Yeah I won't be buying anymore One Piece DVDs. BTW Figma is releasing figures from Attack on Titan  One piece. ..of s*it haha Yeah I saw those, luckily they release next year if I remember correctly, I could be wrong. Medicom also has a rah release and it looks great too Yeeeah personally, I've never gotten into the crazy ongoing animes like One Piece, Bleach, and Naruto. I was never really interested in any other than Dragonball. It's too much of a commitment to sit through 300+ episodes of a show when I could be watching tons of other awesome animes. Plus I find a lot of people saying they've lost interest in those shows after a while. But oh man, I've got the Figma Mikasa and Eren on Preorder! Not sure if I'll get Levi. I really hope that Armin is not an exclusive like I've heard some people saying. But lol, definitively not getting RAH Mikasa. I can't afford those crazy Medicom figures.  |

Couldn't agree with you more. To be honest I at first thought attack on titan was another one of those shows, glad I was wrong. It reminds me of gantz in a way, you know fighting for your life and protecting others, and loss. Very refreshing compared to the crap you mentioned above. Yeah definitely picking up the figmas, and I'm pretty sure once the rah is in stock prices will lessen somewhat, it looks beautiful and I could probably justify spending the cash |

Bleach is actually pretty good. I plan on getting all the movies and the first 3 collections (I already have the first movie and have collection 1 on order). I wish there were figures for Bleach in either Figma or Figuarts instead of Play Arts. Totally unrelated but full metal panic imo was pretty entertaining, ever seen that? I've never watched any of the Full Metal Alchemist series. What are they like? |

Yeah definitely picking up the figmas, and I'm pretty sure once the rah is in stock prices will lessen somewhat, it looks beautiful and I could probably justify spending the cash I've still yet to watch Gantz, but fighting for your life protecting others, and loss are definitively recurring themes in Attack on Titan. It makes me so very happy to be able to go to school and conventions and see my anime and non-anime watching friends talking about this show instead of some other horse hat anime that's kept going far longer than it should have because the creators feel like cashing in more on a popular name. Attack on Titan really was a refreshing watch. I hope it's popularity allows it to be renewed for a second season, unlike many superior animes that have to retire after 13-25 episodes. But still not sure about those RAH figures. They do look incredible, but I think for now, I'll save my money towards other smaller figures and university.  I love 1/6 scale figures, but I try to limit my purchases in above 6-inch scales because they can quickly drain your wallet. And @aussiedcfan, I would HIGHLY recommend you watch Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. I've heard the original Fullmetal Alchemist series is a great watch as well, but it does deviate very far from the manga as it started coming out more regularly than it after the first few volumes. Brotherhood still remains to be my favorite anime to date. It has all the qualities bones86 mentioned above with the addition of some comedy. and at 64 episodes long, it is long enough that you get enough exposure to the characters to be satisfied and have plenty of plot, but not so long that it's full of filler and repetitiveness. And all the conflicts are wrapped up at the end. It's great. Watch it!  |

And I'd also recommend picking up these 3 figures, too, if you like it.  |

That has to be a rarity lol |

Actually there were some Fullmetal Alchemist figures in the Play Arts Kai line at the same time, but I'm not really into that scale.

I like the new articulation model Revoltech used on those FMA figures compared to my Fist of the North Star figures. And finally a stand that is clear plastic and lets the figures touch the ground too.
