We've gotten movie-exclusive riders before, such as Nadeshiko and Yuuki. Gaim pretty much prints money at this point, so I'm sure we'll get Figuarts of Fifteen, Mars, and Kamuro at some point.

I think figures normally go up for preorder about a week after official announcements/images drop.

I hope you guys are right, I don’t want to get my hopes up just yet, but man FiguArt’s of these Riders would be so awesome.

Then its happy hunting for me I guess.

Hopefully they'll keep a steady supply of Kiwami coming out. With the exception of Ryugen, all the Gaim figuarts have sold out in seconds and HLJ tends to be a bit hit-or-miss with fulfilling orders.

I actually buy all my FiguArts (and other stuff) at HLJ, and they never disappointed me. Even Orange & Banana-Arms that I snagged roughly two weeks before release came in without any problem and with the bonus parts.

They tend to go to the "Order Stop"-statues really quickly, true, but you get enough chances before release to pre-order the item.

Most FiguArts I have on preorder where "Order Stop" when I found them, but every time I had the opportunity to get one because the status switched back to pre-order. You have to be consisted on HLJ, you always have the chance to still get the item if its not released. Afterwards? Yeah, sold out. Had the problem with the Kiwami-Lockseed, I was too dumb to pre-order it in time and now it’s gone forever. I had to pay a lot more for it on eBay -.-

You're lucky then. I preordered Baron and Gaim as soon as they went up on HLJ but they didn't fulfill my Baron. Right now they're 2:1 of orders fulfilled vs. orders not, despite getting in just as the window opened. I mostly use them for backup now and drop it if I can score one elsewhere, like I did for SHF Kachidoki on Amiami.

I ordered on AmiAmi too when I was new to collecting, but they really take the cake when it comes to "Sold Out". Every second item on this site is sold out, and every item that goes up for pre-order and has some name to it is gone in a few hours.

It’s because of that I switched entirely to HLJ. True, AmiAmi has better prices, but in the end that doesn’t matter too much because I buy in euros anyway, and I really like HLJ’s private warehouse.

I’m sorry that they didn’t send you your Banana Arms, I heard other stories of them canceling orders, but I have no idea why, I buy there for over a year now and nothing like that ever happened to me.

the Euro to JPY conversion is better then the USD. But moving from Korea to Germany really made me take a step back and consider my spending. I could find all types of stuff from Japan pretty cheap over there, but here everything has to be imported in (unless there is a hobby shop somewhere that I don't know of) and that gets expensive.

Yeah, I have to import everything myself, but I don’t buy stuff that’s too expensive, FiguArts and MonsterArts are the most expensive things I import.

And I only buy the ones I like, I don’t collect for completion :)

Yeah, I couldn't care less if they released him, as outside of Femme and Ryuga, I'm not into the movie only characters.

I'm more interested in Kamuro. Mars is neat but I'd much rather have Fifteen.
