Been a while since we’ve had a thread, so a few things have come out. I just saw that Present Toys announced they’re doing a 1/6 RE5 Wesker yesterday and teased they’re gonna do a RE5 Chris as well. While the headsculpt could use some work, everything else looks good. The original Hot Toys RE5 Wesker has a better headsculpt but the outfit was pleather and that was so many years ago that I’m sure everyone’s has flaked by now.Anyone see any other announcements lately? Post your RE toys as well.

>>10955839
>>10955842
>>10955844This has been a recurring theme with present toys that their figures look fine with the glasses on, but the sculpt instantly fails without them. This happened with their terminator figures as well.
>>10955849The original Hot Toys RE5 Wesker for comparison.
>>10955859
>>10955838Man why is 1/6 getting all the cool stuff lately?
Should have based it on the movie version
>>10956069deluxe version includes door
>>10955839kinda lame accessories honestly, nothing to simulate his ouroboros? When I think of RE5 wesker I think of him using powers not guns
long shot but I'm holding out for jada to get the license.
>>10956107didn’t the Jada guy say in a livestream once that they tried and gave up? something about Capcom being difficult about that license specifically for some reason
noob question, where do you get news for this stuff? cant find an actual website or a way to sign up for a newsletter
>>10956126Probably the creator didn't want his game to become baby shit for man children. >>10956603eBay, because it's all illegal bootleg shit
>>10955839>That face on the rightTOTAL
>>10956608>Probably the creator didn't want his game to become baby shit for man children.LOL
>>10956629LMAO even
>>10956629>>10956631Yes, he clearly hates collectors and would rather ugly shit get made to deter fans.
>>10956126shit too bad, they would sell out instantly.
>>10956667Thank god they will never get the licence.
>>10955838>>10955839>1/6Damn it, I already have the Hot Toys. I was hoping it would be the HT shrunken down to 1/12.
>>10956668I want an RE figure without having to shell out $300, is that too much to ask?
>>10956852There’s all the third party 1/12 figs that are pretty good and reasonably priced.
>>10955839>1/6Why do these chink bootleggers insist on making figures in this trash ass scale? There was one semi good 1/12 Leon but it was soft goods
>>10957453From what I understand it’s a lot easier for third parties to do soft good figures than fully plastic ones. China has kind of perfected soft goods production and puts out tons of figures and it’s probably easier for them to do a 1/6 figure with larger clothing than a 1/12 one if I had to guess.
new verdugo action figure when
>>10957464show me something you’ve 3d printed anon
Look alright with sunglasses onMaybe I'll get one if under 180$
>>10957665Passed on the Damtoys Ada?
>>10957684Ada DAM's headsculpt is kinda off for me.I prefer a smug look of MTTOYS RE4 one
>>10955839>no missile for him to throw or rocket for him to catchlame
>>10956608>Probably the creator didn't want his game to become baby shit for man children.Shinji Mikami hasn't worked at Capcom since 2006. It's just more so that Capcom making sure that Resident Evil get the top of the line figures as it's the biggest IP they own besides Monster Hunter.
>>10957741>making sure that Resident Evil get the top of the line figuresI mean I wanna believe that’s what it is but considering we get >>10956629 and >>10956631 I don’t know how true it is. Yes they’re not figures, but they’re lame trash merch.
>>10957809Not that anon, but Capcom just seems really out of touch with the merchandising scene. It's really bizarre how we only get high end resin/polystone statues or dorky shit like Funko Pops or Tubbz. DMC was lucky enough to get some figures and even affordable plastic statues.
>>10957885It just depends, street fighter and mega man gets tons of merch, but then resident evil gets practically nothing despite being arguably bigger than both of those.
>>10957665He’s up on most of the usual sites nowhttps://onesixthkit.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=5309&search=SchemerYou were close, but $190. I still feel like it’s fair as long as he turns out like the pics since I’m never gonna display him without the glasses anyways.
>>10957453anything that features real clothing is going to look better at a larger scale.
The funniest part is that Silent Hill had less games and has been dead for quite a while, but still has more merch/toys than Resident Evil does.
>>10958792prove it
there is some anti-otaku RE higher up who does not want action figures
>>10958830not him but he's right , Konami like to keep milking Robbie and Pyramid head and most of them are licensed product.Meanwhile RE has a ton of unlicensed figures ิby some chink and it's keep coming because fuck Hot toys I guess.
>>10959350This your display anon? Actually pretty damn cool. How come you didn’t get the Maria statue to go with James?
>>10959725I think I'm done with GECCO, for nowUnless they reissue or made new Heather
>>10959350What's the other articulated Pyramid Head that isn't the figma?
>>10959967Mezco
>>10959350All these pyramid heads and we still don’t have one based on the movie.
>>10959350Which Pyramid Head is your favorite anon?
>>10960001Probably the Mezco
>>10960001Iconiq seamless body for realismMezco for props and articulation
>>10959350>Meanwhile RE has a ton of unlicensed figures ิby some chink and it's keep coming because fuck Hot toys I guess.Ah, so you was talking specifically about 1/6 stuff
>>10960106Even outside of 1/6, Resident Evil hasn’t received any official figures since RE5 which was all the way back in 2009.
>>10959350How did you get the square thing to stay over the nurse’s mouth?
>>10960200Use some sticky tack bro
>>10959350>>10960200Did you know that square is actually a glitch from emulation and not meant to look that pronounced? That's not how it looks in the game or on a CRT. It's when Konami was shitting out their HD "remaster" ports, where that look caught on. It's suppose to be a bloody mouth.
>>10960470Source?
>>10960646I'll try to find the source. It was from a tweet I saw a long time ago and I am having difficulty finding it. I know in the remake (art), they are putting the square on the face.
looks pretty good desu. capcom had a merch survey a couple months back with questions about figures and statues so maybe official merch is coming soon but its 100% going to be the remake designs and theyve been hit or miss so ill cop this one
>>10963961Yeah I remember taking that survey, an anon posted it in one of the threads. And I agree that unfortunately if we do get anything it’ll probably be remake focused.
Who would be the preferred line for Resident Evil? I would want a line who would be willing to do some of the B.O.Ws in addition to the heroes. Figma would like only do Leon and like Jill. Figuarts has way too much on their plate as is. Jada tried but couldn't get license. I'm not keen on the other western lines.
>>10964815At this point I’m desperate enough for any company to do it, but my two biggest choices would probably be Figuarts or Jada. Maybe even Amazing Yamaguchi for the monsters.
Bump
>>10964815patriot studio already make someof course , it's unlicensed
>>10966484>unlicensedright bootlegs
>>10966486Okay? Call it whatever you want. It’s weird that you think calling it a bootleg upsets me. At the end of the day, they’re damn good toys and that’s all that matters really.
>>10966503>, they’re damn good toysyet faker than a troon speed running a video game kek
>>10966486>>10966510no one gonna buy your overpriced shit from ebay David
>>10966591who the hell is david
>>10955838Did those dr Salvador 1/12 figures ever come out?
>>10955838Bump
bought this today off aliexpress, I’ve always liked this outfit for Chris with how ridiculous it is and it’s really the only cheap 1/6 Chris out there. It was only 70 shipped, but it doesn’t come with a body which they recommend the M33 TBLeague so I’ll have to pick that up as well which is around 80. I couldn’t find any reviews online so I’m gonna wait to see it in person to see if I wanna invest in the body as well.
>>10972425what’s this called on AliExpress?
