To be honest I don't like bothering Crease, especially for just one small figure
One Piece Collectibles v.7 Main Discussion - "The never-ending POP alts"

-
Wasn't Archonia also doing pre-orders for them? Now that people got from Playasia they might let you have theirs?
-
I can't promise I will be fast buying them but… if you put your orders in for Vol.11, I will get them when I see them cheap.
-
Ugh, looks like I might not get my WCFs from Play-Asia….grrr.
At least hobby-search finally decided to ship my musketeer luffy.EDIT: Crease, you should definitely put me on that list.

Nice review cyber. The stone Roman was funny.
I'm happy the WCFs don't interest me that much. Bellémere, Nami and Nojiko maybe but it wont bother me if I miss them.
But anyways, I got my package… a week ago actually so it's high time to review it! I'm gonna do lots of nit-picking and picture-spamming so beware! ^^/
[hide]I got Will of D Luffy and some Chopper stuff as a birthday present for my sister.
I bought one of those Chopper-speakers and a figure that I belive my
sis is going to use in her plays. She turns 10 next week and I can't wait to see her
face when she gets 'em! Heehee I think I'm more excited about
her birthday than she is. U
Now to the main point: My Will of D Luffy! So much expetations! I bet it's
gonna be better, bigger and more-original-posing than my GLM, which I of
course like too, but collectors always look for something to add to their
collections, and there'll always be something better out there than what you have and you must get it, right?
Pointless fact: the box is bigger than GLM Sanji's and Sanji's box is bigger than vol.#1 Luffy's. :silly:
But lets open it:
… I think this would fit in Sanji's box. Insides reveal, a huge waste of space!
It's so fun to open the boxes alone. There he is! LUFFYY~!
Looking good! Though I found it odd that the plastic was just an open bag, on previous figures it was at least taped shut.Hey, wait a second… I haven't even taken Luffy out of the plastic but I think something is strange. Hmmm?
WHAT THE-! That is soo unnatural, it looks like his back is broken! Nobody stands leaning their back so far like that! o__Oinhale Maybe it looks different when it's out of the bag… yeah, i'm sure-
WHAT THE HELL IS THIIS O__0;;
TOO FUNNY i cant take this seriously anymore BWHaHAHAhaha XD
OMG Luffy why do lean forward and backward at the same time??
That isn't even POSSIBLE for human-
OH RIGHT.
But still, you'd think sculptors, artists, would know human anatomy. So
many male figures support this weird hip-thrust it feels like it's intended.
Maybe they think it's fanservice? Like, women must have huge boobs and
tease the viewers with them, men need to shove their crotch to our faces?
It's a mystery.
And here I thought GLM Luffy was standing kinda sturdy…
The Will of D is very orange and the hand holding the hat is too close to his face… Luffy looks like he's trying to hide his face from
the camera! :´D "Uh-huh, ya ain't gonna take pictures of me!"
Hat has no chances against GLM hat. :< And why is it so bent?
"What the hell?"
The D Luffy also has quite noticable lines from casting.
So many actually that it was almost too easy to do this "failures of The D figure"-compilation
Compared to GLM
Sunburned scar vs. nice smooth skin?
Gah, that heel looks so terrible. But the other one- mmm lovely.
Toes and… what are those? Wood carvings?
Haha, okay it's not that bad. The lines only look bad, you don't feel them
when you touch the figure.
After I recovered from first shock I realised it's quite nice figure.
The face. Is. Beautiful. The eyes are so sharp, no strange red on the lips...
This is why I wanted it in the first place.
When you compare GLM to the D, The D wins in the face department by miles.
Although I like GLM's face shape more I think it's lacking because it's so messy. D Luffy looks nice, they both have a "feel" to them. Like the difference between anime and manga.
GLM's head is very round and cute, it's almosta like a child Luffy, compared to the D at least.
D Luffy has a really pointy nose if you look at it from an certain angle… And I can't help but see it like this (visual aids below):
[hide]LOL XD I couldn't help it! I mean look at those ears [hide][/hide][/hide]When you look at them from afar you can't tell if there are mistakes or lines or whatever. The Will of D looks good, apart from the "spine-problem". And sometimes even that isn't noticeable at all.
(Now I have all three variations! Huge grin+hat on, smile+hat on the back+vest open, angry+hat on hand+vest closed)
Andd… that's it. Hopefully you enjoyed this little rant-Imean review.[/hide]
Btw, how does one use hairdryer to reshape figures? Just blow 'till they're movable and shape it like you want? -

Awesome review. I really enjoying it.
Using hair dryer is exactly like u said. -
GLM Luffy compared to Will of D Luffy still out classes him 100%. Luffy's hair is NEVER done right. GLM is the ONLY figure that has gotten it right, and will of D Luffy's hair is just TOO bulky. Glad I didn't get him.
also, my will of D Garp hardly looks good at all compared to the amazing POP xD
-
If you pre-order from power anime do you pay up front?
-
Gjork, thank you so much for that review!
I think the model looks cool enough, but the massive ammount of pictures really lets us enjoy (or hate) the model also! Cool.
I just orderd my Ace and am waiting for my Jinbe and Blackbeard to arrive, due to their size it was more that worth the wait.
Still doubting… Shall I try to complete the WB Crew...
-
@Reckless:

Yes,you have to.
(that sucks)
-
I just opened my Super soul modeling seven warlords. My extra was doflamingo. Why do they give you 8 anyway? I though it would be Croc.
Just some quick snaps:!
!

!I don't even know how you use jinbei's "stand". If you use it it lifts him up? Not sure how to fit kuma's on either.
-
Wasn't somebody looking for the Doflamingo from that set (Icel maybe?)
-
I'm willing to sell it. As you can see I didn't open it (the pastic), so its new.
-
I think you will be able to sell it! The set is cool, but I don't like the paint job that much, bar that it is a really nice way to complete a set of Shichibukai fast! Thanks for sharing.
-
@Reckless:

You can refer to my pics if you want for the stands, I do think you have to force Kuma's quite a bit to fit though….Jinbei should go right on:
!
-
Oh you actually have to snap that stuff on? I just thought it rested against the figure. They pretty much stand on their own though. I guess I'll try it when I get home. Thanks
-
I felt so sorry for that Bon-Chan on playasia that I had to buy him ;-;
Dammit. He's an awesome char! And was the hero of ID.
I woulda got the leftover Luffy from last month too but they were charging twice the price for shipping.
Considering they give you a box able to fit about 3 or 4 wcf in anyways. They then fill said box with polystyrine. Enough to probably equal the weight of another wcf. Just a rip.
You can stay there Baratie Luffy. Stay there in shame.

OMG THATS AWESOME XD

It must have taken you a hell lot of time to do it but… want mooooaaaar. -
I don't know If I should get the last Mr.2 from Play Asia and then get Buggy and Mr.3 from Archonia… I don't know if that would be a good deal.
-
Nice review cyber. The stone Roman was funny.
Thanks =3 I couldn't decide to use the Stone Dalek too. Why is it that Doctor Who is making more stuff to go with OP merch than OP figure makers are? XD
-
Got Mr.2 + Two random hats hoping to get, at least, Luffy's or Buggy's.
-
I can't promise I will be fast buying them but… if you put your orders in for Vol.11, I will get them when I see them cheap.
So would that be orders for a full set or individuals as well?
-
The bust figures stolen factories are out and about…..these are the better pictures I can find and the watermark is pretty intrusive....but overall they look too small and not good to me:

Finally got my SQ Boa from Crease today, also got some more DB capsules I think, will look forward to opening them.
I like the look of those busts too.

You have both POP Garp and Will of D Garp? Is POP really that much better? I've ordered both because I couldn't decide which one I want but I still haven't got mine yet. One is at the local post office (Will of D Garp which just arrived yeserday) and POP is overseas with dad.
POP may look good with my other POPs but Will of D should look nice when the DX Admiral arrives….. guess I might have to keep both regardless.... LOL
-
Still doubting… Shall I try to complete the WB Crew...
You have to complete WB crew!!! I was planning on doing that but now I missed out Vista… :sad:

Shocker Toys was there too and displayed their plans for the "Anime Spotlight" 6" action figure line. One Piece only has one slot in Series 1 and it's Robin in her Ms. All Sunday outfit. They're planning to divided it up between other series like Bleach, Naruto, Death Note, hell even Dr. Slump. We're probably not going to see much from One Piece. I didn't have much faith in them after seeing those Mallows but it still sucks that these guys are the only ones with the license to produce toys for North America.
-
The figure will probably suck but I still want that Robin.
-
Did they use UPS's image for that Robin? Looks like it XD I'm pretty sure there is something against using people's fanart for selling
But yay Robin I suppose. Dunno what these guys do so.
-
The funniest thing is though that this company is known for being kinda shitty and slow so I guess Funi just didn't care.

One Piece figuarts in America?

I do :) They are really nice !
I should take pictures… 1 hour later Look, I did ^^; (just a few cause it is late here).!
There were two Chopperini and I chose to buy this one.
Badasser in my opinion :P

Robita is definitly my favorite of the serie.
So cool and so sexy~

I picked this Luffy since he was the most mafioso looking of the two.
He looks a bit like Croc :P
