Speaking of Dragon Ball figuarts, they never released Bardock right? Kinda confused if it was a thing or if I am mistaken. I think I am mistaken but correct me if I am wrong folks.

Perhaps, but I consider her attack to be far more important.

There's a FiguartsZERO Bardock (who hasn't been released either), but no there isn't an articulated version in existence as far as we know.

Bardock seems like a no-brainer to me but the demand might just not be there. Same for Turles really.

I'm in the opposite camp, but then again Mercury is a character that I will gladly buy every version of that they release.

Kinda nervous they haven't so much as shown off a prototype of the Crystal version...

I will wait when they give us Figuarts on the older Macross stuff. Anything after Macross Plus is a mixed bag to me.

Also Justice League though I think we've seen these before:

I can't help but feel like SHF's Batman looks a bit off and that the Mafex one looks a bit better. But I'll probably still go with SHF for Justice League this time after going Mafex for BvS.

So I'm just gonna say it, Batman, Superman, and Cyborg look utterly odd and weirdly proportioned in those photos.

That may be true, but at least Cyborg has a neck compared to the Mattel toy. :lol

Cyborg's limbs look a little skinny and Batman's head is just a tad too big.

If Ragnarok Thor comes with the hammer he's 100% bought. The old Thor isn't great and I do want to replace him, but getting a Thor without the hammer would feel a bit weird to me.

Hulk is also mighty tempting.

Apparently Frieza's finally getting the premium color treatment too.

Hulk and Thor look awesome. Don't really want them (just don't fit into what I'm looking for as representatives of the characters.. plus I already have them covered), but definitely cool.

It would be cool if he came with his hammer, even cooler if it came with a smashed one. lol. I definitely feel the same about the old Thor though and I always felt the Figma one was a bit of a better figure overall only with a not so great head sculpt.

Also, an interesting reveal:

Batman Ninja

I love that my first look at the Batman Ninja designs (which I had been looking for all day, but the only source I could come up with wouldn't load that page) comes from the action figures. :lol

Also, not at all surprised the Bandai America line is getting to Hit before Figuarts does. Maybe with Frieza re-releasing now they can finally properly move forward and start churning out more Super.

Wow, a third Naruto was just announced. I've been really tempted to pick up the second release every time I visit my local Toys R Us, because after seeing it in hand it became super clear just how much better it is than the original. Plus they just couldn't seem to get rid of them heh. But always held back by the cost.

And while this new one is more expensive... It's a Sage Mode that actually comes with the cloak! Awesome! Price seems pretty justified there. Happily preordering this one.

Well my TRU just got in a lot of stuff. They have SS Vegeta, the video game Trunks, four Naruto dudes, the beig ground effects, yellow wave effects, Batman from TDK, Ryu, Chun-Li, and some other stuff today. They were also setting up a display case like B&N has.

Looks like Shenron is out, and some assembly is required:

Not sure if I was expecting him to be a bit bigger or not though:

You'll have to get creative but he's definitely poseable:

Donald's confirmed the next KH release for March. So getting one every two months basically, which should put Goofy at May. I can live with that. ^_^

Kind of a barebones release from the pictures so far though. Was hoping for some more expressions. Maybe there's more...

First look at Hulk from Ragnarok:

https://i.imgur.com/qN9Rezy.jpg

Looks like he'll be a web exclusive and at a whopping 16,200 yen, yikes. I wonder why he's priced so much higher than the first Hulk. Now I'm not too sure if I'll go for him or not. Hoping maybe Bluefin can bring it over or see how much Mezco's will be.

So I've been playing around with the new SS Vegeta I got last week and he is pretty awesome. My only negative is that I can't fit the blue or regular Vegeta heads on the body, which sucks since he only comes as SS. I really wish they could make it so all the heads are interchangeable between the releases.

That figure is not worth that price. Just for two weapons really? I think Bandai is getting greedier with marvel figures because marvel. Why people buy them so they think they can put a higher price on them. I though it was to much with the ironman and Spider-Man two pack but now I see this is the new way of getting more money. Glad I don't collect marvel figures.

Yeah, definitely. I'm a sucker for Marvel figures but at this point I pretty much have most characters represented. I'm still interested in that Ironman Spider-man two pack because their costs are too far off the others but this Hulk is a whole other price. Some people are thinking it's a two pack but I don't think there is any indication that it is one in that photo. Definitely hoping maybe Mezco will be more reasonably priced or else I just skip out on this Hulk.

At that price it needs to have an effects set at minimum

Preferably a Thor as well, lol

The newer figures are. Its just the SSB is the dated old mould.

Has there been ANY update on that high quality Garo figure they showed a prototype of earlier this year? Cause I am so ready to pre-order that thing it HURTS!

Nope, no updates, and you can ask about and discuss Garo-stuff in here, it's Toku ;)

Well, looks like Hulk will not be in a 2-pack with Thor, but they will both be web exclusives. There will also be a Thor with thunder effects bundle.

COOOL. I wants.
but probably won't be getting any time :(

Yep, Hulk looks amazing.

Not going to buy him though. Just too much for me.

Hopefully Thor with lightning will be the Bluefin release? Would finally be an effects bundle that would make sense at least.

What I am definitely getting, if weren't obvious enough, is Donald. Preordered him this morning without a problem. And all the official pictures show he does come with more than that initial wave and... it's alright. Good variety in facial expressions, but I kind of wish you could swap the eyes and mouths. I'd probably like to have him looking forward with his mouth closed, but not possible.. Oh well. Love the angry face though.

Thor looks fantastic, far better than the original. But unfortunately no hammer, no sale :(

Don't get me wrong I understand why he doesn't come with it, but the idea of buying a Thor without a hammer just feels wrong to me. The fact he's an exclusive also makes things a little easier to justify.

Everyone's going gaga over Hulk and Thor and I'm here like, "OMG MASTER ROSHI!!!"

Yup, too bad he looks kinda terrible. Those legs... ouch.

Oh wow, Bluefin is bringing Hulk over too. $135. Still too much..

And yeah, their Thor will have the lightning effects. That's a nice combo.

I also apparently missed they are bringing over the Kingdom Hearts SHFs. Cool.

Really? I think he looks great as he is original Roshi.

I'm not Kiwami but I sort of agree with them. Looking at this picture:

https://i.imgur.com/E6iXtIK.jpg

The legs look really odd with the way the sculpt stops at the knees because I'm pretty sure they didn't look like that in the anime/manga. I'm also not a huge fan of the way the torso looks. I understand the cuts are there for articulation but it looks odd as a result.

Odd, I don't remember the picture I saw having the knees like that. Well, whatever. I will still be getting him because it's Roshi. Although, I do hope they fix those, which they probably will as this is most likely a prototype with the final product being a good 3 years out.

Finally got around to opening my backlog of star wars shfs. It's kind of annoying the executioner comes with a carbine and pistol and is a normal release when the riot trooper came with neither and was a web exclusive. Also weirdly using the old trooper body with the smaller shoulders when the new officers came out the month before.
