Caught this on a lower price.

Now there's a wait for Ultimate Journeys to finish Gen 8 on DVD.

Starting the month off strong.

A very bug(men) and chainsaw(men) package.

An interesting point to note: I now own two Shin movie-related production books, both of which I cannot open because I haven't seen their respective films yet. Bummer.

And if that wasn't enough, an event which shatters reality occurs: How can there be two God Kabuto Shugod Souls? What would this imply? That God Kabuto has many Shugod Souls? That each Shugod Soul corresponds to one God Kabuto respectively? Blasphemy.

Should you try to answer this riddle with a boring statement like "That's because it's a promotional item, you bought two goods which qualify for the campaign so you receive two of them", well, then shame on you.

It helps to be able to watch Pocket Monsters without cable or stream.

All episodes pre Ultimate Journeys on DVD.

Ultimate Journeys and Horizons will be seen on Pokemon TV.

My obsession with Shin Kamen Rider continues ...

Happy Cinco de Mayo!



Seihou Ultraman: My first Ultra figure, when I haven't even properly gotten into the franchise yet. While I was considering waiting for the Deluxe MAFEX figure of Shin Ultraman, I instead opted to get this guy instead. Glad I did too, because it's an all around great figure.



Omega Forever expansion of the Power Rangers card game.



LC Morphed Ken and Cammy: Honestly? Don't bother. These designs done by Hasbro are really lackluster compared to the ones of Ryu and Chun-Li done by the BFTG team. Like, Cammy's isn't terrible, I guess, but Ken's' design is just baffling. Why the upside-down gloves? Why the bare arms? Why the picture of SFV Ken when this costume is clearly based off of SFII Ken? They did my favorite Street Fighter character dirty.



Power Rangers ULTIMATES! Goldar: You should absolutely give this guy a warm bath before playing with him, because those joints are really tight right out of the box. That aside, I dig this guy. The articulation leaves alot to be desired, but the sculpting, paintwork, and great spread of accessories more than makes up for it, I feel. That said, should Hasbro ever make a 7-inch Goldar as part of their Deluxe line? That'd be a very strong contender for sure.



SHF Upgrade's' bendy feathers for Tajador Eternal: These came out alot better than I thought they would. They look almost exactly like the feathers that come on the Seihou itself, and being able to pose them really adds wonders to the posing options of the figure itself. I definitely recommend getting these.



Riobot Tekkaman Blade Blaster Mode



ML Moon Knight: While I'm not as familiar with the character as I'd like to be, I've always loved this costume best for Moon Knight. The contrast between the black and white just really does it for me.



Infinitism Mazinger ZERO: Another model kit to add to the unbuilt pile!



Transformers Armada Universe Hot Shot: Starscream was my favorite Decepticon, and now I have Hot Shot, my favorite Autobot. And just like Starscream, I think that he's overall just okay. Like, I'm happy to have him, but the figure in and of itself isn't anything spectacular, though I don't think I could expect too much more given the price. Still, if any third party company ever does upgrade kits for the two? I'd absolutely get 'em.



SHF Final Form Frieza(Repaint), SS4 Goku, & SS4 Vegeta: Not gonna lie, I am 100% on board with Tamashii doing reissues with better paint jobs. Especially for figures I don't have yet. While I do wish Frieza still had his old energy effect instead of the Dragon Ball, it's not a big deal: That paint job is beautiful in person! As for the SS4s... they're both alright. They have the typical problems have the 3.0 Saiyan bodies do, unfortunately. But, for what they are, I like them well enough.

Thanks for posting a picture of the tajador feathers. I had been wondering how the feathers were plugged in on the figure. It looks like they just tab in on the figure, like a little balljoint or something?

As for SSJ 4 Goku, does your figure have a gap at the top of the face plate between the plate and the bangs? Mine has a mold line that looks like the bangs should perfectly fit into, but the bangs peg in higher up on the head, so the face plate cuts off and has a small gap right before the bangs.

Yeah. Changing them out made me a little nervous because I'm a klutz, but I'm sure it's a pretty simple pop and swap for everyone else haha.

Yeah he does. It's unfortunately an issue that alot of them have. There's a reason no one likes the Vietnam factories that Tamashii used temporarily.

Master Journeys on Pre order from Amazon

The 13th Doctor just got her group set so I may
swap my old disks out this month. Movies on
hold while I uniform my Doctor Who Gen II library.

This is beyond cool. In this case not a double dip
but it will be great to have a streamlined single
collection for the 2005 run.

Traded some minis for these tau suits!
