P.O.P DX Donquixote Doflamingo

Finally got my P.O.P DX Doflamingo just before leaving for San Francisco. I took these a while ago and didn't get to post them up yet. At long last I finally got one of my favorite Shichibukai characters. For those that are planning on ordering him after seeing photos online, beware, his box is HUGE!! But none the less if you are a fan of Doflamingo, he is for sure the one to get.

He comes with three separate head pieces, a base, and his body. I kind of wish he came with more parts other than the heads, but his facial expression does capture his characteristic so that's fine. I am a bit worried in the long run where he will begin to lean on one side. He is mainly supported by one leg, while the other foot is standing on his toes. Over time I can see him leaning too much, which might cause some issues later. If you plan on displaying him, have something supporting his weight from his arms or even from his coat. Here are some photos that I took of Doflamingo. Enjoy!

P.O.P DX Gecko Moria

P.O.P DX Gecko Moria

Available May 2012

It's the time again where the pre-orders for the up coming P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) DX Gecko Moria came out tonight at 1:00 am Vancouver time, 6:00pm Japan time. I managed to pre-order Moria from AmiAmi, but since I did not order anything from their site lately because of their huge maintenance change, I was a bit worried. None the less I have managed to pre-order Moria from AmiAmi and also a while back I managed to order Doflamingo from Big in Japan. Currently I am 5/7 Shichibukai members being collected and just missing Jinbei and Crocodile. I believe I can find both of them if I went down to Tokyo, but at the moment both of them are pretty hard to find online.

I am a bit disappointed that Moria is pretty expensive, especially only coming with two additional bats and with no extra parts. I am not 100% sure of his actual height, but in relation to the manga he SHOULD be as tall as or maybe taller than Bartholomew Kuma. I hope MegaHouse gets his height accurate, otherwise I would be really disappointed in this figure. I hope those that were able to get their pre-orders, went through well. For those that were unable to pre-order him, try checking out Mandarake or Rakuten as a back up plan!! Enjoy!
