So, if youd ever want to give Ceruledge another shot, bandai is coming out with a model kit version of it in April, i do believe. I dont know what your personal take is on models, but I love them!
How is it fixable? cuz you can just glue it right we dont want it to be stiff... I dont know about the topic but would be awesome if you do a vid about it
There's upcoming Bandai Model kits of both Meowscarada and Ceruledge here slated for 2025. Bandai tend to kill it when it comes to their pokepla figures if all you want is a good static display of a Pokémon. I definitely recommend them.
One of the best Pokémon figures I own! And it’s my favourite Pokémon ( sucks it can barely stand without the stand ) my figure isn’t that loose. Mine actually has very tight joints Edit 1: wow in 2 weeks 109 likes! 🔥thanks everyone
Basically all figures in this line are such a cool consept but....all have a mixture of of all of issues such as loose joints, thin joints leaidng to stress as soon as any movemet or pressure, missing articulation completely in some areas or hinges to not block movement such as this figures front armor blocking the legs from going far forward.
The only thing I can think of making it so it can stand is by adding a extra joint thats tighter (as to not make the joint useless and fall over again) to its feet with a clear plate that has a joint pointing upwards to feet.
if able i'd definitely try to exchange him because my Ceruledge figure is definitely not that bad in the joints. the standing is definitely a challenge but yeah definitely just seemds to be a bad copy joint wise.
I'm still waiting for the tinkaton figure and it would be cool if her hammer was heavy. Also i remember getting a flygon from this toy line and one of it's eyes was upside down. And you couldn't tell because that side was covered in the box
Im excited for mine to get here honestly this series is the first one im gonna grab like every pokemon in because I love photographing these figures. I was honestly worried about the articulation on him with some of the past mons have an interesting limited articulation like the johto trio. I think the only thing I’d want them to do different is have semi transparent parts for the flame areas
I actually just did my first custom paint job on my ceruledge figure, just so it can be a shiny version and cause the shiny is terrible, it was really REALLY easy 😂
@ not sure I just remember during the scarlet and violet release seeing something like the guy who did the megaman zero designs worked on the design for them. I forgot what article it was.
@@Ky_Shiryu I just know him back then when he designing venipede and shelmet line 2, of my most favorite bug type pokemon from gen V He's really great at designing cool loking pokemon And I started digging his work again after found out that he also the one that designing charcadet line, that's my fav rn
This figure looks so awesome, it’s unfortunate you had so many problems with it, though I gotta ask arnt you nervous at all when you do any shots with fire
I actually picked this up a few weeks ago at Target and they had it on clearance for $13 no joke, now back up to $20. But mine didn’t have any joint issues like yours is having, what a bust 😢
Ceruledge is definitely one of my favourite pokemon!! I’m very disappointed about it being a target exclusive as that makes it harder to get in Canada 😔 Still, I wouldn’t mind some loose joints as I think of my figures just like my other toys :P
One of the best looking Pokemon created, and I was super excited to get this figure and like you said it looks great, but the issue with the joints is such a letdown.
I own some of these guys. Flygon, Ceruledge, Samurott, and Toxtricity. Upset at myself for constantly passing on Dragapult everytime I saw it (I was obsessed with getting Samurott despite also loving Dragapult) and now I can't find it for retail. If anything I hope I can get the others in Ceruledge's wave (maybe minus Rayquaza I haven't decided if I want em)
I managed to get one a week ago and yeah, the articulation and mobility are awful. But everything else is so cool that I can't be angry at it. I ended up doing a sort of Wolverine like pose, a bit of twist in the waist, one blade up, the other down, and a bit of bend on the knees. It looks great once you manage to get all things correctly.
I was straight up watching Smiths toys here in the IK when i found one, waiting for it to come out. I have it now and I wish it had more articulation but I am happy with it. that said a Figma of any of the charcadet line would be fantastic.
Man I’m so sorry that you’re Ceruledge has loose joints but mine had good ones so I think you might have gotten a bad one but I feel the sadness of the loose joints cus this exact thing happened with my greninja
I HAVE ONE! Let me just say I was also pretty disappointed. I was so excited to use to for dynamic poses for art references or stop motion animation only to find out it isn’t very good at posing. It can barely stand on its own and trying to shove the stand in it was extremely tough. I thought mine was messed up but it’s just extremely hard. It’s a nice figure to look at but I would have liked it if I could pose it more. I thought it would be more posable but it really wasn’t 💔
For whatever reason when i bought him he rang up $13. I didnt even bother with the stand, i just drilled holes at the bottom of his feet and use a peg stand. Joints wound up alright on my copy
Probably just a QC thing. As someone who collects Hasbro stuff on the regular, I always keep some joint tightener handy just in case. Still a shame though
@@heitorsales6659look up “Kiki” 👍 It’s essentially Matt glue varnish, it thickens an area of joint to increase the friction. You could also just use nail polish (clear Matt) but kiki’s is better 👍
Kiki and KBN are two products made to be used to tighten loose joints on action figures. One drop is usually enough to make them stronger without causing damage.
I've been pretty unimpressed with this line as of late. The first 5 or 6 releases in this line were great. Lucario, the legendary birds, Charizard, Rayquaza, all great. But the more recent ones have had a lot of joints but not the ability to use them. Samurott, my favorite starter pokemon, has over 20 points of articulation, but some of the bends offer no more than 5 degrees of bend. Tyranitar, the legendary Beasts, and Ceruledge all have this same issue. It's frustrating. I'm hoping the Bandai Pokepla of Ceruledge and Armarouge are better than this.
My copys got nice and TIGHT joints. Nothing is flippy floppy. My only complaint is the very limited leg movement. I would have liked to get a running pose out of him, but his legs do not go forward and backwards at all
I have this figure and most of his joints are a little uncomfortably tight but the only problem I personally have with it is that his ab crunch in his chest is super loose so he kinda like looks like an old man half the time
I wish there was a good Pikachu figure that could do a bit of movement while being accurate in size with the other Pokémon. There was one that came with SH Figuarts Ash. But to get that figure, you'll have to pay up the arse for that figure now because it's only on Ebay because it's not available anymore.
I liked this figure overall but i ordered it online and one of the arms basically fell off immediately after opening it. The peg wasnt all the way thru the joint and it immediately fell off when i bent the arm. I was able to fix it but overall the rest of the joints are very loose. I think the figures are made this way to avoid breaking but it limits display ability and mine still broke lol
Really hoping this is just a problem with your figure 😭 ceruledge is one of my favorite Pokémon and I love this figures design so so much, hoping when I pick mine up it works nicely
I've had this figure for a couple weeks so I got it out during the video to compare and yeah mine is a bit loose in the left elbow but no where near what you had, like I can full Naruto run with it. I think you just got unlucky.
I think he came with the stand because he has peg feet. $20 is a good price and even S.H Figurarts has QC issues. If the QC problems with this figure is really common than it's definitely an L.
I had problems with the mewtwo figure his arms keep on going down when I put him in certain poses. I couldn't even put him in his iconic pose from his base art
The Pokémon figures are so hit and miss. I enjoy picking them up when they go on sale but after the disappointment with mewtwo I’m hesitant to get more
6:19 "It's kind of a cool pose right?" Also Ceruledge, standing like a fork.
So, if youd ever want to give Ceruledge another shot, bandai is coming out with a model kit version of it in April, i do believe. I dont know what your personal take is on models, but I love them!
My heart sank when I saw this video, I thought it was about the model kit. Hopefully that comes out good.
YESS, I CANT WAIT!
i hope its good like most of the model kits cause i dont like the loose joints on this one
Honestly, as a customizer, I’m so relieved that the tightness was the disappointment, thought I would end up hating the figure, but it’s fixable
How is it fixable? cuz you can just glue it right we dont want it to be stiff... I dont know about the topic but would be awesome if you do a vid about it
@@shinyrowlet Have you ever heard of Kikki's or Doctor Dstar's fixer elixir? That would totally fox the figure's problems!
@@R-Blazer uhhhh thanks man I’ll take a look!

@@sirdork730 I hope you get lucky with other figures like these.
@@sirdork730 search dspiae BP-SP maybe it can fix the loose joints
@@sirdork730you should get a new one to see if you will get lucky

It’s so disappointing because looking at the total anime figures they can do soooo much better

Thanks Will! I should look into it. Glad to hear that they’re not all that bad 😆
Honestly, i like that figure even if the joints might be loose. Gotta be like fry and say, "Shut up and take my money!" Lol.

Ceruledge is definitely my favorite pokemon this gen, I went out of my way to get one in my first game, I named him Vegito.
My favorite form a few previous generations is Buzzwole
for me his joints aren't loose like yours
Dang! Must’ve just been me then 😆 your shot with him was awesome!
@@sirdork730 it's a shame you got one like that☹and thanks man it means a lot
I actually just did my first custom paint job on my ceruledge figure, just so it can be a shiny version and cause the shiny is terrible, it was really REALLY easy 😂
Fun fact he was designed by one of the guys who does the art for megaman
Idk tomohiro kitakaze worked on Megaman before ?
Isn't he just work for super robo taisen and later move to game freak ?
@ not sure I just remember during the scarlet and violet release seeing something like the guy who did the megaman zero designs worked on the design for them. I forgot what article it was.

I wanted to get the dragpult one and hope the babies were removable I doubt it 🤣🤣🤣
They are not removable unfortunately 😭 but it’s a great figure!!!
Ceruledge is definitely my favorite of gen 9
Yeah the loose joints are a QC issue, unfortunately. My greninja foot is loose and cant face forward on its own
Could always fix up loose joints with a bit of floor polish or super glue and keep moving the joint so it doesnt stick
The arm on mine snapped off not even an hour after opening it. It also has stress marks on the elbow joints, I barely even posed this guy.
This figure looks so awesome, it’s unfortunate you had so many problems with it, though I gotta ask arnt you nervous at all when you do any shots with fire
I can't wait for Blokees take on Ceruledge
Loose joints are one of the easiest figure fixes man, just put some wood polish in the joints and move them around a bit while it dries.
I actually picked this up a few weeks ago at Target and they had it on clearance for $13 no joke, now back up to $20. But mine didn’t have any joint issues like yours is having, what a bust 😢
Great steal!! Glad yours was better though 😆
Ceruledge and Armarouge will never not look like Megaman ZX/ZX Advent bosses to me.
Love Armorouge 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Ceruledge is definitely one of my favourite pokemon!! I’m very disappointed about it being a target exclusive as that makes it harder to get in Canada 😔
Still, I wouldn’t mind some loose joints as I think of my figures just like my other toys :P
Yeah translucent pieces would have made this so much better
That’s what I’m sayin!
One of the best looking Pokemon created, and I was super excited to get this figure and like you said it looks great, but the issue with the joints is such a letdown.
By the way amazing photo shoot well done

Do "Motored cyborg runner" next

Was thinking about getting this purely because I just love Ceruledge
I have a ceruledge too but its not that loose only the left arm is a bit wonky
Sorry to see the loose joints. I think Ceruledge looks cool, I just wish he was available in Canada.
Sick photo u got there!! but i feel like the water drops on his body is quite unnecessary? they throw off the scales too
I like fuecoco
Man I’m so sorry that you’re Ceruledge has loose joints but mine had good ones so I think you might have gotten a bad one but I feel the sadness of the loose joints cus this exact thing happened with my greninja
When I saw this in stores I was thinking about buying it but then I made a mistake watching this video because man I wanted to buy that
I don't have jazwares anything yet. Might get one.
My favourite from gen 9 is Meowscarada

could you put some nail polish in the joint to stiffen them up a bit? It's a remedy a lot of other collectors use on loose joints.
Pretty sure theres a model kit coming out so that one might be better
For whatever reason when i bought him he rang up $13. I didnt even bother with the stand, i just drilled holes at the bottom of his feet and use a peg stand. Joints wound up alright on my copy
Probably just a QC thing. As someone who collects Hasbro stuff on the regular, I always keep some joint tightener handy just in case. Still a shame though
Joint tightener? Please explain
@@heitorsales6659look up “Kiki” 👍 It’s essentially Matt glue varnish, it thickens an area of joint to increase the friction. You could also just use nail polish (clear Matt) but kiki’s is better 👍

It’s unfortunate that the quality bug bit you hard, but it is an issue that has a very easy solution to fixing it
This is soo sick i love the shot as always jared🔥🔥🔥 i would also give him a L
Imagine reworking and glueing the joints , giving it a sick stand, and making it a statue, that would be sick tbh
I liked this figure overall but i ordered it online and one of the arms basically fell off immediately after opening it.

really wished this figure had better hip articulation could of made this figure so much better
i luv ceruledge i wanna buy sum pokemon figures but is there stands for them?
All of the figures from this line come with stands!
Hi sir dork love your vids
I've had this figure for a couple weeks so I got it out during the video to compare and yeah mine is a bit loose in the left elbow but no where near what you had, like I can full Naruto run with it. I think you just got unlucky.
How long have y’all been here
I've been watching him for 3 or 4 years now
I just got recommended his video.
New
10 seconds
think a month. watching him from time to time when hes recommend
He looks like a mega man character because he was created by a mega man guest artist haha
1:32 watching him praise them after we saw him trash them in the intro is like watching D-16 and Orion’s interactions in transformers one
That's such a shame! Was really looking forward to this figure :( Sad that it's not that great
Seems like most everyone else who got it didn’t have the same problem! So he might still be worth picking up for you!
@ Oh ok! Thanks for the tip!
Ill think about it 😁
ceruledge can't do his signature pose...
im holding out hope that because we got rayquaza we could get an origin forme giratina
Action finger… action figure…
I love ceruladge
And this kids is why you use ball joints instead of trashy hinges lol
coolest ssheesh
Mine was overly stiff but I still love the poses i was able to get out of him
My other favorite pokemon from the newest generation is sprigatito and their evolutions
I think he came with the stand because he has peg feet. $20 is a good price and even S.H Figurarts has QC issues. If the QC problems with this figure is really common than it's definitely an L.
Mine is articulating really good!!!
they're making a model kit out of them
Not popular opinion But I love these Future Paradox Pokemon
Cerul isn't a paradox pokemon, but a figure of Iron Valiant would be cool.
@user-7vs6 i knoe cerul is not paradox, He asked us what other gen 9 pokemon we like
@@dex_reanimacja2582 oh, sorry bout that.
Mine wasnt loose AT ALL. had to heat him to get the leg rotation going..
I had problems with the mewtwo figure his arms keep on going down when I put him in certain poses. I couldn't even put him in his iconic pose from his base art
i’m collecting the figures that I get
I felt the same way about the ZD toys of venom looks good but just a disappointment in my eyes
You should do the mega man fig
WIDNES
"it looks peak whats wrong with it...oh" yeah that doesn't really matter to me. i aint gonna play with it. it looks of quality.
We’ll find this figure in Ross watch
in my favourites I have the sprigatito line
The Pokémon figures are so hit and miss. I enjoy picking them up when they go on sale but after the disappointment with mewtwo I’m hesitant to get more
The slim characters have very loose joints, like greninja and it aggravates me to no end
mine is just a bit loose, so mine is a W
They selling joint strengthening pen for figure joint maybe that will work
From this generation? Ogerpon.
my only issue is that the shoulder pieces are very fragile
🔥💜⚔️💜🔥
Mine is loose as well
Dang 😭😭
I own this one an mines joints stay stable
What's W and L?
A win or a loss 😆
