Anyone who got burned by 1up paypal now has 180 day to file a claim. So 6 months.
Hasn't it been way more than 6 months since he stopped taking orders, though?

I forgot to ask, do you think MH will show the BB girls and Corazon/LAw colored at wonfes next month?
Do you guys think MH will also announce re-release? I've noticed they didn't re-release anything OP related recently, or did i missed something?

is this something new?
1Up took money for my last PO over 18 months ago now….......so it's long gone........I think Max was right though, I don't think TGLS has been active at all in 2015, although I could be mistaken........

I've got Perona for sure, still twisted to get Rebecca, she looks like a little girl with big boobs here, Nami looks like she want some xD
Guys, this may be good news. According to the POP Blog, there has been an announcement of a Version 2 for the POP Sailing Again Luffy. No pictures yet.

Who knows but if it was Dressrosa edition he would have been called Lucy.

Oh that's exciting!! And about time!! Apparently it's due for release in October so technically should go up for PO next week!! We really needed a new Luffy, and I imagine it will be based on his Dressrosa appearance like the FAZ:
I need a Luffy for my Dressrosa shelf. Feels empty without the main protagonist…........I'll feel complete with him and Sabo..............now looking forward to more new Sailing Again's in 2016!!
The new POP Luffy had -better- be Lucy! It's a pretty ridiculous and glaring omission that we have two Dressrosa Laws, two Rebeccas, and characters like Bellamy but no figure of Luffy to fight alongside Law.

Two Rebecca's? There is always the FAZ line, though the Lucy FAZ is just the new world Luffy re-done basically. Same pose.

I think Max is refering to the CB Rebecca…........I agree, it would be nice for this to come with the cape and an alternate head with beard/helmet so you can choose to pose as Gladiator Lucy or Luffy from later in the arc.........
but we all know Megahouse and how lazy they are.........for all we know it may just be a slighting updated sculpt of the first Luffy SA.................
I hope they will do another strawhat line V.2 in that case, and most importantly, a good Luffy!
I think I said a little while back that Megahouse had run out of characters to do, so the most obvious choice now was for them to re-do the strawhats as these would always be popular.
They started with Mugiwara Ver.1 & 2 of Nami and pre-timeskip Zoro (Not to mention the hoards of LIMITED Choppers that we're still getting). They they decided to re-release all the Muguiwara CB's, along with a few new additions.
Now we're getting Nami, Robin & Hancock bikini versions. Of the top 10 most popular characters it's Sanji who desperately needs some Love now!!!
They can always drop a Gladius POP, I won't complain about that ~___~
After 3, I think, long years, I FINALLY got the OP figure that's been at the top of my wishlist.

DPCF Croc is mine!!!! I got a nice deal, I am super happy… I just got home from having surgery yesterday so it's gonna be awhile before I'll feel like getting him out and displayed but I AM SO SUPER HAPPY >3<
How have Megahouse ran out of characters?
Buggy
Nojiko
Coby
TS Burgess
Kyros
Doffy Pirates
Baby 5
Sai
That was even without thinking too hard.

I think they don't wanna risk it with unpopular aside of Buggy.
This is at least what i think,megahouse thinks of making more limited exclusive figures,and not only one piece but also other anime series like gintama.
How have Megahouse ran out of characters?
Buggy - 34th
Nojiko - 100th+
Coby - 37th
TS Burgess - 100th+
Kyros - 31st
Doffy Pirates (most popular after Sugar was Senior Pink - 42nd)
Baby 5 - 55th
Sai - 100th+That was even without thinking too hard.
And where do those characters feature on the last popularity poll…....? (i've added them above)................Ok, so MH haven't run out of characters, but they're run out of characters that would sell in the quantities they require to justify production..........
They've stretched themselves with Eustass Kid and Killer (18th & 61st), Bon Clay (20th), Cavandish (27th), Rebecca (29th) and Koala (30th). Sugar (39th) and Violet (45th) were a big gamble, seems it paid off for one (the smaller, cheaper one), but not the other.
Going beyond 50th, like they did with Bellamy doesn't make sense financially for Megahouse........they only have a handful of viable original characters left. Hence the Luffy Ver.2
Edit: Doesn't look like there will be a POP PO this month, unless Luffy Ver.2 is a LIMITED

PO in August for an October release sounds fishy to me though!! Usually a 6 month wait, not 2….....
22 DAYS UNTIL WONFES!!
I wonder if it's too late to come back to punk hazard characters? they might try to milk it, and there is upcoming arcs, but for now redo the strawhats.

What figure is that?

Pretty sure thats the dynamic action Luffy FAZ, don't remember exactly what it is called.
What figure is that?
It's the 5th Anniversary Luffy & Law set, which hasn't gone up for order yet.
Do you love staring at him in the box on the shelf?
HA XDDDD No, I am still very much not a MISB collector ~___~ He's really heavy, and I need to reorganize some shelves to get him to fit. I had my first rib removed and some muscles trimmed, so my left arm is pretty painful still (It's honestly not as bad as I feared it would be)… So I must stare at him in his box for a little longer

Don't know what hapened to you but I wish you quick and painless recovery !

Damn you got pwned!? Muscle trimming, jeez. I feel you, at least you're dealing with it well. Soon you will be able to have him out, so I know you're looking forward to that
Had a bit of fun with GLM WB pirates.
Beautiful set, which flames are those?

Looks like the Tamashii Flame effects…..I have the red one.

Yeah, Tamashii flame red and blue.
Seen in this picture of my haul from last week.
!
I used the left-over flames on Sabo btw.
Also, I ran out of space in my detolfs so I converted one of my bookshelf into a half-glass display.
!
I really like the flush look to it, when I move into a house and convert a room to a library, I think I'm going to adopt this and make figure cases built-into library.
Ohh, that's nice. I wish I could do that with my collection someday.
Nice to see that CreatorxCreator Kuzan's box is small, I was afraid it'd be huge.
New FAZ Luffy & Law looking pretty solid…........9,936 yen a bit steep for me though..........

This FAZ looks tempting but man the price….
Does anyone besides me think that VAH Sabo's face looks really demented in the official photos?

He looks freaking awful!! Especially posed without his hat…......it's officially put me off the whole VAH line.........especially since Dragon ball is airing again and I've started getting the SHF line of those.........
10 days until Wonder Festival!! I'm really hoping we get something solid from Megahouse. I'm not interested in the Nami or Mihawk VAH's, but have high hopes for the Luffy Ver.2 POP!!
I was wondering that it's really strange no Gorosei action figure had been released yet.
I was wondering that it's really strange no Gorosei action figure had been released yet.
Why would Gorosei get action figures? We've never seen them fight.
If you just mean any figure in general, yeah, I don't think there's any, not even among small ones.

Yeah I meant figure in general.
People would likely buy all 5 of them, so it's pretty much a good deal.
Got my Zoro and brook CBR today, they both looks nice!

Now i own all the straw's children version ^_^
God damn WCF is getting a pain in the arse to track down, newer sets rarely appearing on Mandarake or Rakuten anymore. History of Sabo was bad enough but I've had zero luck with Punk Hazard now, really beginning to bother me.

I feel your pain, the punk hazard set sold out where I buy them on release instantly. Haven't been actively searching but there are some WCFS that I have yet to see anywhere.
I remember those times when WCF sets appeared first in Play Asia at the beggining of the months iirc and I had to wake up earlier to grab the ones I wanted.

Believe it or not, but I got vol. 35 off of ebay about a month ago. $68 shipped (EMS). Couldn't believe my luck. I think the next set the guy sold went for over $100. Banpresto has definitely reduced their normal stock amounts by at least half, and whenever they have four of one figure in a set (Vergo and Momo here and Hack in the Sabo set), it's harder to get a complete set and always more expensive.

Fun times…..can't say I exactly miss it but fun times!

I just picked up vol 35 while I'm here in Japan, paid about 10,000 yen which is irregularly high for WCF recently from OP….but I checked pricing on auctions and figure stores relatively and can only assess it must be one of those sets where they can't make too many complete sets from a whole box (bad ratio).
Being here in Japan is really a bummer for collectors...on the times I did visit figure shops and Book Offs etc.....I am constantly reminded how the OP fever has completely died in Japan.....they just over merchandised everything to hell and people just don't see the value in new/old figures anymore unless they are the most patient/hardcore collectors throughout the last years.
I must say, it is a great time to pick up merchandise in general with the exchange rate and recessed pricing. All sorts of figures from the rarest to popular I've seen just can't fetch any sort of real premium anymore. I didn't really buy that much since I'm just collecting certain lines like WCF/POP and some Banpresto stuff I find attractive most the times (excluding my kids and my new love for tsum tsums)....but man temptations a plenty with the pricing right now. Will probably be putting up some MISB POPs that I have stashed away here in Japan for cheap also soon for members first before I send it out to auctions.
Fond memories of APF collector forums as I walk through various parts of Japan, it's cool to know what it all once was when we were part of that craze....kinda something to tell your grand kids about to laugh in the future.
The next nightmare to track down!
SO HERE WE ARE FOLKS!! LESS THAN 35 HOURS UNTIL THE DOORS OF WONDER FESTIVAL OPEN!!
As Sensui so aptly put "OP fever has completely died in Japan…..they just over merchandised everything to hell"..............so is there any hope for us.........??? Is it even worth creating a POP wanted list??
I like to think so….......so without anything further to do!! Here are my Megahouse WF predictions/desires!!
POP Sailing Again Monkey D. Luffy Ver.2!! - This has to be the big reveal right?! It's already been announced, so I have high hopes for it!! It will be great to finally ditch the current one (with those horrible knees!!)
LIMITED POP Corazon & Law**(Painted)** - It's going to be awesome to see this in color…..perfect timing as well for anime watchers, so a lot of hype for this one.........still unsure whether I really want them though. :ninja:
**LIMITED POP Robin & Hancock Ver.**BB (Painted) - I've put these 2 together, as to be honest, a long with Nami I don't even consider these OP figures anymore….......they are just Bikini Warriors figures with the heads of One Piece Characters.........let's face it......:getlost:
Possible new characters (In order of popularity from 5th poll):
Sailing Again Smoker
Sailing Again Kyros
Sailing Again Caesar Clown
Sailing Again Urouge
Sailing Again Basil Hawkins
Sailing Again Baby 5
Sailing Again X-Drake
Sailing Again Tashigi Possible exisiting characters (In order of popularity from 5th poll):
Sanji 10th LIMITED Ver. To be honest….......it's not a lot to get excited about..............then you've got the VAH series. Nami and Mihawk...............:wassat:............after seeing Sabo i'm not going to comment here...........
Bandai Tamashii may surprise as with some new stuff, but having seen the finish on the latest 5th Anniversary Luffy I'm not going to get excited. Let's just say the title of this thread says it all!!
Anyway!! Hope there is something for people to get excited about!! As always I will be here all weekend posting photo's, unless i'm beaten to it!!
