Triad's Awesome Champloo figures in!!!!

[samueljd]

Does anyone know the best place to order these figures?

 

[DeadLeaves]

I just went straight to the Triad Store, but you can probably find them a few bucks cheaper elsewhere. Haven't bothered looking since I had the pre-order in for a while.

Check out this link, it has some really good out of box pictures and

Sweet, you should post some pictures of the Dio as you
go or when you finish it. I'm sure many would want to see it.

Finally got my figures yesterday!!! Jin's foot was off, but the guy at Triad said that was common because of the very strong magnets in the feet... they attract each other apparently and one can come off! He said they were just hot glued on, so just push it back on or glue it again, so not a big deal I guess. I haven't had time to open them, but will get them out this weekend, but so far, they look fantastic!!!

.......does this mean I have to wait another 2 years to see fuu?...

* I'd say it's a good bet that it won't be out until Nov-Dec 2010.
On their forum, they're talking about it like it's been in the works
for a little while now. So I'd think some of that 18 months has
already past...

Here is something I posted in the other thread all the way back in Oct 2008!!!

Hi Lonnie!

Of course! We are big Champloo fans! Fuu is still in the works. I know the guys have been working on this for some time so she’s definitely on the way...

And of course, we've had this image since Nov 2008...

...so maybe she isn't that far off after all... at least we can hope!

Just thought I'd bump this one up due to the fact I got my shipping notice for the pair yesterday, should be in by mid next week. I'll post some pics straight outa the box.

Sorry bout the poor quality pictures, the figs are awesome but Mugens sheath is a _____ to attach!

 

[plasmid303]

Thanks for the photos. There doesn't seem to many of these guys up right now.

Yeah, I reckon. We need more pics!

Thanks MateriaHunter!

 

[MateriaHunter]

Bit better quality picture.

 

[samueljd]

Nice! The figures look like they have very good articulation.

Bit better quality picture.

Are those the stands that came with the figures?

 

[MateriaHunter]

Nope, they're my own, they don't cone with one.

 

[samueljd]

For $100+ they should have come with some kind of stands.

 

[MateriaHunter]

Tell me about it. They even have magnets in their feet ready for a Triad bullet-time stand, would of thought they could of thrown one in.

 

[jinroh75]

here are my photos. i did that review on the traid forum. they're pretty awesome. i got the extra bullet time stands and they're awesome. definitely well worth it considering they have moveable eyes and all metal weapons. stands are like $1 so i ain't trippin.

I should have worded it better, that wasn't really my point. I don't recall any stands with any Triad figures ever. So I was thinking if
those stands in your picture came with the figures, it would be a nice bonus.

I see Triad heading more towards the Enterbay type figures for less money. At least they're not Medicom and just over charge you
for the figure to cover the 3 dollar cost of their stands. And Medicom figures don't even have great bodies or moving eyes.

Plus you can still get the Champloo figures & Bullet time stands and still spend far less money than you would on 2 Enterbay or 2 Medicom figures.
And those Bullet Time stand are pretty sweet
