Yeah, they stopped that after Build so this is a big return to form

Has anyone gotten their Fuuto PI W from Nin-Nin yet?

Mine came bang on time. If you haven't had an update on yours by now, definitely open a ticket.

More pictures of Flame Dragon with All Dragon parts, priced at 14000 Yen

SHFUpgrade are doing a new Cell Medal pack! ... thanks?

I guess this is for those who didn't pick up the SS Ankh pack but still, for some reason, want a loose handful of easily lost cell medals?

Good on them, I suppose.

On one hand, it looks as good as I would?ve hoped (HA). On the other , the dragon parts I never much cared for so I?m not thrilled with how it ups the price. Man, the one time I wish they didn?t go all out haha

Considering you've got plenty of SHF collectors that like to have elaborate displays or do photography, this would be an easy purchase for that.

Cell medal piles in your OOO display or being used in photography set-ups.

14000 YEN LOL Bandai WHUT
NO
NYET
NEIN
HELL TO THA NAH 😂😆🙄
That?s kinda crazy, and that is coming from someone who?s more than kinda obsessed with these things. I remember when SS started out at what, 50-60.00$
Aaaaaaaaaaaand like the obsessive-compulsive type I will get this one too..
It does look hella cool though, I must admit

I feel like they made this for me lol

Glad they got your back! :D

Dang really 14000 yen...Bandai really testing the market with that price or factoring the current low conversion rates lol?

He looks great though and maybe they should consider a bare-boned release without the Full-dragon parts like how they did the Type Tridoron release. I could see a SS Wizard Infinity Full-dragon or Gold full-dragon being 14000 yen thoigh

I can see Infinity being close to 14,000 without any Dragon parts :lol

I'll only accept it if they include a big version of the axcalibur for wizard's finishing move

Do we know if American retailers will be getting the Wizard SHFSS rerelease? They've been good with the general releases but for whatever reason they skipped Ichigo, Kuuga and Decade recent rereleases. I'm afraid wizard will be as well.

Agreed, I would have preferred just Flame Dragon the figure by itself. I'm mainly coming from having no desire to display it with the dragon pieces. To their credit, the dragon parts look spot on and I can see how the extra price factors into the new tooling and paintwork needed.

Comparing it to the Wizard re-release starting at ~65USD (9,350 yen), Flame Dragon is ~97USD

Even the Japanese retailers didn't get Wizard. Nothing from amiami, HobbyGenki, or Anime-Export.

HobbyLinkJapan seems to be the only store that's still carrying every retail release Bandai is putting out, either collectibles or even candy toy cases

Considering All-Dragon/Special Rush is basically just Flame Dragon with all the dragon bits I would have been more shocked if they didn't give him the whole part set.

Cause as it stands I don't see SS getting into any of Wizard's alternate forms any time soon, so I'm sure people would have been disappointed if they didn't take that chance to make that form obtainable or annoyed if they did something like release Flame Dragon barebones and then put the dragon parts out as a separate set which they 100% could have done if they wanted to milk the consumer base that little bit more.

Not a bad price converted even though shipping will make it more for me via DHL or Fedex.

If anyone still need the Wizard re-issue, it's available at SugoToys. Been using them for a long time since they're Australia-based so shipping is usually cheaper for me. They do ship worldwide but I have no idea how much it'll cost.

If SHFUpgrade are now in the realm of doing medals, I'd love to see them do replacement Core Medals since they're so easy to lose. Gaia Memories too while we're at it

I might actually pick up those Cell Medals. But I'd love a fully molded Gashat set as well. Did any of the Ex-Aid figures ever come with one?

Kuroto did, iirc

Just the Kurotos, or one of them.

Looks like FullCartToys took on that task: https://fullcarttoys.boutir.com/item...204032?cat=all

I see I need to pay attention and follow them as much as I do SHFUPGRADE because I've missed out on some accessories they did that the latter didn't. I already knew they did garage kits

You got me all excited there thinking I'd somehow missed a replacement Core Medal set

Well , there it is.

Was it the most hype announcment? Nope, Rampage Gatling or Ark-One would've been awesome.

Am I mad? Nah, I actually wanted this to be released to complete the V-Cinema trio. Plus, the Ichi-Gata mold is aces so I will gladly buy this one too.

Could it have been worse? Yes, Azu :lol

The ZERO-ONE Figures just keep a-comin- so far the most figures in a line for Reiwa era. I personally WANT an Azu to round out my collection of Z-1 figs

Well! That's egg on my face about the logo thing, but I don't mind because I'm very happy to see it! He looks so, so good... just need ZAIA to happen now

So according to the Tamashii Nations Twitter, both Jack Revice and Old No. 1 will be available for pre-order after the event? Translated via Google so something might have been interpreted wrong.

https://twitter.com/t_features/statu...pdx0ELgmw&s=19

I mean I will buy her too, but I'm not looking forward to it much :lol

Maybe if they would include some cool effect pieces for Ark-Zero / Ark-One.

It's more a screwup on their part, they really should've used the proper logo.

Running it through Deepl - sounds more like "Jack Revice will be available later, during Tamashii Nations 2022, with Old Rider 1" so just another plug for the event?

Although given how like 5 people were able to buy these through the lottery because that's all the stock that was left... there really should be more of these.

What a genius decision to make the very first suit in the franchise an event exclusive :rolleyes

Apparently there's been a lot of anger in the collector community in Japan over how Original Colours #1 got treated here... given it's usually random form stuff and black repaints and not anything as significant as this, I can't blame them. There's a LOT of demand for it and it really should have been a normal Preban release; reminding me of Diend in that sense

Not counting Azu, all the Zero-One figures we’ve seen at Tamashii have all gone into production right ?

Hopefully they'll make it available later on because the aftermarket has already bumped up the 50th Anniversary Ichigo to over 20,000 yen. A retail release that sold out instantly that I'm surprised they didn't do a second run of

That's right! A list of everything we've seen at recent events that hasn't gone into production yet:-

Seihou Riderman
Seihou X
Seihou Stronger
Seihou Battle Hopper

Seihou Zeronos Zero
Seihou Deneb
Seihou Saga
Seihou Ridevendor/Toridevendor
Seihou Decade Complete 21

Ghost Mugen
Azu
Saber Primitive Dragon
Durandal
Diago Speedy
Vice Ptera Genome

Come on Bandai and release that Ghost Mugen prototype

At least Durandal has a chance to be produced now that Sabela's getting released; poor Falchion is most likely never gonna see the light of day given the suit's status as a Ghost retool and disposable character.

I don't think being a Ghost retool has anything to do with it -- and for what it's worth I think Falchion does have a bit of a chance due to Dezast using it.

Honestly, as a Saber nut, I really hope they release Falchion because the thought of owning all if the sacred sword wielders is awesome. I won't get my hopes up too much though.

But then again if NinninComic was able to be released...

Nin Nin Comic was released BECAUSE of Build?s crazy popularity.
Saber IS NOT that popular a series. Saber Figuarts already dropped like crazy.
Seriously doubt it?s gonna happen. Japan/the rest of the world wasn?t that thrilled with Saber.
