What are the chances of these getting smaller/cheaper figures?
I love that design but they're too big for my taste and I don't feel like spending more than a grand just for three robots.
Also Getter general I suppose.
Smaller doesn't exactly = cheaper in toy manufacturing.
The reason why the figures are so expensive is mainly because Fewture only produces a small amount of units, given it's for a niche consumer base and they're a very small company.
They're not made for plebs like you and I, OP.
>>5576842
The amount of plastic only affects the price so much.
It'll still be too expensive for the majority of collectors.
Unless you're talking like, downgrading them to a mere 110mm or something.
And to answer the original question--no, they won't. Fewture just makes expensive shit, they haven't planned on appealing to a more general market anytime soon.
>>5576851
Nobody said anything about the amount of plastic used and nobody said Fewture has to be the company making the smaller ones.
Again, read >>5576833, he's right. These aren't expensive because they use crazy engineering or a lot of parts, they're expensive because the maker want them to be rare high end collectables. There's absolutely 0 technical reason these couldn't get cheap releases in a smaller scale line attracting more buyers such as SRC.

>nobody said anything about the amount of plastic used
OP said he wanted the figures smaller. Smaller = less amount of plastic, thus cheaper (to some extent). What are you on about?
>and nobody said Fewture has to be the company making the smaller ones.
Except Fewture/Art Storm is the company that makes these figures/designs. Unless you mean them sharing the rights and having another and larger company manufacture them, or something.
>Again, read >>5576833, he's right
Except I am that fucking person. You're arguing over nothing, good going.
>>5576876
>OP said he wanted the figures smaller.
That part is correct.
>Smaller = less amount of plastic, thus cheaper (to some extent)
You're the only one implying this.
>Except Fewture/Art Storm is the company that makes these figures/designs.
Why didn't you post that in your first post instead of stating unrelated shit then?
Learn to read and stop being an idiot seriously.
>>5576975
>You're the only one implying this.
Comparing it to other items of a smaller size, it's more of an educated assumption. Take their Ultraman ships for example (they're static but pretty big), in comparison to those smaller Gokins of animu or robot characters. Or their Transformer figures (which are, what, 180mm?) in comparison to their typical 24-26cm robots.
It's needless to say, but generally speaking--smaller items (especially if they're significantly smaller) are going to be less expensive than larger sizes of the same figure. Materials cost money, etc.
>Why didn't you post that in your first post instead of stating unrelated shit then?
Why should I need to state the obvious??? Did you seriously think a company that isn't Art Storm/Fewture would be making these designs, which they own?
I'm seriously confused as to what you're trying to argue about.
>>5577007
>Did you seriously think a company that isn't Art Storm/Fewture would be making these designs, which they own?
Do you really think AS/Fewture owning these designs is common knowledge?
>>5576804
Is Getter Robo cursed to only get +200 dollar toys for the rest of eternity, most of which are based on Armageddon?
>>5577435
No there's also SD figures nobody asked for.
smaller but not cheaper, Studio Halfeye have finished the design for their new Getter 1. Given that each new Simple Change line Getter included the kibble from the previous forms, who wanna bet they're gonna make a new Perfect Change version?
>>5577074
Absolutely, if you're even familiar with Fewture.
Way to call somebody an idiot when you don't even know the damn subject!
>>5577447
which are also retardedly expensive for SD figures
>>5577674
>Absolutely, if you're even familiar with Fewture.
Never said I was. Stop assuming tons of shit based on nothing which is why you're an idiot.
>>5578283
>Never said I was
Then don't argue about it if you don't even know the subject to begin with.
This is common sense, seriously.
>>5578503
I never argued about something that requires to be familiar with Fewture stuff. Holy shit dude, could you stop assuming, not understanding what you read and try to follow a simple discussion efficiently?
>>5578760
Nigga, you were completely agreeing with me except the amount of plastic part (which OP even mentioned) and that another company could make these figures (something that is outright wrong).
The only things you're arguing with me about is something that OP brought into the discussion himself and something you've been proven ignorant about.
>>5579929
You definitely have huge reading comprehension issues. I sure hope you're better at communicating irl because you're pretty much impossible to discuss with here.
In WonFes, SEN-TI-NEL showed a new line of figures, called 4-Inch-Nel. Surprisingly, one of the series which would have figures is Change! Getter Robo: Sekai Saigo no Hi. I'm searching for info, but i found nothing, even in the manufacturer's website.
Does anyone know anything?
(Sorry for my English)
>>5580324
Yeah I've been looking too. Can't even find a release date.
>>5580324
There's no info available atm. Pretty sure we'll hear about Rockman before these.
>>5577605
>>5580352
I still want Arcadia's 100cm one.
I Medicom's one is 30cm
>>5583065
>I still want Arcadia's 100cm one.
That's the announced statue with moving arms right? There's no fully articulated 100cm one right?
>>5580352
What Getter is that? It reminds me of the Sentinel/T-Rex one, but it's different.
>>5583314
if sentinel's prices scares you, don't ask for studio half eye's, it will make the former look like a fucking bargain
>>5583709
Well, the old 2.00 release was only 100 bucks so I'm hopeful this one will be around that price.
>>5584204
preorders for getter 2 and 3 were a bit more than 200 bucks so it's gonna be the same
>>5584321
fuck me. Guess I'll stick with the Armageddon-based SRC for now
>>5584350
the halfeye ones transform though
>>5584373
Regardless, the most I'm willing to go on a single toy is 150$

Looks like this latest one's gonna be 300 bucks, actually.
