AFGAF is the fucking best as long as your name isn't Messi cause then you're the worst.

When they ship it... If I were to guess, between the 28th and 30th.

Will Bandai charge me now or when Wing ships? I really want that thing.

yeah it's payment upfront.
I got my SF Figurarts 3PO and R2 today. Love the sculpts and the scales are right-on with R2 being fantastic with the paint even if the accessories are lacking.
But I was hoping for at least some metal parts for some heft - if there's any SW Figuarts that would be great for it, it's the droids. I have the Disney Store metal figures and maybe I'm just spoiled, but it would have been nice to have some weight to them like the FIguarts Turtles figures that have metal legs to give them some heft and help with balance. (3P0 doesn't like to stand that well and I use quake hold to keep him up).

When I was a kid, there was a figure that I would see in the store that I wanted, but couldn't buy. At one point it went on clearance for a rock bottom price, and I ALMOST bought it at that point, but decided against it. For the last 15 years I've been kicking myself for not picking it up at the time, because it ended rocketing up in price on eBay over the years.
Well, I recently got a price alert on Amazon, because I had wishlisted it a number of years ago, and finally decided to pull the trigger.
The great thing about being an adult with money, is that you can finally buy the toys that you wanted so badly as a kid, but could never have.
For those that are unaware, this is Monev the Gale from Trigun. This figure is MASSIVE! So much so that it has an internal endoskeleton to make him sturdier.

Oh man, if I knew you were looking for one I'd have sold you mine. I have a few of the Trigun figures from tha line still sealed in their packages.

Well, I got a good deal on it, so unless I could have gotten a better one, then I think I'm okay.
As far as the Tri-Gun line is concerned, I have Vash, Wolfwood, and Gazelle.

Never picked up Gazelle. I do have Meryl, though.

Oh Christ. Iron Studios 1/4 Punisher. I'm genuinely afraid of what I might do when this goes up for pre-order.
Any recommendations on where to order Figuarts Qui-Gon? Can I improve on the BBTS price?

Probably not at the moment. Qui-Gon is an exclusive so he's already sold out at the Japanese shops. I mean, even cdJapan sold out.

They're supposed to be out on Friday, September 1st (Force Friday II). I saw these at Walmart yesterday, though.
I'm waiting on the Black Series figures myself. My brothers and I are gonna try and get a few. Hera and Thrawn should also be available alongside the Last Jedi ones on Friday.

Hey david, what is the extra piece that I see orderable for Seven Sword? Worth it at all?
davidwhangchoi
Member
Yeah that's the extra gn sword gun you can attach to the gn gun it comes with. I have 3 on order (1 for each 7S) let me know if you want the additional gn sword and l'll give it to you less than the cost on p bandai America.
It's going for 40 plus 33 shipping on the site.
I'll sell it for 35 plus 3 bucks shipping.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Is Walmart done with Marvel Legends?
The last couple stores I went to had no shelf space set aside for them except in the clearance section.
Thor: Ragnarok wave is $10. All other waves are $9.

Can we like get a mod in here to ban him? Like for his own safety if he wants to leave that bad but keeps coming back that's the sign of a problem.

You should realize how long it takes packages to get from Asia or the USA to me. We will probably have seen Suicide Squad 2 and Joker & Harley before I get it.
They told me it was shipping from their Asian warehouse as it was in stock there which is odddddd.
