Uh-oh. I just ordered one. Would you say the size is ok if it's strictly going to be used to accent a figure display? It's not freakishly toddler sized or anything is it?

I planned to use it to accent figures as well. And while I won't say toddler sized it is small. I don't have freakishly large hands or anything. But I can almost completely grip the thing.

Just got it in at work and started playing around with it. It's fun, but still not what I was expecting.

Yeah, that is a little small. Thanks for the picture. I hadn't really paid much attention to the Sengoku driver as I wasn't planning on buying one, but everyone around here seemed to be grabbing one lately and my resistance wore thin. Now I have to go learn about the different Lock Seed types. I wish there was a Deneb one.

Oh, man. I ordered mine on Mandarake this morning. Waiting for confirmation will be a pain, especially since the AmiAmi ones are cheaper.

That is exactly how I felt when I received mine. The box was a nice size, not too large and not too small but when you open it up and see the Driver in person, it is a lot smaller than it appears in show. Haha.

I honestly feel that the Sengoku Driver was not exactly worth the $100 that I spent on it (shipped SAL from HLJ) and most of the value actually comes from the DX Lockseeds that it comes with. Now I don't regret the purchase but I do wish that the Sengoku Driver did a little more besides adding a couple of Driver specific sound effects (apparently Zangetsu faceplate is just for looks as well) before the Lockseed sounds. I have also considered getting the Genesis Driver to add some playability but not sure if it'll be worth it since I hear most places require it to be shipped via EMS.

How do people know when something at AmiAmi gets something re-stocked? Unless they always check through all the items that is. Haha

$100? Damn. I only paid about $75 and I feel cheated. I need to play around with it a bit more before I figure out how I feel. But currently I am disappointed with both it's size and honestly it's functionality.

Ah, I've seen that site mentioned a few times here but never looked into it. Might start to now if that means I'll be able to get stuff and save money.

Yeah, no thanks to the low Canadian dollar lately. I've been a bit more hesitant in importing since the value has dropped a bit. Might slow spending overseas until it rises again. Which is a good and bad thing since that means I'll be saving more money but also means that I won't be able to get everything I want right away. Also since HLJ's price was 7312 yen when I probably could have tried getting one off of Mandarake for 5000 yen, darn my impatience and fear of them going up in price. Haha

Whoa! I knew that driver was small, but not that small. Hopefully the sounds and whatnot make up for it since it's my first Driver.
