There isn't a single Hibiki figuart? That's a shame.

Aye. It makes me quite sad, I love Hibiki's design, it's just really really cool. But given the general not so successful nature of the show and it's own toyline, Bandai is probably trying to not get burned by it again. Also would be the first main rider we'd get that wouldn't have some sort of clear plastic/compound eye effect on it I think (could be wrong), though his ongeki would at least have clear plastic heads.

I would LOVE to get a Hibiki figuart. Him and Bravo are all I need now.

Had they not yanked the director, sacked the whole creative team, and completely blown the plot for the second half of the series it wouldn't have been a bad as it turned out to be commercially. I love Hibiki and want Figuarts of any and all riders from it. But at this point I'm guessing he's at the bottom of their list :(

I'm sure we'll see Hibiki eventually though I'm starting to think he may end up web exclusive if Bandai doesn't have confidence in it due to the toys being a commercial failure. We're getting Figuarts Shin, at this point I don't think anything if off the table.

Oh man, Hibiki would look gorgeous if they do him with either translucent plastic or metallic paint.

I'm not sure how I'd like for them to do him honestly. Translucent plastic would be a terrible way to go, he would be way too fragile and the joints would all have to be a different material, it would look really bad. Metallic paint could be better, but it'd have to be done just right IMO.

And yeah, the fact that we are getting Shin as a figuart does show that Hibiki is a definite possibility (and isn't he a mass release?), but at the same time..the fact that we are getting Shin BEFORE Hibiki doesn't exactly bode well for everyone's favorite oni.

I doubt they'll release Hibiki as a TWE. So far it seems like only the movie-exclusive Showa riders will be getting that treatment, which makes sense. Other than them, every main rider's seen a mass release. Even riders like Sky Rider, who apparently is the least-liked of the Showas, and ZX, who was only featured in a TV special, saw mass release.

ZO and J will likely get a retail release when they get figuarts. Shin is not very popular which is why he is a web exclusive.

Anyone else seen this?

I could see a ZO and J two pack

Maybe now I can get Gokai Red at a decent price. :lol

I'm curious to know what the packaging will look like.

Is that from the Nuremburg Toy Fair?
I wonder how Bluefin will distribute them, I would rather get their original colors versus a metallic five pack.

Ya know, I suck. Called in for Chinese, and the guy said they're closing early for Chinese New Year.

No, it's the same picture from last year. There's been no word since then on how/if they'll be distributed, since yellow and pink were exclusives in Japan and they were before Bluefin negotiated all of the US distribution stuff.

Although considering "nobody in the US buys the girls" maybe they just won't bother with them.

Yeah, like 6 months ago.

So, I preordered Blue Spader at HobbySearch the first day it was available to preorder it.
I've been waiting for weeks for them to fill my ordered, and the bastards finally sent me an email saying they were shorted by their supplier and can't get any more and my order has been canceled.

:(

It's available on Amazon right now, I could have it in two days (Amazon Prime!), but I'm still sad about it. For some unjustifiable reason.

I doubt it since ZO and J are pretty different from each other. I can see Giant J being release as a Figuart Zero. It would be funny if they made J into a Ultra Act figure.

PteraRanger,Blue Rose,Dragon Kid,Android 18,American Yellow.

Biollante and Mothra.

So I was suppose to get Garren set from HLJ today but for some reason Fedex never delivered it and they've change the delivery date to NA. Has this happened to anyone?

Never ordered from HLJ and never had a figuart (or anything toku) Fedexed to me, so no. Sorry :(

While I cannot speak for FedEx, this just happened to me this week with UPS. For some reason, my package from Amazon arrived in CO and then was missorted and sent to SD. -_- I have no idea how that happened, but the worst part was UPS decided to then ship it back to CO using standard ground. As such, I did not get him until today instead of Tuesday like he was supposed to be here.

Maybe something like that happened with your package.

Do you guys think we will get Android Kikaider figuarts with the new Kikaider movie coming out soon?

Hope so.

I know I want it if it comes out.

Please and thank you.

That was basically my childhood.

Having worked at FedEx Ground, it might have been a address mixup as mentioned. Or got lost in the terminal, due to their sorting & labeling process. I've seen it happen. Almost all the time the QA cage is full of undelivered packages for some reason or other. But I can tell you this: they bust ass on the workers for missed parcel, and usually try to make it out the next available day if all is well. Call your local terminal and see wats happened. They might be able to help you. Sorry if I couldn't be of anymore help.

Thanks! Ill probably wait till tomorrow to see what happens then call them.


Hope that not what happened to mine...The last update actually said it at destination sort facility too


It good, thank anyway :)

Updated the checklist again. Realized I screwed up the blank (sorry!) and a few new things were added too - female MMPR Yellow, another Barnaby (no idea what's special here), and Lucario.

Lucario isn't actually on the checklist... and man, that thing has changed so much from the last time I bothered to fill one out. I no longer own so many Figuarts, it's crazy.

*facepalm* I had him on my personal, but not the blank... Fixed now.

Yeah it's just so massive now. Been looking at it since before I even started collecting. In fact, it's actually maintained as two separate files now for retail releases and exclusives as the file size just got too big for that certain imageboard site...

You forgot Mario.

Aha! You've also forgotten Revived Apollo Geist. The Toei Hero Net exclusive, you have the normal exclusive version on there

The official images of him haven't been posted yet... just that promotional flyer... (Nor do I normally do actual updating myself, just stitching and hosting.)

See above... Although that's one I wasn't even aware existed. Can I get a link to the ordering page for it? Might as well do this one then.

Revived Apollo was even released this month. The link to Toei Hero is dead now so this if the only official images available.

Thanks. Now are we good? :P

Damn this rabbit hole

Would anyone recommend the reissue of SH Figuarts Faiz (Blaster form)?
I see that AmiAmi is going to put him on pre-order soon and I cannot find any info on him.

I wonder if there are any improvements or it is just a straight reissue...

That is a nice looking figure.
