seems like Gear4 Luffy´s preorder/reserving starts the end of April (according to rough google translation)…
Please correct me if I am wrong

I will get that Baby 5 no matter the price.

I feel the same. I was planning to stop after the 3 executives, but I've wanted a POP Vergo and Baby 5 for so long I think I may have to get them as well!!
I will have to be strong and pass on Gladius, Dellinger and the marine vice admirals!! Talking of the vice admirals:
My daughters POP collection!
Kind of disappointed in those VAs. Momonga is okay, but I really wanted to get Doberman, but he doesn't look that good. Oh well, more money to spend on other things.

Yeah, I did think they'd over exaggerated his mouth a bit. Kinda reminds me of what MH did with Akainu.
Update overload:
Megahouse's output over the past year has been absolutely disgraceful. It started with making certain characters limited editions, then embarrassing big boob figures and gender swap. No characters from ZOU? Or the abundance of unreleased characters? They've made it too easy for me to not give them money. F.O.C are just too expensive to be suitable replacement.

Damn straight! I feel ya brother. Megahouse really are running out of rope to hang themselves with. What are we on, 3 sculpts and 9 variations of Nami BB, 3 for Hancock, 2 for Tashigi. They going to string it out with variations of Robin/Vivi/Califa? We haven't had Perona yet. I'd like to think they'd stop there! We've had 2 years of this now, so i'm really hoping the advent of Gear 4 Luffy it a turning point for the line! I won't hold my breath though!
And I agree, collecting F.O.C is not sustainable. I think some characters, like Trebol, will never get a POP, so it's worth it for completionists, but I hope MH come back with at least a Baby-5 or Vergo in the next few years!

Red Hair Studios 1/2 Scale Nico Robin!
isn't that just the Robin from the Tokyo tower thing tho? Is it actually getting a retail release?
That is indeed the Tokyo Tower 1/1 scale. Don't know why they're using that picture, here's the real one

I dunno. I like it but it feels like taking the arms off her is a bit criminal XD How is she supposed to use her powers!?
I'd think my dream figure would be Norland, because of how unlikely it is and how touching his story was. I'd just wish Megahouse would finish the release of the Supernovas.

It's so funny you should say that. My daughter and I just finished reading and watching the skypiea arc and when I asked her what other character she would like a figure of she said Norland The Liar!! Bless Her!
Kuji Prize Yonji and Reijuu:
nice collections!

reiju so hhaaaawwtt!!
Just paid final invoice for my first 2 FOC Studio figures, Diamante and Trebol. They should be down next week.
£450 with shipping. That's $560 for those in the US.
Pricey stuff. £225 per figure is a lot of money. Not sure whether I'll get Pica, Vergo or Baby 5 yet.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Also nobody mentioned confirmed price for SA-MAXIMUM Luffy Gear 4.
16,799 YEN!!
Regular release, so expecting it to the less without tax and amiami discount, but still. EMS shipping will be another 4-5k
Not much cheaper than those FOC figures, lol
Isn't that only like £120? Very cheap for a figure of that magnitude.

More likely £150 with international EMS, which still makes it one of the most expensive POPs to date.
And yeah, size wise it is a big figure, but unlike Franky for example, so far it appears luffy comes with no accessories and no alternative display options.
Don't get me wrong, I wasn't expecting anything else and still 100% on board. I'm just thinking of the value for money for more casual collectors.
I think i'll buy this one when its available to pre-order, I've only had one POP which is the first law timeskip one so this'll be my 2nd ever.

How does one buy those FOC figures? Is there a website?
I will buy that Gear Four Luffy. Just hope Megahouse doesn't decide to sculpt boobs on him at the last minute.
Anyone know anything about these watches and if they are worth anything? I was able to find a smidge of into on the one, but the gold/yellow faced one I can't find a thing.

I've only been able to find a couple of English speaking websites. Both in Singpore.

As supply is reducing it seems the prices are starting to go up. I paid 250 SGD for Trebol, but looks to be more now.
I got mine from GAC as Chris Tan who runs it offers a good customer service.

Incredibly weird but Amiami got a bunch of new prize figures in including some special colours of the Glitter + Glam Nami and Robin, another Ace figure, another Zoro figure and some Vinsmoke WCF
They can only ship it to American regions, sadly, due to regional distribution restrictions. No luck for us peeps in Europe :(
aye I tried to get the Robin and Nami and it wouldn't let me. Shame because I know a few people who wanted these. Oh well less money for them
i tried ordering the vinsmoke wcf but it says they do not deliver to my country. that is strange since other items are ok.
FOC Studio Diamante and Trebol arrived by DHL today! Pictures soon!
Pretty crappy camera photo's, but you get the idea!! Trebol is enormous! Bigger than I expected, but amazing quality. Diamante is a little lack luster in comparison. I think Pica will be incredible.
miyazawa model exhibition 2017 Spring must be any day now! Looking forward to pics!
I beginning to think I was premature in getting rid of the GLM series. Not 100% sold on the Vinsmoke Children in chairs, but I think once all 6 are together, will look pretty damn good.
While I'm here, is there any word on any future Dramatic Showcase's?
Finally took some pics of GG Robin, decent though its one of those painful looking poses. Now that I have her I think I would be happier with the non hat special version but oh well. This one also has a garbage stand, I don't understand why this line is like this. Their very tall and definitely need a stand especially since they can't stand on their own due to high heels and all, yet no thought is put into the stands. Just garbage.

Also got the newest WCF Nami, forget what the set is called.

Yeah not a huge fan of that Robin. I still haven't gotten mine yet (either) as my local Anime shop is getting it and just waiting for them to get it in (I felt it was time to start supporting my local business for the odd thing here and there)
FOC Gladius painted:
I'm holding off on these after Pica and Vergo.
May get Baby 5 and the new Doflamingo if it's as good as plus more affordable than the MPalace one.
Once you start getting into the Tsume prices collecting starts to lose it's appeal!

I really love that figure. Guess I was lucky in Japan when I went searching for this Robin in Akihabara (I've got her without the hat) and luckily found her for about 1300 Yen + Box.
I finally got VAH Nami and Usopp.
Super happy with these! They are bigger and so much more quality in person than I imagined. Good job on articulacy too. Will probably get more characters from this line.

Really nice pictures Alina! So far I haven't seen many dynamic pictures of the VAH figures, but they look photogenic in these.
I was considering getting into these, but with FOC and Gear 4 Luffy in Sep I decided to pass.
Nothing new was shown at Miyazaki, but only 36 DAYS UNTIL MEGA HOBBY EXPO!!!!
Let's hope things are about to change!!

I love my Nami, got her on sale for a great price. Wish they were more affordable, would love the Boa Hancock one.

I'm pretty sure he's gonna be hollow like Kuma and the support for the whole fig will be the smoke base that's connected to his back or butt and not those tiny legs.
Yeah, he'll probably firmly sit on that smoke base, so don't worry about it.
So i've been looking around for Luffy today, and the only place I can find it is http://megatreshop.shop40.makeshop.jp/shopdetail/000000000420
Seems retail stores haven't been able to secure units yet for resale.

He's up at biginjap, nippon yasan and amiami. I've preordered it from Nippon Yasan but I'm not sure to keep the order, the price is way too high and unjustifyed in my opinion. He is 30 cm overall, but Luffy alone would be 22 cm which isn't nearly enough what I expected him to be. I hope it turns out to be as for Kid Maximum, which I wasn't happy paying that much but made me rethink about it as it was worth all of its money once it arrived.
Ordered Luffy from Nippon Yassan. I don't care if it's 10000 or 15000¥. Just can't pass and as i collect only POPs it's been so long since i ordered anything due to the lack of anything exept bikinis.
