Eyes

Mine is in the state at least, hope it comes Monday

I want Shinkocchou Gekirangers.

How would that be any different from regular GekiRangers?

Or do you just want the packaging style of Hibiki and Kabuto for the GekiRangers?

Better form and joints. The subtle stuff. ;)
I really dont care about packaging.

I don't see any difference in the joints between them other than Kabuto has Figma wrists and no one else does.

The point of that line is detail, the gekirangers have really simple suit designs so there isn't any point, if anything only Rio and mele would suit nicely to that line.

The joints are the same. The difference is the proportions. And zero of the Sentai figuarts thus far have had that type of hip system that they've been using for the Shinkocchou line. I don't really have a problem with the way they've been proportioning Sentai figuarts in general. They're usually a lot less bulky and more streamlined by nature. Sentai villains could make it in, but I doubt the heroes would.

THIS! So much this! I will throw extra money at Bandai if they finalize Rio and Mele into the Shinkocchou line.

I'd really like them to revisit the Shinkengers and Gokaigers, though. They come off as very anime-esque in proportions. Standing Gokai Blue next to Blue Buster just makes him seem... off. He's not much bigger than SHF Sailor Mercury.

True. But I still want that tech incorporated for the Gekirangers. Rio and Mele too if Bandai wants to.

I want a ShishiRanger, the Gingamen, GoGo-V, Goseigers and Gekirangers.

Too bad that'll be but a vain wanting.

So...annoying thing, I was just opening up some figuarts I hadn't got around to yet and opened up skyrider...the first thing that happens is his leg pops off and the joint snaps :<

I really like Skyrider's design so this was like a slap to the face.

Now I ask the question do you think they'll keep up the pattern of releasing a rider with his bike? Because I'd rather wait for something like that instead of buying a new skyrider at the prices he's going for atm.

On another note anyone got any tips on maybe repairing the leg hip joint?

Yeah, my Skyrider is experience the same loose leg issue ShinkenRed had when his leg snapped off. I am afraid to touch him and GokaiRed.

Drive figuart looks very nice. I can't wait to pre-order him on NY when he goes up for pre-order.

All these joint issues are making me nervous. Starting to worry about my new Gokai Green, he's my first & only Gokaiger.

So i sorta fixed skyrider's leg with epoxy...but I couldn't stay 24 hours in place to tighten the joint so his leg is a bit loose, but hey he can still pose like a boss so it's all good!

I'll probably preorder Drive from AmiAmi since Bluefin most likely will not be getting him.

At least yours didn't have a second piece that broke off somehow, causing the leg to be unfixable....... r.i.p. Shinken Red's leg :(

Interesting. Toku Taku shows they have Femme and Side Machine as currently in stock. I sort of wish I'd ordered from there. Has anyone seen other stores with them in hand yet?

Just yes.

NY is processing my order with Bujin Gaim (& Kurokage)!

Bujin Gaim is out?!? I need to get him.

Anyone know when Drive goes up for preorder?

He's tempting, but I don't think he's worth the $97 they were asking for him earlier.

I guess the first week of December. I hope December 1st since I don't have finals on Monday.

Luckily I got him for 5280.

Not an option seeing as I missed the preorder window.

Figuarts Kiwami Arms is instock on HobbySearch if anyone needs to grab one still.

Yeahh just to confirm on that, I just got the payment request for mine from HobbySearch.

Ayup. Looks like Kiwami is inbound from N-Y. Nice.

Amami requested payment for it yesterday and mine just shipped this morning.

I won't get a payment request on Kiwami until next week when Injustice Batman shows up. Boo.

And I have to wait until whenever the hell PAK Roxas comes in... Ah well, if I shipped now EMS it'd be arriving when I'm out of town anyways.

Oh ouch, looks like some Kiwami figuarts have cracks in them.

Just got the request from HLJ and paid it off. Hope I don't get the cracked armor because Kiwami was one of my most wanted ones.

Same here!

Wait, the what now? Cracked armor? Crap...

Any sites will do Black Friday sales on S.H Figuarts (both for Toku and non Toku)?

Doubtful as nothing went on sale last year.

HLJ does, I think for a week. Though the good SHF usually sell put instantly so its usually just one or two lame ones on sale.

It's not explicitly a Black Friday sale but Hobby Search currently has one of their bargain sales going, and they infrequently update with new items as old ones sell out. Last time I checked they still had one of the No Piracy guys and the Akibaranger Season 2 cast.

I'm going to have to get those Anti-piracy guys some day soon.
