Action Figure Medicom - MAFEX Star Wars line coming

[Auel]

Harley from both companies look equally disappointing, and when they say digital painting. They did not mentioned about using the artist's face or expression, only expressions and delicate paint which is unable to produced by tampon printing. (Which I assume all companies still uses this.)

Oh, I see, they are doing digital, nice, maybe..

SHF have been slipping up with theirs recently, I've seen several wonky Harleys and zombie eyed Hans. Let's hope Mafex can stay on top of theirs.

My SHF Harley actually looks closer to the prototype.

Is unfair to use bad pics as example. SHF Harley Quinn's portrait is far better than the MAFEX one, just watch some reviews of both and the debate ends up right now.
You know, when a SHF figure has flaws, go and tell it. When a MAFEX has flaws, go and tell it. Don't have to constantly compare both companies, that's like Sony vs Microsoft, Marvel vs DC, Sega vs Nintendo... I think that's not the way.

Any pics?

 

[Rogerbee]

Yep!



Looks like it to me, though I didn't have several $1000 worth of classy lighting or camera gear....

Mine looks like this as well. She really is an amazing figure in hand.

Oh and Finn.

 

[Kunanuk]

Rey looks quite good...

MAFEX digital printing is getting really good... there is still hope for this line.

Finn doesn't look like the proto pics, but fine enough, I think.

Have a good monday!

The lighting they used is astrocious for Displaying Rey..I'm seeing Her being lighter in person. The article said this is a sample piece.

I think this might be a hit as far as 1/12 Rey is concerned

They said this their second digital print sculpt, what was the other

The other was Harley Quinn.

My problem with Rey is that I don't see Daisy Ridley there, the figure looks like a cross between Natalie Portman and Winona Ryder. You can digitally print as much as you like, but, if the underlying likeness isn't there then it isn't going to help it. The Finn looks better, I do at least see John Boyega there.

I see Daisy Ridley there, but only her facial portrait.

The body is really the bad thing.
She is tinier and has narrower shoulders.

RIP Finns amazing prototype face though

Maybe it's less noticeable in hand, it's still easy to forget that they're 1/12.

I think majority of the misconception here is the term "Digital Printing".



Above is what Bandai's Tamashii Nations is utilising, I still believe that Mafex's digital printing is only for define printing of small details which is un-produceable by tampon printing.

 

[Rogerbee]

I think the term you mean is tampoprinting, LOL! I don't think the other would be entirely practical.

Those are the color cartridges for Tampon Printing:

Oh god, well, I suppose we asked for that!
