They might do that but they'll probably be exclusives, hell if I don't see a joker undead released at all I'ma be pissed :lol.

As much as they love Blade, Im sure we will see any forms we can get. :lol

I hope so but sadly that's a minus for Garren King form, Leangle Jack Form, & Leangle King Form as the ONLY figuarts ever released for Kamen Rider are ones from a show or movie :(.

I just got my Black/Mammoth Ranger in the mail today and I can't figure out what hand b is for (the right hand that is slightly open but can't hold a weapon with the thumb up) is it maybe for when the rest of the Power Blaster comes out?

Actually it's for holding the Power Ax in gun mode.

No, that one is fully open and has an extended trigger finger. This hand is barely open at all.

gotta look at reviews online man.

I'm sure others may have mentioned this already but Amiami sent out payment requests for Kabuto over night. Paid mine up and am very excited to have a proper Tendo in my collection :D The 1.0 was just not a great toy.

Indeed, I'm on the Bluefin bandwagon for it so I gotta wait till the end of next month to get my 2.0 Kabuto, so glad I never knew about S.H Figuarts till the better stuff was being released :lol.

Bluefin not saying anything about the Gaim figuarts worries me since we are almost into April. If they don't say anything soon then I guess I will try to pre-order them on another site. Japanese importing cost more then buying them retail in my opinion.

Checked both a video review and the gallery on here but didn't see it being used. Maybe I need to check again or look at more reviews.
I think at this point it's safe to say they probably won't/can't bring them over, I just wish we knew why.

It's cause Kamen Rider doesn't have the same widespread popularity as Power Rangers does so they aren't gonna try to distribute every Kamen Rider Figuart even if it's retail. I see why cause there were only two adaptations and only Dragon Knight was good. Also Barricade, http://shishioh.info/SHF_MAMMOTHRANGER.php this has good info on which hands do what for the Mammoth Ranger Figuarts figure.

I'm sure if they weren't going to do Gaim they would have said something by now.

I really don't see any reason why they couldn't considering they have brought everything retail over.

It's probably due to two things: 1. the figuarts got announced for release right near the airing of the first few episodes or 2. cause of the lower popularity Kamen Rider has to Super Sentai cause Sentai has Power Rangers to boost distribution availability whilst Kamen Rider only has Dragon Knight as a decent adaptation & most of the Ryuki riders are exclusives.

If that last part were true though, they would have either cut down on or just flat-out stopped releasing Kamen Rider figures here a long time ago. Plus according to what Bluefin's been saying, only the MMPR-related releases have been selling well out of the Super Sentai-related releases they've been able to work with.

They release the past Kamen Rider figuarts in the past, I see no reason why they can't release Gaim figuarts. They can release Ultra Act Ultraman Ginga and Ultraman is just as niche as Kamen Rider.

Hell my Kamen Rider 1 is a Bluefin release, and nobody knows him in the states unless you're a fan of Kamen Rider outside of Dragon Knight or Masked Rider.

or they know him from the release of kamen rider the first stateside.

Fair point.

I do think Bluefin is going to release Gosei Knight and the Gokaigers as metallic paint sets at the comic con.

Man I hope so. I really want a complete set of Gokaigers.

I've seen Bluefin more often than not be quiet on things they can't release than with things they can. It's like if they can't they try to ignore its existence

So I do not see it as a good sign at all.

Bluefin said that there's not much demand for post-MMPR stuff. So there's a slim chance that we might not get the Kyoryuger figuarts. I would like to buy Kyoryu Gold and the other team members without paying so much for them on the after market. I seen Kyoryu Blue and Green go for over $95 - 150 on other websites.

Thanks but still nothing showing this hand https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bj3LHk7IAAEuYkX.jpg
Best I can assume at the moment is a roll call pose since it can't hold anything but footage is too grainy for me to tell.

That looks like a "I have my weapon drawn and have it pointed at you!" type hand. You got a Figuarts sword handy to test that?

The hand is barely opened, there's no way anything thicker than an advent/rouse/decade card could fit in there.

It must just be some sort of pose hand then. I don't own the figure so I couldn't say personally, I'm just going off of a quick Google image search.

I'm guessing that's the RangerSlinger hand. I've tried the other hands for the Slinger, and it's too loose. So I gather that's for that. I'll give it a try, and get back to you. You should try it for yourself.

The instructions should say what each hand is for, but we're renovating and the room with my Mammoth Ranger box is stored is inaccessable at the moment to check.

My guess would be its to grip the Howling Cannon.

Anyway, I'm going to have a whine about Mandarake Fukuoka here because I'm not sure it deserves its own thread and everyone usually chit-chats about Mandarake here. Bought myself a GekiTouja and thought "Great! I really wanted him!", a day later I get the e-mail Order Confirmation and they suggest I change to DHL because it works out cheaper and I think "That's so helpful of them!" and request the change. The next day, no reply but my GekiTouja- the exact same GekiTouja right down to the Item Number- is back up for sale. "What? That's bizarre" I think, but I re-order the GekiTouja and in the Notes I explain I'm pretty certain this is the exact one that I already have an Order Confirmation for. Anyway, three days later, no reply, I re-message them about changing to DHL. Two days later, I get the Order Confirmation for my first GekiTouja again... Still with EMS and with the exact same message suggesting I change to DHL. Ugh.

I'm gonna be so fucking happy when they make Gekiranger figuarts, I'd kill for a Geki Violet right now or hell even some GoGo V action with added Titanium Ranger as a USA exclusive release.

And Kabuto is on his way! Should have him Monday!

Hey guys I have another question about Mandarake...so, I had two things in one order from the same store...and I checked "Yes" on both to cancel if it's out of stock, and one thing was out of stock, but the other wasn't. I got a cancellation email...does Mandarake cancel the whole order, or just the stuff that's out of stock?

Yes they cancel the whole order if you check the box on either or both. That way you don't get stuck paying for shipping for one thing if say for instance you were trying to save on shipping by ordering several.

Alright, thanks for the help, Den-O! :D

(Now I gotta go back and reorder the other thing.)

I check the box off only if Im not totally sold on at least one thing in the order. Generally I order enough at once to be okay with something being cancelled. But I'm a greedy schmuck :lol

:lol

Trust us, we know considering we've seen your haul pictures :lol

Just wait til you see the one Im getting next week courtesy of Mandarake, Sentai Tamashii, and Amiami ;)

Oh, man, I cannot wait for this gallery!

Grandma said this...it will be tighttttttttttttttttttttt.
