So pre-orders for these will open on the 1st of June, if I'm reading right, yes?
>>5691554
Preorders usually go up the first of the month they're released in, yes.
>>5691572
Even knowing Jin's personality, Alpha is still cute!
>>5691554
>>5691599
Not always. It's just the date that stores are allowed to begin listing them which can also be a month or two before it comes out depending on what the catalog says. Some stores do it slightly before, and some drag their feet. And it's not consistent or announced beforehand like collector's figures either. But checking won't hurt.
Rider 1 and Zetton are also on the 1st.

His head crest looks dumb as fuck. But at least the little skirt hides the trademark SIC thunder thighs.

>>5691555
Is it a remake or something?
>>5691794

>>5691572
Wonder if Omega will get his Spear and Pick
>>5691830
They already showed him with the spear.
Just needs the scythe and whip now.
>>5691632
not at bbts. its for 60 still better than rape prices later on
>>5691830
They've already shown him with the spear. I wasn't expecting anything other than a pair of open hands like with other recent SHF releases.
>>5691545
Who's that guy?
>>5691545
Fuck, seeing videos of the big Yurusen I regret not getting it. It looks so nice.
One of the things I most regret missing out on right now. Any chances I can find it later?
>>5692088
>Limited to 6000 units
Good luck, I guess.
Ghost AU where Takeru is stuck as an Eyecon and Specter is the hero.
#vapenation
>>5691808
Nope. There's already a W CycloneJoker figuarts, so I'm confused
>>5692211
Have you been under a rock?
>>5692211
Yes, it's a remake. The old CJ SHF was (in retrospect) kind of shitty. You're familiar with Saber 2.0 or the MP Transformer line? Kind of like that.
>>5692211
I see you've been living under a rock for the last two years.
Anyone who already owns Amazon and is planning on getting Alpha and Omega should totally recreate this.
>>5692253
Alpha wouldn't be able to open his mouth, would he?
Ah yis...

yeah, i missed the boat, but I'm pretty happy with Violent Emotion Decade. He's proportions are pretty decent imo.
I'll def be trying to get Renewals later

Nearly four years, a new mold, and a different line later.
>>5692489
Better to have a manlet Zetton to go with my Ultra-acts than nothing at all. Fucking cunts.
>Coming soon
There's... another Zetton coming out? Or were they too lazy to upgrade the graphic with Zoffy's silhouette or something?
>>5692489
Motherfucker
>>5691555
Seeing this shit and knowing preorders are already closed just adds insult to injury. Last time I don't check in for two days.
>>5692497
The Ultra-act looks a lot nicer too in the clear yellow plastic area. Also SUITCASE.
Can the Figuarts even squat like that? They're barely posing him.
>>5692498
Based Blufin's got your back. Get 'em from Amazon, bro.

>>5692220
I think I can live with my old W just fine.
>>5692220
Funny they still use that pegged hands in the SS base body concept, while it's only Kabuto that use it and they got negative feedback for that.
>>5692506
To be fair, Zetton doesn't have a whole lot in the way of "signature poses" outside of "neutral stance" and "about to give you a hug." The Slav Squat is a bit more interesting than both and shows how flexible its lower body is.
>>5692497
Zetton would be a slav.
>Accidentally used SAL
Specter never.
>>5691572
Am I blind or is there no price? I haven't even started Amazons but I need these.
Imagine if we put our money away into an RRSP or some shit. (not my whole collection and I am just being an emo shit regretting everything I've done with my life)
>>5692880
Learning to ignore major flaws is the best thing you can do for your wallet.
>>5693256
Only major improvement immediately noticeable is the new scarf. There are other subtle improvements but it's not like old Kuuga vs new Kuuga impressive. Not worth the crazy high price IMO.
>>5693261
In addition to the usual proportions fixes, the biggest change to me is how much more screen accurate the eyes and crest look. I've always hated that oversized crest on the W mold. Labels on the gaia memories is a nice touch too. And of course, the infamous black elbow.
>>5693264
Oh I agree it's better. Just prices have went up a lot so if you own the old one it doesn't feel like a necessary upgrade value wise.
>>5691548
>S.M.H
precisely my reaction at this design
>>5693261
>Only major improvement immediately noticeable is the new scarf.
...Opposed to Cyclone having BLACK joints and the hideous hips?
And even then, we've only seen how the figure looks. The figure will most likely be better in terms of poseability, and won't have shitty die-cast feet that becomes loose too.
>Order stuff from Kotetsu for the first time without knowing anything about them

Hey neat
Kiva-la is seriously the first chick rider with mass-retail release?
Why that literally who instead of someone relevant?
>>5693635
How's dealing with them? Are they pretty much a smaller Mandy?
>>5693668
1. Because she is from Decade
2. To advertise the then upcoming Decade SHFSS announcement
3. Because there was no one relevant
Anyone else's specter sound like there is loose metal rattling around in his chest?
>>5693676
it's the same things with Ghost. it's one of the shoulder rings
There need to be more villains released
>>5693668
>relevant
>female
Pick one, now and forever
>>5692208
Doesn't he have another V for his right hand?
>>5693740
There's always Marika.
>>5693758
Not relevant and also had merch that sold terribly
>>5693744
yeah but i was too lazy to dig it out
>>5693762
She was one of the more relevant Riders in Gaim, you have to work real hard to say otherwise.
>>5693768
You're kidding, right? She was relevant right up until she attacked Kouta in Helheim when he had Kachidoki. After then she was nowhere near relevant until she decided to jump in front of a bomb for a guy that could survive it with no trouble.
>>5693261
First thing noticeable for me was the driver being properly sized and the head looking correct proportionately
>>5693669
As simple as placing an order and paying for it.
>>5693768
Lol nope, only relevant riders in Gaim were Kouta, Micchy, Kaito, and arguably Ryoma/Takatora
>>5693768
>had maybe one good fight scene
>sucked Baron's dick for the rest of the show
>somehow relevant
I dunno. She had more impact on the plot than knuckle, gridon, kurokage, bravo, and sid. There were only 5 riders more important than her, but only 5 less important than her. She's right in the middle of being relevent and irrelevent.

Fuck me. At least that's Go-Busters' mechs finished.
>>5694242
Man, it still fucking burns me that we never got Beet Buster or Stag Buster Figuarts. They were the best part of the show and I'd have happily gotten those rather than the buddyroids.
>>5694128
so Rider Mask Collection finally make a come back ?
>>5694410
Agreed. They made everyone but the stars of the show.
>>5694423
Apparently. They made a big deal about Mask Collection Legacy last year so I'm more curious how well that did.
>>5692217
Hope they do Hyper Kabuto soon.
>>5693449
It probably won't have the bendy, fragile knees either. And the arms don't look like they're hanging on by next to nothing either, with better shoulder pads.
>>5694410
>No figuarts to boost up with
Bandai killing Sentai SHFs before those two got made is a tragedy. I'd have bought a three pack exclusive of Beet, Stag and J in his buddyroid form too.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScAnxCUQ-Jk
both drive and ghost had their early season upgrades as regular releases, but their mid-season upgrades were premium. . .
I hope this doesn't become a trend.
>>5694433
Hopefully had good sales (should start seeing reviews soon, it's out on the 28th). I was going to buy all 3 Gaim Arms, but couldn't.... One day though, I'd love to have MCL's of everyone at that size with such detail.
>>5694718
GoBus figuarts shelf warmed hard
>>5694718
I've been putting off Go-Busters for awhile now. My girlfriend and buddy watch a lot of toku. Should I save it for them, guys?
I bought an item off Kotetsu-toys and didn't get a confirmation email or anything. Is this normal?
>>5693768
Just because she's your waifu doesn't mean she's relevant to the show's plot.
>>5695055
Get together and watch it. Go-Busters is pretty fun even if it gets rewritten halfway through. Just avoid the Gavan epsiodes. They're not that great and add nothing to the plot.

ITP:The only figuart you own, apparently
Really only the SS releases can be considered 10/10s, maybe a few select Gaim/Drive figuarts too
>>5696597
I actually own Two SS's, Stronger, Renwal Black RX, Drive Type Speed and Type Wild, V3, Ghost and Specter, and Gaim Orange Arms. Orange Arms is an amazing Figuarts. You actually have to create the spear mode instead of it being a separate accessory.
>>5696336
I feel dumb now. It's for the Rider's feet.
That's really cool.
>Go to toku general to see all the ultraman love
>Everyone talks about Kamen Rider, no Ultraman to be seen
Man. I'm happy for all the Kamen Rider fans, for all the attention that franchise gets, just wish there was more talk of Ultra related stuff
>>5696633
I like orange arms, but the fact he isn't a metallic blue really bothers me.
Baron is a 10/10 though.
>>5696669
>Baron is a 10/10 though.
>Tfw aftermarket prices and no signs of a re-issue
>>5696672
Try harder, anon. I paid 5,500 for my bananaman from Jungle. Keep lurking
>>5696664
Talk about what exactly? Ultra-act collectors are getting cucked right now, Figuarts hasn't come out, and people here don't really talk about roleplaying toys or sofubis in general.
Anyone got any of the pics of the rest of the Ultraman Figuarts line? Aside from the promo ones that is.
>>5696664
This is a thread for toys and merchandise, and there really isn't much worthwhile Ultraman product being put out these days. Kamen Rider gets much more collector level stuff in comparison.
It'll change when the Figuarts Ultraman comes out in a couple of months and people will be excited to see how it is. I'm looking forward to doing some goofy shit with the building effects.
On that note, though, are the 1.0 Ultra-Acts pretty much Figuarts sized? If so then I'd probably like to pick up that Belial that's been teasing me for so long but I couldn't bring myself to get because he'd be too short to be next to Zero.
>>5696669
My only real issue with barron is color as well.
That red metallic turns A burgundy color very quickly once exposed to open air.
>>5696833
It's an unfortunate side effect to putting a metallic pigment over a silver base. The silver will begin to bleed through as the red pigment sets in to the plastic and just naturally fades with time.
It's more noticeable on reds, greens and blues than any other colors
You can see it here on the lemon energy version pretty clearly
>>5696833
Got a before and after?
>>5696808
No, they arent. Although their heights were inconsisten due to how halfassed Bandai made the 1.0s
https://youtu.be/PojjTIzDu2U
Now we just need that Jam SHF...
>>5696852
Shit, oh well never mind then. Thanks for the tip, anon.
>>5696940
This shit is my jam, yo.
>>5696664
Nigga, I love me some Ultraman, but aside from figures of the lone hero on each show, and possibly any villains if you're lucky, there's not much to talk about here.
There's the new SHF Ultraman line which I hope actually kicks off, because I only ever got the first Ultra-act Ultraman, I'd love a renewal UltraSeven or Tiga, and moar villains.
I don't think I need to worry about wanting to get an SHF of the final form this time around.
>>5697286
At least it's less cluttered than Grateful.
>>5697286
That side view puts the new Rider 1's bulk to shame.
>>5697268
Get Ultra-act 2.0 Ultraseven and Tiga then, they're both really solid figures.
>>5697286
I like it
>>5697490
And Ace. Easily my favorite Ultra-Act.
Candy toy figures.
Do you guys think the Ultra Figuarts line will expand into characters we don't have figures of yet or are we stuck with getting the Ultra Brothers plus Tiga and nothing else?
>>5697593
They still haven't made half of the damashiis in this line and yet they're wasting time on reissuing a first wave figure and making one off Rider damashiis.
This year's candy toy figure line has the worst selection in years.
>>5697593
>Make Rider damashii for the Candy toy line
>But don't do it for the GC line
Why? Gaim got 5/8 of the Rider Arms released, and it seems like the Legend Rider stuff did really well this year.
>>5697603
>plus Tiga
What makes you assume they'd do Tiga?
>>5697603
X and Victory don't have anything yet. Hopefully those will be announced sooner rather than later.
>>5697614
Popularity, primarily. Tiga was one of the few non-Showa Ultra-Acts that got a reissue a little while ago so I assume he's a character that Bandai wouldn't mind putting out another figure for.
>>5697616
>wanting Figuarts Victory and X so they could be completely out of scale with all their peers
>>5697603
Despite what people want to think about Bandai charging more for the same characters, if they didn't plan on making the line last they wouldn't have bothered with so many prototypes and set pieces. They're choosing the ones they did because if they jumped straight into the new line they'd get people thinking like >>5697624 and those consumers would have no reason to buy in. Once people get invested into the Figuarts line for Ultraman, then they can continue to branch out.
>>5697624
It would be a bummer but it's not like they're ever getting Ultra-Acts. That ship has sailed.
>>5697645
I still have hopes.
Hell, people genuinely thought SHMA was a dead line at one point. Not to mention that the Ultra-act line was still active right up until Tamashii Nations.
>>5697624
X is suppose to be a little smaller anyways. As for Victory, I'd live. I'd rather have an out of scale Figuarts than nothing at all.
>>5697648
D-Arts wasn't a dead line either until Pikachu showed up under Figuarts.
SHMA isn't dead but some of the posters in the kaiju general sure as hell aren't happy with a dozen Godzillas.
>>5697659
>X is suppose to be a little smaller anyways.
He's the same height as everyone else.
>>5697659
>X is supposed to be a little smaller anyways.
That's been my perception of X thus far, too, but then I went back and watched that clip from the X movie of him, Tiga, and Ultraman standing side-by-side.
>>5697662
False equivalence, because D-arts and Figuarts are completely interchangeable. Ultra-act and Figuarts aren't.
They're still using the Ultra-act tag with the manga releases, too.
>SHMA isn't dead but some of the posters in the kaiju general sure as hell aren't happy with a dozen Godzillas.
Opposed to having dozens of Ultramen?
>>5697665
If you're familiar with the stageshow stuff, I think X is a bit of a shorty.
I actually wish he was a little short, same with Mebius.
>>5697662
>D-Arts wasn't a dead line either until Pikachu showed up under Figuarts
>what is Mega Blaziken
And they officially announced it two years ago.
http://blog.livedoor.jp/shfiguarts/archives/3095409.html
>>5697664
I need to get to Ultraman some time, other than X and V I couldn't tell you any of them.
Ginga didn't really draw me in though and X was like a slightly less interesting GoBusters that seemed to be filled with references over my head.
>>5697675
2 year old figuarts these days seem like they have no chance of being made. If you're going to bother with a prototype then why not at least put it on premium bandai
>>5697676
Ginga was god awful, Ginga S was better but it had the issue of being a little too short for full character development.
Also, you gotta bare with Hikaru's hideous-ass face.
>and X was like a slightly less interesting GoBusters
I love the fuck out of Go-Busters, so that's just a compliment to me.
Try Mebius or Tiga next. Mebius has even more references because it's an anniversary show, but it's not really an issue and it gives you a taste of Showa. Mebius/Mirai is also really moe, if you're into that.
>>5697676
Ginga is rough but if you managed to make it to the end of it I'd definitely recommend checking out Ginga S. It's Tsuburaya doing their best for dropping the ball with Ginga and trying to get back into the swing of things.
>X was like... GoBusters
You mean with the attack team and whatnot? Because that's a pretty big part of Ultra. Most every series has one.
>>5697703
Mebius is really good and I hope you enjoy it! If you do end up liking it, Mebius' Ultra-Act is still fairly common and doesn't go for too much.
I can't say the same for the secondary Ultra in Mebius, sadly.
>>5697711
Ultra-act Tsurugi Knight still goes for about MSRP new, so that's good at least.
It's definitely normal Hikari that people want, though.
>>5697711
Looks like he goes for 4k which is close enough to list price. Not low enough that I'd jump on him without watching like I did with Agito, but Mebius might end up being my first Ultra-Act.
So looks like Ultraman has some gash stuff in September. A small house building with a light and Ultraman B Type/Tiga Multitype figures with some small bulbs in their backs to light up. Not quite Figuarts LED but then it's all cheap.
Diecast beast batteries also showing up at some toy show.
>>5697764
Why? I liked Kyoryuger but its been over two years since it ended, and its not like Ranger Keys were continuing as long as the show goes on makes sense.
>>5697764
>beast batteries
>not 獣電池
yeah go back to powerfags general
>>5697286
Damn that's ugly. I admit I've not been in the KR game long (only started watching with Gaim), but that's the worst looking final form I've seen yet.
>>5697684
>If you're going to bother with a prototype then why not at least put it on premium bandai
This. So much this. Sentai including Reds) could have gone to exclusively P-Bandai and they'd not have to worry about producing more than what was ordered.
>>5697804
That's the term that Over-Time used
>>5697806
Cosmic has to be my least favorite.
>>5697806
Yeah... I wonder how well Ghost is even selling.
Seems like it's selling poorly in the adult market (Figuarts' pre-orders not being able to sell out for the first time in a few years)
>>5697806
That ain't Decade Complete!
>>5697665
Ultraman looks fucking jacked compared to the other two.
>>5697830
At least Complete fit the themes Decade was going for. Mugen is just a heap of glitter dropped onto a jacket with angry eyes.
>>5697909
Are you really trying to defend Decade Complete?
Are you trying to troll me? Was I just baited?
>>5698001
Saying something fit the themes of its show isn't bait. Go on back to /krg/ if you want that.
>>5697830
The only crime of Decade Complete is just pasting the cards onto his armor instead of doing the classy thing like his belt buckles did and use the logos of each season.
Other than that, I love Decade Complete. Especially the color scheme. Reminds of 1950s spacemen.
So how does /toy/ display their Zyudenchi?
I have so many questions that I hope someone here can answer for me.
http://www.uniqlo.com/jp/store/feature/uq/ut/kamenrider/
1) How do I get the eyecon? Buy two shirts?
2) Are these children's shirts?
3) Do they sell to non-Japanese addresses?
>>5698001
Decade Complete is pretty cool.
especially if you own the figuarts, you will appreciate him more.
I can't wait for him to get a SS treatment
>>5698845
1) Yes.
2) Yes.
3) No. At least, not that I'm aware of.
I'm pretty upset that the (probably) last figure was so disappointing. It's gonna suck having to buy all of these guys again but smaller.
>>5698845
You could just buy the eyecon on its own from a bunch of stores that are selling it online
i thought no one liked Hibiki
Why is his Figuarts 70+ bucks on Amazon?
I was hoping since he's my fave and no one likes him, I'd get a steal.
>>5699008

What are these, figures for ants?
>>5699013
Posted thumbnails by accident loll
>>5699017
>>5699012
Are these going to be 6 inches, so they're out of scale with the current PR figures AND the SHF?
It'd be nice if they dropped in a villain every other wave or something but that's probably too far fetched.
>>5699009
That would be due to scalpers anon.
Mandy has him up for 6k jpy.
>>5699009
The question is why the fuck are you lurking Amazon? Check Mandy.
There was one on BST earlier for 50 as well.
>>5699045
SHF are 6 inches.
>>5699105
Who ever told you that was fucking with you. You can get solid deals on Mandy because of small things like "dents on the box" and whatnot which amount to nothing. Compared to what sellers on Amazon are trying to pull on some figures I can probably get it cheaper shipped Mandarake or other 2nd hand Japanese sites.
You should punch the guy who told you that bullshit detail.
>>5699124
i heard you need at least 4500 yen minimum before you can ship to america.
Like, they arent going to ship you a 100 yen eyecon or something
>>5699131
I've bought cheap figure orders before for less than that and even with the old 500 yen fee if your order is under 5000
Not sure how small eyecons are but you should choose the appropriate shipping option and your good to go.
>>5699131
They had a policy that orders under 5000 yen had an additional "handling fee" of 500, maybe that's what you're thinking of.
I haven't used them in a little while but I think that's gone now.
>>5699082
I thought a lot were 5.5 inches
>>5699180
That's just what she told you to make you feel better.
Noticed there was a sale for Ghost on CD Japan for 2475 yen or $22.44 .
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEOGDS-169967
I was on the fence on ordering him but how much limitation does his torso have due to his jacket?
Fuck, I wish Sentai SHFs weren't dead
>>5699200
>>5699200
Fuuuuck, Zyuohger is surprisingly fucking sick.
I'd even settle for those sentai action figures they used to do. This guy and Zyuoh Whale look just so gorgeous, it's a huge tease that we won't be getting any action figures of them at all now.
Plex dropped the suit in a vat of glitter
>>5699243
I didn't watch it but wasn't ToQ-6 a villain too?
>>5699253
No, he was a former shadow monster that had defected to the rainbow line. So while he was a villain, he never got to actually be a villain, until a few episodes in the 30s, where he didn't do much villaining.
TheWorld is being introduced as a villain and a team leader for the Dethgaliens.
>>5699239
I'm still not really on board with this design. It's like they tried to do Wizard Infinity again, but missed the elements that made that an actually decent design.
Mugen is kind of an eyesore. It's too loud and chaotic because of the glitter/holographic foil armor being a main element instead of an accent. I'm also not a fan of the lapels and shoulders.
>>5699239
Well, that'll be a figure I won't want to own eventually.
>>5699270
Not to mention that if translated mugen literally means infinity in japan.

>ZA WARUDO is a wolfman
At least I hope he is. That'd be cool
>>5699500
The leaked magazine scan informed that he is an earthling that kidnapped and fused with the power of rhino, wolf and alligator Zyumans.
>>5699200
fuck yeah signature weapons..something they're seriously lacking. big feet and big claws aren't doing it for me.
>>5699515
So wait, it's not the Eagle Zyuman???
>>5699543
its never been him.
>>5697764
any more info on this? jap release?
>>5699607
Looked around but I can't find anything more. Only been a day though.
>>5699620
thanks anon! update here if any info pops up
>>5699644
Yeah, nothing since that tweet.
>>5698926
I was annoyed by that also, but then I remembered how much of a shit show the Ultra Act line was when it came to qc issues. I'm hoping this new line won't be full of loose joints and limbs popping off.

I'm pissed because I bit the bait when they reissued renewal Ultra-Act Ultraman but got a figure with fucking floppy thigh joint right out of the box. I'm actually a Kamen Rider fan who loved the very first Ultraman because it's what I grew up with, so I figured, might as well grab that.
Really was a bad experience. I'm actually hesitant to grab this coming one but out of the few SHF I own, none of them have come with loose joints, so I guess that fact alone is still tempting me to grab this new shf ultraman... I'd be pissed though if they did another renewal of it.
>>5699907
Yeah, the recent reissue of Ultraman was terrible in terms of QC.
It is fucking embarrassing, considering how old the line is and the majority of their modern releases not having these problems. And Bandai goes and fucks it up on the one that most casuals will buy
Is the Shocker rider with the pink scarf a former female?

>tfw got Hibiki from the /bst/ shipped for $35 a couple weeks ago because the guy was worried about potential incense smell.
>tfw it doesn't smell at all and was in perfect condition.
I lurk /bst/ everyday and only buy things I've been wanting for a long time. Gotten a few other really nice deals this way.
I grabbed the second version of Shadow moon from ebay for about 23 shipped. It's a pretty cool figure, I enjoy it. Any other shf that are sort of robotic like him? I was thinking of grabbing the black beetleborg guy since they'd be a neat little duo.
>>5700171
No, that's just gay Shocker
>>5700205
>tfw he used incense to cover up the hot glue smell
>>5700279
I imagine it would be pretty hard to not hot-glue such a sexy and almost 10/10 Figuarts.
It's a shame we'll won't be seeing any other Hibiki Figuarts anytime soon. There's no way Bandai wouldn't ever bother with Ibuki and Todoroki/Zanki (cuz repaint), just that it's way far back in their to-do list.
>>5699009
Wow what? I got him off of amazon.ca for 34 moose bucks.
I don't think he is that much on mandarake, He was 3500 last time I checked.
>>5700498
i'm kicking myself for trashing all my old motion revive figures. I had a whole rider band(also before i decided to keep my desk clean)

Christ, I hope the next Rider show has decent suits. Ghost has been dry as fuck for them outside of Necrom's.
>>5700587
Aside the suits, has ghost been a good show?
I dropped it on episode 2 when they proclaimed Edison as a hero and that inventor looked like the biggest spaz.
>>5700978
It's perfectly average. Nothing offensive about it, but also nothing great. Plays practically everything very safe. It's only really worth watching if you have nothing else to watch, I'd rate Ninninger the same as well.
For some reason though, it's sparked a huge shitposting spree over in /krg/, but then again, most things do over there.

Looks pretty good. Definitely will pick it up on the aftermarket (not enough funds during pre-order period). Hope they'll make others.
>>5700978
It's had a couple of neat moments, the Houdini one is the hypest part i've seen so far.
But yeah, so far nothing that's must-see. This would be a good chance to watch one of the older series instead.
>>5700978
Ghost starts off as really bad, turns mediocre after episode 6 or some shit, then gradually becomes just 'decent'.
>>5701255
I've watched every season, aswell as most of the movies.
I would've caved and tried Ghost again if it wasn't for Amazons.
I might give ghost another try though, I've not got a lot else to watch.
>>5701269
>then gradually becomes just 'decent'.
How can you even say that after one of the worst arcs yet in 31-32? That was straight up Myna Bird tier.
got my Mega Uloader today.
It's really nifty and I like it. So I'm gonna Crush Invaders all day.
That being said, it really hurts my wrist, it's almost as if it was made for kids.

yup, I'm a SIC guy who... really, stopped buying SICs too cause Takeya left it for a bit and I wasn't liking any of the newer ones other than Super 1, ZX and the 2 delicious SIC Shin's.
Then I got an ultra-act, missed the boat on shf black black rx and zo (my fav), figured that's my fav Ultraman other than Tiga and 7, so will bite as a test for shf. Turned out to be shit qc, I hesitated on Black RX shf but gave in and was surprised at just how much better it was.
Now, honestly I'm debating if I should bite for ultra-act Ultraman or not... plus they have eleking and baltan. Tempting but kind of ruined my trust for them (I know I wont put a dent on their earnings though if I dont, just wondering if it'll be a good purchase or not)
Is SHF Kiwami Gaim any good? I've heard of the fruits basketto sticker on the inside of the chest coming off, but is it overall solid? I want to finish Gaim's main three forms before going into the form changes.
>>5701781
yeah from a build standpoint it's fine enough
>>5701781
I remember a few people posting about QC problems besides the sticker when it came out. To clarify the sticker issue though, it's not that it was falling off, it's that it was poorly planned and the results were frequently poorly applied and visibly wrinkly. The sticker actually holds on quite well.
Mine has a slightly wrinkled sticker and some paint errors on the large special weapon that required a little touch up. Besides that though, the figure *IS* pretty nice: good paint overall and nice details.

Cape isn't cloth.
How are you supposed to army build figuarts they are so expensive. This guy I know on twitter has like 50 zectroopers
>>5701879
I bet you could armybuild on the cheap if you were willing to buy grunts with like, missing accessories

Goober face gets reissued all the time. Including this week.
