Actually, wait, hang on. I'm looking closer and I'm realising that the waist construction is totally different. In particular, this one armoured plate is on her waist part while on Tycoon etc it's on the top of their upper leg part. Different mold then, and likely completely incompatible with the rest of the line
![]() ![]() Well, I am happy for show accuracy, and little bit curious/worried about how they will accomplish the gimmick swap. I was thinking the shoes would be a giveaway too, but they are behind the card. |

I definitely wouldn't mind if Nago is shorter than others. The form change gimmick is neat but I'd rather Tamashii stick to screen accuracy on this one
If you're Bandai, where do you go next in the SS Sentai line? Make the rest of the team or do more Reds? I would be down for an SS Akaranger so we can have all the original Toku suits. I'm not too well versed in Sentai history, so what other heavy hitters/fan favorites are good candidates? Liveman? Sun Vulcan? Zyuranger just for the hell of it ?

As for past Sentai, Jetman and Zyuranger seem like safe bets. If a man can dream, give me ToQger any day.

They are about to celebrate 20 year anniversaries for Hurricaneger and Abaranger, so those could be good candidates for the SS treatment. I guess the Reds from each team, and maybe they could give us Abarekiller too.
And I think Kyoryuger will probably have some anniversary celebration. That’s a popular series and they already have normal line SHFs, so they could do a version 2 or an SS version of the red from there. Last edited by Rabbitman; 02-03-2023 at 12:07 AM.. |

The SHF resale vote is now up. There's Kamen Rider and Ultraman categories but it's such a weirdly specific pool of figures you can select from. Was honestly annoyed at the Kamen Rider selection since very few of them are figures that are that hard to get on the aftermarket now (and once again, no Seihous included...)

Pretty weak selection overall. The Ultraman section doesn’t even have Alien Baltan in it...
There’s a form to survey figures not included, but who knows if that even matters. Honestly speaking, I look at the selection and there's not a single thing in there that catches my eye. |

It's how I felt as well. I voted for Cross-Z and Geed Ultimate Final, but honestly the former is surprisingly not that hard to get now

Reading through the mess that was ordering Faiz...
Ugh if AmiAmi really isn't doing Seihous... Yeah need to find an alternate source for Gokai Red for sure then. And I am just TERRIBLE at searching HLJ on drop nights. They never show up in new items or on searches for me despite seeing people posting they got them or they're sold out already even. So hopefully a kind soul shares that link when they go up... Hobby Genki also orders me a partial store credit for the Andrew Garfield Spider-Man debacle I don't think they've issues me yet... Might have to reach out to them again about that. Would be a good place to go and chance to use that up heh.

tbf there are actually some choices in the rider section that I think are good picks for resale, mainly because you don't see them pop up as commonly second hand nowadays or their aftermarket price is really inflated.
Ex-Aid Lvl 2, Lazer Lvl 2, Para-DX, Valkyrie, Horobi, Gaim Kiwami,, Cross-Z, Rogue, Type Tridoron and Machine Builder all stand out to me. Meanwhile Zero-One is on the list despite having like a dozen different rereleases which is head-scratching. EDIT: Oof, the Ultraman section is such a hard pick, too. I literally would love to see them resell every kaiju they've listed with how expensive most of those choices have become. The Marvel section's laughable, though. 90% Iron Men with everything else already having better versions out there to get. No mention of some of the harder to get SHFs like their Ultron or any of the Hawkeyes is wild.

Yeah I thought the Rider section wasn't that bad. Type Tridoron with all the tires for example is really expensive. Might end up voting for that. But plenty of others choices are just odd.
Also glad to see Nago will be done accurately to size. As cool as it is, I'd rather forgo the gimmick for that.
