Oooh! Interesting!
Would they complete the entire main cast?

yeah, that would be nice, gotta have Godbrand!  lol.  random thought:  must check game inventories to see if there’s a Godbrand sword in any games.

Maybe I watched too much Jobby the Hong, but I'd buy a Figure of the cast 5 times over just to dynamically pose them.

it's partly because of the style of drawing, but it doesn't look great to me. Classic Simon statues were much more detailed and well executed in comparison.

I'm honestly not impressed.  But the company says they are going to be making posable figures as well, and I love Diamond Select figures (especially their takes on VanHelsing and Lucy Westerna as a monster hunting vampire.)  Unfortunately at this time it seems they only have the license for the Netflix series and not the games, but that could always change if these sell well.

I'm souring a bit on Trevor's design in the Netflix series... I liked it better with the cape, and was hoping he would armor up a little bit more, especially after entering the Belmont hold.  Also the proportions on this figure are off, his legs are too short.  I'd give it a B-.

Need SotN Maria tho.

But if it's got to be a CV3 era figure, PachiSypha would be nice. She's cute too.

Like his traditional CV3 box art? He's got the cape and the armour.

Just a heads up to anyone interested, this is now up for preorder on BigBadToyStore and Netertainment Earth. I preordered mine this morning at BBTS for $45 so not a bad price. It’s not as amazing as some of the other CV statues but for the price I’m happy with it.

Not necessarily to that degree, but something reminiscent of it.
