Build Genius was also shown for, like, I wanna say 3 years until he was actually released? So I don't think this is necessarily a sign they're happening soon.

What do you mean? Magnum/Boost is the most prominent thing in all SHF Geats marketing so far

This Gavan is about 4 inches tall while SHFs are about 6 inches

Both Geats went up on tokullectibles. Not a bad price either

Magnum Boost (edit: it sold out)

I'm honestly convinced Amiami changed its preorder system to accommodate overseas fans.

The fact that they put releases up a day later than other retailers, changing the open window to a time that both coasts and JP can work with, re-opening preorders about a half hour or so after they close...

I missed both Geats SHFs when they went up at 9pm, decided to wait around on the site a bit and refresh occasionally and then boom - Both came back in-stock and I was able to snag them without a problem. I like this new Amiami.

I had the same experience with Shin KR, which also let me snag a Shin Evangelion. It's pretty awesome! Both Geats appear to still be up, too

Amiami did right by me with Don Momotaro, too. By the time I even knew I could order it, it was out everywhere, but Amiami had my back.

I did check to see if SHF Chainsaw Man was available, and that thing was gone.

Honestly it would make sense because I am pretty sure AmiAmi has a separate domestic site. Also looking at SHF Geats, the listing says it does not ship to Japan. lol. Missed out on Trunks but at least North American release should be easier to get. Tempted by Geats though even though I haven't watched any of the show but the suit design looks pretty cool.

Kind of? Easier to let their server handle the load of the local branch on release day and the export one the next day. And sure enough, I have less server errors and site crashes than before.

It is a very early morning time for me in Europe though, nothing going to bed a bit earlier can't fix, but the previous timeslot was better.

Can't complain though, got both Geats' and Chainsaw Man which is all I wanted.

Sorry for the double post, since I wasn’t on the hunt for this one I only realized it right now: Did AmiAmi not offer Seihou Dyna? Or did the listing vanish like the OG Ultraman one did?

Anime-Export doesn’t seem to have it either.

...

I don't like this. And I will hate the day it happens with a figure I want.

Question for you all -- given how SHF definitely don't cover every single thing anymore and it depends a lot on popularity, how far do you think they'll take the Seihou Den-O line? At first I was inclined to believe that would have a billion releases because duh, Den-O, cash cow; but I'm also thinking like... I don't think anyone cares about the movie villains? Yuuki? G Den-O? Even Gaoh I can't see many people clamoring for.

I think they'll do the rest of the Den-O forms (in particular I see Climax being retail) and New Den-O, finally release that Zeronos Zero and maybe Deneb, maybe Nega Den-O as a Tamashii Nations exclusive; but especially with how they've dragged their heels I wonder how much else they'll do. It's surprising to me also that we've never seen a Zeronos Vega Form prototype

I feel comfortable saying Climax/Super Climax being released with a strong hope for Liner Form

Wing Form could be an exclusive
