You know what sucks about all the announcements? Now we have to play be the waiting game for them to pop up for pre-order. I want to pre-order Winspector now dammit.

Still no payment request from AmiAmi for chaser. They swamped or something? This is pretty weird from them. Not expecting them to screw me, but I'd like to get him out as soon as possible. I need my own Chase!

EDIT:

And, speak of the devil. Finally came in. Yay!

So true. I can't get too excited about all the great reveals until we have dates and pre-orders open. But hey, it's great to know these figures got so far as opposed to never existing at all. They will come out eventually, that's what I hope.

@Topic: After they kinda did nothing yesterday HLJ finally put Rider 3 up, pre-ordered.

S.H. Figuarts and S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou aren't the same lines anymore. They're treated separately like normal Figuarts and ZEROs are.

Got payment request for Mashin Chaser and Ride Chaser ^_^

When do Exclusives usually close order? I'm probably going to order Tridoron, but I want to make sure I have the cash together. Would love to know approximately how much time I have.

AmiAmi order paid for as well. Mashin Chaser, Ride Chaser, Skydain & Guard Chaser incoming.

Usually a month or two before release date. There's no set date on the Tridoron yet but then when there is it'll pop up here: http://p-bandai.jp/tamashiiwebshouten/item-1000096701/

That's what I thought. Knew about the dates on the webshop, but didn't really know about the normal timetable. I've got some time it seems.Definitely gonna grab it some point soon.

7500 yen shipping, I'm pretty good at guessing apparently.

I'm still waiting impatiently for AmiAmi or HLJ to post Kamen Rider Sigurd and the Chaser accessories, although from what I've been reading, apparently, it's something of a lottery.

(I almost purchased DX Bison King from CSToys - it seemed reasonably-priced! - and then I saw the shipping charge. Now, I don't know what to expect from most of these non-US sellers. But yes, I'm trying to break my BBTS addiction, at least where exclusives are concerns.)

AmiAmi and HLJ don't carry the exclusives. Toku Taku and Nippon-Yasan do, though.

That won't happen. They are so called "Web Exclusives", meaning they will only be sold by the Tamashii Web-Shop in Japan for people in Japan. That's why you have to use a middleman like Nippon Yasan or Toku Taku for those. They will buy the item, then sell it to you. HLJ and AmiAmi are export-retailers, they don't work like that.

But both Nippon Yasan and Toku Taku are very reliable, you can order the items there like you would on HLJ or AmiAmi, it's really easy.

The accessories and Sigurd are just normal web exclusives so ny and any middleman can get them. Only the second release of baron lemon energy was a lucky draw that comes to mind recently.

Why is it upside down?

Thanks for the list. I tried out Toku Taku, then ran into a PayPal wall; looks like they require people to have a PayPal account, and won't take debit/credit-through-PayPal. (Long story; basically, I can never update my PayPal info, and their customer service is powerless to help.)

I'll console myself with Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive. TIRE KOUKAN!

Mashin Chaser, G-Stag, Reddle and Juspion are all on the way, and I just bought myself Renewal Shadow Moon from Midtown Comics in NY today. Pretty fun month for figuarts to me.

Hey hey Wrath, good to see you here! <<<PsychoGrey
Sweet haul. And picture looks right side up to me.

Damn another great SHF haul. Wish I could get those Beetleborgs right now....sometimes later perhaps.

And I think I got my ShadowMoon from there as well. Was it during the up to 40% off sale? Don't think he was part of that on account he was new.

Edit: you said today, so guessing not. Sorry.

It's probably my biggest Figuarts haul to date and there was no way I was letting those Beetleborgs slip by. Juspion was kind of an impulse buy because I thought the figuart looked fantastic and despite knowing nothing about the show, I thought he'd be a fun addition to the collection.

Have you tried Nippon Yasan yet? I believe they do work with cards through PayPal, just try it.

That's odd... you both spelled "B-Fighters" wrong in the exact same way. Weird.

Haven't gotten around to watching B-Fighter yet so they're still Beetleborgs for now lol

Well you can't really watch it unless you know Japanese, they only subbed the first 5 episodes or so. RAW's for the entire show are available though. Bummer, what I saw so far was really entertaining.

And I'm just messing with you guys, it is whatever you want it to be, if you want them to be the Beetleborgs go for it :)

I guess that is the advantage of never being into Beetleborgs, I had no problem calling it B-Fighter the moment I learned that was its name. The only time I use the borg word is when I need to clarify what series I am talking about to the uninformed masses.

Man I wish someone would sub those series, especially the first one since I have yet to see it. I only have the Region 2 DVDs for Kabuto.

Yeah I would love to have the entire show subbed, as I said what I saw was really entertaining and I would watch the whole show if I could. I tried watching the RAW's but I cannot make cheesy conversations up at that speed.

I can never remember watching Beetleborgs but it must have been a thing around here when I was a child, because I got a figure of the Blue Beetleborg as a gift when I got into elementary school.

And I found it in the attic after the SHF Blue Beet was announced and proudly renamed it „Blue Beet“.

I got over Drive for this team.http://i61.tinypic.com/2ptbj3c.jpg

Hey guys, when did Kamen rider 3 go up for preorder? I totally missed it, thought it was gonna go live today since it's the first of the month on amiami, but like it's already closed.

Got the old nigo and cyclone though.

MetalHeroesBFighterBorgsSuperSentaiRider........Saban....:lol

I just pay off my Chaser pre-order from Ami Ami today. Man this figure look amazing from the Japanese reviews that I watch on Youtube.

Went up on Friday sorry :(

Hey guys, where would be the best place to track down a Shinkochu Seiho/Renewal Kabuto? Missed the train hardcore on that release and I'm not kicking myself for it. I know Mandarake has one but was wondering if anyone knew of other places.

Hobby Jungle.

They don't seem to have one right now, but they get new stuff every day and you can see what's new directly from the front-page, so just lurk around and look out for Kabuto.

https://photos-6.dropbox.com/t/2/AAC...68&size_mode=2just got Kuuga, is it me or Alternative Zero is really short as a figuarts?

Thanks so much for this. I remember reading on here several people ordering from them before just couldn't remember what the site's name was since I believe people abbreviate it as HJ at times.

aww nooo, that's so strange usually it's the first day of the month right? Just checking btw it was only the bike/nigo and 3 that went up for normal sale preorders right? Kamen rider wise that is.

Thinking that I might just hold off on trying to find a preorder and just buy it in a shop when I go to Japan in November.

HLJ still has pre-orders open for Rider 3 if you don't mind pre-ordering there.

You're welcome, I hope you find a Kabuto soon :)

It sure is. It could be accurate though.

Appreciate it! I think I'm preordering die-hard wants next time.

Has anybody's Mashin Chaser actually shipped from AmiAmi yet? I paid right away but they've still not sent it on its merry way and they're usually pretty quick with that.

What's a good site to find large stock pose pictures?

Mine got marked as shipped this morning (6/1/15)
