I mean that's completely fine, just a bit bewildering. But I'm happy you bought and are now enjoying them, that's awesome

Don't worry too much about breaking anything, be gentle and it will be fine, I broke a single one in like 10 years, all the others are fine.

And the Detail of Heroes-books are really cool! I have the recent, updated Gaim one, love it to bits, so much fun to look at.

Pffft lol. Yeah I haven't gotten Figuarts before because of how dang expensive they are. Most of what I wanted was way more than what I could afford back then (I was a high school student whrn most of the stuff I wanted was released, and they've inflated somewhat in the aftermarket). Not to mention that I was super stingy with my money.

And having finally gotten Figuarts...well honestly? I think they're pretty neat, but I can now say for sure that they're definitely not my type of collectible. I mean, I can see myself buying them again in the future, but they're so expensive and small that I think I'll have to restrict myself to just buying those whose designs hold important meaning to me. I might check out SO-DO, but for now I'm just happy to finally get something I've had my eye on since high school.

And on that note, I feel super old now lol.

Welp, the point is you're a proud owner of a set of figuarts. Hope you get Lazer lv.2 if you're planning on doing so to recreate that scene from the opening clip. Good job getting that set.

Well I got lucky with securing Amazing Mighty Pre-Bandai US after missing out when Hobby-Genki listing went up and also missing out on Tycoon Bujin Sword

There’s a chance pbandai us could put Bujin Sword back up for preorder. Don’t lose hope. Kamen Rider 1 - The Next sold out and got relisted a few days later. Could happen again with Bujin Sword.

Grabbing this, I'm curious if there's any differences beyond the tiny running change in the helmet.

Thanks for that mention and hopefully I'm aware if and when it happens because I've been either too early or too late when the listings have gone active for those two recently

I have the original amazing mighty so I didn't pay too much attention when Hobby Genki open preorder but I am sure it is gone fast.

Take Tycoon Bujun Sword as an example, on the day of opening preorder, I constantly check Hobby Genki starting from around 4pm PST to look for the corresponding listing and set up email notification. I like this way of preordering as usually there are a few hours difference between they set up the listing and open the preordering (around 11 or 12pm Japan Time), I can then preorder immediately once I receive email notification.
