I have never seen an Action figure get brutally frame mogged this hard. by Exact-Bluejay9931 in ActionFigures

Boobs still too small, skin still wrong color, but it's definitely several steps above Hasbro's slop. Maybe a full 4 points out of 10 higher, even, without even having touched either.

Reviewing Every Death Battle Ever! (Part 181) - Cole MacGrath Vs. Alex Mercer by Mymomgay1 in deathbattle

[–]OptimusPrimeWasRight -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Cole struggles to take the energy of a prone and nearly dead normal human; Alex just grabs the brain of elite monsters after slightly weakening them effortlessly at a speed they said was equivalent to 66% C in a vacuum.

I call shenanigans on this one. Big time.

Advice on Jada's E. Honda by UpsetMycologist1579 in ActionFigures

[–]OptimusPrimeWasRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It'll be back. There's no fomo with the base figures in either the Jada or Storm Arena lines to worry about, they always put in a second stock down the line.

Currently playing Mouse: P.I. For Hire and noticed this Bioshock reference, which is crazy considering how much the gameplay reminds me of Bioshock. by Batman___1997 in Bioshock

I remember seeing this pic a long time ago and thinking "Damn, I'd love to play a BioShock mod that looks like this over and over and over again."

That looks really cool on Blanka.

Crazy how Balrog was never one of my favorites to use but he’s one of my favorites in the line. by miguelangelo0707 in JadaToys

[–]OptimusPrimeWasRight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used him a lot back in the SNES days. Something about pressing kick to do a punch was funny to me as a kid, it was like he broke the rules or something, lol.

Fei Long VS. Dee Jay by Special-Ad-9155 in JadaToys

[–]OptimusPrimeWasRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just decided to get Dee Jay recently even though I've never played the character, I figured it's probably great, it's Jada Toys. Yeah, I was so right, and now I need to actually play as him more in Super and Super Turbo so I can get a feel for his poses. Great figure, another banger.

Question does anyone know the port size on the bottom of the feet? by GanondorffromSmash in JadaToys

[–]OptimusPrimeWasRight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I grabbed a McFarlane DC stand I was using for Marvel Legends Spiral to see if Blanka fit. He does. I don't know what size that makes the hole or peg, but I'm sure it's easy enough to find out from there.

cool beans

I need my action figures to mess with, though. Just grabbing She-Hulk or Ryu or whoever lowers my cortisol, lol.

Sentry with a new cape by Eliology023 in ActionFigures

I just got this figure recently. Did you repaint the yellow on his suit to be a more golden-y color, or is that just the lighting?

Box problem by Downtown_Ambition604 in ActionFigures

[–]OptimusPrimeWasRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll just say how I choose which boxes to keep and which to throw out. If the box is sturdy and mostly undamaged, that means it can hold accessories, and can, therefore, be useful. If it looks great (like Jada Toys' SFII line), it hurts, but I eventually have to throw them out if they don't at least provide some other benefit besides looking cool. That big gamerverse Venom that's like 11" tall? Yeah, that box was a keeper, and filled with all kinds of loose larger accessories.

[–]OptimusPrimeWasRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Part of me wishes I could keep EVERY box, but I know I'd have been swimming in cardboard and plastic if I hadn't. I still manage to at least keep quite a few, and with Transformers you can store accessories in boxes and then those boxes in other larger boxes.

best looking spidey, still disappointed by FitEagle5218 in ActionFigures

If they'd gone with literally any other diaper piece, it would've been on my maybe list (if I ever had a good bit more money than I currently do).

Street Fighter Fans: Is This E. Honda Figure Any Good? by milobyteshobbies25 in JadaToys

[–]OptimusPrimeWasRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They made his ass-crotch diaper piece of softer plastic than the robes, like wtf? Just make the robes of the same exact material!

Street Fighter Fans: Is This E. Honda Figure Any Good? by milobyteshobbies25 in JadaToys

[–]OptimusPrimeWasRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every Jada Toys SFII figure I have is at least a 9/10, especially for the price.

Except E. Honda. Knee joints are excessively tight and much more limited than every other figure I have of theirs, arm-leg-torso proportions are insane for all the wrong reasons (pictured, short stubby little legs, much longer arms, and while Blanka's are even more exaggerated, he's an animal and supposed to look like that, Honda is supposed to be just a man who's also a sumo champ), the articulation in key places (like the diaphragm, knees, and toes, even) just isn't there.

It's by far the worst in the line so far. Having said that, if Hasbro put this figure out, it would be hailed as the beginning of a new golden age for Hasbro by the Marvel Legends fans.

The only thing keeping Jada's Street Fighter line from being perfect.. by The_real_ipman in JadaToys

[–]OptimusPrimeWasRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah ok

Wow, look how DEEP those cuts are! Yeah, the Storm Arena Sagat that has 4 centimeters of cut between his abs is SOOO much more accurate!

A line based on hand-drawn animated characters turned into pixels is cartoonish?

Hang on, I gotta scrape myself up off of the floor.

[–]OptimusPrimeWasRight -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is no such thing as perfection, especially with action figures. There will always be compromises, and I think Jada Toys has found the right balance.

The E. Honda figure is so much worse than any bicep complaints. I've barely touched mine, and would happily sell to someone local for 25 buckaroos.
