Vangelus Review 65 - Figma Drossel

[Arro3]

Funny, I'm watching this review again and you were saying how "Drossel" and "Badass" doesn't mix, but she was pretty damn cool in Charming. ;P

You should check it out sometime you're free.

[MopGunZ93]

i just pre-ordered the latest model the 'charming' variant, its a lot different from the original but its still cool, even wiith the 'leg-head' design, the ponytails will be missed :')

[Shanedapain3991]

MONKYE

[l337m4s73r]

Are you gonna get the Charming Drossel Figma that's coming out?

[infringementMAN]

This was my first Figma and I just bought on a whim. I had no idea it would be that rare.

[CitrusJuicebox]

I just took a look at the prices for this figure, and they're getting pretty insane. Damn, figures appreciate FAST.

[assassincreed26]

its funny how you did the ending

[sonicfan4271]

I want to get 1 but I'm afraid to get a fake one what do I do!?!?

[CaptainKacknup]

@sonicfan4271

Go to amiami or hobby link japan. Those are some legit sites.

[TheBigguy500]

im getting a brs figma if the joints are sticky what should i do

[SaturdayTerra]

Hi! I just recently started to become interested in figmas and since Im thinking of buying one, Is there a universal size for all figmas?

Can anyone give an approximation? Such as 6 inches etc.

Thanks!

[clautjejoepie]

@SaturdayTerra figmas are in between 10 to 14 cm (I don't know in inches sorry ^^; )

depends on the age of the character and which serie it comes from, lucky star was made slightly smaller than the usual XD

[rajeevxd]

where can you get one i must have on............well the new figma charming.

[rajeevxd]

where can you get one i must have one....well the new whone the charming version

[MasterGravitron]

E-bay is full of counterfeits. Watch out!

[Starluna21]

@kaisertech WHERE CAUSE AFTER AFFORD LUM IM GETTING ER

[kaisertech]

how did u solve the shoulder tightness?

[kaisertech]

I recently got this figure for only $35

[RockmanCollection]

Hmmm actually I think she looks like Miku Hatsune and that's why I liked it...but then I saw fireball and I liked it.

[Meutainer]

what is drossel from?

[RockmanCollection]

@Meutainer

Fireball. It's a cool disney anime.

[ihateadobe]

@Meutainer drossel is from fireball



[NemesisViralBruticus]

@Meutainer He said Fireball.

[XwrennyX]

i loved how you went ITS POWER FLIGHT HEAD DROSSEL! that made me crack up! xDDD i agree that the microman series is in fact DEAD.... XDD

[alexisanime1232]

what website is it that they sell figmas on at a great price

[xxxNarutoTARDxxx]

CREEPY BALD ROBOT 2.0

[TheDarkharveststudio]

if they make a figma of her sidekick will you get it?

[Sonicfan1396]

what series is this character from?

[cosmicaler]

@Sonicfan1396 DISNEY'S FIREBALL(S)!

[Sonicfan1396]

@cosmicaler this things from disney!? i didn't know they had robot shows!

[cosmicaler]

@Sonicfan1396 it only released on the Japanese Disney Channel.

[Sonicfan1396]

@cosmicaler oh, that makes more sense, also i didn't know japan had disney.

[cosmicaler]

@Sonicfan1396 haha me too, i just googled it XD. ALso the series is quite good.

[darkrailvx12]

I saw a stop motion of Hatsune Miku turning into this! They do look alike!

[NyakuneYami]

Thank you for this- it motivated me to search with extravagant diligence- and SUCCEED in finding one for $30! (two years after you said it was practically nowhere- you weren't kidding.) BUT now I own one and once it arrives in the mail awesomeness shall COMMENCE!

[RokuroCarisu]

@AnimeXRex Drossel isn't creepy, she's CUTE! ^-^

[funny0anime0lover]

That's it, I'm getting a Drossel!

[noctis11223344]

um, does anyone know where i can get a figma dossel? i want one but idk where to buy it

thx

[spump303]

@noctis11223344 errr. look online? websites like amazon, or more trusted sources like AmiAmi. com may be a good place to look?

[hugs4gir]

"...And you have a creepy bald robot!" XDDDDDDDD

[hugs4gir]

Destroyer of Worlds. Regular show or this? XD

[AkatsukiType100]

Aahhh! Claydoll!

[triplehydra]

I want this so much, if only for her fabulous poses.

[DoubleMiz]

I love the Drossel Figma, fortunately for me her joints are still intact after posing it a few times over the last two years.

[MasterOfClix]

elena fan!!! nice

[wargun1000]

my my glasses, oh there they are rofl XD

[v1994c]

Hatsune Miku + Robot Boy = Drossel?

[sarujo]

Thanks. I had wanted to know about this toy since I saw images of it on a Japanese blog that appeared to focus on rare Japanese coins. I really want one.

[Gat720Dua]

Looks like Miku from Vocaloids mix with Iron Man.

[KajiMotomiya]

Drossel: Wow. (lol best line of episode 6)

[MetalPcAngel]

I remember when I got this over 100$, and I mean the same model as yours. Well Figma models are really good as for inports and model wise.

[negathief]

creepy bald robot is freeza's wife

[yaoi1yummy]

... hatsune miku?

[GundamLegacyExtreme]

T^T I was just hit by my own first figma tight joint destruction... my Figma of Fate Testarosa's right arm broke cuz of paint in the joint

[TheHarryMason]

ima huge fan your reviews are some of my fav vids on all the webz<3

[xXMMDMaDhOuSeXx]

SHISHKABABOO

I laughed X'D

[jouchiXkisame]

she is an amazing figure but she is hard to find and expensive.

[joshuayip2010]

did have figma light eye O_O

[seohyunsooyoung9]

ludacrisly hard to find

so if u find it u should get LUDACRIS SPEED SHIPPING!!!!!

[ragnarock0100]

i didnt know you play 3rd strike? do you use ggpo?

[KimmieCoKagome]

Id Love Drossel for stopmotions. ^_^

[shadow12345678901357]

where do u get this toy?

[fyiiamthetf2fan]

wow, i leave this on to hear it, its just awesome

[GundamLegacyExtreme]

I've... yet to have a problem with any of my figma's sides my Figma of len which... was my fault and that was I snapped the peg for the stand into his back and can't get it out.

[Yakimurai]

Does the eyes lite up?

[l337m4s73r]

@Yakimurai No but I've seen videos wherre some people take the head apart and implant an LED to make glowing eyes.

[tetra7billy]

You know, FIGMA seemed a bit girlish (because I've only seen the female characters and I'm a huuuuge frackin' fan of Revoltech), but when I saw these Drossel Von Flugel figures, I was intrigued. Cant really explain why or how, but I ordered all 4 figures for 20 bucks new on Ebay. Hopefully they'll be worthy to be part of my collection of mechas and bots, but if not... I'm sure my sisters would like 'em. Eitherway, thanks for the vid, you helped me make the final decision to buy them

[Marius2000]

you need to make shows as you have a pleasant voice which people will listen to

[TheXScissor]

The little bit at the end was the best part!

[JpCaff]

I loved your review, and I loved the way you speak about SF3.3 :)

[lmaocats101]

I'd love to see Figma Drossel in toy story XD.

[llahsram555]

It looks like Sari's robot form...custom anybody?

[Kaymac192]

@llahsram555

Someone's already done it! Look it up! :)

[llahsram555]

@Kaymac192 thnx!

[Mecha82]

Thats one intresting looking figure. I might actually now check out Fireball.

[falant3]

Very nice review. xD

I got drossel too, but i have a question about her feet joint.

My drossel cant do ankle sprains. Feet only go up, down, turn left and right... but spin to right or left. Is it possible?

[yesac100]

i actually found out about fireball by trying to find a nendoroid figure of exelica (of triggerheart exelica) online. i saw a nendoroid of drossel, and thawt it looked cool, so i looked it up... now ima fireball fan and want the figma and nendoroid figures of drossel xD

[BecauseIs]

I couldn't wait until people re-stocked. So i bought her for 90 bucks. :D That's as much as i would pay. 30 extra bucks seem like a lot, they probably are, but hey, Drossel is like my favourite mechamusume. :P

[RockmanCollection]

@BecauseIs

...I think though even w/ out the restock you could've got it cheaper....

but at least you go it.

Like I got the chogokin one for about $70...

[holsson85]

A bunch of these showed up on a swedish page but they cost like 40 us dollars, way to much in my opinion!

[sachaandsox]

LOVE THE ENDING

[Madashell23]

Hey Vangey, are you going to be one of those people that will review Haruhi and Lucky Star Figmas and other stuff like that?

[AnimeGuruma]

I love your voice :D

I have 13 figmas and 5 revoltechs ^;^ I like figmas more you see ^^

I don't have drossel yet tho...maybe I'll get her one day because she's so popular and most figure otakus have her^^

[NeedlesSTKane]

I <3 Drossel

[yesac100]

@NeedlesSTKane why of course! who wouldn't love Drossel?

[NeedlesSTKane]

@yesac100 communists that's who lol

[1Synner]

I got one on eBay, and it is AWESOME! :}

[GNSquacker]

figmapillar!

the handracklol

[HaipaaBurosamu]

I just bought one of these last week on Amazon for $80 but she was WELL worth the money. I just got mine in the mail today. Been playing around with her. But I just discovered her right leg occasionally pops off but it's easy to snap back on :) Great review! It's actually what made me wanna buy her. I'm a happy person right now.

[theprimo100]

What are Pax Pox?

[shadowrizer3]

wheres the charecter from

[popanti]

I must agree with mrclay701. Nice voice indeed!

[transformerszx]

did you get Drossel at "Soul of Anime" ????

[nakobass28]

Figma Kos-Mos Ver 4 Jan 2011. Didn't care either until I found out they are doing Kos-Mos from Xenosaga with all of her weapons.

[rubitu21]

kinda looks like eve from wall-e ^^

[ishouldplayzelda]

sfbt 1. by one and do a review of that

[yko0000]

I got mine a few months back. I completely agree with the review. Given the way the Figma joints work, Drossel is really the perfect figma to pose with.

[slade13]

Drossel Kick!

Just got mine XD

img822.imageshack.us/img822/19­62/drosselkick(dot)jpg

XD

[slade13]

Just got mine XD and, yeah, that flight piece is a little funky

[1doller]

the third hair peace make it look like the claydoll dopunt from kamen rider double 0_o

[yuujinmikeru]

I think the Gashapon Drossels would make better custom Sari Supremes. Less expensive and more in scale with Animated figures.

[slade13]

Thanks for this vid... found one through FlutterScape XD

Can't wait for this and Black Rock Shooter's Figma figure coming out later this month XD

[nightslash3535]

I swear the only Figma I'll get will be the upcoming Kamen Rider ones.

[MasterKurow]

When the Figma Dragon Knight/Ryuki figures come out, will ya review em?

[nightslash3535]

Somewhere in September, according to Max Factory's blog.

[MasterKurow]

@nightslash3535

Seriously?

How about Sunred?

[nightslash3535]

@MasterKurow How should I know, I don't even care about them.

[areeb10000]

i like you vange1us .... shoryuken

[buttmunch109]

yo vangelus all of a sudden my youtube is japaneese wierd

[buttmunch109]

man i wish fireball was in america its soo cool & drossels my fav

[chibiboru]

found one on ebay for $14.99, but I don't think it had all the accessories O: I did find one that was only $34.90 including the shipping.......but only 12days 14hours left

[SasuSaku7777]

rip off of hatsune miku >:c

[DoctorOblivian]

it looks like animated sari...

hmmmm... that give me an idea!

[oOShaeOo]

CREEPY BALD ROBOT! 8D

No, seriously, you convinced me to buy her.

[nightslash3535]

Chogokin Drossel, will you got that?

[SkelanimalRoxas]

i got one for 32.98

18$ shipping <<

[SoundWavePrime1]

Can you easily take figmas apart?

thinking of makeing a custom samus and i NEED to know

[Vange1us]

@SoundWavePrime1 I haven't tried  :(

[tsunayoshi3]

@Vange1us What is Figma? detailed explanation please

[digioverlord]

what is with all the custom samus figures? ive seen countless customs of her

all over the internet

[randomese8]

@SoundWavePrime1

Yes there easy to take apart.

I have 8 figma, and i always swap parts to see what happens. haha.

[Mamoru0Hasukage]

I would sugjest using revoltech instead. If you need to do molding you can also buy just the joints aswell.

[cosmicaler]

@SoundWavePrime1 yes, almost all of it, you can remove the hands, leg joint, arm, and the head.

most figmas are like that.

[RokuroCarisu]

@cosmicaler I've seen a pretty cool picture at DeviantArt, of a Drossel with Yuki Nagato's head. ^^

[bubbag02]

I don't think I've been this entertained by a video toy review in a very long time, if ever. Good Job. I also have a figma Drossel as well as the Chogokin; both excellent in their own right. Your video really conveyed the awesomeness of the figma version. It's unfortunate that both toys are hard to find at non-scalper prices due to her popularity.

BTW, you don't like Drossel's posing?! The outrage!! :D

[shadex2]

I have the Die cast one. Drossel is <3

[TheMajinSonic]

ROTF Scrapel is checking Figma out.

[TheCastellan]

@TheMajinSonic

And getting PWN'ED for it. XD

[pyrogamer01]

Great review! I love your voice and ramblings. I haven't really thought about buying figmas (sticking with nendoroids), but I'm tempted to get this one. I pre-ordered the drossel nendoroid so I'm looking forward to getting it!

[nyomichan]

"Drossel Juno Vierzehntes Heizregister Fürstin von Flügel" so cool

[autobot552]

can you review the di:stage stands that are made for figmas and figures of like scale

[Vange1us]

Unfortunately I don't have any di:stage stands :(

[xXMMDMaDhOuSeXx]

@Vange1us di:stage can be purchased on Amazon.com for about $10 :) I have one and i love it!

[MopGunZ93]

i dont even know what drossel is :L

but i think this is an awesome figure

[Lazercatsable]

That robot has one long ass name!

[RaverFoxtrot]

I cant figure out why half of her name sounds German. von Flugel? Its even spelled with an umulaut. Ja, ist DEUSTCH.

[Keroshino]

just got her today! I found her at my local "chinatown" lol

[canadiangirl1999]

the only thing i know about the figma (my speakers are being stupid T^T) is that she has changible hair like things and she from disney japan XD

[mrclay701]

dude, you have a nice voice,you're like an announcer, radio dj, or whatsoever...btw, nc review

[Levitz9]

@mrclay701 He was the voice of Transtech Shockwave at a TFCon script-reading. Look it up on Youtube--it's around.

[Vange1us]

@Levitz9 It's on MY CHANNEL, hahaha

[SonicMegamanFan]

I just spent the last half hour watching every episode of Fireball. I am in love with Drossel.

[7ShadowsofLight]

@SonicMegamanFan: Where did you see EVERY episode? I only saw 8 on youtube.

[SonicMegamanFan]

All of them are on Youtube. Just look up Fireball Drossel.

[mannystella]

YES!!! m going to get one in two more weeks

[TheFinalSaint]

watching this a second time I have noticed the fighting game reference's. I curse myself for that T.T

anyway seeing the winter Drossel HELL OMFG DOOD. Yeah, kick ass. Also I saw a Nendoroid Drossel that is UNBELIEVABLY CUTE. chyeah

[Keroshino]

@TheFinalSaint

Nendoroid Drossel is awesome...and she has light-up eyes :D

[Nephy3107]

Jumping on the /toy/ bandwagon and getting myself one from Otacute. They only had 5 left when I ordered mine, so be quick!

Also getting Saber as well, seems like a nice toy too.

[neosyonic]

umm...whats your level of education cause I am hearing words that could only come from a university degree in English... That is a compliment to you.

[fdjjaco]

hey vangelus i saw some relvoltech toys at my local anime store should i buy them because they look cool

[AAarcher221]

I'm getting one from Amazon coming in 2-3 days for $40.

[FatManScoop1100]

you put your figures in awsome posses

[KayKayEnd]

love your review. Trying to get her as its all sold out, even for pre-orders...lol

[Actar576295]

Might it be possible to get you interested in the rest of the Figma line? (^.^)

[Vange1us]

I'm definitely hoping to grab Duke Togo sometime! :D

[piinus]

@Vange1us You can't wait, They're imported. That's the price. But once they're gone, there gone. Yeah, there will be another version but...you'll want THAT version. lol...

[destructorv2]

Drossel is really hard to find in my country, i did find one and that seller increase the price real high due to the rarity.

But if i find it, is it a must get? cos if not i'll rather get Figma Golgo13 instead.

[Vange1us]

If the price has been cranked up I'd say don't go for it unless you -really- love the show or the look of the character

[Sceptile123]

I have a question about shipping from HLJ : How long does shipping take from there?

[Vange1us]

EMS is superfast, SAL is anywhere from 1 week to 1 month, really depends on where you are and how long SAL from japan takes to get there.

[Sceptile123]

Okay thanks, I'm in Europe :P

[AnimeLover51013]

My birthday is in like... a month... I do want to get a portable video camera for my b-day.... but I'd much rather have this. XD

[AyuAkaSalta]

Just today I created Stop motion video using this figma :D She is awesome!

[SheriiKitty]

i want one..

[Levitz9]

Funny ending! Drossel looks cool, too.

[krx50]

hey vangelus, could you please start reviewing more awesome Kamen Rider Figure like that SH Figuarts Black RX?

[amitamaru]

It's weird that they made such a well put together toy for something that really makes no sense.

[Sceptile123]

OK, going to get this. :P

[TheRikkuFanboy]

Did you hear about the new Drossel Goshapon kits, Vangelus?

[Vange1us]

Indeed, they look wiggy cool

[gessnesse]

you find them boreing because they aren't a helpless little boy to have your way with. I"M JUST KIDDING BUDDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RONIE099]

i Just ordered one!!

[AlanGarou]

It looks a lot like Sari.

[Keroshino]

Hand-Racks FTW

[Mangamad7]

Manga do so want to get a hold of this. The last time I saw this item was in J-list.

[ImmortalRuler]

where can i find this series and how many episodes are there

[IamironLan]

xD my drawing figma things hand broke off.

[TheVagabond7]

Never heard of this character or this show, but that is an extremely cool-looking toy. Just like you did to me with GaoGaiGar, you may have just nudged me into tracking it down...

CURSE YOU! :O

[Vange1us]

It's called Fireball, and it's less than half an hour total! Do iiiiiit
