He was definitely in the homework, but they do explicitly mention in the blog Ouja Blank being getting a lot of requests in "the Ryuki survey" - I don't know if thas the same thing, or if it influenced the decision here, because as they say, it's a straghtup repaint with no tooling required. Guess we'll find out!

I always saw the Homework Poll as a gauge to see what people want, not necessarily that they were obligated to do the top picks

Made big sodo purchase from bbts, they had half off a bunch of mirror monsters, so that was a good way to snag em.

Some nice photos of Shodo-O11 this week, next week an advert for Faiz Wave 2.

Like pretty much all recent waves of Shodo, Shodo-O 11 has two case assortments with different duplicates. Both assortments have 2 of Eternal and Weather. The last duplicate is either a Yummy or Birth. I don't know why they keep doing this to the troop builder even when there's only one in the wave, but they did it again.

Side note, my case is in the mail and I'll have an extra Eternal and Weather, so if anyone's interested, hit me up.

Yeah, I get the dupe of a guy as popular as Eternal; but I definitely think the second assured dupe should have been the Yummy... bit of a strange choice.

Eternal and Birth are 2/3 of who I really wanted from this wave so pretty good news for me either way :] Now I just hope Uva isn't difficult to get...

Sent you a pm.

Got Shodo-O 11 in today (I always forget how fast shipping can be sometimes) along with a SO-DO N-Daguva-Zeba that was on clearance.


Here's some random off the cuff thoughts:

SO-DO N-Daguva-Zeba's stickers are terrible. Not in a hard to apply way like the Golden Power set, but in a they fall off immediately kind of way. Thankfully there's very few stickers and I can paint those, but still. Also the hips are loose. Starting to see why this is one of the more common PB sets.

Birth is nicer than I thought he'd be. The new sculpted detail on the forehead is quite nice. He's a lot like OOO and moves around what does and doesn't get painted.

I was lucky enough to get the assortment with two Yummies and I like them. Solid trooper. Not much to them, but that's what Yummies are.

Uva is a lot like the other bugs in this line with long soft antennas and horns. Going to have to work them out over time. His hand claw is neat, it's a single piece that pegs into all the right hands.

Specter is all the good things I have to say about the Ghost mold, now in blue and a rifle he can slap you with.

Eternal's cape is to thick and gets in the way, but I don't think it limits him nearly as much as past capes in Shodo has (looking at you Apollo Geist). The flames are sculpted on the arms. I wasn't expecting that.

R Nazca is the first time I've had this mold and it's pretty decent. The legs have a surprising range of movement for the design. The shoulder pads however, they don't want to move out of the way when posing. Rather limiting.

Weather gets in his own way at all times. The waist joint barely works, the elbow can bend 45 degrees at best. There's weird flaps hanging off the wrists that basically removes any range of motion. Still loos cool.

Ah yes, the Wonder School website. Those are always fun to look at. They have a printable backgrounds selection to. It just updated recently for the releases of Shodo-O 11 and G-Frame FA 4.
