Irwin Android 19 to scale with Figuarts? Yes or no? 🤔 19 is short in the Anime, so looks like it'd scale well with Figuarts.

solubletoast Irwin Android 19 is a reasonable size with Figuarts. The HSCF Android 19 is similar in size, but has no articulation.

Coincidentally, I saw this picture in a Facebook group today that includes both a bootleg of HSCF Android 19 and the Irwin Android 19.

I have the HSCF Android 19. It has way better detail. It’s pretty expensive these days though

Yeah, the price of most HSCF figures have gone up a lot on ebay. They made some good stuff occasionally, but their scaling was inconsistent. I can't really think of any HSCF that a Figuarts collector would likely want other than Android 19. Maybe Kuwi/Cui, but he'd be a bit small.

How does the Irwin Android 16 scale with the figuarts? I'm thinking of getting him and 19 since I probably won't be able to get the figuarts one (16 since 19 doesn't have one obviously lol) and I'm not really sure if he'll scale well

I can't give you a direct comparison right now, but I do own both figure and can say with some certainty that he's relatively to scale with the figuarts version. Although, he's still way too small to be considered accurate to the anime.

Aquamarina, you won't be happy with the Irwin Android 16 at all in my opinion. He's painted great, but he's far too small to go with Figuarts figures. I don't have any comparison pics that might help you a lot, but here's one I saved that shows Irwin 16, Irwin model kit 16 (who you might be ok with, particularly if you are a good painter), and HSCF 16. The Irwin model kit of 16 (and Dr. Gero) are very uncommon, so you'd need a lot of luck to find them. Here's an old comparison I made while trying to figure out if Dragon Stars Berzerk Kale was too big for my 5" scale collection or not. Android 16 by Irwin is too small even for 5 inch scale. I haven't replaced him in my collection simply because his paint job is phenomenal. The Figuarts one is probably better for my collection, but if I remember right, I've seen him in pictures on DBF with other figures, and I thought he might be too large overall, and I was annoyed his legs were so short. For that matter... I could probably just lengthen the Irwin 16's legs and arms and be even happier with him... but that won't help his size among Figuarts figures though. I'm surprised we haven't seen a Dragon Stars Android 16. If one was made, he'd probably scale really well with my collection and maybe yours too... Now I'm sidetracked... I wonder why I've never seen a Figuarts collector with Irwin model kit Dr. Gero? Via this video he's a lot bigger than the regular Irwin one. He arguably looks better than the Creatures Dr. Gero as well... or he would after some work with Apoxie Sculpt and a fancy paint job.

Thank you so much for all the info! ^ ^ Your collection is amazing! ^ ^ Yeah I'm surprised Dragon Stars haven't made him too, he seems like the perfect release for the line

Late to the party and maybe you're looking for an articulated Android 16, but this one I believe is HQDX and is pretty much the perfect SHF scale (again there's some variying size in the animé but I've seen Android 18 sitting perched on his shoulder in some illustrations and he's the right scale for that).

Just received my Jacksdo Bulma Airship today, it's SHF scale as advertised, but man it takes so much space. I'm not 100% sure yet I'll keep it in that shelf, I may move it to the top of the cabinet.

That semi-perfect Cell Figurise is real awesome too!

Hi everyone, I've grabbed the small statue of Goku and Chichi driving away just married and I think it scales pretty nicely with the collection. I compared Vegeta SHF and Goku's ears, and Goku's are maybe 15-20% larger but I also account for DB's designs that had heads a little larger than DBZ, so overall it fits well for me. I'll definitely add them to the very end of my DB collection since that's just before DBZ begins.
