Wow! This is incredible! lol

I feel like I?m trying to decide which version of a square enix game to preorder. ?Members of ocean flame aurora stage?? maybe I?m reading the lore guide for some D&D campaign here.

Edit: This is why this forum is so great. This stuff is very complicated and also in a language I can’t read or speak. Thank you so much to everyone who makes sense of this.

"sky forest stage" and etc is different members of Club Tamashii membership, though I'm having trouble finding pricing guides for those. Group A and Group B refer to different figuarts -- Jack Revice, Seihou #1 and Zenkaiser Black are Group A, while Evil Trigger and I think a couple Gundam things are Group B. The TLDR:-

- Club Tamashii members get to buy them like any other Preban SHF
- Sales will later be given out to non-members through lottery
- Jack Revice specifically will be given a normal Preban sales period

Sakurajima for *only* 20,000 Yen?
PLEASE SHOW ME THIS I WILL BUY IT IMMEDIATELY!! Actually not joking, either
More like 50,000 Yen on every site. Got lucky to get one when they 1st came out.

I wonder if any of these will get a later general release date from PreBan like Hell Rising Hopper, Super Tatoba, and Realizing Hopper were in the past. It would be a shame though to let that new Ichigo remain exclusive considering even the retail release of Ichigo sold out instantly

Jeez, you're right, it IS about 50,000. Must have been thinking about something else. Just goes to show

Remember when you could just give a company money, and in turn they would give you product? And that was that?

Pepperidge Farm remembers

Psht, what is this unicorn fantasy you speak of? We can't just make it easy for people to give us their money

I don't know, Sentinel seems to make it work.

And I thought P-Bandai was bad.

Also my Zero One Progrise stickers came in. They look great! Finally they look complete.

Look like the box for Fuuto ver is difference from what they revealed before, the green & yellow part is different than the original

Oh wow, I didn't realise the Memories looked so different in this version

Great details on those Memories. A truly stunning figure.

Stunning, no half boiled here!

Yeah guys, I would honestly just try to forget these even exist right about now. It's easier that way :lol

never give up on rider

Apparently there's reports of paint peeling on the FPI W. :x

Any links to these reports? I preordered one and dont want to have to deal with this if its like not an isolated case.

Only got pics in this TFW thread post: https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threa...#post-20514326

Well, a source wasn't provided, so this could very well be the bootleg of fuuto w or since it still has the waist plastic in some pics, that it came like that and is a missed reject that their qc didnt catch. All copies ive seen look fine out of box and pose fine, but its a mass produced product, so there are bound to be qc ridden copies. One reviewer i saw had a fuuto w that came with no antenna piece on the figure or a joker memory.

Ive already seen like 6-7 jp reviews, and all figures in those were fine. Hopefully this is an isolated case.

I saw those pics earlier. It's not the bootleg. They are from a Japanese figure collector on Twitter.

I don't think its a common issue, just another matter of QC.

Just a message of caution for fellow collectors: AVOID OKINI.LAND
That is all.

Does anyone have experience with the SHF Cyclone? I've been considering getting it if I do manage to land a pre-order on Seihou Old #1, but in my experience the SHF New Cyclone (that came in a 2-pack with New #1 in 2014), while it looks very nice, has handles that come off way WAY too easily and is just really annoying to try and pose with Ichigo. I'd like to know if this is the same with the original Cyclone released in 2013

I haven?t had that issue with either, but these things can be quite finicky

It would be absolutely amazing if it was just my copy of the New Cyclone that was annoying lol

Well,the Shinkochou Seihou New Cyclone BARELY fits the SS Ichigo/Nigo figures!
It's hella annoying to try to pose,the older ones work better

Whip that glue out!

Speaking of Pre-orders and such - What are people's thoughts on LunaPark? I've had such a weirdly mixed experience and was wondering if anyone else used them before?

I was just going to buy something from them, I’m glad I saw this. what’s the reason why?

I used them once got 2 saber brave dragon figuarts the shipping was garbage it went from Tokyo japan to hong kong then it was stuck in hk for week with no updates then it came to me Never Used Them Again.

I never thought their prices were really good to justify trying them. Do they have something in-stock you can't find anywhere else?

Yeah, their prices are a bit higher on average, but they tend to mark their shipped items in a way that doesn't incur customs fees (as least for myself in the UK), so it almost evened out?

They've got some recently released things in stock (50th Niigou, etc.). The issue is that I'll buy something, super easy no stress. Then I won't hear anything for a week, so I chase them to see if it's shipped, at which point they then reply back and ship it (and have previously told me things like "item just released so delay", despite the fact I know the item released a good while before?)

The stuff always gets to me, and they only use DHL so it's typically quite quick, so I don't mind paying more. But it's the effort to get them to ship the thing? I'd just like to order something, have it shipped in a reasonable time frame, and it get to me, you know? /rant :lol Anyways, thanks for sharing! Interesting to see the general thoughts on them. Open to recommendations for other places to buy from if anyone has them

Maaaan they have a hefty markup on the Tamashii items -- 15,000 yen is a bit of a pretty penny. Might just be a good backup though if you have no other options left

So far, no problem with Luna Park- kept me informed about my preorders and arrival time. I?ve only preordered twice from them, however

I’m in the do not use crowd. Okay,my situation-they said they had in-stock,available online 6 Figuarts and had to wait over the 1-8 shipping confirmation date for a reply to impress upon them that I was not happy about not knowing where and when my package that I immediately paid for was. Then I was told the items were getting restocked and that was the reason for the wait(understand this was day 12 of not knowing) well if it’s out of stock, WHY NOT JUST TELL ME?
This last order is time #2 of this same situation.
Newer items they have instock, used or older item they get somewhere else if not in house, so yeah, you’ve been warned

Had to try n change the ? Marks in this post, this site always alters ‘ to a ? Looks like I had a stroke

My Rising Kuugas arrived today. Dragon, Pegasus, and Titan. They're all gorgeous and convinced me to track down an unopened normal Pegasus for unfaded eyes and black parts.

Also I didn't actually know Rising Titan came with the two swords so when they rattled out of the package it was quite a pleasant surprise. Only downside is that Rising Dragon has a partially faded left forearm. It's also kind of bubbly but luckily I have a blue metallic paint that is a perfect match so I may try and correct that today.

I wonder why Rising Dragon and Rising Mighty had this fading forearm issue? Never heard of it on Rising Titan or any version of Pegasus, and my normal Mighty was fine. Old Figuarts, man, you can tell Bandai was sill discovering things.

Can't wait for my other... Jesus, six Kuugas to show up. :lol Gonna put them all on one shelf.

I know, it's weird and seems kind of random for me on when it wants to do that. I wonder if being on mobile makes a difference?

I?m sure it?s a mobile thing, it never has happened when using desktop or laptop

Just received a care package from the Postal Fairy- my Okini.land shipment!
But it’s missing a figure,actually a Gaim Black Base, of course.
And also just got in this BEAUTIFUL SS Fuuto anime version today-the crazy long flexible Muffler sells this!!!

Are there any news on Jeanne releases date this month ? i've already see someone selling her & Kuuga on Mercari

No date yet. But given we're at the middle of month and they like to release these during the last weekend it's probably like next week?
