This isn't really news yet, but news of upcoming news. Figure King no.177 will have SH Figurarts Wizard Flame and Water images. Both are featured on the cover but they're are really tiny due to most of the cover being about Macross. However it does give us a glimpse of the coat tails. Looks like there are going to be options.

Oh man, the swirling coat tails on Water look really nice. I might have to get all of these if they look that cool.

Is that a 1/55 HIkaru VF-1J next to the 30th anniv YF-29?

Is Bandai doing some 1/55 reissuing, or is it just for the photo op?

I think it's just a photo op, but interesting how they didn't use the VF-1S since the YF-29 30th anniversary is based on the Jolly Roger motif...

I just realized that from now thru April I have 3 non exclusives. And technically Black Condor is, but bluefin is helping out a brother! And chances are with beet & stag buster and most the Zyurangers it could that way for all of 2013!

Even if the rest of the Zyurangers ends up being exclusive, I wouldn't worry about it. Blu Fin knows how popular they are in the states, they'll probably work with Toei and Saban to ensure that we can get them easily somehow.

This is the latest message from Bluefins' Facebook page:


Any theories on who "she" is?????

What is up with the sudden surge of web exclusives? First Ryuga, then Water Form Wizard and now Riderman.

From this point forward the only non exclusives will be main Riders basic forms and Red sentai. That is it!

What sucks about all this is im in way too deep to back out now. But all these exclusives are killing my damn wallet! March is going to be a stupid expensive month. I gotta get Gavan, Skydine, Groundine, and Riderman. Before this year is out I still have Black Condor, Cell, Buster Yellow and Deka Green. Thats not even counting the normal releases.:mad:
