That's how much they are (assuming you mean in the 35-45 dollar range)
What Bluefin has been doing is very awesome, and it's more than just getting the stuff into specialty shops for reasonable prices.
My Ultra-Act Glenfire came with a QC error in the elbow. If I had bought him from AmiAmi, I'd have to contact them and wait for approval for a replacement (which I've done in the past) mail the toy back to them at my own expense, and wait for the replacement.

With this, I just walked into my local import shop (Image Anime) and they swapped it out for me. It's not a store-by-store basis, either. One of the things that Bluefin is pushing is their customer support in the US.

To clarify, those shots were taken at the bluefin booth, not ban dai. Sorry for the miscommunication!

Is it just me or is that a different double figuart than the one that is out now, because the elbow is green on the cyclone side instead of black.

I think the two W figures (CycloneJoker and FangJoker) are actually Figurise model kits.
Compare the FJ, which has hand articulation to this:
Model Kit

vs.
S.H. Figuarts

Hey, you are right, that does look like the model kit!

[Brainchild]

Yeah, those are definitely the Figurerise W kits. The heads are too round, there's finger articulation, the memories are individually colored, etc.
