Bandai has actually improved over time, their anime faces were shit not that long ago. They're getting really close, and that's good.

at the beginning Figma wasn't good, all the japanese companies has improved every time.

The american companies are the only ones who still sucks.

I've been on /toy/ since the beginning and at the time these were new and state-of-the-art.
It's kinda sad looking at it now.

They were also cheaper. Remember when you got a whole damn figure for $20-30?

What's really a shame is those wrist joints. They were so prone to breaking. I picked up a Haruhi real cheap a few years ago and never swapped her hands...they felt like they were gonna break every time I pulled on them.

It's weird, most of the Love Live SHFs actually look pretty solid in person. Honoka and Hanayo are a bit off-looking, but everyone else is surprisingly impressive. I kinda hope they get around to Sunshine, because I could deal with 8/10 faces rather than 9/10 faces if it means getting stage costumes and not having to pay modern Figma prices.

Don't forget figma still have problems with -painted part -> skin- paint transfers, so add a can of top coat or magic erasers to the price equation too. I mean, both new and old ones.

Sunshine had better anime costumes IMO.
I hope they make the Mijuku Dreamer costumes and figure out a way to make the Terashitai costumes look cool on plastic.

No, just No. The Shf Love Lives are terrible. Pink Honker was floppy and breaky, all the bokura versions were bricks at the torso, and all of them had meh faces.

The figma LLs can be gotten at 3-4k right now which is a pretty worthwhile price over the SHFs (well except Maki and Noz)

Honestly I think Freyja at least looks fine. If only because her face is wibbly in the anime as is.

antiquated asstech aside, they did something real great a good while back

then they dropped the ball hard repeatedly. The Bakuon SHFs especially looked ugly as sin

but hey it's not like they suck 100% of the time. I like to think that the brand's decent girl figures are sculpted from their best team (karate bugmen makers) while the others come from their other shittier divisions and probably interns
