That said - Sailor Moon isn't toku. Hit the other Figuarts thread for more on her. On the bugman side of things, I also thankfully had nothing to worry about last night, since I'm intentionally waiting out the Cyclone bike for the Bluefin release when I should have even better finances, and eff Blade. Kiiiiiinda want the exclusive darker Skyrider, but he's no Scissors (strangely favorite Ryuki suit and DK character for sheer douchieness) or Apollo Geist.

I'm sure she will be too, plus I don't want her so it's not like I have any stake in her availability.

I love Blade's look, but never seen the show so not even sweating it, yes? I told my friend about the White Ranger going up on preorder and he about lost it. He managed to resist getting Red and Green, but he's a HUGE White Ranger fan from his youth, including having the entire team of Thunderzords. So looks like I am continuing in my corruption of him, heh.

White Ranger still isn't up on Amazon, right? I couldn't find him..
But I did notice the price dropped finally for Green Ranger. So cancelled my initial and made a new order, to avoid being overcharged like last time that happened..

Yeah, I don't that. Amazon is supposed to guarantee the preorder price no matter what is was, but they never refunded me anything for Flame Style on Wizard. As such, when I saw both Tyranno and Dragon for cheaper, I created a new order. Of course, I've got them on preorder now from AmiAmi, so I might not even bother with Amazon.

So overall, I am very disappointed with the quality in Gavan. It is already bad enough I am worried about how the Vac metal is going to last over time, but I have had some issues with the quality control. First off, I had to glue his left knee cap into the joint because the hole it was supposed to go into wasn't formed right, so the cap refused to sit on the knee at all. Then I have the wrist joint that connects that hand pop out whenever I want to take the hand off, so I have to pull the wrist bracelet off, push massive pressure onto the wrist so I can pop off the hand without the peg coming out, and then put everything back together. I also have his waist feeling like it wants to pop out of the body.
As I said, the figure itself is cool, and as a Gavan fan, I am glad to have him, but as an exclusive figure, he is a disappointment. I hope mine is just an isolated incident and not a wide spread issue because if it is, that is truly unacceptable. Now I'm not sure I am going to go after Shraider or Sharivan. |

How's the vac metal on Gavan holding up? That was my big concern about the figure.

FINALLY nabbed a Deka Green on Mandarake. Now the team will be complete when Yellow and Pink are released.
With Gavan on his way to me too, its obviously a pretty good time for space cops
