Maybe Medicos tweaked the design with a bit more range of movement in mind? The way the hip pieces being lower than the crotch piece and the way the ball ends of the elbow joints keep telling me he'll pose really well in those areas and for poses when he throws the steel balls.

>>6398808
probably that tokyo ghoul guy that's in a suit. Just awful looking. Killed the damn line.
>>
>>6398808
In terms of qc issues, Dio Black ver. has major issues that would make some regret ordering him if it wasn't for the punch effects.

>>6398829

Mostly this for SAS in general. The suit design just didn't do it any favors and the color choices should've been more subdued. Toyko Ghoul comes off as a series that has dynamic poses or interesting weapons and acessories from the few chapters and art I've seen.

Ok, on a scale from 1 to absolutely livid, how pissed should I be? I ordered Killer Queen 2nd (supposedly complete) from Solaris for $80 shipped. Figure arrived safe and sound, but without his soundplate. I like the soundplates but a figure missing one isn't a deal breaker for me or anything. Still, dropped $80 on a supposedly complete figure. Part of me wants to comtact them and bitch, but I don't really wanna send the figure back over a soundplate when i can't read it and have several others that look cool on display.
>>
>>6399346
You're taking a loss but KQ2nd has demand so work with what you got. I never use that soundplate myself but I always view Solaris as a sort of more expensive second-hand shop so that's not too surprising. They always advertise on MFC and the prices are usually out of my comfort zone compared to the other sites.
>>
>>6399233
>Source on that?
Read the thread, faggot.
>>
>>6399370
They've definitely got a tendency toward higher prices, but here lately, they've had a few rather appealing prices( $50 Kars, $50 Wammu, $68 KQ 2nd don't think any are still available at those prices). They're also not as butt rapey as Plamoya. I've ordered used from them in the past (DIO, Koichi, & Echoes) with no issue, so this sorta threw me for a loop.
>>
>>6399346
I'd contact them. They fucked up, you might get a partial refund.
>>
>>6399346
>>6399437
>>6399536

I had a similar problem with them in the past, anon.
I bought my Kars from them. It was supposedly in almost mint condition, like 4.5/5. When the figure arrived I saw that he didn't have his horns. I asked them about it and they refunded me partially (around 70% of the price + shipping).
>>
>>6398920
>140
What a rip. He appears all the time on Mandy and even sometimes on Ami cheaper than that with the extra head included. Shipping doesn't even boost it to 140.

>>
>>6400485
Nah mate, like mandarake, pre-owned stuff you know
>>
>>6400489
ah ok,
but wouldn't it be cheaper to buy the most popular characters as soon as they are released?

and on that note, would It be a good idea to buy as many part 5 characters as I can now? the prices will go up when the anime comes out, right?
>>
>>6400485
How does second hand have anything to do with KOs?
>>
>>6400493
Not every character goes up in price, like Giorno 2nd comes up sometimes on mandy for 5k yen which is a lot cheaper.
New figures are the cheapest to get when they are just released. Older(that don't get reissues like Okuyasu) and second colors when they are gone they are gone so those go in price yes

Just buy what you want my man, don't go on a spree because of anime hype. See SicChan channel to get a feel of the figures you want to buy. Only downside of the guy is that sometimes he doesn't show the actual range of the figures aside from that he is pretty good and has reviewed every SAS but Okuyasu and Koichi I believe? Anthony Customs has a lot of them too.
>>

thanks for the viewing suggestions.
Iv'e never actually ordered from mandarake, how is the shipping?

>>6400518
I'm from south America, a single figure is 2.7k EMS and wouldn't want to risk it with sal because third world country and shit. If you are from the states or Europe I'm guessing sal is safer and cheaper. And I don't know if I'm getting lucky but all of my mandarake orders were marked as gifts(without asking) so I think you can ask for them to be marked as gift so you don't get hit with taxes maybe?
>>
>>6400530

What are some general accessories that go well with SAS figures?

Try to avoid Solaris, anon. Their new prices are ridiculous, and while their preowned prices may not be the worst, they're known for being defective as fuck. My Jotaro is super scuffed and missing his elbow caps, I've heard tons of horror stories from other anons who have ordered from them

As a fellow south american, I have to say the SAL gamble is quite worth it.
It usually takes a long ass time to arrive but it's worth it if you're a poorfag, and as of late, I haven't gotten taxed at all, which evokes a feeling similar to pic related.
You can even get extra lucky and receive it quickly, recently my Wheelnareff and my Giorno 1st arrived at the same time in customs, Pol came within the same week, while Giorno hasn't came in a whole month.

Boys I just ordered blue KC, mista 2nd, diavolo, wf giorno, wf golden experience, wf ger, Bruno 2nd, and sticky fingers 2nd for $300, what kind of quality should I expect
>>
>>6400743
Standard. The only thing you should keep an eye out for is if Blue King Crimson's eyes are painted properly since that was his QC issue across the colorways. I can see Epitaph being an easy fix but the screaming eyes from what I've seen and handled bounce around being close to the intended look or being painted really wrong. I still remember one of Baldy's KC's looking upward instead of forward.
>>
>>6400752
Who is baldy? Is this on both the colorways or just the blue?
>>
>>6400837
>across the colorways

So KC 1st, WF, and Blue Ver.

Baldy was a namefag who use to frequent here. Normally I filter names but I did like the photos he puts up and that story about that destroyed Clear Killer Queen box still gets me to this day.

Is it just me or has the releases of sas figures slowed down as of late? Feels like i've been waiting for Johnny for an unreasonably long time.
>>
>>6401600
They have. It's crazy to see Yoichi not having a release date since the painted reveal since I expected to see preorders up around a few months after. JJBA slowed to a crawl for even reissues.

If or when Part 5 gets an anime I'd imagine they will ramp up production for some reissues with a recolor or two if we're lucky. The threads reflect that with mostly anon's starting to get into this line or rushing to buy Part 5 SAS before they become hard/expensive to find.

lots of newfags lately, huh?

This line used to be monthly, whether it be a second colour or a new character. Characters sometimes came with different expressions and accessories! Weird, I know. To top it off they costed 3000yen.


Ever since they started branching out to other IP they slowed down. Now, you're lucky to get more than a couple a year, they are way overpriced (not entirely their fault, but too much for what you are getting) and come with shit all. Baoh and Gyro being exclusive is just the cherry on top.

That's not a new thing tho.
The line changed to worse version of itself over the years, but some of the latest releases, like Anasui and Weather, have some really good accessories, Anasui and Jolyne don't even get generic screaming alternate heads.
Obviously not gonna say Medicos doesn't do dumb shit and that their release schedule is good, but being this mad seems quite weird to me. Just don't pick up the shit that doesn't interest you, stop acting like they killed your family.

Having just finished Part 6, I now truly realize the anger over the lack of figures it got.

I'm kinda surprised they didn't do Weather Report's stand, considering the final fight. It probably was in there for around the time of GER. But then Part 5 was treated much better in general.

It's a real shame, it's not a complex design and your color choices are mostly white. Easy one-off unless sculpting another SAS is costly to them at that point. I'm a little surprised they didn't want to ride the Jotaro train one more time to finish the set of Part's 3,4, and 6 (5 was a minor appearance with its own outfit but that's an understandable exemption).
>>
>>6401709
>>6401548

Got mine from Manda like a week ago. God damm am I happy that I can finally cross that one off my list.
>>
>>6402808

I mentioned this a few threads ago, but a cool idea for Weather Report's design as to spice up the mainly white coloring, would be to have it solid paint from the head, but as it gets to the waist, it'd slowly start to transition from solid, to translucent to clear plastic at his feet, since you rarely see him fully materialized anyway.

plus the extra cloud parts, a couple of blood spires, maybe a thundercloud or two, if not hurricane pieces, but then again, effect parts exist as well.

I'd fucking love a weather report stand figure, though.

what is the difference between a 1.5 figure and a 2 figure?
>>
>>6404530
Seeing Jotaro is the only case, 1.5 was made to replace the original 1st's heads due to the poor sculpting job with the standard head you see on Part 3 Jotaro's now. Stuff like 2nd and 3rd are labels for the alternate colorways so Jotaro 2nd is his blue colorway and Jotaro 3rd is his green. There are other labels like WF, Limited Edition, and "color" Ver. but same rule applies.
>>
Hey guys. I just received my order from Mandarake but it was lacking the stand of the figure. How should I approach this situation with them? Maybe they will send me another stand or a partial refund?

1.5 jotaro for 7000 a good price?
>>
>>6404758
Jotaro 1.5 is expensive because he comes with a Yare Yare Daze soundplate. I bought a Jotaro 1.0 off AmiAmi for 2k. And the Purple Jotaro included the 1.5 black heads with it as a preorder bonus, so i bought a preowned Purple Jotaro off Amiami that included them for 3k. That might not be the best deal unless you really care about that soundplate.

Man I remember a couple years ago he was dirt cheap and one of the easiest to get. Think this line is coming to an end for me. Prices are just too ridiculous these days.

That's funny, I must have bought this from another store in Japan called Mandarake with a Nakano location back in May.
>>
>>6405118
Sometimes good deals show up in Manda, doesn't mean they're the usual price. How new are you?
>>
>>6405076
I saw him pop up like two or three weeks ago for 3.5k. Dunno what shape he was in. Mandarake's price listings are weird. Alot of the times, you'll see something for one price only to come back later and see a different price listed after it's sold, dunno of it's something to do with the way the site is coded or what. Also, anyone else notice that some on Mandarake's prices make NO sense? Like, they'll have Kakyoin pop for 5k sometimes, even though you can get him brand new from Amiami for like 3.8k. Also, if you go back far enough, you can find old listings that never sold still up for whatever absurdly high price caused it to sit around, Like they've still got a World 1st for 12k on the oldest page.
>>
>>6405175
Yeah, there's a Bruno for 9k
Or Wonfest Dio for 7k you go to the page itself and there's more option for like 4k last time I checked
>>
>>6405175
Koichi was going for around that price in other stores in Japan as well, Mandrake was really the only one that had random, inconsistent price hikes.

Some people e-mailed Medicos regarding an eventual general release for Gyro, which they replied that they do intend to release a Gyro 2nd at some point. Whether you see Medicos themselves as a reliable source, it's up to you.
The way I see it is that they realized that it's ten times smarter to release the exclusive first rather then doing it at a later point.
>people don't know when the general release will come
>people don't know what the other colorway will be like

as opposed to what they did before which was

It's surprising it took this long for them to take such a stance. It's probably gonna bring a lot more people to their booth in WF too.

Mandarake, they sell second hand figures for mostly reasonable prices. Also check the OP for a list of other sites that might be able to help you.

Don't use Amazon for the most part. Mandarake, Jungle, and other 2nd hand Buyfag sites will help you find older releases.

Just wondering, on average how long does it usually take for figures to arrive from Japan?

It's been over a month since I ordered my first JoJo figure and it still hasn't arrived
>>
>>6406508
Depends, what kind of shipping did you use? SAL usually takes the longest.
>>
>>6406517
Just the standard shipping option on amazon

The final deadline for the delivery hasn't been passed yet but still, I didn't realize it would take this long
>>
>>6406523
I hope your seller is fair on that if things go south. I had a really bad run-in on one who shipped an order on SAL and I never saw that package after 3 months. I got my money back but if I ever find a deal that beats Mandarake or AmiAmi preowned then RSAL should be the minimum deal so I can track its status for Amazon. Though it sounds like you got SAL which is slow as a rock and has potential to take months for some countries with no tracking to boot. The few RSAL packages going to my location in the US would roughly take 2 weeks but I'm not sure about your location and how long that will take in particular.

If you want speed, EMS/DHL can get to the US by roughly 3-4 days once dispatched though it costs more.
>>
What should I be expecting to pay for Gyro second hand?
>>
>>6406682
About tree fiddy.
>>
>>6406534
Hope this is not a redundant question, but I used SAL through Mandarake to get a WF Joseph back in May, and it's been stuck in the outward office of exchange since June 6th. Never happened with any of my other figures, so I'm wondering if and when I should start trying to see what's going on?
>>
>>6406729
Have you checked your local post office site? Eventually Japan Post's website won't be as up to date on your order status once your item hits your country. Also state what country you're from to help get a better idea on what could happen to your package since some places can actually take more than a month to hit from what I've read from other anon's using SAL shipping speeds.
>>
>>6406729
Ah, probably helpful info. Live on the west coast of the US. No updates from USPS's site either. I've never had a figure take more than three weeks to ship, and they usually arrive in about two.
>>
>>6406971
My general guess is maybe it's held up by something or someone didn't notice it for shipment but wait some more and keep an eye on tracking before inquiring its status.
>>
>>6406997
Alright, thanks for the advice. Sounds like I'll just stick to what I've been doing. I'll keep checking both postal sites until August and then start trying to contact someone. Assuming that the problem's on Japan's end, should I try contacting the Post directly or through Mandarake?
>>
>>6407049
Japan Post but I don't know how easily that would go compared to if your package got stuck in a USPS facility and all you have to do is make a phone call or an investigstion to get it moving or found.

quick question for anyone who's ever ordered from mandarake before, would I be able to add things to an order after I put it though? I haven't received a payment request yet and the items are from the same store.
>>
>>6407935
As long as you haven't paid and the items are from the same store I believe you can combine them. If I'm not mistaken you'll have to conact them to do it since you already placed the order.

AmiAmi has more details on Gyro.

I'm just going off of google translate, but it looks like he will be sold on Amiami starting August 5th without the WF soundplate.
>>
>>6408184
Yes, Medicos will make 200 units available for AmiAmi.
>>
>>6408186
That's barely any, plus he costs 8000 yen, hope he doesn't sell out in 20 minutes, because i'm pretty dead set on getting him.

>>
>>6408184
fuck me, not sure if I'm happy about this or not
I was fully prepared to pay scalper WF prices, not sure if I should pay the scalpers on Mandy or wait for the amiami listing and risk missing it. 200 units will sell out in a fucking second
>>
>>6408412
If you've got a space to display them sure. But then your looking at probably around $800 for the four of them. And I don't even wanna think about how much more expensive shipping is going to be 0_0

>>6408418

>Not buying one from manda to be sure
>try to get one from Amiami
>selling one for bro prices
Shiggydiggy
>>
>>6408442
then it would be called gyro second

They heard the complaints about this one being exclusive, and they decided to let amiami sell 200 of them for those whiners. Pretty cool if you ask me.
>>
>>6408180
Imagine if they somehow make a Star Platinum BIG second and it includes a giant ORA ORA ORA plate.

The one you like best. Don't care for Ceasar myself.

>>6409186
Mandarake is pretty anal about the way boxes are brought in but a lot of items have been opened by previous owners. You go there to off load various items for cash (or sealed WF exclusives for bigger sales.

It's legit and I've been buying from them for years.

Which figures are most important to start out with in a part 5 collection? Who has the most priority? I am late to the game on these and already have ample figures on all other parts sans 7 and want to know who is going to get more rare and who will stay in stock for awhile
>>
>>6411010
I guess Giorno 1st and Gold Experience 1st. WF GE is surprisingly cheap and easy to find back when I started but I'm not so sure now. WF GER if you really want his Awakened Head since he price trends pretty low versus WF Killer Queen with Kosaku's head and non-BTD hand.

Also Diavolo and King Crimson 1st is a pretty popular bet from the anon's who rushed out to buy Part 5 SAS. Other than that, the rest of the gang is probably something you want to follow up with Mista and Narnarcia being popular picks in my eyes.

Trish and Spice Girl, Abbachio and Moody Blues will probably sit around for a bit more. Wheelchair Polnareff is also a fun recommendation if you can get him at a decent price.
>>
>>6411039
Also forgot Bruno and Sticky Fingers. I can see white being preferred more but that's totally up to you. Look at their listings in MFC for the bonuses the 2nd variants come with and judge which you would prioritize more.
>>
>>6411010
1st step: buy everything in stock while you can. blue mista, white bruno, narancia and king crimson are top piority.
2nd: get everything else priorizing the figs above.
3rd: get trish and spice girl.

I willingly bought a 1.0 telling myself "I can just ignore the face" But leaving him in a pose with his hand covering his face got old fast.

Not related to the JJBA line but the Tokyo Ghoul line really botched this guy.

Well Tokyo Ghoul is shit, so it's only fitting its figures are shit too.
>>
>>6411936
God that looks horrible. What would be the best of the line?
>>
>>6411916
for best I really love Both White Snake and King Crimson articulations and sculp for stand.on characters I would say Both Josephs accessory wise and articulation.

as for worst only Part 3 Polnaref's face and both koichi and act 3's lack of articulation.
>>
what coloration of bruno is the better of the 2, and why does it seem like most people here have the blue one?
>>
>>6411941
Kaneki manages to be decent even if they didn't bother to slap another joint in his kagune for extended articulation. I'm not a fan of the series but if Medicos made some effort on the line then it was him.

>>6411944
The easiest and cheaper option generally. Bruno 1st had listings putting him on the upper end of pricing in the aftermarket. Even my import store who marks up everything non-Bandai had him at $70 because he was the most common option.
>>
>>6411944
the blue one has better headsculp/coloratioj which is black hair compare to whites dark blue hair.
>>
>>6411944
Blue is cheaper, so it's a given for people who only care about having the whole crew. People who like Bruno a lot tend to own both though.

Ok so this is a weird one but here we go
Can anyone post pictures of Weather Report and Killer Queen first? Preferably with the clouds too.
I realize this is a whole load of heresy, but I'm not too excited about spending 4-5k on kira just for stand autism, and Weather would in fact look a bit lonely, I thought it would just make sense to pair a lonely user and lonely stand.

How will the D4C figure work? Will there be a love train figure or will it just be an extra head for the figure? Will they do the pink/blue color scheme or will they do one that looks like vomit? Will it be an exclusive?
>>
>>6412304
I honestly wouldn't even want the love train head (bunny ears D4C is best D4C), I'd rather them put the budget towards American flag pieces.
I don't think I've ever seen D4C not illustrated in pink and blue (videogames, Araki's colored art work, etc) so I wouldn't imagine them trying any other colorway

Pink and Blue is likely for a 1st variant. I need to search around for other possible colorways since Medicos can cherry pick specific colors in solo artworks by Araki.

Had a look around Jojoveller and the stand book and came up with a slightly different blue and pink D4C with black shoulders and a white and green D4C artwork so if Medicos really picks an alt it would possibly be this or a variation of what Araki did.

Hey, I'm selling a few figures. Not on BST, not here. I'm selling locally. I'm tired of my collection. Are these prices good? All figures are used, but they are brand new, with all acessories and such, the boxes are alright.

I'm selling for more or less what I paid for them, most were used too.

Blue Giorno - 82 USD
Green Shiza - 116 USD
Blue Joseph - 76 USD
White Rohan w/ HD - 82 USD
Gappy - 82 USD
Josuke (normal one, not pink) - 82 USD
Blue Jotaro - 82 USD
Pink Kira - 211 USD

I'm selling them to brazilian collectors, and if it looks expensive to you, its because here the government taxes everything and most people buy from each other regionally. We avoid importing them.
>>
Just got my blue jotaro....is his head supposed to not be able to turn or is my figure just defective?

It's really good, especially when paired with Bruno. Out of the four Stands that I have, it's my favorite of the bunch.
>>
>>6413954
For those of us that don't live in Brazil, it's really hard to say. As an American, those prices look absolutely absurd, but, I also don't have to pay any taxes or customs fees on figures coming out of Japan. For instance, right now, I could get a brand new Josuke from Amiami for about 3800 yen + about 1000 yen for air mail shipping. After conversion, it should come out below $45 USD. If customs and taxes are so bad in Brazil that it nearly doubles that, then first of all, I feel for all Brazilian figure collectors, and secondly, I dunno how many people oustside of Brazil can really comment on your prices friend.
>>
>>6414365

I see. In two hours I sold four of them (Josuke, Jotaro, Giorno and Joseph). Obviously I converted BRL to USD. Is Pink Kira ok? I didn't understood >>6414192 reaction meme.
>>
>>6414425
An American would not buy pink Kira for $211. You can get him for ~$120.
>>
>>6414425
I don't know much about Brazil, but those prices seem way too absurd for me as a Canadian.

>Gappy - 82 USD
Gappy should cost me 4,860JPY (54CAN) on AmiAmi or 3,240JPY (36CAN) on Mandarake
Shipping would raise those to somewhere around 64CAN or 45CAN

Star Platinum BIG on Medico's site now.
https://medicos-e-shop.net/products/detail.php?product_id=396
>>
>>6413954
As a brazilian collector, those prices are ridiculous, I would not buy any of those, except for Giorno 2nd, which is actually decent.
But as for the others, I import all of my stuff and I'd never pay anything close to those prices in a figure like Gappy and Jotaro.
Also, haven't been taxed in months, maybe the legislation changed.
>>
>>6413954
As someone who's lived in Central America (countries pretty far behind Brazil, for the most part) the worst you could expect on a tax is somewhere between 10% or 20% on a real bad day. That would bump up Jotaro 2nd's or Josuke 8's price to $55 or $60 max after shipping from a site like Amiami, and that's brand new. Unless your buyers only know about Amazon, those will have a real hard time selling.

Why is part 3 star platinum so expensive compared to part 4?
>>
>>6414915
People rushed to buy them even when places decided to mark up. Star Platinum 3rd usually was 3k, 2nd bounces around 6-9k(due to the soundplate), 1st I think was 3 or 4 when I found him.

I just think stores believe people are willing to buy him at that price and adjusted accordingly.
>>
>>6414615
Another br. Maybe you weren't taxed because of the shipping method you choose. Because I live in Rio and almost all my orders were taxed in the past.
>>
>>6414915
Older. More rare. P4 SP had a recent rerelease and P3 SP didn't. There seems to be a general preference for P3 SP (a preference that I share). If you're patient, Star Platinum 1st (green one) pops up on Mandarake periodically for between 3k and 4k yen, hell, I think I saw one pop up for 2.5k not too long ago(sold REALLY fuckin quick though). 2nd and 3rd are noticeably more pricey though.
>>
>>6414742
Is it supposed to be moved around at all? I figure you would want to pin it and glue it back in to place.
>>
>>6411339

If that sale didn't work out, there's a Jotaro 2nd with the preorder heads on Amiami right now for 4k yen.

No re-release of the best colours.
Popularity.
>>
>>6415514
They are popular and sell. That's it.

It doesn't help if you came in during the anime adaptation and Kira and Killer Queen were being reissued and people wanted the 2nd variants due to the colorway chosen. Hell, before that they were still a pain to find and were found for a pretty high price. Why Medicos never reissue 2nd variants and beyond is a mystery.

WF Killer Queen comes with an additional head and hand and the colorway is pretty great.

I've been thinking about getting a WF Crazy Diamond and had a question about it. I've heard that the alt Josuke head that comes with him isn't compatible with newer Josuke releases. Is that true? How bad is the fit? Is it at all possible to fit it on the newer release Josuke's neck peg?
>>
Many pre-owned's appeared on AmiAmi right now.

I need Abbacchio to complete my Bruno's gang, but he's 3500 there! Should I wait for him on Mandarake for the usual 2500?
>>
>>6415951
Speaking from experience here, and do not attempt it if you have a newer model of josuke. If you do, when you take it off the peg will most likely snap like it did mine. But even without the head wf crazy diamond is still worth it, its superior to the original in my opinion

Guys, I need ad information.

>>6418781
Polnareff and Jotaro 1st are pretty iffy but then you have highlights like Magician's Red and Star Platinum that are pretty fun to pick up. Same with regular Dio with his accessory count and The World. I wouldn't rush out to buy Part 3 really and espcially with stuff like Star Platinum 3rd being absurdly priced now for what he was.

If anything, Jotaro 3rd has those great punch effects and the same with Dio Black ver. even with all his infamous qc issues.
