I'm hoping one of those is gonna be Nexus! Maybe even Noa and Dark Zagi.

Nexus might be cool, but I'm really trying to stick to just the two original shows.

The new announcement was Geed Magnificent, not Ultimate Final like I was hoping.

They're also selling exclusive issues of ULTRA-ACT figures at the event... For some reason.

And again, to destroy all your hopes - this is a New Generation Heroes event, no Showa or Heisei figures will be shown off or revealed. Only characters from 2009 onwards.

Nice, I hoped that if they do another Geed design it'd be Magnificent. If only we could get a Pedanium Zetton alongside this one, since both first appeared in the same episode and it was one of the more memorable Kaiju from the series.

However...

Geed Magnificent is confirmed for an August release as a P-Bandai exclusive. He comes with the Geed Claw.

Would any of you mind seeing an SH FiguArts for Negan from The Walking Dead?

Why not, it it because you don't trust Bandai at doing a western IP?

Because it's a terrible character from terrible source material that doesn't need a super articulated figure. It's just a guy with an edgy weapon for edgelords to fawn over. It would be a monumental waste of time to make.

What characters would you like to see them tackle that they have not done before?

Something that is lacking in good quality super-articulated figures from a franchise that can benefit from it. I don't have any examples off the top of my head.

I believe Dark Souls and The Witcher need some articulated figures. All they have are statue figures from what I know. I think that's a good example in my opinion.
Yes, Hatsune is my Waifu...

HALO really needs it, tbh. McFarlane not being 1:12 scale bugs the hell out of me, and the less said about Mattel the better.

Would Spawn make a good figure?

Absolutely. Buy that's Todd McFarlane's baby, I doubt anyone other than Mcfarlane Toys will ever make a Spawn figure.

I'd kill for a Daft Punk re-work. Each era could be its own figure!

I'd like to see Bandai tackle Metroid if Figma is going to do jackshit with it.
