What's the KyoryuRed wrist problem again?

His wrists are tighter than [Insert Tightness Reference Here] and are prone to snapping, same with the Armed On arm.

Ah, that sucks. Not about being Australian, just not being able to return it like that. I don't know what I would do without Amazon's return amazing return policy. I've had to use it several times over the last few years. In fact, I had to do that with Venus as the first one I got had a broken ankle, so I got the replacement and her wrist was defective, so I swapped arms with the broken ankle one and now I have myself a perfect Venus.

Can't believe I'm saying it (just because it's not his forte and wasn't really expected), but Optibotimus' review of Mario is the Mario review everybody should watch if they're still unsure. He understands what this figure's representing but also addresses the complaints about him fairly well. For once it was a nice breathe of fresh air for a Figuarts review from a novice to the line and that's great.

I really can't wait to get mine in a few weeks.

Opened up my Mario earlier and while its an absolutely fantastic figure (I honestly don't know how the actual sculpt/articulation could be bettered really) I do have a few mixed thoughts.

While I can understand the whole minimal accessories/tiny price point mindset (although I would have happily paid more for more stuff), I don't like the fact that what DOES come with the figure is only compatible with stuff that comes in the accessory packs. Both the ? block and Mario himself require special adapters to work with stands, making basic Tamashii stages mostly useless.

I was happy passing on the accessory sets, but now I feel like I need them. That was always Bandai's plan though I suppose...

I want those Star Wars Figuarts yesterday. I was already planning on selling all my 4" SW figs on account of the 6" SW Black figures, but I will be cutting back on those as well, if not dropping them all together.

Once I started getting into Star Wars statues on prop replicas, the Hasbro figures held little interest for me. But I have been dying for some high end poseable figures. I am going to buy all of them.

Even I have to admit, I may sell one of my 4" Vader figures because of the figuart, though I'll be keeping the FU battle damaged one.

You need the accessory sets Alex. Too much fun.

Oh I'm getting them now. I'd have just rather it been out of just want than partly out of necessity

Sounds Sith-y.
