More SH Figuarts in U.S. at Toys R Us (Hoax)

Silvershot · 01-22-2012, 01:05 AM

It looks like the U.S. offerings of SH Figuarts isn't limited to Shinken Red and Shinken Gold. I found this Masked Rider Gills at the Monrovia Toys R Us this morning. Rang up for $34.99. I wonder what else is coming our way!

That's a pretty strange choice. Why Gills, of all characters?

Nevertheless, I'm glad that there are more Figuarts coming to the USA.

There is a chance that its just a figuart someone returned to swap for a shinkenger figuart, what did the receipt say for it?

I don't believe this. I just can't bring myself to . Could you post a photo of the receipt?
I'll fan-gasim my mind out if this is real.

I'm skeptical too. Something about that photo doesn't seem right to me.

I'm also extremely skeptical. Need to see receipt proof to believe this. It's just so random. I could potentially believe Rider Figuarts at TRU. Really, I could. But Gills? It would have to be a character more currently relevant in some fashion than Gills.

Right, like the Ryuki Figuarts for Dragon Knight, or even Decade, if they intend to use his crossover footage from Shinkenger.

Seeing as Bluefin hasn't mentioned any SH Figuarts coming to stores other than Shinken Read and Gold, I doubt this is real. If it were, we'd get some sort of announcement on their Facebook page.

Box looks like there's damage, similar to the kind you'd see on a pre-owned one. I think this was just "returned" to the store after the person bought a Shinken-Red or Gold. I'll just stick to Anime Jungle and Mitsuwa for my Figuarts needs, thank you very much

Box shows signs of having been opened. Picture lacks receipt, lacks showing price tags for items on the shelf...

I appreciate the prank, but you've gotta do better than that
