RocketToys Naruto Shippuuden 1/6 Scale Figures

[SparrowClay]

Hoping OSK or GianToy gets some extra stock. Missed out on PO for Madara and Itachi but I have one for Kakashi.

Would like to have all 3 in the collection to go with Threezero's OG Naruto and Sasuke.

I tried reach out to Kit couple days ago about the Sengoku but seem to be no luck and no response, could be because of Chinese New Year

Finger cross hopefully they deliver, that suck I'm sure those custom taxes gonna hurt once it arrives, my shipping were about $100 some with Dhl, but I don't think the US get custom tax tho, I could be wrong I bought some stuff overseas but don't think I get hit one.

Yeah it could be, you would think they will have the Naruto line, but I also never seen rocket toys advertised, maybe that why? And not sure how popular 1/6 scale is in Japan

Share your experiences then, when the time comes! Im curious about taht
I got often hit by taxes. When I bought many years ago HT Biohazard figures oder my HT Davy Jones (which they wanted to keep, since they were to dumb to check the license, luckily I got him though)
I always had the feeling that they pick out my stuff especially with all the shipments lol

I dont know either. Im guessing resin statues are more popular. Although there a some jp. collectors on youtube as well. But a fews doenst mean anything.

I hope so too. I have Kakashi on tns pre-ordered and heard some stuff about them 0.0
Therefore, I hope he will pop up on other retailers. Best for me would be gundamit, I have them all pre-ordered there except for Kakashi. Okay Kit would be here also top.

BTW.. GD has Madara now named [Coming Soon]. The Basara ones are still marked as pre-order :O

for some reason I thought they all came out already beside itachi and kakashi. I think I saw some review on both Sengoku and Madara. I know kit has gotten 50% of the Sengoku invoice but not sure about Madara.

 

[Mad Moxxi]

Yup! Thats what I thought as well!
Yukimura und Masamune were their first ones. Madara now the third (who was actually their last from the Naruto ones at first)
Maybe there was a logistic problem. Dunno.. :O

 

[KerotanFrog]

Oh mannnnnn.. all the Akatsuki..? I'm down. I'll buy every release they put out. I'm so excited for Madara to come in!

 

[Mazukou]

I wonder when will we get new updates for itachi and kakashi? I'm really excited to see how they turned out after seeing how madara was previewed

 

[plasmavapor]

Not sure if anyone posted this but here’s an unboxing video.

Hey Moxxi did you receive the Rocket toys Sengoku from Gundamnit yet? And also Shadow Ranger did you receive your as well from TW?

Nope :O
They havent listed them as "Coming Soon" like Madara. Maybe in the next few days they update it.

Hmm I wonder what store has ship out besides onesixthkit. I was just browsing around and saw TW put up a new banner on rocket toys, list as official distributor, I'm wonder if ranger got his yet

 

[Mad Moxxi]

I guess after the holidays they need their time to sort and send orders out. Or they got huge loads of items which they have to sort and register in their system.
Probably this week will be no notification of shipping and I guess it will be Madara first.

What about your basara order?

 

[SparrowClay]

I'm surprised Madara still processing, seeing many video online thought is out by now. I'm still waiting for Mecha to ship it out. Is been 8 days already. I messaged them last week they pretty much just said they still processing old order wait an another 5 days? They said if I don't heard anything by the 13 days message them again. So we will see

 

[Mad Moxxi]

They posted something about "issues" with Madara

Surely a translation would be nice :O
Some things seem to understandable thanks to the pictures.

HLJ changed again their release date. It's now February. Since they are Japan based, I guess they will ship as well in February :O

 

[Mazukou]

[Mad Moxxi]

Sorry
changed it

 

[KerotanFrog]

He's beautiful..
Eagerly anticipating!

A few issues but the focus is on 1, which is the tightness of the eyes due to the additional UV paint. They admitted that the eyes are tighter to rotate because of current low temperature, which is something they did not detect when the figure is in development during other seasons.

They advise heating the eye joints when you first get it and to do it from the joint area, not the front because of the risk of ruining the paint. Basically if you find that the eyes are harder to rotate, you can heat up the eyes with a hair dryer for about 5 - 10 seconds. If this doesn't work, you can use something like a plier for additional leverage.

Same goes for the wrist joints.

If the armor detaches, you can bunch up the underlying clothes to get a better attachment to the armor.

The last point is about adjusting the angles of the joint if you want a more dynamic pose.

Eh, standard 1/6 issues, nothing we haven’t dealt with before and have simple solutions for.

But I appreciate the time they took to address them.

My Masamune from TW shipped and is now held in customs according to the tracking. That was yesterday, so either I need to pay a charge when I get the letter, or it'll be released soon. Hopefully the latter...

My bababobo Yukimura order was cancelled because...they miscalculated stock, so need to find a place for that now.

Edit: Masamune is in the UK for sure, local tracking also shows it. I think I need to pay customs... it says "Revised charges" then says "released". God, I _hate_ how BS VAT/Customs is. "Value". To freakin' _who_?!
