Yeah, on one hand it's a bit more expensive and you have to pay upfront but on the other hand, you don't have to fight for pre-orders and potentially miss it. I don't mind Web Exclusive much anymore since I collect most of the MCU figures. Haha.

Yeah, I guess. I hope the aftermarket prices aren't too bad. I'm literally still trying to save up money for my other current pre-orders.

Was able to get Kamen Rider Poppy second-hand for a good price last week so I went snooping for Para-DX since he's the only rider I'm missing from Ex-Aid.

Nippon-Yassan was the only place that had him for an acceptable price along with non-JP Post shipping options (No DHL, but UPS) so I bit the bullet. Hope it works out. He'd be the priciest piece of the set if he ships successfully but given my love of Ex-Aid it'll be worth it.

A complete Ex-Aid Rider collection? Awesome!

Pics of the whole crew once assembled please.

Oh I plan to! With the exception of Genm I only focus on the base forms so while it's not technically a complete collection it's at least a complete cast which was the big aim for me. Hadn't completed a large cast in Figuarts form since Gaim.

Ex-Aid's a great choice for a full-cast collection. Such a striking set of suits!

I'm looking forward to it then! :)

I figured since you said "every Rider" not "every figure", but it's still impressive.

Agreed! Very unconventional design-wise for a Rider show but I fell in love with them rather quickly once the show aired.

Oh if we're doing that I'll need to post a pic of mine. Finally completed the set over Christmas thanks to XW1n5t0nX.

Same. Of course then I wound up losing my entire Gaim collection so I've had to start *that* over again... and then Gaim himself's belt broke.

Given how messed-up things have been, I was surprised and almost* pleased to get a shipping notice on Figuarts Zero-One from Bluefin. I'm a little surprised this made it to their Anaheim warehouse from Japan.

* - The "almost" is because this is the one shipment I'd forgotten to update for COVID, so it'll be sent to my closed workplace unless I can get them to answer customer service e-mail on a weekend.

Wait, they're starting to ship Figuarts Zero-One? I'm wondering if the Cali lockdown orders eased up on them, they mentioned on their twitter accounts that they've had their stock in-warehouse for a while now but couldn't start shipping cause of the Covid stay-at-home orders. Granted I was fine waiting for the one I pre-ordered given the situation but I'll also be more than happy if I get that shipping notice in the future.
