to me its all comes down to whether or not you have enough space to display your figures. if you have small room and small shelfs, buy crane figures, maybe throw in some ichiban kuji figures for some contrast. I have small shelf so i mix both crane and ichiban figures, 80:20 ratio. I think that its the best for starter, from there you can adjust and customize to your liking
That’s a good point however crane figures on bases tend to take up more shelf space than Kuji
@@MatchesPeaches true cuz crane figures use more dynamic poses so the bases have to be big to hold the figures. I guess thats the reason why i like to mix both types, to have more contrast
This was going to be my comment. Great point. I currently have a mixture.
@@MatchesPeachesI think it depends on the line. I know for Naruto, the Vibration Stars line with the dynamic poses take up a lot of space
@@Treet246 most bases do. Some series like Clearise or Solid Edge Works are exceptions since they don’t carry a base
One thing that really pisses me off is that before a few years ago , we used to have amazing prize/crane figures with soooo much difference brands/makers and a lot of more variety of characters figures like for the budokai tenkaishi crane figures we used to have ox-king , chichi , goku farming and etc , that really looked amazing with a lot of shading and sculpture quality, and a lot of brands like grandista , maximatic , DXF , WCF and etc , and look at it now literally all we are getting mostly of the time are mediocre figures with poor sculpture quality and almost no shading at all and literally only have a few figures brands like only : BoS , solid edge works, GxMateria , match markers and history box , like really only that , I wish we could get all those amazing figures back :(
I’m fine as long as Kuji are good!
Yeah fr and even the start of some of the newer series of figures had amazing shading like the old stuff. Crazy how it all went down
Thanks for the educational details 👌👍 you got me start collecting last year... keep up the good work 👍
Can't stop won't stop
My first ever figure was the Goku from Battle of Z collectors edition which then lead me to Master star piece as they matched up. I never knew they fell into crane figures with all these other ones.
Yup!
Your traps look nutty. Keep up the good work in the gym and with the videos.
Years of lifting and CrossFit + my genes. Thanks man!
My favorites are Ichiban Kuji/Ichibansho, about the crane figures my favorites at the moment are Gxmateria, Match Makers and sometimes Solid Edge Works, about the old cranes my favorites was Scultures, Master Star Piece, Grandista, Glitter Glamours and for sometimes also FES!
FES is the GOAT
@@MatchesPeaches Many Gokus, Goku Black, but we never got one Goten!
@@danielportugal7691 yup because it was a Goku focused set haha
@@MatchesPeaches i know my friend, but that's the thing, we just don't get always Goku, we got Goku Black, Goku Black SSJ Rose and even Gogeta SSJ4, that's why they could be doing a Goten since Goten is just like Goku
I have the full set of majin vegeta and trunks before buu fight crane king and dragon ball vs existence ichibansho
Both really good and of high quality
I don’t think they differ as much in terms of quality but I can’t testify on other figures.
I do however saw that the parallel dramatic showcase figure of goku and Gohan vs cell seems much worse in pictures and the vs existence one.
To each their own
More quality, more money to buy :))) although sometimes there are some figs that are not worthy enough
Cant wait for someone to still believe that history boxes are ichiban kujis
It will happen lol
thanks to you because of u i stopped playing crane and start buying ichiban kuji. crane prize is just too small, and price almost the same here if i buy from local japanese third online market. ive spend like $1000++ now 🥵
Nice!
I can understand why some people cant get Ichiban Kuji or Sho figures. I mean some are $100+. Lowest are usually around $50. For 1 figure. People can find crane figures for much cheaper and get multiple for the price of 1 Sho. Especially if they shop at places like Ross. They go for $10-15.
Ichibansho isnt for everyone because of the price. Money is tight these days. And even when I was a kid no way my mom had it to spend $75 on a figure.
Times are changing though. Many Sho are $30-40 now on the low end. I think people need to look at the pricing before making a decision.
love it!!!!!
Thanks man!
Wish we would get more grandista. There’s quite a few grandistas that I think are better than a good amount of Kujis.
Well funnily enough - there’s a brand new One Piece Grandista coming. That could mean that it’s not completely dead and DBZ could get more in the future!
@@MatchesPeaches so you’re saying there’s a chance?! That’s awesome to hear though.
Are maximize and grandista crane figures ? lol
You mean Maximatic? If so - yes.
@@MatchesPeaches yes ! Haha
How about grandista ?
@@JayJaramillo89 both - yes. Grandista was really popular and I assume made in limited quantity so they’re more expensive nowadays.
It’s actually pronounced “krayn” not crane FYI 🤙
😂
Akshwally it’s pronounced “FWAI” not “FYI” 🤓
hot take: Grandista is better than Kuji
They're not little more expensive They're double the price 😂😢 I'm personally gonna stick with crane figure for a while
You can buy a lot of Ichibansho for nearly the same price as a crane figure.
And we aren’t talking hundreds of dollars here. My point is instead of buying multiple $30 figures, you could wait a little longer and get a $30-60 Ichiban Kuji or Sho. It’s really up to you :)
@@MatchesPeaches I think you right you can buy them with even cheaper used that's something to think about ❤️
Its pronounced “Ee chee ban”
Not itchy ban
In Japanese, pronunciation could completely change the meaning of a word, or make a word nonexistent.
FYI 🤙🏼
