Otaku Dan: The Life of an Anime Fan

In the vast world of anime figure collecting, male figures are a minority. finding out a male anime figure is being released is like seeing a picture of big foot, you think it's cool but you doubt it is real.


I think that male figures are not that popular is because the figure companies know that they will not make a profit. So, was they do is that they make statues or cold cast figures and sell them at a very expensive price at a limited supply. The only male figures that will sell at bishounen characters or Kamina from Gurren Lagann.
I have been seeing in the last 2 years a trend of male figures being made of older characters like Seiya, the guys from Fist of the North Star, Cobra, and the guys from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. It seems that these figures are being made because of the nostalgic value to them.

The figures in the Picture above are the only male Figures I have. I only bought the one in the middle while the other two I got them for free. What are your thoughts on male anime figures?
