Fight Club Mako with bat - Wonderfest exclusive
Pop Team Epic with bat - bundle exclusive
Edward Elric with bat - GSC exclusive

They sure like making bats exclusive.

 

[Replicant]

Hmm, is the Bat worth an extra $10+shipping? Decisions decisions.....AmiAmi is kind of winning atm.....

I would pass on it. Some of the exclusive parts can be cool, but there aren't too many I'd consider essential.

I never watched the show (only the 1st OP title) - I know, I know *cringe*

But I want this so can someone please tell me if the Bat featured prominently in the series?

Not at all.

I don't remember the bat at all, honestly. If it was even in there, it was only for a bit here or there.

Thank you! Thank you!

AmiAmi wins! Flawless victory.

What are you guys talking about?

It's Edward's Iconic Bat TM.

In a few occasions. Ed likes to make a bat using alchemy featuring a caricature of his face which he uses to bash faces in.

Good pics

I forgot to buy Rin and Ren Harvest Moon version! Woe is me. T_T

I thought about them for a while, but I ended up passing. They are super cute, but I'd rather focus on Miku more.

 

[Freezasaurus]

I ordered Tanya yesterday along with the WWI-era diorama for display.

 

[Bloodember]

Got a payment notification for Kylo Ren and Boba Fett. Figured they'd be delayed again.

Is there a site with pics or all upcoming nendoroids? Want to see if there are any upcoming Nintendo or Pokemon related ones.
Also does Amazon sell a lot of fakes. I'm seeing MegaMan and Sonic for about 35 each. I thought these things cost around 50 each.

If its sold from amazon they are real, but if they're from third parties you never know, if it ships from china its obvious.

Amazon is not in the clear from selling bootlegs. I'm not sure if they are in the clear from it, but they have before.

MyFigureCollection has a pretty good gallery of Nendoroids.

Amazon themselves are clear. Third parties can do whatever.

Considering 3rd parties, "fulfilled" by Amazon/Prime eligable isn't always safe.

Fulfilled by Amazon is not Amazon. Amazon is just shipping them for the third parties as they keep their stuff in Amazon warehouses.

Update.

 

[LiK]

OMFG Tangled Nendo!

 

[spiritfox]

Want Rapunzel.

 

[Chorazin]

Ordered Edward Elric, absolutely couldn't pass him up after seeing the pics. The GF and I both love FMA so much, he was a must buy.

 

[spiritfox]

A bunch of new Nendos from AX. Also Nendo Tracer and Mei was shown in public.

Hope they make a Hinata one.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Update.

Yessssss. I just started watching Little Witch Academia on Netflix. It's so wonderful. Really washed the bad taste out of my mouth from A Handmaid's Tale.

I went to pre-order the Akko Nendo but it seemed like most of the Japanese shops were sold out, so I had to order her from BBTS.

 

[Salmonbottle]

Does anyone have the Luigi figure and can you put his faceplate on other characters? This is important, thanks.

I don't have the Luigi one but I can say that Nendoroids are based on a standard form with interchangeability in mind. Switching out Luigi's faceplate for someone else's, or vice versa, should not be an issue.

 

[Tempy]

Pretty sure Luigi's faceplate is NOT going to work with other Nendoroids. There are a couple of Nendoroids (Mesousa, Pipimi, etc) which do not adhere to the standard faceplate connection shape.

 

[Euphony]

Hmm yea now that I look at the Luigi Nendoroid it definitely is different. I probably should have looked it up instead of just assuming it was just a standard Nendoroid.

When you get that GOODSMILE charge on your card and forgot you ordered this year's Snow Miku.....

or the more painful realisation that you forgot to order this years snow Miku

 

[spiritfox]

BTW Mercy Nendo.

Still salty I forgot to checkout on last year's miku and thought I had bought her. I don't care for this year's one. Looks lame.

Then you realize there are 2 of them this year. One that ships now and one next month. OH the horror.

Spoiler

Good thing I didn't miss either, got the figmas.

 

[BGBW]

I'm waiting for them to release a proper Miku nendo.

 

[Curler]

What do you mean by "proper"? She's had just about every design made, include her original look.

 

[Tempy]

He means this Miku - http://www.project-imas.com/wiki/Miku_Maekawa

There are only Nendoroid Petites of her.

Oh that Miku... The convo above was talking about Snow (Hatsune) Miku.

 

[Quonny]

don't pay attention to bgbw

 

[Bloodember]

Yup, Snow Miku: Twinkle Snow Ver. Here's the Nendoroid

 

[Chorazin]

Yup, Snow Miku: Twinkle Snow Ver. Here's the Nendoroid

Ummm that's the one that just shipped for me. Was there a second Snow Miku this year as well?

 

[shadow2810]

Can't believe I forgot to preorder her... markup price will be insane ;(

 

[Curler]

I don't think it's shipped yet, as GSC Store charges a few weeks before release (I forgot to add mine to my "charging soon" list! Totally forgot!)

A Figma on an older Snow Miku was also released. Back then, they didn't have simultaneous Nendo/Figma releases, so I guess are now going through a backlog?
