I... I really don't like how they keep experimenting like this, particularly on figures that have been in high demand for a while. Now if they were to do some kind of special second production where they incorporated all these weird gimmicks in, that'd be fine, that'd be neat, but only if it came after making a figure that was just cold, hard plastic.

If nothing else saves me a headache, a preorder, and a Madokami-knows-how-big hole in my wallet.

I ended up ordering my self Zeztz, Demons, Geats and Gavv (who I managed to squeeze in after deciding to go with DHL shipping instead of light packet). I'm looking forward to having my first SHFs!

Congrats! I hope you enjoy them! It can be a very slippery slope, since there's 55 years worth of amazing characters to choose from, but you are going to have some excellent toys in your new collection. Post pics when they arrive!

I can imagine! There's definitely a few more I'll probably get if I enjoy these, although I've already got a fairly big FRS collection so I'll likely just stick to stuff not covered by those (outside of a few of my favs). They look really pretty so I'll definitely take some pics, I just hope I manage to post them on this website because I've always found that annoying.

I can recommend this website for uploading photos and getting links for the forum: https://imgbb.com/ . I've been using it for a long time and it has never let me down.

I can say that, if you don't care about scale and simply want a representative of a character or simply the quality of the product is up to your standard, you can save quite a bunch of money with Blokees, FRS, or the action figure line. The recent action figure line of Bandai having releases for new entry are also very good. They save the costs with unpainted back, simpler joint implementation, but they're decent nevertheless. Blokees are also doing kits, so you may as well want to consider that, as SHF can be very pricey.

Blokees is stupidly decent.
They won my vote since they started with their Transformers and Saint Seiya stuff. Their semi-chibi stuff are hit or miss depending on the IP, but overall decent. And they've gone to do comparatively more high-end stuff aside from Transformers like their Evangelion model kits.
