your stickers placed correctly. Oh, wait, if you have nubs or hooves you may not be able to write.

Ah, well, then your just flat out f***ed.

Dan Hibiki:

Gadouken! [Self-Taught Fist!]

Yatta ze...Oyaji!!! [I did it...Father!!!]

Do you have any loose joint problems with Dan. I can hardly pose Ryu, Ken, and Akum. The leg joints are so damn loose. I think i got a bad batch of these new fighures

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

That sucks dos. Personally I don't have any of the newer Previews figures from SOTA and I don't have that Dan. But I do have alot of the reg series figs and have never had much of a problem posing them save for maybe a slightly loose joint here ana there but thats been few and far between. I hope this doesn't turn into a trend with SOTA figs. I always dug the fact that guy like Adon could easily be posed and balanced on on foot (hell, I had Adon balanced doing an extended kick on one tippy toe!) so hearing of loose joints and posing problems is not good news to me.

Yeah my older figures still have tight joints and pose beautifully. Ive only had problems with the second wave and up. It is even more of a problem with the preview ones i got. Its really terrible i cant even get akuma to stand. He is like a damn rag doll. I had to crazy glue some of Kens leg joints. Ryu wasnt as bad but he still doesnt stand very well. I hope they get that fixed

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Damn man, that is seriously screwed up. Well, its worth a try but sometimes with a loose joint I have these small rubberbands that're about round enough to go on a finger like a ring. Anyway, I set it into a joint and tug and twist and go over the appendage again and set it into the joint. Works great on ball shoulder/ball hips. Stuff like knees/elbows are too visible to pull it off unless the surface is black and the bands blend in. But atleast at the ball shoulders/hips it helps.

God damnit SOTA.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Well, does your Dan have the loose joint syndrome???

 

[Ryo Jin]

Well, does your Dan have the loose joint syndrome???

I think one of his legs are, but it's not bad; still stable.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Cool. So he uses the Akuma/Gouken body, right??

 

[dos_acoustic]

yep, it looks like all of them do. Another thing that sucks about the previews is that they only come with one head. Not sure if this will also apply to the Revolution waves

Thanks... i was looking for a different thread!

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Is the Shin Akuma loose???

 

[uchiha_itachi]

how much for the hush harley quinn and devil may cry dante? and are they loose?

edit: one more question, is dante the revoltech one?

 

[Ryo Jin]

All are still sealed unless otherwise noted [Meaning only Bats, Cyborg and Raven] and no, it's the Dante figure from Devil May Cry 1 that came out years ago. I may or may not sell him though, still thinking about it. At least $20 American for Harley since that's what I got her for.

 

[MangleBoP]

How much for Bobby Drake?
