So Figuarts Megaman Zero finally arrived to me today.

He's... actually really really good! The best Zero they've put out so far.

PROS:
-His hair is detachable and poseable
-No floppy joints
-Paint is wonderful, a nice shiny red with a glossy dark purple for the body, everything is painted (Unlike the Model Kit)
-The little holsters on his legs have removable pegs in them if you pose him with a weapon out.

CONS:
-The hair is still ugly
-The weapons are all sourced from Zero 1, so you get the infinitely less interesting Triple Rod (With no spin effect or extending effect) compared to the Chain Rod or Recoil Rod, also no Z-Knuckle.
-Only two faces (Standard angry face and looking to the left yelling face) and three sets of hands (two fists, two Buster holding hands and two Saber/Triple Rod hands), the Boomerang is treated as a separate bracelet (Which means you could combo that and both Buster and Saber/Rod but that'd be silly)
-The little pegs in his holsters are a [sonic slicer] and a half to get out. And they're tiny.
-Zero's neck just seems too long.

All in all, he's nice. some flaws here and there but nothing dealbreaking like shitty Zero Version 2.

So I'm not the only one who's version 2 Zero buster arm keeps falling off or gobbed plastic preventing the saber arm from posing outwardly?  X(

Well, that was fast.



The only good Kirito (implying there is a good kirito) is up for preorder now.

And yet, still no Satsuki, or ZSS, or LBW Link.

What the hell, they were all announced/prototyped before GGO Kirito was. Guess the SAO Train is still going strong enough to expedite these things.

They've stated in the past that figures that were made as Web Exclusives in Japan are much harder for them to get for re-issue.

That's why Trunks, Vegeta (Both Scouter and SSJ), Cell, Frieza, Krillin, Normal Goku, Androids 17 and 18, and now Broly are getting up there in price. I mean, its not like they haven't done a reissue of a Web Exclusive thing before. Its just they are sort of at the mercy of Bandai Japan.

I imagine the same will happen with Vegitto and Android 16 when they release. Considering they basically do this only for the US market now we're the main demand makers.

Of course there is demand for Vegeta and Trunks and them to get reissues since anything above $60 is sort of horseshit for these figures, but I guess it needs to be more than what it is?

Vul Eagle arrived earlier today, and damn does he look good!

I guess all I can really say is it isn't exactly what I'd expect out of a $4.4M game

It doesn't even have mouth animations

Well we've seen Episode IV Han and Luke from the S.H. Figuarts line.



We haven't seen Episode VI Luke though, so here you go.

Looks like a second Winter Wonfes exclusiv- Oh its just another Saber.

Literally Miku (an annual tradition of a new Snow Miku every year) and Saber.

Its always been a joke and less of a serious thing.

nice fanservice

no release date yet, but her preorders go up next week (And she's 6,480 yen for MSRP, unfortunately that's the price to pay if you want her split swords plus 2,000 yen for shipping otherwise you don't get them.)

Out in August.

Super Sailor Moon time.

Which basically just leaves... Sailor Pluto, Eternal Sailor Moon, the Starlights, Super Sailor Chibimoon, a few weapons (Cutie Moon Rod, Moon Kaledoscopic), and basically some new Bows/Brooches for Super forms of the other girls (Which I don't think are interchangable so that's probably not happening).

By the way, WONFEST on Feb 8th.

So [parasitic bomb] will probably start showing up tomorrow.

EDIT: Or today...

UNFORTUNATELY, it seems the DMG was a scale, as there hasn't been a sighting of a figma for her.


This one's got a lot of stuff, but the notables are the (FE3) Marth, Caeda and Majora's Mask Young Link at the bottom.








Other [parasitic bomb] I saw popping up:
SAS Johnathan Joestar
figma announcements for the SAO cast's ALO Avatars (Which means Leafa, Stupid Elf Kirito and Bluesuna)
figma announcement for Emiya Shirou 2.0 (Which looks to be his school uniform)
MBS (More Boat [parasitic bomb] that I can't give two shits about.)
Sabermania 2015 (Some Mysterious Heroine X, Nero, Mordred, that sort of stuff alongside classic flavor saber)
TOO MUCH LEWD holy [parasitic bomb] /a/ what the hell
figma Venus De Milo, AKA a posable figure with one joint. I think there's a version with arms as well for some reason.

[parasitic bomb] that's gone missing:
figma Zero Suit Samus
figma ALBW Link
figma Hulk
A bunch of other stuff that vanished under the boatshit swarm.

figuarts showings are scant, but they have their own events as well so those typically crop up later on.

The figma showings are a bit sad too. But then again this is only the first hour, maybe more stuff will pop up.

DEVASTATOR IS COMING. $25 individually packed Constructicons as part of the new and coming Combiner Wars line, probably a complete box at some point(?). Just one Constructicon is larger than G1 Devastator!!


Also there will be a similar combiner for Defensor, an Ultra Magnus with mini vehicle and a... Galvatron head Cyclonus...?

Those people who just bought their Masterpiece Ultra Magnus lately... HAHAHAH :P

I guess all I can really say is it isn't exactly what I'd expect out of a $4.4M game

It doesn't even have mouth animations

Put it this way: $150 Titan-class Devastator vs. $500+ MakeToys Hercules

Gonna try really hard to get that Devastator, depending on whether I can get past Hasbro's region bullshit on Amazon.

Other TFs in the pic are Starscream, Ironhide, Metal Hawk and Arcee.

[spoiler]
Edit: At this point scrapper is dead so the placement of the team are all different, Megatron can also still be the head in his current body. [/spoiler]

You should check out IDW's comics. A few miss stories here and there but mostly well written.

I must say, the 00 Raiser is one of the most fun & one of the best Gunplas I have ever built. The flexibility, all the options, the LED lights. Very nice model.
