I'll happily buy both versions :D

I know Mandrake are only human, but there is a different between taking the piss and deciding to put the item back on the shelf but I was made to feel like I was messing them about when I think what I asked was perfectly reasonable. I don't like that THEY can change the order - whether it was ultimately their fault or intention or not - and you have no say in it.

I was just pointing out that they weren't listing sold out items on purpose, it was just an unfortunate side effect of having an online order system for a brick and mortar store.

I certainly agree with you that complaining about you wanting to cancel your order is a bit dodgy. They assume that you want everything they have that you ordered, and you have to go out of your way to indicate you want all or nothing.

Huh... Been a while since I remembered to get an updated version of this.

Imperer arrived yesterday. Similar to Scissors, not loaded with accessories, stand still thrown in (yay). The shoulder pads, which wrap around the upper arms, hinder shoulder posability a bit; his neck seems way more posable (or, at least, easier to move right off the bat) than other Figuarts.

The other six pictured arrived last week from AmiAmi but I'm just getting to them now. Outside of some loose feet on Groundain and a loose left hip on Scorpion Zodiarts, all are pretty fun. I thought I had ordered the Ixa w/o the stand, but I ended up with the version that does come with it, to my pleasant surprise.

I guess that is the cost of getting items for the prices they offer. I don't think any of us ordering like it but I, for one, understand how it happens and that they have stores to run. I've never had an item canceled but I do always click the cancel order thing if something does happen to be out of stock.

It looks like Kamen Rider Gaim Jinba Lemon Arms is confirmed! Unfortunately it's a Tamashii Exclusive. It's going up for preorder on may 12th for 4,860 yen.

I am glad to see it looks like they went with swappable armor plates this time. I understood not making armor swappable for the S.H. Figuarts, but I didn't think Bandai would be nice enough to do this given their past track record.

Jinba Gaim looks amazing!! Love how detailed those lockseeds are. It's unfortunate that he is a Tamashii Exclusive though that won't stop me from getting him. Wonder if they'll do the Energy Riders and Gaim's other power-ups.

I want a Baron Mango arms.

Wow, they managed to make the raiment pieces look less bulky then they do in the show.
