If you did enjoy the video, leave a like/comment It took forever to film the intro xD Thanks for watching! I usually call these resin statues instead of figures but this one didn't seem big enough to be called a statue (i got pvc figures bigger than this) so i mainly stuck with the word figure.
idk if the effort is worth it for you but it turned out amazing!!! It'd be awesome to see more of these cinematic intros for these videos that focus on one high quality scale figure videos. Although to be fair not all characters have a cinematic theme like Kafka's that's for sure lmao.
@@baoweexd ive only ever done the cinematic intros for a few figures on the channel, some videos did well like Rem from ReZero or Ninguang from Genshin Impact. While others like Asuna from Blue Archive or Marine from hololive did worse than expected xD, did enjoy making them though!
I don't even want to fantom how long it takes to shoot this kind of intro. I am still going back to your Scáthach bunny video, the intro on that one made me fall in love with the figure 💜
Hi Ken, i'm a figure sculptor working for Prime1 studio.. i'm honestly thankful for your content.. you probably don't realize you help me get the job and upgrade my life accidentally 😂😂. Short story : I was trying to change career from AAA game artist to Figure sculptor (because i'm into anime stuff) but I don't know shit about anime figure (i'm poor ass artist😂😂), so i browse randomly on youtube 2 years ago.. that's how you help me gather reference, how to tell which one are good, bad etc.. And yeah rest is just happened probably because of luck because i don't speak japanese.. and prime1 offer me first! And they speak english!😅😅 and now i can collect figure too!.. Hopefully i can get this Kafka Resin too! Thank you as always!
Thats Sick! I definitely didnt think my videos would ever help someone land a job 🤣 theyve only gotten people to spend money 💀. I dont have any prime 1 statues/Figures since they tend to be kinda pricey LOL may get their upcoming saber tho but still on the fence
Great intro and yeah resin figures are really nice in their own right. I hope to one day have the skill to make my own fan made figure. I also have the Silver Wolf figure with the couch and chibis it's so good if I get the space I will display it.
Yeah goodlord, i like anime figures cause it can say a lot about your likes and interests, but i would never want anything naked in my house/room. Even my own art i only do barbie nude if i gotta. That theatrical figure is fucking ridiculous, imagine if a relative wlaked into your room and saw that for the first time.
@@bigchungbus5756 I don't think figures like the theatrical one are meant for display in quite the same way as others. It's very much a "private art gallery" type of thing.
The plaque is actually for how many units it is in the entire world, you got 249 out of 299 of the kafka's that the studio produced so in a sense its basically a limited figure? Lmfao atleast that's what i remember
Well... I have a Dante figure (resin). One of my fav resin statues I ever have touch on. fun fact: the reason why most resin figures are covered in huge a boxes it's because they are easy to get broken (main reason and probably the only reason i could think of) ALWAYS LATE FOR THE VIDEO BABYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Holy smokes! I legitimately got goosebumps from that intro! You are getting better with each intro, please tell me you are thinking about starting career in movie production or something related to that, I think you have a talent for it. Kafka looks amazing. I have few unlicensed resin figures and looking at her the studio definitely did great job. Especially, the face is spot on which is usually the biggest problem with resins. I myself got Kafka from MiYin Studio and she turned out great too.
Loved your intro and thanks for another fantastic video. And hey, I bought that Imagination Studio 1/6 scale Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae Statue that you show at 2:25. I cannot wait to see it in person!
love the cinematic intro! trying to learn how you do that 😆 Resin statues is another rabbit hole that would be too expensive to jump into, although there are sooo many nice looking ones 😱
I went looking through Hakimi Studio's figures and omg does that Arlecchino look BADASS. However, I recently commissioned somebody to make and paint a Arlecchino render by Neko Figurines sooo (both look so cool). Might as well get both.... bank account gonna hurt.
great video! i won multiple resin statues and it looks really good and especially for all those extra parts the price is about to be expected the only thing that throws me off a little is the base it looks like a block of plastic and not resin to me it is a really good figure thought and i love the pose and the robe that they added very cool
I love resin figures myself. I have a bunch of 1/6 Demon Slayer ones but like the setup to disassemble it and put it back in the box without any of it breaking is like super difficult and if you're the person to move around, the resin figures are almost guaranteed to break between moves to new places and it's like heartache for how much it costs. Hope you never move out
She looks gorgeous! I held off getting hsr resins where I could but I'll def be getting the official ones that are coming. I do, however, have some genshin ones. Hope you're able to get the next characters you are rolling for! I'm saving for Fugue now and hoping they do a 1/8 or 1/7 of her... I got the 1/10 of Tingyun but it's tiny.
Damn. The quality and design are as insane as the pricing. I can't deny that they look awesome, but these figures would be much more accessible if they were in the $100-$200 range.
At least you got Bronya. I always get Yanqing. :/ That Kafka figure is amazing! I would get it if I had the space for it. May get the apex one since its smaller.
Nice figure! I have the Elysia Herscher of Human Ego from on PO from the same company. I just wish they would give an updated release date. since its past 06/2024. Also with the Kafka myethos figure. since it is part of the gift+ line itll be pretty cheap like all other figures in that line, There is a Tingyun 1/10 one coming out in November. Kafka is luckily going to be a 1/8th. Lastly on MFC there is also a March 7th 1/8 gift plus figure in the works the silhouette looks to be her new Imaginary Hunt outfit.
The figure is incredible! Funny how you release this video today, Mihoyo announced another Kafka figure release for next year 😂 It’s her in her concert dress and violin
Amazing figure! And congrats on the sponsored figure. I'm a Kafka fan too and man, I think I'm gonna save up and see if I can get this figure. lol Edit: ahh shit, out of stock xD
it really annoys me off that genshin and star rail are not making (many) official figures the only source of good mihoyo figures is the 3rd party unlicensed resin figures, they ussually go up on pre order within a month of character release while genshin just now announced a character that released 2 years ago. they have lost out on 1.1k from me.
Yeah, i mean i think star rails in a much better position than genshin when it comes to figure releases if you take into the fact that star rails been out of only a year and genshins been out for 4. With ZZZ they already had figures being made when it wasnt even a month old yet, but guess we'll see how the future plays out.
@@KenKen004 yeah you're right star rail has been better, this is mostly towards genshin since they just now after 4 years announced a figure of a character who wasnt around during the games release or beta. hopefully they ramp up somewhat or atleast make figures of the most popular characters. Very good vid as always btw!
@@wrxth1063 Yeah idk whos handling the genshin license but it seems they are extremely picky. Eula had a figure announced a long time ago and theres still no prototype to be shown for it due to the licensor. And thanks!
I at least want to collect 1 Resin scale because their designs are pretty fun! I am just annoyed by how big and fragile they can be! There is Gojo figure wearing a jockstrap, he is 18+, that caught my attention but he is sold out in your link! He probably will be my first 18+ figure too if he was in stock 😂
That must be the grail for Kafka. Such a shame it's out of stock. Buying Apex one won't feel the same now. Might as well skip it and wait for a miracle re-release.
I only considered unoffical resin once, for an assassin outfit Yor. Because there is, for some reason, few figures of that and no real good ones (the best might actually be the PUP as the F:Nex is kinda bad). But the price on those things are kinda painful. I do own two offical resin from Prime 1 though.
Welt, pulled the trigger, alongside two others. Two and half grand down the drain *before* shipping Also need to buy a 500 bucks display case for those, resins must live in cases since they are brittle and can easily break. My wallet!
I hate that you introduced me to these beautiful resin figures. I've only spent a few moments looking at that site and I've already found a few figures I want to buy. I DONT HAVE SPACE FOR THESE
As cool as they are, people have told me the quality between the 3rd party studios can be pretty wide. Apparently on average the final product doesn't turn out like the prototypes. For the price tag id recommend doing some more research on which studios actually deliver quality work xD
maybe splitting hairs, but iirc all unlicensed figures are still bootlegs, but not all bootlegs are counterfeits that try to pass off as the real thing. Not that I really care too much either way, shit looks good.
True, just when people say bootlegs they are referring to counterfeits if not 100% of the time. So i wouldn't use bootleg for this since it seems rude to lump them together lol but yeah
Thank you for the awesome video~ Yet again you killed it with the camera work 🙏 Thank you for all your hard work, Please remember to get some rest m(_ _)m I hope your having a lovely day, Have a wonderful rest of your week, Be safe and Take care out there wherever you are (^=W=^) And you too fellow viewer~
Unlicensed figures have been a thing for years, kind of a grey area technically illegal yes but dont think theyd go after anybody thats trying to imitate their existing figures. Itd be like if HYV came after artists at cons for selling fanart
@@KenKen004 HYV does let people legally sell art and small merch as long as they don’t sell too much. Figures are mentioned as you need permission to sell them. Personally, I’m surprised HYV hasn’t cracked down on this considering the price and the potential loss in profit, but that’s just me. I’m not too knowledgeable about figures, let alone unofficial.
Hey! Glad she had arrived safely. Been waiting for your opening since I saw her box in your previous video. Orz is generally on the more expensive side when it comes to resins, but their customer support is probably the best. Pre-ordering resins will be a lot cheaper than looking for an already released statue. Statues are made in singular sets, usually in the ball park from 100-300 units per version. Some can become very rare to find. Hakimi’s Silver Wolf being one of them, her aftermarket price is very high since well, nobody will sell her. (She was 250-300 on when on PO and you can see what she is now) Im not dunking on Orz, but you can find other trusted agent sellers who can save you quite a few $ if youre planning to get into the resin community.
Im no expert since ive never collected resin figures, but i heard quality spectrum is pretty wide since there can be so many independent studios. Hopefully someone who collects them answers you xD
