Today we are taking a look at two more Tamashii Nations Marvel S.H. Figuarts figures – Ant-Man with Ant from Ant-Man 2 and Black Panther from Infinity War. Both are upgraded versions of these characters in the SHF line. Ant-Man comes with his GIANT Ant to ride on, while Black Panther comes with a Tamashii Rock effect piece in lava colors. SHF paint, sculpt and articulation is here head to toe, though as with some other Marvel releases Black Panther is missing the upper bicep swivel. The real star here is Ant-Man though, the figure is sharp and the Ant is huge and well done. Articulation in the head, arms, wings and thorax is preset. He comes with hands to grip the saddle handles as well. It’s a great centerpiece for a shelf based line up.
We’ve run both through the motions, read on to check out over 95 HD images of the figs, both standard and fancy pants style, courtesy of Bluefin / Tamashii Nations! Both are out in Japan now and hitting US retailers as we speak!
Running catch up for the latest releases. Cap, Black Widow, Iron Man and Thanos all in one shot!

Amazing shots. That BW sculpt is the closest I've seen, but it's still not quite there for ScarJo's look, particularly in the eyes.
The biggest problem is in fact Cap. How is it that no company has been able to give him his dual Wakandan shields? Plus, it's not that the color was wrong on this face, it's the literal shape of the beard that throws it off. Otherwise, really good for the bodies on all.
I've definitely noticed that beards are a problem for SHF sculptors. Ep 2 Obi-Wan, ANH Obiwan, and now Cap all are a little bit off to me, well Cap is really off I guess.. But honestly no one has a good Headsculpt for IW Cap. The Hot Toys looks like a different person to me.
Updated with two more - Ant-Man and Black Panther...

Did the base shots on old school white BG, mix it up a bit.
And some fancies too:
Black Panther just dropped into my Pile of Loot.
I want that Ant Man.
Falcon dropping soon?

Bucky up, Hulk soon!
Nice pics! I think this is the first SHF that I know of that has a removable gun clip like that.
I'm a BIG Spider-Man fan, so that Iron Spider costume disgusts me. And it reminds me that I really shouldn't be so hot on Iron Man either.
What a weird thing to be angry about. It's entirely possible to enjoy comics without the creepyass gatekeeping, my dude. Comics is the only fandom I've seen that is fragile enough to feel threatened by more people enjoying stuff.
But due to the whining, I see now that I missed some thread updates! So thanks for the bump, the photos are fantastic.
So Enigma expresses an opinion on a costume, and he gets...
I hate to tell you this 'dudes', but you really don't come across as the open-minded people you seem to think you are. But hey, I guess you 'brah's' can engage in 'creepyass gatekeeping' and 'whining' with your 'fragile threatened' ego's all you want - because you're the good bro's, right?
I'm more of a classics fan, and I don't really like the costume much either. But I also have no problem at all if other people do. I might be missing out on a previous argument or something, but those responses were just bizarre.

There are enough people shitting all over the movies because they aren't presented in the same nostalgic tint, some of us are a little weary of it. It's really simple. If you want costumes that have flat featureless spandex in two whole colors, man, you go enjoy. The comics you love still exist. I like them quite a lot, as well.
I'm sure the people who make those decisions looked into slavishly recreating some of those costume designs when they started this entire movie venture and, like any person with taste, realized they look boring as hell/downright goofy on the screen. Thankfully.
Every thread about the movies devolves into this pointless, juvenile stuff. Can we talk about obscenely pretty pictures of toys?
And as for 'child', I'll just add that to 'creepyass', 'fragile / threatened' and 'whining' as mature discussion shall I?
Any yes, the toys look pretty, even the Spiderman one.

And Lionheart... wasn't necessary for you to fight my battles, but I appreciate it.
