So is the figuarts line really that sparse even though renewal Kabuto, and Hibiki or Gaim(maybe?) is a wide release.

It's more about pricing. Generally, the sites that have pre-orders go by price and popularity. The most popular sites with the lowest prices will sell out first. Sometimes the under the radar sites will have them for similar prices and they'll take longer.

The ones that sell out first are also the places that don't require immediate payment.

Also, it's almost exclusively Kamen Rider Figuarts that sell out immediately. Sentai/Anime figuarts are much easier to get pre-orders for. They rarely sell out.

Edit: But also about reliability, and existing orders and stuff. It's better to order everything from the same place so you don't pay multiple shipping costs.
