>prices going up astronomically compared to other lines
>Medicos doesn't have factory prices locked in so re-releases also more expensive
Anyone else think Medicos dying in a few years is a very real possibility? Killer Queen was originally 3,500 yen (2010) and got a re-release for 4,200 yen (2014) but is now 6,500 yen in 2016. That's a 3,000 yen increase. Meanwhile Legacy of Revoltech has only had increases in the 1,000-1,500 yen range and some of those actually get improved joints in them. Max Factory is re-releasing Saber 2.0 for her original price and Bandai is also doing re-releases for their original prices.

Medicos has basically been increasing in price nearly every single release recently as well. To give you an idea of how grim things are:
January 2014: Bruno Second = 4,200 yen
January 2015: Stone Ocean = 5,000 yen
January 2016: Pucci = 6,000 yen
June 2016: White Snake = 6,800 yen
October 2016: Rohan Ver 3 = 7,800 yen

Within a single year basic figures have went up 1,800 yen with no signs of stopping. Re-releases have been following a similar upward pattern. It's a very real possibility that by the time Gyro, RWBY, Baoh or Drifters get a release date they will be priced at 8,800-9,800 yen which I think will kill the line outright. Anyone else worried about this? I mean they can't even count on extra cash from cheaper re-releases because they can't lock in their factory prices like other companies. They are fucked and by extension we are fucked.

I think there's been a general trend of rising prices for figure releases in Japan this year, but I've definitely noticed it being more severe with Medicos.

As for whether or not they're dying, who knows. I don't know if them suddenly making figures of multiple different IPs (Tokyo Ghoul, Ajin, Parasyte, Drifters) is a last ditch effort to save themselves by trying to cash in on the hype, but it might be the case.

Whatever the case may be, I just hope they can at least last until they finish part 7 (and maybe squeeze in a few more part 8 figures) before biting the dust.

I'm sure Medicos won't pull something that silly but the price will probably be up there by preorder time so everyone is going to feel it.

The day I see a 10k SAS as its preorder price will either be this or they add in some extravagant part. Medicos is pushing a thin line with that reissued KQ1st price tag seeing it's not even the more popular 2nd colorway.

Never. Medicos moves to a new part and the best you can hope for is a new recolor or another Rohan re-sculpt.

If you don't mind the larger scale and higher price tag (I believe it was a WF exclusive) there's the RAH Stone Ocean Jotaro.

As a narrow-minded importer, you and I can't really see how the economy in Japan really is unless you're there or do some research.
Prices for figs have been increasing everywhere, aside from some re-releases, GSC has been upping their prices on everything and usually include less. When Medicos re-releases something, sometimes it's one of the only things to be released in the month. Either something's changing in the production area of figure business, or things are inflating in japan.
Nothing's going anywhere because the dedicated will still stick around to support things. I mean, Di Molto is still around and they're awful.

I'm pretty sure it's the fact that Medicos is a small company.
Bandai and GSC can easily stomach the inflation costs when reissuing a product because they can. Actual manufacturing costs is much cheaper to them than to Medicos.

Not to mention that, with less people buying your product (because of inflation), you're going to have to increase the MSRP more.... which will lead to less people buying your product or just waiting for a sale. Not good for business overall.

I just want Baoh, hurry the fuck up Medicos.

It's kind of funny that Kira is the most stoned face villain SAS for the line. Even the Kosaku head is roughly the same. Though I understand Medicos's idea that Kira is just a plain businessman and the fact he changes looks,he has his emotional moments. Hell, a surprised expression would be a nice change of pace and also for a chance to make this scene happen. As of right now, only the RAH Josuke has a similar face.

You have a poor sense of patience when you can't even wait for the anime to tell you. You are legitimately better off reading the manga and going back to watch the episodes directed by the guy who did the Tonio episode and whatnot. The anime cuts out too much to try to cram the story within the planned episode number.

Honestly, the assortment of faces in the SAS line is one of its weakest points. Nearly everything is "one completely stone-faced head and one yelling head," regardless of the character, and any faces that show any trace of personality are exclusive to WonFes variants. I would buy the hell out of SAS accessory packs that had alternate heads for characters and whatnot.

I can almost see Medicos pulling that for his hat from that moment he had the goggles on but in my eyes they would either pull a Pucci and bring along an accessory that actually was shown in the manga but for one incredibly easy to forget panel or actually stick the actual essentials like both his Steel Balls, maybe a removable belt buckle, Scan/Ball Breaker and even his Teddy Bear. There's a decent amount of small accessories Medicos can fall back on if for some reason they want to avoid going for a full package.

Though if they really want to impress, some effect pieces for Gyro when he throws the steel balls would be really nice like that one Marvel Legend Captain America when he throws his shield.

It wouldn't kill Medicos to make some plastic steel balls and having his holsters with flaps that come out but realistically Gyro 1st will probably be his neutral and yelling face. They can very easily pass his "Go!Go!ZEPPELI" head to be locked behind a WF only release like with Giorno's free flowing hair, Kosaku Kawajiri, Smirking Joseph, and Smiling Josuke because of how scene specific it is for a JJBA figure.

Stone Ocean overall has lead my expectations all over the place with Annasui going beyond what I thought with the fist and kick effects but somehow Jolyne was the letdown with her WF release lacking anything and seeming like a regular release for 4-5k. Steel Ball Run should be a good redemption period since stands are mostly toned down to additional abilities to the user with certain characters gaining full punch ghosts. However with Medicos not ever tackling smaller villains, we could see Steel Ball Run be a bit on the light side but more fleshed out since my personal speculation is

>Johnny
>Gyro
>Hotpants
>Valentine
>D4C
>Diego (whichever version we can't anticipate with either Scary Monsters or "The World")

Though one of my biggest wishes is The World Part VII with new articulation points like Star Platinum Part IV and the new art headsculpt.

Newfag here, I have Jotaro 2nd version and I'm looking for a SP for him. I'm inclined to pick the purple version.

Do you know what's the cheapest and the most expensive of these three?

The World from Part VII is impressive indeed. But I don't know how they would release two Diegos - one from the alternate dimension and the Scary Monsters.

I wish they would release the Go! Go! Zeppeli! smile. It's a core part from this character.

About Tusk, do you think they will do like they did to Koichi - release the Tusk act I with Johnny and then separatelly the Tusk act II, III and IV?

Well, the one on the right is for Part IV Jotaro for one thing, but they're all around the same price I think. The green one is the oldest, but the purple is the same mold.

I think the Part IV one has improved articulation though, so if you don't mind it not being from the correct part, go for him.

Should be SP3rd. He should be within the 3k range from my last searches and also the easiest to obtain. Most expensive would be SPIV but since I ever rarely see SP1st I'm not too sure. I do know SP2nd is the priciest one out of them if you want blue and the ORAORAORA soundplate.

>>5959664
I've speculated this pretty often way back when for Tusk since Tusk Act IV is big and bulky enough to justify a stand alone release with Tusk Act 3 being packaged also. Act 1 can easily fit as a sort of floating figure above Johnny's shooting hand and the Act 2 being packed into its own bag behind the plastic tray or packed on the bottom row if they want to retain the standard box size.

Green is cheapest. the other 2 are close two each other price wise. I recently got the purple and it has the shittiest paint job I've ever seen. I got it cheap 2nd hand on Mandy and either the original owner tried to fix scratches himself or he got fucked at the factory. I regret not shelling out for blue.

I know I'm just being a paranoid idiot and it's probably fine, but I still have my fingers crossed it isn't missing that Giorno head or something for being so cheap.

Kosaku's head got a 4k listing once since the oldest was 10k. Not sure if that's still around.

Other than that you're going to bite the pillow for the figure if you want the head. Giorno's from WFGER is probably the easiest to obtain.

He's got some great accessories, including clackers, the hammer he used vs. Wamuu, and the crossbow (along with alternate pieces for having it regular or with ball and string pulled back).

Probably some of the best hand selections, too, he has balled fists, two straight palms for a Hamon chop, pointing fingers, and flayed out fingers for "can't see me" poses. Removable scarf, Caesar headband alt head, and great articulation. The only downside is that his default has a ton of blue, really.

That's fair. His green WF variant is absolutely superior; and if you can save up to get him I'd recommend it over regular Joseph. Even has a smug face!

Also, there is a blue variant of Giorno coming out at the end of the month that comes with all the same accessories as pink Giorno (with the addition of a Haruno head) if you didn't know about it and prefer the blue coloring. It's a little more expensive than pink Giorno though.

I heard just the neck was redone but the reissues also were given the newer skin paint. The shading was toned down for more lighter tones. I've seen shots of reissue Josuke and Part IV Jotaro where if I put my originals under similar lighting the shading still retains detail and the reissues make the faces look off but under normal lighting it isn't as bad. I believe Medicos made the changeover at either Jolyne's release or Jotaro 3rd.

WF GER has some really great paint, sculpt, and heads. I notice sometimes with SAS figures that there will be very slight paint differences between the promo shots and what's in the box, but everything with WF GER down to the Giorno head looks identical to the promo shots. Really great quality there! I'm stoked to get blue Giorno next moth to try out this sweet head piece.

Depends on what poses I'm using. It's actually easier to have a Stand be more handsy with their user to forego the plastic stand, but if I want crazy leg positions or just to have some extra stability I'll use it.

I wish they made head/accessory packs for characters, I would buy that shit up in a heartbeat. Also, wish we had the colored manga version of Golden Experience, 1st is similar but not really 'gold' enough if that makes sense.

Yeah, that happened with my Killer Queen. The wrist peg was just assembled backwards.
If you wrap the joint in a thin piece of fabric or something, and take some needle-nose pliers, you can pull it out of the hand, and just flip it around. The forearm side of the peg is supposed to have little bumps on it, to keep it from slipping out when you swap hands.
Good luck!

I figured Medicos doesn't focus on scaling equality so much. They must've looked into Part 1 and figured Johnathan and Dio are beasts of men and translated that for the figure. Not to mention how old Part 3 SAS are now so they're just modelling whatever they want to do for a character.

Not that anon, but I have to disagree and say that S&W is pretty well articulated. Yeah it's got some problems with the legs and the shoulder pads can get in the way but other than that it's pretty decently articulated. Yeah it's not as good as some of the other SAS figures but it still moves pretty smoothly.

An added bonus soft and wet has is that it has arm and leg joints in canon, so the actual joints blend perfectly in with the figure and don't hurt the design. It's not nearly as noticeable as it is with other figures.

I still find S&W still limiting due to the whole design but you do need to work around a little to be a little dynamic. If anything I wish Medicos made a few changes to make the arms bend a little more even if it's a sacrifice to the design in some way since double joints just won't look good. Ab crunch is definitely a tricky thing to achieve unless they segment the torso but that fucks with the look also.

He's posable and far from Statue tier but I would love to see Medicos changeup the engineering in their joints at some point in the future. SPIV shoulderpad joints has potential even though I found Figuarts to be surprisingly movable.

Hah, that must be the one I sold to Mandarake this week.

Then again I don't see them putting up any of the other ones I sold them.

JoJo newfag. Just finished part 1. Kind of really want a Johnathan figure despite him being the biggest jabroni I've seen in an anime. I NEED dio, but I already know he comes back and it's a better look

I'm gonna end up wanting everyone in this damn series, aren't I?

I have the WF one, and am basically cutting down on mold doubles and side characters I don't care about. Also got rid of Josuke, Jonathan and Dio because I have their WF alternatives (or the limited Pink one in Josukes case) and Dio black, Weather Report and Crippleneff because I don't really care for them.

Mandarake basically give you approx. 30% of what they intend to sell it for. You lose a bunch of money but it's an easy no strong solution to dumping a whole ton of shit if you can't be fucked to eBay it or whatever. E.g my last trip netted me 60k so you can kinda imagine how much i was offloading. In eight-ish years of collecting I've probably lost maybe $2k in buying and then selling off, but I just put it down to one of life's expenditures.

Uh uh I see, makes sense, most of those WF alternatives are much better than the originals.
On that note, how's Crippleneff? I can't be bothered to get polnareff because he honestly looks like shit and has part 3 manlet issues, but the part 5 one looks really sharp with the pink details on the chest and eyepatch but I'm kinda worried about him not looking as cool in non-canon poses (I.e. not sitting in the chair). Also, can he lift, grab the chair? I'd love to pose him smashing the chair in someone's face.

Wait until you watch/read the whole thing or at least to be halfway through IMO. And always remember that part 3 figures are the oldest ones and thus smaller and not as well made and good looking as figures from other parts. I made the terrible mistake of starting my collection with a part 3 Jotaro and now he's the only one I'd gladly sell to get a part 4 Jotaro.

I lurk /a/ JoJo threads, /r/StardustCrusaders, and the JoJo /toy/ threads, and honestly it's not that b8.

/a/ has lots of stupid memeing (sometimes funny stuff), random arguments, and occasional good discussion.

Here is usually just chill people sharing figures and asking for pose ratings, showing new gets, or posting about deals.

/r/StardustCrusaders can have some shitty fanart and occasional dumb people, but it's honestly way better than /a/ JoJo threads just out of the virtue that their shitposting is retained in one thread instead of interjecting discussions like on /a/. /a/ has better shitposting, but /r/StardustCrusaders have better discussions, desu.

Italy. Luckily here it's not that bad. You don't pay anything if you import from within the EU or if the value is under 25 euros otherwise you just pay the usual tax on products (which is 21% here), however, our postal sistem is particularly thorough when it comes to taxes, which has earned us the privilege of being listed on the JapanPost website as one of the few countries with possible delays. Luckily they're not AS thorough with SAL, so being a tacky salfag works I guess.

We don't, sadly. I mean, we did get translations for each and every part of the series and they still can be bough in comic book stores, but unfortunately its ties with Italy do not make it more popular than it is anywhere else. In fact, while I sometimes find figmas, revos, nendos and such in stores, I've never seen a SAS in a store, or even local online stores.
But I do think that it's really funny that people think Italy is some sort of second homecountry for JoJo, I'd love for it to be so.

Medicos usually moves on after doing a part. They're already in the development stages for Steel Ball Run so if they revisit Stone Ocean then it will be a recolor. Rohan is probably the sole exception.

If you want Emporio then start looking into references to begin a custom project.

I'm too lazy to set up a list on easy to find/common releases so check up on this to see who has recent reissues.

http://myfigurecollection.net/search.php?tags=super_action_statue

The OP has all the info you need for shops that will get you older figures so look there. Reissues have lighter skin tones versus the more shaded originals so don't be surprised when you see some shots. Big rule of thumb is you're possibly fucked on the mass release 2nd and 3rd colorways since Medicos refuses to reissue those but the shops in the OP should guide you on the right areas to look but don't always expect to pay their original price, especially for the Part 4 colorways like Killer Queen 2nd.

I can also give you specifics on certain character releases if you need to know some but I don't own everyone but I'll answer what I can. Especially certain QC issues that specific characters have. Otherwise just be mindful on people dropping spoilers and watch what you can and hope better scans and translations roll for Part 5 after you catch up on Part 4.

I'm pretty much full tinfoil hat at this point about Medicos. The BOJ yield curve isn't helping and their chief is basically like "we have a plan to counter this inflation and it will take effect sometime in 2017". Meanwhile others are saying the Yen could possibly be 100 by 2017 since it's already at 96.

Medicos isn't even really releasing that many new figures anymore. We just recently got a KQ and Kira as well as Jotaro and SP reissue even though we just had reissues of them in 2014 and they didn't sell out until several months after release.

As for new releases we have Rohan and Ken Kaneki. Two new releases in one month after nothing in September on top of a reissue and a recolor (I know Giorno has a new head but its still the same figure). For announced we have Gyro and Baoh who aren't even up for Preorder yet nor have they been colored (to my knowledge). I'm not sure what exactly is going on at Medicos but usually they have months planned in advance for releases and right now in terms of SAS alone we have October and that's it.

Anyone here looking to buy SAS for fair prices? I'm looking to downsize my collection, and I'd rather sell them to cool unfortunate anons who missed out, than get fucked in the ass by ebay.

What I'm selling, all in good condition(besides one, which I will explain) are as follows.

Jolyne 1st, Stone Free 1st, Kira 1st, Diavolo 1st, Josuke (part 4) 2nd, Crazy Diamond 1st, Josuke (part 8), Soft & Wet, Kars, DIO 1st, DIO Black(with muda punching effect), The World 1st, Jotaro (Part 4), Star Platinum (Part 4) but the head is fucked up, will include for free with Jotaro, Rohan (biker outfit)

Email if interested.

Why doesn't diavolo come with an epitaph head with him looking at his bangs flowing forwards, such a wasted opportunity.

Found this version of DIO for relatively cheap, but apparently there are a lot of issues with the hip joints being loose and making him unable to do a lot of poses. Would trying to fix them be worth the effort or should I go for another fig?

Depending on the price I found the punch effects (if they are included) to be worth the price even with a botched Black Dio. Like 2k cheap or roughly $20 less because I got a black Dio from the bad batch who's leg just got super loose and almost snapped but the punch effects are solid.

It's $40 including shipping. It comes with the punches and the seller said the hip joints are loose but didn't say by how much. I think it should be able to stand up, at least.

It's bit of a iffy if you ask me since Black Dio would go as cheap as 2k flat before shipping on Mandy but they price bumped it to 3.5k. However if it's just the legs I could say it's worth it. Fixing those hips may be a different story.

I bought mine just for the punching effects, and his neck joint is extremely loose. It makes posing him kind of a pain, and I feel terrified to try and switch his heads out.

I got tired of using the punching effects, too. They're just such a pain in the ass to get to stay stable and still.

Anyone have a clue where I can find a decently priced Wham fig or am I just fucked since there'll never be a re-release?

your fukked

I got lucky though and got both Wham and ACDC together for like 4.2k with free shipping in Japan on a Yahoo auction so I guess you can try that. Don't count on it though, that was a huge fluke and the YAJ seems to be a lot more competitive for SAS lately.

I'm cool with a pink Gappy. I like it better than the orange one.

Something weird I noticed is a few of the "younger" P5 SAS like Narancia and Trish have fuckhuge heads when compared to everyone else. Other than those, I think they look okay with P4 and P6.
