Digital Game
Tomb Raider XII Shadow Of The Tomb Raider Definitive Edition I got it for Google Stadia due to the large file size of the game. All DLC was featured. This was also the case for both Tomb Raider X and Tomb Raider XI Rise Of The Tomb Raider. Tomb Raider X was the only game of the Survivor Trilogy released on the Play Station 3. I own the Legend Trilogy on Play Station 2. DVD Miss Scarlet And The Duke Series I |

Pretty great mail haul today. I was feeling kind of bummed out the past day or so, and getting these guys out and playing around with them was a lot of fun.
Carmeara is my favorite one of this batch. It?s always nice getting a really different looking ultraman series figure. If anyone has tips for getting Jeanne to hold the lovkov fans, please let me know. Those things are just held in with wishes and prayers, it seems like. Kuuga Titan form is beautiful as well. Edited to add a pic of Trigger Dark and Carmeara. Yes, I put the effect piece from trigger sky type on Trigger Dark. Yes, trigger dark?s head is barely on the peg and could fly off at any moment. But I had to do things to make him look good!!! This figure can barely pose if you try to do the normal stuff with it! |
Picked up (and awaiting)
KR Kuuga Titan SS KR #3 Sango Uva Greeed, will finally be finished with OOOs line. Debating on pulling trigger on Faiz/Kaixa Glowing Stage sets… |
I just grabbed the HG RX-78-2 with G-Armor. Really excited about this one because I actually love the G-Armor.
|
finally got my Figure-Rise Kamen Rider Ghost kit in! I will probably build this tonight or tomorrow.
Any tips from those who have already completed it would be appreciated! |

Several years ago, a very dear friend of mine went to Japan and brought me back a vinyl figure. I had not watched any Kamen Rider yet and so had no idea who this red devil looking figure was supposed to be, he just looked pretty cool. I kept it on my desk, and somewhere over the years must have misplaced it. My friend unfortunately passed away in 2020 and I haven't been able to find the figure, so I felt that now that I know who the character is, I should get another figure of him to remember my friend by.

Got this guy today.
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachmen...F132FFDF04.jpg In all honesty, he feels a lot better than most of Hasbro’s PR figures that I own, but his arms are severely disappointing, in that somebody though 360 elbows were more important than articulated biceps/wrists. And theres also the fact that not only can he not hold his own weapon without forcing it in, said weapon is inaccurate to the onscreen prop. |

I got the SHF Belial re-release and I also picked up this really cool gold guy. Not sure where gold guy is from (wink) but he is great too.
I just did a couple team-up pictures with some random figures I had lying around. If they are connected, it?s purely a coincidence, I promise. I love these ultraman figuarts. |

Got in a bunch of preorders over the last three days. - SHF Ultraman Belial (Reissue) - SHF Ultraman Ginga (Reissue) - SHF Gomora (Reissue) - SS Ultraman (Reissue) - SHF Kamen Rider Demons (Found him on Amiami's second-hand listings brand-new for retail, so tacked him onto my monthly order.) |
Nice! I had that Gomora in my cart on HLJ a couple weeks back, but I was not able to checkout and missed my chance to get it. I was in a courthouse at the time so my hands were tied. Good news was I did not have to apologize to anyone, but I missed out on my figure!
Hopefully Bandai does a reissue of that Gomora figure in North America too. |

https://scontent.fdet3-1.fna.fbcdn.n...gw&oe=6334D44F It's a good time to be a Kuuga fan. Got the blu-ray from Shout and the Seihou of Titan Kuuga. Haven't gone through the blu-ray yet, so I can't say much about it, but as for the Seihou, while the purple it uses for the eyes and armor aren't quite accurate to that used for the actual suit, it still looks nice, and it doesn't bother me much. https://scontent.fdet3-1.fna.fbcdn.n...-Q&oe=63353AFA RPM expansion for the Power Rangers card game. Surprised we got this before we got Turbo, and it makes me wonder what show they'll add to the game next. https://scontent.fdet3-1.fna.fbcdn.n...YQ&oe=63355A73 Gunslinger Spawn with his utterly gigantic horse. Might wanna go with a Figma horse for 6-inch figures if you were thinking about using this horse for other figures like I was. https://scontent.fdet3-1.fna.fbcdn.n...ow&oe=6333BC10 Energy krackle effects from Can of Beams. Very useful for comic figures. https://scontent.fdet3-1.fna.fbcdn.n...Rw&oe=63351D9D Wired cape for Green Ranger Shredder by DD19customs. He forgot to have a hole in the back for the peg in the back of the Dragon Shield, but it's whatev. Good work otherwise. https://scontent.fdet3-1.fna.fbcdn.n...jw&oe=63352DC4 A t-shirt of Lyn from Fire Emblem from TheYetee. She's my favorite FE character, so I had to. https://scontent.fdet3-1.fna.fbcdn.n...vQ&oe=63347FB2 https://scontent.fdet3-1.fna.fbcdn.n...aQ&oe=6334F878 GI Joe Storm Shadow and Blue Ninjas. This is my first hands-on experience with Hasbro's' new "no plastic" packaging and I gotta say that I am not a fan. There's tons of reasons as to why, but I don't plan to rant on it here. At the very least all of these figures are excellent. https://scontent.fdet3-1.fna.fbcdn.n..._w&oe=63347DC1 Discotek out here saving obscure stuff yet again. This is my favorite of the various Tales anime despite the obvious problems that come with taking a big JRPG and reducing it down to two hours, so I'm glad they rescued the license. |

I picked this bad boy (SMP Alternative Destiny Gunbuster) up recently. I've wanted a Gunbuster kit for about 5 years now, ever since I saw one on display while in Japan. I finally own one now, and I've gotta say...I think it's my favorite model kit that I've ever built. The detail in the pieces is insane, the pre-painted parts look gorgeous, almost every sprue is either undergated or positioned in a way so that you won't see the nub marks, and it has great articulation. I didn't buy it when it came out because I wanted a more traditional Gunbuster kit, preferably one that transformed, but man this is so nice. I'm actually glad I waited, because now that I have Godhand nippers and some glass files, I did a much better job than I would have when it released. Here are some photos I took with a few other relevant kits I have: https://i.imgur.com/9qXjrHj.jpg https://i.imgur.com/M3dSos5.jpg https://i.imgur.com/rwKEXKS.jpg I've got a Mini-pla ZyuOh King coming in within the next few days, but I almost don't want it anymore because nothing will compare to this. (Of course, I actually do still want it, and am excited for it to arrive :lol) |
So this is where I went to earlier today :
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachmen...9/IMG_6755.jpg You can literally make a whole day-trip just sifting through each and every shelf, but here's the final haul https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachmen...8/IMG_6812.jpg SMP Daizyujin (built, but otherwise complete and unstickered), Converge Motion Zero-Two, metsuboujinrai display stand, & Makoto Shishio ( from Rurouni Kenshin ) keychain And right across the street from Mandarake Nagoya is https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachmen...6/IMG_6791.jpg Wasn't as large as Manda, but some great stuff nonetheless, including: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachmen...1/IMG_6813.jpg SHF Thouser & Toucon Boost, SODO Revice Zero-One, Faiz, and Kuuga figs, & Orange Arms & Ichigo Lockseeds & the other stuff I found yesterday https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachmen...2/IMG_6738.jpg |

Completely jelly. I just ordered from both of those stores, ironically. Good haul!! |

Anyways, good haul! |
Yes, I am in Japan! The company I work for has their main branches here, so a group of us came over to visit/train. The Mandarake & Jungle I went to are in Nagoya, the capital of the prefecture I'm staying at
|
I checked ebay and couldn't find 5 Man so I may need to direct order it from Shout.
Aba ships in November. Does this count as a September pick up still? |
Quote:
I've been to Nagoya, it's pretty interesting in the sense that it's such a huge city but is more "plain" than Osaka or Tokyo. But I actually appreciate it for that. |
Finally got my hands on the first Avataro Gear set. And it allowed me to make this playlist, which will be seeing use in my next review. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL...afKQlW1mLqQScJ

Just got this in the mail. I really like the design so I'm excited to put it together. I'm a bit worried that I'll have been spoiled by the SMP Alternative Destiny Gunbuster though, and this will be a disappointment :lol

Picked up Ultrawoman Grigio and the Corona Zero & Luna Miracle Zero set from 2019. So glad they finally released Grigio and I guess I am a Zero fanboy now? Best Zero is Leito Zero from Geed, btw.
I also got Espada Arabiana Night. I?m so glad they gave a nice silvery metallic finish to his sword. It looks so much better than what they do for the base form of this figure. I?m the psychopath that ripped apart the swords and bought a metallic paint marker because those swords on the base forms bothered me so much. I lied when I said I bought *a* marker. I bought *a lot* of markers, until I found a good one. Hopefully I never have to do that again. |

Gundam Marker EX-2 Shine Silver has been amazing for me. Perfect match and goes on better than some acrylic silver paints I've used. I think I'm on my third marker of it. |
I used this molotow liquid chrome marker. I liked the results. It is chrome and not silver though. I would only use it on something you don’t mind being shiny and reflective.

Oh nice. Yeah I use that for behind the lenses of FRS Kamen Rider kits.

Lots of model kits this month:
Attachment 62331 My Kuuga collection is now pretty much complete, until/unless there is an FRS kit for Ultimate Form or BeatChaser. I have been critical of the W kits previously, but those issues (mostly) don't apply to Skull, which is fantastic. |
Got OOOs Tajadol Infinity (private seller Barry Chan on Facebook Kamen Rider+ page) and my girlfriend inexplicably bought me Taboo Dopant from Mandarake.
6 more to go, including New Espada which I will wait on and pre-order the SS Ichigo original colors instead |

Seriously though, I can't wait. Have you put them together yet? |

Do you have a set arriving soon. Judging by your response, you probably do, so hope you enjoy it when it arrives! I wish i could afford a set but i blew my cash on the destream driver :p Such are the ways of this hobby....too much cool stuff, too little money. |

My early review is that they have no right being as good as they are, if that makes sense. |
