    I have a question about the Monster since I just got space to diplay and open mine. There is a pivot joint near the back that allows you to angle the upper portion up and mine is completely unable to stay in the up position with the weight of the top of the figure. I don't think I will ever need to use it but just curious if others have the same issue and what the point of that joint is if it doesn't actually "work"?
  2. Pretty cool. That figure looks frail like a baby bird though.

    amiami has a pretty good deal on Monsters right now.
  4. I'm not going to wait nearly that long. Just good to know there is no need to stay up hitting refresh on multiple devices, lol.
  5. No need to rush on po'ing the add on parts since they are exclusives, right?
  6. Yes, what did you get? More details please. As I eluded to before, it's quite possible the same factories that produce for Arcadia are the ones producing the KOs from the same molds. Seems to be the easiest way to go.
  7. If the quality is equal or better than Arcadia, I'm in for M&M. Might buy the official too if they ever come out again.

    I hope the Regult variants come as standalone, full packages. I don't even want to think about the demand on regular Regults will be like if they are just add on parts. If they are add ons, at least reissue the Regults to go along.
  10. I'm all for KO...it creates competition. Anyone who says it's stealing...one of the first rules of business sucess is to answer the question, "Is my business easily duplicated?". So if you are a business that takes advantage of cheap labor in a country that doesn't have the same rules that you do, it's on you to deal with the risks that come with it. I buy based on value to me. If something is great from the get go and priced reasonably, I will absolutely buy the original. If a KO has better quality, features or other advantages, little to no drawbacks and is cheaper, then it would be silly to me not at least consider that instead.
  11. One week is hardly forever. Just sit back and relax...worry about it if it's been close to a month and you don't hear anything. But by then, I'm sure you'll already be enjoying your figure.
  12. Nice pickup...I still need to get one! I noticed that and was thinking it was just War Machine and I never noticed it said "Modular" before but you are right, it's a new War Machine! I need to know more about that and I still need to get Shape Changing Iron Man. Edit: I don't see anything about the Modular War Machine on Google...some other new limited show exclusive?

    I hope you have an extra "0" in there. If so then yes, it's a big and heavy item. amiami also has one of the highest shipping rates so it is about what you should be paying. If the extra "0" is not a mistake then I would try to cancel the order, lol.

    The Roy 1S on HLJ was a one time thing since it was a Tamashii exclusive. HLJ usually doesn't carry exclusives and that was a special thing for the holidays. The Hikaru 1S was not an exclusive so it's just based on stock. If it runs out, it's usually out. Prices will only be going up...

    LOL
  16. Haha, he's hanging out along with the F-14 enjoying the view. Can't wait for Sentinel to put out their Ride Armor and after I get my self in another room setup, will be doing some rearranging.

    That's kinda wack...When did they start including it?
  18. I'm sure most that X-Men wave will be on ~$10 clearance like the previous one so I'm not in a rush. By the time I decided I wanted Dougram, it was sold out at all the good preorder prices. Hopefully the one I just ordered will come through. I just ordered Xabungle too. I'm not missing any more HMR releases.

    Cool! These stands and figures can be finicky, especially when working in a cramped space but they are still a lot of fun! Poor lighting but it was the best I could do late at night. Also, while messing around with the figures, I noticed 1S Roy didn't come with covers for the upper shoulder area...is this correct or did I just miss them?
  20. Ah, makes sense. Good deal in that case! I have not seen the new X-Men wave at retail yet. I really want Shatterstar! Saw them in person last night at a specialty shop but not paying the markup. Meanwhile, I think I might have secured an HMR Dougram for myself, finally.
  21. Whut? How? I saw Maestro and almost bought it but passed because I wasn't going to pay $13+ for a 3.75"...I hate paying that much for the 6" versions.

    Even if NY restocks, they always raise the price from their super low preorder prices.
  23. Sweet! I need one of those. Only wish it actually changed shape like in the comics. Thanks for the insight on those GT Spirits, Mechanic and spanner! I'll just pass on them all for now, oh well. Nice Mclarens too! I just saw a P1 in person over the weekend, very nice. F1 is definitely my favorite all time Mclaren though.
