ITT: Things that are cursed to never get good figures

If we ever get Chrono Trigger figures it's going to be fucking Play Arts Kai, and I'm sure if we even get that there will be some fucking reason for them to be redesigned by Nomura or something and be nothing like Toriyama's art style

I wonder what the best toy company to do Darkstalkers would be if we lived in a fantasy world where that could happen

Maybe Medicos?

For that matter, who would ideally do Chrono Trigger?

The DBZ figuarts are okay, and getting better, but there's always been something kind of shit about them and sometimes it's hard to pin down exactly what it is. Maybe figma would do the best job? They usually nail anime in general better than Figuarts.

Medicos would be a solid choice from an aesthetic point of view. Accessories would also look nice and would have a bit of innovation in how they're implemented. A Lord Raptor from them would probably be one of the finest toys ever made.

Bandai gets a little too focused on swappable faces and redundant hands which to me are second fiddle to actual real accessory content. They'd be far behind Medicos to me.

Revoltech. Fighting game characters with pretty expressive poses practically beg for it.

Recettear is a nine year old indie doujin game that, to my knowledge, didn't even do particularly well in its home country. Outside of a surprise sequel that also does extremely well, it's never ever for every line.

But holy shit would I fucking adore a Recette figma. She could come with a register stand and a walnut bread.

Not even saying the helmets and armours from those need to be compatible, but come on. I've had a Figuarts wield Pankraz's Sword before, it was a perfect fit.

Head sculpts are pretty bad most of the times, has this weird style to them that does not follow any particular art style. It`s weird because other anime properties and even other DB toy lines seem to do better in general.

Diamond Select is making them. They've confirmed a shared total of something like 22 figures between Kill Bill and Pulp Fiction. As long as their end product is Jay and Silent Bob/Gotham-tier and not Ghostbusters-tier we should have some cool shit.

Yeah, but you haven't watched the others, so you just fell on the "calarts modern cartoons suck XD" meme.
Adventure Time has shit reputation, but up to season 4 it's really good and some episodes like Puhoy are far above most western cartoons.
Over the Garden Wall is just great tasting shit all over your mouth and eyes.

Lobo. Well we did get an excellent one from Mattel but it was SDCC only and you must sell an organ to buy it now so it almost doesn't count. The old DC Direct version was a bit crud, the DCAU character model was crap and made for an awful toy, and no there is no plush toy, you imagined that. Sideshow's upcoming version looks fucking terrible.

Lobo deserves good toys. If that piece of shit Deadpool can get good toys, a better character deserves them.

No one with taste cares about Earthbound. It's only the nostalgia goggles people and the Undertale losers who care. Even Nintendo barely gives a shit.
