Hobby Search as well, and it was cheaper there than on AmiAmi by 900 yen.

Does this happen like, randomly, or is there a time of day when they make available all their cancelled preorder stock? Have you ever used Hobby Search's wait list feature? Does it ever work? |

So uh, late to the party, But I just got the 20 KRKV Kamen Rider Build and Faiz ( I missed Build last year for some reason)
You can see that Faiz's sculpt is severely outdated. It needs a SS version. So Faiz is still my priority, this one isn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it didn't age well. Well, oddly enough I'm not disappointed, I knew what I was getting and I never bought the Figure Rise version as I didn't know if it would scale well with the Figuarts Line. You can see the comparison in height in the picture I've attached to my post anyway. |

Yeah this was the most unpleasant experience I had with AmiAmi so far. No biggie in retrospect, I could've ordered from other shops, I just already had an April order with AmiAmi so only paying for one shipment is the better deal.
The good side of this is that Tamashii apparently did everything right with that campaign of theirs because Kiva sold like freaking hot cakes. Hope this means more; I really want an IXA as well. Wouldn't say no to Kiva Emperor and Dark Kiva with cloth capes either. Quote:

And yeah, Faiz is outdated, that picture is about what I expected when you stack up an old mold like this against something from 2018. I wouldn’t be too sad with the purchase either though, a good figure is a good figure, even if it doesn’t work too well with the modern releases anymore it’s still a lot of fun to play with |

Actually I have found a way so that Faiz doesn't appear too small next to the others.
Since it's an old figuarts mold, I thought that it worked the same way as the first DBZ figuarts at the upper torso. You can actually make him appear taller by pulling up the torso a bit. And secondly, I used the stand, so it doesn't appear to be that bad in my display. I'm fairly happy with my purchase and I don't regret it. |

I remember back when Figuarts first started: that one and Kamen Rider Yuki were highly sought after to the point where I would frequently see them going for triple digits, crazy huh?
