If it’s any consolation to those disappointed, I think Gaim will be the first CHRONICLE line to get a third retail wave for one particular reason: Kiwami.

Aside from W (which had just one retail wave, fewer figures per wave and was their first time at this with less budget), all CHRONICLE lines so far have included the final form, and in fact all major forms of the main rider — Den-O, OOO and Kuuga have all done this without fail. And maybe this is the one time they won’t, but then it would be odd to me to not include Kiwami in this wave over, uh. Jimber. There’s also the fact that CHRONICLE has seen a lot of popularity and a large increase in budget — look at all the improvements in this line and how much paint they’ve been able to do. This blog even boasted of a new dedicated web page and tv ads!!

So, yeah, think we’re getting a wave 3 for the first time! Place your bets on who; I’m thinking Kiwami, Emo Ryugen, Duke and Gridon.

Talking of an increased budget... if there’s CHRONICLE news next week, going by how quickly new CHRONICLE lines happen one after the other, I think we’ve got a new line reveal next month. I’m thinking possibly Kiva, Wizard or Fourze, based on what SHODO isn’t currently covering.
