I have a gallery coming up of the standard Combatmen courtesy of our sponsor Entertainment Earth. I'd very much like to get the black shirt releases as well to have my own shocker army. I just didn't feel they were worth the TWE prices, which is rare for me.

I got my Kyoryu Blue & Green set today, pretty fast for r-sal. I'm still waiting on Mammoth Ranger.. which I had shipped u-airmal. Which I'm starting to worry about. Too good to be true I guess. Anyway.. Kyoryu Blue & Green, awesome figures! Unlike Red, I'm seeing no paint QC issues on the yellow teeth on their helmets. Hopefully Gold is the same quality.

I think after Zyuranger & Kyoryuger I won't be buying many more Sentai figures. Bandai doesn't seem committed to finishing older Sentai teams or Sentai that much anymore. I'm a team collector, so I won't be happy with just a bunch of one off releases.

They aren't gonna lose focus on the Dairanger teams, it's just gonna take them a while cause of how many damned teams they have to make/complete in the first place, making a complete Sentai Team in Figuart form seems to take longer than completing a few Kamen Rider Figuarts plus you have to consider the popularity difference between the two especially since it seems Sentai makes it big mainly due to Power Rangers these days.

Does anyone know anywhere else that's taking preorders for Imperer and Zangetsu? Nippon-Yassan is out of Imperer. :(

Imperer is a web exclusive that's being released at the end of next month dude, it's NOT retail so if you DON'T pre-order it before the end time you can't get one and the pre-orders for April releases ended AT THE BEGINNING OF LAST MONTH, sorry dude but you'll have to pay regular price, don't worry most of the time exclusives that are single packs aren't that pricey anyways, it's the multi-packs that are a pain in the ass & a pain in the wallet.

I knew he was a TWE but I didn't know the preorders ended last month, for some reason thought they were still going for a little bit. I don't expect Imperer to cost very much on the aftermarket, but as he is a TWE it would have been nice to preorder.

Pay regular price? I'm pretty sure everyone who preordered are the ones who pay regular price, if you get it on the aftermarket you get it for a different price. Also, Figuarts Gai says Hi.

I mean, I wouldn't be so sure about Imperer. I still shudder at the price I paid for Gai...

I know TWE reissues or second runs are once in a blue moon, but Gai really deserves a second run. I mean he's listed for well over $150 nowadays.

Bluefin said that the Gaim figuarts are under review. Does that mean Bluefin won't be releasing them?
