One piece WCF vol.29 out today in hk:

Cyber-Robin

I'm liking the designs on the boxes this time. Very nice.

And did you get the ones for me 1up?

1Up

Yep, your ones reserved for u :-)

Cyber-Robin

Awesome sauce. We should be seeing Robin and Olvia in the next few days too. And Chopper next week too. Gonna be a fun time.

Which are the commons in this set? Kung Fu Chopper, Caribou, Keimi, and Hyozou would make sense… but is that what Banpresto went with?

1Up

common ones are: chopper, keimi, shirley and the flying dutchman.

DanMatrix

@saige:

Ha, Dan, I wasn't questioning your camera skills at all, more saying that people shouldn't go off about the quality of a figure from some fast snaps (which I thought looked like a camera phone) in a dark room. ;)

I know, I figured mine aswell give the details. Fast snaps are indeed the best way to describe my skillz.

@1Up:

Really? Shirley and the Dutchman? Those are… interesting... choices!

Cyber-Robin

Yeah Caribou should be the common over Dutchman. Same as the amazon set which had Hancock's ship a common.

DanMatrix

Shirley is the best one from that set, kind of dissapointed theres no Papagu but I guess the first Keimi they did had him. I love that starfish, bought the Keimi FAZ just for him.

Killax

@2D3Y:

Great shots Benhan!! That's a lovely Robin indeed!!!

Killax, get Lucci 1.5. He is an amazing figure. I get what you mean about not knowing what to do with it, but I don't think you should skip him.

Thanks, I will now :D

Also I love the list.

As for wishlists I must say you pretty much covered it.

I actually do think they might do a Fisher Tiger, only way, way in the future…. We shall see :D

2D3Y

@Cyber-Robin:

you think we'll probably get Duval and Foxy? Dunno if I can agree with that lol.

I think I'm the only one with hope that we'll see Hiruluk eventually. He always seems to be the most popular of the flashback chars (Not including the likes of Shanks and the kids.) and it could be an excuse for Megahouse to release another smaller Chopper. Then again they've been sitting on a Bellemere reissue for too long now.

Well, the last list was more on the joke side, but I had never imagined a Vista POP or a Shilliew so soon, so who knows how MH things.

I've been waiting for them to keep with the family members line. Nojiko and Bellemere look great alongside Nami's child, so I really wished they keept on that line. Olvia, Tom and Iceburg, Dr Kureha, Dr. Hiluluk and a young Chopper, Dadan and Nijiko, Zef, etc.

Let's see what MH decides to surprise us with!

Got your last individual Hyouzou! Bummed he's gonna be uncommon though.

Thanks 1UP!

You and I both Dan, loveeeeee the Pappster He's actually being released as a separate WCF in the upcoming Animal Volume (I believe volume 3)

Awesome! I like his glasses, nicer than the standard black sunglasses. The Dec. set is vol.1 and doesn't have him in it so I guess if its vol.3 he's a long way off. I want Megalo and Neptune's whale from vol. 1. Too bad their not the commons.

The Keimi super styling is another good Pap fig.

Conekiller

Really, the only POPs I'm hoping for are:
Buggy, First appearance, I never liked the green markings on his face, and the Marineford outfit is far less flashy.
Horn Point Chopper
Scratchmen Apoo
Sailing Again Keimie
Sailing Again Vivi (when we eventually see her in more iconic outfit not scrubbing floors)
Sailing Again Carue (cus I missed the first one)
Re-release Moria cus I missed it the first time.

MaxGoof

You know what character should get some consideration for inclusion in POP?

Hachi.

He's Arlong's second-in-command in the Arlong Park arc, heavily featured in the Sabaody arc, moderately important in the Fishman Island arc, and a member of the Sun Pirates with Jimbei.

Hachi doesn't exactly win many (any) battles, but I sort of feel like he may warrant a POP just for appearing in so many story arcs.

Conekiller

His unique design could make for a really awesome sculpt also! (Was he second in command to Arlong? I though Kurobi was)

Cyber-Robin

There are quite a few chars who have appeared in a few storylines aswell as Hatchi. He'd have a great sculpt I imagine. However all those arms instantly makes me feel he'll be a Mega POP. Which would put people off.

Looks good so far, except for Chopper. He's incredibly messed up.

Chopper? I'm assuming you mean the stripes on his top? Everyone manages to muck them up XD

Coribou is the worst. Look at that bendy Shovel.

I agree when it comes to Caribou. But just look at that Chopper. That poor attempt at giving him REAL LOOKING FUR. His Captain-Morgan-Lookalike mouth. And all those overall errors. :/
Hyouzo definitely my favorite, he would be one of my all time favorite if it wasn't for his ghosty skin :(

Cyber-Robin

Got my WCF set today. Still not sure whether I wanna keep Haredus, Okama and Herculees.

I actually like them. They're a lot better than I initially thought they would be. Perhona and Usopp are both pretty big and I can see them being a problem to fit on with the others. Usopp does have some problems with his stripes (isn't it always the way? Tiny details are fine but stripes seem to baffle Banpresto.
first the girls

Second Usopp and Brook

DanMatrix

Fat Usopp is pretty funny, I'll have to keep an eye out for him on Manda. I don't like Brook's WCF, maybe since he is crouching which is understandable to fit the size but its just weird looking. Nice pics!

Cyber-Robin

Brook is weird. It may sound silly but this Brook just feels dead lol. Usually Brook's figures are so amazing and full of his personality.

Nice Haul Cyber. When we first saw these WCF's I thought they may be the first one's I'd picked up, particulary Perona, Fatsop and Okama Sanji. They do look great by WCF standards, and I hate to mention it again, but i'd rather drop $30 each for them and they come out prototype/painted skin quality than drop half that for something half the quality. Guess it just can't be helped and I really don't want to start another 5 page debate. Just my 2 cents. Real shame…..

Not gonna debate, but I feel you. The difference between the prototype and endproduct always hits me right in the face. Because the prototype makes me go all "OMFG I WANT IT LOOKS SO GOOD" to "Well, shit."

I'm planning to Buy Fatsopp and Hyozou x2. Since Usopp looks particulary shiny, I will try that matt coating on him to see how it effects him. When it comes to Hyozou, I will try to paint his skin myself. Just wanna see if I can reach the looks of prototype, they gonna lose their value, but I don't give a fzuck. xd

really cool i want those rubber bracelet!!!!

DanMatrix

Some quick pics of the Battle Sanji FAZ, he's pretty cool overall. His battle hair is alittle weird looking close up, its kind of mushy looking on his bangs and a couple light black spots on his default head. He comes with 2 additional heads and normal legs. I'm happy with him.

been wondering if anyone has purchased the POP version of bepo?

Raithos

Lol figuarts Zero,
On the topic of figuarts Zero, a FAZ piece that I actually like? impossible. But he got here a few days ago:

[hide]
Weed jacket Jinbe!!!!

I wanted this one for a while since I first saw it and I wasn't disappointed. I don't know why, but FZ tends to do a better job on their larger figures (minus Ace, he's superb). The paint apps and everything are done well all around the figure. There's a bit of orange smudging towards the top of his robe near the left collar that annoys me, apart from that there are no glaring paint mishaps anywhere else, apart from tiny areas where paint wasn't filled in all the way or was off by a quarter of a millimeter etc. (Which is about as good as you can hope for with Figuarts Zero.)

He's wide but not too tall, he gives off the effect of being "large" yet he's small at the same time. He's quite heavy too, a mass of solid PVC. I was surprised at the weight when I got him. His cape just simply stays on his shoulders, it can be removed without trouble. He's the same height as POP Shirahoshi, I won't even bother going into how out of scale each piece is, lol.
Overall I'm very pleased with him. He will be one of the rare, extremely few Figuarts Zero pieces I add to my collection.

You mean the stuffed animal collection version?

That's the only "POP" of Bepo there is.

yes the stuffed version, i would assume it didn't sell well?

Kirjava444

I don't think it did, everyone I've talked to thinks it looks pretty terrible. I agree with them :/

MaxGoof

Does anyone have a Magellan FAZ they want to take scale comparison photos of? He looks far too small in the photos I've seen of him at shows, but the actual box he comes packaged in is enormous. I'm wondering if Bandai got the figure's actual scale right at all?

None of the FAZ are in scale (except maybe the Mugiwara are to each other.)

Awsome glad to see you finally got him, I just love his sculpt, its easily the best figure of him period.

One Piece Manga Calendar 2013 out in Japan!

AlnaJames

I am starting to run out of space with all the leftovers from OP sets like attack motions/stylings/log boxes/half-ages/anichara/figure candy/grandmeister petite etc XD
I also still have 1 full set of that build up Impel Down bandai thing.
And there's MISB Luffy Marineford, Franky Strong World and red Hancock POPs as well…

DanMatrix

I received the IK Girls Kid Shira today and I am dissapointed. The size is pretty small, probaly the same size a GLC Shira would be if Banpresto ever makes one. Was hoping it would be larger, especially when you consider her price. She is very cute and well done but if there is ever a GLC I may bash my head through a wall. My impulse buying strikes again!

I'll take some pics tonight.

Well, I didn't buy her yet (plan to), but that's expectable - in this case you're paying the price for the rarity of this item, not for the quality/size, since it's an extra lottery prize.

I guess so, I paid 6000+1180shipping=7180yen total so about $87usd. Cheapest Ive seen but still pretty expensive for what she is. I should of bought IK Girls Boa instead, would have been cheaper aswell heh.

It doesn't help that I snagged the Shira HOOK for 6000yen and apparantly she is huge. Maybe once I open Kid Shira and all I'll feel better about it. Thanks.

Thats the reason i don't buy sets very often Alina, doubles and I don't collect some characters. I tried selling some of my doubles on Ebay and only sold one Robin Hook for $12.50. My Perona hook sold aswell but the guy never paid even when I opened an unpaid item dispute. :/
