    Checking into these on HLJ. I think I'm going to have to order Ark when they resume ordering.

    I'm tempted to get both Maochao and Howling for Cat vs. Dog shenanigans.
    Do the weapon sets come with alternate heads?

    They come with one character-specific head, if that's what you mean. They don't come with multiple heads.

    I can understand a grown-up man collecting robots, but articulated Barbies? No way.

    Is there any way we can ban Megatroptimus from this thread? He insulted the Shinkis :p

    Oh fer. . .

    OK, so now using these to find a way around not being able to get ahold of that particular Bisar isn't going to work now that I know how utterly awesome they look combined.

    Somebody get a rope. We got us a lynching to perform.

    Ah ok, it's mens version of Barbie. Instead of dressing her with dresses and stuff, it's robot parts. Clever.

    :D

    Well, let's not forget there's also the dog, the cat, and the mermaid. We all know how freakin' manly mermaids are.

    Cosmo, thanks for the pics :)  I'd seen the w/weapons pics but not a w/Bisor pic. After seeing NF's size comparison pic I somewhat thought they wouldn't fit in a Bisor.

    Well, the limbs are very thin in comparison with an AmDriver figure, not to mention you can rip off appendages quickly and easily for replacement on Shinkis.

    Even though the date hasn't been set as of yet, expect a late November release for Wave 7. Shinkis are usually 3 months between waves, and Wave 6 is due at the end of August.
