Opinion on Variable Action Heroes?

would be better if 1/12 and ~$50

They're pretty excellent as long as you're not a scale autist or a poorfag.

Devilman soon and I'm still waiting on my Chopper
>>
>>5569513
>excellent
Their accessory count isn't great and their pricetag is higher compared to the typical companies, so not really.

They are quality figures though.
>>
Skellyman when?
>>
>>5569511
From the looks of things, the line seems to be increasing in quality with each release. I'd bust a nut if they gave me some pre-timeskip Strawhats.

Pre Timeskip Franky would be incredible

Luffy was a terrible release. Articulation is extremely limited, only the smiling face is accurate, and comes with no accessories. Not to mention the paint issue with his pants.

I don't know about the rest of the line, but it turned me off and im a huge one piece fan. I just want a good luffy figure and we still haven't gotten it.

I like they stuff they put out, but it feels very overpriced.
>>
>>5569511
why do they still make toys for Ace? I thought he died. I know they stopped making Going Merry merch too.

>>5569512
agreed. I own figuarts Luffy but now i want one in his long-sleeve shirt and scarf belt
>>
>>5569559
That transforms into a ball, doesnt it?
>>
>>5569565
in the source material yeah but I doubt the figure does.
>>
>>5569554
Do you even own the Luffy figure? Articulation is on par with SHF, the angry face is good, the sash is the area that has paint flaking issues not the pants, and hands are accessories. Maybe if you specifically said there was a lack of effect parts that would be a valid criticism. But it's a good figure.
>>
>>5569565
>>5569572
the VAH does not transform
there's a Goodsmile one coming out later for like $200+ that does

Terrible. Search the archives, they're a thread with tons of negative opinions.
>>
>>5569511
I don't even like One Piece but I have to restrain myself from buying these.
>>
>>5573960
Reviews have been positive. Ace especially is a stand-out. You just sound like you have an irrational hateboner to call these "terrible."
>>
>>5577006
VAH ace is a joke compared to the sentinel which came out at the same time

This line still has a ways to go.
>>
>>5577025
Hyperbole much? It has literally every single feature you would want on an Ace figure. I agree that the Sentinel came out sharper, but calling it a joke in comparison is childish. The chasm between Sentinel and VAH strictly in terms of product is minor, whereas the chasm between SHF and VAH is actually joke level.

And I'm pretty sure people would consider the VAH a better purchase than the Sentinel release strictly in the sense that by buying the VAH you'd actually have other OP figures to display it with. The Sentinel is either by itself in all its superior glory or paired with the other shitty SHF nightmares. Not really great alternatives either way.
>>
>>5569519
I want to buy this but it's so god damn pricey. Still, i'd like to have a Nirasawa designed thing since he passed. So conflicted.

Do you make sure all the books you read have the same number of pages too?

Kek.

Do you display your books? Who cares what a book looks like? Pretty terrible argument man, should have gone with something else.

Reviews are always positive. Read the thread from the archives.
>>
>>5577422
So reviews are always positive, but you still insist on reading reviews to prove the opposite simply because they confirm a pre-existing bias you have for something that you likely don't own. I'm not really sure that you're stringing together coherent thoughts here.
>>
>>5577998
Opinion != review.
I'm sorry you fell for that shitty toyline anon but trying to convince others that they're good won't change the fact they're bad. You bought bad figures, it happens.
>>
>>5573960
What kind of problems did they mention?
>>
>>5578289
So you're doubling down on the "I will disavow and ignore any positive things that I can plainly witness in a video or photographic review and will just rely on brief anonymous posts that in all likelihood I wrote myself to carry on my irrational hateboner for this line" mentality?

That's real Magneato, guy. Immensely sad and pathetic, but... neat. I'd be all for you going through one of the video reviews of these figures and piece by piece dismantling the positive claims that people are making about them. You should be able to do that, right? Because all reviews are nothing but positive and apparently lie.
>>
>>5578296
Read the thread.
>>
>>5578303
So you trust what you "witness" in video reviews? Poor naive thing.
>>
>>5578382
Which thread?

>>5578384
And there we go with the troll unmasking itself. Thanks for playing.
>>
>>5578389
Did you really jump in the conversation without reading it first?
>>5578398
>I'll jus call him a troll and call it a day
Kill yourself seriously. By your logic every toy ever is good. Well, bad news, this is wrong. Stop watching video reviews, they're made by dumbcunts like you who can't accept they bought shit/their favorite franchise is getting shitty toys and try to convince themselves by raving about how good their shit is. These toys are shit, this is a fact and if you don't like it, go fuck yourself with some wobbly low end megahouse shit.
>>
>>5578405
>this is a fact
That you can't prove because you don't own the figures. So since I own the figures, I can say with greater certainty than you ever could that they're good.

Troll.
>>
>>5578405
Not every video review rates the toys as good. They usually only review shit they like at least a little, because no one wants to do a whole review for a really shitty toy, but they often rate them as subpar, overpriced, or underwhelming.
>>
>>5578405
I'm not in your conversation with the other guy. Could you link one of the archived threads or something?
>>
>>5569511
Too big for my 1/12 collection and too small for my 1/6 collection so I passed on them.

>>5578408
>you have to own everything that is shit to know it's shit
And you're the one calling him a troll?
>>
>>5578405
I thought that the main draw of video reviews is being able to see the toy in action rather than caring about the reviewer's opinion
>>
>>5578529
Pretty much this. The video reviews look like they're solid, I trusted my eyes and am glad I did because they're good. Not sure why that one guy is leaking autism to say they aren't.
>>
>>5578894
>The video reviews look like they're solid
Video reviews can make you think whatever the reviewers want you to believe. You're naive.
>>
>>5580168
Whereas anons such as yourself are pure-hearted and come into their posts without any sort of hyperbole, biases, or intent to tear down thing unnecessarily just to feel like internet badasses. And when confronted by people that actually own things and can offer counterpoints based on experience, they apologize for their posts derived from ignorance and recant them. I TOTALLY forgot that one, my bad.

Oh wait

It'll probably bin, so maybe you can get it for cheap after? I don't really know why this movie is getting so much merchandise.

I'm still angry that they wanted a sad ending because that's how you get awards instead of the logical route of freeing the fucking prisoners and putting them on the ship.
>>
>>5580168
Yes video reviewers are able to enhance the clearly visible sculpt and articulation in a figure.

I didn't order Mihawk, mainly because I dislike his character. I have the rest: Luffy, Law, Ace, Zoro, Sabo, Nami and Chopper. Chopped is by far the worst.

Luffy has known issues with the scarf around his waist and his crotch piece. They will crack under stress. Don't pose him crazy and you'll avoid that issue.

Both Law and Luffy has weak ankle joints. Law looks a little odd with his hat.

Zoro, Sabo and Ace are are decent figures and I really have no complaints about them.

Nami is probably the best, minus she can't stand on her own.

Chopper is shit.

Anyone get Mihawk yet?
>>
>>5583874
You disagree, Bruce? That stupid thing looks good doing nothing, I guess. And the expressions are fun. But the useless stand barely holds him unless you wedge his hat in to the point where it'll ruin it. Not to mention he's what, $50 or so for a 3.5 inch figure? It really just feels like a waste of time.

Took me a few seconds to find it. I've never seen Gintama but it's nice knowing that Megahouse is really investing itself in VAH and expanding it.

Holy shit, Hancock has some huge balloons going on there.
>>
>>5588699
Coupled with the two different Nami's, plus the inevitable Robin and Bonnie, this is going to be a massively well-breasted line. A lot of people are going to be kicking themselves if they skip the women figures and they jump to $100+.
>>
>>5585245

Didnt they just announce mewtwo and lucario as well?
