One Piece Collectibles v.5 - See first post for the Release List

Banpresto Brotherhood figure are made by the same guy who made the super dx ace…
the picture that we've seen is only at 80% completion so it means that they can still improve on luffy! -
I'm getting anxious waiting for my MBHs from amiami, too. ;-; Gigant Battle is out now, so there's nothing keeping my bundled package from coming to me. All those Lucci MBHs up for auction on YJ are tearing my heart out. :T

Same. I can't believe the numbers I'm seeing some of you guys slap down for customs fees. Enough to buy a whole other figure, lol. :/ Ouch.

Having stumbled upon a series of photos of some P.O.P. figures on 4chan, I saw this figure of the crazy beast mode-Chopper.
Is this part of an as-yet-unreleased run of figures? I can't seem to find info on them anywhere.
I'm dying to get a chopper figure that isn't giant head kawaii-desu-ne-uguu~ mode.

Ebay has this, though I wouldn't immediately buy one since it's strange that it's so cheap with free shipping and all:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Banpresto-One-piece-TOMY-Chopper-Rumble-Ball-DX-Figure-/320534939993?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4aa15f0959Chopper Kumitateshiki DX Figure: Rumble Ball. I think it was released a while ago.
-edit-
Yeah, don't buy that Ebay one, it's a bootleg. There are some legit listings on YJ, though.

much appreciated.

No problem. (:
Posted some Yahoo Japan links in my previous post if you're willing to go through a proxy. Ebay might have more, but I'd always be careful if you're using Ebay.
edit:
oh yay. Fununiverse has one. Iirc they're a legit Ebay shop, and you can always ask them beforehand to verify, etc.

just paid for my keychains from amiami… over $30 for 3 of them x.x WOW. Shit. conversion rate is HORRID T_____T I'm gonna rethink pre-ordering stuff on a whim thinking 'wow this is cheap!' when it's so NOT Dx;
-
Same. I can't believe the numbers I'm seeing some of you guys slap down for customs fees. Enough to buy a whole other figure, lol. :/ Ouch.
its not the fees that get me..its the shipping either from japan or 2 another country
cost me 24.00 to ship 2 packages international (16.00 and 6.00)
hopefully the packages get to thier destinations..ive never shipped stuff out muchalthough im hoping for a trade soon …if anyone is intrested in soundrops:getlost:
-
Got my payment request from AmiAmi for Gecko Moria and Crocodile, great!
-
NOOO I should've ordered Moria from AmiAmi T_T FFFFFF damn!

D: Hopefully HLJ will follow soon TT_TT
Alright I finally cleaned up things so I could take Franky out, and while I have to get a riser before he can join everyone else this is how he'll be displayed for the time being:
[hide]
[/hide]The guns make him lean over too much :/ That won't work with him being over the riser. Also I had to pry open his fridge with a knife XP And the details of the guns are quite awesome _
Also got these panson swings, Dofla's skin is kinda dark but he's still super cute <3
[hide]
[/hide] -
Finally picked up my Hancock at the post office. Don't want to open it just yet though. And yay, gold sticker. Usually get the silver.
Sweetness, I really like the way she turned out. I'm sure you'll enjoy her company also. But yeah, nothing wrong with "silver" from Japan POPs….just means that it's higher priced/deluxe line (over a certain price limit, see POP wiki for more info)...in Japan it's more of a platinum....Silver with english on it is usually from Hong Kong/other Asian Areas where Toei distributes.
Hey I got mine too today! Check it out!
…
I even got the New Era One Piece Cap! Freakin' Sweet!Sweet! I need to pose mine…got it today like the rest of you guys....but thanks for the pics, I think I'll hold back on these pics till I can really pose them well...this requires the wife's assistance hah, I'm no good at this kind of stuff.
Alright I finally cleaned up things so I could take Franky out…The guns make him lean over too much :/
Sweet Arei, congrats on getting him out. He's a beast for sure and I'm debating if I should keep the guns there too….pends on how other POPs fit around it I guess....I need all the space I need heh.
@ Legato: Here are some pics of Super DX Ace I took for size comparison with POPs you know:
!
I also bought some new display cubes with steps from Daiso over the weekend….these work hell of a lot better than the little ones I was using!
!
-
Lol i think these are great
[hide]
[/hide]And a few more but most of them where already posted.

Ace and gol D roger .. a shiny Heavy point chopper
Kizaru with…Light sword XD O.omy money wil be drained because of all this XD XD XD
-
Is it just mine or does the Hancock P.O.P have a bad stand? I hate it when you can only choose one of the pegs on the base and the stance isn't as solid.
-
OMG! Those Choppers!
Lame choice for the first set. But this'll mean set 2 has both Crossdressing Choppers! <3
-
SO getting the admirals.
-
GAGraphic report:

for one of the newer series let me know. -
this has got to be the oddest piece of merchandise ive seen this year

Yay,Franky just came in,had to pay customs of course ~12,50€ thats about 16$.the postdude had no change so i only paid 10€ and he the rest from his pocket. I'm fine with it.
Hope Banpresto will not continue releasing stuff in that speed or it's getting to be a really expensive year.
-
High probability of us all being broke. q_q
Not me though haha, i am only interested in POP and MBH
Wonder when P.O.P Blackbeard will be release :getlost:
-

I'm generally only interested in P.O.P as well but some of the new lines and certain DX, as well as Super DX appearing more now makes it way too hard to resist.
-

Well, we got to self-control on our purchase =( Have you even think of how messy your room will look like in the future if you collect all sorts of line? :blink:
The thought of that makes me stick to only P.O.P and MBH -
Starting to get kinda annoyed now.
2 weeks and still no sign of Hancock.
-
So im a bit confused…has buggy always a admiral coat with a "crossed" admiral sign on the back? or was he only wearing that shit in the great war? help pls i'm confused right now..xD
-
Thanks ReDDragon for the complete list ^^
I´ll probably buy the POP and the WCF sets, maybe Sengoku DX, but I preffer collect only a few figure lines.
-
Wow that buggy looks so fukn awesome i have no words for it. I love the glm line! wheb i get crock n moria ill probably love the dx line aswelll.
-
YIKES. I got a response from amiami, they just sent me an invoice for boa and franky, so I'm guessing that's a silent 'no' to being able to combine my order. Total is 18740 JPY for boa and franky with shipping. Comes to $222 USD.
I am officially not collecting large POPs anymore unless I can get some insane shipping discount (that's the only reason why I'm getting WB and Jinbei, HS 50% sale). Paying that much for shipping is ridiculous to me and if I felt like I could get away with it, I would cancel Franky with amiami and just get him at otakon or something. I know everyone has their breaking point, but this is it for me. 6800Y to ship, that thing better be made of friggin' gold. I feel that now I will not like Franky no matter what because of his cost, which is sad.
I totally agree with you, coral, that there can be no more buying sets that seem 'cheap.' It seems there's no such thing anymore, especially with this exchange rate.
On a similar note, I don't think there's ever been a better time to quit some POPs with Banpresto raising the bar like this.
-

Well i believe its based on the marineford arc only as seen here :
!
-
The shipping price really bothered me because I thought EMS wasn't necessary and Amiami had tighter restrictions on SAL size. Unless I'm mistaken?
-
Yup sensui, looks like you were right about the Lucci+Kaku set:
"ワンピース ハイスペックカラーリングフィギュア5 / 2011年3月第4週 / スタンダード"
"One Piece Hi Spec Coloring Figure 5 - March 4th 2011 - Standard"
Woohoo, now I know what I look for when placing pre-orders. |D Thanks to redon and RedDragon for their great updating as usual.
–---
Those cute little Admiral keychains are part of the same set as the Lucci and Croc and such coming out this November. The Deforme Figure Keyfolder - Power User - Marines set? I think. That set is looking gooood.
-
Well i believe its based on the marineford arc only as seen here :

Yeah thats right thx…but on that picture the back is not crossed like on the DX figure...anyways
-
Well, we got to self-control on our purchase =( Have you even think of how messy your room will look like in the future if you collect all sorts of line? :blink:
The thought of that makes me stick to only P.O.P and MBHHaha! That's why I only collect POPs and WCFs. I'm ocd about my OP hobby and I can't collect stuff from random product lines like GLMs,High-Specs,etc. Everything has to be along the same scale or I can't buy it. And yes, it's a sickness I've lived with for a while. :happy:
-
I have no problem with buying from different sets.
It's when I have a Chopper without a Robin or vice versa when it becomes an annoyance. This is half the reason I'm glad there isn't a Chopper GLM yet.
