I think it's around 3:00 am Eastern time in the US.

Man, the Ahsoka Anakin looks great. I don't do SW at that scale, but if I had, oh boy.

 

[miles]

^^^??? Anakin looks like Shaggy in the face.

 

[Flintty]

Damn, I thought this line was dead!

 

[meanstreak]

got Ani, Han and Chewie

I know they reissued Luke from ANH but he had no improvements... hopefully another OT Luke comes out soon. And another Leia.

It is, these are just quick easy redos that pad Q4 profits

If anyone was considering getting the new hope vader they rereleased, don't. They completely botched it by painting the armor and shoulders like empire, and the gloves/boots are glossy black

Really? Can't see the shoulder bells in all the promo photo's. And I never really noticed the shin armor is glossy black. The only reason I didn't order this one is it basically looked the same as the OWK without the optional BD head and chest. And the tunic over the shoulder armor.

I have every version they've made of Vader up till this one (all still boxed and new). I guess they couldn't bother to do a slight paint re deco. Was still thinking of getting this, but not sure there's a reason too now. I'd still probably get one if I find him cheap. Just to have them all.

Yeah, it's totally the empire armor and shoulder bells. Glossy armor with glossy, plain black bells plus the other parts. Really weird

Edit: Here's a pic. I had taken him apart to mess with a mod. Also noticed that his shoulder bell won't attach on one side...

Quick toss together of the original release with this one's robe and head sculpt(had to swap the neck pieces). I think the cape was a black series one. The one that it came with is even worse lol. Overall it doesn't look too bad with the original parts. The head sculpt is also inaccurate having the neck painted just black. Rerelease stormtrooper is next to and he's pretty good

ANH Obi-Wan with softgoods robe. (preorder Nov.18)

That appears to be a new head for ep3 obi

If one wants to purchase SW Figuarts in Europe, what's the best way to do that? I realised today that they are, unlike DB Figuarts, not easy to acquire.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Nippon Yassan is where I go. Good pricing.

When was the last time you ordered from them? Looks like they shut down in 2021 or so and took a bunch of people's money as they went.

Oh dear, I'd definitely want to avoid that.
The place with best prices in JP I've seen so far seems to be Yoyakunow.
