I asked MegaHouse about it about a week ago. They said she's limited to the premium Bandai Japan and premium Bandai Hong Kong web shops, respectively.
Thanks for the info, 1up said he could get some stock, I'm still hoping in it. :sad:

! Wasn't expecting that. Wasn't expecting the delay either :(
! Seriously, I don't know how to feel about it. On the one had it was absolute badassery, on the other omfg Law :'(
! There is no way Oda going to kill off his golden boy like that. It was pretty intense, though; he's got this deadly DF ability, and world-class Haki, and instead he opts to cap Law gangster style to send a message. Loved it. xD
Compete? Bandai is MegaHouse.
! Omfgggggggggg I can't even handle it right now, lol. I require a figure of Doflamingo holding a gun immediately. If that's not a significant moment I don't know what is. But past that, I don't know man it's looking mad grim for Law atm. I hope he pulls something out of his hat (no pun intended), but no really… Oda literally made him bust a cap in his ass, that's nuts. applause I'm not even mad at it, just more like "omg wtf Doflamingo"
Ahhh nice, so the F-Z are out~ I should be receiving my invoice from AmiAmi soon ^^
! Everyone read the newest chapter? Damnnn fuck Doflamingo! He shot Law's ass to death!
You must be new here XD
! Wasn't expecting that. Wasn't expecting the delay either :(
Delay? What delay?
I hope you're not talking about the "omfg no OP till 2014" cause in that case I must repeat myself with "you must be new here XD"
@the:
I would imagine Monet would be under the MAS line before Caesar would. It seems (at least so far) MAS has had a focus on zoans rather than DF abilities as a whole. Monet's design is animal enough to fall under that.
Just curious, anyone know how many new sculpts were revealed at last years mega hobby? I would love some new PH characters - Kinemon, CC, Monet/vergo (i guess) - just seems like they just have a lot on their plate if they are planning on finishing up the Z line lol
So far the only recent female figures not done by Ajiken have been Bonney, (by ATTM) and then Robin Z & Sadie, both of which have been done by original sculptors, so I would be suprised to see MAS take the reigns, but you never know.
In terms of new sculpts, from past expo's, the magic number is usually 8. That includes any repaints, 1.5's, choppers, etc. So I'd like to think we'll see at least 4/5 canon prototypes. Just to put it into perspective, last year we finally saw Franky painted and had a painted Z Chopper, along with prototypes of Law, Sadie, Robin Z, Shanks, Roger, Shiki and Kalifa!! Pretty dang awesome!!
! Everyone read the newest chapter? Damnnn fuck Doflamingo! He shot Law's ass to death!
! Chapter was the bomb!! No way that Oda will kill Law off!! Great to see more of Dellinger, Diamante and to here of Lao G, but what i'm most intrigued about is who is this Kora!!
Thanks for the info, 1up said he could get some stock, I'm still hoping in it. :sad:
No problem. Don't give up hope though!
I can't speak for 1UP, but most shops that want to carry it can still stock it by ordering through the Megahobby/Bandai web shops like last time, but the price point will likely be either at, or above retail value as a consequence of us not getting the discounts we otherwise would going through our conventional distributors.

! Right???! Yeah I figure he won't but Law got messed UP. Probably a gf or motherly figure that Dofla probably killed off? I'm sure we'll have a Law flashback soon enough to explain it

Cora is obviously Corazon, the previous holder of the heart seat.
People in One Piece possibly having girlfriends = you must be new here XD
As expected, AmiAmi invoiced me for FAZ Admirals! YIKES the shipping for 2 of them together is nearly 6k yen… gonna have to split the order!

They all look so, sooooooooooo good. Even though some poses are indeed a bit wonky (like Sengoku or Nightmare Luffy for me), the amount of details is just stunning. Looking forward to them and hoping this line will never stop!
Please, for the love of all things good, give that kinemon a paint job deserving of that pose.
Nightmare luffy is pretty veiny but still really nice. I'm digging that cindry as well. Sengoku is looking pretty interesting too!
(Anyone else think the Zoro one makes it look like he's going super sayin?)

It's crane game prizes, thus their usual size and price. Around 15-18 cm height, 1UP puts them up for $20, they drop to 1000 yen eventually on Mandarake in a few months time.
Am I the only one who doesn't like this Nightmare Luffy over Ichiban Kuji one? Like, they both are really good, but neither is significantly better than the other.
Any news on new pop po ?

20$ only, it's cheap for a 15cm/18cm size oO'
Maybe i'll keep my ichiban NL then and wait till i buy the colosseum…
What i hate about the IK one is the ugly steam effect base that hide most of the figure and the sword isn't straight :/

Yeah, they was a whole load of new stuff on banplanet this morning, including new shots of Law MSP: (http://ameblo.jp/banplanet) but I didn't have time to post. Kinemon is the only character i'm really interested, but I have my fingers crossed for a POP reveal next weekend!!
Any news on new pop po ?
Keep hanging in there dude!! Only 7 days to go until Megahobby!!! Only other news is more info on SA-MAXIMUM Franky re-release I mentioned the other week: http://megatreshop.shop40.makeshop.jp/html/new_event.html?code=20131121140300
He's another lottery item like Sadie, only open for 2 days, 2nd/3rd December with a release in mid December.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Oh, and in other exciting news, the JPY has continued to drop this week
1,000 yen is now only $9.87!! It may not sound a lot, but for those looking to get Sadie/Franky over the next couple of weeks it'll certainly save you some cents!
Thanks !

I do like the IK nightmare Luffy, but I feel he's hard to display as his pose and base leave him hidden from a lot if angles. I don't own him, but I remember admiring Sensui's :-p

Wow really now XD
Also why would they colour Blackbeard's shirt wrong…
Yep amazing stuff, there is actually much more to come, Kinnemon's face is finished and so are other figures.
Woah… A LOT of good scultures this time around! Nightmare Luffy's back is just insane (and a little gross lol). My boyfriend said it reminded him of the Hulk. Everyone looks good, but I have to say I feel sorry for the person who was assigned chopper. All these other characters are being embellished but there isn't much change you can give to chopper to make the sculpt more impressive/show off your skill. I wish they had been assigned a different chopper form where they could have more freedom interpreting the character. If everyone else is doing it, the chopper sculptor should have the chance, too.
That being said, on the other hand these OP scultures sculptors always seem to make liberties with the characters. This time it seems to have worked out, but I feel this is the chance for fans to have awesome dynamic figures of looked over characters. While so many of the Dragon Ball scultures looked like they simply popped out of a Toriyama splash page, the OP ones rarely give me that impression, making me a bit sad.
I'm going to hit the UFO catchers when they come out. I want a Nightmare Luffy army!!!
And if they're pretty, I'll buy one or two off ya, crease. :]
Kind of an older figure now. But I finally got Nami Crimin. She's pretty nice.

Looks awesome! Doesn't matter if its old, its new to you. Did you get the book with it? I ordered just the book the other week and its a great read even if I cant read Japanese.
As for me, I had a great day. Ordered Laws POP Accessory Heart from 1UP so when I can find the POP figure itself will look great. Then I come back from church to find 1UP having more Law POPs in stock. One grovelling later to the wife and now I have both POP and accessory on the way ^^ Very happy today!

Good call on the swimsuit Robin. Awesome review, glad your voice is getting better.
AmiAmi is telling me that it's impossible to ship Aokiji and Akaini FAZ by SAL due to their size O_o What.
@Al!naJames:

Since when did FAZs have such huge boxes to be ineligible for SAL shipping? …
@Al!naJames:

AmazonJP has them as; Aokiji: 5.1 x 12.7 x 17.8 cm / 921g and Akainu: 5.1 x 12.7 x 17.8 cm / 980g, so not overweight or oversize for SAL (unless you are trying to ship them together).
those ones are sculpted very big and the box is big also, like a p.o.p box so that's why its not sal-able.
Less than 5 days to go until megahobby!! Its getting exciting now!!

Well glad your voice is returning to normal. You should probably use better lighting for your future videos though. Nicely done anw.

I won't sleep! . xD
My bets are:
Sailing Again: Smoker, Tashigi, Kinemon
Mild: Momonosuke
Z Edition: Nami, Brook, Usopp
DX: Caesar Clown, X-Drake
Limited: Rebecca (or Baby 5)

That's not a bad shout at all!! It's 10 instead of 8. Sadly I'm not expecting Kinemon or Momo. Also possibly Hawkins instead of X-Drake and it's still too early for Rebecca, but other than that I think your list is spot on!!
I should be counting too the days too for the megahobby but the same day, Sony PS4 will be release in Europe so it's not a priority ^^"
And if it's like last year, i'm not gona be very exited xD
But if i see a Magellan, a Caesar or someone else from the CP9, it will save the day for me ^^" Hell even a Captain Crow would please me ! (dreams are good ! )
During last year, the Portrait Of Pirates collection kept "going down", it's very rare to see a sold out figure like it was before… And on the second hand market, the figures have drop from 20% to 50% value even for the rarest.
Hell, even a dereshi child Robin was sold on eBay for 65 euros shipping included yesterday !
I'm pretty sure, unless they stop releasing figures that already exist, this will not change. And they need to do that in time, releasing Sengoku or Kalifa for example now is nice but it's too late to make it "instant sold out".
Plus everybody have a space limit... the room needed just to display Mugiwara, Mugiwara SA, Mugiwara SW and Mugiwara Z is insane and take too much place in Megahouse release Schedule as they can't release 2 or 3 figures every months. Not mentionning the bikinis, criminal, chopperman, shiny repaints and 1.5...
That aside, last year and before, 1 euro = 95Y and now it's 1euro = 137Y (Those who pre-ordered and paid Franky SA in December 2012 know what i'm talking about ^^")
!!! The Yen value dropped so much so fast, it should have helped to sell more figures and it seems like it's the oposite that hapened unless Megaouse is producing way too much units (but judging by the limited ones still available, i doubt too much units is the real problem !)
Maybe i'm totally wrong, i don't know how things are going for FAZ and othr non-POP stuff.
I kinda miss the time when it was almost impossible to get a POP without stay up all nigh refreshing amiami, hs and HLj website ( not really... GLS ftw, but you got the idea ^^"). Very selfish i know...
I hope they will learn from this past months to change that and release the old characters "needed" fast and get rid of that matter then try to release figures following the anime. They need to put the movie stuff as 'not a priority' and focus on the "real story".
Robin was going that cheap?? Wish I had spotted that

Depending your country, it would have been impossible, it was Europe shipping only.

62 euros not 65 euros to be more accurate and zero risks of bootleg, Timcampy was a well known shop owner before.

I think he releases in December. If not December then surely January.
There's been an update to Megahouse's 10th Anniversary page: http://www.megahobby.jp/event/excellentmodel_10th/
Does anyone know what it's about? Something about a large number of characters were nominated for receiving an excellent model? And that they'll be a questionnaire where we can vote for our winner from the nominees? Am I right?
I'd be interested in seeing a nominees list. Maybe some prototypes will be shown at Megahobby, but not all of them will be commercialized?
What happened to those Figuarts of Choppers forms? Are they just another set of Figuarts that are shown off only to disappear again?

Bingo! 16 char limit
sigh guess i'm stuck with POP if I want a good horn point figure then..
If there's one thing Bandai seems to like, it's cashing in on variants of Chopper, Luffy, Law and other popular characters. I think we have a much better chance of getting all of the Chopper Points released in FAZ than the rest of the Supernovas and so forth.

But then still more chance of getting umpteen more alternate Law's and Aces's before them :)I'm sure they'll get there eventually! Lol

Damn, I was actually hoping they'd release that monster point FAZ since their bigger pieces tend to be not bad overall. But dammit really Bandai? Shit.
3 more days to go!
