Kylo Ren gallery. http://blog.livedoor.jp/hacchaka/archives/51967367.html Looks good to me, I'm glad I passed on all that Black Series crap, I'll be sticking with Figuarts, I think they've all been pretty fantastic so far. -
HLJ had First Order Troopers and Kylo back up for pre-order last night for about 15 minutes, I managed to snag one of each. It seems we're getting closer to release, so hopefully all of you that missed out can camp HLJ and the other usual guys to grab a pre-order if you still want to.

I get that, and I was aware long ago about this change of policy, my problem is they never outlined details for it, or how long before release they would start sending out payment requests. I expected, at earliest, maybe a month or two before release to get a payment request, but this is barely a month after I pre-ordered they already want their money. This pay later option isn't all that helpful in my opinion, yes I didn't have to pay exactly on the spot at the time of the order, but a month after pre-order? That isn't very helpful at all, if they were more up front with their time frames I'd be more forgiving, but they gave no details, they just said certain Bandai items can no longer be put on pay later, and they didn't give info on when pay later items would need to be paid for, once again, barely a month after pre-order means pretty much nothing to me. Sucky overall, I'll still end up getting a Roy 1S, but not from NY, not like this, as others said, this lack of details threw my budgeting off, I wasn't expecting to have to pay for an April release item now.

I got one too, pretty sucky in my opinion. I signed up for pay later, which I guess technically is happening, but later apparently means about a month later, not roughly at around time of release. Unfortunately I don't have it now, so I'm letting it cancel, this policy is pretty idiotic, maybe they should start labeling when they will decide to send out the still really early payment requests, just labeling the option pay later when it only gives you a little over a month after you pre-order to pay is not only shady in my opinion, but also barely correct advertising of the pay later function. Here we are at Christmas, and they are demanding $100 for a figure that won't release until April, go frakk yourself NY.

That looks like a ton of fun, Bebop and Rocksteady look great. I really liked the first one, so I'll be there opening weekend, Stephen Amell as Casey Jones works for me too. Turtles certainly look less "cluttered" this time around, and yes, almost a bit smaller, not as small or as drastic a change as I think they initially let on, but I'll take it, plus actual foot ninjas, not just dudes with guns. The Shell Raiser looks pretty awesome, plus it actually launches man hole covers!

I believe just yesterday or the day before AmiAmi had more Regults up, for like 15 minutes. If you miss out on this first batch, I'd keep an eye open for when they announce the pre-order date for the missile variants, hopefully on those you can remove the missile bits and have just a basic Regult too.
-
I went ahead and grabbed a Hikaru 1S on NY, the price dipped to $91 from the $108 it was at just last night. I figured the price wouldn't move anywhere but up, so I might as well grab it now while I can. After EMS shipping, and paying in yen, I got away at $110 shipped, not too terrible, more then I wanted to pay, but I wanted it pretty badly so there you go.

I had way more fun with Syndicate then I thought I would. I only played an hour or two of Unity though, that may be why I enjoyed Syndicate so much, I wasn't as assassin fatigued as most people, and I wasn't angry and still filled with the bad taste of Unity's mess, plus, I'm a sucker for old-school London.

Oh snap, a slew of new Star Wars Figuarts news and pics. http://news.toyark.com/2015/12/04/lots-new-photos-upcoming-star-wars-sh-figuarts-184082 Mace Windu you say? I'll take one, and all the Clone and Droid variants you have.
-
I take it you plan on doing another run right? I just hit 73 hours, level 42, and I just barely started doing railroad missions, I haven't found the institute yet, and the last story thing I did was deal with Kellogg. I spent a couple of hours last night running through a few railroad missions until I got the option from Tinkerer Tom to make ballistic fabric enhanced clothing, unbelievably, my vault suit has more overall armor then nearly my entire actual armor set.

Saw this, had to post it, since Doomsday immediately reminded me of this. Edit: Pic deleted, no3ljm beat me to it. And yes, it's confirmed, that is indeed Doomsday, not a Doomsday like monster, but the cinematic version of Doomsday. It definitely seems like they tried to show off a lighter side in this new trailer, but it just feels muddled to me, and like others said, it still just seems like too much for one film. Time will tell, but sadly at this point, I'm not expecting much.

Predator isn't a Figuarts figure, he's Monsterarts technically. I have the same version of Monsterarts Predator, he's pretty great in my opinion, a solid number of accessories and what not help, lack of stand sucks. The Monsterarts Alien Warriors are okay, I got two just to pose with my Predator. The Monsterarts Aliens look pretty good, but they're quite wonky, the tails weren't handled well and easily fall off, and the whole thing feels kind of flimsy, that all said, they're pretty dirt cheap now so if you're looking to grab a couple, I'd recommend them if you can get them for less than $40 each.

I got two of each, I think they look great. I plan on getting two of every fodder release, except the scout troopers, they look cool, but I just think they're too much. CDJapan says they should be delivered today, or at least two clones and a droid, I had no idea CDJapan had that stupid, ship limit of three items non-sense, or I would have gotten two of each from them. One more droid is at HLJ in my private warehouse, with other goodies... Did anyone lock down a Pikachu? I got one on HLJ and surprisingly they eventually hit order stop, I didn't think Pikachu would sell out that quick on pre-orders, that said, he looks to have more articulation then the Figuarts Bowser, which is incredibly lame. Edit: I assumed after seeing shots of the clones crouched that they added the little pop out and shifting leg, but nope, like Mommar pointed out, severely limited leg articulation like the Stormtroopers, lame again, but I still want them.

And you didn't have to comment about the argument, but someone always does and will. It doesn't hurt anybody, it's an argument about transforming plastic jet toys, if it bothers people so much they can stop coming to the site, or skim past what they don't want to read. I won't apologize for it, and I can care less if it comes off as petty. If it's such a childish thing and you're tired of it, stay out of it if it bothers you so much. I refuse to stop, it's not breaking rules, it's just passions apparently running very high about toys. It's a forum, 90% of the point of forums is to devolve into completely pointless arguments about stuff most normal people on the street would have zero clue about. Once again, the people complaining about the people complaining add to the mess of complaints and apparent pointlessness.

Right? It's like he tried to make a point, but since one is more then double the retail of the other, common sense would dictate this is a point that doesn't need to be made, and that "best" is still subjective. I guess he really wants us to know he doesn't like the Hi-Metal valks. Thinking back, what color were Arcadia's VF-1s? Were they the nice bright TV white? Were they the off DYRL white? No you say? What color were they? Were they some odd, what the hell is this shade of pinkish white? Yes they were. Best my ass, at more then twice the price they couldn't even get the color right, yet again, this is a trend with them now.

For those that got theirs, did Bandai include the extra tip to make the strike parts super? Just a little thing, but I've been wondering since this came out.
-
Edit: Forget it, deleted post.
-
I'm hoping so, I really want one despite it not matching up with my Regults when I get them. For how much people hate on and complain about the Hi-Metal valks, they sure do seem to sell pretty well . Totally spaced on AmiAmi and other sites allowing you to buy multiples, despite me having 3 Regults on lock at AmiAmi itself...

I don't think there was an American Hasbro release of Masterpiece BumbleBee, the official Takara version is it. There is a G1 and G2 version, I like the G1 version myself, the G2 Autobot symbol hurts my head to look at, other then that, I'm pretty sure they're the same figure, though, I guess you can lock down a pre-order on the red BumbleBee repaint if you want, but once again, same thing just a different color. I always go to Bigbadtoystore for my official MP releases if they've already come out, pre-order new releases at HLJ if you can. You can also go down the KO route if you really want to...Though that's always a pass for me, you gotta support Takara in my eyes. -
Well damn, nobody has put the Hikaru 1S back up and I REALLY don't feel like paying NY's mark up price. If anyone's not happy with theirs, or if you've got an extra you're looking to move, PM me. I'm baffled by how many people got multiples, I thought everyone had their pre-order limits set to one? Geez, as if it's not already difficult enough to lock down even one of these Hi-Metal releases.

I think you saw what said character won't see coming, causing said character to no longer see well. I definitely DO think we'll see that in the mid-season finale as the big ending gut puncher, Rick's new blonde friend's child was looking quite unstable to me, and with the crap hitting the fan in the next episode, there will definitely be room for error from the amateur fighters in Alexandria.

Captain America: Civil War, on Bluray Sept 13, 2016

Ant-Man is DEFINITELY on Cap's shoulder. -
I don't think Lucille is making an appearance in the mid-season finale if that's what you're referring to, her wielder was only just cast, I don't even think he's shot a scene yet. But if you mean the Alexandrian's, and one prominent hat wearing character in particular should keep an eye out, then yes, I'm nearly positive we'll see that in the next episode.

Captain America: Civil War, on Bluray Sept 13, 2016
Tking22 replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Very awesome trailer, wasn't the biggest fan of Winter Soldier, but this is looking good. I gotta ask it, where's Spider-Man? Also I didn't catch Ant-Man in there, I'll have to watch it again, maybe he's just tiny and hanging out on someone's shoulder like in that promo pic from a few weeks back. -
Pretty boring episode until the last 30 seconds, exactly what everyone though happened to you know who did happen? Lame, he's got, like, heavy duty polished, deep pocketed plot armor on.
