Given that Kiwami Arms was reported with a lot of QC issues, I think the prices drop seeing that the demand for him is not very high.

Hey, I'm not into Gaim, but even I don't like Kawami that much. And what kinda name is "Kawami"? Kachidoki, now that's where the action is! :p

Hey! >:|

Kachidoki is the better figure though. And so far my favorite Gaim Figuart next to Melon Energy. Lemon I can't judge because mine's still not here.

But I was disapointed with the Kiwami release too. It's not the QC issues since mine's okay, but things like the visor and the thick plastic on the chest that clouds the design underneath. And the cape is meh.

I would understand anyone who passes on this and gets Kachidoki for a super Gaim instead.

Ah, thanks for explaining that. I'm still in the midst of my (very slow) learning process. I definitely have'n't managed to calculate the cost-effectiveness of acquiring these from other sources.

BBTS actually did finally put up the preorder for Machine Chaser and the Ride Chaser today (they spelled both "Mashin.") They never - as far as I know - put up a preorder for Gaim Kiwami Arms, but he appeared in their store one day (a couple of days after I'd broken down and bought a more expensive one off Amazon.)

I don't think the implications of the "Bluefin is done with toku" thing really sunk in for me until now. *shiver*

Isn't Mashin the correct spelling?

It's written on my Break Gunner-box that way, so I would say yes.

As far as I'm aware, yes. It's a Japanese pun, I believe.

Ok, I was just wondering why the consternation with that spelling.

Horray for Blue Beet almost being out.

Yes! He looks amazing.
