AmiAmi pre-orders. Going live in 3 hours:

Battle Droid
Clone Trooper
Ranma (Girl)

I forgot all about this until I was getting in bed to go to sleep. I jumped on my phone and got Ranma and Clone Trooper without any problems or delays at all. yay, me!

Man, with all of the prequel stuff being revealed, I probably won't have to buy another Star Wars Figuart until March or April at this point.

They will probably want to a Obi-Wan figuart to be release after Darth Maul. I do agree that Episode 3 Obi-Wan would have made a better figuart. I guess the Episode I version is more popular in Japan.

Huh... I swear for a little bit they weren't there at all, but Omegamon and Minato have listings on Amazon again. Still just third party sellers (as they were originally made by them), but now with full info and the very clear message that "Note: This item is only available from third-party sellers"... That definitely wasn't there before. Not sure it's a good sign or not.

Yeah, same seems to have happened with Metalgarurumon and Manga Ultraman.

Pay off my Iron Man pre-order on Ami Ami. Better late then never. I had to wait for my next payment to come through since I just spent $100 on school stuff.

Got Iron Man and wanted something better to hold him up than the standard Tamashii stage waist claw. Unfortunately Amazon is out of Prime eligible Saint Cloth Myth stand sets: http://www.amazon.com/Bandai-Tamashi...nt+seiya+stnad

Anyone know of another, better stand OR where I can get this one for a better price?

Get the 10th Anniversary Saint Seiya stand. It's amaaaaaazing. :D
http://www.amazon.com/Bandai-Tamashi...dp/B00EVEMH6G/

IMO, wouldn't really aesthetically fit with Iron Man though... Plus wouldn't you still need extra standard claws to hold him up flying?

I was going to recommend the trident stand since so many love that.

The problem with the Trident stand is it uses the same claws as the Act IV, which he sounded like he didn't want to use. The Saint Seiya claws are different (and better).

That stage comes with several arms and claws.

And yes, it might not fit with Iron Man, but it works great with other things, so you should buy it anyway. Use the arms/claws from this set with any other tamashii stage base. Or use the dirt parts, those are generic looking.

Well, what do you know? Guess I won't be buying the Hasbro figures tonight. :D

I totally need two First Order Stormtroopers.
But dammit, in Dec? how am I gonna buy all these and still save up enough money for Hulkbuster?

What's the street value of a kidney?

... Must... resist...

Wow, and here I was thinking about picking up Hasbro's Kylo on Sunday night. Nevermind, I can wait.

When will preorders go up?

Yeah I'ma need that Kylo Ren. Welp, guess I don't need the headache of the midnight release then :lol

Sunday? Why not tonight, when the event is?

I'm still probably going to go tonight, just to see how busy it is, or possibly isn't. And to see the figures in person.

December releases, so I'd imagine probably next month for pre-orders?

Was just going to post that Episode 1 Kenobi had a full page now. I did not even notice the Episode VII guys!

And holy shit, I was going to go buy the BS Kylo Ren tomorrow. Probably won't even bother going out at all now. Wow.

Probably. I was just thinking to myself the other day that I didn't have a December AmiAmi order and realized it's because nothing was really listed for the month yet. And if they can add stuff for November in September... I totally expected stuff for December to come next month.

Judging by the numbers on the bottom of the promo image... I think that the preorders open tonight/tomorrow.

Also, is it just me or does it look like Obi-Wan comes with NO extra faces?

They don't always show all the extra accessories in these pics. Didn't we not know that Ryugen Yomi was coming with the Kiwi thing, until it was released?

Edit, agreed it looks like pre-orders are tonight. I'd better set an alarm, cuz I am first in line for the First Order Stormtroopers!

Oh shit I think you're right. Force Friday... makes sense.

Damn, I've already gotta get up early to take somebody to the airport, now I gotta get up in the middle of the night to place an order? :/ Meh, I totally want these, but twice in a week does kinda suck heh.

Also, he has at least one extra. A slightly sterner face.

Running the text on the Tamashii Web Page through the ever-reliable Google Translate:

"Booking ban by September 4, 2015 ( Friday) general retailers
( Presence or absence of reservation handling depends on the retailers )".

So yeah. Tonight.


Insert joke about overall wooden acting through the entire Prequel trilogy here.

Wow Kylo Ren looks fantastic, absolutely spot-on, the robe is very well captured.

Gonna get him and Vader (fitting since Kylo Ren is obsessed with Vader from what I've read on some movie news site) in December :)

By the way, this was known from the product page, but the pictures of Kenobi show us that Maul does indeed come with a sliced-in-half saber.

Pre-orders open tomorrow.

Oh, and that made me look at the pictures of Obi-wan, so I see he comes with two sabers, his and Qui-gon's. neat!
I need to hunt down Maul, like, now!

Makes you wonder if Maul's saber can disconnect and become two.

Well the product page says this:

・Light Saber (x2)
・Grip for the double-blade Light Saber

So yes, maybe they have two sabers that lock into the hilt of the staff.

to be pedantic, for it to be screen accurate it shouldn't disassemble, it should be a separate hilt, so they can put some burn markings on the cut one. :D

But I don't care, I'll only display it with the double hilt anyway.

Yeah, gonna need this when she comes out too.

Oh goddamn..

I was just getting excited about the Black Series one just revealed as well! :lol

Yeah Phasma is a must have as well. Hope she comes around soon.

This is the best goddamn day of reveals this year. Bandai wins Force Friday.

I thought that was back when they unveiled Winspector? One or the other, boss.

Damn it. It's hard to choose. Can I jut add Phasma to the team as the extra hero and call it a day? :p

hopefully it comes with the burnt bottom, to show that it's being cutted in the middle:D

I dunno about kylo, he got too many fabric

In regards to Maul's lightsaber, found this on the page for Obi-Wan:

Survey says "No".

I just hope my hotel room's wifi is working tonight.

HLJ already put Kylo Ren up for pre-order and its sold out.

Damn.

Oh. It appears to just be gone from the site now. Might've been a mistake, so could be made available again later.
