to answer both, they're the company that makes sh figuarts, monsterarts, robot damashii, etc. and they're the company that everyone wants to acquire the license (with the exception of myself) and the reason I don't want them getting the license is if that happens I will have to completely dismantle my entire collectionAnguirus wrote:Why haha, who are they?master_of_monsters wrote:please not tamashii, please not tamashii
And which company would we all hope picks up this line?

Re: Pacific Rim figures the Sequel
Fingers crossed for Tamashii! I mean, they would be pricey, but not as much as the X-Plus ones.
Who else would be up to the task? Funko? Jakks? No thanks.

I also am interested in seeing where Legendary's The Great Wall and Skull Island figures will be done by, it would be awesome if whichever company does Pacific Rim does those as well!!

Ultimate Gipsy's light up chest would look awesome with the reactor blast coming out of it.

Ugh I looked up Monsterarts prices for their figures, ouch!!!!
If the line heads there way I won't have money for anything else!

Re: Pacific Rim figures the Sequel
I truly wonder if the weather affects figures. It seems that during winter time, there are a lot more "breaks" than during the summer, because the plastic is brittle. Having worked in shipping, I know that packages sit in the cold/heat for extended periods of time. When Romeo Blue came out, a lot of people complained of joints snapping. The plastic would be brittle during extreme cold (which at least here in WI, we have been having lots of really cold days the past few winters), and I've even heard of some X-Plus's coming with broken parts. These stories came out in... winter.
So, considering high heat and humidity for summer, could it affect the paint? I have no doubt that NECA uses less than stellar stuff, don't get me wrong I'm not defending them completely. The materials they use are strange, considering I have not been able to get ANYTHING to adhere 2 parts together. My Crimson Typhoon's left arm came off at the glue joint, and I tried 3 kinds of superglue, even plastic cement, and nothing stuck the arm on. I had to do surgery and put some metal into the boy.

I don't know if it's weather that makes the toys feel greasy, I think it's just whatever NECA does with their paint. My old Hong Kong Brawl Gipsy still feels greasy almost a full year after I bought it.

Get the other gipsy dangers Seriously, none of the accessories are new save the light-up feature, which is actually really friggin' cool. UGD also has new hips, larger feet, and extended ball joints for the ankles and shoulders increasing the range of movement enough to be noticeable, but not soooo much to be significantly better.the-killer-wc wrote:You guys know if there is any way to get those pieces from that deluxe gipsy? damn it i dont want to buy a new one of the exact same figure just for the extras.

Is that for real on the articulation? because if it is, is going to be a relief this guy is hard to give a good pose some times. And damn it actually has a light effect. "screams internally"

Re: Pacific Rim figures the Sequel
I actually wiped mine off with a paper towel and noticed some of the black wash was mixed in with it so i'd say your right, it's definitely something to do with their paint/washes.UltramanGoji wrote:I don't know if it's weather that makes the toys feel greasy, I think it's just whatever NECA does with their paint.

Are those the same joints that are on the Hong Kong GD aka GD 2.0, or would it be accurate to say that UGD is GD 3.0?SJM925 wrote:Get the other gipsy dangers Seriously, none of the accessories are new save the light-up feature, which is actually really friggin' cool.

if they were the same, why would I say they're new?
