Slightly Disturbing Figures That Actually Sell


Billy Herrington!
So Manry! =))


Well, this random post will talk about two specific figures who are not accepted by all but still sells like hell.

So, sometimes, there are things like "wth is this sh*t!?" moments when we see something from a favorite line or a favorite manufacturer and it actually appears really disturbing at first. Lol, well, ironically, "disturbing" as they seem, they're the ones that sell big time. Am I kidding? Of course not, lol, they actually sell, REALLY sell.

First of the two I'm gonna discuss would be Billy Herrington from the figma line. Well, the first time it came up, I was really disturbed by it. Why? First, Billy's a gay pornstar, and second, his figma has this face that looks like he's almost at climax, loooool. See below.



So... how exactly did this guy sell? Simply put, people KNOW when to buy figures that are extremely good for the lulz. Billy's other face is epic in a sense that with the large quantity of female figures manufactured out there, he's bound to do something else when the green minds get an insane idea (pairing this with any QB Revo + Revo Nanael's spilled milk = dun dun dunnn) Actually, Billy sold for me in the long run, a hell lot of images floating around 2chan, figure/gk and the like captured me for wanting this really weird figure. And am I really sure he sells? Of course, if he didn't, Max wouldn't have released THREE MORE Billy's in different versions!

Okay Billy's done and now going to the second SCARY AND DISTURBING figure. The shit here is that he's from a kid movie =)) So who's this character? No one else but WOODY! The very same Woody from Disney's Toy Story movies. So, why on earth is he disturbing and scary? Around a year after Billy's reign this guy succeeds his throne, basically because of what Kaiyodo included in their sci-fi revo Woody. A really scary "RAEP" face, yes, seriously... See below:



So how he sells? It's pretty much the same as Billy but he has more effect into doing the perverted roles, that face and rolling eyes, that's just sick when fallen to the hands of the imaginative. In fact, Figure/GK, 2chan and the like are now spammed with NSFW Woody pics, even doing with "things" with Billy O_o As far as I'm concerned, a lot of my friends are interested in getting this scary figure. So with that and the fact that of the all the sci-fi revos at amiami, he's damn SOLD OUT!!!! LOOOL!

But, of course, if there are Disturbing figures that sell, there are also those which doesn't like Sci-fi Revoltech's "Buttman", I mean, Batman. Really disturbing proportions disturbing Christian Bale head and an ugly cape :))



Anyway, ending my post now. Images are from Sci-fi Revo website and Good Smile website.
