A wonderful little haul for today.

A boxed Siren Builder. For the life of me I can't understand why people hate this thing. It's a seriously fun figure with a decent gimmick. The arms are wonky but that's really the only downfall of it. Plus I only paid $20 and a Figuart in trade for it.

And a beautiful Turbo Megazord. Only thing missing is the sword and one part of the hilt. Otherwise it's in fantastic shape. And it was only $30 :)

Well one of my BIG things came in today. To go along with my Siren Builder I just got a complete Ultimate Daibouken :)

check your Skyriders eyes and shoulder pads. mine had a chunk missing of the eye as if it werent molded fully, and the chest was poorly assembled making the shoulder pad jiggle about. BBTS is sending me a replacement.

Yeah well guess what mines missing? The most obvious f***ing piece. The Sailing Jump tamashii stage adapter :mad: I feel like a moron, it's supposed to be directly below the S on the front of the package. I should have seen that it wasn't there. I bought this from work though and since Diamond Comics is my distributor I can turn it in as damaged and get a replacement.

Two of my most recent purchases.

Den-O, might I ask how much you paid for that DaiShogun? I want one so bad >.>

Oh man, I just remembered that I had Candytoy Senpuujin and Gouraijin with FuuraiMaru when I lived in Japan. I have no idea what happened to it. So jealous right now!

They are extremely awesome :D I'm very lucky. My boss loves my horror stuff and most of the folks that work here are geeks into one thing or another. I gotta say working for Apple for the past 3 going on 4 years has been incredible. They really take care of you. http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o...12at234PM2.jpghttp://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o...-12at234PM.jpg

Awesome!!!! :D I love this pic! Congrats DaiRiderRX!

man with getting gokai pink and the legends mobirate, my collection just feels so much closer to being complete, just need DX gozyujin and machalcon and i'll be one happy gokaiger fanboy :lol

It's never complete, especially if you collect Ranger Keys :D

i just started down that long, twisted path :lol

Glad to hear you found a replacment. I recently picked up A marvel Avengers hammer shot thor to help complete my avengers team. Halfway there :) I also picked upthe new Kid Icurus game for my 3ds. (send friend codes if you want an asswopping Sentai style. (I suck at the game soo bad right now).

Sorry for the late reply. I paid about $140 with EMS shipping included from Japan (bought it on Mandarake). The most recent ones I've seen have sold for $300+ on ebay. So I think I got a good deal :)

My condolences... Welcome to the club :lol

I have not the funds to get all the keys even if I wanted to. I might not get the Legends Mobirates since I probably won't be getting all the keys anyways. I do like the inclusion of the Go-Buster sounds though. I really only want all the Green keys as well as the Gekiranger set(hopefully they release another special set with Rio and Mele as I would prefer DX or candy toy keys of them)

And so this post isn't as off topic. I got in D-Arts Wargreymon and a first edition Optimus Prime on Tuesday and Today respectively. I'm expecting first edition Cliffjumper soon as well(was scheduled to be delivered today, but seems to have gotten stuck/lost somewhere) I've also ordered D-Arts Omegamon which will hopefully be here towards the end of the month. I also picked up a second PRID Arcee just for a second set of weapons >_< I will post pics when I get Cliffjumper so I can do them all at once.

Very cool, looking forward to that!

I had to do some parting out of the busted one to fix the new one (head was busted clean off, neck joint and all) but it looks as good as new now

but I can thank Repair Bay for hookin me up with the new one

You got it! Glad you're happy with it!

I'd say that's a DAMN good price. Well done haha

Picked up my first new Rider merch since last fall today: Kiwami Tamashii Kaixa and Agito Trinity.

I've been a big fan of this line almost since the beginning and have, lately, actually given serious thought to going back to these exclusively instead of Figuarts (which are great, but they're so big and expensive and I honestly don't think I'll find another one that's as good as Knight). These two really help reinforce how great this whole damn line is and why going back to collecting them exclusively may not be a bad idea.

I'll cover Kaixa first, since he was the figure I wanted more, although both are equally great. The design is pretty damn SIC-ish with tons of sculpted detail and greebling everywhere. The paint is beautiful, articulation is unhindered by anything, and all the joints are nice and tight. The accessories are great, too. He has four extra hands, the Kaixa Shot (which just sits on the belt), the Kaixa phone in belt and gun mode (and he can actually hold it in gun mode, unlike Faiz and his phone), the Blaygun with attachable blade and working hip holster, and the... whatever the kick thing is called. The kick thing (Kaixa Binoculars?) is actually really cool. It clips on his back or foot and the sides actually flip down to form the Rider Kick mode. I never expected such a tiny accessory to do something like that. This guy is so cool.

Agito Trinity was an impulse buy. HLJ had him on sale for 50% off so I threw him in the cart with Kaixa. I figured that, if nothing else, he'd at least look cool on the Tornador. Gotta say I'm very pleasantly surprised with how cool he is. Yeah, he's, like, 90% identical to the Ground Form figure, but the new additions are really cool. The sculpting is solid and the metallic red on the Flame arm is gorgeous, although the blue on the Storm arm is so dark it almost looks black in the wrong light. The Weapons are surprisingly cool. The Storm Halberd's blades actually fold back like they do on the show. Even cooler, the Flame Saber actually has tiny little fins that fold out on the hilt, again just like on the show. I'm really impressed with these accessories, they do things that my Figuarts Agito Trinity's weapons don't even manage. It's a pity the Storm and Flame effects parts only come with the exclusives.

Seriously, if you like cool Kamen Rider toys that manage to be really cool and affordable, get these things.

Just got in my Red Buster and Nick set as well as a new set of clear Tamashii Stages and Figuarts G3.
