I bought a five-drawer desk organizer a while back to keep things like that in. Stands go in one drawer, weapons and general accessories in another, Figma bags in the third, and I keep Figuarts hands and small accessories (like cards) in individual bags in a fourth drawer.

I keep my stuff like hands and weapons in the box. However I'm running out of room to put my boxes since I only have one shelve for my figuarts and my other figures.

Quart size Ziplock bag.

I keep them in the box but man I ran out of room for the boxes, I had a drawer dedicated to them that filled up, but I do keep a lot of things that I need to get rid of.

keep in box.

I have a small zip lock bag for each figuart for the hands and accessories. That way I can see what I want and quickly grab it. I store all those bags in a big tub with a locking lid. I have no need for boxes, I actually need to throw all mine away in the morning.

Keep them in the box, and put the pile of boxes next to a shelf.

For MonsterArts and effect sets, I have a combinable set of containers I keep them in.

FOr Figuarts, I keep their accessories in their specific boxes. I just can not justify throwing out the boxes for various reasons.

I never like throwing away my boxes. I do put some back in their boxes when I run out of room for stuff.

I actually just did that with my entire Shinkenger collection. Although, I might just try to sell them off. Of course, I haven't had any luck with getting rid of my Boukengers...

Wasn't sure where else to post this, but I've got something that's been on my mind for a while.

As I understand, the Dragon Knight line was based on the old Ryuki R&M figures; coincidentally, the R&M Darkraider works very well for SHF Knight Survive.

My question is, would/does the Wing Cycle from the DK line work with Figuarts without looking too out-of-scale. I know that it's an original fabrication rather than something repackaged from the R&M line, but as I recall it was still in the same scale as they were.

I thought the Dragon Knight figures were around the same height as the current Power Rangers stuff?

I hate to sound stupid but how much is 6,790¥? When I pre-order Black Beet, I forgot to set everything on NY to be in USD.

Thanks for your help. I would have pay him off earlier but I kinda forgot about it. I have enough in my bank account to pay him off, so I can't wait for NY to ship out soon.

The Dragon Knight toys are absolutely nothing like the R&M or Figuarts lines in scale, as they were a 3.75" tall line.

Same. But some accessories stay out for the figures displayed. My first Sentai Figuart Shinken Red still has most of his stuff in a Ziplock. Everyone else's is back in their box save the parts I want to swap.


As an aside, I recently got Gokai & Bouken Reds. As usual, my prized Gokai Red has the Shinken Red disease, i.e. loose left hip swivel & new to my Figuarts, a weak right hand assembly. Trying to work it out with Amazon, but dread losing him due to his high aftermarket cost. Got him $65 Primed so mulling over it to see what to do when options are offered. Open to suggestions if I keep him.

Well darn.

Random question - did anyone with the newer Gaim riders (Duke, the two-pack) experience looser ankle joints than the earlier figures? Mine can stand up & hold most poses so it's not bad or anything, but I noticed all three would lurch forward at the ankles and tip over if I left them in a certain position. I hadn't encountered that before with any other Gaim riders, so just wondering if anyone else saw that or if it's just a one-off for me.

I'm seeing that with the supposedly lighter Sentai figures, or at least that's been my experience.

It seems like NY has a chart error issue for me when it comes to paying off my pre-order for Black Beet. SHF Kamen Rider Gaim Orange Arms shows up in my cart and I can't remove it. I didn't even add the item in my chart. I send NY a ticket a while ago and no reply has been given.

Managed to grab Kyoryu Black and Pink on Mandarake for 8000 yen. I can finally complete my Kyoryugers. Now I just need to decide if I want to get the Gouraigers set to complete my Hurricangers. Nothing much in terms of Sentai or Kamen Rider releases that really interest me either.

Hope you get the Gouraigers, cause they're nice figures.

And I'm with you. Lately, there's been nothing to really get me excited for Figuarts, especially Sentai, my focus. Guess I'll see what the rest of the year has.

WTF nothing to get excited about? How bout every single Gaim release, which has been spectacular, Shinkocchou releases, and of course AVENGERS

Different strokes for different folks.

I'm pretty happy with what we've got with Gaim and I very much look forward to Shinkocchou Seihou Kuuga next month, but I can completely understand how people who are not that much into Gaim or Non-Toku SHF's had nothing to be really excited about. The Sentai-fans in particular, it's kinda ass that they don't get as much love as Kamen Rider.

Well, I picked up Abyss yesterday at the convention. I find myself asking: Why did I put him off for so long? Now that I have him in hand I'm noticing so much more details, such as the ShaUTa-like print on the undersuit. Plus I'm having too much fun playing with his shark fists. I may never put his regular hands back on, these things are wonderful!

I wonder if Skybite would pass as a decent Contract Monster...

I hate to say it, but I regret preordering Drive, Chaser, and Mach. :-(

Yeah, I'm just holding out for a cheap set of the Gouraigers. Haha.

I meant in terms of Toku-related releases. I'll be excited for future Gaim releases once Overlord Baron pre-orders go up. I haven't watched Drive yet so I am not too keen on collecting the Figuarts although Tridoron looks very tempting once it becomes available. I am definitely excited for the Avengers though, can't wait for the rest of the team to go up for pre-order. Can't forget DBZ as well but those are not toku-related.

I know what you mean. After I lost most of my interest in the show I also cancelled my pre-orders for those guys. Of course you can buy a figure for itself, the designs are still mostly great, but I personally don't feel like buying in a line were I don't like the characters at all, they are just too expensive for that.

And after I went full on fanboy on Gaim-Figuarts, it's kinda nice to have a break from monthly releases.

I plan on getting Drive, Mach, Chase, Type Wild and Drive's final form since I like those designs. I admit that Drive kinda sucks but at least the main characters look cool.

See, I have Decade, which to me is the worst KR series. I still wanted to own all of the main KRs regardless of the quality of the show. However, for some reason, I just do not want Drive.

For me, I'm only getting Drive, Mach and Mashin Chaser. Maybe Kamen Rider Chase if the design is good, but right now I don't have much faith in the designs from the show.

I just don't feel that invested in Drive, but I do like Gou and Chase.

any chance you would want to sell of the drive you pre ordered? if so how much?

Assuming that he's a retail release, I'll try to get Chaser. The rest really don't interest me at all.

If I decide to sell them off, it will be for what I paid for them and the shipping costs.

The other day some of my Figuarts fell over. Thankfully nothing broke (though I think I'll have to be mindful of one of ZO's antenna in the future), but I noticed this part amidst the figures that tipped over. It doesn't correspond to any of the figures that fell and I can't place the part either. Can anyone tell me which figure this is supposed to belong to?

Did you have any bikes in the display? It kinda looks like a kickstand or something.

Which figuarts fell? Could probably tell who it belongs to if we knew who took the plunge.

I only have Gills Raider on display right now. I haven't checked it yet since it wasn't directly near the ones that fell, but maybe I should double check...

Let's see...ZO, V3, Den-O Gun, Agito Burning, Kabuto renewal, Hibiki, Ouja and Putotyra.
