I want Heat/Metal & Cyclone/Joker

the gashapon is not bad

U r not lucky, u r SUPER lucky! Which store didja find Kabuto?
I went like, 4 days ago, no luck

BTS 2nd floor IT centre, there is one small hobby shop. I got the last one already i think as it is the only one in the shelf. I'm familiar with the boss there & he said next week Kuuga amazing mighty is coming so i might buy from him if the price is reasonable (boss said not know the price yet, but i find his price is reasonable so far compared to other shops in BTS)

I see... Lucky you!
Me no Kabuto
Guess I should aim for Ixa and W CycloneJoker for now.

why bother getting the 3rd batch kabuto if you look clearly the mole for the shf kabuto got problem
the mole usually start loose/defected at the 3rd batch

Walao.. so sour grapes.. just cause some ppl got their SHF Kabuto don't la diss their purchase like that. I'm sure after a few more weeks XL-shop or time machine will get their restock.

On another note

SHF Decade Complete

Looks sooooo sweet! I love the one where Decade is using the Ktouch to henshin..

I don't get my kabuto either, it not sour grape it's truth.
I have seen for the 2nd & 3rd batch you see the plastic it got slightly defected and this is a common problem after 3rd batch and its not recommended from some buyers
My Decade is 2nd batch there alot of deface at back
i regret getting 2nd batch

same as shf the both have the common problem at the 3rd or 2nd batch

Many people know that SIC is divided into the first edition and re-engraved edition, reprint, but they are and how to define how to identify it? The following clear up the puzzle for you
1.SIC are actually what is the first edition, what is reprinted, re-engraved version of it?
Answer: From the production cycle, the first edition is the manufacturer of goods produced in the first phase, that is, the first batch of goods, while the second edition is in the first stage of production after the products reflect the overwhelming demands for more production of goods, that is the second batch of goods. Will normally be re-engraved version of the first edition was published after the publication of a very long period of time, because when the mold in the production of second edition will have a chance to wear and tear can not be reused, so in a computer-recycling technology will be the first edition out of the mold, and then re-engraved version of the production .

2. The first edition and reprint What is the difference? Reprinted, re-engraved version is pirated Mody?
Answer: would like to stress that, republish, re-engraved version is not pirated, edition is actually the first edition of the molds used to do, and why would the quality difference? Because the production of molds in the product are subject to wear and tear, leading to reprint the first edition appeared there would be little more than flawed, it is said that with the first edition reprint of quality no big difference, but there are some flaws are still at stake, but also relatively large individual differences ( such as: Century Wang Ying months). Re-engraved version is made to re-mold, another thing is that the majority will be re-engraved version of the first edition of that period developed the most advanced re-engraved with ferrite (for example: last year's Dragoon is the time to improve before the first edition of the Dragon Dental ferrite).

3. The question of whether the first edition and second edition, re-engraved version of who will have more value to the collection ah?
Answer: There is no doubt, is the first edition. Because no matter the quality of its collection value as well as speaking, is a reprint and re-engraved version of nothing comparable. Of course, in this case is relative to the collection value you as a speculative players, if we want to play for a pure point of view, then reprinted and re-engraved version is sufficient, because the quality is really not much difference, but prices are also more it is cheaper.

4. What is a plug of water?
Answer: Insert the word water is a player the player on the SIC particularly in Guangdong in terms of product life cycle of the proverb. In the Advertising speaking, the product life cycle is divided into into the market, growth, maturity, there is a period of recession four time periods. (Multi-port one, little brother was a student in advertising professional, where the "get what ax"), while the water is inserted into the mature products such as the late and no to the recession period of time between, the price will be gradually reduced, until you reach the recession has been out of the market. Each product can not escape this fate, so we can be again at the start with SIC to consider, do not have to lead to later regret impulse.

5. Be able to distinguish between the box is the first edition and second edition also re-engraved version of Yao?
Answer: more difficult, unless they are up to one-class players, someone told me that before the box behind the sticker to see whether you can tell, but personally believe, only tell whether the mainstream and parallel (parallel imports and licensed in another? See http : / / www.blacksuns2006.com/bbs/read.php?tid-19935.html) logo only, appearance alone can not easily tell at once, unless the first edition and reprint some of the larger, respectively (red shadow of the month ) and they can tell by the naked eye. Of course, many of them are able to distinguish (such as RX) will be a lot of JS in order to re-charge this reason the beginning. If it is the pursuit of the comrades who bought the first edition the best person to bring an up-level players, or to find familiar stores. Undone engraved version of the general and the first edition produced in time separated for a long time, and be determined to re-engraved version of bandai packaged as a series, package will be different, the general could easily identify

Here would like to thank ID: Foshan fried dough sticks, Moon Shadow Soul valuable revisions!

Keep in mind, not everyone buys their SHF or SIC for collection purposes to be kept in the vault and proudly announce to the world I have limited edition this and first edition that.

Some of us here buys our stuff to play and display. I would rather buy a reissue at a reasonable price than something off evil bay that claims to be 1st edition at goreng price. So I'm really grateful to Bandai for reiissuing stuff. Gives the rest of us a chance to own a piece of child hood memory even after a damn scalper sapu 10 boxes of SHF Kabuto just to goreng.

But back on topic, Final Form Decade looks nice with the rest of everyone's final form, but I'm still giving it a miss. I still say it looks weird, lol!

Bro i agree with u. This is just to keep up with child hood memory as when i'am young i do not have money to buy toys nor video game console (i don't have these when i'm young). Hence now i am financially stable & sound, these things comes back to me.

I will normally display my figures & constantly change their pose & take pictures of them - it is very satisfying hobby & i hope everyone here enjoy their hobbies as well

How much you bought it? I want it too and where is BTS?

nice ... preordered mine from xl shop but till now still no news ... supposed to be shipped @ oct ..

Berjaya Times Square 2nd floor inside IT Centre

I agree with this statement as well, i play with my toys.. emphasis on toys, albeit expensive ones I keep trying out multiple poses to get those amazing rider moments seen in the series. Unfortunately my kabuto SHF riders (especially kick and punch hopper) now have kinda loose joints in the knees after posing them. They seem to loosen after awhile yes?

I'm quite sold on Decade complete form.. altho my initial response to his appearence in the show was also a la 'WTF~~' after seeing him in action i just love his robotic synchronized movement with the other final forms. But that's just me

Figures usually come in later than the said date. I did preorder a couple of figures before which were supposed to ship in in september but i only got the phone call somewhere in the middle of october.
Rest assured, you'll get the figure, it's just a matter of time.
Maybe I'll hve to preorder Kabuto as well...
