User blog:ChishioKunrin/The RWBY figurines

Not the action figures, but the figurines.

Back when they were first being released, Monty tweeted that he chose action poses for the figures that would make it feel like they took a frame right out of each girl's trailer and included a photo of the Ruby and Weiss figures. He then tweeted an image with screenshots from the Red and White Trailers.

So, he really did take frames right out of the trailers, for all four of the figurines. The base of each figurine even reflects the trailers.

I made a comment on the RWBY Merchandise page pointing this out several months ago, but I've decided to kinda make a blog with comparisons and such, just for fun. Gotta find something to do during the hiatus, right?

Ruby
This one's pretty obvious, especially since Monty showed us which pose he picked from the Red Trailer. The Ruby figurine's base is even snow with rose petals in it.

However, the Ruby figurine has Ruby's rose symbol on her belt, rather than the cross.

Weiss
This one is also obvious, due to Monty showing us which pose he picked. Though, the figure is looking down and doesn't have blood on her face. The figure's necklace is being blown to the side, whereas in the White Trailer, Weiss' necklace was just part of her texture, rather than being a separate model. In Volume 2, her and Sun's necklaces are separate models now.

She's crouched on broken metal or stone or something.

Blake
Blake's figurine is her pose at the end of the Black Trailer, right after saying goodbye to Adam, just as she starts drawing her sword to cut the link. The stand that she's on is even reminiscent of the train.

Yang
Yang's is kind of hard to figure out because she goes into that pose a lot throughout the Yellow Trailer. My best guess is when she lets out a shell right after punching Junior, since her mouth seems open at that part. I also guessed right after she defeats Miltia, but while the pose is similar, it's not close enough.

The stand she's on is cracked glass panels like the dance floor, and there are shotgun shells on the floor.
