I have a little rant.

It seems with the high success of Revoltech and Figma there have been about 3-4 other companies and toy lines to pop up with super articulated action figures. This is amazing~! However what is not amazing is the price~! It seems that most of these companies (including Kaiyodo, the makers of Revoltech) are bumping up their prices. About 2 years ago some of the Revol's that were coming out were price pointed at around $25-$30, but ever since Figma started charging around $50-$60 it seems that all the other figure brands (like Figuarts) have decided to take that stance.

My last and final beef with this is the array of selection. It seems that even though we are FINALLY getting some awesome characters in a physical format (Granted there is a ton of selection.) it seems that lines like "Riobot" are doubling up on figure releases such as the JEHUTY and ANUBIS from Zone of Enders even though Kotobukiya is releasing model kits and have already seen a release as a Revoltech. Not even to mention the Queen's Blade Revoltech and their squishy counterpart from FULLPUNI.

I am already seeing a trend with the Nendroid figure too~! Soon we'll be flooded with a ton of selection of the same characters and for a price that frankly I am not willing to pay. :/

(Unless it's Link from Zelda... then yes...)
