We'll see figuarts for stageshow Riders before we see Kiva.

I wish people will stop acting like SHF Kiva will never be a thing.

Especially with the Revival line doing characters that never had Figuarts before...

Yeah but it is fun to a degree.

Jar Jar Binks before Kiva.

The way things are right now that might actually be too hard to believe :lol

I'm not sure I truly believe we ever will get Kiva. Bandai hates me. :(

If Bruce Lee and Michael Jackson can get Figuarts anything is possible.

Hell, they released Hibiki earlier this year...

Do you mean the domestic release? Because I'm pretty sure he was out around August 2014 in Japan.

But I agree: Kiva will be made in this line sooner or later. Tamashii is fully aware that people will buy him just because he never had a SHF of his base form before.

This is all made worse by the fact that a new Figuarts Kiva would be utterly incredible given the detail put into Drive, Gaim, the renewal line, etc.

Did they ever release an S.I.C. Wizard Hurricane Style?

No, but they also never released or developed an SIC Accel.

Which literally keeps me up at night. T_T

Really? Why would it keep you up at night? Anticipating the release? I just want Wizard HS because it's green. That and Water Style looks horrible.

Because I have every form of W, plus Skull and Joker, and yet no Accel exists to complete the collection of heroism. And he's my favourite secondary rider.

EDIT: Wait, how did SICs get brought up?

They got brought up cause I couldn't find the SIC thread... >__>

Yeah it`s a few pages back. Or... one page back?

Ironically, or not, the last poster is me. Bitching about no Accel.


T_T

if thats even remotely true you really need to sort out your priorities!

That's a bit mean.... >__>

The word "literal" should not be used figuratively.

I know. -__-'

I, for one, literally only use the word literally when I know it will annoy language sticklers.

Something like that. (literally like that, actually)

Anyway, ugh, the worst thing is finding cool stuff online but having run out of money ages ago. The first release bonus Gaim stage was listed on Mandarake loose a bit ago for not too much, but since ordering just that would be stupid and getting other stuff would be out of my budget right now, I had to pass. Sucks. I really want to get that stage one way or another...

I also want the screen that came with Baron. And Baron. Oh these Gaim figuarts, just a taste and I can't get enough...

You have to swear that when you finally acquire it, you'll hold it up and cry, "This is my stage, now!"

Although maybe in Japanese would be preferable.

what's with the budget sticker one?

You're on a Toku board dude don't even try to put yourself on a different nerd standard.

I can use it however I please. :D

My man.

I was looking at the same stage. It's not a super want for me, but at $8 I was willing to toss it in with another purchase when the time came.

I hate that Baron's so expensive. He's more expensive than Lemon Energy Baron on average. He really should've got a rerelease, being almost as prominent as Gaim himself.

Looks like it's designed to have Gaim in his various forms on display, judging by the logos.

A world of facepalm.

I picked up the Decade Final Attackride card effect set. The set's instructions depict Decade Rider-kicking toward a stack of 10 cards. The set only contains three cards.

I then INSTANTLY lost the plastic Tamashii stage connector piece that came with the set, making the whole thing academic.

Budget sticker? It's a BD 15 label but the stands black is hard to match. The logos are all shiny gold like the stand tho.

I have one to represent the Gaim forms, Energy Riders and Knuckle, Gridon, Bravo and Kuro.

Ok, so the difference between Ankh Lost and Ankh Greed is...Wings?

Have you seen OOO? Ankh Lost has some unfinished purple segments on the head and right arm whereas Ankh Greeed is complete and does not.

I was looking at the figuarts on the auction bar to the right. *jerks thumb to bar*

Not Toku. You want this.

sheesh, it's been three years since I made it, which means it probably used my iphone 4 camera, but back then I did a video review comparing the three Ankh releases. I don't remember, but I assume I did some side by side comparisons of Lost and Complete.

Well then.

Was Den-O's Hana the only attempt Figuarts has made at selling a non-suited Sentai/Rider character? (Tackle, Riderman, and the broken-head Blade figures are the closest that are coming to mind.)

Well this happened

http://i57.tinypic.com/fekr9v.png

Guess I was right then. Looks like they charge on the month the pre-order deadline ends.

Do we know if this will affect everything moving forward?
Or is it just November and December?

I asked them but I cannot understand the engrish they responded with.

What did their reply say?

Seems to be the case. Some people assumed it was just for more popular items, but I just got a payment request for Cure Echo and the Precure are typically not huge sellers. And yeah, her orders close next week.

Well, guess I have to cancel half of my orders for October now because it seems like NY will charge me for Omnimon next month.

I'm sick and tired of this bullshit. We all know that this occurs because Premium Bandai changed stuff, but for Christ's sake NY fucked up completely with this. Instead of getting rid of the "Pay Later"-option immediately (which would have prevented orders over December because Web-Exclusives for January weren't announced/listed at this point) and writing one informative E-Mail to all costumers who have orders in November & December. Just telling them that they'll have to pay before the Premium Bandai order deadline for these orders instead of sending out E-Mails every month that say "Pay this stuff in one week or we'll cancel your order!" and leave figuring everything out to your customers.

Like for example, ZeoRangerV told us that he pre-ordered stuff on "Pay Later" recently. Why do they even allow that shit if they know it isn't "Pay Later" but "Pay Three Months in Advance". It seems like they do it now because Ultron has no pay later option available, but still.

Cut it immediately, write one informative E-Mail and it's done. But don't fuck around with your customers because you can't figure out the situation.

I wish I had a place that would offer Web-Exclusives at a similar price as NY, because at this point I would like to say "Screw it" and just never buy stuff there again.

Same. Gonna have to drop a lot of stuff I planned for January because I still have all my October stuff to sort out. Oh well.

I'm just relieved I never jumped on Hulkbuster in the end. Would not want that payment request showing up next month.

"We are sorry to inform that November December months will be affected, yes. Onward we will take on basis of orders received"

I asked for clarification and tried to boil it to the simple question of

"am I right to assume we will be charged for web exclusive items before their shipping months from now on?"

They never bothered to reply. This was 2 weeks ago.


If it is the case this is how it is going to be from now on, they need to inform people BEFORE they hit pay later.
