I almost forgot about the drop tonight until a few minutes before, didn't feel like rushing to fire up my laptop, so I decided I'd get Accel on my tablet or I'd just wait a few hours for a restock. After some initial trouble logging in to AmiAmi, I was able to order Accel, plus Bats & G Fighter without issue.

I thought about throwing in King Joe, but my "mehness" over the SHF Ultras & desire to use funds elsewhere left that one on the chopping block.

Got my Accel, I'm happy :)

I had a meeting an hour after the pre-orders usually go live so I had to do this while riding a bus, thankfully it all went well. Aside from waiting for the pages to load with my crappy connection, that was scary as hell! :lol

Agh, dang. Missed the window. Oh well, he's retail so if he doesn't pop up again luckily I can go to a place I know will get him in-stock.

Accel pre-orders are still open at HLJ as far as I can tell. I think it's because they never front-paged the pre-order; I kept having to do a search using "Kamen Rider Accel" until the listing showed up last night.

I'm torn between the almost guaranteed pre-order at NY and the slightly less expensive, but not-so-guaranteed preorder at HLJ.

I'll admit, I've been weary of NY over the past year or so tbh. Their customer service isn't that good.

Took this pic last night after reorganizing my shelves while waiting for Accel's preorder to drop. I'm still kinda amazed that all of this grew from randomly buying Joker one day.

My entire Gaim Figuart collection (which I only barely fit into the lightbox):

The only series rivaling Gaim as far as figuarts representation in my collection is Ryuki, which I suppose is fitting since they're my two favorite series.

Very nice setup you did with the Gaim Figuarts.

Would you do one with Ryuki and the contract monster as well would like to see that?

I'd do that too, but I honestly don't think it'd all fit lol. Plus I still have to get Magnugiga, and I'm debating on whether or not I'll get the Survive contract monsters.

Nice shot, very impressive collection there. :thumb:


On another note, I've been thinking about getting into some of the Den-O figuarts. How well do you guys think they stack up to releases like Gaim, Drive, or the SS riders?
