Neither. The Metal Heroes release pace is pretty slow and we already have three release slots taken: Bikel, Walter and the Winspector option parts set. We'll probably hear about him, Metalder or Gavan v2 after Bikel or maybe Walter's release.
That really sucks. Gekiranger was my most wanted line. I would've bought every character, including variants
Tell me about it, I've been praying for a Jiban.. I would buy 3 of those, thats how bad i need a figuarts Jiban
What? They're releasing all three Winspector members AND a huge accessory pack for them. They might not be going for a lot of franchise variety right now and any future releases will almost certainly be web exclusives, but I'd hardly call it dead in the water just yet.
Finally! Just got an email from BBTS informing me that they expect to get Omegamon in within the next 10 days.
Oh? Didn't realize that they had announced new releases. When was that? But that's good news for people into these. Honestly I wish that they would announce new Sentai stuff to at least finish off the teams with holes in my collection.
Ordered Imperialdramon today. Slowly piecing back all the Digimon figures I skipped. Will probably not get Beelzemon or Dukemon but whatever.
Just got the Super Saiyan Vegeta recolor version(don't have any of the others). I'm liking the face sculpts and overall look of the figure, but i wish he came with the crossed arms gimmick that Piccolo and Cell had. Still cool though.
A lot of people have been asking for a Vegeta with that ability. For some reason the only one with those extra pieces thus far is the Saiyan Saga Vegeta and he's a pretty penny on the aftermarket right now. Hopefully he gets a premium release after SS3 Goku and Perfect Cell.
So my Kakashi I ordered from Anime Poko never arrived and they never responded to any emails or calls regarding it. I started a dispute through PayPal and the refunded me immediately. I ordered it off eBay for a few bucks cheaper so as long as it comes this time it worked out for me. Anyways, just a heads up that Anime Poko is kinda crappy at their business.
Beerus seems to be becoming available in Japan. I'll have to keep an eye out on a couple of my favorite eBay sellers from there now.
Netflix Daredevil S.2 Anyone else watching daredevil S2? Girlfriend and I are mainlining it; onto Episode 7 of 13 already. And its excellent. Got me wishing again for an SHF Netflix Daredevil, as the newer mask design is a great enhancement. Feel sure it'll never happen, but it would look gorgeous in the collection.
Yeah, I'm watching it myself and I just finished Episode 6. I would love Punisher, Daredevil and Eleltra in SHF form. I guess it would depend on if Japan is even getting the Marvel Netflix stuff and if it ends up being as popular as the movies are over there.
Are Vegeta and Trunks the only premium color releases so far? And then SSJ3 Goku and Perfect Cell are on the way? Thinking of jumping into the line, might be a good starting point? TIA
Yeah, SS Vegeta and Trunks are currently the only Premium Color versions out. SS Goku, Piccolo and SS Gohan get reissued from time to time (as they're the only ones that aren't Tamashii Web Exclusives in Japan) so they are pretty easy to get (as long as you don't want the SDCC anime colored versions). SS3 Goku and Perfect Cell haven't been shown off yet, but Bluefin mentioned that they were the next two that would get the Premium Color treatment (and damn does SS3 Goku need it with his original release's ugly Jersey Shore spray tan), but we don't know when that will be and Bandai hasn't said if there will be more themselves. I assume whatever plans they have with Bluefin for more Premium Color releases will depend on how well SS Vegeta and Trunks sell.
