Oh...guess I stand corrected. Thought I'd be pretty on the Mark about Alternative though.

Also, just a bit of info, for those that don't know.

Search YouTube for D Amazing's review of Hurrikenger Blue & Yellow pack. Surprised he got it so early, but then again he mentions Image Anime sent it to him for review. So......

For an awesome collection, again YouTube search "Figuarts collections" and look for ModX Tv. Man, the extent people will go for a great display. Pretty sure he has some vintage out of print figures.

Check it out people.

Why are you counting characters? It's figures released. In the realm of toys, releases count, not characters. You can't just discount Ryuki Survive and Knight Survive, and Alternative, because it suits your wrong argument. If you count Abyss, it's 11 v. 8. Which is damn close to half.

And as pointed out later, I didn't even count Contract Beasts or the Ride Shooter. So it's 11 v. 11.

It's not a "small" anything, it's half the Ryuki releases. Stop trying to say you were anywhere close to right.

I know I've seen you guys during other preorder periods but I honestly have no idea where to go, or what to do since the site(s) you use are not any I'm familiar with. I know he's only being revealed on Sunday and preorders are likely some time away, but what exactly do I need to do to make sure I get a preorder in. And when is payment due on said preorder?

Payment isn't due until they actually get it in their hands. They send you a reminder a couple of weeks before it's actually released, but you can pay anywhere from when you preorder to when it is released.

or you can use http://yokattaweb.jp/, another middleman or http://biginjap.com/ and pay 100% up front. And pay more. Up to you.

Oh com on, we're not going to start this again are we?

[Baltan II]

No, we're not going to start it over. It's incredibly petty and unnecessary to continue in this thread, however one wants to interpret the facts. Doesn't matter if it's half exactly or a little less than half or whatever, it's been more than clarified which Ryuki Figuarts are retail and which are exclusive and should be left at that.

They have the same problems as the Gokai Yellow and Pink and Gosei Knight. They were released before Bluefin worked out US distribution rights, so they can't be rereleased. It's possible we could get metallic repaints of them or something similar, like they did with the Shinkengers, but they can't be released as they were.

I did not know that. I might give them a try for Tiger Ranger then.

[Guyver Spawn]

With Kyoryuger getting adapted next year, I think Bluefin could release the other team members now. At least I don't have to pay $80 for Kyoryu Gold now.

[Sciencefriction]

$80? Jeeze, I can PO right now for $56.

[Guyver Spawn]

Image Anime has him around $75 or $80 from what I can remember.

I rarely order anything from US stores, it costs more and you wait longer. To each their own though, it's just my personal preference.
