SHODO-XX3 is just about out, and the case distribution appears to have dupes of Gatakiriba and Emperor. I have to imagine this is one of those waves where the case distribution varies between cases, because it would make much more sense for the base forms to have the dupes

Here's another assortment with 2 ToTaBa and Kiva base from instead. All the new characters are shortpacked either way.

That makes sense. Or at least, I would have thought base Kiva and Ghost would be double-packed instead of Emperor. OOO makes sense since it's by far the most popular one in there

So there's a chance you can replicate Gatakiriba's actual powers
Neat

Oh man this is out? I hope the local Japanese supermarket gets them in. I really want to pick up Kiva and Ixa.

As I recall official release is meant to be tomorrow, but some places got it early as usual

Candy blog tonight was just a review of XX3 with no new reveals. Not even talking about the SO-DO wave that just got revealed.

Very weird! Very weird how the blog's been lately.

Next week they're revealing new Converge stuff

That's super odd, maybe g/d san is out or something.

I'm actually gonna be a little disheartened if the usual blog is gone for good? Like, I know it's just advertising for a figure line, but it was nice to read the commentary, interesting to see the development over time, and it felt like G/D-San were also genuinely having fun.

It also just straight up gave a lot more information! It would be a big loss for sure.
