Action Figures You'd Like Made
It looks like Konata is pretty happy with her new Ryomou Figma- I wonder if she waited a long time to get one? Speaking of Figma, I expect a lot of fans were very happy to see a Ryomou figma, and a whole bunch of people were happy when Konata was announced, too. We've seen a ton of neat releases of Figma, Revoltech, MMS, and the newer action figure types, and plenty that I was surprised would be made, but turned out really cool all the same (like Makina Hoshimura with gun flash action!).
But even with all of them, I still think about some of the characters I'd like in action figure form. How about you?
Which three characters would you like to see in roughly 1/12 scale action figure form- Mobip, Figma, Revoltech, MMS, or the new Griffon Enterprises Figutto are all great figure types- given a reasonable chance? By that, I mean figures that might sell a fair amount, rather than just a few to the die-hard fans. For me, I can think of the following three characters that I'd like to see in action figure form:
1. Lina Inverse (Slayers)- The firey sorceress strikes me as an ideal action figure candidate. Okay, and I like the character and design a lot. There's a ton of accessories that could come with her- the challenge would be picking just a few! As an action figure, it'd be easier to re-enact plenty of her scenes from the novels, manga, TV series, OVAs and movies. Unfortunately, her more recent anime series haven't done very well, but I still think there are a fair number of people who would like a Lina action figure.
2. Aisaka Taiga (Tora Dora)- Aisaka is a wonderfully energetic character. Fixed pose figures of her are nice, but to really get the emotion of her, an action figure with mulitple expressions is a must. Accessories would at least be a little tiger and her wooden sword. She's also a very popular character, so I'm guessing that I'm not the only one who'd like an action figure of her.
3. Megurine Luka (Vocaloid)- Admittedly, her skirt might be tricky to replicate, but doesn't Miku need another vocaloid friend? Failing that, how about Megpoid?
Now, I have other characters I'd like to see (like Anice Farm), but I know they wouldn't have any chance of being made. The choices I made above have at least a slim one.
Anyways, there are a bunch of dedicated figure fans here and a bunch of very creative folks, too, so I'm interested to hear about what you'd like to see!
I would absolutely love to see a bunch of CLAMP characters turned into action figures. Of note, the entire set of Angels from Angelic Layer would be awesome to have (imagine the matches one could hold in the comfort of your own home!) Even better, the figures would be closer to 1/2 scale rather than smaller, since they're already supposed to be dolls to begin with.
Oh, I vote for Chii as well... I think she'd do well with only one facial expression, completely blank. ^.^
Haha... they could have two identical faces for Chii as a joke.
I think they'd be more like 1/1 scale XD
I want some Minami-ke and Slayers figmas(or revoltech).
I wonder if they'd get along with Busou Shinkis.
And very much yes on Slayers!
Just do the Angelic Layer Angels as 27cm Obitsu BJD's and they'd be 1:1 scale! :)
That would be full of win. Of course, they'd all need to be sold with control mechanisms and a "play at home" layer...
Bunny girl versions of the Haruhi girls in figma form(revoltech only has Haruhi) and a figma of Kyons sister.That would be epic.Or they could do a cosplay version Of Patricia Martin as a figma.
If they did that, they should make Yuki first, because she missed out on her bunnygirl suit when Haruhi first bought them.
Maybe Patricia's head could come as an extra part for another of the main character releases?
I think pattis head will come with summer Kagami since Tsukasa's comes with Hiyori.
I'd like the the main cast of TTGL to become figmas (yeah, the Fräulein Revoltechs got Yoko, but I personally like figmas more). Hmm, and I wish MF would round up the rest of the Vocaloid cast, too.
I also think the Air Gear would do great as articulated figures.
* the Air Gear cast.
Nia would probably make for a big seller Figma-wise. I'd definitely like to see how a Figma Yoko would look, too.
*Kamina* would probably be a big seller in my opinion. :P
I would more than looove to see the Clannad cast made into Figmas.
Maybe the Higurashi and Shigofumi's main charas too.
I wonder if Mobip might be a more likely choice for Clannad, given that they made those Little Busters figures.
Mio, Mio, Mio, Mio, Mio...............
MIIIIIIIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
But we're getting a Mio soon- Mobip style. Is there anyone else who deserves an action figure?
Aisaka Taiga figma is long over due XD
Definitely! Unfortunately we could have a long wait for one.
Argh, I want one to come out so badly!!!
I been wanting a decent Kos-Mos, I prayed for a figma of her. Thankfully Alter answered that plea. Other than that, it falls under "I like this character, I would like a figma of him/her".
For now, complete the Fate/Stay Night cast (Least the Servants. Imagine a Berserker Figma, rawr)
Higurashi/Umineko would also be cool.
For Higurashi, make it the casual wear though.
Casual Cleaver Rena is made out of win and Rika's adorable in anything :3
If they made more F/SN characters, I hope they also consider Archer and Rider.
Not that big in the anime scene but i would wish for some hayate no gotoku! figmas
I'd like to see more figures of the Gurren Lagann MALE characters instead of the females, particularly the different versions of Simon (soushirei, Garlock, prison, etc. <3)
Ranma figures. Especially Ryouga, this guy has never been made in figure but he deserves it!
Toradora characters
Minami-ke characters
and I'm still clueless as to why their was no GTO(onizuka) figma or even a figure made 'o' Imagine his stupid faces xD
I would seriously kill for Higurashi/Umineko to be made into figmas.
I second Umineko !
I mean all those witches are simply amazing character desings, henceforth they deserve a figma.
I would like a Figma of Gintoki Sakata and the rest of the Gintama cast.
Luka is most certainly probably being made figmatized. BRS too I'm going to guess. Thank God. Yes, I'm that confidant.
i would like to see a lot of characters to become a figma. Such as Yuko from xxxHolic, Kos-Mos first and third appearance from Xenosaga, Metis from Persona 3 Fes, Masane from witchblade, Takeru from witchblade: Takeru, the vocaloid crew (including Haku, Neru, and Teto), and so many more.
I would enjoy a Figma of Sabet alter.....or maybe some rozen maiden figmas?
Perhaps if Metal Gears Rex, Ray, and the Gekkos became part of the Robot Damashi line-up.
K-ON! girls (Yui Ritsu Azusa Mio Tsumugi): all kinds from their school uniform to their costumes until the ED
Megurine Luka
the rest of the Lucky Star cast (Akira Minoru and the like)
Yuki (with emotions for the Disappearance)
i thik to be epic wins
Elfen Lied Figmas
Chobits figmas
and HellSing Ultimate figmas
haku yowane ftw!
