It's 12:40 PM there now (from my location at least), so if you live around the mid west (we'll say Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, or Kentucky), you have a good three hours.

The point of the SHF thread isn't pictures is all. It's about discussion of the line. That's why we have cool stuff threads for pics. This thread doesn't need to be cluttered by images when that's not really it's purpose. Though images that relate to the discussion at hand are appropriate.

As for Hibiki. I guess I'll be pulling a late one tonight myself so I can grab him.

I would but I'm tapped out of money and I haven't seen Hibiki nor really like the suit/s.

I'm kinda curious I'm a very minor SH Figuarts collectors, but I've never seen a figure line that'll keep people up for pre-orders. Figmas being big on most the Anime audience I don't see many people going crazy waiting for the pre-orders button to go up unless it's a web exclusive that is. So is the figuarts line really that sparse even though renewal Kabuto, and Hibiki or Gaim(maybe?) is a wide release.

I think it's just a case of being able to do it right away just in case stuff runs out. I'd assume since Hibiki is finally getting a release, there would be a lot of demand for it. And with Gaim being the currently running series that is already having success with it's other toys, it's safe to say there would be a rush for them as well.

Amiami pre-orders sell out in minutes. If you don't feel the need to stay up I won't blame you. But these things regularly sell out like crazy.

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.

Annnd Hibiki secured.

And it's sold out within a minute too (for now). Damn.

So, who all got one? *raises hand*
