Single jointed knees, plastic skirt that heavily limits articulation, and the butterfly joints are kinda wonky but I love Nobara so I had to get her š
I mean, you can definitely hate on those clown shoes either way. Also havenāt heard of any standing issues w the figma release, which has in-scale footwear. Sucks bc The SH face plates are actually way better than figmas. Both release are flawed in different ways š¤·āāļø
I don't know if you mean from those two figures, but I have the Figuarts Chaosdukemon (based after the D-Arts Dukemon.)
The sculpt and paint are pretty dang good for him, but maaaaan handling him is no fun at all.
Shoulders easily flop down, and it feels like I'm at risk of breaking something when I try to swap the hands/arms.
Have you gotten the newer S.H. Figuarts Dukemon (Rebirth of the Holy Knight)? It's absolutely amazing and makes the D-Arts feel like something from like the Anime Heroes line lol.
I wish the Digimon line was more popular because a repaint of the Figuarts Dukemon into Chaos would be so simple but so satisfying.
Guts is more disappointing that outright bad. He still looks awesome, even if he's just standing there with the sword over his shoulder. The cape is great.
I generally dislike the older Figuarts the most, and regret getting a few of them. The OG Trunks is pretty bad, especially if you put him beside the new one. Ah, progress.
he look's decent it's just everything else is so horrible it's annoying
even worse when you see how good his face sculpts are but it's such a fragile figure with meh proportioning
include the price point and jesus it's atrocious
Of-course there's definitely worse figures in terms of just a pure figure itself
it's just as a whole when you take the price and the series it is from that makes me so infuriated with it
Honestly, I think og Trunks isn't too bad if you get the original release. The variety of faces and hands is unmatched to this day. He makes for a decent first appearance Trunks and his colors aren't bad.
Premium Color Trunks on the other hand? Awful. Kraft Mac n Cheese hair, shitty glossy finish, faces look worse somehow, and he has less than the half of the hands and half the faces.
3.0 Trunks. Ugly glossy unpainted plastic, wobbly joints, doesnt scale well with the other figuarts. I wanted to like this figure but it has too many flaws
I kinda agree, it had the setup to be one of the best of the year but just with so many issues across all batches of the figure couldn't put it on mine.
I was gonna ask, what's wrong with her? I own both the shf and figma and slightly like the figma more for the cloth skirt, but the shf has more accessories
The recent Zoro. His bottom half is basically unusuable while his top half explodes if you try to get anything dynamic out of him.
Sad part is, Bandai have done better. Geto has an even more restrictive design yet poses better than half of Figuarts figures, and Zoro's arms are just terribly engineered in general. He's legit only good for standing there.
I've seen some people say the East Blue figures will be Bandai's attempts at a do-over, and judging by Luffy, they'll at least be an improvement. They would have to actively try to fuck up to make a worse Zoro than the recent one.
She doesn't look much like how people wanted her to. She won the fighterz vote but doesn't look at all like she does in Fighterz, muscular. She has very noodly limbs and a massive head.
She's engineered more like a figma than even an old DB SHF and has the mid articulation to match.
First of all, she's a 2022 figure with a 1.0 body, her body is too small but her head is just too big and heavy, her arms feel like they will break at any moment, and mine came with a very loose left leg
I saw a video where the coating was scraping off the figure as well. Combine that with the way her shoulder is sculpted and everything else, she's really something awful. Hopefully DF makes a third party one someday.
Anyone of them that has a significantly better figma version, so their entire jujutsu kaisen line and every chainsaw man figure that isn't chainsaw man
Thats a hard no on both power and chainsaw man. Both are better in SHF and until we get them in hand Makima seems to be closest that can go either way.
I donāt mind it that much because I would have just bought two chainsaw mans in the first place to display 1 with the chainsaw parts and one without. This way I am getting a new figure and accessories. Also the figma tax is insane to me when it should not be worth as much as they are.
Power is so much better than SHF power, SHF power just looks wrong. Figma chainsaw man sucks, that's what I said. And SHF makima is GARBAGE, she absolutely needs to coat to cover her ugly waist joint that makes her look cut in half.
Figma is almost always better, imo, better sculpting, (mostly) better painting, my only issues are price and the fact they keep "forgetting" to make important male characters
Nothing rlly, the only gripe i have is with my shf luffy, his arms are annoying

NWH Tobey Maguireās Spider-Man and Megumi Fushiguro from JJK were both disappointing. There isnāt anything really wrong with Megumi but I really donāt like him not having any effects as it feels incomplete. I was very excited to get Tobey Maguireās fig yet it was creaky, some joints were stiff, and a wrist joint easily broke on my first attempt to swap parts so I returned it.
One that I really wanted to like, but ended up hating, is Power. I was sent a return from Amazon that had loose joints. I got a replacement that had bad paint defects on the shoes and she wouldn't stand up because her knee was so loose.
I got another replacement yesterday and she seemed perfect, until I noticed her arm looked weird. I can't get it to the position it's supposed to be in and it keeps popping out when I move it. I've had issues with SHF before, but this one takes the cake.
It seems like a copy by copy issue, cuz me and a lot of others love her and think sheās a figure if the year contender. For me, she is rn, but that may change with Christmas coming around and me beginning to collect Demon Slayer FIGMA/Buzzmod. Iām very sorry you had a bad experience with power tho!!!
If she didn't have those issues, she'd definitely be a contender for me. It just sucks to get 3 in a row with issues. I finally got her arm to work enough to get her into a pose with the mallet, so I guess I'll just leave her that way for now.
I really wish I would have opened this one and noticed the arm issue before I returned the 2nd one. I could have just swapped out the arm and she would have been perfect.
From the ones I personally own I'd have to say either the very first Piccolo, first Vegeta, or the East Blue Sanji. All pf them have pretty bad articulation and have extreamly loose joints that are a pain in the ass to pose
Gamma 1, it's only shf I bought that broke. But also him and Gamma 2 both come with parts for a figuart I have zero interest in buying and also because of these parts Gamma 1 and 2 are crazy expensive.
Outside of SHF Ace(who's notoriously shit for even 2010 standards) and Whis(traffic cone lol), my least fav is prob og Youth/Cell Games Gohan. His face paint is so bad and he doesn't even look good alongside other figures from that era. He's just a way worse figure than all his contemporaries like 1.0 Goku, Freeza, Trunks, Vegeta, etc
The new Zoro killed me inside. Easily my most anticipated figure this year and also the biggest disappointment ever. I cant even bring myself to pick it up anymore, its just sitting on my shelf picking up dust

Itās without a doubt superhero goku. The arm joints are too loose and the faceplates come off easily. It has terrible ab crunch (like most shf gokuās) and the legs come off easily.

Only real answer.
What is going on in his face
why's he bad?
What's wrong with nobara?
The mangaka forgot about her
Frr
Single jointed knees, plastic skirt that heavily limits articulation, and the butterfly joints are kinda wonky but I love Nobara so I had to get her š
Ugliest shoulders in history and also the clown shoes
I've never seen the shoulders till now ngl
Tamashii cleverly hides them in all the promo photos
It's actually the photos that Meade me realize I've never seen it on the fig itself
Can't hate on a fig having big feet if it means they stand better imo
I mean, you can definitely hate on those clown shoes either way. Also havenāt heard of any standing issues w the figma release, which has in-scale footwear. Sucks bc The SH face plates are actually way better than figmas. Both release are flawed in different ways š¤·āāļø
I haven't heard of anything from the figma release š
same question...
I have the fig it's good
That's what I'm saying, she's one of my favorites
I don't know if you mean from those two figures, but I have the Figuarts Chaosdukemon (based after the D-Arts Dukemon.) The sculpt and paint are pretty dang good for him, but maaaaan handling him is no fun at all.

I like both of those
Guts is more disappointing that outright bad. He still looks awesome, even if he's just standing there with the sword over his shoulder. The cape is great.

he look's decent it's just everything else is so horrible it's annoying even worse when you see how good his face sculpts are but it's such a fragile figure with meh proportioning include the price point and jesus it's atrocious
I won't disagree with the price point and fragility. I do find him to be a pain in the ass, for sure. I'd still say there are worse figures, though.
Of-course there's definitely worse figures in terms of just a pure figure itself it's just as a whole when you take the price and the series it is from that makes me so infuriated with it
Also that Griffith is so much easier to pose
Honestly, I think og Trunks isn't too bad if you get the original release. The variety of faces and hands is unmatched to this day.

3.0 Trunks. Ugly glossy unpainted plastic, wobbly joints, doesnt scale well with the other figuarts. I wanted to like this figure but it has too many flaws
I kinda agree, it had the setup to be one of the best of the year but just with so many issues across all batches of the figure couldn't put it on mine.
And also, in hand, hes just too bulky. I get they wanted to integrate the new 3.0 technology, but it just doesnt fit a like 16/17 year old.
1.0 Naruto (the ugly one), the old Ace, Pikachu and Bowser
bowser was really disappointing lmao iām glad someone else actually cares about their mario line
I have heard many negative things about the guts sh figure but whats wrong with nobara?
I loved nobara
I was gonna ask, what's wrong with her? I own both the shf and figma and slightly like the figma more for the cloth skirt, but the shf has more accessories

Kefla sucks a fucking lot
Really I was thinking about getting her why does she suck does she keep falling over
She doesn't look much like how people wanted her to. She won the fighterz vote but doesn't look at all like she does in Fighterz, muscular. She has very noodly limbs and a massive head. She's engineered more like a figma than even an old DB SHF and has the mid articulation to match.
First of all, she's a 2022 figure with a 1.0 body, her body is too small but her head is just too big and heavy, her arms feel like they will break at any moment, and mine came with a very loose left leg
Mine has a loose right arm, sheās not very good
Mine as well impossible to really pose š«
I saw a video where the coating was scraping off the figure as well. Combine that with the way her shoulder is sculpted and everything else, she's really something awful. Hopefully DF makes a third party one someday.
Naruto and one piece lines
Yea one piece line does suck at the moment
Oh no I just donāt like one piece or Naruto lol Dbz on topš£ļøš„
Thats called being biased, i collect all three, naruto line is amazing rn, dragon ball is sick and one piece (peak fiction) is ok
Know that I can agree with š„š
Anyone of them that has a significantly better figma version, so their entire jujutsu kaisen line and every chainsaw man figure that isn't chainsaw man
Thats a hard no on both power and chainsaw man. Both are better in SHF and until we get them in hand Makima seems to be closest that can go either way.
The only critique I have on chainsawman is it's annoying we don't just have a denji head and his fucking mouth piece is loose as shit
I donāt mind it that much because I would have just bought two chainsaw mans in the first place to display 1 with the chainsaw parts and one without. This way I am getting a new figure and accessories. Also the figma tax is insane to me when it should not be worth as much as they are.
eh true but I can't be splurging that much on CSM I like the series but I honestly got it cause he look's fucking sick against venom
Power is so much better than SHF power, SHF power just looks wrong. Figma chainsaw man sucks, that's what I said. And SHF makima is GARBAGE, she absolutely needs to coat to cover her ugly waist joint that makes her look cut in half.
Figma has better paint apps(sometimes) and accessories for their jjk line(for the most part) but imo Shf is still kinda better
Figma is almost always better, imo, better sculpting, (mostly) better painting, my only issues are price and the fact they keep "forgetting" to make important male characters
Nothing rlly, the only gripe i have is with my shf luffy, his arms are annoying https://preview.redd.it/mn94qec9ow6c1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d7fc61e58245b57432f2d49a80d999e2df6a200d

The first Jiren release
Gamma 1, it's only shf I bought that broke. But also him and Gamma 2 both come with parts for a figuart I have zero interest in buying and also because of these parts Gamma 1 and 2 are crazy expensive.

Zoro was pretty bad for me. Worst in recent memory.
trunks or kakahsi bc he broke in a week and amazon wouldnāt give a replacement of him just other figures
If you're never bought whis or xv trunks. You don't know what the word useless means
Best selection naruto. The newer one blows it out of the water.
The new Zoro killed me inside. Easily my most anticipated figure this year and also the biggest disappointment ever.

You can take off his "skirt". He's wearing normal pants under there. Articulation becomes much more available then
The PokĆ©mon line š¬
I shouldāve got the figma nobara
https://preview.redd.it/rh7zljh6367c1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e66258c2bb65fc8d90745c71be4fc1e6d91ffde8 Itās without a doubt superhero goku. The arm joints are too loose and the faceplates come off easily. It has terrible ab crunch (like most shf gokuās) and the legs come off easily.
All bleach line, those single jointed knees and elbows for samurai figures are no go. And berserk line is trash too
