Max Factory is going to release the figma 042 Golgo 13 ( ゴルゴ13 ) action figure from the longest running adult manga “Golgo 13″ ( ゴルゴ13 ). Will be released in August 2009. Around 150mm tall, 3,619 yen. Bundled with Golgo 13 theme di:stage.

Another scam from Max Factory. You cannot just buy your favorite Golog 13 figma alone, you have to get the Max Factory newest design figure stand “di:stage” too. This Golgo 13 figma set is bundled with the Golgo 13 theme di:stage (fyi, the Golgo 13 theme thingy is just paper craft) which only cost 552 yen if you buy it alone. That means the Golgo 13 figure cost 3,619-552=3,067 yen which is so over priced.

I really hate Max Factory/GSC. I really don’t like how they marketing stuff. They always make us like a fool and force us to pay extra to get the figures that we want. We all know it’s a trap but still we all fall for it. And they’re also the reason why the PVC figure are so $$$ nowadays. It’s really hard to believe we need to pay extra 50% for a single figure compared to 2 years ago. I hate you Max Factory/GSC! But still I’ll keep buying figures for them, I hate myself. XD

——Description from Manufacturer——

From ‘Golgo 13′, a manga and anime series that began back in the 1960s, comes a figma of the professional assassin, Duke Togo.

Using the smooth yet poseable joints of figma, you can act out various scenes.
A flexible plastic is used for the suit, allowing proportions to be kept without compromising posability.
Poses of him aiming his rifle can easily be taken using the joints placed in the neck.
Two weapons are included – the well-known M16 as well as the 38-caliber revolver. The M16 can also be separated and stored in the included attache case.
In addition to the normal face, a grinning face with clenched teeth is included.
Various hand parts are included, including a hand to hold his cigar, as well as hands to hold his weapons in various ways.
In addition to the normal figma stand, the new generation display base ‘di:stage: Basic Set’ will be sold together with Golgo 13. A paper vignette in the image of a motel and speech bubbles are also included to really recreate the unique world of Golgo 13.
