>>10051856>sure are butthurt weeaboosIt's not 2008 anymore, grandpa.
>Really loving the fact you try and criticize Western toys for having cut joints, yet early Revoltechs were even more guilty of having them.Cut joints are fine when they're used right (how Revoltech did). The way ToyBiz used them for waists (and Hasbro MLs still do)...not so much.
>In terms of what?Just look at them dawg. Look at those horrible waists, out-of-place hips (even funnier give that they had normal balljointed hips in the same line) HORRIBLE articulated fingers, etc. And those were the BEST ToyBiz MLs! I bought a cheap Wasp second hand and oof.
> That cartooniness is the anthesisist of what collector toys were/are about...The vast majority of Revoltechs are of cartoony subjects like anime and manga, or in recent years comic books.
> accuracy to subject matter.See above.
>Yeah, it's nice, but it still looks pre-posedI don't think you understand what "pre-posed" means. Ironically the most recent pre-posed figure was that garbage Kickstarter Spawn.
>no matter who poses it.So basically you can't pose or you don't like the poses you can achieve, so you slam the whole line, got it.
>while OP was trying to be objectiveI am OP.
>If he was strictly talking about imports, yeah, Revolechs were the firstSame applies either way. Every single "domestic" collector figure pre-Revoltech, even more poseable ones, look horrendously stiff and can't pose very well.
>That push for super articulated collector quality toys started in the 90s in the west. And it wasn't achieved until the Revoltech line came to be.
>By 2001, companies like McFarlane and Toy Biz basically already had what we still ahve todayYou are insane if you think 2001's obsolete junk holds a candle to even a toy first engineered, what, 12 years ago?
