    And I didn't even get started on how much I dislike her hips...

    Just opened Armorer now. Not sure how I feel about her yet. Hasbro's was just so darn good it really makes this overpriced one not really worth it (especially if you got the con exclusive one with the soft fur). I came around on the Heavy Mando and liked him more in the end, but right now the Armorers are about on par. So with one being substantially cheaper, option seems clear there. The worst part is probably how she's looking to be the last Star Wars release for at least a long while.

    Oh I also got Pac-Man this week! He's as simple as expected but it works lol. Something's a little wrong with the right shoulder on mine. The two halves of aren't sitting flush, but it looks fully pegged in. Not sure how to really rectify that, so guess I'm just gonna hope it doesn't cause problems. They separate a bit more than I'd like when moving the arm and it just doesn't feel right. But he's cheap enough replacing it wouldn't be so painful either.

    I am interested in this but I do agree, I think I will wait to see if she gets discounted after release since I pre-ordered the BoP Harley and now she's cheap. Haha. Hopefully doesn't backfire.

    I had initially planned to pre-order Gamora but took too long to and she sold out. Now I am sort of glad I didn't but have been watching Mandarake for her in case her price drops. Definitly a bit disappointed in what I've seen in reviews but my Nebula needs Gamora to go with her. lol.

    Pac-Man! Where’d you buy him? I’ve been looking forward to that one. He seems like a fun little photobomber...lol...

    The new Harley looks great as I like the more traditional costume compared with her other outfits. I’ve not gotten an SH figure before so I’m not sure if it’s worth it or wait for a domestic release.

    Hope they reissue the ginyu force so I can get them at a price that doesn't make me want to bang my head off a table.

    With majority of them being p-bandai exclusive, very highly unlikely.

    I think the belt is a bit weird on the new Harley and should be a separate piece rather than sculpt that gets broken up.

    Still getting it though...

    I've been trying to talk myself into posable Chiaotzu w/bonus Tien but I just can't. I have the original Tien, and I figure if TN will do a Baby Yoda solo release, they can re-release Chiaotzu on its own later on.

    Maybe they can do a gift set with all of them down the road? An "Event Exclusive Color Edition" SDCC-style set could come in handy.

    I.. really wouldn't bet on that.

    That old Tien could probably sell for enough to cover the new one if you only want one of him too.

    Domestic DC Figuarts have traditionally home down in price after a while. And unlike Marvel they don't need to be jacked up with a ton of accessories to sell at retail.

    Although, I would like it if Harley came with any accessories, since she seems not to.

    Betting/assuming? No. But with everything Tamashii Nations has been doing with Dragon Ball the past few years, I don't see why Chiaotzu can't get a solo release of some kind, even if it isn't this specific look. I also wouldn't rule out a barely different SDCC re-release of this Tien & Chiaotzu some kind either at some point, for anyone that misses out.

    Multiple hands & accessories will be included. Also I wasn’t aware of a domestic SH Figuarts? I thought they are only from imports?

    King Shark please Bandai, as I don't want to even try and acquire the inevitable BAF from McFarlane Toys...

    The only thing I like on the 2012 Hulk over the IW Hulk is the bicep swivel...

    Not really worth getting him just for that.
