S.H. Figuarts Thread; Discuss the figure line here!

Decided that with the new section, this would be the best place to discuss and post news about the this line of figures:
Quote:
 
Before Figuarts, there was Souchaku Henshin. Souchaku Henshin was a line of articulated Kamen Rider toys that featured die cast attachable armor. Somewhere along the way, Souchaku Henshin came to the point where it was very articulated and essentially, became the flagship figures of the TV series. The attachable armor pretty much became a bonus, and was simplified greatly as time went on.

So, someone at Bandai headquarters apparently decided they couldn't get enough of this crazy articulation and decided that they had to have more. Screw the attachable armors. And that's how the Figuarts line was born. Top notch styling that remain close to their televised/silver screen counterparts (1:12 scale, these dudes stand at 15 cm tall, roughly) with articulation (35 movable points!) and durability (die cast feet with metal pins!) that never compromises.

At first, S.H. Figuarts mostly concentrated on the Kamen Rider franchise, with the odd anomaly now and then like G Gundam's Domon Kasshu and Zero. But recently, Bandai seems to be committed to branching out the line into other franchises, such as Dragonball, Pretty Cure, and soon, One Piece. The line has even spawned an Ultraman-centric spinoff called Ultra-Act, which utilizes a similar articulation model.

yeah realible.. i've ordered from them 6 times without any problems.
when checking out you'll have to choose what packaging you prefer "normal packaging" which is bubble wrap and then wrapped with green paper or in a Box.
once u place an order u'll recieve an email with an order ID # and within 24 hours you'll recieve another email with the shipping total.

Try Hobby Link Japan or AmiAmi, they usually have a lot of Kamen Rider items in stock.

Aside from Yokatta Web, these middlemen are taking preorders for SHF KR Joker...

I ordered from the first guy up there and had him go to the actual Tamashii Festival and snatch him up.

Highly recommended.

I honestly DO NOT RECOMMEND buying it from eBay now... or anywhere else if you are in a rush to get yours... I would suggest waiting until the preorder is up... but more than likely it will not start shipping till January...

If there's a Figuarts exclusive that catches your eye and you really want it... do not hesitate to buy it ASAP. It's a little too late to get Joker now at a decent price unless you go for the preorder now.

...and gonna fuse this with the S.H. Figuarts thread.

Just got this in the post abut 15 minutes ago! While the SHF line are uber poseable they still can't sit properlly on a racing bike. Knees touching chest is always a problem with action figures... except Evas! .... there's an idea ... Watch this space! ;)

Hey Wizartar,

just short suggestion since I spot both the SH Figuarts and the MG Figurise Double W, be a sport and make a comparison review for Rider-Fest ^^
only if you have time and feel like it of course ;) :D :D :D

Well that is kinda not so clever from Bandai that they did not plan ahead and made the articulation so it can drive in style on the motorbike,
without looking like a douche ...

I'd loved to do a review for Rider Fest! But am really busy with work... having to use a lot of my own free time to read up on all the new Oracle software we're trying to roll out by the end of November. I'd be lucky to get any videos done over the coming weeks! My #1 hobby is computers/technology and it's what I do for a living, plus I'm workaholic and love my job so YouTube gets pushed into only when I've free time.

There isn't enough bend in the W's hips and chest. Plus the Feet can't sit on the pegs either side of the bike, so the arms have a hard time reaching the handlebars! A little disappointed, but W still looks good just siting there chilling out.

Despite the advanced joint system on SHFs... they will never be able to sit on a bike properly as Wizartar said.
Even with the other SHF Ex bike releases (Gills Raider, Machine Tornader, BattleHopper, Acrobatter) the respective Riders can't sit on them. :(

Expect the SHF Ex Machine Hardboilder review tomorrow afternoon/evening. ><

Also curious before I ask about pre-ordering SHF Joker, how do I go about paying, is it through paypal? aswell as do I pay upfront or what?

(sorry to bother with the questions, just never bought through a middleman before)

Did you send an e-mail to: samugohan@hotmail.co.jp ?
Or PM through HJU? (The PMs aren't very reliable since the inbox gets filled quick)

You should get an email like this:

Hi,
SHF KR Joker - 5000 yen + EMS or SAL Shipping

So Total to USA by
EMS - 6500 yen
SAL - 5500 yen


/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Please payment with Paypal must be sent that way because low Paypal fee for you
Send money ---> Personal payment ---> Payment owed
Paypal mail: samugohan@hotmail.co.jp
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////////////// //////

I assume that you have to send the 1st payment as soon as you can so you can reserve the spot.

If you can't reserve it through him, you can use riderProxy: http://forums.henshinjustice.com/showthread.php?t=49712

Though you might have to pay all of it upfront...
