It wasn't just Whitebeard and Garp's popularity - manufacturers tend to have a set ratio of characters in a box, and I think there were few Whitebeard and Garp figures to begin with.
I certainly hope Bepo won't be rare. I really want him. ):
Hmmm. I wonder why…
@sephirona: I found out that your Keyholder Ace is from IK One Piece Part 3! The first sessions of IK were actually numbered. Updated the wikia article with some pieces of info on it.
I'm currently looking at those display cases things crease linked to a few pages ago |D (like this morning but we already passed a few xD)
I sorta want Kuji Ace to have his own mirrored case but i don't know how wide it should be and stuff. So does anybody have a guess?
Neo Ace is like 12 cm wide… so I'm guessing that 18 cm should be enough but yeah...
When is this kuji ichiban stuff coming out? I am not really into it, it is some sort of lottery but later it goes to regular sale but in very limited numbers is this right?

I do hope so D8 because I have no chance for the lottery stuff.
I bought a few IK items at a convention though.. But there was actually only one of each… so yeah I don't really know.
If they don't... I shall rage.
_____ it's biiiii~g … ohhh just like the real thing eeh?!!! gosh i wish i could do something like that .. are you going to make other characters den den mushis? i sooo~ wanna see it fully painted, please post it!
@Nia:

Thanks xD Sure, I'll post whenever I get around to painting him. No guarantees on when, though, I'm such a slacker. Leopard Lucci is still waiting for his tail to be attached, LMAO. orz

Woot, great job (; Thanks for the update!
Ooh, there were other keychains of the same type as Ace! All short and stubby and adorable. Those IK plushies are abhorrable, though. Glad to see their plushie making skills have gotten better.
Ugh…I'm way too poor. I've just found something, not OP related, that I've wanted for years and years...my ceramics TAs will probably return some of the studio fees soon, I'll have enough by May. I must bother you again, crease. 失礼します。 ;-;
Don't really like square playarts.
Always looks so good on prototype, but when it comes to final product, the quality is just drop soooo much.And now they make it even bigger and more expensive.
Seriously?
Aww that sucks…:sad:
Well it's not THAT expensive. Thanks for the heads-up, now I can prepare for it =')
I do hope so D8 because I have no chance for the lottery stuff.

I just searched some of the items and they are great but so expensive.:sad:
Yeah, expensive. ):
What's interesting, though, is that YJ only seems to have whole sets of Marineford IK up for pre-order, not single items. So hopefully the things we want won't be as expensive as those. I personally only want Kuji Ace, and I doubt he'll cost 300 bucks alone. =_=;
Yeah, expensive. ):

YJ? Do you have a link? I like the Nightmare Luffy and Oars from previous sets but they sure are expensive as hell now nothing under 150 bucks. Where they always that expensive or did the price just rise because of the time that passed?
I remember having a chance to get kuji nightmare luffy and oars for about $80 together. But I didn't. smacks herself I try to keep my figures at a bare minimum. So, they used to cost a lot less, but became more expensive I suppose

Oh, I was talking about the Marineford Kuji set. As for Nightmare Luffy, most of them are still under 150, actually. Though shipping is another story. There are some on Ebay:
And really cheap Luffy here on YJ. Two bids, but buy it now is only 6800 yen, so…go badger crease! Lolol;

Lol that smack was justified i guess i would be lucky to find one of them for $80, the least i found are 180€ for Oars and 160€ Nightmare Luffy this includes shipping though.

Thanks the ebay auction for Nightmare Luffy looks nice but he got only 2486 ratings and only 99,8% positive, i am always so afraid of bootlegs. The other ones i am not registrated at yahoo auctions and i can not navigate through this site at all because i don't know a single word japanese.

Lol, that's a pity, cause the Ebay Luffy is the only one actually being sent from Japan. Wonderonlinestore, a reputable seller I've bought from before, also has one for sale, but for a bit more money. 99.8% isn't too bad, and if you can get the seller to tell you it's authentic you can probably file for Buyer Protection in case anything's wrong.
And that's why I mentioned crease when I posted the YJ link. (;

Oh god. I love crease xD I'm finally able to get stuff I wouldn't be able to get ever. Unless I went to Japan or smthng… (though they're sorta giving problems... but i hope they get solved... before I spend all my money again)
EDIT: does anybody also know what the sizes are for Kuma's base?
New Shiorhige Custom, more than 200.000 yen in YAJ. Attencion HUGE SPOILER, you can see it if you read manga chapter 576:

I didn't know Whitebeard was in Hokuto no Ken.
I hope the WC figures appear soon:sad:
sighs Me to :(
Ok I took Layton out of the box AND HE SMELLS LIKE RAID D:
.. Do they have a bug problem where they manufacture these things? D:
There's a lot of little errors on the stuff, but nothing super horrible, except Layton came with a mark on his :D face that I can't take off DX
Yeah, crease is awesome. I'd have gone insane a while ago after seeing all those things I wanted if I couldn't get them. ;A; Thanks a ton, crease.

This is ridiculous. The proportions are horrible. If it actually looked more like Whitebeard, at least the price would be justified. But what the hell? LMAO
If I had two thousand bucks to spend, needless to say I wouldn't spend it on that monstrosity. ._. How bout buying the POP or the Kuji WB coming out soon, folks?

You're too kind.
Whoa wait wait wait a sec..
..
PEOPLE ARE BIDDING on that Shitty shitty shitty shitty shitty unproportional piece of shit Whitebeard custom?? and it's OVER 2000 BUCKS??? Their are some idiotic, retarded, stupid ass blind people then. That is HORRIBLE. i mean.. JUST AWFUL D:
Whitebeard look like he died from massive muscle spasm…. His body got so stiff, everything just exploded...
His muscles just look really silly to me and he's got 2 shoulder tumors.
@Corson:
You're too kind.
Maybe I am. Maybe saying it's an affront to human existence would be better. :U Grapes strung on a string and painted with fleshtones is what I think it looks like. The shoulders are in a Franky shoulder-dislocation Battleship attack formation.
Bidders must be somehow really rich and really stupid at the same time. ;3;

HA!!! That's more like it!
well I just got back from Supanova with my new box of Arabasta MBH's and they're legit but still the quality of them bugs me
Playasia just put boa Hancock up for preorder. I keep reloading their page every so often throughout the day to check for the WFCs but have to relent to go to bed sigh
There was a tiny mistake in the mailing system not too long ago at AmiAmi which told me I ordered something twice. When I asked about it there wasn't another problem, to my relief.
they also attached my preorderlist 8D
So I discovered I have a preorder list with a total of 50664 yen at Ami Ami for the next half year (→o←)ゞ
I hope shipping won't kill me ;v;
Egads. Looked at HLJ's Super Effect Ace page and saw the photos they finally uploaded of the figure. Okay, it really is pretty bad. LMAO
There are shots of his back, and unlike the wonderful GLM/hi-spec figures, Super Effect Ace has no muscle definition whatsoever. Also, as maggie said, non-existent thighs. It's too late now, though. Just got the shipping notice for him. Should have saved that money for more important things and waited a few years down the line for someone to finally get tired of seeing theirs and put it up for 100 yen. LOL

Ugh what is this muscle monster?
One question to everyoen here how do you navigate through yahoo auctions site? Do you all speak and read japanese?
I really should take pictures of the stuff I need to sell…what's the best way to mail out small items within the U.S.? First class packages and priority mail, right? I need to figure out how to send stuff before I start selling my leftovers. 8|
Ugh what is this muscle monster?
One question to everyoen here how do you navigate through yahoo auctions site? Do you all speak and read japanese?
I navigate through YJ somewhat decently because I took a few years of Japanese in school, and my teacher was hardcore and really good. It isn't too hard to learn the alphabet, though sometimes foreign words are translated into katakana differently than you'd expect. But I don't speak it as well because I'm horribly self-conscious when it comes to accents…;3;

I really wish there was a list of sellers who are trustable. I always ask if it's the original but i had sellers answer it with stuff like "it's the original Portrait Of Pirates chinese version".:getlost:
If they answer that way then it's simple - don't buy from them. I make a point to always ask the seller before I bid if the item is "official, authentic, made by bandai/banpresto", etc. It's even better if the listing itself says "we only sell authentic merchandise". Also, I ask them to include the authentication slips with the purchase, even though they're probably not all that useful when determining legitness, heh. If they say it's the "chinese version", chances are it's bootlegged. Official sellers wouldn't write that. Why would they?
And there's always buyer protection. I think Ebay's a little safer than it was maybe 5-7 years ago. I've been fine with the stuff I got from them recently. For now. o3o
Still no WFC on play-asia, but they do have Grandline Men 3 back in stock so ordered me a Luffy :D And 2 random mini big heads
Same with Rona, its also too late for me since I have received shipping notice on the super effect figures :( Wishing that my super effects became an exception, have good face sculpts, without the constipated face of Smoker (cross fingers)
I think everybody here are always refreshing the play-asia webpage to check on the release of WFC
Question about Play-Asia-
How long do orders normally take to process? Now I'm sure I'm just worrying but after last time I can't help it. I placed the order, then payed instantly via paypal. The confirmed the payment and included the payment ID in the notes as last time they lost my order. Now it says 'payment confirmed. Waiting for credit'.
Do I just need to wait for them to catch up?

awww I'm just gonna give him a chance. Banking on the fact that it's better in person and if not that at least it's something new to look at ^_^;;

When it says chinese/asian version it is never the original version as far as i see. Some sellers have stock photos but never answer the questions i ask them and others say it's original but have bad reputition.

I've been meaning to do this for a while. Here is a list of Japanese that might help you guys out when searching yahoo auctions. It's not a complete list, I'll add to it later, but this is a good start. I didn't add the characters' names because there are so many. Just copy and paste their names from the Japanese text under their photo in the OP Wiki. I also copy and paste the info from the ads into Google Translate http://translate.google.com/#
Happy hunting!

Thanks Crease!
I really wish there was a list of sellers who are trustable. I always ask if it's the original but i had sellers answer it with stuff like "it's the original Portrait Of Pirates chinese version".:getlost:
I can give you a quick list since I've bought 10-12 authentic OP items off of ebay in the last couple of months (even though you requested it 8 hours ago :D).
When it says chinese/asian version it is never the original version as far as i see. Some sellers have stock photos but never answer the questions i ask them and others say it's original but have bad reputition.
So then don't buy from them. That's why you ask in the first place, right? (;
