  1. So a lot of "maybe" answers coming out of the Bluefin/Tamashii Nations panel at Anime Expo yesterday

    Nappa might get made if Broly sells well

    Tuxedo Mask might get made if the Outer Scouts sell well

    there might be a Lord Zedd figuart zero

    and Bandai Japan isn't sure if the next Power Ranger team should be Zeo, In Space or Time Force

    the next Dragon Ball Figuart after Broly is going to be Super Saiyan Vegitto

  2. found all of the 2nd Spider-Man wave, AraƱa is one of my favorite figures ever, Boomerang is pretty cool (though the two I saw had sloppy paint jobs), Toxin is creepy but extremely goofy looking with his rabbit teeth.

    Still haven't seen a Carnage or Black Cat at retail.

    Green Goblin is a pretty fun Build a Figure.

  3. Great photos, and Yellow Ranger is now up for PO with BBTS.

    Can anyone recommend a site that is likely to carry the male Yellow Ranger (Japanese version)?

    Since it's a Tamashii Web Exclusive, your best bet is preordering through a middleman service like CS Toys, or waiting until he is released and then purchasing it on Mandarake.

  4. I found Sailor Moon's second run without the extra two faces for 29.99 in this import toy store in the mall. If you don't mind missing out on the two faces it's a pretty good deal.

    Be careful there has been a ton of bootleg Sailor Moons and DBZ Figuarts hitting stores and ebay lately.

  5. I've become obsessed with obtaining at least one of every Power Rangers/Super Sentai Figuarts teams. During the last week I found ridiculously awesome deals on Red Buster ($15 shipped), the Operation Overdrive 2 pack ($50 shipped), Pink Ranger ($30 shipped), and the Super Samurai SDCC 5pack ($150 shipped). It is amazing how much better (at least in my opinion) the rangers look when they are in a team formation. BoukenRed/OO Red was my least favorite Figuart and when I purchased him it was because I had gotten a good deal and needed the Akibaranger part, now that I've gotten his teammates I'm starting to really warm up to the figure and design. Can't wait for the next three MMPR releases.

  6. If the Outer Senshi get a Japanese release you can be sure Bluefin will release them here.

    I do think that the outer Senshi will be Tamashii Exclusives in Japan and standard releases in America.

    The main reason Dragon Ball Figuarts are still being released is because of how many Americans are buying Bluefins releases.

    Bandai is starting to release older Sentai teams as two packs (Boukenger, Hurricanger) if they sell well I would imagine seeing Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune together, and Sailor Saturn and Sailor Pluto together. Or Chibiusa could be packed with either of Saturn or Pluto, or even Tuxedo Mask.

    While I would love for them to continue the line, I would be happy getting the 11 mains.
