Man, did fucking Belial himself own this figure?
What did you even do with him?
>>
>>5587834
Man, I don't know UA comes with a lot of effects, considering myself to get one. What is the one with the most accessory/effects?
>>
>>5588419
Ultra-act Zero Renewal has the most effect parts, given that he was one of the pricier releases. Keep in mind that the flasher effect (with the Sluggers) are a first release bonus, and wouldn't be included if he ever got a reissue. And unfortunately, he's pretty pricey right now.

My favourite release would be Leo Renewal. Solid figure, great effect and accessories for him, especially the umbrella. He is also expensive on the aftermarket.

Me too, but with Dyna. That's the only Ultra-act (excluding some Kaijus) I want that I've yet to get.

Also some characters Bandai hasn't made yet, but I don't know when/if they'll ever get to them. I hope we'll get at least one new release this year (apart from Phoenix Brave and the two Manga releases)

Ultra Act was sort of hidden treasure line, with a lot of really great figures. Unfortunately they were never that popular, so you could get a lot of them fairly cheap. Now that the line is effectively dead and being redone as Figuarts, the older figures are rocking up in price.

Ultraman Belial is one of My favorite figures of all My collection despite being one of the very first Ultra Acts. I feel he holds up pretty well. Although I wouldn't say no to a renewal version.
>>
>>5588563
>Unfortunately they were never that popular
Except some figures have been released 3-4 times. The only reason why you could get a lot of them cheap is because they've been constantly reissued, or they're the older who-gives-a-shit figures like Kyrieloid.
>Now that the line is effectively dead and being redone as Figuarts
Nothing's been confirmed.
>the older figures are rocking up in price.
The expensive Ultra-acts have been pricey well before the Figuarts shit has been announced, don't make stuff up.

Any word on why they they decided to start making ultraman under the figuarts line? I can't imagine putting them under figuarts instead of ultra-act would increase sales at all.

Yeah, that's why Ultraman is a distant third fiddle in toku. Or why people are still surprised whenever someone shows off an Ultra Act.
>Nothing's been confirmed.
Some with those Super Sentai figuarts, amirite?
>don't make stuff up
Check sold listing in Mandarake, some of those prices for Ultra Acts are steals compared to what they are now.
>>
>>5588570
Because Figuarts sells more. SHF gets more name recognition than D-Arts or Ultra Act.
>>
>>5588572
If Ultra-act was such an unpopular line as you said, then why would Bandai be reissuing most of their releases once a year?
>Or why people are still surprised whenever someone shows off an Ultra Act.
You do realize the main market for these products are in Japan and China/HK, right?
>Some with those Super Sentai figuarts, amirite?
When Ultra-act gets no releases whatsoever in more than a year, you're free to say that. It's too soon to make up assumptions as fact.
>heck sold listing in Mandarake, some of those prices for Ultra Acts are steals compared to what they are now.

There's one on Mandy going for nearly $200 dollerydoos... i'm honestly considering it really, really hard.

Does that figure have any actual flaws? Would it be very noticeably smaller or strange looking next to the new Zero?
>>
>>5588582
You can get Kaiser Belial for about half that price, don't bother. He's not even worth 10k as a figure, honestly.
Shitty opaque timer, sculpt is showing its age, fingers aren't fully articulated. Terms of size, there should be little problems.

When was the last time they did a reissue?

Sure. And between Ultraman Max to Ultraman Ginga S Ultraman was barely scrapping by. They had to do the doll gimmick just to become popular again. And we haven't seen an Ultra Act of anything newer than Ginga, despite two popular shows after the low bar of Ginga.
>When Ultra-act gets no releases whatsoever in more than a year, you're free to say that. It's too soon to make up assumptions as fact.
2011 had 19 UA releases, only 3 of them were website exclusives. 2015-16 had 13 releases, all but the Figuarts crossover manga Ultraman were website exclusive. While not quit the hyperbole of being a dead line, it's still an indication that UA are not selling well in general and have to be online only expensive buys.

Belial's mantle is sexy, and he does have a scar over his eye that he got at the end of the first movie which is cool. Belial has since healed that scar though. In general, I decided with going with the original and picking up the vinyl Kaiser Belial for his mantle. The original also has articulated finger hands and effect parts for his staff.

>>5588605
>When was the last time they did a reissue?
This March, Ultraseven Renewal. Get it together, man...
>Sure. And between Ultraman Max...
We are talking about the Ultra-act line, not Ultraman as a whole. The West's reception of the Ultra-act line is irrelevant because it is not the main demographic of the line, that was the point.
>And we haven't seen an Ultra Act of anything newer than Ginga
But we still got new Ultra-act releases. Don't know why Victory wasn't made while we got guys like Tsurugi Knight or Kamila, though.
>despite two popular shows after the low bar of Ginga.
Ginga S didn't do as well as Ginga in terms of sales, surprisingly. And Ultraman X isn't even a year old.
>it's still an indication that UA are not selling well in general and have to be online only expensive buys.
That's a given and something accepted long ago. Doesn't mean the line is canned and cannot continue via exclusives.
Hell, look at Pre-cure or Garo. Those releases are practically all exclusives, yet figures are still being made. And in the case of Garo, you have both the Figuarts and Makai Kadou line running, albeit slowly. Not to mention that, aside from Cosmos, the Ultra-act line has went through most of its selection that would sell decently.

I don't know what you're trying to prove as you seem to be moving the goalposts a bit, but the main point was that Ultra-act is not an unpopular line given all its total releases/reissues, like you've previously stated. Otherwise we wouldn't have been seeing constant reissues or several (albeit slow) releases a year.

So we pretty much agree on the same thing, I just went into hyperbole about it, since it's showing the same decline pattern that other -arts series have gone.
>>
>>5588631
>So we pretty much agree on the same thing
No, because what started this entire discussion was you stating that the line was never that popular. I was arguing against that. The reason why the line has been sparse in releases and mainly exclusive is because Bandai has pretty much went through most of their possible releases, and why a lot of Ultra-acts are cheap is because they're either very unpopular to begin with, or they've been reissued a few times.
>I just went into hyperbole about it
Nah, it was less hyperbole and more like spouting stupid shit for the most part.

>Still, what Mandarake listings were you even talking about?

When I first got into UA, most listings on Mandarake were about 2000-3000 yen, I got pic related for 1500 yen. Now out of the 75 or so current listings on Mandarake, only about 12 or so are under 4000 yen. I got Alien Magma for 2500 yen, right now it's 5500 yen. The only really expensive one was Zoffy. Belial is also an example, he used to be 2000 yen, 4000 for Kaiser, and now he's 11000-14000 yen. UA used to be even cheaper to collect than KR Figuarts, but KR has been stable in most of the ones I've looked at whereas UA has gone up in price.
>>
>>5588638
That has absolutely nothing to do with the Figuarts line like you've brought up earlier.
>..Now that the line is effectively dead and being redone as Figuarts, the older figures are rocking up in price.
They've been going up well before TN2015 because they're older and had no reissues. Older figures (that have no alternatives and aren't completely pieces of shit, and still have some slight demand) will start to do that, yeah.

You are comparing an aftermarket from long ago to today's aftermarket, which doesn't make sense. For example, Belial hasn't been near ~2k on Mandarake since God knows when.
>UA used to be even cheaper to collect than KR Figuarts
They were around the same price as KR Figuarts at the time, actually. Just that the aftermarket was different, given how shit the 1.0 stuff tended to be and no body really wanted to buy them like the 2.0 stuff.

I got a set of Novus polishes today and actually managed to remove the scratch from my Eyecon Driver G, so thanks to the anon who steered me in the right direction.

I took the Driver apart to isolate the plastic lens though, and Jesus FUCK. I swear a madman designed this thing. There's like four layers of plastic shells and like 30 screws (some hidden behind strange spring mechanisms) that you have to get through just to reach the ones attaching the front cover.

Probably not. Scuffs and cracks like that happen all the time with those display figures because they're shipped around from show to show. They're also usually painted different than the actual finished product.

Speaking of molded creases, I can't wait for Black's reissue. Damn glad I held off though. I was so close to just biting the bullet and paying aftermarket prices for him.
>>
>>5589305
Assuming the line is just on a hiatus (like what happened with S.H. Monsterarts before), I don't see why Victory wouldn't be made. He's one of the only few Ultramen Bandai can even make that isn't a form change and would sell decently.

I would love to see a Faust/Dark Mephisto two-pack as well. Seems like Nexus stuff sells well looking at the aftermarkets of the four released.

The first Figuarts is very similar to the Souchaku Henshin. The new one is more accurate mold-wise.
>>
>>5590027

Black, RX, and Shadow Moon have "Renewals."

SHFSS (Kabuto, Hibiki, Kuuga, Agito, Decade) is slightly different. The line is remolds of old figures, yes, but they all use a specific system of joints and are intended to 1:1 emulate the proportions of Seiji Takaiwa (or whoever was Kuuga and Hibiki's suit actors) in the suit. Also Hibiki is the only one that isn't a new version of an old figure, but is still considered SHFSS because it uses the same process.
>>
>>5590383
>intended to 1:1 emulate the proportions of Seiji Takaiwa
They like to claim that but it's not really true. They're all still very stylized.

ah man these legs. they were pretty interesting in concept but flawed in execution. joints arrived loose, which is fixable, but it's really awkward trying to find good poses with digitigrade legs. i don't think this piece will make for good displays.

if you were curious, the "thigh" piece is hollowed out so that the...1st foreleg section to compact inside it for more coiled up pouncing poses. the ... 2nd foreleg? can go almost straight but because the joints on mine are loose it won't stand.

i'm not very creative with poses, but this sort of looks lazy and cat like.

i personally prefer the black emblems but i can see why other people don't like that look. i think something happened with the jelly emblem pieces, and they don't fit right in the chest. maybe they got slightly deformed in the heat.

closing out this semi-photo review, here's the take away. the base figure is great and gives off the impression of a fast, lightly armored recon unit, which is its purpose. the beast head and arms are excellent, but the beast legs don't quite accomplish what they set out to do. i have three other OOO's SICs, Sagozo, Shauta, and Tajadol (Lost Blaze). how does latoratah stack up?

i'm gonna put it second or third behind sagozo. the paint and sculpting look awesome and i'm really happy with my purchase. if you like the design i'd say pick one up.
>>
>>5593951
Looks more like a sexy pin-up pose if anything.

Glad you like him. I'd love to collect the line, but I don't think I like OOO (as a series and a Rider) enough. Also the fact that Gatakiriba is the most expensive SIC on the market today...
>>
>>5593955
to be honest, i've watched more sentai than rider and picked up the OOO figures because they look like an animal sentai.

haha yeah, what's with that? i haven't seen gatakiriba for lower than 14,000 JPY which is insane. he's my current holy grail, just to complete the "team". do SICs ever get reissues?
>>
>>5593963
Kamen Rider OOO is pretty fun, I'd recommend it. Fantastic OST too.

SICs rarely ever get reissues, but that's because they don't need 'em. Problem is, Gatakiriba is an exclusive SIC. Unless they're willing to change the release a bit, they won't ever be reissuing him.
Why Gatakiriba is expensive, most likely because not enough people bought him to sell him off later or whatever. The previous releases (before Bandai went all exclusive) hit the sale bins, so people didn't expect the demand for Gatakiriba.

hmm okay, thanks for the info. my completionist autism might win out over my bank account in the end.

>Gatakiriba is the most expensive SIC on the market today...
Not quite. Gatakiriba is tied with a few figures like Emperor Kiva and a golden Garo character, but SIC is bigger than that.

There are multiple character packs, like Hibiki and Showa Riders that outpace them. There are limited edition releases, like Amazing Mighty Kuuga. And there are huge Hero Saga pieces like the shocker lab table or creation king's throne.

no chance. ONE fig costs that much these days.
>>
>>5595566
Definitely not. More like 5-5.5k on average nowadays.
>>
>>5595538
no problem! glad someone found it useful. yeah, if they had done something awesome with the legs, it really would have elevated the figure, just like shauta's monstrous tentacles. unfortunately, they give him a really bottomheavy figure, like he has a huge ass or something

you say you have all the tv forms, how is gatakiriba? is he worth the current 14000 jpy asking price?
>>
>>5595783
Gatakiriba looks gorgeous, but there's no way I can see him being worth 14k unless Gatakiriba's your husbando (and specifically it has to be that form).

Also the superior head being included with...Sagozo?
>>
>>5595787
weird how they did that. guess someone at bandai was like

"fuck we forgot to include the cool head"

"ah just send it out with the next model"

"the monkey thing"

"it's fine. it's fine. totally fine."

i like the design, but maybe not for that price.
>>
>>5595793
What's worse was that Gatakiriba had already gone up a lot when Bandai first revealed the new head that was coming with Sagozo. Just felt like they were adding salt in the wounds.

Gatakiriba is definitely a sexy beast, but honestly I wouldn't say he's worth 14000JPY. I'm pretty sure he has the fewest accessories out of all of the SIC OOOs, and there's nothing that inherently makes him better, but he was exclusive, and I imagine it being a bug form makes it more popular, so idk

What is the best SHFSS ? Why is Kuuga Mighty form so overpriced everywhere ? Is it because the popularity or the figure is really that good ?
>>
>>5598367
Both. Kuuga is very popular and the figure is very solid.

Hibiki is almost perfect as well (only issues with him is that he lacks some potential accessories). He can be found below MSRP because, unlike Kuuga, he's from an unpopular series.
>>
>>5598367
Honestly Kuuga's not that great. Very few hands and some weird choices in the engineering. Just sold well cause he's popular.
>>
>>5598471
>weird choices in engineering
Really aside from the ring of Grongi text lining the bottom of the chest piece being its own separate piece the engineering is standard stuff and works really well. I don't know what else you would want from Kuuga in that form.

Kuuga is overpriced becauee he is popular though, I agree.
>>
>>5598834
Not a fan of the useless forearm swivels and the legs that can't go high enough to properly ride either of the two bikes they've released for him.
>>
>>5599577
I don't think that forearm "swivel" is meant to be a point of articulation. That is just basically a design choice in which the arm brace is manufactured as a separate piece instead of sculpted into the arm.

Saves the braces from having grooves sculpted into them to make space for the elbow joint.
>>
>>5599696
It's very definitely a design choice, since the peg could've just been square. As is it just adds a hassle to posing him, since at least on mine they're looser than his wrists.
>>
>>5598385
>>5598471
Thanks for the reply, I just got my SHFSS Decade a couple days ago.

And since I love it very much, I decided to take the other SHFSS. While I already got Agito and Hibiki with sale price, I had to held back to take Kuuga since he is overpriced and look decent too me.

Looks like I'm going to prioritize over Kabuto now since he is just been reissued, how good is he ?
>>
>>5600700
Kabuto is the weakest SHFSS. Bad handpeg design that's too secure, fiddly chest.

If you want Kuuga, you can get the upcoming Rising Mighty.

Nah, Rider SHFs will never be kill. The line has just slowed down, which given how poorly the Ghost line has managed to gain any traction (General releases taking almost a month and over in Specter's case to even come clost to having enough orders to close them), is probably a bad thing.

It would appear "Dance With Me", from the credits of Gaim Gaiden vol.2, was finally released on 3-24-16, but only as a digital single.

http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/aw/d/B01CV1HALM/

Hopefully this lack of a physical CD (and rather lackluster cover artwork) isn't yet another indicator of the fate of a 3rd Gaim Gaiden.

No, but the character poll survey included with the DVD/Blu-rays had Kouta as a character option. I was the anon who linked to the survey with instructions on how to access it (because Toei in their infinite wisdom only have the polls on their mobile site, and you have to be using a Japanese mobile browser).

I still am hoping we'll get a Live Tour for Gaiden 2 (but as the months go by I lose hope), and that'll have an announcement about the winners.

I doubt the keys will move much in price, they'll just sit there until someone buys them. It was the dumbest move for consumers but smart on Bandai to charge more while reusing the same mold to lower per piece cost.

>So what are the most realistic expectations for the figuarts event. Rider 1, Amazons, anything else?
We got the red/green hint and the most obvious answer to that one is Amazons, but you never know with Bandai. Could be Santa Damashii Ghost or some shit. I also expect either a new Shinkocchou Seihou or a date for Gattack/Diend/Daguba.
>>
Don't laugh. But this time I think Kiva might be an actual possibility, given that they've been grouping all 16 existing Heisei Rider Figuarts together on the promo poster.

But yeah, I think the Amazons Riders are a given.

It's apparent that figuarts really improved after Gaim, but is there an apparent peak in SIC? I'm more or less asking if there's totally outdated SIC that should be avoided/hope for a renewal akin to SHF Wizard

If you ask me it hasn't happened yet. But note that the improvement in figuarts also brought increases in price and far fewer accessories.

Fair enough.

I wouldnt say peak, but after SiC Decade the figures were of much better build quality. Pre-volume 51 SiC's joints were scary as fuck, so many would just crumble out of the box.

I was thinking about buying some figuarts of the riders I dont have. Most of my figuarts are from 2009-11. (I only have W, V Emotion DCD, Accel, LT W, Rider2, Meteor, Masshin Chaser, Shinken Red/Gold)

But maybe it would be wiser to wait for their SHSS?

How is the SHSS DCD vs Original DCD?

Also where can I find out about up coming SHSS?
>>
>>5615449
SHSS Decade way better.
Just lurk here and the Rider General on /m/ for news
>>
>>5615449
SHFSS Decade is significantly better. Unfortunately, he's pretty pricey right now so you'll have to wait until he's reissued.
Figuarts from Gaim and after are pretty much fine, you can buy those. Fourze himself is also good, too, as well as the Renewals (Shadowmoon, Black/RX). Feel free to buy the Showa stuff, and whatever older figures that still look good (eg. Gills).
Unfortunately, SHFSS is a very slow line (and Bandai wants to milk Kuuga's dick unfortunately) so you may be waiting a very long time for some characters you want.

For SHFSS, you can just use myfigurecollection.net (search S.H.Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou)
>>
>>5615457
yeah Fourze is about 20ish bucks on Amazon, but i hear he's off white and his proportions are off. So I dont know if the amazon one is from the first wave of Fourze lines (if they even did a re-issue of him where they fixed it)

I'll probably save up since I want Kuuga.
>>
>>5615462
The off-white and proportions are somewhat negligible unless you absolutely want him perfect, imo. He's very cheap + a lot of possible play value (each module set and effect set is 200-400y, with the exclusive set being 2500y), so he's hard to skip if you like him and/or his design.
That, and Fourze won't be getting a SHFSS/Renewal anytime soon.

Mighty Kuuga is expensive again unsurprisingly, so I'd just get Mighty Rising when he comes out.

Air mail is the best option, to me. For where I live (UK), it's just as fast as EMS, except it goes through customs faster because it's done through Royal Mail and not a courier and I don't get customs charges on nearly as much when using it compared to EMS.

Oh yeah, and it's cheaper.

I knew he was the red and green question mark.

I hope that's not final, though. Can't make out any detail on his jaw. At least paint in those marks on the plate covering the mouth.

If it is final I don't know why Bandai won't black wash their stuff. Same problem with Rider 3. Even SHF Heart was a little underdone in that department.
>>
>>5616985

>Wait, really? And they're showing it off a month out?

Well honestly I'm guessing, heck maybe we'll get Rider 1 -and- Alpha and Omega.

Same issue with Rider 3.

At least black washing isn't too hard to do yourself.

Ah. I was going by the bottom because it says this one is going on display the 21st this month for the 45th anniversary thing, and to wait for further developments for May's exhibit (though pretty much every event to come says that it's not a guarantee of anything).

That looks fucking amazing. Its weird to see a figure look better than the actual suit. I liked the concept of having a swole KR, but in the end he just looked like he had the proportions of a dad bod wearing a muscle suit made of pillows.
>>
>>5617117
Please, I love Buff Ripshit Hongo, I'm just saying the figure looks like a pile of dicks.

The difference is the bulk actually works on the suit and not the figure because the figure is proportioned wrong.
>>
>>5617034
>Wow, they really following the old pattern release.
So you are saying, kiva never?

Jokes aside I'm glad double is getting a SHFSS, but I was really hoping Faiz would have been next in line.

>I liked the concept of having a swole KR, but in the end he just looked like he had the proportions of a dad bod wearing a muscle suit made of pillows.

I think that's more due to the static pictures. The little I've seen of Swole Rider 1 in action looks pretty neat.

>Kiva never.
Nah, Maybe they're gonna shove it somewhere along the line like Hibiki in between Kabuto and Kuuga.

But don't get your hope too high, because Kiva and Hibiki is the most unmarketable KR for Bandai. They always in doubt when releasing any merchandises related to them, the 66Action KR line even ended without releasing both of them.

Also, regarding SHFSS Hibiki shelfwarmed very hard everywhere pretty much sealed the fate for Kiva to be put in the back seat.

My guess is that either one or both of Alpha and Omega will only be packaged with the BD.

>>5619599
Updated with new sounds.

From the top of my head, it has quotes from Chase in it, it has the triple tune noise and rather than playing the standard Next System clip for the Tridoron Key/Rhino car thing, it calls out Rhino.

Amazon.co.jp will ship it since it counts as a DVD and not a toy. I preordered it back in October so it cost me about $85 for the movie and $12 to ship. However it's back up to full retail price now. Amazon Japan always uses DHl for shipping so I'll have mine tomorrow.

I guess I'll have to think about it for a day. 107 now.. or 500 later

IIRC the movie was like $50 on its own. Japanese media prices are insane. Which is of course the reason they bundle in exclusive collectibles to prop up sales.

ah yeah, when I was in japan, boxsets for Kamen Rider Stronger was like 200 dollars. Part 1 of GHOST was like 60 bucks

why is media so expensive?

doesnt anime that need a second season rely on BD sales? I hear animes that dont get a second season is because not enough people bought BDs

The reason that people always cite in krg is that they price them for the otaku who live with their parents and have a lot of disposable income due to lack of bills. Not sure if there's any truth to that.

I guess that is true. I cant find any faults in that logic

Garbage.

The prices of physical media was originally high because they were primarily sold to video rental stores. Individuals owning them was not a thing back then. In the West, shit got cheaper and the renting industry died. Renting is still big in Japan even though the prices of physical media has fallen somewhat, but it's still higher than the West. A copy of Ant-Man BD is twice as expensive as an American copy.

Anime disc prices are high either because that price is needed to turn a profit on the physical release or to at least break even the show's budget. They're very reliant on serious fans.

Because renting movies is still incredibly popular in Japan.

After years of playing with a Faiz soundboard app on my Android phone, I will finally get the real thing.

I hope they can have Takumi's actor appear for a promotional interview like they did with Diend and Gattack.

Is it me, or is Gatack a bit smaller in comparison to Kabuto?

Hard to tell since Kabuto is swaying backward and farther behind.

was $65 a good price to pay for SS decade?

Popular SS figures easily hit 8k

I just bought him in a store, in the US for $65. he was $80 on Amazon and I didn't want to wait for Mandarake so I figured it would be okay to pay that much.

I haven't followed SHF since I got Violent Emotion Decade, it's my favorite rider design. I saw the pose blank a while back but heard it wasn't going to be made, it was a surprise when I saw it in the store.

Not sure if it's an honest shop or a stupid shop, msrp on renewal Decade is 6k; they might have eaten costs on that thing instead of waiting 2-3 months and marking up for scarcity.

it was Image Anime in NY, the website says they had him for $75 at first but they regularly discount things immediately. good to know I didn't get ripped off though.
