    They all look so amazing! I really want Flame Stag. But how much is 10,000 yen?

    Almost 100$ Before shipping and middleman services, also since the con is done Idk where you’d find one, maybe yahoo japan auctions?, and u will still need to build and paint it, also It’s almost certainly resin, which is much more difficult to build than a plastic kit

    Someone will likely KO it in the form of a recast eventually (that megaman zero has already been KOd), but be warned recasted resin kits require more work, time, and skill than Originals to get looking good

    AmiAmi actually has Chogokin Rockman for a lot cheaper at 7300 yen: Chogokin - Mega Man X: GIGA ARMOR X[Bandai]
    Tempted to pick it up at that price but I'm not 100% convinced on it after seeing video reviews. Seems like the armor pieces can be annoying when used as armor and hinders articulation a bit (which isn't too surprising).

    I, myself, didn't experience any issues with my copy. The shoulders did pop out, but only if I posed the shoulders in a careless way where the body would push them out. Can't fault the figure for that.
    Also, if you pull Rush's tail, the back piece pops up for the behicle mode. I don't think I had seen anyone cover that.
    Some reviewers didn't even put some parts on right...

    I think that if you like it and want it, get it!
    It's a nice, solid figure and I really like it.

    Yeah, I'm sure overall it's a good figure, I'm just not sure if I really need it in my collection. Haha.

    The Loyal Subjects Blindbox Mega Mans at Hot Topic are buy 2 get 1 free.

    ETA: I'm so disappointed! 1 Bass and 2 Zeros. :cry : I so desperately wanted Skull, Cut and Proto. I had good feelings about the boxes I chose too.

    Would anyone be willing to trade for my extra Zero please?

    Its not.........terribly awful. Its 20 years behind. But whatever. If we get robot masters ill buy all of them. But again, for the 1000th time, another Mega Man is not necessary.

    I don't recommend buying it from EE either. They always oversell and don't have the decency to actually notify you of a problem (usually spun to be your fault, like a card they never charged being overlimit somehow or your address that works everywhere else being undeliverable) until it's sold out everywhere else.

    Hmm, maybe I should just take this opportunity to pick up the other EXE forms and the Red Star Force figure. Lan is tempting too though I think he was too expensive for me the first time. Haha
