Anyone else buy the reissue?
>Formula is this month
I really should stop forgetting about things I've ordered.
I cannot fucking deduce this on my own via Google, so...
Does anyone know anything about the differences between the two RAH Stronger figs? Alternately, are there any worthwhile sites for RAH rundowns?
>>5287331
There are two RAH lines, 220 and 301. 301 is the main one, they're 1/6, while 220 is 1/8. 220 is cheaper while sacrificing detail and some size.
You can use medicom's site if you want to look through for details (http://www.medicomtoy.co.jp/prod/dt/1/1/1702.html and http://www.medicomtoy.co.jp/prod/dt/4/21/3390.html). Wouldn't be able to tell you a good reviewer, though images and videos aren't hard to find.
>>5287339
Ahhhh, SCALE. Okay. I couldn't determine any real difference between the two. That makes sense. Pretty sure my Joker is 1/6 so I'll go with that version of Stronger. Thanks!
>>5287215
They need to reissue the god damn arrow, too bad they obviously won't.
>>5287426
Definitely not, have to sell that Saver/Pomegranate lockseed set.
So I guess Kre-o is on topic since the announcement of armor hero sets for china. Looks reminiscent of the old MB KR and sentai sets.
>>5287845
Are there pictures yet? I really wanna see these.
There's a picture over at tfw2005 under the investor day article. I would dl and attach but my device is acting screwy
>>5287993
>>5287675
Nobody wants the actual arrow retard, they want the lemon energy lockseed.
>>5287999
Is that Satria Garuda?
>>5287999
oh my god this is hilarious
Should be getting this guy sometime later this week or on Monday, to those who have it...what am I in for? And yes, I'm well aware of the fact early SICs were not so well articulated...I don't care, I just love this design.
>>5287999
Is this like a Chinese kamen rider?
>>5288488
Just ordered some Kuuga last week, vol 13, 22, and 56
>>5288503
yes, and it did surprisingly well there
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRRy-QPdZ4Q
>>5288315
Dammit anon, I was browsing page 1 and your post got me excited thinking that Bima would finally have some relevant toys.
>>5287999
But instead it's just Armour Hero, which should be even less relevant than Satria Garuda Bima. Why is Armour Hero getting Kreo figures anyway? Have they started showing it in America?
http://www.taghobby.com/?p=64141
Looking good. Shame it only comes with 2 tires.
>>5288549
>Hasbro will initiate a Kre-O line exclusively for China titled Kre-O: Armour Hero. It seems as though it will have a Transformers element. No plans for it to go outside China. Animated series will also air.
>>5288597
Ah ok, thanks anon. I honestly didn't know Kreo was still going, I haven't seen any in yonks.
The set actually seems pretty alright, but that's a /pbbg/ thing.
>>5288488
Dude! I just got him a couple weeks ago for 1k on Mandy. His hips are neck are total dogshit but the fig is INCREDIBLE. The number of accessories is fucking staggering and he just looks amazing. I do warn you: the weapons are die-cast and can be difficult to pose with due to how heavy they are.
>>5288549
Sorry, bruv. I had never heard of Armour Hero. I thought that was the name of the brand.
>>5288488
Is there some logic behind Takeya sculpt's head proportions? Most of his heads look like shit to me, even when I like the rest of the design. I was wondering if there's something he was going for on those old SICs that I missed.
What's higher quality of the Eyecons? The Candy Toy or Gashapon?
The DX Beethoven and Nobunaga set are turning out to be rare as fuck.
My god Robo is unbelievably shit. What are the chances of a Renewal? I mean, he's a pretty recent figure and all but...damn they fucked up bad. What the fuck happened, anyway? The other Black figures are good. Did this one get handled by the "D" team?
Tried my hand at panel lining for the first time ever tonight. I like this fig so much better now.
>>5288916
Gashapon stuff is usually always better than candy.
It seems like all of spectre's items are turning out to be in lower supply, almost didn't get my gan gan hand order fulfilled.
>>5289011
Looks good, but a tad too dark. You should try grey for lines on lighter colors.
>>5287215
Wish they would reissue the bandai premium set for the nut riders and bravo
Decade is back up on Amiami
Probably the best $17 i ever spent.
rangers are kind of at a standstill aren't they? any word on future releases? i'm sure i'm getting way ahead of myself but i want a kyuenmon
>>5289088
Sentai SHFs are dead
>>5288951
Whoa hold on dude. What's wrong with him? Phew that stopping me from completing the Black Series Figuarts I guess.
>>5289077
What line was that Arashi released in?
>>5289209
S.I.C. two pack with Majinsai.
>>5289015
GanGan Hand, Cobra phone, Tut Eyecon, and his Ghost Change set have been sitting around on Mandarake since release.
>>5288577
Wow I love that box
What time does AmiAmi usually update their website? I know it's pretty early.
>>5289251
13:00 JST
>>5289264
That's roughly 10 PM central time, right?
>>5289272
Correct
>>5289275
Thank you very much.
>>5289155
Not him but it just looks bad. It has some incredibly awkward articulation and proportions and for the price it comes with absolutely fuckall in terms of accessories.
>>5289033
Will keep that in mind. Unfortunately, I only own the one Gundam marker.
>>5289380
They also come in gray
>>5289386
They come in a shit ton of colors. I only own a black one is what I'm saying.
>>5289264
Oh god, that's awful.
Gaim wasn't good enough to go to that amount of effort for a display.
>>5289406
This, it's pretty nice but Gaim? The fuck

Where the fuck is this place
>>5288577
That suit makes me a little nervous, like it'll crease and get dull with age.
Then again, when have we ever had an RAH figure with a suit that doesn't start rotting away after a couple of years?
>Shocker Riders, Grunts and Apollo Geist are the only showa villain figures
>my Stronger will never fight General Shadow or Titan wearing his cowboy poncho
>All those cancelled Ultra Act villain figures
>>5289664
I mean other than Doras and Shadowmoon sure, it sure sucks how Japan hates villains.
>>5289406
>>5289425
What's wrong with Gaim?
>>5289340
Needs a little bit more work on the lips, that but's looking fantastic.

>>5289340
Fuck i need one
http://p-bandai.jp/item/item-1000100742/
>>5289297
>>5289155
The main problems with Roborider:
- he's way too skinny, he should be thicker overall. He looks particularly pencil-necked.
- his chest and hips are way too narrow! IMO that's one of the worst looking parts of the figure.
- head is too big.
- his torso is too tall. Due to the way they stacked the crotch, belt, and chest, while still trying to preserve ab articulation, he just looks badly proportioned.
- as mentioned, articulation is fucking shit (aside from his neck, which has curiously good looking-up ability). And he looks bad in most poses to be honest, very stiff and awkward.
Roborider is one of my faves in all of Toku, so my disappointment was immense. I want a renewal of him worse than almost anything else.
So, I never really got into Gaim, but I really like the look of this form. However, I believe I remember hearing that it has problems as a figure. Can anyone tell me more about that?
>>5290087
Beneath the clear chest piece there's a sticker with the fruits on it, and unfortunately some people got ones with very crooked or wrinkled stickers.
It was an issue of poor QC, though to be fair those instances were pretty rare and mine was totally fine.
>>5290087
Mine had a lot of issues with both ankles and at one point, the right leg insides fell out. That was easily fixed, but the ankles are still pretty weak.
The cape can cause issues to, due to it being a chunk of plastic.
I personally didn't have this issue, but a lot of people also received the figure with the plastic on the chest piece cracked or the sticker for the fruit messed up. It's a lucky dip on whether or not you'll get a decent figure with Kiwami.
>>5290094
Okay, so other than that, it's a good figure?
I also wanted to ask about the hips, they look hella limited by those skirts. Oh, and how his balance is with the cape (i assume it's hard plastic).
>>5290087
Chest was pretty dull compared to the show, and for a character who's main gimmick was a stockpile of weapons he didn't come with them.
>>5289920
where
when
is it safe to order from nippon-yasan now
>>5289864
>they both come in one box
Well, there goes my just buying the chick.
>>5290100
>Okay, so other than that, it's a good figure?
Mine was really nice, except for the wrinkly sticker.
>>5290078
>(aside from his neck, which has curiously good looking-up ability)
This was done so he could look forward while riding his bike.
>>5290128
Yes it's safe, but they can't guarantee payment on release, rather it's when they reach a certain amount of orders.
11/20 at 16:00 JST, which is 1 day and 6 hours from now.
>yfw you stop being a child and move on to SIC
>>5290182
>tfw snob without a cause
SIC are great and i love them, and i'm also building up a collection of them since i've already gotten the Figuarts that interest me, but don't pretend they're some kind of more mature choice.
And besides, SIC releases come out at a glacial pace compared to Figuarts, we're two series after Wizard and they have only just finished that line.
>>5290182
My nigga. Can't wait for Latoratah to complete the OOO line.
>>5290182
>not buying both Figuarts and SIC
>>5290195
>>5290207
>they have only just finished that line
>complete the OOO line
They haven't even done that. They showed Earth/Wind base forms, Water/Earth/Wind Dragons, and we've seen Beast and Mage images.
And OOO we've seen Poseidon, Aqua, and Rebirth.
I'm not going to be surprised if they don't do all of those, but that's 10 figures.
>>5290228
I think those are just dead in the water.
Last Tamashii Nations they showed the Drive and Gaim SIC, and i think if they want to still be making figures its time they moved on to making things a majority of people would actually want like those.
And Poseidon/Aqua were statues anyway.
>>5290236
They just put out Birth, Prototype this month and RaToraTah is coming in spring. They don't seem too concerned about being a few seasons behind.
Maybe I'm just being too hopeful. It's a shame there wasn't a way to make the elements share base and dragon forms because I was hoping to get to Hurricane.
>>5290236
V3 better still be on the way
I'm so fucking mad that Bandai skipped Fourze for SIC. That's all I wanted.
>>5290395
Same. I was looking forward to seeing something like pic related.
>>5290395
It was SIC's decision, not Bandai.
>>5289664
Anon, why don't you do what I'm planning and learn to make your own figures?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jY3sze2S3Y4
>>5290427
>Really not a fan of Fourze's suits that aren't base Fourze and Meteor.
Same, but that's exactly why it would be cool to see a SIC redesign of them that might have a slight chance of making them look better.
>>5289704
Keep in mind these are the same guys who watched every raw on the weekend, at the edge of their seats waiting to discover the next plot twist. Collected every piece of merch over the run of the show, and then sold it all once the show was done to start collecting stuff for Drive. Now that Drives over they robably hate it too.
>>5289704
Absolutely nothing anon, they just want to be special snowflakes
>>5290182
>>5290450
Absolutely, I agree with you. But, this is 4chan. If they want to write blogposts complaining about someones display they can deal with the equally disparaging remarks they rightfully earned.
>>5290450
and people can't like things without being called out for it?
>>5290449
I-Is this real?
>>5290473
lurk moar
>>5290473
Are you? How long you been on the internet, youngin'?
>>5290176
thanks
>>5290445
No. It takes them about 20 episodes to sell everything and decide the last season was shit. They hate Ghost right now, just like they hated Drive this time last year.
>>5290228
I expect to see Beast, but none of the others considering the Wizard SICs sold really bad.
>>5290395
I think we'll get Fourze eventually. It would be odd for him to be the only main Rider not to get a SIC. It might just take a while.
What's a good site a Brazillian fag can get himself some Figuarts for a reasonable price?
>>5290603
>I think we'll get Fourze eventually. It would be odd for him to be the only main Rider not to get a SIC. It might just take a while.
I think i remember hearing that the reason why Fourze was skipped for Wizard was because SIC weren't confident that they could pull of his module gimmick that well at the time.
>>5290603
I guess I'm surprised to hear Wizard sold even worse than they would expect a Wizard product to do. But they're still going through with Infinity?
>>5288868
yes, to make them look like insects more. They're my favorites actually and what I'm missing from SIC.
I'm the exact reverse of you, I can't stand Kenji Ando's for just looking like mashed up and banged up SHFiguarts with shitty soft sculpts.
>>5289077
Wtf where did you get these for $17? I already have him but if there are other SICS in that price range, god damn anon.
I need to know.
>>5290713
Mandy, from their SAHRA store.
Opened but completely unused, everything still had the cable ties and sticky tape on it. And that's $17 dollerydoos, not ameribucks, it was on sale for 1,500.
>>5289920
Ugh
Do I need this?
I sold all of my Gaim Figuarts other than base Gaim, so I don't know where it would go in my collection.
I wish this had been released when my Gaim fever was still fierce, then it would have been an easy decision.
>>5289920
I've always wanted my very own Fangire!
>>5290884
recreate the final battle!
>>5287210
Is that some height accuracy I detect?
>>5290440
We must trade secrets.
>>5290884
>I sold all of my Gaim Figuarts
I really don't get this mindset. Do you not take the time to think through what you're buying?
>>5290984
It's like when you go on Facebook(Groups) and see someone selling the Drive Dirver and all the Shift Cars for $300.
You just sit there for a moment and think, "Why the fuck did that person buy all that, and not plan to keep it.".
I could understand if it was to resell it, but it's ALWAYS open and used.
>>5290987
It is the Mochismo of toy collecting, purely for the act of buying something while they want it because they're able to.
>>5290984
So you have never bought something and sold it down the road?
Shelf space isn't infinite and I try to keep my collection neat and not a cluster fuck, also i'm not really into hoarding.
It also didn't help that the price people were buying opened gaim figures was retardedly high so it seemed stupid not to sell them at those prices.
>>5291222
>So you have never bought something and sold it down the road?
Usually don't buy stuff I don't want.
>>5291222
Aside from not buying things on impulse, I wouldn't see anything wrong with deciding maybe you don't like a character as much as the show ends. But it sounds like you're selling them off solely for the sake of space, if a few figures are that bad for you then why wouldn't you be even more selective before buying?
>>5290984
>>5290987
>>5290990
>>5291234
Or maybe they just want to have fun with it, and they want some more money and room to have fun with the next thing? I swear, you're making this a lot more complicated than it really is.
DRIVE TYPE F-F-F-FORMULA!

>>5290395
The same with Bandai didn't make Kiva a proper Figuarts figure.
Never bought Kamen Rider bike, vehicles, etc. Got Agito last month and damn, I want Machine Tornador. How fucked I am?
Got some black and purple shit.
>>5292009
It's in the range of about 7-8k when it shows up on mandy, was kind of hoping for a renewal.
http://tamashii.jp/special/shf_ghost/
>>5292036
>>5292038
I wonder if the casing for the Ghost Driver will be a hard plastic or something more malleable that can be easily removed to show the ghost driver in it's "true" form.
So which site is ideal for placing preorder on Lord Baron besides Tamashi Webshop?
>>5292083
N-Y
>>5292036
SHF Yurusen looks good
Is Ghost a first release bonus or does he come as part of the package?
>>5292036
Awesome, Yurusen with a stand, dual hood options, and both main weapons are included. The only way this could be better is if it were being released sooner. It sucks always having to wait half-way through a series to get the first figure.
>>5292109
>>5292109
>he
>>5292120
Read his post again. Unless you're implying Ghost's actor is too cute to be a boy?
>>5292123
Oh. Thought it was Yurusen. My bad
Anyone ordering the KR Converge stuff? I was thinking about it but I was wondering whateveryone else thought since I own zero converge figures. Don't they at least least have shoulder articulation?
April
And Kabuto reissue
>>5292323
5k for Kabuto and the bike?
>>5292336
No, 5K for the bike.
>>5292036
Wow, it comes with both hoods, two Gan Gan Saber forms and Yurusen? Is this thing going to cost like 7k? Going by the prices of some of bandai's recent releases.
Is this going up for preorder on the 1st?
>>5292347
Under 5k
>>5292323
KABUTO REISSUE?
STOP BANDAI, MY DICK CAN ONLY GET SO HARD.
>>5292347
The price is right there. Yurusen is a bonus, and the Gan Gan Saber transforms.
>>5292347
It's 4,860 so you'll probably find it for about 3,900 on AmiAmi at the very least.
>>5292349
Oh wow the price is all over the page, how did I miss that lol.
>>5291711
Nobody would happen to know where he got that flooring and background display,would y'all?
>>5292323
I JUST BOUGHT A KABUTO!
Eh, it was $55. I also won't have to wait months, Thanks again Canada bro
>>5292036
>Those hips
Motherfucker why
Whew... That shipping stings a little, but it's worth it.
>>5292652
Yikes, EMS?
>>5291711
>>5291941
I hope this gets cheap in the aftermarket, pic related
>>5292323
tfw your birthday is in april but you're too old to ask for toys
>>5292711
How old are you? If you're 16-23, then yes you are.
If you're older than that though then it's fine, you're an adult collector.
>>5292711
Mention you'd like a gift card for expenses or to put toward a larger purchase. Then just move some money around.
Any recommendations on how to display all the gaim arms weapons? I currently have them in a pile behind my gaim figuarts display
>>5292771
Pile consists of DJ Gun, Mango Punisher, Pine Iron, Muso Saber and Sonic Arrow. Every other weapon is currently being held by the corresponding rider
>>5292652
To be expected when you have 3kg of stuff, before even considering the box they have to be shipped in.
>>5292718
>If you're older than that though then it's fine, you're an adult collector.
Good thing I'm turning 30!
>>5292771
Kiwami Arms wants as many weapons as you'll give him. Helheim gates would be great effects.
>>5292992
If i had the time, skill and patience, i would try for something like this
I just got the Gokai Key Chest, my collection doesn't fit (no surprise) but I don't know what to do with it. I am considering either putting the keys I don't care about in it, or putting the keys I like the most in, either way it is so I can easily find the ones I want.
What do other people use their hunk of plastic for?
The only thing that puts me off getting into Sentai is the lag of seemingly decent figures. Maybe one day we'll see more figuarts. Or good figures of the robots
>>5293363
Sentai Figuarts are basically dead anon. They just don't sell. Vul Eagle and Akarenger are still shelfwarming almost a year later.
>>5293370
Sigh, so lame that it's basically shitty DX toys and Sofubi if I want Sentai shit.
Anyone know when or how often Mandarake stores update their stock? I've been checking on and off hoping for someone's buyer's remorse to kick in over Type Formula so I can snag one for myself.
>>5293414
Every single day multiple time at different hours.
>>5293414
FigInStock bro. Set it up and it'll alert you if one comes into stock. Also check the Amiami preowned section.
I wish this guy was the one that got the updated Mebium Blade.
>See Billy the Kid Eyecon on HLJ
>It's low stock
>Nab that and the Tut Eyecon
>Think I made it in time
>Check today, see this
Fucking HLJ, man...
>>5293421
I don't typically so forms but I might have to pick this up at some point. Absolutely love that design.
So at this point, with the last couple kabuto releases being clearance fodder and ZaBee being online exclusive, is is safe to say that we won't be getting any more SIC Kabuto figures? I'm fine with that if so, because i picked up an extra punch/kick hopper set to scrap and make sasword/drake.
Not sure where to put this post, but I just checked my emails and HLJ has canceled all my preorders claiming that I had not answered the payment requests. Thing is I haven't gotten any payment requests for Decade, Bruce Lee, Fire, and Freddie Mercury. In fact I wouldn't be getting requests for these guys till next year. Has this happened to anyone else?
>>5295258
>canceled all my preorders claiming that I had not answered the payment requests.
Gee, did you have anything ordered besides those figures you mentioned? I feel like I'm not getting the entire story...
Did you check your spam folder, or possibly email them and ask what it was that was missed?
Obviously if the fault is on their end, they can amend things. Have you even tried any of this?
>>5295072
Wait, are his alt forms going to be accessory packs with the jackets weapon and an alternate head rather than full figures themselves?
>>5295275
I had ordered Garren for the fall sale. But the pay wouldn't go through. I'd told them this in an email, and I finally got the answers I needed at 8pm on Friday. I can head to the bank Monday, but like I said there was no warning about the cancelations for the next year orders. I can re preorder half of them but Decade and Lee are on order stop. I have sent an email to them, but they're closed till Monday.
>>5295295
They are their own figures.
>>5295347
I like Edison just because it reminds me of that slut TheBee
So my birthday my sister actually bought me a ghost driver. So I have to ask,
where can I buy Eyecons online thats not with the weapons? I'd rather not get the sword for spectre.
I lot of the sites I frequent are sold out on most of the single or candy toy eyecons
and the ones from amazon are +10 dollars (unless thats worth it for free shipping)
>>5295364
You can either go the eBay route, or my personal favorite for candy toy and gacha is CSToys.
>>5295473
cstoys was sold out on nearly everything
i usually try them first
>>5295539
The one time I bought from them, I got a signed "thank you" card with a Drive stamp and my name on it. They're also pretty good about replying to emails quickly.
>>5295539
They put a lot of effort in communicating with customers. But price-wise individual candy and capsule toys are always higher than retail. Their shipping is ridiculous too in my experience. My last RSAL order was 2700 even though it was a small box, and postage was 1000.
>>5295555
>>5295555
I wanted to buy a Figuarts, sofubi, and Ultra-act from them, but the R-SAL estimation gave me like ~35 CAD alone or some shit.
Seems like that shitty calculator was correct, then. Aside from eBay, where else can one buy gasha/candy stuff individually?
Any word on when AmiAmi is going to update their site with the Bat Clock and Billy the Kid Eyecon?
>>5295697
Not for two days at least since it's Sunday, and they have a holiday tomorrow.
>>5295720
Ah, right, forgot about that holiday. I'll have to keep an eye out Monday night.
>>5295364
Are you in Australia? There's an ebay store with them.
>>5295758
sorry, americana
So will the SHFSS kabuto reissue go up for preorder on the first?

Regularly check Mandarake. Currently I see Tut, Musashi, and Newton.
I can't remember if it was here or KRG on /m/ but someone was trying to convince me that Marron Energy wasn't coming out until February. I knew you were wrong.

There are 2 releases on the premium bandai website, one for November if you ordered in July through August and one in January if you ordered from August through November.

Broken helmet Zangetsu when.
>>5295364
I buy off a guy on Facebook.
He get's them in and sells them like $8 shipped or so and has been quick with stock.
Do you think we'll ever see 555 figuart renewals? I really want a full set of the 555 riders and it just seems impossible.
>>5297361
>ever
Maybe? Is Orga even out yet? Think about that.
>>5297361
SHFSS, yes.
Who the fuck knows when.
>>5295539
CSToys is top notch on customer service. I haven't seen better, they've got people who know English, they've got a guy who does a stream every week I think where he shows off the new stuff they got at the shop, they send you a personalized card as a thank you, they film them packing your stuff, and they're just generally great for getting Candy Toy and Gash stuff.
The problem is that most of their stuff is pricier than other sites(Outside of the Candy Toy/Gash stuff) by around $5 unless they've changed recently, and the shipping is nuts. On a Legends Mobirate by itself I paid $15 shipping RSAL(The Mobirate is 430g so that's ￥580, then add like another ￥200 for making it registered, and another ￥300 for the box at best since it's just a small box and newspaper), and on a Gaburevolver with two DX sets I paid $28 shipping(Gaburevolver is 980g, both DX packs weighed 160g total meaning 1140g or ￥1280, and add another ￥700 or so for the box and newspaper they stick in there and registered SAL). I have paid less on Mandarake orders that were triple the weight with double the items via EMS.
>>5297408
They're still as pricey, I think the main reason is they still seem to use a 100 yen to 1 USD conversion, then on top of that their shipping is ridiculous, like you've pointed out.
>>5297579
>>5297408
Explain this.
>>5293414
Formula up for 6k right now.
>>5297584
>Outside of the Candy Toy/Gash stuff
They're usually extremely reasonable with the Candy Toy/Gash stuff, sometimes barely a dollar more than it would cost if you were right there at the machine yourself. The only time those kinds of things are expensive if they're exclusives like the Battle Fever Ranger Keys for example.
>>5297584
Candy/Gash stuff is usually the exception, but now go check your shipping cost on those 4 little eyecons. Prolly $13-18 depending on type.
>>5297596
Oh shit, I didn't even notice that. Prolly a fuck up on their end with how the site auto converts yen to USD.
>>5297587
I just put in an order for it, but it just took me back to my cart with Formula still in it. I'm not getting a confirmation email or anything either and it's still showing up in my cart. Someone got to this shit before me didn't they.
>>5297601
It's sold out now so someone bought it.
>>5294695
>being this new
Dumbass
Has anyone who order Formula from Nippon Yassan get shipment confirmation yet?
How long does it usually take them to get them out? They have been pretty on point for the previous Drive exclusives, but that is just my limited experience.
>>5297601
What show is this? I wanna bone pigtails
>>5297649
Kamen Rider W and no, you really don't.
>>5297649
She's from Kamen Rider W, but you definitely don't.
>>5297663
Ignore those 2, they either are parroting other people and haven't even seen the show, are gay, or think the actress is somehow the same person as a role she played on a show once.
SOME people think her character on W was annoying, and I understand where they are coming from, but these betas blow everything out of proportion.
>>5297690
You say that as if her gravure stuff was good or she's some exceptional actor. Yeah she's not as bad as the character she plays but that isn't hard.
>>5297690
>SOME people think her character on W was annoying
Some as in most.
Her character was played up like a country bumpkin, which was supposed to make her endearing but instead just made her nails on chalkboard annoying.
>>5297690
You sure seem mad over people not liking a fictional character. She was terrible in the show and ruined nearly every scene she was in, that's reason enough for people to dislike her.
>SOME people
Oh man.
Please tell me this beautiful bastard did well enough for Mad Gallant to get the green light.
>>5295720
Will the holiday affect postage in any way?
Alot people say that alot of pre-Decade Riders deserve to get the SHFSS treatment, but W really needs to get one before anyone else cause while their figure is good it still has alot of problems common with early SHF.
Was Drive worth watching? To be honest, I haven't really been able to get into a KR series since Fourze. I need something good to grab me and drag me back in.
>>5297833
Well, so far they seem to be going in order of main Riders' original release dates, so if they keep it up, W is next, followed by Faiz. And I do hope they're going in order, cause I want a new W and Faiz so fucking bad.
>>5297836
Drive is ok, it has a very light hearted start and it takes a while for the melodrama to really kick in, but its plot actually had some very neat twists and turns if you're willing to stick with it and had a pretty great ending.
Just out of curiousity, though, have you tried watching Gaim?
>>5297841
I heard Gaim was great, but I couldn't get into it after a few eps. To be honest, the biggest thing keeping me going was Kota's stupid facial expressions, and I hear he kinda stops doing that. I guess I should probably give it another shot too.
This is gonna sound really shallow, but I'm actually really strongly affected by suit design--a bad one can turn me off a show entirely. Like, even though Wizard wasn't great, I don't think I could have enjoyed it even if it was--I just hated the suits so much.
>>5297844
>and I hear he kinda stops doing that
Whoever told you that was lying. He never stops them and he just gets worse with them. Especially when he starts crying about his resolve every few episodes.
>>5297844
Yeah Gaim has a really really tough start, so many people dropped it really early. But if you stick with it to about 12 you really see the show suddenly shift and shit gets really real really fast.
And yeah, nothing wrong with that. This is Toku, the interesting and fantastical suit is supposed to part of the deal. Honestly Drive was like that for me, though i really enjoyed some of his more outlandish form changes his base form just wasn't appealing to me.
Though on the other side of that i was almost turned off rider for good when i marathoned Kiva purely because i loved the suit... but then i actually watched it...
>>5297833
Honestly, I feel like OOO needs it more. But that's just me.
>>5297864
It's not just you, i'd never recommend someone get the TaToBa figuarts until it gets renewed, no matter how long that takes.
>>5295758
I'm australian! Store link?
>>5297967
I saw they had the candy toy eyecons, if you search that you'll probably find it.
>>5297592
Moose. can you gives us some tips on how to shop on mandrake?
I heard you need a minimum dollar amount to order from there.?
>>5296447
There's another Marron up if you're interested.
>>5297992
>can you gives us some tips on how to shop on mandrake?
It's the same as any other store, only you have to search in Japanese.
>I heard you need a minimum dollar amount to order from there.?
No, you don't. You can order with any amount. Just orders under 5000 yen get a 500 yen service charge added on.
You don't need tips for Mandarake. Hell, they have sections on their site that answer your questions.
>>5297994
I bought the first one, I just didn't take the screencap until after I did.
>>5297995
You don't have to search in Japanese but it's how you'll find more stuff. And terms are pretty specific since the categories aren't too defined.
curious question thats probably been asked since the beginning of time.
What are some shops in japan that sells kr or toku stuff? I guess im going there soon and I'm abit overwhelmed.
I hear there are alot of little shops.
IDK how to get around there.
Also, how much shit can I bring back to the states?
>>5297864
>>5297895
Tatoba seemed really awful at the time, but in retrospect, it's not all that bad. We were just used to really good ankle joints at that time, with the dual-hinge system. But since then we've seen plenty of SHFs with pretty shit-range ankles, it's not longer a really special thing. Plus, you can half-pop off the balljoints on Tatoba to get better range out of them.
Aside from the ankles, it was a well made and nicely sculpted figure. So I think I'd rather have a W with an actual working ab crunch and non-hideous hips and properly colored joints. There's more to fix there I think.
RAH Shadow Moon 2.0 is up for pre order.
>>5297992
It's the same as any other store, just go to their website and search in Japanese for the results. You can set the site to be entirely English to make navigating and account crating easier, but you still need to search in Japanese. You can find the names of series via Wikipedia or the respective Wikias so it shouldn't be that tough for you to search. Searching in English can be done, but you will usually get half the results or less of what you would get searching in Japanese since usually only Akihabara, Nakano, and Umeda I think it was put them up in English as well as Japanese.
>I heard you need a minimum dollar amount to order from there.?
You're recommended to order ￥5000 worth or items or more from a single shop because it doesn't get you hit with a service charge fee of ￥500 to your order. If you shop from more than one store it's not like Amazon where it puts the order together, it's like placing two separate orders that you have to pay shipping and service fees for, so it's recommended to stick to one store as well for all your items unless you're fine with the service charge and extra shipping you'll have to do.
Keep in mind you're not guaranteed the items either, they're all at their stores so they have to go looking for them before you're actually confirmed to get them, so if you have certain items you really want but you don't really want the others as much, make sure you tick off the "Close this order if item is not in stock" button at checkout.
Anyone seen in-hand photos of Rideron yet?

10k is too awful of a price if I planned to buy more
>>5298013
>how much shit can I bring back to the states?
It's actually illegal for gaijins to export the fecal material of japanese nationals, so you are shit out of luck desu senpai.
>>5299016
>10k
>recently bought similar looking Banpresto helmets for $10 each on Mandarake
Haha no
>>5299043
Didn't expect the size, but speculated it could contain Orange, Pine, Ichigo, Kachidoki, and Kiwami.
That said, I'll probably get this. I just hope enough are sold that they'll do others from Gaim and then other series.
>>5299016
Is it bad that I really want this?
