>>10052217>The standardBruh, you missed the point. That Green Goblin figure is such a low bar that calling it the "standard" for anything is pathetic. The paint is nice but nothing special, the sculpt is hindered by being pre-digital and the articulation is a joke.
>Name all the super articulated toylines before McFarlane and Toy Biz started doing their pissing game in the 90s and 00sI believe the other guy mentioned a few, but off the top of my head Microman and GI Joe actually had better articulation than a lot of McFarlane and TB figures.
>Who even follow's the Revoltech way of making toys now?I mean Polynians are essentially a refinement of oldschool Revoltechs (having similar roots in GKs even), Revoltech is still going strong, Figma still exists, and hell, companies like Hobby Base make Revoltech-style "sphere joints" for hobbyists to make figures with. Unless you mean "articulation over sculpt" in which case basically every single company worth talking about. Even Todd is learning his lesson there, and his toys are FINALLY worth buying.
>Where's the standard there, when most companies integrate the sculpt with the joints?And most companies aren't even remotely on par with what Revoltech can do. Aside from Bandai but they're industry leaders.
>Nevermind that McFarlane invented the Revoltech jointFucking LMAO. You are insane.
>Microman was kiddy shit.So was ToyBiz. I remember a friend having one of those Spiderman figs on the playground incidentally. Cool for the time, not so much now.
>the poseability, which was GI Joe territory,Looking at this 2006(?) Microman Asuka with borderline modern articulation? I think not.
>pic is what collectors wantedThat looks like total garbage. Holy fuck am I glad we're not in the dark age anymore.
>Revoltechs are now niche Amazing YAmaguchis that few people buy.LMAO, no. There's a reason they have to keep reissuing them.
