So... Mikasa's pretty cool.

Fancy your Iron Man figma having an additional Tony Stark faceplate?

At 8800 yen (1000 more than the standard version) and a GSC store exclusive, I think I may pass.

I'm honestly thinking of passing on the normal one as well. I'd rather just track down an SHF Iron Man at that price.

So I set up a FigInStock alert for Kirito a while back and man has it just been really disheartening... I've not seen one below 8500 yen, which is just too much for me*, but one just went up for 11000... Damn. Why did I ever pass on his preorder?

*Which means as much as I would like an Iron Man and how good I think the open helmet face looks (much better face sculpt than Thor, at least), that is just wayyyy too much money for the retail price.

the Avengers Figmas are a bit pricier than I thought. Still leaning towards a purchase though...

... Dat Thor...

I like'em but MAN are they expensive.

Getting the marvel license and rights to use the actor's face must've cost Max Factory a pretty penny.

Cap looks fantastic in coloured, can't wait to own them all.

I just hope Amiami have a reasonable discount on them, might make not getting the better Iron Man a bit easier to swallow. There's no way I'm paying 10,000 yen for a Figma.

Cap looks fantastic, really not hot on Thor. If face licensing yields that...
