    Kaiyodo has made huge, HUGE strides forward in their figures.
    At this point they’re probably one of the best. Their proportions and the gapiness has gotten so much better over the years that their figures are just looking better and better with every release. The recent Spider-man is a testament to that. I can understand your feelings since all the ones you own are much, much older figures but if you were to get into and buy one of their newer figures I think you’d be decently surprised with how far they’ve come.

    Never have an issue with this line, one.. I always leave my figure in a super dynamic pose (cause why the hell i buy this much if i can't pose it), two... Yes this figure is durable as a rock, my gwen, psylocke and deadpool (2.0) fell off 200 cm with no damage (accident btw).
    I love this line since it can capture my imagination when i'm posing it instantly, my eyes and soul irritate whenever a figure is at a museum pose... No matter the scale (yes even my 1/4 scale spideys and deadpool i display it in a highly dynamic pose)

    Pretty much why i regretted getting their spidey and deadpool. I was super glad i managed to sell them.
    When i got their deathstroke, i did a comparison to deadpool 1 and suffice to say, their deadpool 1 looks like a bad bootleg.
    My venom was able to stand without issue. What i hated is they released a black version after i got the purple one.
    Psylocke was ok but very anime and very very tiny.
    Deathstroke was probably the base 2.0 for the spidey and deadpool 2.
    Carnage was great. It encapsulated carnage. Especially the transparent one.
    Captain america was ok too. But the mafex one is probably better.
    Overall, I honestly wouldn’t wanna go for another yamaguchi ever again.

    I understand anyone's gripes about amazing Yamaguchi figures and revoltech in general. I see why some people don't like them. I personally own around 22 or 23 Yamaguchi figures with a few pre orders on the way, so I am very familiar with their figures.
    I must say to get them in what you call a "museum" pose or static pose, I call "boring" pose, it does take some work. I can get them in those poses and make it look good. It just takes a little. Honestly I don't know why anyone would spend that kind of money on it, if all you want to do is put it in a boring "museum" pose. If that's the case you're better off getting cheaper ones like Legends or goofy mcfarlane's.
    Also, it's a little different for me. I can pose figures pretty well. I'm an artist. I have skills in 2d drawing, and c.g.i. modeling. Animation, poses, and form I understand so it helps when posing figures.
    Oh yeah, the ones you said you started with really are their lesser figures. ESPECIALLY that venom. I have that one too and what a disappointment that was. Good god what a disappointment! But it still looks cool on my shelf. All about that posing.

      Agreed, he basically stopped collecting them at around the point they started really improving, and with a handful of exceptions, they've just gotten better and better with each release. I own all the Marvel and DC figures of the line, plus the Optimus Prime and All Might, and it's my favorite line of action figures by far.

      @lamonteriste3344 Рік тому +1

      @ZedEcks oh really you have them all? That's cool. You wouldn't happen to have that Ultron would you? I started collecting Yamaguchi long after that came out. If I want it I have to go 3rd party which is around 200. Because it's older and Yamaguchi can be hit or miss, I'm extremely hesitant on dropping 200 for a Yamaguchi Ultron.

    • @ZedEcks
      @ZedEcks Рік тому

      @lamonteriste3344 Unfortunately not, I just have the Amazing Yamaguchi line specifically (I should have specified), which Ultron is not included in, though sadly WB and/or DC have put restrictions on the release on the DC figures, so they're not available for shipping to the EU straight from Japan or the rest of Asia, only from the US, at a significantly hiked up price, so my perfect attendance will likely end with the upcoming Catwoman figure.

    Wolverine is probably the most recent figure in that line-up and considering I've never seen many people have any issue with him, I think you're judging the line on where and how it started rather than where it currently is. I agree: AY Venom isn't very good. Ended up selling mine off a long time ago due to the lack of design foresight. I also agree that the earlier AY releases were more made for dynamic posing than vanilla posing, since you'd have so many obvious gaps around joints or they'd just be impossible to get in any pose that looked stock still and neutral.
    AY releases now can pull both off. 2.0 Deadpool. Iron Man. War Machine. Joker. Harley Quinn. Batman. Superman. Carnage. Any of the My Hero Academia releases. They look great standing still or posed in very fluid or complex positions. The design and approach to this line has improved by leaps over the last few years, you can't ignore that and act as if it's still functioning off its 1.0 design philosophies.

    I only have Gwen, Gambit, and Psylocke. I love Gwen, especially with the Manipple (?) head…which I believe is what first led me to your channel. For me, Yamaguichi is a fun change of pace, but only when they make a character I truly love. They seem very stylized to me, with more of an anime feel, which sets them apart from the other lines I collect. Also, if I want a figure on my desk to fidget with while I’m working, Yamaguichi can’t be beat. They’re very fun to handle.

    I'm on the fence with the new Revoltech figures. The only one I have is an old Eva (those that made clicking sounds lol) and that one has gotten a fair amount of rough love, yet still remains in good condition.
    But upon seeing reviews of, for example, the Yamaguchi Iron Spider I noticed that certain parts can be loose like the legs and pins, not to mention that the current figures have a single balljoint as a knee articulation, and I fear it might snap after certain movements.

The Venom tho... 😢 I like how he looks a lot, but yeah he's very top heavy so he flops a lot. His shoulders don't seem to go up either, so his arm falls off a lot. I can't really figure out the elbows either. I got overwhelmed. Lol, I put them back in the box. You have to dedicate your time and full attention to posing one right.

    They're great, if you're a masochist (or Japanese)... Back when they first started, their figures were simpler in design, so the "Revoltech" joints weren't such a pain. With Amazing Yamaguchi they've stuffed their annoying joint system into much more complicated action figures and make YOU do all the work, instead of proper joint design - like every other manufacturer worth their salt.
    I've never really liked their shoddy little joint system, but it's amazing how far they've managed to take it. Their Evangelion Natayanagi is a gorgeous design that I bought, but only because it appears nobody else will make one.

    Have not purchased any AY figs but some of their recent releases like Superman & Black Panther look pretty good imo. I also like the OG Batman figure with the controversial plastic cape as the cape makes for a very unique look when it's fully spread out w/arms out in flying/landing pose imo. Was considering picking up a few figs in their DC line but the Wonder Woman fig. was a major disappointment as her height scale was way off (too short) from Bats & Supes imo so decided to pass. Thanks for the post as always interesting!

    The only thing I like about this Venom is the face sculpt and tongue. After having him for about half a year, I sell him off. He is super difficult to display with how top-heavy he is. The support for his back isn't too helpful either. And the joints are so difficult to dealt with. They aren't like SHF or ML, you have to click or adjust the ball joints to the angles you want to have them posed instead of just bending them around like normal action figs. He is my first and last. After him, I didn't get AY figs anymore lol. But yeah AY they can do the most cringiest dynamic poses in the world.

    I was so looking forward to, but eventually disappointed in my Revo Cable. The thighs are useless; too wide apart to stand straight, loose, fall off and rub together at the top and cause paint rub when you swivel them. My Arkham Knight looks cool, but after I swapped the parts once they became loose. I much prefer my Revo Iron Man and War Machine. Probably because of their armour they work better. I will use my Revo X-Force Deadpool's weapons with my pre-ordered Mafex Deadpool.

    Quick summary for everyone thats gonna watch. 1st reason he doesn’t buy more Amazing Yamaguchi is because he doesn’t know how to pose them. Number 2 is because he didn’t like 1 figure of all the line (Venom, btw its actually really good he just got a bad one in my opinion) so he just automatically gave up on all the line and is not interested in any recent release. And there you go I summarized a whole 6:49s video for you 👍
