I *seriously* need that mewtwo!
Mew looks quite undersized, though. Mew's around a simular size as Pikachu, and that would make Mewtwo (Who's around the size of a fully grown man) in this display a behemoth.

Can't wait to find out more! I really hope we get those aura effect parts. I've gotta be selective about the pokemon I buy. This is ganna be a real slippery slope. 649 potential figures...

lol yeah 650 is a lot of figures. But they do have quiet the selection at their disposal. It would be really easy for them to get people hooked on this line...

I think they'll only pick the absolute most popular pokemon, same as they did for Digimon (Which has over a thousand, and they only did four, Ignoring others of the absolute most popular, like Renamon, Gallantmon, Guilmon, Agumon, Angiwomon).
Given their first three are Charizard, Mew, and Mewtwo, which are like, three of the top four pokemon people always mention, this seems to be the same direction. Mewtwo is after all to Pokemon what WarGreymon is to Digimon. That said, I would expect Pikachu (I will be extremely pleased if the line finishes without a Pikachu. Not out of any malice towards Pikachu, but because that's always the go-to for pokemon), Snorlax, and Lugia to be high on their agenda. Would be awesome if they tried to keep a sense of scale, and with small pokemon, release in a multipack with all it's evolutions, like a Pichu, Pikachu, Raichu threepack, and two Eeveelution multipacks (Eevee, Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon, and Espeon, Umbreon, Glaceon, and Leafeon). Maybe a legendary multipack with Celebi, Victini, and Jirachi. Would also love to see Gyarados. And what would absolutely floor me with this line, is if they do human figures... only instead of focusing on animu, they go with the trainers from the games. (Maybe make them smaller than the usualy D-Arts figures, and release them as twopacks, Male and Female trainers from each region)

Will be picking up Charizard and Mewtwo for sure, but I'd rather see more Digimon.

I guess you guys missed that the next two were already announced and on display there as well (but listed as not to be photographed). Those are, rather predictably, Blastoise and Venusaur.
"I think they'll only pick the absolute most popular pokemon, same as they did for Digimon (Which has over a thousand, and they only did four, Ignoring others of the absolute most popular, like Renamon, Gallantmon, Guilmon, Agumon, Angiwomon). Given their first three are Charizard, Mew, and Mewtwo, which are like, three of the top four pokemon people always mention, this seems to be the same direction. Mewtwo is after all to Pokemon what WarGreymon is to Digimon." Actually, Charizard would be Pokemon's WarGreymon. Plus Pokemon isn't Digimon. That's probably why they're going with Blastoise and Venusaur by picking two Pokemon more iconic to the games than they are iconic to the anime. |

I wouldn't be surprised to at least see Ash and Misty in the D-Arts line. Be nice to have a Pokeball attachment for the Tamashii ACT stands.

I disagree. I'm not talking about literal interpritations. But more in toys and recognizability. WarGreymon is the go-to for toys for Digimon. Mewtwo is the same for Pokemon. I'd venture to say that Charizard is more akin to Agumon.

Like I said in my earlier post, they've got three of the top four best known pokemon. Charizard, Mew, and Mewtwo. Leaving out *only* Pikachu. Nothing else, even Venasaur or Blastoise comes close to them.

Is it my imagination, or do their mouths look hinged?
