That would be pretty cool actually. Especially if they go all out and make his blue race suit visible under the damage. Maybe include Whiplash's arc reactor moulded into an alternate hand as an additional accessory too.

And now I kind of want a Tony Stark figure in his blue race suit with the suitcase open at that moment he goes to pick it up and suit up. Haha.

Wish it wasn't TWE, I'd rather not have to pre-order it, I prefer to order things once they're out, but whatevs, I need it!

Meanwhile I'm still waiting on these Iron Man + Hall of Armor sets to decide if it's worth pre-ordering at the high price by watching the Mark VI and it's only just getting in from Bluefin. But Amazon's still listing it as a pre-order not expected for 3 more weeks ugh. Still have a feeling that as it's Iron Man, prices aren't going to go down, but stuff from Bluefin usually does on Amazon so I've got some hope left..

So Bandai is doing Kingdom Hearts Figuarts:

Kinda surprised they're jumping right into 2 with this one.

Where is Leia? She is the only one left of the main Star Wars cast they have not revealed.

Kiwami · 05-26-2017, 09:38 AM

Is that a new Darth Vader I spy? Of the "A New Hope"-variety? With a real fabric cape? Please be actual cloth.

Electric Turahk · 05-26-2017, 10:02 AM

Yeah I need that Sora so, so badly. Wonder how it'll look compared to Square's new Bring Arts line... And for that matter what it means for the line if they're letting a competitor do a similar scale. SHF will probably end up being like an inch shorter though which'll suck.

But hey whatever! It's been a pipe dream for a long time but holy shit it's happening. Hope it still makes it as a release this year.

Not really surprised by it being from KH2 though. I feel it's the more popular/iconic design and game after all these years.

That does look like a new Vader. Besides the potentially cloth cape, it looks like it might be taller too? That was a pretty common complaint for the original release. Neat.

Yeah, I would really love a Vader that scales a little better with the other figures. I really can't tell anything from the picture though. I guess it's time for new glasses.

Electric Turahk · 05-26-2017, 10:07 AM

The Stormtrooper are too far away from him to really tell and it could even just be a perspective trick if they aren't on the same plane. But it's what I see right now. Hopefully we get some closer pictures.

But those two factors combined would probably be enough to get me to considering replacing mine.

Oh man, that Sora looks great. I am so buying that.
