Excellent pictures and info Danny ^^ I like the plastic over the cloth.
Getting almost all of those Figmas (unless they are tie-ins like Figma Cute).
Can't wait to see the painted version of Mirai!

Definitely plastic clothes for all plastic figures. cloth fabrics when cut into that tiny shape/size just doesn't look or feel realistic. only time i think cloth works are big capes on figures like Batman.

All the figmas are nice,but I wish they would've made an Archer.Now THAT would be epic.

Do mine eyes deceive me? or is that figure under Golgo 13 just happen to be one of the Joestars from Jojo's bizarre adventure?? Taking a guess (since I'm not that familiar with any part before #3) I think that would be Joseph Joestar!!!
And as for if you should watch phantom danny, just ask youself this: have you seen and enjoyed any of these shows Noir/madlax/El Cazador de la Bruja? If the answer is yes, then Phantom should be good for you (incidentally, it's based off an eroge from nitro+)
Student (Games Design)
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's Joseph Joestar myself. Johnathon and Joseph look very alike, but the outfit suggests it's Joseph.
...and I haven't any of those other shows, but I've been enjoying Phantom. If anyone hasn't been watching it, it's definitely worth checking out I reckon.
Student (Games Design)
(correction) seen any of those*
yup i'm pretty sure it's Joseph too, though i would prefer that they made a Jotaro and dio figma or a zeppeli figma.

Do want Baron Zeppeli figure though
special note i like the paint job for Joseph it match with the Baroque art style of Araki Hirohiko.
which is some thing near impossible to be done with cloth
Pre-University College Student
I agree Requiem for the Phantom is awesome. Correction: Phantom the game is NOT eroge i.e. there's no adult content. Just a normal visual novel.

Wow! A lot of cool accessories for figma this round~~~~~
Ryogi figma! WANT! Would like to try out the fiber clothes version~~~
SABER!!!! Finally a Shirou figma~~~
Those figma of Se Kirara characters are lovely!
Macho Billy!
Cast-offable figma, drools~~~~~~ ^o^
Aegis-chan figma is lurve~~~~~
Nice di:stage backgrounds for figma scale (Gundam 1/144)~~~
Looking forward to TFS coverage ^_^

great coverage Danny
Those vespers and bikes are really cute... and do I see Miku in rollerblades? Len with skateboard and Rin with a scooter?
The cloth on Ryogi isn't that bad.. Her joint movements would be too restricted by plastic clothes though.
All those Kirara figmas are so cute, same with the Hiiragi twins.

Figma have awesome characters, now even with the enviroment set and the accessories. It will be so cool to own a set of the figma ex:ride (of cos, with the characters that you like ;D)
Student
http://foxkey.blog126.fc2.com/
Wahaha~ So many nice looking figma that are being released. I'm taking a liking towards the Canaan one. The Di:Stage is looking very appealing, I might have to get one myself, i've got quite a few figma to put on display. I love the armour design on the Original QB character, the shift body sounds interesting.
The girls from Se Kirara look sooo cute, i'll have to pick up this VN/eroge when it comes out.
Such a rush to get into a line, i've seen other of Danny's videos of people rushing into a convention centre, it shows how big of a fan they are. I guess I'll have to be mentally and physically prepared before I tackle one of these.
Also Phantom Requiem is a must watch. I'm enjoying it very much to the point where it got me playing the VN. <3 Ein/Elen

I'm actually reconsidering getting a scooter for my figma... I thought it was nifty because it reminded me of Gintama but it seems to have lost that feeling... Interesting to see how they are slightly changing the figma chests to allow the arms to bend in for better positioning of the arms for holding guns. I'd love to see a Ryougi Shiki figma but I'm not sure cloth is really the right material... or at least what I see right now isn't what I desire the final product to look like. I also prefer her usual getup with her blue yukata, red leather jacket and boots. Thats just how I am... ^^;

Phantom of Inferno was my second visual novel that I played and probably my favorite. The anime (from what little bit I saw) followed the game rather well. Can't speak past the first couple of episodes though, but recommended from what I saw.
For cloth or plastic clothes. For figmas, really I can only see them with plastic clothes. Maybe the only exception being if a character is wearing a cape/cloak or something. Then it might be appropriate.
For the new figmas, based on what I saw in an alternate figma thread, Loli Nanoha/Fate are must gets, and KOS-MOS and Ein are worth a look. Of course, I'll get a Mirai figma when she comes out though. ^^

The bicycles and scooters of image 27420, 27421 and 27422 are so cute. That is such a good idea, I would totally go for the bigger house option to have them. Figma's design of their joints gives me the feeling of modern day Pinocchio.
Student, Uncle & hopfully a good husband..
Wow...the amount of figmas this time around is huge!!!...

I'm digging that Nurse witch Komugi-esque figma.
But for cloth, I'm sure it would make it a WORLD more easier to pose them sitting down, but I would need to see the prototype before even saying anything :p
Student
they all looks great.. well most of them if you know what i mean XD
Love the figma bicycles ^^ The Fate 2009 movie version looks very nice, also Saber in her plain clothes and Shirou Emiya, Lucky Star in Summer ver. looks great to! Lots of nice figures I want them all!! >< (figmas are gonna burn my wallet! - I need to get money ^^) Can't wait for their release dates...
BTW "Either GSC/MAX need to stop making cool stuff or I need a bigger house to display them." - Definitely you need a bigger house Danny, and I hope GSC/MAX Factory are will be making cool stuff forever!! ^^

Mirai is a must for us Danny's followers and it's gonna look nice.
Plastic clothes looks better in my opinion.
_
Plastic or cloth? I prefer plastic, because cloth is more fragile and limits the way of articulations. Figmas are toys, not dolls. But in some case, like Ryogi, the legs and waist are completely wrapped in and I think it's really difficult to had articulations here without altering the look. Cloth material may be usuful in such situations, but need to stretch a lot.
I'm sure the folks at Max Factory will make the good choice.
Student, ACG Fans
http://modvisc.blogspot.com
wow, a lot of nice Figma, Nanoha, Fate, Saber, Shiki, really need to get them all.
Cloth or plastic? If for Shiki, i think cloth is quite ok especially in her Kimono.
and also, can't wait to see painted Mirai.

Aw, crap. Looks like I'm going to have to break my one-figure-per-character rule again - for Nanoha AGAIN, no less! >< It's a loli-version of her - and I want that far more than the Wolkenritter. Haven't seen the 2009 movie (is it even out?) but Raising Heart looks...quite different. Gone is the solid gold and exchanged for blue and white. I think I like it.
A lot of other amazing figma as well, but I'm going to pass. Planning to get Mirai, and *maybe* Shiki - was very tempted to get the scale figure awhile back anyway. Cloth looks nice, but I'd prefer plastic.
By the way - Saber's getting a third rendition? Interesting, that - it's her casual dress. I'm rather confused as to why Shiro's getting a figma when Archer isn't, though.
Pseudo-Graphic Designer, 触手 wrangler, H-Man
http://lightningsabre.blogspot.com/
Now we just need Saber Alter and the Saber quartet is complete! I guess Shiro does work well with Saber getting another rendition. Hoping for Rider and Archer next. And Billy Herrington is a prototype for a Berserker figma XD
university film student | ecchikid | the Archivist
http://www.vimeo.com/longhim
XD Imagine summoning a servant and getting Billy...
Not sure about Rider, to tell the truth. It might be difficult for them to make a Rider that could be as flexible as she is supposed to be.

Time to revolutionize the way a figma move :) Just gotta make her dress shorter than the anime version to maximize movability :P

Any shorter and you're approaching bikini territory... ^^;

Dico Kick? A new company?
Do you know if those figma bikes and accessories will be available for purchase? Or will they be like the previous freebie if you buy a figma? Ooh I'd love to have a cloth for figma instead. It's hard to move some of their joints when the hard plastic clothing gets in the way *cough*SaberLily*cough*.
EH WHAT? What's that Kanamemo sign for?? I've been watching it and posting screenshots of it on me blog, but this is the first I heard of Kanamemo figures in the works. If they're figmas then I can make sure to make a lotta yuri scenes with them XD
CEO MIrai Inc

Dico Kick is the jewelry/accessory division of GSC.
???Confused???
Looks very awesome...and Mikuru on the scooter might get in an accident with her eyes closed...
So the figma no.45, 46, 47, 48 can be any of the above that will see a soon to be release.
I guess to make the kimono in flexible plastic would really be challenging but difficult to pose the lower body and may be paint transfer. Challenging to make cloth clothes too at figma scale not to mention the kimono has to wrap nicely on the Ryogi figma.
Think the Ryogi figma will be the most expensive to date and a long production run.
Needs more work on the kimono centre piece...don't know what it is called but not flat like that and the print on the cloth can be better.
C.E. Student
Nice pictures. I cannot wait to see the new figurines coming soon.

Actually I can NOT see all the figures coming soon... because it'S too damn noch money.
Would wait until late 2010 to spread out the spending more ^_^ !!

Who is the Mistery Character..?
Student
http://gooddayforlemontea.blogspot.com/
that character danny didnt recognize seems to be Kenshiro from Hokuto no Ken
nope Kenshiro normally wares open chest vest and there will be shoulder padding, that's the younger version of Joseph Joestar which can be seen in the second story arc in the JoJo Bizarre Adventure's series.
though oddly i thought they would have gone with the more popular characters of the third story arc since they can milk more money off them with characters + stand figures not to mention the third part of the series is one of my favorite :p
student- university servant
ryogi with cloth seems interesting- that way it is easier to undress *wink-wink*
So far there's the Revoltech Airi, with all the semi-cast-off you want.
Let's hope it's not THAT bad with ryogi :D

Phantom isn't the most unique show out there right now, but it's a potential watch if you can be patient with it. I personally find it a bit slow (It's really not as action-packed as the trailer may suggest), but there's enough character development for me to stick around for.
Also, terrific soundtrack. :)

Canaan was probably the only anime I was really looking forward to this season. Maybe Spice and Wolf 2, but that's really about it. I have yet to test the other ones though. I also really like those scooters although they should have a yellow one like from FLCL.
Customer Service
http://www.shewsbury.com
Those "figma ex:ride" bicycles and scooter is another MUST get for me.
For "outdoor activities" I prefer the Figma as it is now in plastic clothes but I also don't mind to have 1 or with cloth material but this is only for the display in my cabinet.
Figma Kagami and Tsukasa in Summer Uniform is also a MUST get for me... I wonder when can we start reserve this item? I hope Max Factory will also give different accessories from previous Winter Uniform.
Figma Shirou Emiya (finally) and Figma Saber plain cloth... another 2 Figma that I want from many shown above...
Figma Ryogi? I would love to get her in both plastic clothes or cloth material.
As for other Figma above, maybe I will consider Izumi Shizuno and Yu Kawamura.
Great job GSC/Max Factory... if they keep continuing producing good stuff I might give up GunPla and focus on Figma only...
By the way Danny, when they finally released the Figma Mirai... can we the members of DC community get some special discount when buying in the selected online shop choosen by you? hahahaha.... just a crazy idea though... I guess not...

Great figures, good coverage. Love the Kagami figure.

Aigis was indeed made to be a figma. She'll probably be the first and only figma I buy.

Wonder hows that Phantom anime.
Pretty much liked the girls-with-guns animes.
Noir, Madlax and El Cazador were pretty enjoyable to me.
The summer uniform wasn't resulpted for different characters?
The skirts flow in the same pattern for both Kagami and Tsukasa.
The SOS girls all have different sculpts for their skirts.
The se Kirara girls are nicely sculpted, high quality stuff from figma as usual.
Wants a "figma ex:kill" weapons set :P
Will wait patiently for Mirai.

For figmas, due to their scale, plastic is better. But the cloth yukata works for Figmas (I recall Konami's Busou Shinki had cloth yukata on sale last year?), because of the way they look--very loose. I suppose it really depends on what kind of clothing you're making for the figma.
Danny, will the Mirai figma be available overseas? :(

Maybe plastic makes for easier keeping, but I think that can be done with cloth as well.
Must be relaxing to just stroll around, taking a well-measured photo of the figures LOL.

Uaaaaa, Nanoha and Fate showed out!!
Would they be produced later?
If it's true, I'm going to get one.

the new figmas are looking nice! ^^
are the ex:ride accessories going to be normal releases, or some sort of exclusive?
Plastic would probably be better for the figmas, it wouldn't restrict articulation as much as cloth, though cloth has the advantage of hiding joints. Like others have said, cloth would be better for cloaks/capes/large coats/skirts

You should of added a both option for the poll. Plasitc is good for most of the figma's, but I think something like Ryogi's Kimono would be much better as cloth than plastic. And I really want to get some of those bikes and scooters.

Figma Shiki looks lovely, even if she's just a reference model. She's a definite get for me, along with Canaan and Ein. The bikes etc. are tempting as well.
I like Figmas with plastic clothing, but cloth would be nice sometimes as well, and I can imagine it being better for articulation with something like a kimono or a long coat.

Wow! So many figma releases!
I voted plastic as I prefer the bold/dynamic look rather than clothed versions.

Wonderful coverage Danny! A lof of the figures looked so tempting. Can't wait to hear more about the Mirai Figma.

Well both are ok,but it really depends on what it wears,If there are hard part like armors it should be plastic.But then again it really depends.

I'd like the option of both cloth and plastic. Different versions of course. Or at least a blank skin toned body that we can switch heads to.

Phantom is highly recommended! I have met it since its release on PS2 years ago.
The OVA version is doubtlessly good, and TV version have re-designed costume to make the characters much "modern" and moe.
Student
Nice pictures, looks like a nice event. I highly recommend Phantom. It has a very interesting story with a nice plot twist to keep you hooked.

I have a question Danny.
How can I get a WonFes Shirt? Is it at all possible?
They look sooo AWESOME!
Multimedia Arts Student
That's plenty figma and thanks Danny
student
Great stuff, but i would like it if the figma line or actsta line starts doing some video game characters too. some street fighter zero or alpha characters for example, fire emblem figures, zelda or maybe a figure of Reiji Arisu and Xiaomu from the games Namco X Capcom and SRW OG Mugen no frontier. would be great addition with the upcoming actsta KOS MOS. sigh.. one can always dream...

I think I wanna get those bikes too. Wonder how much the whole set will be...
Watching Kanamemo now. Decent slice-of-life comedy, not too great but fun to watch.

Not much of a figma/poseable figure fan as I prefer statues over them now. But ryogi shiki figma does catch my attentions.

I like the queens blade figure. Glad to see we finally have Emiya, and also we have a reason for Saber to be called Saber Armour Version, instead of just "Saber". Yay for umbrella/bamboo pole/newspaper/sushi mat thing!
No, The Vocaloids aren't wearing any protective gear! They're gonna crash and brake! Ahh!
My only problem is that a few of the faces look...odd. Mainly, the smiling figures-
Saber
Kagami
sadly the queens blade figure would be a LE that would be ship with the ds game if my memory serve my right.

I don't know what planet all you are from, but Figma + Cloth = AWESOME WIN.
This brings Figma into my realm: the dollfie zone. I not only have my Yumi-tan (see avatar) but I also have lots and lots of happy shiny 1/6 scale dolls as well...Volks Dollfie Plus, Obitsu, and even stuff made by that little ole toy company from El Segundo, CA. I am guessing Figmas are about Mini BJD size. I usually like to stick to a particular scale to avoid Scale-Fail but I could go for a few chibi-chibis in my collection.
Anyone who loves Dollfies would love Figmas with real removable/replaceable/swappable clothes. Do it! For great justice!

hmm, well im stuck in the middle, i think figma might go well with cloth since it'd be able to hide all the joints, which may appeal to some, but plastic seems to fit the figure more appropriately xD
well seems like both boat floats for me ;P muahaha

Just by looking at those dashing figures makes me want to have one... or two... or ... more.

Wow. Total overkill on the Figma releases. I'd be so tempted to get them all if not for the fact that I barely know most of them. Absolutely good-looking figs though. For now, I'll stick to Revoltechs.
