The only things I have to look forward to this month are Ryuuko and another set of Sailor Moon Blind Boxes, this time with the untransformed cast.

October's just Toon Link.

November's just Saber and I think the MMZero Figuarts.

December's the hell month for figures (November's the one for Games), with Major Motoko, Sword Sue's Re-release (Only because I want more swords and I need a punching bag for Archer), and Luigi.

I tried to get him to stand on the couch, Tom Cruise style, but nope. Might (read: probably, kaching$$$) need a Tamashii stand to do that.

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

Wait. No one said anything about Bandai having the rights to making Star Wars plamo/Damashii?

Very disappointing.


I'm watching you all. Always watching.

I believe I posted a picture of a figuarts Stormtrooper and a Samurai Vader way back when.

I demand plastic models!

1/12 Darth Vader


1/12 Storm Trooper


1/72 Tie Advanced x1


1/72 X-Wing Starfighter


The bases of the Fighters are even the surface plates of the Death Star!

Models aren't my forte. I'm not very good at painting or stuff like that.

But those do look snazzy (Presumably they look considerably less so out of the box).

True, but since this is Bandai, for the most part, the colours are there, and maybe just need minimal painting. One sure thing is that Vader's helmet will be shiny out of the box.

The Figurarts Zero of the Sailor Scouts are pretty nice!

Well considering Figuarts Zero usually cost like $40 and these cost $90 (Because Volks is the company doing the sculpts as opposed to Bandai themselves and Volks stuff is typically expensive) they sure as [parasitic bomb] better look nice.

Most people complain about a few of them (Venus and Jupiter in particular) are similing whilst attacking but honestly its not a super huge problem or anything.

I don't suppose taxidermy counts?  Because I added a species of borer beetle to my collection.  Granted, it's a bracelet, but it's a taxidermy insect all the same.

NEED MORE TAXIDERMY

I caved and got the Ryuuko figma.

its pretty good, although Im kind of disappointed at the ankle joint's limited mobility. makes posing it a bit difficult at times, but its a minor complaint.

day 1 buy on the eventual satsuki

...When Larry the reploid accountant goes maverick of his own accord, he's certainly formidable during tax season, but he isn't going to provide X the challenge needed to make him grow as a warrior and reach his potential.

I'm not sure why you'd admit to buying merchandise from that trash but it is you Flame, so I'm not surprised.

Leg articulation bugging you?

Newer figmas such as Archer and Ryuko have Thigh swivels.

screw you I liked it. It was different enough to be enjoyable, although it did parody so hard it became what it was parodying, so about halfway it starts dropping in quality.

I know, I know, still, ankles bug me.

Apparently an Orange Box is a variant but if its Papercraft it could just be reversible.

((Best Pic I could find))

Found the "Konami SF Movie Selection" USS Enterprise (Refit) model at my local comic store for a pretty cheap 7$ Canadian. It's pretty sturdy and larger than I thought. I kinda want to track down the Reliant and Enterprise-E now.  >w<

Vegitto in May 2015. Looks like this time they had the good sense to include both the normal and Super Saiyan heads instead of having them be seperate figures.

So pricy.
