Figma; figures plus action

"Friendly fire, isn't."

whilst browsing at a local hobby store, i saw someone buying a Figma Saber figure. I've always thought that anime figures are just display figures w/out any articulation and usually the favorite collection of the not so normal people.

The dude I saw bought the last one so i went home w/ nothing but the desire to get that one as soon as its available again.
Check the reviews of that figure

To those who have no idea what is Saber, SHE's a character in Fate/Stay Night.

I have to get rid of the urge to get one, it might take all of my interest in gundams..

If you're familiar w/ HCM Pro or Robot Damashii Gundam toys, they are quite similar only that Figma are based on non-gundam anime. In short action figures if you want to call it that

i Just bought 3 figma's from Suzumiya haruhi no yuutsu and from what i have seen there articutation is pretty good.
i'm planning on getting the whole SOS dan so far i have Mikuru Asashina Asakura Ryoko and Tsuruya-san, the last to aren't members of the sos dan but i want all the normal/school uniform Haruhi Figma's. I'm thinking about getting Saber but i'd rather Have Saber Lily( the white ver.)

yup a rider figma would be sweet

anyway have you seen the latest 2 figma's one is from Ikkitousen Dragon Destiny and the other one is from Muv luv.
I have no clue where the second is from but the Sosaku Hakufu figma with the evil eyes and stuff look really tempting.

I won't bother starting a revoltech topic so I'll post here:

Almost all reviews say Figma is better than Revoltech, I cant wait what those reviewers say after this coming release from Revoltech...

Indeed, but I like the other one better, I'm a sucker with swords :-/
That's why I'm thinking of getting one of those Nanohana Striker Figmas

yeah when i first heard about the Revoltech Reina i was hyped but now, not really besides i already have a Reina figure.

I'd go for either Hayate Yagami or Fate Testarossa beacuse really like the outfit of Hayate and she's the only one in the nanoha series that look like a traditional Mage with the staff and book. Fate just because of the scythe and the big**s Zanbar mode

I'll get this one after Saber

Yeah that revoltech reina's biggest selling point is the b**bs. No surprise that the pre-order was already full at a local hobby shop here.

meh i never really liked Signum until she went in unison with the fire chibi thing, nice whip though.

thats no suprise, the almost whole queens blade franchise revolves around b**bs. Not that i'm complaining i just wish the figures would keep theirs clothes on, then again they wouldn't sell i they did keep there clothes on.

Back to figures i think i'm gonna let Reina slide i rather buy Nanaelu if they release a revoltech of her.
Hmmm... I wonder if how a Queens blade Figma would look.

I did not watch any of those Nanohana anime so I dont know anything about them. I just like Signum coz of the weapons.
My friend told me to youtube some figma models of some actar coz he got lots of them. Also only watched two episodes of Queen's Blade then I got bored. I even got those two episodes from hentai sites... courtesy of google.

Revoltech figures have been looking a lot better since Figma competed with them in the action figure line. Revoltechs, especially the Frauleine line, looks good, bigger, a bit cheaper and sometimes with more accessories than Figmas.

But I still like Figma.
BTW I saw the Fate w/ the scythe and big yellow sword, I'd also like to get that depending on how much I'll be able to get MG Exia.

well i got a whole list to finsh before i think about getting something else, you should look up the 1/7 pvc figure of Fate she has the 2 blades that form the huge sword, imo separate the Zanbar form(big zword from) looks better.
