    Unlike the other pokemon blastoise works really well in toy form.

    I'm really anxious to see which Pokemon are getting a release after the Kanto starts, there's so many to choose from and so many that would work well in toy form. I'm more excited for these than I am the upcoming Mega Man stuff.

    Can someone tell me the release date for Mewtwo? For some reason I thought it was earlier this month, but I guess that's not right.

    Agreed. Blastoise is the only really good looking one out of all of them. I don't like Charizard and Mewtwo because of all the ugly joints that are needed that break up the normally smooth and seamless design. This is why I mostly only collect robot/mech toys because this isn't an issue for those.

    I believe Mewtwo's coming out the 30th or 31st. One or the other. Can't wait for him though. I hope he's not a disappointment cause he looks great so far.

    Cancelled my D-Arts X preorder. Gotta end some collections before they even start to pick up.

    Amiami put up more Mewtwo. Just dropped my BBTS order to grab one. Hoping shipping is only like $15... Or less, since I don't have anything else shipping with it unless it gets delayed till April, when I have too much shipping!

    Man, that Blastoise looks great, but that really is the first figure of the Pokemon line I've immediately that that about. All the others are just too segmented for me thanks to all the joints.

    On that note, if anyone is interested in Mewtwo or Charizard, I have them both preordered through Amiami, but no longer want them, as I severely need to cut down my collection in both spending and size.

    I know they're back up and available again, but I thought I'd make the offer anyway.

    I could have them shipped directly from Amiami to your address, or just ship them once I receive them. The first method would just be a bit cheaper due to only being shipped once. Send me a PM me if you're interested.

    They all really look great together. Mewtwo's torso seems to have been shortened quite a bit though. Unless there's a joint that can be pushed down/pulled out? The new look is technically more accurate to the Sugimori art...but I think I like him better with the longer torso... He still looks great though.

    Pretty sure theres a joint at the hips to extend the legs. Its like that with all the other D-Arts and SHFs that I've owned.

    Not yet, but I think preorders will be going up soon.

    I don't mean the legs. I mean like, the mid section/lower chest? The piece above the hips, not the hips themselves. Regardless, Mewtwo still looks good. I don't think I'll regret ordering two.

    No regrets having 3/4 of them currently pre-ordered.

    Ahhh ok, I was thinking of the hips when I you said extended/shortened. Anyways, it does look like the abdomen section has gotten smaller. I don't know if it can extend though. I know most of the DBZ SHFs were able to extend their abs.

    They do look cool all together, I'm personally just interested in Mewtwo myself. I still don't get how they couldn't get the licensing to have it distributed in the US, considering how huge it is over here.

    So...does anyone here have the D-Art of Yukiko's Persona? How is it?
