Legato's suggestion has been noted as I mentioned the possibility in the suggestions thread regarding possibly doing a news announcement thread so people's conversations don't get buried in discussion.
@ Legato/Cyber: If you guys need to carry on this debate, please take it to pm before it stretches out further. Would hate for this to drag out since both points have been made and anything further wouldn't serve much purpose.
Those calenders look really good. Too bad I get sick of changing the blocks every day XD Do they work as seperate figures tho?
And shame about the wcf. They do look kinda cheap quality again from the looks of your pics. I suppose it'll be like normal where they look different up close compared to pics.
@ Sensui:
Lol your baby ace looks like he has a mustache from that angle!
Argh….dont like that zoro.
His eyes looking the wrong way.
He suppose to look where he point the gun..........
That Robin was indefinitely post-poned by Bandai a few months ago since they are doing her Timeskip version soon-ish. I guess they thought it would be redundant. They have done the exact same thing with some of the DBZ Kai Figuarts.

Actually they did was announce a Nami too at same time as Time Skips I think XD And still released Chopper so XD And two Aces. Oh welll. I'm sure we'll see them eventually anyways.
wow ace figuarts looks great, so does silvers. but same as anyone, pop is much better(silvers)
any more promo pic of kidd FZ?
Nice haul, I like the Plex Zoro, but as mentioned he looks the wrong way.
The eternal calanders are cool, but I don't really need them for anything :/
I thought i just missed POP rayleigh! phew its just the figuarts
whoa shanks' skin looks different from the rest on that set
And in reality….it really looks VERY off from the rest of them lol....he stands out. =P

Sure they work just fine…...but if you don't put the blocks there....the spaces/indentations will be there and it'll look awkward I think.
@ Sensui:

Heh, better than the normal angle where it looks like there's dirt in his mouth (paint slop lol).
Shanks with Red Hair and Red Skin…...sunburn.....-_-

I would love to get that Sabondy Robin though. I think it captured her near perfect… >.< it's a shame it's delayed.
guys, is it worth to get that p.o.p mild ace & luffy one?
madarake got it for 2500yen now.
2500 for both is a really good deal.
@1Up:

Sure! Im in love with mild Luffy . he´s totally cute, some weeks ago I couldn´t stop staring at him xD And he and Ace look nice together…OK my Ace is playing Emo, he stands with angry face in an corner not a big Ace fan
What delayed or forgotten Robin are you all talking about? any link to a picture?
alright guys thx, i took the plunge and just orded them p.o.p milds ones ! :-P
What delayed or forgotten Robin are you all talking about? any link to a picture?
Roooah!! now I need to complain too! Hope indeed it will get to the shops someday!
But – seriously – I am really happy. We never had such a large choice of figures and never a better.
And since I have been collecting Saint Seiya Myth Cloth figures since the first issue that was realeased many years ago, all I can tell you is that if some collection is working at Bandai, it will focus all their attention and figures will only get better and better. Saint Seiya figures have really and significantly improved from release to release (except for some side characters which seem to have been sculpted by some one-armed assistant). I agree that the first Figuarts releases can't be considered a success (except for Shirohige IMO) but I am very confident and excited with future releases and can't wait to get my hands on all these already preordered one.
So if you have a favourite one, just pray that it won't be released too soon! 
I've got pretty mixed feelings about the figuarts line. Many of them look crap and the quality doesn't seem great, but then they're releasing decent characters and at a faster rate than most other lines. That Chibi Luffy is amazing though!
Bloody UK postal service. Brotherhood still hasn't arrived and now I have to wait until next week when all this Royal wedding bollocks is finished >_<

We aint had any post delivered until today. I kinda doubt we'll get any Sat too.
i had my marco pop delivered today but i was out so i cant pick it up till saterday, i think the royal mail works on saterday?
@1Up:

Yes and no. The post offices are open but for larger deliveries you don't always get on weekends. It usually depens on the Postman tho.
ah ok, maby next week :-(
and p-a taking long with there deliverys now, ugh.
Yeah P-A takes about 3 weeks now for me. Kinda why I'm glad I didn't have to resort to them for Snaps or Figuarts Chopper since once I pay for them I want em… but can't afford to pay for EMS (and both times I used their more expensive UPS deliveries I got nabbed by Customs....IIRC I paid about £37 or so just for Robin and Pimpin Pink Chopper WCFs ages ago. Cus they came to like £17 and got taxed hard on them by customs.
I do not only agree but I think it is a MUST to have a new thread with only the pictures of the newly released/ exposed stuff.
Keep this thread as talking, fangasming and complaining and everyone can link the photo's of the new created thread to this thread anyways. But its much friendlier for other people that do NOT want to see other peoples bitching about certain lines/releases and pages of complaining an fangasming (We know all girls like Ace, Robinchan we know you like Robin and Chopper, We know certain people do not like Figure arts zero, We know WCF new releases look more and more like bootlegs, We know P.O.P are Slow,) .
For the people that do like it can take a look at this thread still :)
We got the space so why not use it? it's not like this thread will die or something :)
Robinchan we know you like Robin and Chopper
Eh…who is Robinchan? If you talk about me, my nick is RobinchEn and I don´t like Chopper. If you want to write about Cybers fondness for those 2, write his name in the right way.
And I agree that a thread for new promo pics etc. would be nice
Look at his Youtube user name :)
That´s Robinchwan xD
Glad I don´t collect WCF except for some Charas I love. But i´m hoping that the 2 Robins have a better quality then Croco.
If I miss POP Rayleigh I´ll buy the Figuarts Zeo Version, it looks promising.

Got a package for the first time in a while. You know, I had and idea. Everything from banpresto, like the GLM, have pegs in their feet so you have to use the huge stands that take up so much room. What if you got some foam board (like the foam that come in packaging) cut it to the size of your shelf and put their pegged feet in there? That would work right? It would look better and make more room in a detolf and you could even decorate the foam. Anybody have any to try it with?

One of the members here used to drill holes into the shelf IIRC. I have a Luffy GLM that I bought from Niaaaaa that just cut the pegs off. That's my fave idea sicne it means you can re-arrange as you see fit loves to re-arrange
My favourite thing about the DragonballxOnePiece figures I have is that you can stand them without the base. I don't know why Banpresto changed it really, its much better that way
hi guys! is the Shanks/Beckman DX still for pre orders??
I thought one member had holes drilled into their plastic risers/riser? That's what I'm going to do… well, when I decide how I want to arrange them. Luckily something good will come of my moving process and I'll have taller ceilings with more shelf space.
About figuarts Ace, I'm really happy they went as far as to give him an extra left arm (below the elbow pad), a different face, and different legs so he can be displayed as normal and as marineford version. I'm also impressed that Marco came with so much extra stuff as well. I was sad that rayleigh doesn't seem to have any whistles and bells, but I'm going to get his POP anyhow (I forego figuarts unless it's ace). I agree with Cyber, it's kind of crazy how Robin is getting gypped as a potential figure a lot of the time.
1Up: LOL SO GLAD you got those mild POPs! I've been eying that ace so I could have an extra and just a day or two ago I decided against buying a second set. Trying to take away the temptation to spend. I have enough trouble buying 1 of the things I do want, 2 seems unnecessary.

I think they've switched back, the DX Marines can stand without their bases.
Although it's really the GLM bases I have a problem with. Why huge ovals? The hexagon shape from the Shichibukai, Marines, and Will of D are much better.
Been a while. Did a new review. This one focusing on Ichiban Kuji with a running joke about how they constantly putting Robin and Chopper stuff together in them. (Usopp too but shhhhh.)
Should have plenty of things in a few weeks to review. At the moment I don't tho.
hi guys! is the Shanks/Beckman DX still for pre orders??
I think there are some places in the USA that are still taking orders. They'll probably pop up places after the release if you're looking to buy it from Japan. I know I got Shanks ordered but didn't manage to get Ben so I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for a member who gets extra or whatnot. XD
ugh I'm super torn with these chibi-arts… they just don't look as nice as nendoroids though. And Boa comes with 4 faces & 2 hair pieces but luffy only with 3 faces and not sure if the hat is removeable? grrr
considering the past few weeks I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Aikoudo, Playasia and maybe even HLJ get them in around release.

really? can you name some places here in the US where i can look for pre orders?? im really a big fan of shanks and i want to get good shanks merchandise.. hehe! thanks for the info :)
haha no problem maggie :-P

yeah drilled holes in plastic risers are the best way. however I don't need mine anymore since I am selling / sold my GLM ^^ haaa~ my poor dad … all the work he did was for nothing ... well, I'm not gonna tell him. ^^''
Hmm think I'll pick up that Strong World Nami and Robin set (in the sweater and shorts) oooo yeah…
I got your message Louis, THANKS SO MUCH! I didn't even know about that new Figuarts Ace, but those pictures look incredible. x)
On another happy note, I picked up crease's package today :D All these goodies oboyboy. __ Lucci stuff galore! I finally have a Galley La Lucci FC with a stand and a card too. <3 Thanks a TON again!
And as usual crease is amazing with his packaging.

High quality WCF volume 14 figures. Looks better than they did in that other pic.

Don't want to be negative but with the quality of the latest 2 volumes (12 and 0), that has to be photoshopped up a bit =P
I just got notice from 7-11 that the Limited Ace POP 1.5 will be ready for pickup on 4/30 at 7-11. So more or less on time.
ah need these ones also!

Those have definitely been touched up. They look too perfect, even by the best WCF standards

HOMG. I really can't wait for this set, another one where I want every character (err, almost every one XD). Looks like they're going back to painting each figure? Though the facial paint looks a bit off. I hope they're more precise like the higher quality early releases. Ace's face looks GREAT (except for the paint thing). They actually made a proper nose for him with nostrils and everything. They got the 'zoku/giro' … err... dunno how to describe it without that 'sound effect' ehehe look in his eyes. That kind of Haki glare. And they seem to be getting very adept at sculpting his hair. Very nice! Though I do think Sentomaru and Oars JR will be the best looking of the set.
I have a question concerning pre-orders. If you do/don't use IRC when pre-order time comes, and you use Mozilla Firefox, do you (also if you do use IRC) use Check4Change?
