Please join the First 4 Figures collector's club group too, guys. It's pretty entertaining in there, and I was able to give feedback on the design for Alucard's face, weapon, etc. They're also involved in making a lot of Dark Souls, Nintendo and Sonic stuff, and now getting into anime as well with Saitama and Berserk. Pretty cool stuff. Just wish I could have afforded Sif lol... www.facebook.com/groups/first4figures/Getting new members is great too, because at milestones they reveal new licenses and stuff. Last Friday they announced Bayonetta and Metal Gear Solid. D: |

First 4 Figures makes awesome products, but they are ungodly expensive. Obviously you pay for such high quality, but it is way beyond a price that I can afford as a student and occasional worker.

I do not believe they ship outside of the US. They do not with the Belmont statue is says. But I have seen the Belmont statue on eBay so I know its there at least. Not interested in that one however.

I changed the source when you wrote in the shoutbox, from facebook to imgur. Maybe that was the issue, but if you have checked a week ago or so and it still didn't show up, I blaim the internet  And that linked look is even better! |

So they posted a new update on the facial sculpt and paint for Alucard (see attached).
I think it looks good, but I had the following to say, too:
I like how it looks...save for one thing. I think the skin color is -too- pale. Using this as a reference...(there will be a lot of linked pics here):
vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/castlevania/images/2/27/Alucard_002.jpg
There is a light biege to his skin here, and even 250 years later he still has some degree of color heh:
vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/castlevania/images/5/56/Arikado_Genya.png/revision/latest?cb=20140715152918
For the official pics, there are different versions of them depending on the scan where Alucard's hair will look more/less blonde. I think the more obviously "blonde" he is, the more color his skin should have, at least. For example:
This
vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/castlevania/images/e/e7/Alucard.png Vs. this:
livedoor.blogimg.jp/runaticlabo/imgs/a/3/a3574dbe.jpg
Something in the middle, kind of a "rose gold" look:
farm4.static.flickr.com/3414/3186253822_47fb348dba.jpg
So, imo, for the contrast and appearance to be spot-on and accurate to me, if he is depicted as blonde, he also needs a bit of color. I think this could even be canonically explained since he's of course half-human and may have more/less pallor to his skin and hair depending on how or how recently he's partaken of blood.
Forumites: if you agree/disagree or have any input on this, join the First 4 Figures collector's club facebook group and talk it out.

I need to update this thread with the shots from NYCC, but first let's look at dem shoes lol. First is the official art the statue is based off of, second is the figure itself. Pretty close.   |

There's a poll up in their group for what more/new figures we want to see. Right now, Richter (SotN), Maria (SotN) and Trevor (CoD) are leading with Shanoa close behind. www.facebook.com/groups/first4figures/See above post for a link to the Alucard figure Attachments:

All of this is great, and congrats to the people who can afford it... But man, this is seriously out of my range. And even if it was, if they don't ship international I'm boned regardless, |
