Kotobukiya and Bandai figures are great, but they're not as common as the Jazwares figures were. I'd like to actually walk into a store and be able to buy figures like I did when I was a kid and not have to import or wait for collector shops and/or ebay. It's impersonal most of the time for me.<br /><br />And to be fair, while a good number of the Jazwares figures were all kinds of wonky, the later X figures with the "real shooting action" really weren't that bad, even compared to the Bandai figures. Stiff, yes, but not as bad as the first run.TTLnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-29012520668051461032011-10-02T09:19:51.436-05:002011-10-02T09:19:51.436-05:00I'll take a large assortment of Retro-roto rob...I'll take a large assortment of Retro-roto robot masters over Bandai X figures and Kotobukiya MM Zero any day.<br /><br />The Japanese may make products superior in quality, but they've never given half a damn about the robot masters. They always choose a small number of random bosses for their lines like the Super Modeling Figures (Airman & Cutman) or MegaHouse's Minis (Elecman, Airman, Snakeman & Skullman).<br /><br />Either way, robot masters are relegated to PVC or smaller. You won't see a Kotobukiya kit for each of the original 6 robot masters... ever! And that's a damn shame! <br /><br />The Japanese have experienced an Asperger's Syndrome epidemic over several generations that makes them obsessed with things that are identical but depicted in various colors, which is why Rockman was so appealing back when he used to change colors based on weapons. Hence the reason Rockman figure lines often include multiple Rockmans but few bosses.ProfessorMegaMannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-79933358617868325972011-10-02T09:17:09.108-05:002011-10-02T09:17:09.108-05:00I can see why they took a while with the JUVIs. th...I can see why they took a while with the JUVIs. they first used JUVI's on Sonic The Hedgehog characters and they ended up looking rather ugly and lopsided due to quality control.:<br />http://www.sonicgear.org/USAPages/USAFigures/JazwaresFigures/KNJuvTurn.jpg (aahh!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-53253846984560090192011-10-02T06:43:51.518-05:002011-10-02T06:43:51.518-05:00Yeah...the Jazwares figures have always looked pre...Yeah...the Jazwares figures have always looked pretty bad with the big baby faces and all. Not only talking about Retros either, X and Zero's faces were awful compared to the Bandai D-Arts which I think are near perfect. Not only that, my Axl's head fell off when I simply picked it up.<br /><br />Jazwares needs to get their quality right on these figures. Only way I would ever buy another.Jeffhttp://megamanx9.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-37199333947240004602011-10-02T02:09:58.104-05:002011-10-02T02:09:58.104-05:00These again...

Jazwares can't compete with them, unless they start dishing out characters that we've all been wanting. Other than that, to me Jazwares are finished. It's funny how they back then proudly stated that they have full rights and everything, but nothing, nothing has come from them. Jazwares should just face it, they suck, just leave it to the true pros, the japanese.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-76772336348875689232011-10-02T00:19:54.523-05:002011-10-02T00:19:54.523-05:00Aw, that sucks.
