Grievous

Anonymous Tue 29 Dec 2015 03:00:03 No.5364757 View View Reply Original Report

I've decided that I'm going to purchase an action figure of this guy, all of them that iv'e seen are incredibly detailed and delicate.

Any advice on which one I should get?

Wait till Bandai releases the S.H. Figuarts, see how that turns out, then make your decision.

Assuming Bandai doesn't fuck up much, your best part will either be the S.H. Figuarts or expensive Hot Toys. Or the LEGO kit if you don't mind inaccuracy; it looks pretty fun to build.

The answer to this question is always "Wait for the Figuarts". You know it in your heart to be true.

Unless you wanna drop the cheddar on Hot Toys, and those are really mandolls, anon.

You should wait for the forthcoming Bandai SH Figuarts version. It'll probably have the best balance of detail, articulation and sturdiness unless Hot Toys ever decide to make one.

The 1/6 Grievous currently available is Sideshow, not Hot Toys. It's allegedly good, but Sideshow have a pretty flaky track record.

Did either of the quoted posts declare a Hot Toys version to be available? Or did they merely imply the quality tiers of Figuarts and Hot Toys being the best choices?
Figuarts Grievous isn't currently available either, anon. You forgot to point that out, you're slipping.

They imply it, you illiterate paranoid fuckwit. Besides which people already get confused by Sideshow being the US Hot Toys distributor and think they're one and the same.

If you want an articulate, extremely large, and solid version of the character and don't care too much about extreme accuracy, you could always get the Lego Ultrabuild set. Only 35 bucks for a figure that's about a foot tall.

Online would be easiest, I guess. Otherwise just look wherever you would normally find Lego sets. The Lego Store, TRU, Target, etc. It's not a limited special release or anything.

I've always thought Kaiyodo would make a superb Grievous. Even moreso, they're the only company that would be absolute madman-tier enough to make it look more like Tartarkovsky's Clone Wars appearance.

GET THIS GET THIS OP. It's a more action-y proportioned Grievous, which might bother those who want movie-accuracy, but I think these stylized proportions are pretty cool. It looks amazing and is HUGE in person, it does the splitting arms gimmick, and it's really fucking poseable. I believe it to be one of the best toys I've bought in all of 2015, and that's coming from a guy who doesn't really like Bionicle-type figures.

Same. A Yamaguchi-styled Grievous would be menacing and super dynamic and absolutely bonkers. I would buy TEN.
