Same, just got the shipping email. Finally.
I should buy a Dragonzord.
Still in stock at BBTS
I probably will, but I wanna wait to hear how you guys like it first.
Yeah but they got nothing on the Marvel Select boxes!

It's not a new release, everyone in here was just slacking. It's a great figure.
I'm just pissed I wasn't active in figure collecting years ago. I really want those Figuarts of the original rangers lol.
Okay. Will supplies dry up fast? If so maybe I'll get in before it happens.

The Legacy rereleases seem to stick around for a while but the Dragon Dagger preorders sold out so I don't have a fucking clue.
I've been waiting over two years for this reissue.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
I've never seen one of those. Wow if true.
I'm pretty sure the DragonZord is popular so better safe than sorry. I would prefer the Tigerzord first but that one looks to have shot up on the secondary market.
Yeah they're gigantic, but you're right too the Mezco boxes seem larger than they need to be. A lot of wasted space.
I also think they're kinda bland in design, but that's just me.
Well the 25th anniversary is happening next year I believe. I would hope they re-release the Legacy Megazord, Tigerzord, etc.
Legacy Shogun megazord would be dope.
Oh Messi...
In for along 3. Love Artgerms designs and art and love all 3 characters.

Ordering this Mezco figure and BS Leia at the same time was maybe not the best idea.
The near-supernatural level of craftsmanship in the Mezco soft goods is making Hasbro's effort bum me out.
On the plus side the redone Leia head is surprisingly decent.

She is by far my favorite Nendoroid. I have both Links, and Kirby.

Getting her in a good pose with the bow and arrow was a bit of a pain, but otherwise a nice figure. If you like Nendos then you can't go wrong with her.

I don't own her but I've seen her in person. She's super cute.

FIGMA PIT
F I G M A P I T
I FINALLY got him! Found a good deal on a preowned one. It even has the special AR cards! Freaking amazing figure. With Figuarts Charizard, I only now need Dark Pit to complete my Missing Smash Trio! Slowly but surely, dreams do come true!
Mmmmmm.

$100 Figma doesn't seem like a good deal...

She's good and she comes with the Master Sword and Shield for Link.

why does man who knows how long I've wanted Pit and Dark Pit judge my dream purchases after I provide support and friendship
He's next! Pit, Dark Pit, and Charizard were my three major Smash figure misses, so I need to plan for him next.

100$ for a Figma? that's minor league compared to collecting Berserk Figma figures

Because this is what our friendship is built on. Your always positive attitude and my biting cynicism. It's like poetry.

Really wish they'd reissue those, I'm not paying £120+ for a Figma, and don't even get me started on the Berserker Armor. For that kind of money you may as well get the RAH or ThreeZero Guts.

Some SHF Ryu and Chun-Li pics.
Probably best to call that USPS Honolulu office of exchange.
Looks good. I like how they did the lightning kick effects for Chun.

TAJ isn't the only one who picked up NECA's Ultimate Jungle Hunter Predator!
Holy shit! I love this guy. So glad I never forked out the premium to get the older version. NECA did an amazing job capturing ol' Anytime. The articulation is exactly what NECA has been delivering with their recent Predators, which is to say it's awesome. I just wish we had gotten a pissed off unmasked head as well! Just an outstanding figure that truly deserves being called an Ultimate.

She's cute as fuck.
My only real complaints are how she can't really look in the direction she's aiming the arrow, and her hip joint is a bit too weak to support her bulky head. Neither is really a big issue though, especially if you use the stand.

Posted this elsewhere and figured I would here in case anyone wanted to give it a try. I just put some putty under chewbacca's heel and gave him a little bump. Can paint it black or whatever and it's not really noticeable(who really looks at feet haha). Left before; right after. A minor change, but it works for me

Oh god, I found a new collectable/figure money pit worse than Hot Toys...

Get into making them yourself. Reverse money pit.
I'm building a spray booth this month. Waiting on a part right now.
I'm not going down that road. Yet.

Yeah, that was part of it.
Been watching all these Tested videos(Adam Savage, etc) the last few days and im actually thinking of getting myself into this stuff.
I love my figures but man having a full suit in a glass case is really the next level.
The video about the For Honor E3 armor and that sci-fi game were the final straw.
Got tired of waiting for Mezco to make a comic Thor figure so I just decided to hunt for the best one in 1/12 scale I could find, and that seems to be the Marvel Select Mighty Thor, which has shot up to around $100 bucks secondary since it came out a couple years ago. I managed to win one on ebay for $50 new and was very happy about that.
And...he's awesome! Best thing about him is the spinning Mjolnir accessory he comes with, which was pretty much the #1 reason I decided on the figure.
He fits in pretty well with my Mezco stuff. He's teeny bit out of scale since he's a Marvel Select and Mezco's are Legends scale, but keep him slightly lowered and in the back and it works together pretty well.
