Title: Konami produces their own SOTN Maria figure
Post by: Super Waffle on July 27, 2009, 07:41:19 PM: (https://castlevaniadungeon.net/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg43.imageshack.us%2Fimg43%2F4048%2Fpapanda864img600x450124.jpg&hash=88ac6e769eaf127949b6ddaec3f7e36e5680deb3)

Konami decides to make said figure an obscure arcade-exclusive collectors' item that will most likely never see the light of day on English import sites.

God I'm so pissed right now.

These figures are a continuation of an older set of reward figures based on the Judgment game (featuring Not Simon and Misa, if anybody likes horribly-designed things):

The quality is okay... but would indeed go well with Symphony, the OST and Tiger handheld as the ultimate fan package ;D

Nice info dude, its like a good breath after that horribly and disgusting style of Judgment

Post by: Profbeanburrito on July 28, 2009, 02:24:51 AM: I just got Vol 1, Judgment's Simon and Maria in the mail today and they're actually really good quality. They stand about 5-6 inches tall, and are made of a good quality plastic.

I'm not a fan of the Maria design, but I do like the Simon. I figured I'd just get them while I still saw them on eBay, and am looking forward to finding the SotN ones, especially after being so surprised how well these are put together.

Rondo Maria is made of generic '90s anime design. Take one of a dozen different loli characters in summer dresses and stick Sailor Venus's head on her. That is Rondo of Blood Maria Renard. The only thing worse is DXC Pretty Little Boy Maria.

Hell, Judgment Maria gets more of a reaction out of me than Rondo Maria. A negative, "oh my god what is that thing?"-type reaction, but it's better than being completely indifferent.

Everyone in Rondo is made of "generic '90s anime design"; that's one of the things that made it frikkin' awesome. It was like the frikking CastleVania Cartoon that you'd never play until fifteen years later (but with oil paints, wussyfaces, and Deathnote).

... no they weren't.

Richter obviously stole Ryu's head, but his actual outfit was unique and tried to look like it was from the correct century.

Title: Re: Konami produces their own SOTN Maria figure
Post by: Profbeanburrito on August 18, 2009, 12:48:27 AM: Just got my Alucard and Maria figures in the mail today and they are just as good looking as any picture. And way better looking than the Judgment ones! ;D
Title: Re: Konami produces their own SOTN Maria figure
Post by: Super Waffle on December 15, 2009, 05:09:26 PM: So now that I actually have money to spend, does anyone have a spare SotN Maria they want to do away with?

anybody?

plz?

I know there's a few floating around eBay for like $50 BEFORE overseas shipping costs, but that's just ridiculous.
Title: Re: Konami produces their own SOTN Maria figure
Post by: Profbeanburrito on December 15, 2009, 09:44:47 PM: Yeah they're pricey but if you really want them, they're worth it. The quality is amazing
Title: Re: Konami produces their own SOTN Maria figure
Post by: Super Waffle on December 19, 2009, 08:37:19 PM: Well I did find this (http://www.cosplay.com/marketplace/showproduct.php/product/16239), but the guy hasn't answered my PM. :/

I'm guessing this is either because he already sold it or because he's uncomfortable dealing with some guy who offered him a Paypal exchange on the same day that he registered on the site.

Post by: Trussingbook on June 11, 2011, 01:16:42 PM: I came across this thread and thought i would share my figures with you guys. I got these a while ago to go with my neca castlevania collection. The Arcade figures were hard to get hold of.

Someone should tell Crisis about this, so he can get it for his vast Cv collection before he smashes it all to pieces. Cuz if you're gonna destroy your collection, it might as well be complete, dammit
Title: Re: Konami produces their own SOTN Maria figure
Post by: Trussingbook on June 11, 2011, 03:14:32 PM: There is also the Judgement figures too

those aren't actual figurines, they for Playstation Home, so they're digital figurines for decorating digital house, unfortunately .
