Anyone see the Inflame Guan Yu for release in 3rd-4th qtr 2014. The base and sword look nice.

Not bad. But I'm content with 303's Guan Yu. Still no dealers in the U.S. will take pre-orders on Soul's Huang Zhong, not really sure why. They teased about Zhuge Liang release too.

I saw Soul's Huang Zhong on ebay if anyone wants to pay $$$ for it.

nah, I'm gonna wait for 303's version. So far, I'm happy with their ROTK figures. Where did you pre-order Lu Bu from Eric? How come you still didn't get him yet?

 

[Resident Eric]

I ordered mine from timewalker. I think BBTS gets them quicker but they were not selling the bundle.

 

[playboy409]

that's weird, cause I ordered my Lu Bu from Timewalker and I got mine last week.

 

[Resident Eric]

I'm on the east coast. It takes a week to get everything from california.

I just recently found this forum. So happy to find other people out there who interested in RTK figures like me. I decided to display Lu Bu without the bib too. Here's my picture:

Btw, I thought Lu Bu was supposed to be taller than Guan Yu, but the his figure is actually shorter.

Inflames' Guan Yu looks good too, but he's out of my price range for a single figure. I wish 303 would include Lu Bu's hairess like the illustration in DW2. Inflame's Sun Gukong is the perfect piece I wish to put on Lu Bu.

 

[Resident Eric]

303's style is exactly the same as they appeared in the chinese TV series. Not too flashy

Well, I just remembered all the portrait of Lu Bu had him wearing the hairess, even the one dated back in the Qing dynasty.


This is the Lu Bu portrait that I want to achieve. LOL So I am going to custom made one for him.

 

[Resident Eric]

Received my Lu Bu yesterday.

I just put Red Hare together too, but I didn't like its color. Red Hare is famous for its bright red color but this horse's color looks too generic.

 

[Resident Eric]

Anyone preorders the inflames toys Guan Yu? After looking at the pics, I've decided to do it. I like how their beard looks like real hair. With BBTS I can cancel anytime if I change my mind. I might end up selling both of the 303 toys ones and keep this one.

Inflames Toys Guan Yu head sculpt looks more like Lu Shuming (the actor who played Guan Yu in 1994). Not sure that I am able to justified the $280 price tag, but I did preorder him with BBTS too since it doesn't cost anything to cancel later. I missed out Inflames Toys Sun Wukong 2.0 and now I regretted it.

 

[Resident Eric]

Yeah the lack of accessories made the price look even worse. Where are the U.S. dealers for O Soul's figures? I hate paying ebay prices

 

[chipgau]

Are you wanting to order O Souls Huang Zhong?

 

[playboy409]

I don't like the Inflames' head sculpt, although I do like the armor.

 

[Resident Eric]

Are you wanting to order O Souls Huang Zhong?

Maybe just the figure, not the whole set. They did tease about upcoming releases like Zhuge Liang, Zhang Fei and Lu Bu which I'm interested in seeing.

 

[chipgau]

I want to get the 5 Tiger Generals and Zhuge Liang, so I like what O Souls Huang Zhong so far. Not a fan of their horses though, they look too cartoony. Dragon's or Marx horses look better, and cheaper.

I found out about the Three Kingdoms figures made by Sea International. What do you think about them?

 

[Resident Eric]

they look bad lol
