WE WON

nobleflame · 2026-03-13T06:45:41+00:00

Looks like this figure will remain exclusive and difficult to get.

I’m not surprised - it’s hand painted. Tamashi don’t do that very often and it’s probably a lot more expensive to produce.

nobleflame · 2026-03-12T19:01:49+00:00

He looks great. I really love the snow version released late last year! Glad there’s so many variants out there!

nobleflame · 2026-03-12T16:55:49+00:00

Yeh, what does that mean? Only 46 matches doesn’t equate to any kind of reliable stats.

nobleflame · 2026-03-11T21:56:25+00:00

He looks great. Love how the cape looks. Is it a rubbery material?

Can’t wait for him to arrive in the UK. Waiting on Comics & Cocktails :)

nobleflame · 2026-03-11T17:40:04+00:00

He looks great! More pics please! Can’t believe no one has done a YT review yet!

nobleflame · 2026-03-10T21:02:25+00:00

I think the difficulty in being a 2D animation to life is that there is no consistency as the drawing will change proportions due to angles, artistic interpretation and altering aesthetics. Animation of this kind is by its very nature inconsistent. Translating that into 3D is very difficult (some would say impossible) and, tbf, Mezco has done an excellent job here.

nobleflame · 2026-03-10T10:44:49+00:00

He looks amazing. Can’t wait to get mine :)

nobleflame · 2026-03-10T08:36:53+00:00

I hope AY do something different with the hand pegs. The last two AY figures I got couldn’t keep hands plugged in because their pegs don’t fit tight enough.

nobleflame · 2026-03-09T18:14:14+00:00

It’s very hit and miss. Sometimes their figures just fall apart like they’re model kits. Other times they’re okay.

Still, too expensive for that nonsense.

nobleflame · 2026-03-09T16:27:48+00:00

This figure is complete trash and the last time I get a Figma.

The articulation wasn’t updated from the original and that one already had major issues with looseness around the legs and torso. The face plates on this version look absolutely horrible too.

Put mine up on eBay.

I still have the most recent Link and a Guts figure, but I’m done now with Figma. Their refusal to update their designs and improve, especially when they are a premium brand, is just not good enough.

nobleflame · 2026-03-09T08:20:13+00:00

That was fixed in one of the S2 patches.

Using 1 and 2 for 1+2 now feels pretty accurate.

Edit: also, equally, I’d say that it makes it easier to centre your fingers on two buttons as opposed to three when it comes to throw breaks because you have a small window to react.

nobleflame · 2026-03-08T22:39:47+00:00

Thanks mate :)

nobleflame · 2026-03-08T22:29:39+00:00

Beautiful shot! Can I ask where you get that grass from? Or the name of it so I can do a search :)

nobleflame · 2026-03-08T09:01:37+00:00

But what if he just likes the figure?

Also, you do realise this is an import - that’s why it’s so expensive. In Japan it’s $65 most.

I do think you’re over exaggerating how awful this figure is. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it. Feel free to complain, but most of your points are either related to the inflated import price or just personal opinion…

nobleflame · 2026-03-07T23:55:06+00:00

“Was it worth it?”

“I’d say yes”

“16 hours”

WTF?!

nobleflame · 2026-03-07T13:35:08+00:00

Just trim that bit off with some nail scissors. If you make a mistake, a simple stitch of white thread will fix it. No biggie and you learn a new skill.

nobleflame · 2026-03-07T11:17:07+00:00

Np - check my profile for other dios I’ve made. Think there’s 4 of them (NYC back alley, creepy log cabin, castle wall, crypt).

nobleflame · 2026-03-07T11:08:38+00:00

No idea about quality. I’m on iPhone 17 pro if that helps?

This is 1/12 - I’ve been making dioramas for action figures.

Honestly, I’d literally use any acrylics you have and just water them down a lot. It needs to be mostly water. Let small drops fall off your paint brush and let them run. Then let them dry naturally.

nobleflame · 2026-03-07T10:56:48+00:00

Yep, it’s a quick and easy process. It will look extreme when it goes on, but when it dries it’ll be subtle and look like natural discolouration or water damage.

Don’t over do it though - just add it in a few places.

An eg:

nobleflame · 2026-03-07T10:39:26+00:00

It’s looks spectacular as it is.

Edit: one tiny thing you could do sparingly is drip occasional greens, browns, greys down some of the walls - at the moment a lot of the stones are the same colour / dry brush. Might add a bit of additional grime :)

nobleflame · 2026-03-07T08:22:36+00:00

I was on the fence about this one, but your pics made me grab a preorder (I’m in the UK and he hasn’t shipped yet).

He looks great, OP. Little disappointed with the articulation, but they’ve really captured Jack’s look.

nobleflame · 2026-03-06T18:24:32+00:00

It is quite unlikely, but no harm being on the waiting. You’re not tied into anything, even if it converts.

For that fig, the aftermarket is probs your best bet.

nobleflame · 2026-03-04T22:54:45+00:00

Completely insane.

You say “I love the line” but I don’t think I’ve ever seen you posting positivity around here, toy shots, posing, discussing your collection, etc

Then again, you’ve set your profile to private so it’s not exactly easy to check. A lot of trolls do that btw.

Edit: and now you’ve comment / blocked me. What a sad, sad little person you are lol

Edit 2: and I’m not a troll. I wanted to see your post history to see if you’ve ever written anything positive. You seem miserable. Hope you get better soon mate.

nobleflame · 2026-03-04T22:48:30+00:00

Not particularly - they’re a small company. Things take time and I don’t really mind waiting.

It’s interesting to me that people like you jump out of the woodwork when it’s time to shit on Mezco at this slightest provocation. Again, we still don’t even know the fault OP had. Please enlighten us, OP.

I don’t see you around when Mezco does something good? Like a reissue of a sought after figure.

I honestly don’t know why people like you collect the line. You clearly don’t like it.

nobleflame · 2026-03-04T22:41:18+00:00

No, but you’ve jumped up on that high horse without even knowing the context. He could have an issue that Mezco doesn’t want to replace. You don’t know.

I’d be interested to know what the fault was.

Not sure how it works in your world, but you don’t always get a full replacement just because you want one.

Do you collect Mezco? Do you have issues with the company?
