this is so RAD, I very much need this, but then I saw the price and wept

The only one that exists is the SH Figuarts but that's just a one design of many from the character's 47 years of being published. 50th anniversary will be in 2022 so I hope that brings forth something I desire something like the look in Cyborg 009 VS Devilman.
We can hope so. Depending how this figure will do.

The same applies to the Cyborg 009 VS Devilman which only has a statue of him &it's one of his best updated redesigns. The Crybaby version would've been cool since his hands are humongous & the tail is extremely longer than usual.

That's because he is naked. In most adaptations, Devilman tends to have abare chest while having fur from the waist down which covers his junk. Devilman wears superhero briefs in theToeitokusatsu Devilman 1972 anime. However, other demons & devilmen in the Devilman series are usually naked such as Sirene/Sileneor Devilman Lady.

Devilman has so many cool alternate designs & variant characters& I'm annoyed that most figures are in a style that I don't like. I would like to see these someday: Akuma Kishi & Devilman Saga.

I never liked the Devilman interpretations from the 1990's McFarlanish toylineor the 2000's Amon Darkside of Devilman manga. It's cool to revisit a vintage figure & update it but Iprefera different look & color. Lately, Devilman figures have been stuck on that edgy phase look such as the Devilman Variable Action Heroes.
