For Faiz we have Delta's bike. Something I didn't know existed until today. It has effect parts and the like for Delta. Of course, it is PB.

For ID2, got both versions of Tycoon Ninja. It's two separate figures, one with Ninja as the top and one as the bottom.

But wait, that gives us 16 boxes. Well...Mary and Gimpen will not have bodies of their own. Their helmets are included with Na-go and Buffa respectively. Here's the full line up:

The case is still 14, so there will be one extra. I hope for an extra Na-go, but I expect it to be Geats Boost Magnum. Also the gun mode of Magnum is included. Lastly, while there's not enough helmets to go around yet, every Rider in this wave has all the stickers options needed.

In Shodo news, remember that Ninjaman tease? Yeah, that was Shodo Super Ninjaman.

Comes with all this. Of course it's PB like all of Shodo Super.

I like everything in ID2. Strong wave, if a bit cramped. Ninjaman...yeah, I'm buying that. Thankfully the set is very small, so the importing shouldn't be to bad.

I'm glad the Entry forms turned out to be two characters per figure because I was finding it a huge waste that it was looking like the majority of the wave would be essentially the same boring black plastic figure with a different head -- especially pointless when you consider that two of the characters involved (Nago and Buffa) would be able to just create their Entry form between both their signature buckle figures.

This way it's just Ginpen and Merry with alternate Buffa and Nago heads while the majority of the wave goes to actual designs. MUCH better.

Yes, you can do that with the Ginpen/Buffa set, but technically not with the Na-go boxes since that body has the arms that are exclusive to her, you would need to get parts from another entry form to make a Mary.

Noticed something odd while trying to find if Amiami had put up preorders for Donbros Yu-Do 2. I couldn't find a listing, and in fact couldn't find a listing for any So-Do since By8. No Geats, no Faiz, no later waves of Kabuto. Did they just start listing them under some other name I'm unaware of, or does Amiami no longer sell X-Do figures?

Delta's vehicle, the Jetsliger was one of the coolest RC toys I've ever seen.

Happy to see its back!

Amiami hasn?t stocked candy toys in quite some time it seems. Best bet now is HLJ, Hobby Genki, or Anime Export

Kurona · 10-23-2022, 04:17 PM

That is a shame, I found them the most reliable. Suppose hobby-genki wouldn't be bad, actually; but I'll miss the sales

MrWilliamGraham · 10-24-2022, 06:02 AM

Yea, before I scaled back on candy toy, amiami was my preferred site. My gripe with HLJ is that their stock sells out very quickly, at least that's my impression.

Anime-Export seems to have their listings last a bit longer after going live, but it looks like they only carry the retail items. I've had all my orders fulfilled with them so I recommend, though I don't know if they carry as many retail sentai sets as they do rider

Hobby Genki at least also carries any PB stuff for the most part

Not posting pictures because some of it might be considered spoilers.
Good news: Shodo-XX is making Black Sun figures.
Better news: They're making four things, Black Sun, his bike, Shadow Moon, and the mantis kajin.
Bad news: It's all Premium Bandai.
Worse news: It's in two sets, so these 4 toys will ultimately cost more.

Here's the blog link if you want to take a look at them.
