It's 160mm which I don't mind since it's not going to be even close to 1/12 scale either way. It will display nicely with my MonsterArts.

If it were 30cm, it would be even cooler IMO.
Sculpt-wise, the only downside I can see is the strange waist portion. Looks more like large underpants.

If this was a 30cm high-end articulated figure like this, it would cost well over 300$.

I did think he was 30cm. I might actually get him now.

To me, it doesn't look anymore complicated than a Hot Toys Truetype body, which sell on their own for about $40 - $50 a piece usually. At most, I could see it selling for about $100 before shipping.

1. It's to do with what I've observed and what I think would be a more reasonable price. I am simply stating my own viewpoint. No need to get bent out of shape. 2. Medicom and Kotobukiya are two separate companies. It is unfair to compare their prices when they work on entirely different types of figures. 3. Truetype bodies certainly did not cost that much originally. When BBTS used to sell them, they were in the $40 - $50 range. At most under $80. The Rogue Titan has barely anymore accessories to it compared to the Truetype as well.

The Rogue Titan has barely anymore accessories to it compared to the Truetype It has two heads that need to be sculpted, if this was a 30 cm high end figure of the character, be share it would bring with it the same price tag as the RAH SNK releases. You can see that the truetype has a body that need to cover up, it's not high end, it's not a complete figure even. And it is fair to compare a build figure Hot toys body to a Kotobukiya? What a total hypocrite. Here see how much those cost - www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Dtoys-and-games&field-keywords=truetype%20

See #3 for more. 2. Regardless of what it looks like, I'm only using it as an example. 3. Excuse me? Where exactly did I say I was directly comparing between the two figures? And before you go off on a tangent and quote a piece of one of my previous posts, I was talking about a POTENTIAL figure, not one that exists as of this moment. And that comparison that I was talking about is between the COMPANIES of Medicom and Kotobukiya. We DON'T KNOW how much that Rogue Titan would cost IF it was a 30cm figure because Medicom and Kotobukiya are completely different. Stop trying to grasp at straws and put words into my mouth. 4. I already said my part on this so I'm not going to repeat myself. Whatever. I said my piece about the figure and you get bent out of shape for no good reason. I'm done with this stupid argument.

Got the comics from 1 to 9 already!! In the 9th volume starts which would equal to the 2nd season. I'm reading the volume nº6 currently. This is so epic. And couldn't resist to read first 10 pages of the nº 9... I need a confirmation date about the 2nd season of the anime, because I don't know if I can freaking wait lol! I love that show so much. I don't show the covers or the top image of the volume's sides because I don't want to spoil anyone who haven't seen the anime/read the manga.

This anime book #1 arrived this morning. It's composed of the drawings/sketches of the animation from episodes 1-3. It has 148 pages DINA4. I like the paper quality, A+. (More pics)

I'm having an awful time deciding on whether to collect Kotobukiya or GSC line. Basically, I like the GSC Mikasa better than the koto one(though the koto one isn't bad), The Erens are basically a wash to me as there's things I like and dislike about both, and koto's Levi looks way better than the GSC prototype so far.
Anyone have any thoughts on which to pursue?

I would say go with the figures you like more, even if it's some GSC and some Koto. Personally, I like way more the Eren and Mikasa figures made by GSC. And Levi from Koto, more than the GSC, although I would like to see if they modify his face/hair and I want to see it painted. If nothing changes then I go with GSC Eren & Mikasa and Koto Levi. I have actually Mikasa preordered, can't wait to have it shipped this month.
