So, since the Figuarts Goku (black hair) is the first action figure I've bought since I was 15 (I just randomly saw him in a Hastings and was like "OMG COOL!!!" and, now I have a new hobby  ), I'm interested in posing these guys with other characters from Marvel or DC, and I'd like them to make sense size-wise, know what I mean? Can anyone reccomend a Superman, Batman, Captain America, Hulk, etc that would make sense being posed in a fighting scene with Goku and Piccolo, and I'd like same quality and posing options that S.H. has. |

Figma? I'll google that now. I've heard of Revolttech, they have a nice looking Iron Man... and that whole Creepy Woody thing is also from them. Edit: Oh, cool! I like the Figma female characters on their main site. I don't recognize the anime but they look very well done. WAIT... HOLD UP..  HOLY CRAP YES THAT'S SO FRIGGIN' AWESOME!! |

LoL, Yeah. There actually ton of 1/12 characters lines from Figuarts\figma\Mafex. Figuarts have an Iron Man lineup, and figma have a Marvel linpup. Mafex and Figuarts have DC characters. Revoltech are morelike 5-5.5" scaled figures. Gsc make pretty much anything in their figma line.

Unfortunately most Marvel Legends and DCU figures tower over the DBZ Figuarts releases. Bandai did make a few Figuarts Iron Man figures (Mark 6 Iron Man, War Machine, a black and gold variant of Mark 6, Mark 42 Iron Man & Iron Patriot) and Figma is currently releasing a few Avengers figures (Thor, Captain America, Mark 7 Iron Man and a "Full Spec" version of Iron Man but that version may be difficult to get). I highly recommend those but I'm not sure how good they look next to DBZ Figuarts figures and they're awfully expensive. $8O from release...but then again the prices on each of them will undoubtedly rise.  You may notice Play Arts Kai versions of some super heroes, I don't really recommend those as they are usually around 7-8 inches and would really stand out next to Figuarts figures. |

DC Universe Classics and Marvel Legends would be the closest scale, but they're a bit taller. Figma, Revoltech, and Mafex all have movie versions of comic characters that would be in the same scale.

I wish we would see a figma Wolverine\Venom\Dead pool from Gsc in the 2015 Marvel realeses. Their Spider Man is also great. From your list, there is a Mafex\Figuarts of Batman&Joker, Naruto, Sasuke,Luffy from Figuarts. 1/12 scale high-end lines out there that are in that 3000-5500 Yen price range are the various Figuarts, figma, Mafex, Super Alloy(Which is high priced, about double than the Figuarts releases), and Revoltech which are about the same 1/12 scale.
Don't even bother with Play arts since unfortunately those are like 1/8, 9-10" figuers and they are way taller.

We've already got an SHF Batman and Sasuke on the way, Luffy has been out forever, Naruto just got released, and Iron Man has already had three different figures in the line.This list is very random. You've got Apocalypse, Zod, Killer Croc and Lobo, but no Wonder Woman, Flash, or any a-list villains besides Joker and Loki...

Batman and Joker from Injustice, which leads me to believe they'll eventually make all the fighters from that video game. Can't wait for Superman and Harley Quinn if they do that. Sooo... what about Star Wars to scale? I want to pose Vegeta with Darth Vader. |

I just wanted to give a general idea and not name, like, every single character I could think of. I'm a geek, of course I'd love a Wonder Woman or Flash figure. |

And upcoming Mafex and Figuarts releases of Stormtroopers and Darth Vader. |

A figuarts Darth Vader? I'd pay good money for that.
Also, I love how Creepy Woody is actually winning this little poll.
