Hasbro usually has the Convention stuff on their Store site either during or the day after the convention. But like the stuff at convention it goes fast.

Get hype!

Now upgraded
She feels really solid, yet eerily fragile in most places. Her sword comes out and she came with her Shikai Zanpakuto as well as another set of hands... however the hands aren't too flexible so the swords can't be held without fear of breaking the parts. What the fuck.

What's the matter? Expecting another flat chested animu girl? Too bad, it's just me, Garrus.

There's a new line of models of DC Comics women as 1950's pin-ups.

http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/gamereport/awesome_stuff_exclusive_batgirl_cgx2DKQd6rpFzE9i6dX8jM#axzz2YZ2Guy6h Barbara looks amazing, and she gets my vote for "redesign I'd most like to see cosplayed", but the scarf/cape combo seems a little redundant.

http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?number=DC31313#.UdyN6D49x74 Diana's expression is a little weird, but I love her costume. Kinda like a badass 50's mechanic, just a little more pinup-y. Love the definition on her legs, too.

http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?number=DC31350#.UdyN6T49x74 Kara's bustier-dress and scarf look great. Love the gold detailing, and that smile.

http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?number=DC0025#.UdyN6z49x74 Pamela gets my vote for the best pose. Love that simple-but-elegant old-school lingerie.

http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?number=DC0049#.UdyN7D49x74 Harley wouldn't look out of place in Borderlands 2, she has a Mechromancer look to her. Love the jacket, belt, boots, and goggles. Red-tipped hair looks way better than that half red/half black look.

>>212318
Fragility confirmed. I stood her up and rocked her back and forth lightly to try and get her into a position where she could stand... and the little o-ring that held her foot on broke in half.

You can say what you want about American figures, but at least they don't beak from simply standing up.

>>212413

That's weird, considering that other Play Arts Kai toys seem much more sturdy. Most of my Metal Gear toys can stand on their own just fine.

...Then again, the Akuma and Chun Li toys I had busted straight out of the box and I had to send them back...

>>212433
That sucks. Street Fighter figures seem pretty pricy and hard to come by (in my experience). Hope you got good replacements.

As for Rukia, ya one of the biggest complaints with her was that her feet snap off way too easy... I really hope I can fix her, but with the way the figure's weighted and how thin her legs are... I don't know. Seems like they didn't really think things through.

>>212439

The part that sucks is that I'm still waiting on those replacements. Cammy and Ryu are still facing off on my shelf, they were fine when they arrived.

This kid knows what's up.

Problem seems to be reversed when it comes to HQ anime figurines, but different markets and demographics, etc.

I approve of this.

Girl with the most talent coming up.

I'm happy that they're churning them out so fast but goddamn my wallet is suffering.

>>212992
Better picture.

>>212993
now I wonder if they'll make everyone.

>>213018
If they don't I will be severely disappointed.

wondered what Wave 2 would be

>>213052
I thought Wave 2 was Bebop and Rocksteady

>>213053
I thought that was just part along with Movie stuff, maybe I'm mistaken and this is Wave 3. Hope we get a new April in there at some point.

>>213052
Well atlest its not the new movie turtles.
And they coming out the same year as...
Oh cleaver!

New Smile Precure Figuarts!

>Pics and a Vid of Scalpers from Comic Con.

Yea killed my want for any exclusives this year.

>>213779
Do the people running the convention and/or the official sellers of the exclusives do anything about scalpers at present, or is their mindset seemingly "so long as they're buying our merch and padding our pockets before they go try to rip people off, we don't care"?

>>213786
Some merchandisers selling direct at convention are strict about it because they know some assholes just do it and then turn around and sell it at their booth across the floor. Mattel I know for one has a history of enabling that kinda behavior allowing scalpers to just buy whole cases of merch though and last I heard the convention itself can do little to curtail that behavior. Hasbro is a bit more fair since they usually have whatever is on floor also up on their site at some point as well.

Hey, as someone pretty much completely out of the loop on how this stuff works, could someone more educated than me explain why a figure can be publicly shown more or less complete looking and then disappear for years? Something I've been curious about.

>>215857
licensing and scheduling are some of the primaries with sales being another. Domon didn't exactly burn up the sales charts hence Master Asia gets shelved with only recently coming back out into the open with their starting to pursue the Western Market same with Digimon. The other is what happens with Figma in that what is more popular and a sure sale such as figures from the most popular girl show or famous celeb getting pushed to the front and others such as Sunred and his associated sitting in limbo for years or being released as exclusive. Thankfully the exclusive bit isn't has bad as it used to be with Goodsmile having an international shop and Bandai putting most what they think will sell through the Blue Fin distribution.

Hot Wheels Attack Pack Retrospect Review
Added to list of thing that needs a reboot.

>>215858
I'd buy a Domon figure. G Gundam is to this day the only Gundam I've seen. And it bred in me a love of international teams, outrageous sideburns, and dramatic yelling.

No wonder I love TF2 so much.

Oh come the fuck on, how has this happened again? How?

I bought this same Chun Li toy, but sent it back when the legs Papa's easily. After waiting several months for the store to find a replacement, I said "screw it" except a refund, and took my business to Amazon. New toy comes in, both legs can pop off easy, and both arms break straight out of the box. Was this just... a bad toy? Was it just not made well? Because this is really frustrating.

>>216074
Its just Shoddy sadly. PAK is VERY hit and miss as a line. MGS stuff is said to be great and sturdy while things outside the line are very hit and miss.

I do so love the idea of this fella. This Rangers answer to things 'MERICA!!!

Has anyone had any problems with Riobot Blodia? Mine has a stuck right hip joint (left moves fine). I suspect they somehow accidentally superglued the joint because there was a visible blob of it outside the joint, so there may be some within the joint itself.

Would dripping nail polish remover/acetone into the joint fix it, or do I have to return this sucker to HobbyLinkJapan? I'm afraid it'll damage the joint as well.

I love amazon so much you guys

ZX, Skyrider and Super 1

I was totally wanting their Robot Detective K but he's a statue

Broke down and bought these three at a recent con Sunday. Was 190 bucks for all three, which was okay-ish, but I'm just glad to have a Chun Li that wasn't goddamn busted right away.

Aaand thank you Mandarake!

Getting in my First D-Arts in. Like Terry to much to pass up getting him for about 20 also those effect parts will be super useful.

Don't know if this goes here.

>Order arrived at JFK Customs on the 18th
Ten days later
>Its now back in Japan
Well something isn't right.

Neat didn't know about these until the update in my box. Eagerly await Amazon getting them in.

And all the gang is here!

People saying the Figma Spidey looks more Mayday then Peter, I've Zero problems with that. Suit actually would work better for her anyway. Now to just find a decent Figma that can be Anime May for head swaps.

Anyone have DC Direct Red Son Batman?

I really like how Batman looks... but the figure itself doesn't look like much fun, mainly because it doesn't seem to have much articulation.

>>223313
Its a DC Direct so no the articulation won't be much, barely any movement at all really.

>>223313
>>223315
But just look at that sexy hat. Damn it's sexy.

>>223323
as a Display piece they are great, just don't expect to be making action scenes with them.

>>223315
>>223328
Thanks Bunker. Probably won't pick it up then, especially at $60 which is the cheapest I've found it.

>>223323
Right? Goddamn sexy Russian Batman.
