No one mentioned Machamp had gone up on Gundamit. Apparently got the last slot.
I'm sure they'll open again soon though.

why the FUCK did they give this thing a bowtie
it would have been PERFECT as a Jazwares scale Exeggutor if it wasnt for the fucking BOWTIE REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
also it's insane how China is making soulful kantoboomerchad toys like Exeggutor and Nidoking and neither the US nor Japanese markets have it

Not buying any of these first batch ones. Eevee would probably be the only one I might consider at that price point but Pikachu and the Trio are way too expensive for me.
I doubt if Lego would do mini packs/mini sets like Mega did but thats one of the benefits they had over Lego. There was a wide range of playsets to build with small Pokemon and then they had the bigger model sets.
I have a feeling Lego is going to stick strictly with adult collector stuff
>>
>>11696694
The Mega pokeballs with a small Pokemon were great for what they were. They get to reuse the ball over and over and it's nice from a packaging standpoint too. I don't see Lego having an equivalent product.

Exeggutor is actually supposed to be huge, IIRC theres anime episodes where pikachu and meowth are like riding on his leaves
>>11696283
>>11696657
What if I want to use him as a wild exeggutor? Or have a herd of exeggutors? Why would they all have ribbons? My ONLY chance to get an exeggutor and they couldnt even make the ribbon removable. Truly a tragedy for exeggutorfags everywhere

It sucks both Figma and Figuarts never went far with their pokemon lines. All I'm asking for is a good articulate figure of Dawn and Serena, and they both shit the canned with their lines picking to do Reihan and a huge ass Pikachu that doesn't scales with anything.

Well, at least he’s bigger than Nidoking.
I am curious about the range on the knees, as this will be the first Blockees figure I have with double-joints. So there’s an occasional hint at what the L-size kits are going to be from the S-size sets, as with Munch/Riolu/Scor/Chop. I wonder if there’s any predictions to be made about the latter half of this wave (if there is one, they might be moving away from that format) from what we already have. Praying it’s not that fucking duck.

>I am curious about the range on the knees, as this will be the first Blockees figure I have with double-joints
Knee range is horrible. It's basically a single hinge joint only with the appearance of a double. I saw it in a review video of it here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhdbyyrUpwo

they got a direct look at the products as other press outlets did at the london toy fair when normal influencers and visitors did not
and if it wasn't worth reporting on then it wasn't worth showing, much less talking about
>>
>>11706647
It's missing the J logo on the bottom left and the Warning words at the top. My initial reaction was that it was fake at first glance with it looking off. The black and white outline Chandelure art also doesn't look like something they'd ever do even if they changed the box design.

Single moncolle are officially like 650yen so when person said around "$20" I'm guessing it meant around 2000yen which is roughly exactly x3. Like ignoring currency conversions and just looking at the yen price was hoping it'd be like around 1500. It adds up if you wana get all of them.

What parts are stickers? I hate the stickers on their things and they ruin the figures for me. Is it just the orange parts on the red skin but not the orange spikes?

The only orange plastic is the crown & tail spikes, whereas the eyes/stripes down the body/under the feet are all straightforward but due to the multiple plastic seams coming together most of them are in 2 parts (dividers shown in blue) which only increased the amount of stickers on the sheet in a total of 37.
Worst part thogh was the godamn upper teeth, they were so tiny & are only staying intact because they "wrap" around themselves with creases in each sticker like wtf.
>>
>>
>>11720348
Darn. That sucks. The stickers are always ugly but the ones they have you wrap around round parts like the teeth are impossible to make look good. I hate those :(. I would rather pay a few bucks more and have more parts molded or painted in the correct color to avoid stickers.

I always considered hate a atrong word, and don't use it sparingly, but I HATE stickers. I always thought this was them cheaping out on stuff, and while I could very well be right, I've learned there are people over there that truly enjoy the stickers and I wish I coukd understand it. It's nice when I see JP collectors also complain about stickers though.

That's weird but I guess I can see why. They probably like the process of applying the sticker? Like you're already building something so I guess there are people that enjoy the sticker portion of the process.

But favorite dog for fire type
That's neat

>>
>>11724731
That's it exactly.
-The leaf eyebrows on the grass starter are literally the leaf bowtie from Rowlet just moved up above the eyes.
-The fire dog has Sprigatito's same proportions and legs just with a bunch of extra fur around the head and smaller eyes. Plus Pawmi's color.
-The water gecko has a rain drop pattern on it just like Quaquaval had on its body. Plus another feminine looking water one after Primarina and Quaquaval lines.
It's like you told AI to make these starters and they pulled cvarious elements from other recent starter Pokemon to spit these out. Basically what Palworld did for several of theirs.
