I have most DX sets, all the characters I want now are Candy and Gashapon exclusive, I hate it.
>>
>>5306658
Well, such is life. Most of the keys were exclusive to a single set outside of a few outliers that got put in another set. For the most part they should be around $15-20 for a single one with exceptions. Metallic OOO is an expensive one, all of JAKQ and Battle Fever are expensive usually being $40 a key, Gokai Christmas is reasonable, all the characters that are like Ninjaman, Signalman, Rio, and Mele will be $20-40 most of the time, and so on. It's why I just didn't bother past the normal DX sets, it gets to be crazy hard to justify paying for some really low quality keys just to finish off the collection.

So I got everything I need for my Custom Rhino Gurongi except for the base body.
Before I get a body, what style should I go for?

I'm leaning towards a Stylized because I plan on making a Manga Kuuga custom, along with a couple of other Gurongi, but I want to see opinions and other ideas.

Honestly the Gaim lineup is pretty bad. Suika, Jam, Ringo Baron, and Dragonfruits Duke I could see getting released. Gold and Silver apples seem forever ago, and Kiwi/Ichigo/Dark Gaim/Peco are all pretty underwhelming at this point.

Going to get my friend a gift for his birthday next week, and I know he's still missing some of the newer 2.0 figures and has mentioned wanting to complete what's already out.

I'm looking at either Hibiki or Agito (he has Kuuga and Kabuto), but which one would make the better gift/purchase?

I know he likes them both, but I am at loss on which would be the better thing to receive. Could anyone shed some light?

Hibiki is a very underrated Rider and design. If you think he's open to something a little different, go with Hibiki, the figure is excellent.

Much appreciated!

Is the quality of it generally "nicer" than Agito's?

I, myself, am biased-- I think Agito looks cool, but he looks too "bulky"

But I don't my my own personal biases getting in the way of a cool gift.
>>
>>5307509
I dunno, Lord Baron might look a little more like a completely new figure. Is there anywhere to pre-order him where you don't have to pay right away?

I really need them to release apple Baron though.

Sorry son, cant stay stagnate.

I'd say better than Agito, yeah.
>>5307588
I was talking about Dark Gaim and Apple.
Pay later is dead unless you can find a good middleman willing to take the risk. They only let you pay later on orders that are under 300k now and NY is just too big for that.
>>
>>5307583
I find Agito the better figure as he's pretty much Kuuga with better ankles.
>>
>>5306486
Junis Blue is at a decent price, get him if you really want Nexus. Shame Bandai still hasn't made Anphans for some reason.

Fucking Dyna is who needs a reissue, especially since they reissued Tiga last year + released Cosmos.
>>
>>5307600
Easy for someone who doesn't collect Ultra-Acts to say.
>>
>>5307509

The thing about the Gaim line is that there are a ton of recycled parts. A lot of forms are straight up repaints of others (Gaim Yami, Ryugen Yomi) and quite a few use identical torso armor and helmets.
>>
>>5307794
Not sure what that means, lol. Care to elaborate?

He already has Kuuga, so would that be lame to get him the "same" figure as he currently owns?
>>
>>5307590
Excluding kaijus, Ultra-act has almost everything covered major-wise anyway.

Unlike SHMA, unfortunately...
>>
Would anyone be able to post a picture of Proto Drive with Type Wild's hands, while holding the sword?

I need a visual if someone would be so kind as to oblige.
>>
>>5307864
Kuuga and Agito are very very similar in design so their SHFSS' are a lot closer to each other than say Kuuga and Kabuto.

And it's been stuck like that since the 25th. I'd like to think it is coming back around since the last update said it was heading to the destination, though I cannot say for sure.

Has anyone else had this issue with RSAL? How did it turn out?
>>
>>5308028
I had an order via RSAL go through my state twice before it actually go to me. It was infuriating seeing them waste a week doing that. Ended up getting the order, but it was basically a week of them dicking around with it.

Mine tend not to update from New York until they show up here. But I've used FedEx before and they have a weird method of routing packages in a big circle around a few states before it gets here.

After playing around with the saber and hand weapons, I just might end up getting them a bit further down the road. Those things are gonna plummet in price down the road. It took a while for them to sell out on AmiAmi, and they're all in stock right now on Hobby Search, so if I play the waiting game, I can snag 'em for cheap later.

Yeah, the Ghost line seems to be pulling another Drive, where they severely overestimate how popular it's going to be. Gaim was a pain in the ass because they underestimated due to Wizard's low sales and Drive stuff is super cheap and easy to find for the exact opposite reason.
>>
>>5307568
I don't even like Hibiki's design that much but that figure is so goddamned beautiful in person.
>>
Did anyone bother getting Ryugen Yomi? Anything special about him or is he so close to regular/Grape Ryugen that it doesn't really matter?
>>
>>5309863
His weapons are completely different
>>
>>5309863
Well, the costumes are technically different plus he has the axe and halberd thing. I have him because I intend to get all Gaim figuarts.
>>
>>5309863
It's pretty identical as a figure, though the color isn't as good as the show suit.
Like others said though, the accessory count is impressive. Two Over Lord weapons and the Kiwi thing.
>>
>>5309876

No gun? That's odd but I guess they figure if you're dedicated enough to want to collect Micchy the Shit, then you'd already have it with Budou Arms.

I think YOU might be underestimating how fucking addictive these Eyecons are. I've already got over a dozen and I'm still craving more like a meth addict. Shift Cars weren't nearly this cool.

That said, the Gadgets really have nothing to do with the Eyecons themselves, so yeah. I can see them at least staying pretty cheap in the long run.
>>
>>5310116

>Shift Cars weren't nearly this cool.

Plus the Eyecons are easier to just idly fuck with. They do the same thing for me as the Switches and Kyoryuger's Zyudenchi.
>>
>>5310085
I'm loving these things. They're fun and great poseable. You can pop Ghost's Mask off so he can actually turn his head with coat on.

>>
>>5311612
Just don't worry about getting it the second it goes up, Amiami practically crashes when that happens. It'll be available for at least three or four hours before it's actually out of stock, so personally i always wait an hour or so for the rush to die down so i can avoid the lag.

No, that means Amiami lists it at 4 PM December 1.

I think he's just referring to the display window and artwork. The smaller boxes are being used for the entire line now, not just Drive. They were introduced with the Kikaider figures.

I was going to say they're standard now for the whole line but realized that Rider 3 is the only one I remembered and that was Drive's movie.

Because he's replying to the ghost change posts, about Ghost's first hero eyecon?

Newton has been in the show now and showed up before most of the eyecons, yet has no scheduled release date. Unless Newton is getting some sort of focus episode down the road or it's the movie set, then why haven't they made it?

Doesn't AmiAmi usually put up the item pages a little while before the preorders actually go live? how soon does that happen?

Mine seems fine. That said the figure does have an issue with his right ankle not being able to move inward as far as his left. There's a fix for it that involves popping the sole of the foot off and trimming a little bit on the inside, but I can't find the image for it right now.

It is only 5 things, but damn I've never had to prepare to preorder 5 things in one night that will all ce out in one month. Luckily Tomoyo was up and done. Not out until June too.

Oh hey, the pages are up on amiami.

Preorders live on HLJ too but you have to search for them as they haven't updated the front page yet.

Kabuto sold out (finally)

Everything else still up

God damn. How can after a rerelease can this be a problem? Even Ghost is still open.

I do not remember this issue with Kuuga's rerelease.

>>5312215
Kabuto goes for 8k right now, are you really surprised?
And he's still up on HLJ
>>
>>5312215
Because SHF SS Kabuto was just that fucking popular. It's still going for quite a bit on the aftermarket.

Kabuto's aftermarket price is the highest of all the SHFSS.

So actually getting Kabuto means I was really lucky or something then?
>>
>>5312216
Kuuga was ridiculous too but the quick rerelease shot that down.

How was there not enough Kabuto the first time around to ease preordering the 2nd release a la Kuuga?
>>
>>5312223
He was open for 20 minutes, I didn't get anything tonight but could have easily gotten him if I wanted to.
>>
Wow that was easy, I went for kabuto first and came back for ghost later. Not even a hiccup.
>>
>>5312229
20? Kabuto started fucking up processing my order after 12 when he sold out.
>>
Kabuto long gone.

Both Ghost and the Kabuto Extender are both wavering on the line between being sold out and still up for preorder

Fujiko and Lupin don't seem to be moving at all.
>>
>>5312229

This. You guys are spoiled when I compare these to the Bandai days of old.

>>5312236
Only the main Kamen Rider stuff and Metal Builds seems to sell out on pre-order nights.

QUESTION.

I just got Ultra Act Ultraman, renewal version. THEN I hear there's going to be an SHF Ultraman, along with others like Ultra Seven, is this true?

I thought Ultra Acts were pretty much just figuarts, bandai just called them something else cus the amount of Ultraman characters warranted their own line. I guess I was wrong though.

I know the Ultraman SHFs aren't out yet, but did I make a mistake? Should I have waited for the SHF Ultraman instead of getting the Ultra Act? Should I wait for the SHF Ultra Seven or get the Ultra Act?
>>
>>5312237
I still do not get where you guys are getting 20 minutes unless you refreshed when there was a short glimmer of him going back up.
>>
>>5312244
Well, looking at the times from anons he was open for about 20 or so minutes total on hlj amiami and hobby search

Ultra Acts, while fairly similar, are definitely better than the figuarts, the bodies look much better and they're in scale with the soft vinyl monsters.
Figuarts instead match the less defined bodies and are in scale with other figuarts. Easy to resell characters this way, they fit in with the other production and they consolidate everything under one brand.
>>
>>5312244

Oh my god are you serious? Lmao I look forward to competing against you on a Bandai day where I actually want something.
>>
>>5312266
What are you even talking about, dude? I've clutched through the worst of it. I am just saying there either your clock is broken or you are over shootin your estimates here.

Definitely not 20 minutes. All I am sayin'. At least on amiami alone, which in particular only exists to me right now. I have 25000+ yen's worth of April shit on amiami's boat. Pretty dumb for anyone to split preorders between stores at that point.

Depends on your preference, really.

I strongly prefer Ultra-acts in terms of stylization in sculpt and how the joints have been implemented, and the fact that most of the characters are already released (we don't know if Bandai will be making Ultramen past the main Brothers, which are always milked to death anyway)

>>5312241
The Ultra-Acts look much better than the Figuarts but the issue is that Ultra-Act is basically dead unless the SHF line bombs and they go back to Ultra-Acts. You got the better figure but if they come out with a character in the SHF line who's not already gotten an Ultra-Act (other than X since he's a shrimp anyways) then you might have some scale issues.

>>5315848
Color isn't particularly consistent so it has a regular white, a yellowish white, and a white that isn't painted well so black underneath shows through. The antennae are loose so if you try to angle his neck or lift his mask one might fall out. There's really no excusing the eyes on him. While his legs are good his arms are very limited, no real swivel and the shoulder tire is picky.

For a pretty simple costume he's disappointing.

They're all worth getting, bruh.

Sorry for the terribad pic.
>>
Why are SHF thigh swivels such shit? This "unique" inner sheath thing they've got going...it just doesn't work very well most of the time. I mean, by design it only allows you a few degrees of movement in either direction before the outer thigh pieces bumps into the hip joint. And lacking a usable thigh swivel makes it REALLY hard to do some pretty basic poses. Come on Bandai, this is basic shit, stop trying to be all "innovative" at the cost of articulation and just give me a goddamn thigh cut.

And yes, I know this is slowly becoming less of a problem as Bandai seems to be shifting over to Type 2 hips for the most part, but they're still using Type 1s at random, and that thigh movement is still shit on most of them.
>>
>>5316184
Yeah, they're pretty shit, it's why i'm glad they swapped to usually sticking with type 2 for riders now, with only the rare exception like sango. Honestly though i don't think they give you an overly hindered amount of movement, pretty much the amount a real leg would give you, but i get what you're coming from.

Any figure in particular giving you that problem the most?
>>
>>5316167
Agreed.

I will say, though, that as much as I love Kabuto for the character and the design, it really doesn't stand out as much as the rest in my opinion.

He looks great on my shelf, but for whatever reason, I find myself fiddling around with Kuuga and Agito more.

Where would be the best place to buy toku merch in Tokyo? Also, are the Toei Hero World and Kamen Rider Diner worth it?
>>
>>5316209
Renewal Black RX, who I am otherwise very pleased with. When you raise his legs too high, they tend to want to turn inwards, which a thigh cut would have solved neatly. I understand that Bandai was trying to go for a (relatively) seamless and realistic look, but SHF is also supposed to be known for its poseability so I'm a bit disappointed.

I recall having this issue with a lot of the Showa Riders, actually. Not just in the thighs, but also in the biceps, where they had the exact same problem--Bandai didn't want to put in actual cuts, so they put in this halfassed "sheathed" joint that barely has any range at all.

>>5316253
Yeah they always did the original style thighs for all showa riders, hence why they gave them to sango. Eh, thigh cuts always seemed alot more kid-toy-ish to me, probably because that's what the change toylines use . Bandai should have maybe allowed the hips to swing down further enough to give just a bit more give when raising the leg up, so you can go up beyond just 90 degreeds.

Still, you do get a pretty decent amount of movement out of them for what they are, you can actually get them to cross their legs and everything. If i couldn't get them with type 2, then i'd prefer these to an actual thigh cut.

Well, Type 1 hips aren't always bad, sometimes it still allows for a nice thigh swivel (pic related). The main problem is that Bandai started to bring the outer thigh sculpt further and further up to create a more seamless look, and that's what hinders the thigh swivel now.
