Pardon my ignorance, but why are the Metroid ones lacking in comparison with the Zelda figures?

I really like the Sheik one, I don't know if I'd be willing to pay that much though..

Hmm.

 

When I saw the newsitems of those collectibles on this site, I thought the designs looked terrible for the Zelda series. I have mixed feelings now I see actual pictures. I took a look on their site (first4figures) and their other work doesn't look spectacular as well, at least in my opinion.

 

The Metroid figures look good, but I think their design lend themselves more for good looking figures. I think the Feirce Deity Link looks awful, but to my surprise, I thought Sheik was pretty decent. I'm still curious what they they all look like, when they're finished though.

 

They should've gone to some Japanese companies for their figures though, they're good at that stuff (check out your favorite animes on http://www.hlj.com for example), or if they want an American company, McFarlane. Their stuff looks excellent.

 

Still, I hope these things sell well, hopefully we even see more merchandise in the future. I was looking for Metroid merchandise some time ago, and the only thing I could find was a horrible Samus action figure. There don't seem to be many collectible figures of Nintendo characters.

I'll probably buy a few, but not that Fierce Deity Link one. God, that design has always seemed terrible to me. I suppose it'd be something to review on my Eurofusion blog if I can afford them at these prices.
