Dupe or no? Really enjoy this figma but with it being older and getting it from eBay I need some help verifying from the community. I got really good vibes just from the packaging, figma stand, Japanese instructions, etc. but always open to comparison and second opinions!
I'm currently working on a football website and I'm hitting a wall with the UI/UX. I want to achieve a premium, data-dense look (think Apple Sports style), but every time I add more things, it feels cluttered, and if I don't have enough things, it looks empty. Has anyone here tackled 'density vs. readability' in football dashboards? I'd appreciate any feedback on my current layout and design, including font, colours, spacing!
So I recently purchased a Yoh Asakura figma for a decent price, but then I noticed something. When I was inspecting it, I noticed that the Kodansha sticker on mine was pink and every one I’ve seen online has it white instead. Should I be concerned that I got ripped off or something?
I recently got the Figma Black Rock Shooter TV Animation ver, brand new and unopened. I did expect some plasticizer stickiness since this thing has been sitting in its box for about a decade by now. But even after two soaks in water + dish soap mix, the flexible parts are still a bit sticky. Not quite sticker texture, but I feel a little grip when my fingers go over them.
This is the first old school figma I've gotten, so idk if it's just supposed to be like this or if I haven't completely cleaned off the plasticizer yet. I'm getting worried about the paint, so I haven't done a third soak yet.
So I'm a little new to Figmas. I've known of their existence for a while now, but never had the funds or space to snag them for my collection.
Recently, I ordered this figure of the male protagonist from Fate/Grand Order off Amazon, and while I was pleased with the price and how quickly it came, I immediately noticed something off about the figure when I unboxed it. The feet were stuck in a strange position compared to pictures in the listing. I haven't fiddled with it or done anything risky yet, but I want some help to see if this is something that I can fix easily (or with some hard work; I don't mind either tbh), or something that'll make me order another one of these.
The first three images are how my figure looks, and the fourth one is how I assume it's supposed to look.
So I bought this Samus Prime 3 figma at Gamestop on Friday, and I'm just very disappointed. I was so excited since I had a metroid larva figure for the longest time. I wanted to display them together, but a las upon opening the figure, I found that both legs are extremely loose and can barely stand on its own, one of the green side panels on her right leg just fell off and bringing the thigh flap with it that allows for more mobility, and on top of it all the head comes of the joint any time I try to turn it.
I have till Friday to return it, and I'm seriously thinking about doing so. We're so limited on Samus figures out there, and I do like how it looks and the good articulation that works, but it really bummed me out, especially for that $110 price tag. It didn't even include effects for the character.
Am I overreacting, or am I justified? Help.
I know SHF is THE jjk line, but Figma is pretty good too and has a better mask off head imo.
I have three legend of Zelda Figma figures: Link from Twilight Princess, Link from A Link Between Worlds, and Link from Tears of the Kingdom.
I’d love to find/commission some custom face plates for these figures, but unfortunately, there’s far less figure customizers for Figma than for say Marvel Legends characters.
Has anyone seen any customs of these three faces on Etsy, Cults, etc?
I used to collect figma a few years ago, and have unfortunately had to move 6 times in the last 3 years, but now I finally have a permanent spot and can display all of my figures/collectables! You can tell I have a favorite haha.
Also side note, in those moves I’ve since lost all of the spare parts for all of my figures, and I had a few I wanted to sell (not pictured) and have no idea what they’re worth. Should I make a post tagged sale or question for that?
I was really excited about this figure but in all honesty I am disappointed.
Poor QC and a very dull expression. The sword hilt and ponytail CONSTANTLY come out when posing. I would have preferred fewer sword options and more face swaps.
The design is spot on but the old style joints do make non-static poses take a hit.
For figures that are over 10 years old they really are impressive still. Good, solid articulation. They look fantastic. They have creative little details like the suspenders being a soft plastic material that can easily bend any way you move it. As usual with Figma, they are a bit fragile. Not enough thar I feel like I might break them, but enough where I took notice and was more careful with them.
Ryuko might be the superior figure between the two. She poses better due to Satsuki having the hard plastic shoulder pads, and her range is actually pretty good. Her faces have good expressions(though I'd have loved a teeth gritting face) and the detail is spot on. I can't really think of any particularly big flaws with her besides...maybe a lack of waist articulation.
Satsuki has issues during to the left or right with her head due to her hair and shoulder pads. But besides that she poses well. Good range, though much like Ryuko her waist has no articulation so there is some issues there. She is PACKED with accessories, however. She comes with her signature sword, Bakuzan, both sheathed and unsheathed as well as the other half of the scissorblade. On top of that, she also comes with a little peg to slot in the middle of the scissorblade to complete it, both in regular or decapitation mode. And in the back of Satsuki's box there's a little paper stand that has a group of one star goku uniform wearing students.
Overall, great releases. Very costly nowadays, but honestly fantastic releases. I WISH we had gotten more from Figma with the KLK line. We did get Mako, but no Gamagori, Nonon, Nui, Ragyo. Even just sticking to the main 2 characters, I'd have loved Senketsu Kisaragi Ryuko or Satsuki's KLK IF Junketsu Shinzui form. Or even their regular school uniforms.
Ah well. Fun releases. Would recommend(if you can get them without cutting off your arms and legs).

Had a bit of qc issue, paint transfer on the thighs, and a messy paint on the hair. But beside that, don't have any complaint
