Ahh,, ok. Gene Rider kinda works. Or Genenger, or Geneyuger, or Toy Sentai Toyuger, or ToyQger.

The accessory count is always listed on the Japanese website. You'll have to machine translate it, but it's usually pretty clear. There's only one version of the lance (and the separated version).

No blade or gun form of the ranger stick again either.

Hrm. My Agito Shining Form shipped last night. Did he release early? The only date I ever saw for him was 2/28 and Nippon-Yasan is usually about a week behind everyone else when it comes to shipping new releases.

Released on the 15th.

Thanks! I'm guessing besides being a bit slow, N-Y slaps arbitrary release dates on things, too. Good to know!

Anyone know when the Kyoryu Green and Blue figures come out again? I remember it was later this month.

I'm fortunate enough to know several physical locations where I can pick up Figuarts in person.

I've gotten to know a bunch of local dealers through conventions that I keep in touch in with. There's also a ton of comic book and anime shops in my area that stocks Figuarts.

Web exclusives that aren't bluefin carried are another story though.

My contact in Japan says it should be Saturday.

Exclusives are always released on the last weekend of the month.

That's awesome.

The problem with that is the lance is not long enough.
