S.H.Figuarts Appreciation Thread

Damn nice Raf! I leave for a bit and your stuff continues to multiply like rabbits LOL! Good on ya bro! Forget the haters. You have always been forthcoming in how you reached a point of being able to afford your collection (not that you needed to justify yourself in the first place) and you are super generous to members of this forum.

As for Figuarts, that Iron Man looks awesome. For some reason, I could have sworn I read about that figure already being released over a year ago but maybe I am mixing up Figuarts with another line. Either way, it looks great! For some reason I have always liked the gold on black color scheme.

One month left for Rock Lee! I wish they would speed up a bit on the Naruto releases. Gaara is not due out until November. At this rate, it will be a decade before they get everyone released....

Lol...thank you very much for the kind words my friend!

There was an Iron Man MK VI released a while back which I think you might be confusing this new one with. It was a 2013 exclusive and the colors are similar. Or maybe another brand was going to release it like you said...I'm curious now, lol! Anyways, Here's a pic of the one I'm talking about...

Yes, I wish they would release Naruto, Marvel and DBZ figures more often than they do now...I hate waiting so long.

A MUST HAVE for me.

Wonder if these are limited like the Mexico Goku.

RolandofGilead · 04-11-2017, 11:06 AM

I just picked up Hot Toys Antman to go with my Figuarts Civil War display. He should be here by the end of the week.

Yes, that's the way to go! I kept the Legends BAF one for now but I will get the Hot Toys one eventually.

3233rafael · 04-14-2017, 02:53 AM

Looks pretty cool!

This is my mantra brother.

P.S. Hail to the king!!!! I've had a run in with your very same hater as well. Total douche-cock. Raf is my favourite Arker of ALL time and the only one I would consider "family" on here. We don't collect the same things anymore and don't visit each other's threads often but he knows I will ALWAYS have his back!!!

Hey Raf, do you know if the Figma Deadpool pre-orders are open yet? I keep prowling on Amiami and can't find it yet.

I know it was scheduled for 2017, but that's all the info I have unfortunately...soon I hope.

Kirathis · 04-15-2017, 09:41 AM

Hrm, I passed on the Amecomi Deadpool but if the Figma one turns out as well as that model pic makes it look like it will then I will have to add that to my collection.

After seeing all of the DBZ exclusives in here I am SO GLAD I do not care about the DBZ Figuarts. That would get expensive fast. I will just live vicariously through Raf LOL!

Lol, but you're right...so many DBZ exclusives that it's getting crazy expensive.

Because those guys bought the Japanese release which came out in January while you purchased yours from Bluefin?

Ohhhh ok. Thanks for the info. This is my first Sh Figuarts so I am very new to this import stuff. Didnt even know 2 different companies distributed the figures.

Yup, Bandai does it themselves in Japan and for some western countries Bluefin gets access to their stuff and distributes it for them.

It just means that it will take a little bit longer until Bluefin has all the stock and starts shipping it out, that's all.

I hope you enjoy your first Figuart, I think you will
