Damn I though that was Bandai tease us. Look great def gonna get Saber figuarts when goes up for preorder.

Still not a fan of the head design, but the body is growing on me more. I am now going from skipping to on the fence from looking at this custom.

How hard/likely would it be to get a Jackal Raider SHF? I mean, Bandai didn't just create a fully wearable 1/12 Raidriser for no reason, right?

Jackal Raider is mostly the AIMs suit with a new torso, hip armor, shoulder, and helmet. The rest can just be a remold.

Minor suit for a minor character... don’t like its chances. If Naki doesn’t have much of a chance I don’t think Jackal does.

Nippon Yasan opened up pre orders for Shining Hopper and OOO Tamashii combo

Wooo boy that Tamashii Combo markup. That’s a lot of fun to look at.

Yeah... I'm going to stalk mandarake in November to see if I can get for a better price, but if not then oh well. So-Do is good enough for me.

Plenty of Rabbit Dragons dropped to the 5K yen price recently. Personally not interested, but just letting anyone know if they want one.


Wait, that might be the reason why...

Imo it’s because of Cross-ZBuild. There’s a big market for a Sento/Banjou fusion form, and as long as both exist; Cross-ZBuild is ultimately the most desirable one for a lot of reasons. For kind of similar reasons I absolutely expect 01 Shining to drive down the aftermarket price of Assault Shining by A LOT, though I doubt it would have been very desirable to begin with.

That said, a lot of Tamashii exclusives tend to go for low prices eventually; even Genm! The highest recent one that comes to mind is Diend, who even so only hovers around 8000 yen.

This pleases me greatly. I'd love to get Shining Assault sometime, have it displayed next to Thouser.
