I put about 6 Hot Toys/Statue boxes in a huge lawn trash bags, tagged the bags with which characters are in the bag, tie it really tight so no bugs can get in and they are stored in a small crawl space storage area.

Edit. Ow wow, Hoth Leia is glorious!

She looks pretty good!

HELL YES. ESB Leia is best Leia. Will preorder day one.

BBTS alerted me they're getting Dragonzord in 10 days. Finally.

The one that's like three years old that stayed on shelves forever? LiK pls

Regrets.

 

[WolfStark]

I didn't liked the look of Emma Watson, I think it was okay but it didn't screamed "this is Emma Watson!" to me. Now with Leia.. flawless. This is The Empire Strikes Back Leia. Really well done and usually the figures look better in the hand as they do in these promo shots, so she should be perfect when she is released. Damn I wish I had the money for her.

I agree with some people on Facebook though, Bespin hair and E-11 blaster would make her an incredible release.

 

[KoruptData]

Guess this is the only one they are announcing today. I was hoping on seeing RotJ Luke.

Hey man. I missed out on it too. Glad to be getting this though.

 

[LiK]

Rerelease might be better quality too with the improved manufacturing tech, I hope.

[HammerOfThor]

Motherfucker, just checked tracking for an order from TFSource for the Shedder figure and it said it was delivered but I never got it. This is the 3rd time FedEx has misdelivered my packages int he past few weeks. WTF. I just emailed TFSource about it.

Shouldn't you contact FedEx? It seems like their fault, not TFSource's.

 

[LiK]

nm again

 

[HammerOfThor]

I contacted FedEx too but TFSource needs to file the claim too.

I'm going to file a complaint once I gather all the orders they've been fucking up lately. Whoever the driver is, he's just delivering to the wrong place.

OH I didn't know both parties had to file a claim. That really sucks

Yeah, I've had a couple bad drivers, one drive left a bunch of boxes just outside of being underneath my awning on a rainy day. Like, he had to go out of his way to do this...


On the plus side, my mailman is awesome and will drop stuff off at my parent's house if I"m not home since they live around the block. I've never had to run to the post office to pick anything up.

Oops, forget what I said. Seems I was looking at the wrong order. It was actually still in my Stack. But FedEx did screw up 2 other packages in the past 2 weeks so I was paranoid. We had to get our stuff redelivered.

But yea, you should always contact both the retailer and carrier to make sure they get the ball rolling with tracking down the package. I ordered soemthing for my dad and the retailer decided to check what happened themselves and they found out it was indeed delivered to the wrong place and they resent it to us.

 

[davidwhangchoi]

what's that?



Regrets.

the awesome Megazord

 

[LiK]

the awesome Megazord

You mean the same line as Dragonzord or that premium one? I'm gonna pass.

 

[Got]

After seeing GotG Vol 2 Baby Groot Hot Toys is a must.

 

[NEO0MJ]

I think he meant the premium one. And I'm surprised you're not picking it up. Curious to know why.

i'm not into power rangers but i'm going to pick it up bc the Voltron one GX-71 is so freakin amazing. i think it's going to be the best and really hot.

check out the GX-71 quality

Megazord was never my jam. He was cool but I don't love his design like I do with Dragonzord.

Rad, preordered from BBTS.

 

[NEO0MJ]

I'm shocked, shocked I say! Dragonzord is super cool, no doubt about that, but I feel he's incomplete without the Megazord at his side. This still gets me hyped.

 

[HammerOfThor]

I'm going to Acen in a couple weeks in Chicago, I'm really hoping the BlueFin booth has the Chogokin Megazord(will it be released?) and Voltron. My wallet will cry because I also want just about all of the Figure-Rise kits.

thx!

Hey actionGAF,

i finished rearranging my display table, it used to be gundams until last night:

i cleaned up and converted it into a VF-1 display table =)

 

[TAJ]

I ordered Mezco's Mirror Mirror Spock and BS 40th anniversary Leia.
Came with a free Hitchkiker's Guide towel.

 

[SuperSah]

It's so much bullshit paying £££ for EMS delivery and having it get stuck forever in customs.

What am I paying for?!!!!

 

[Boke1879]

put in a Preorder for ESB Leia at BBTS. Will be my first Hot Toy, but I love this version of the character.

Was also looking up videos on youtube and ran into the Chogokin Voltron. Looks sooooo good.

That's one of the main reasons I don't spring for it.

Yeah, it's pretty. It's also small and goes for close to $500 shipped now.

 

[Yarbskoo]

Damn Leia looks good. Too bad I could never bring myself to pay more than $100 for a figure.

 

[NEO0MJ]

Yeah, it's pretty. It's also small and goes for close to $500 shipped now.

At almost 1 foot tall it's actually pretty tall. Don't forget that it's full of die-cast metal and has plenty of accessories.
I heard that there will be a reissue coming soon so those that missed out on it and want it should wait.

I have GX 71. Amazing quality and articulation. I think I like it better than the Masterpiece Toynami one.

With that said, I preordered GX 72 ..Also I heard it's marketed as the Japanese original Power rangers(Zyuranger) instead of US.

 

[Data West]

Want splatoon and arms fihuarts


No menos pls

 

[NEO0MJ]

That's just for marketing. In Japan it will be marketed as the Zyuranger Daizyuzin while in the rest of the world it will be marketed as the MMPR Megazord. Each version even has its own box art.

What version box art BBTS will get?

 

[NEO0MJ]

What version box art BBTS will get?

The one for the west. I think AmiAmi and HLJ are the only places that will have the Japanese box. Not sure where the other online stores will get their stock from.
While my preorder was from AmiAmi I wish I could get the MMPR box instead.

 

[Haloid1177]

I preordered the GX-72 as well. Too worried about missing it like I am with all MMPR related items.

Ah nice. But in terms of technicality, GX 72 is Zyuranger Daizyuzin anyway but sold as Megazord for marketing purposes, no?

 

[NEO0MJ]

First review I've seen for GX-72.

Ah nice. But in terms of technicality, GX 72 is Zyuranger Daizyuzin anyway but sold as Megazord for marketing purposes, no?

Yep, exact same toy. No need to worry about differences between the Japanese and Western release, unlike with Masterpiece Transformers where there are often differences.
Or at least, I think so. For those in the US, has Bluefin ever modified a western release or do they at worst just put them in different boxes sometimes?

 

[GAMEPROFF]

That's just for marketing. In Japan it will be marketed as the Zyuranger Daizyuzin while in the rest of the world it will be marketed as the MMPR Megazord. Each version even has its own box art.

Is there a Megazord that is consisting of seperate Zords and that can be puzzeled together?

 

[NEO0MJ]

What do you mean, exactly? I don't quite understand what you just posted.

 

[Haloid1177]

Is there a Megazord that is consisting of seperate Zords and that can be puzzeled together?

You mean one that transforms and combines? The GX-72 does that.

 

[Boke1879]

I preordered the GX-72 as well. Too worried about missing it like I am with all MMPR related items.

Yea I'm not trying to miss out out on anything MMPR related I may want from now on.

I wonder when the GX-72 will release from BBTS? This month I'd assume.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

That's just for marketing. In Japan it will be marketed as the Zyuranger Daizyuzin while in the rest of the world it will be marketed as the MMPR Megazord. Each version even has its own box art.

Would've been nice to have a reversible cover if possible but oh well.

Man oh man! I would love to get a hold of this.
But its too expensive. =(

 

[Shadow Ranger]

If one were to sell their SHF Star Wars stuff currently (as a set, not complete but a good selection nonetheless, RoJ Luke, Maul, Biker, Black Trooper and others), would anyone here be interested? Curious...

 

[NEO0MJ]

Would've been nice to have a reversible cover if possible but oh well.

How would that even work? This isn't like with DVD cases where the art is printed on paper and then inserted inside a slip cover.

Man oh man! I would love to get a hold of this.
But its too expensive. =(

Yeah, it's certainly not cheap. Still, that's what the Legacy version is for. You just have to wait it to come back in stock.
