I need that Brocken Jr in my life.
>>5281260
Wait, when was The Ninja announced? Oh shit and its an exclusive, booooo.
Is this the only exclusive so far? Hopefully Shura and Brocken Jr are regular releases.
has bluefin explained why kinnikuman isn't supported in the US?
>>5281391
Maybe they can't get the license? I'm not sure who actually holds it at the moment.
>>5281391
Considering how frequently the figures go on discount in Japan,w here the series was huge,w hat makes you think they're eager to bring the same to the US?
>>5281432
they seem to be going full steam ahead with quicker releases than dbz so it has to be some what well. I really just don't want to prepay for ninja at NY.

http://tamashii.jp/item_schedule/
I know it's subjective, but what effects set would people recommend I pick up next? I have the orange explosion and red flames, I'm sort of thinking about getting the lightning one but I can't really think of anything in particular I'd use it with.
It's toku related, but I figure I'd ask in here since it's more focused on SHF
The arm to my Kamen Rider Mach is pretty loose, but it's not up in the upper shoulder joint, but the lower part, where the arm can be taken off. How can I make it stay better, for lack of better terms? It's fine when I'm not posing it, but it's pretty annoying to have to keep having to push it back in when I twist the arm.
I just bought the first edition Cardcaptor Sakura figure (The one in the pink dress) what do you guys think of her? Is she shit?
>>5283178
I got her for $15 from Amazon. I honestly wouldn't have paid more than that for her though. She's not a bad figure, but I don't like the way her skirt was stylised at all, and preferred the accessories that came with the Figma.
To be honest, I mostly bought her for the extra faceplate and Kero, to go with the second opening outfit release (which is a pain in the ass to pose, but really cute), as well as the little photo cards to use as backdrops.
>>5283187
Hmm, I can't get her from Amazon so I'll have to HLJ it. I guess if I like her I'll get the second one and the figma. Normally only bother with Kamen Riders but Cardcaptor was the first anime I ever watched.
>>5283131
very tiny amount of super glue on the arm part around that peg and you just rotate the arm back and forth to spread it and it will make the hold tighter and be more permanent than future shine.
>>5283197
It's all down to preference, really. I know a lot of people on the SHF threads preferred her SHF release to the Figma, and there are heaps of comparison photos of the two out there if you only want to get one.
>>5283197
>>5283207
Oh. And for the record, I think the yellow outfit is cuter than the pink for the SHF release. Plus, Kero is in a more dynamic pose that works better with the figure than the standing-on-the-floor-looking-sorta-stern thing they did with the first one's release.
>>5283200
Ah, that totally worked. Thanks, anon
>>5281391
Because the franchise was fucked up every way imaginable when it was released in the US.
The original anime/manga was too violent and filled with too much shit that could never fly in the US (like the Nazi swastika for the one character).
The original mini-figures were released as MUSCLES as a result, with no media tie-in and pretty much NO backstory or even NAMES for the character, save for Kinnikuman and Buffaloman, who were given new names as the token leaders for the good and bad guy side.
When Ultimate MUSCLE aired, all of the merch basically TANKED at retail. Which is ironic as hell, as the cartoon was one of the top rated shows 4Kids dubbed and aired on Fox. But the success led to the bullshit rape of One Piece, as 4Kids basically were forced to buy One Piece to get Toei to finance an American exclusive second season of Ultimate MUSCLE.
And even then, the cartoon vanished off the face of the Earth. No DVD release save for a couple of episodes that are long long OOP and IIRC Viz buried the manga and discontinued it after only a handful of volumes, which are also OOP.
As such, America is a horrible place to try and release them since no one has any nostalgia related connection to the characters and in the case of Ultimate MUSCLE, the show was quickly forgotten with zero cult following as far as being a flavor of the month for casuals.
>>5283234
ok thanks for the info, I remember it being on 4 kids but wasn't one of the shows I watched. I just want an easier way to get the ninja.
How big are the Kinnikuman Figuarts? Normal size or GI Joe size?
>>5283260
you're thinking of the mini revos, the figuarts are the same size as other figuarts plus if they're a large character they're bigger.
>Yu knoe?
>>5283234
>Viz buried the manga and discontinued it after only a handful of volumes, which are also OOP
On a positive note, Viz did complete the localization of the Nisei manga... years later. oops.
Ramenman would be the bigger issue than Brocken, imo. With Brocken, at least the swastika can be edited out + remove the clips with the Nazi audience and all. Hard to do anything with Ramenman, though. It's completely understandable why they didn't bother localizing Kinnikuman in NA.
I know d-arts is dead but do you think they will maybe re release the Mega man X figures? I see type 2 zero a lot and for a good price so...maybe? I'm kicking myself for not getting Vile when I saw him
>>5283802
You want it so you can recreate every single Ippo match ever again and again?
>>5284638
I personally want Takamura
>>5284638
I just want an ippo figure with his massive elephant trunk
>>5284638
You mean you don't want to put every tamashii effect part around him to emulate MULTIDIMENSIONAL DEMPSEY ROLL?
>>5283807
Hellsing has Nazis why can't Kinnikuman?
>>5284771
One show is for a mature audience, the other is for kids.
>>5284771
One of these series is explicitly aimed at adults and often shoved into the adult section of the bookstore with shrinkwrap. The other isn't.
I was hoping that some kind anon could do a size comparison pic between Alphamon and hopefully Imperialdramon. Thanks in advance!
>>5284771
Kinnikuman ran in the late 70s early 80s. Would not fly back then
Slightly off-topic but Kinnikuman related. What's the name of this character? He was my favorite figure from the MUSCLE toyline but I've never been able to find out what his Kinnikuman name was.
>>5283900
I think X actual has a pretty good shot at getting reissued eventually given that Zero did. Full Armor X might not though.
looks damn good
>>5287325
From what I found that's MUSCLE #182 Mysterious Partner, part of the Kinnikuman Big Body Team. The list I found claims that it has the same name in both the US and Japanese lines but I can't find any other information on it beyond that.
Ordered the Tuxedo Mask figure for an Xmas gift for my brother during the HLJ sale cause he has all the previous figures and I know he'll be broke for months.
Reckon he'll like it? I don't know much about the series but from the episodes I saw as a kid I remember him being sorta important and cool.
>>5287445
Can't wait for the lewds.
>>5287621
If your brother is collecting the series, he'll love it purely to complete his set. The figure isn't a bad one overall, but I hate the bloody hat. I know it's accurate to the TV show, but it looked so stupid then and it looks even stupider in 3D form.
... the rose and cane are pretty great, though. And I'm surprised by how good the cape looks given that it's jointed. I expected the seams to be really obvious and ugly, but they're not bad.
>>5287627
I can't wait for the hard swaps with black widow

r-right?
>tfw grievous probably will be webshop exclusive too
>>5290861
I hope not, I feel super uncomfortable prepaying for things months in advance
>>5290868
Yo man, i had to prepay for an exclusive not too long ago, and at first I hated it but I gotta tell you, it feels real damn nice knowing I'm going to get those figures in a few months and I don't have to worry about the payment at all.
>>5290177
>>all those exclusives
Why don't you just make the world tamashii exclusive
>>5290278
perfect. I forgot these guys existed!! now that is a dam good choice!!!
>>5290177
Wait so the basic FO trooper is going to be exclusive? Something that should be geared towards army building and buying multiples?
>>5291701
The regular basic trooper is a general release, and has been up for preorder everywhere for months....in fact, it comes out in like a month.
>>5292030
Looks like they're coming in April. That's a hell of a lot sooner than I was expecting.
>>5292035
My god
>>5292047
Yeah, oddly, I think revoltech won with him
>>5292049
>Yeah, oddly, I think revoltech won with him
except that it's practically a revolmini and can barely stand on its own. I think the thing bugging me about it the most is the skintone, looks like a zombie-esque pallor
Fujiko looks great though, instabuy.
>>5292060
Yeah, like I don't regret buying my Revo Lupin but it's way too short for me. Also I can't stand his ugly ass shoulder joints, and his legs constantly pop apart at the knees which is really frustrating.
>>5292075
oh you mean you don't like bare plastic for skin tone?
>>5292030
>>5292033
>No hairy hands
>>5292035

I'll buy this just for headswaps.
>>5292030
oh wow, I honestly didn't think they'd make it out the door.
Pikachu looks hilariously terrible.
>>5292138
That right hand looks like a dick from that angle.
>>5292138
They're actually releasing this.
wow.
>>5292138
>Pikachu looks hilariously adorable
Fixed that for you!
So is there a chance the figuarts Bruce Lee will be taking more orders? I was unable to preorder it.
I suspect I'm boned.
>>5292138
I don't know why they even bothered giving him wrist articulation, it looks so fucking stupid.
>>5292203
Maybe you can pop the hands off.
>>5292204
Probably can, but then you'd still have the holes at the end. Would have been better if the hands were sculpted onto the arms and just have two pairs of arms to swap.
Pikachu looks cute enough. I like it better than the preliminary pics. And it's Pikachu, so I wonder how well it'll sell. More Figuarts Pokemon would be great.
>>5292030
I nées par Lupin x4
>>5292035
She looks so much better than the Lupin.
Some sculptor was clearly being guided by their boner.
>>5292138
>>5292140
>>5292142
What happened here? How did this make it all the way to promo shots? This looks like shitty plamo.
It's not like they can't do cartoony mascots with similar proportions. Look at Doraemon. He came out great. The face proportions on this are totally off model, and the arms/wrists look like a nightmare.
Anons, a question. The Ninja. Worth preordering now or do you think he will be cheaper on the after market? I am conflicted as he is quite expensive, especially for the sad, weak beaver money. About $80 for a single figure. So... Worth the risk to wait or no?
>>5292501
I would say yeah. All the Kinnikuman figuarts bombed with the exception of Warsman. I, too am dealing in beaver money and want Ninja. I'm going to wait it out. Here's hoping.
>>5292648
>All the Kinnikuman figuarts bombed
wat
Dude, get your facts straight.
>>5292648
>All the Kinnikuman figuarts bombed
Champa and Vados when? I want to recreate this.
>>5292648
>The only one that went out of stock shortly after release is Warsman, that means the line bombed!
No, not really.
>>5293157
If you really want it just buy it. Exclusives rarely go down much in price anyway.
>>5293157
Honestly, it depends on what your budget is and how much you like the character. This is the first one I'm passing on for now, but I'll likely pick him up if I find him for decent on Mandarake down the road. It's kinda hard to say for the first exclusive release of a newish line. But man, it would be nice to have the whole squad...
>>5281260
Is it possible to get replacement parts for figuarts at all? (I am expecting to pay)
>>5293867
Bandai Japan only really deals with Japanese buyers. Your best bet is to contact whoever you bought it from and get an exchange (or replacement part if they're ok with that).
>>5293880
But I broke it so long ago, when I first started collecting and was a hamhand. I've sort of repaired her (cure happy) but it's pretty bad. I thought maybe since she's not worth too much a seller would sell me a replacement part from their overstock? I don't know that it's worth buying a whole other figure.
>>5293887
She was on sale at HLJ a few weeks ago. She'll most likely be on sale again near Christmas at a better discount.
You might as well keep an extra on hand to harvest joints if any other figures break.
>>5293950
Okay, if the customs general offers nothing better than what I tried I will! I wish I'd known she was on sale then.

I honestly hope this Pikachu kills off this line now, Venasaur was a good enough indication they should stop.
>>5296791
>Venasaur was a good enough indication they should stop
The fuck are you talking about? Venusaur is a way better figure than Blastoise.
>>5296897
Agreed. Venusaur was surprisingly articulated.
He sold pretty poorly, though.

Everybody and their moms choose Charmander or Squirtle, how is choosing Bulbasaur being a casual?
>>5296939
Special in Gen 1 was so broken you could just ember Brock's pokemon to death. By Misty there were plenty of grass types to use and Pikachu if you were tenacious enough to look for one early on.
>>5296968
Bulbasaur was reccomended in every guide as a beginner's choice to get through the game early faster. Charmander was supposed to be the hard option(which is silly, because he thrives in Viridian forest and you can easily walk out of there a few levels shy of Charmelon without trying.
Is there anything that would prevent a deal with Capcom to make Street Fighter figures? They've already done Mega Man
>Eri Ayase out yet?
>Still no Figuarts Pokemon Trainer that comes with Charmander, bulbasaur or Squirtle depending on where you order it from
It's like they hate money.
I hate waiting for a confirmation email from mandy when you're hoping you got a pretty fast selling item. I hope I got that cap!
>>5296791
But random fire chicken is okay?
Really hope that the Ranma 1/2 line sells well. I really want boy Ranma, Akane, and Shampoo, and really hope that we eventually get Ryoga, Mousse and Ukyo.
http://tamashii.jp/item_schedule/201512/
Kylo Ren and First Order Trooper are releasing on Dec 18th
Buffaloman is Dec 12th
>>5297852
At least that loosely tied into the games at the time.
>>5298605
I'm only slightly familiar with Ranma, but I hope it does well too, just so we can get more stuff from older anime.
>>5298605
Same. I especially want Shampoo, Ryoga and Ukyo. The rest of the cast would likewise be great, and probably end up in my collection eventually, but those three are my highest priority support characters.
>>5300093
Wouldn't that be great? I know other people in past threads have said they want Slayers stuff, and I do too, but I'd also love to get some merch/figures made from Utena.
Does anyone know exactly how successful the Sailor Moon sales have been? Because it seems like that line doing well with collectors in their late 20s and up would encourage them to pick up more older IPs.

Lucky you. Everything I've bought in the past month has been delayed because of those same holidays. One retailer even said that there will be delays of a week or more on orders between Nov. 1 and New Years because of the influx in orders.
>>5302804
Really? Weird. The last thing I ordered from a Miami took just two days to arrive, shipping out on Saturday morning and arriving Monday
Has anyone here ever contacted bluefin or something and got replacement parts? I just got an android 16 figure I bought from a friendly guy in the BST, and his arms seem to be made incorrectly, left bicep on the right, vice versa, as well as the forearms being on the correct arms. Even one of the connecting joints looks a bit chewed up which makes it a tad difficult to keep the arm pegged in.
>>5302982
Nevermind. I was able to take apart the arms enough and reassemble them that I seem to have fixed the problem.
>>5303052
Mine had some plastic around where the shoulder pegged into the bicep. I shoved it pretty hard and it seems to be fixed. Really cool figure, though. 30 bucks shipped, too. Can't beat that.
here is who we need after black widow and Hawkeye drop
>Falcon
>Black Panther
>Vision
>Wanda
>Bleeding edge ironman

So who can we realistically expect to be up for preorder on Monday night? Fujiko, Lupin, and Pikachu? I guess we won't be seeing anything else from the Tamashii event til next month, unless there are any last minute surprises.
>>5303287
Yeah those seem to be the only sure things, plus two Kamen Riders.
We've seen so many Star Wars and Dragon Ball prototypes though, so I wonder if we'll get anything from either of those series.

This just made me add a third battle droid to my AmiAmi order for the month. It looks so dang good! They're gonna be perfect opponents for grey body-chan to square off against too.
Hyped to get that shipping conformation on my droids. They look tons of fun.

I think we're getting more reddish ones from Episode 2 next year.
>>5305629
Is there any chance we'll see the colour variations based on function?
Paid for goku but i dont really want it any more.
>>5305644
Nothing like that has been shown. And I'd imagine they'd do clone trooper variants before more droids.
From the last set of leaks we got it looks like the reddish Episode 2 droids from Geonosis are coming next year along with Super Battle Droids.
Will probably wait fro the Super battle droid and Droideka instead of the dopey one.
WE should get Phase 2 armor in the future, but Bandai will need to acquire the license for Clone Wars in order to get all the order variants.

Whelp I'm fucked.
I thought he was cool in Ultimate Muscle despite horribly dying from a bottomless pit fall.
Sunshine, Ramen Man, or Kinkotsu Man when?
>>5306305
>Whelp I'm fucked.
...Just buy it from a middleman like BiJ or N-Y, dude.
>>5306296
If you support that you are just going to get more like it, let it die.
>>5306389
I said I wasn't going to. I can't justify it in any way.
Has anyone else not gotten their request from amiami for the clone trooper? I have it on order with boba fett, both are instock, and I'm seeing people having both of them shipped already. Amiami's pissing me off.

dat ass
Picked these two up today. They are awesome. In promo pics this was my least favorite goku, in hand, might be my favorite.
Does the new Goku's gi color match with the SDCC/MexiGoku?
If so, cool. If not, muh triggered
>>5306488
I've also not received my payment request.
>>5306557
Feel the same way, I bought him for completions sake but I ended up enjoying the shit out of it. While I would have preferred a metallic kind of blue for the hair, what we got looks really great in person.
>>5306488
Haven't got my payment either, but I did put an order in this morning.
>>5306488
I just did.
When is BBTS supposed to get their Super cyan goku and lakers freiza?
>>5306488
Just got mine for the Droid
>>5306519
normal goku head doesn't look quite right on awakening body.
>>5306653
American retailers are expecting them Monday I think.
>>5306946
Alright, thanks.
Looks much better with just a bit of shade.
>>5306946
Is Goku gonna be on Amazon?
>>5307674
No idea. Bluefin has really screwed the pooch with amazon.
>>5307677
Has it ever come out exactly what the fuck happened with Bluefin and Amazon?
>>5307747
I haven't seen Bluefin post a fucking word about it other than "we can't reinstate orders, sorry".
>>5307488
this is how it's looked at cons and shit for months, and how the final release is. I don't know why it's a surprise to anyone.
>>5306387
You forgot Pink

>>5307786
Did everyone else get their payment requests from AmiAmi yet? Got two clones in their way to me, now to wait for Episode II Obi to drop...
I know people don't like the prequels and with just cause, but I'd sell my body on the backstreets of Soho for a deluxe Epidode III Obi-Wan and that lizard bird thing he rides around on.
You guys think the droids will get a renewal like Luke and Vader? I already have one paid for but have too much else coming out soon to grab another but having only one with Grievous doesn't sit right with me.
>>5307920
>renewal
you mean reissue, or rerelease
>>5307931
yes that's what I meant.
>>5292030
>>5292033
Something about that face. I can't quite put my finger on it.
>>5307758
I don't think anyone would buy pink...
Just placed an order for a roger roger on hlj.
>>5307983
I like it.
>>5307488
Looks AMAZING with a bit of weathering!! This coming from a guy who sorta doesn't give a shit about DBZ anymore.
>>5308345
Frankly, that looks cheap and shitty.
I think this Goku actually looks pretty good even without slapping a bunch of shit across him. Most of the pics I've seen of people trying to add shading/drybrushing/weathering/whatever usually make him look bad.
Any reviews for the clone trooper yet? I'd like to know how its range of motion compares to the stormtrooper.
It sounds weird, but I'm apprehensive about buying a clone trooper because I passed on the Storm trooper for being so crappy. Owning clones without stormtroopers feels so weird to me.
>>5308345
That wash looks godawful. Sure it's a little bland as it is, but this doesn't help one bit.
>>5308482
But Clones are superior to Storms.
>>5307488
I honestly dgaf about dbz at all other than a couple of the interesting alien desgins like piccolo and cell. But, this Goku is actually pretty neat. I mean, as a non dbz kinda person I dig the fuck out of this design. If i had some kind of articulated monkey d. luffy that didn't suck ass I'd actually pick up wife beaten goku so they could go on adventures together.
>>5308345
You ruined a perfectly good figure.
>>5307767
Yeah, it's the lighting, it has the same shading there as it does in the picture you posted. Look here.
And for more reference, check out shishioh's/hacchaka's review and the 2chan thread.
>>5308540
this is a photo from 2chan, the poster here wasn't the guy who made it.
>>5307846
Dude, they may not be great movies, but there's plenty of awesome things from them. Can't wait for my droids and especially can't wait for super battle droids and Grievous to go up for preorder. Hoping they'll announce Ep III Obi-Wan and Droidekas soon.
>>5308633
They ruined a perfectly good figure.*

For those who've picked her up, how did Sailor V turn out? The only scout I have is Venus, and I was thinking it'd be cool to have 'em paired up.
>>5309457
I love 'er. Both my Venus and V had some paint flaws, though. They're not readily visible unless you shove your nose up against the glass of the cabinet they're in, or get them right up close when playing with them, but they are there. V's were primarily in the stripe on her skirt being a bit splotchy, while Venus had light brown discolouration on her hair underneath.
>>5309471
Oh. One downside: her shoulder guards prevent her from raising her arms very high, same as with Super Sailor Moon. That's a bit annoying, because it means some of her classic poses aren't possible as a result.
>>5308689
Commander Cody SHF when?
