None of those guys would look absolutely fabulous in a glass case littered with imitation roses.
Vista will.Vista wins. :ninja:
Now I'm definitely getting the Vista POP, if only to display him in this very manner.
Definitely going to get Marco, Vista and Perona. Not too excited about shanks and law though. Maybe ill get shanks too to complete strong edition. But he is out of place.
Anyone else notice this? On the vista one it looks like he may be able to actually put those swords in the sheaths on each side.
What do you think?
Hmm im really happy that i dont collect P.O.P's, they have way too many charactors i like and i would end up spending waaaayyy too much money lol.

It looks like it. I'm expecting a rose bouquet just to put it in one of his hands, then.
yeayyy..!! I'll buy perona..:wub:
Law and Marco are cool. Going to pass on Law though, I am happy with GL version. Haven't read the Whitebeard war in depth yet, so I am not sure getting Marco or Vista until after Xmas when I get caught up. Will be getting at least 1 Persona for a friend, maybe 2. Not interested in Shanks- got enough figure I am happy with.
Wow, wasn't expecting Vista. I can somewhat see the reasoning since there probably isn't any other time in the upcoming story where Vista and Marco will be featured again. But I would've preferred Moria since we don't know how much more he'd be shown later on the series.
I'm still planning on picking up all, since I like collecting POPs. (Though with the increase in POP output the past year and looks to continue next year, shelf space is getting limitedโฆ)
I was planning on displaying Whitebeard, Ace v1 and Shanks v1 together when Whitebeard is released, but now that 2 other WB Pirates are coming, I guess I'll keep Shanks in the random ungrouped POP section on my shelf. He will still have to wait for his crew to get their own POPs.
And I'm not planning on displaying SW Shanks with my SW Strawhats. He's not even in the movie/manga. I would've preferred SW Heavy point Chopper instead.
Time skip Strawhats can wait until we find out their new skills. Can't really release a Franky without knowing his secret weapons!
Only one I want is Perona. O_O
Ugh.
After getting lost in the woods in a ski resort today for hours, I'd thought I'd be in for a nice surprise from Megahouse when I came home.
Honestly? They make fucking Vista before the rest of the Admirals? Doflamingo? Moria? Buggy? I can think of 1,000 other different characters that should have gotten one instead. Hell, if they wanted to make another division commander to go with Marco, Diamond Jozu would have been a much better choice. But they chose Vista who is just one step above being a fodder character? What the hell is Megahouse smoking? I hope he sells terribly, which will probably happen anyway.
I'm okay with Law getting one since it was bound to happen, though he looks like shit. I'm happy about the Perona, but it's obvious that they expanded her boobs. I'm liking it overall though.
Really pissed off about another Shanks and Marco, but not nearly as much as the Vista.
Guess what this means? You guessed it, the next POP that will be announced will be Strong World Ace.
shakes head
Hmm im really happy that i dont collect P.O.P's, they have way too many charactors i like and i would end up spending waaaayyy too much money lol.
Definitely not for non working people! No problems for me, i dont overspend and buy different kinds of one piece just the 1/8 Megahouse POP figures The only problem is space.
LOL they can only release so many at a time. Your admirals will come sooner or later. Dont worry about it.
Vista will be a huge box, similar to franky ><
I'm definately getting Shanks, Perona and Law. I didn't like the first Shanks POP so this second is a must.
I hope I don't miss out on pre-orders. I'm tempted to order a couple of extra of each in case someone else misses out.
Ugh.

wowโฆ I actually agree with this. What the heck. These characters over Buggy? I feel like this is a grave injustice. I can see Perona. She's a girl, and she reappeared with zoro. But vista? Shanks strong world? I love me some shanks, but really? I almost thought it was Fullbody with the first picture that wasn't very clear. It fit better with the obscure character choices. Law looks awful. GLM kicked his ass.
Admirals would have made so much more sense. Aokiji is just sitting there along on my self with smoker as company.
I feel like with POPs since there are so many people can be more selective about who they choose, especially since other figures are coming up that rival them. So you'd think they'd choose hardcore fan characters. Maybe they went this route because no one else seems to be making the WB pirates?
I'm glad for all those Marco fans, though. There you go.
I also feel that if they're making SW shanks a SW Ace is inevitable. And LOL at the prospect of there being more Ace POPs than Robin, Sanji, and Franky. It just feels wrong, and you all know I love ace hardcore.

Look at that blue flame on Marco's hand. Freaking awesome. Cant wait for Vista's complete version. I have no complains. My wish is granted.
we want more NEW POPS!!!!
haha..
VISTA and MARCO made my dayโฆ i'm looking forward the day.. i'll be holding their boxes and figures and taking a picture of them!!!
Hmmm, the only one that really throws me for a loop is the Vista. Didn't realize he was that popular.
Not interested enough to get any of these guys. I've got this thing against having too many figures . . . and my definition of "too many figures" is probably a lot lower than most of you think . . .
My friend's over the moon at the Law announcement, though.
And LOL at the prospect of there being more Ace POPs than Robin, Sanji, and Franky. It just feels wrong, and you all know I love ace hardcore.
That's true. There's 2 each of those MAIN characters, yet Ace will have 3 since that SW Ace is definitely coming. (And 4 if you count that rehash of the first Ace POP as one.)
I'm nowhere near being an Ace hater, but that's just ridiculous.
I almost want to get a Vista POP now just to smash it.
Hmmm, the only one that really throws me for a loop is the Vista. Didn't realize he was that popular.
He's not.
BRB, punching babies
But they chose Vista who is just one step above being a fodder character?
fodder
Dueled Mihawk to a standstill in midst of war
Does not compute.
It must be your tendency to punch babies getting in the way of your reasoning.
I think you meant "obscure side character" instead of "fodder", unless you're misunderstanding the definition of fodder.
is marco 5300 or 6300 yen? i cant read the first number next to him
Thanks for the pics, Aohige!
Man, they all look fantastic!
I said one step above being fodder, it's right in the sentence you quoted.
And so? Compared to what the Admirals, Doflamingo and Moria did during the war, who deserve a POP 1,000 times more, he did nothing. Hell, even Oars Jr would be more deserving of a POP.
is marco 5300 or 6300 yen? i cant read the first number next to him
6300yen
why marco (release April) already coloured and have price tag while Vista (release in March) still uncoloured and doesn't have price yet
I don't understand why everyone is getting upset about Vista. If you don't like him then don't get him. The rest of the Shichibukai, Buggy, Kidd, and the Admirals will get their own POPs in the future so it's just a matter of having patience.
We need to just be happy that One Piece is getting such awesome models in the first place.
Ugh.

I agree too.
But I'm more pissed that they haven't announced a Rayleigh POP or Sabo CB
But the coloring for Law and Macro look awesome.
I'm definately getting Shanks, Perona and Law. I didn't like the first Shanks POP so this second is a must.
I hope I don't miss out on pre-orders. I'm tempted to order a couple of extra of each in case someone else misses out.
Yup this Shanks definitely looks better than the first.
Is there going to more more POP announcements this month?
Vista is great and all (he is by far my favorite of the WB commanders), but really does not need POP treatment at this point. It seems really strange he would get one before Joz too. Is Vista really more popular than Joz?
And for shame on all of you who think a Perona POP is acceptable. Fodder villain go away please
i love every new POP as long as they are not repeat, especially i don't want another mugiwara crew again
Is there going to more more POP announcements this month?
I don't think the next major expo is until February (Wonder Festival), but I could be wrong. They'd likely have more new POPs then, just like they did at this year's.
I am VERY sad that Akainu and Kizaru weren't announced, or Moria or Doflamingo, but I couldn't EVEN be happier xD EVERYONE will now be butt hurt for the rest of the year and next year now that Law is getting a POP. I'm SO HAPPY HE IS UFNLSKDNFLKSDNFL OMG. Also, Perona GET! My sis will get Marco and Vistaโฆ I mean I would want Vista myself, but since sis is getting him.. I won't xD
also... damn you Megahouse I KNOW I don't need another Shanks D: but he looks so GOOD
also, now that Megahouse is making characters that are odd, MAYBE Sengoku will come out!! FFFFFFFFF a girl can hope now!??? RIGHT?????
Maybe it's just me but the main reason I buy one piece figures is because one piece has tons of interesting/unique characters. I don't really buy or get excited about an aokiji or luffy figure, but someone like hacchi or ivakanov or moria I will always buy.
To me it doesn't really matter how major the characters role is, just how interesting and unique they are. This is why I don't have a single portrait of pirates of the base crew. Personally law seems like a really boring figure. I understand why people love him in the manga.. but he doesn't make a good figure to me. Vista and perona are my favorites of this round. Marco I will probably grab too.
is marco 5300 or 6300 yen? i cant read the first number next to him
Will probably be around 5000 Yen at AmiAmi. Anyone have any idea when it will up for preorders?

Who gives a hoots about what other people think. LOL. Just get what you like.
OHGODMARCOYESSSSSSSSS
I'm sorry, I'm in his fanboat :(
That'll probably the the only one I'm getting. It will be just my luck that Marco and Perona are the last ones released and right when its convention time @_@ We shall see.
Though I cannot beleive Vista. Just can't. That's total bullshit. Admirals, Dofla, and hell Shiryuu deserves it more >____>
Here is hoping this is just the first half of the year for POPs @_@
man so much Vista hate! His manly hairy chest is enough for me to want him.
I agree too.
But I'm more pissed that they haven't announced a Rayleigh POP or Sabo CB
Well, I kind of wonder if Sabo will ever get a CB release. It's just so strange that Luffy and Ace got released as a set. I mean, they're even in one package. Really, really makes me wonder if they'll even consider Sabo. Perhaps after Luffy/Ace gets released, if they sell well. The original CBs didn't, if I recall correctly. You could still pick them up a year or so later for original price. Another possibility is that he'll get a CB release after he reappears in the main storyline, though who knows how many years that will take.
I don't know. I just feel that if he was going to get a release, it would have been with Ace and Luffy, especially given that they were designed to reenact the brothers "drinking" scene. I hope Megahouse will prove me wrong, though.
They could be waiting for the anime to get to Sabo before they make something for him, he hasn't been shown in color at ALL yet.
He is a super important character to Luffy and Ace. And he's a cute kid, I think he'll get one when he shows up in the anime, maybe the second half of next year.
Love Vista, Marco and Pellona!
But Law donยดt like me.
Law Banpresto (Grand Line Men) VS Law MegaHouse (POP):
!
WOW. I traditionally dislike POPs but that is one fiiiiiiine Law. Aw man. Marco's not too shabby either, though I never like it when they include the weird gelatin-like flame effects.
Looks like Perona fans got their wish x)
Thanks for the pics!
โ-edit
oh nvm wut. close up of law's face makes him look weird. .-. Also, LOL^ at the close up crop of GLM Law conveniently missing the other finger on his hand held upright.
I think this is Megahouse's way of making up for Perona not joining the crew.
Not there was ever a snowballs chance in hell of that happening.
I think that megahouse is going with this line because there's not much out there with them in it, like another person stated.
Woot~~~~
my wish came true~~ Oh YEAH! Perona!!
marco is a must get for me too.. not sure of vista at the moment.. might just pre-order him and wait till i see better pics of him.
Not going to get LAW POP as he looks like a zombie to me.
Wow. Looking at that Law comparison, the POP version seems way too lanky; practically anorexic.
@The:
And for shame on all of you who think a Perona POP is acceptable. Fodder villain go away please
I'm not a fan of Perona or anything but she deserved a P.O.P. She was basically the right hand of a main villain, she's a unique character that warrants having a figure, and she had some friendly association with the Straw Hats as of late.
All I know is she deserved one a hell of a lot more than Vista. Marco was the only significant member of the Whitebeard pirates that deserved one imo.
sees POP choices
throws poo
Carry on with the celebrations -3-
Maybe they are waiting for timeskip Buggy before making a POP for him. Buggy the Yonkou
Yay Perona! No Buggy (cries).
Anyone looking for a Luffy strawhat, Jump shop is selling these. They're not the ultra-rare handmade lottery ones but they are pretty nice.

@OneMan, thanks for those vids of the game center. I picked up some tips. I love how the guy used the box to push the other one in. Sometimes they tape up the openings of the box or put the whole thing in plastic so you can't jam the arm of the crane in like that.
I had a look at a catalog that's available for wholesale traders for next year's releases after the new GLM and DX figures. Guess what? No more game center prizes sold to shops except Panson soft vinyl figures and plush. Eeeek!
I'm not a fan of Perona or anything but she deserved a P.O.P. She was basically the right hand of a main villain
A main villain who still has yet to get a POP. Do you really not see whats wrong with that picture? She is a fodder side villain that Oda brought back for a couple extra pages for shits and giggles.
If being the "right hand" of a main villain and then being briefly brought back into the story is all it takes to be considered important enough to get a POP then why don't we just give Hacchi a POP? Or Jango? They would make just as much sense.
I said one step above being fodder, it's right in the sentence you quoted.
He's one step above a mob character, not one step above a fodder.
There's a huge difference.
His relevance to the story exposure is what's in question, not his strength.
The word "fodder" is not what you think it means. It comes from cannon fodder. Essentially a Federation red shirt.
I have no qualms about the latter part of your post, it's purely your opinion and should not be disputed.
Wasn't arguing that in the first place, everyone has the right to have bad tastes. (j/k)
