After looking at reviews of SHF Evol, I suddenly want to preorder him if he ever comes back in the P-Bandai shop. The prices just keep going up up up! I'm starting to feel like a moron for passing him up in the first round.
That thing puts the 'art' in 'Figuart', it's a masterpiece in it's own right, even without weapons! And with how much charisma Evol had in the show, it's definitely bumped up my (really short) 'really want it' list.

Considering the reissues are only on p- bandai, wont it be next to impossible to get a preorder in via middleman, since they're such in demand figures?

Premium Bandai figures are in my experience actually a lot easier if you know what you're doing. Retail SHFs sell out in seconds (aside from Vulcan and Blades), but Premium Bandai stuff stays on the website for about a month so you've got a big window of time to sort stuff out through proxy services like Zenmarket or good middlemen like Nin Nin Game.

Gotcha, thanks for the info. Definitely jumping on cross z and evol when they drop. Also is it common for figuarts to flake a bit when you pose them post unboxing? Or is it something to be concerned about?

I can't say it's something I've experienced -- even comparing the two Build SHFs I have (Cross-Z Great and RabbitRabbit, both of which I've had for a year or so), they seem perfectly fine.

I didnt find any chipped areas so probably some overspray on the near the joints. So it's probably nothing. Thanks for the clarification.

I can confirm the paint can flake but only on certain colors, I've found.
My SHF Vulcan's silver lavender(?) had chipped on his hips and both my Cross-Z Charge and Woz have chipped on the thigh and butt area. My Zero-One's silver chipped at the elbow. Definitely look out on the silver riders. |

Weirdly enough it was the pinkish red on rabbit tank that chipped. I inspected the figure but didnt find any chipping. Maybe it was overspray or maybe i missed something. It was an extremely small micro- speck on my finger. I was really careful, so hopefully it's nothing. Thanks for the info tho TheRaizin, ill keep a lookout for it just in case. If it is chipping, is it preventable or an inevitability with S.H.F riders?

You put words to my thoughts! I said it before when he was first revealed, but Evol really is the type of character who doesn't need weapons at all; even if a Steam Blade or something would be appreciated to recreate a few scenes. It ultimately doesn't matter as he looks beautiful and the poses and forms he can pull off are more than enough to warrant the price!
