So here's a short story behind this purchase. I was doing some window shopping around Mandarake for some figures and I came across an S.H.Figuarts listing for G Gundam's Master Asia. I get the sudden urge to watch some G Gundam, so in another window which was running Youtube already, I click on a very coincidental episode of G Gundam. The Death of Master Asia The Mandarake listing was for 3000 yen but I also knew that Master Asia is a shelfwarmer, so I looked elsewhere. It boiled down to AmiAmi and CDJapan. I'm a more regular customer with AmiAmi and I would get some points to use for a future order but he was also cheaper at CDJapan, so I had a small inner debate. I got curious and checked if CDJapan also used a points system, which it did after I checked my account and remembered getting some when I made an order for my Blu-Ray copy of Madoka Magica: Rebellion. Coincidentally again, it said that my points were due to expire today, which just let me go "Yep, I'm ordering him!". 400 and 30 some odd points later, I've got a $19.70 USD order for SH Figuarts Master Asia. Without points, he would have been $23.74. Both include shipping.  |

Got three of the four Attack On Titan figma figures. Now just have to get Armin, who happens to be the most expensive!  |

Nice! My cousin loves attack on titan and has the figmas. They are really impressive in person.

I just bought these things. I need to get that Kinnikuman figure. I want to use it for Tien. The Cable figure is decent, but it's pretty undersized for Marvel Select. It fits much better with Marvel Legends. And, unfortunately the oversized shoulderpads and poor arm design really limit him. A few people have already removed the shoulderpads and put on the Marvel Legends Cable ones, it makes a big difference. |

If you can get the Marvel Legends shoulderpads, I would highly recommend doing the swap.   |
