P.O.P Sailing Again: Chopper (Kung-Fu point)

Mega House decided to bring in another version of Chopper for his P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) Sailing Again with Kung-Fu point edition. He doesn't have any interchangeable parts, but he can basically twist and turn from side to side. At least we get to see a new version of Chopper than his usual normal version, though I wish we were given his Horn-point version of himself. Enjoy!

P.O.P DX New World

Hey guys, here are some new updates on some up coming P.O.P DX New World characters. I apologize for the lack of updates that I've had on the blog. I will definitely try to blog more, but because most of my orders are back in Vancouver you will all see a increase in posts around December.

Here are some P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) DX and Sailing Again characters. We have Captain Kid, Killer, Chopper (Kung-Fu Point), and Perona as well. For Kid and Killer, they don't seem to be the New World version, since we haven't seen them yet. The version you are seeing are from the Shabondy Archipelago arc for those that are wondering. Enjoy!

P.O.P Sailing Again - Usopp

Been a while since I last updated the blog. Finally settled down in San Francisco and work has been coming in quite a lot. Been ordering a bunch of figures as well, but sadly I shipped them all back in Vancouver. Can't wait until Christmas since I have 8 boxes of figures waiting for me!

Enough of my personal life, here is a old update which some of you might know. Mega House released their P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) Sailing Again Usopp just recently. He comes with several variations of faces along with different pose-able arms as well. His sculpt and the color are both done really well. Also Robin's Sailing Again version should be coming out very shortly as well. Recently AmiAmi had a bunch of restocks for certain figures, but like always they are always sold out.

I would suggest that if you couldn't get your hands on any P.O.P figure that you wanted, try checking out Mandarake. Although it is a bit more expensive, due to people selling them at a higher price, but once that starts to die down it's not too bad. Most of my Grand Line Men/Lady series comes from Mandarake and I highly recommend it! Today is a short blog and I will end it with the promo poster for Usopp. Enjoy!

P.O.P Sailing Again: Sanji

P.O.P Sailing Again: Sanji

It's that time again for the Pre-Order battle for P.O.P Sailing Again series with Sanji. Compared to his last P.O.P's (Neo & Strong World), the Sailing Again series gave him a few more accessories and some new changeable faces, which I think is great. Not many people seem to like Sanji, but I personally like his classy look and appeal. Here is the promo poster for him. I believe his pre-order will be sometime this week? I may be wrong but might be on a Wednesday, 6pm Japan time. If you plan on pre-ordering him I would suggest trying AmiAmi, HLJ, Otacute, or Hobby Search. The store links can be found on the right side bar of my blog. If you have any questions regarding the pre-orders or how they work, leave me a comment and I will get back to you.

P.O.P DX Admiral Kizaru & Roronoa Zoro (New World)

P.O.P Sailing Again: Roronoa Zoro (New World)

Here are a few new updates on the coming P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) DX & Sailing Again series. Both coming out for pre-orders tonight are P.O.P DX Admiral Kizaru and P.O.P Sailing Again: Roronoa Zoro, both of which look fantastic. The additional items that come with Admiral Kizaru is pretty awesome and I am happy to see that MegaHouse has decided to include another Zoro face with him holding the sword in his mouth.

P.O.P DX: Admiral Kizaru

For those that are starting to get into collecting P.O.P's this would be a nice time to start collecting the Mugiwara New World version, since compare to the older one's the sculpt and poses were pretty simple and mind you that they were just starting when this series got really popular. Personally for me, I won't be collecting the P.O.P's for this series just because of the limited space I have in my room and also the cost of which these fantastic figures are. I will however consider buying certain characters if they decide to bring those out, like the other Shichibukai's but because of the Sailing Again series launching I hope they won't abandon the DX series and bring out a new one.

Banpresto One Piece Fair

Here are some photo's taken by DengekiOnline at the Banpresto Convention in Tokyo. They have a few new releases and a few new updates on the coming Grand Line Men/Children series. No information on the Grand Line Ladies at the moment, but hoping within the next few day we will see some. At the moment here are some of the following Grand Line Men: Marco, Gol D. Roger, Roronoa Zoro (New World/Time Skip), and Sanji (New World/Time Skip). As for Grand Line Children, Lucchi is set to be released probably for Vol.3 since Vol 2 would be Ace & Boa Hancock.

One Piece Manga Art

Just found these while I was looking up randomly on google for One Piece figures. Thought I would share this with you guys. Currently waiting for my P.O.P Silver Rayleigh and Banpresto Grand Line Children Luffy & Sabo to arrive! I have also made a ridiculous purchase as well but I will keep that a secret until it arrives. For now enjoy these manga sketches by Oda sensei!!

Grand Line Men Yasopp, Luffy & Usopp (Time Skip)

Grand Line Men: Luffy (New World) Vol. 10

Here are some of the up coming releases in this months Banpresto Grand Line Men series. Starting in mid-September, Banpresto Grand Line Men: Yasopp and Zoro will be coming out. Following in mid-October New World version of Luffy and Usopp is coming out next. Personally I won't be getting the Zoro for the September release, since the New World series has just started coming out, therefore I will just get the New World version of Zoro instead. I was still debating on getting the P.O.P versions of the New World Mugiwara crew but decided not to. For some reasons (1) cost/shipping, (2) detail - example on luffy's belt is a little different on the P.O.P versus Banpresto's version, and (3) space to put them in. Although the P.O.P versions do look pretty fantastic, but for me personally I am going to stick with the Banpresto line instead of collecting more P.O.P's.

Figuarts One Piece releases

Figuarts Zero One Piece: Sentomaru

Here are some releases by Bandai's Figuarts One Piece series that was just released on AmiAmi Online Shop. As expected they are currently sold out, but seeing that they are made by Bandai they will have many more in stock. So if you missed the pre-orders for this series, don't worry, they will have many more in stock! here are some of the photo's of the releases.

Figuarts One Piece New World Ver.

Figuarts One Piece New World (Time Skip) ver.

Here's a small update (delayed - sorry about the late notice) on Figuarts version of the One Piece New World Version of this series. Compared to Banpresto, Figuarts came out with their version first but the pose and builds are pretty close. This just depends on which pose you collectors prefer better compared to one another. Personally I like Banpresto's poses and because I have already started a collection of Banpresto figures I would like to have a good consistency of the figures I buy. Here are some photo's of the latest pre-orders from AmiAmi Online Store, but knowing that this is by Bandai there will be many more in stock. I guarantee!!
