Tekken (Series)

[Mr EliteL]

Yes, that does fit quite well. The running by the Tekken Force dude towards the end of the corridor was great.

Random question; does T7 have the best customization or would you say one of the earlier games did it better? I remember seeing something a bit ago about how T7 didn't really do customization too well plus I'm just curious since we're talking about customizing.

[Mr EliteL]

Yeah I'd say T7's customisation is the worst out of the...four games. I always forget T5 had customisation, think T6 had the most options but I delved into Tag2's the most then T7's where T7 had the least options overall and most of all, garbage hairstyle options.

[Moonface]

I never actually dived into T6's customization much thinking back on it because I got turned off the idea of customizing anyone when I saw how bad load times would get facing characters that had been customized because of T6's awful idea of loading character models in the loading screen itself. x.x

Other than Lili, who else would you say is depicted as a more closer-to-life human character in Tekken?
Also apparently Lili is from Monaco. I always thought she was French. o.o I know Monaco is literally next to France which explains her language, I just didn't expect her nationality to have been placed into somewhere that specific compared to just using France.

[Mr EliteL]

I don't remember almost any of the outifts I made for T6 either, let alone T5, only one I know I did was make a green and black version of King's attire, and did similarly in Tag 2 and T7. I'm kinda curious to find out what else I did in T6's customisation now actually.

Quite a lot of the female fighters really, maybe ruling out Nina, Anna, obviously not Kazumi, Angel, Unknown, Kunimitsu, Master Raven (them ninjas vanish yo), Zafina is out too because of her hand fusing with Azazel. For the males Shaheen, Eddy, Lee, Lei, Law, Miguel, Steve, Ganryu, Bruce, Baek, Hwoarang, Dragunov and Leeroy.

@Mr EliteL: I forget if I showed you this before or if you're already aware of it: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/V...174351?o=4

[Mr EliteL]

I was not aware of those, thanks for showing me. As much as I think they're cool, I have a personal rule to never get posable action figures, since I dislike noticing the joints. Do like how how much poses were shown off in the preview images though, they look neat, especially King's as he's shown to be delivering moves to Kazuya. Although dang, Kazuya isn't even listed there yet, only King, Devil Jin and Paul so far on that shop site.

[Moonface]

Yeah I feel you on the noticeable joints being a turn-off on posable figures, it's not something I like either. Although I have to give credit that that King statue does a very good job of blending the joints in, and it helps that his attire includes elbow pads and such that go over the joints on his arms and legs to hide those ones. It's really only his torso that has a noticeable one, and he's also the only Tekken figure on that site with such a joint, likely due to his wrestling moveset requiring it.

I went looking to see what other King figures there are in existence out of curiosity, and learned that Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Tournament had a whole line of action figures produced:

• Tekken 3 - Epoch Action Figures
  
• Tekken Tag Tournament - Epoch Action Figures
  

The quality of the figures is....questionable if you ask me but I expect they were probably pretty cheap to buy at the time and it's not like action figures made in the 90's were often very good looking.

[Mr EliteL]

Me and my siblings actually got the Tekken 3 figures, but didn't get Forest Law or Devil Jin. My bro got Heihachi and Paul, sister Nina, Anna and Xiaoyu, I got Jin, King, Yoshimitsu and True Ogre. Really wish we didn't play with them as they got slightly damaged, plus my True Ogre lost it's wings.

[Moonface]

@Mr EliteL: You still have those figures about? Don't think I've ever noticed them anywhere in your room/house before.

[Mr EliteL]

I have mine about still, my bro must've taken his ones as I don't have them, not sure what sister has done with her's. Mine are up on my high shelf in my room, King lying down as he's a bit too tall and so is True Ogre, but Jin and Yoshimitsu are on their stands.

[Moonface]

Ah, maybe that's why I never noticed them before. Plus with how cramped everything is in your room it tends to be hard for particular things to stand out, especially if they're not big/prominent.

[Mr EliteL]

Ah, my King isn't too big as there's a large space above Jin and Yoshimitsu, he's lying down because the foot hold in his stand is broken so it won't hold him up properly. His tail is slightly broken at the connection point too, also Yoshimitsu's swords are slightly broken too, a couple more examples of the damages my figures have.

Content that was here is now in the Tekken 8 thread.

For why I came here at this moment, it was because Heihachi isn't really dead and is the next character that just got announced! *shot*

No, I was checking the Tekken subreddit to see if any news actually had been announced since it's been a while (I'm guessing we don't get anything until after this network test so people don't bitch that newly announced characters aren't included in the test) and this was the first thing I saw on the feed: https://www.reddit.com/r/Tekken/comments...at_a_joke/
I've discovered T4 has quite a fair amount of jank lately but this one isn't one I had seen before. I'm curious now if that can happen in later Tekken games or if it got fixed for T5.
Also this is cursed: https://i.redd.it/have-you-ever-fought-a...d6af8bf92c

[Mr EliteL]

Haha, yeah the walls could KO your own character doing a move into it. Steve with the win pose makes the clip better.  Also didn't particularly like that King costume, Armor King has it too, although the top half is fine if they're wearing something on their legs.
