The bankruptcy of figure maker Taki Corporation has been confirmed – rather than wondering why, those confronted by their figure portfolio are wondering why it took so long:
Their figure business is reportedly being picked up by another company, so their current and future operations will not be immediately affected.

What's wrong with the first figure?¿?¿ :S what were they thinking
Mediocrity rules! Except in this case, apparently.
1st figure was like gonna talk while heads spins. *scary* >.<
First pic = nighmare fuel.
Am I the only one who thought of that little girl who got possessed in 'The Exorcist' upon seeing the first pic?
That scene with the 360-degree head-turn is parodied well in anime form through that disfigured figure, lol.
I think the first one is great :)
(reminds me on this one http://img2.sankakustatic.com/wp-content/gallery/safe-misc-iv/saber-figure-chinese.jpg)
It would be just funny to have her on your desk when working on computer and she stares at you.
I think she's nice :)
haha, we better buy her before she gets rare
The poses on their figures appear awkward.
Some of those are not so bad.
fuck, that's some creepy shit.
o_o
It's Japanese Linda Blair!
THE POWER OF MOE COMPELS YOU!!!
*shudder* That first one is just creepy.
Dear me, Ma-ryan-senpai has turned quite fugly...
i loooove the first one. who is she/where can i find it? is it afforadable?
They did that 1/2.5 Cattleya statue.
Meh, they look passable. (though the first one certainly is creepy, lol)
hmm still to bad for them. good luck in your next ventures though
and nothing of value was lost.
these look awful
The first one is kinda creepy o.O
These are downright scary. I bet that they're made of children's tears and evil.
Heh, one of the pictures didn't load for me and was blacked out. I thought it was to censor for my delicate eyes but it turned out to be Eruru.
taki is probably one of the worst figure manufacturers on the market. the quicker their crap gets liquidated the better.
No HD.
Artefact, I think you misspelled 'Tacky'.
LOL, nice!
Ah yes Taki Corp.
I remember them for all those fugly ikkitousen figures.
Every time a new one came out i was like, "Who's going to buy this shit?"
Even funnier was the amount of $$$ they charged for those half baked figures. Worst price-quality ratio ever.
actually, I think there are some other figure makers that are at least in the same level (of mediocrity), like Kaitendoh and Taito...
well, I won't miss Taki, so... I only hope Alter and GSC stop delaying figures every month... u___u
Natural selection at work. Or something like that.
agreed
Yeah. For producing those they certainly deserve a Darwin Award.
Natural selection leads the survivors STRONGER and BETTER..!
*stares at his Jill Valentine RE5 BSAA figure*
At making PVC figures, that is...
LOL at the Albert Wesker reference!
The human (or PVC figure) race requires judgement!
That is some China quality designs there.
The To Heart 2 figurine in image 1 & 2 connects back to back, arms hooked to the To Heart 2 figurine in picture 7.
That should allow the figurine's pose to make a little more sense.
I doubt you know what is quality design
QUALITY that never goes out of style...
Quality that never goes into style.
Nothing can prevent my love for Eruruu-sama~
yeah that one was actually a good figure!
I understand what you meant here, but actually all the japanese figures are made in china, even the best ones
well, is there anything which isn't made in china, I wonder...
I think my clothes are made in Vietnam
You're an idiot if you think all Japanese figures are made in China. Japanese people make some of the most beautiful and highly-detailed figures in the world. Sadly, these ones aren't any of them.
Jokes on you Falcon.
I have a few figures I would deem high quality, and they were indeed made in China. Not everything from there turns out bad.
uhh... the sculptors are paid and live in japan however once the prototype model is done its sent to china to be produced... so technically its still made in china
I have a few Japanese figures and while, yes, they are designed in Japan, they where produced in China. I have a Chrono Crusade figure, a Holo SD figure and a Miku SD figure, all made in Japan. I also have a U.S. released Final Fantasy figure, also made in China. Anything that was made in Japan you might pay out the @$$ for, otherwise it's between $5-200.
lolis arent made in china
the figurines, look so... chinese O_o
actually china make a lot of loli...
*stare at world biggest population*
yes they make a lot of loli...
"actually china make a lot of loli..."
Not anymore, they don't. :(
http://www.sankakucomplex.com/2010/08/10/chinese-babies-developing-breasts/
they still produce a lot of loli... just remove the DFC type... what a sad day...
they produce loli slave too
oh wait that was north korea
It's only mass produced in China. So it's more like China quality design.
shoes are from thailand for example ; O
AHAHAHAHA SHO FUNNEE.
That joke didn't even make sense you know?
Worthy of having their own "Figure Failure Gallery".
But I wouldn't risk the eye cancer tho.....
