I would say figuarts are meant for action heroes but then Love Live and Idol Master got figures...

the mew it comes looks better then the one that came with mewtwo

Holyshit!

Yep getting those! Any release details outside of Japan with the announcement? Probably not, but worth asking.

Not yet, only other info so far is that Japanese preorders open at the end of the month (and then run until the end of March), it's out in July and costs 7500 yen (which is pretty reasonable for a 2-pack I think).

I'd like to think at the very least an American release is a given judging by the way they treated the others. Hopefully they'll announce them soon because this time I'll get someone to middleman me them from the US :lol

Normally, I would 1000% be with you. Always tired of seeing a Nendoroid version announced instead of a properly scaled action figure. Really drives me crazy considering how many there are.

Pokemon's the single exception I've made (so far..) because of this:

I look at those Nendos and think of this. That's what they remind me of and I love that nostalgia. Still totally understand your complaints - I'd like some real figures in addition.

(As a complete aside: Thank you! I learned something today. Had no idea what "usw" meant. :lol Neat.)

Giving how the last two went, we probably won't find out until July itself where they'll suddenly be available in high quantities on the Pokemon Center website lol.

That's a reason I can understand. But for me, I usually depict them as they appear after you talk to them and they challenge you to battle :lol

Sorry about hat, my German was leaking through :lol

That Mew looks tempting, but I think the Mew that came with Mewtwo is good enough to sate my needs~

My problem with these Nendroids is that, aside from Cynthia, I've only been interested in the Pokemon, and that's still the case here...

New artwork of Red and Pikachu from Hitoshi Ariga:

Kotobukiya will use this artwork for an ARTFX-statue.

Looks pretty cool IMO!

I like that its the original Red design rather than the remake one. Might bite on the statue depending on how much it is.
