P.O.P DX Limited & Sailing Again

P.O.P Limited DX - Shanks

Here are some up coming awesome P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) Limited DX and Sailing Again editions for next year. For the Limited DX line we have Califa, Gol D. Roger, Sadi-chan, and Shanks (New World). For the Sailing Again series, we have Trafalgar Law and Franky. Mega House is also planning on bringing out Shiki from the One Piece Strong World series as well but the date of his pre-order is not yet released. Here are some prototype photo's I have found online for the time being.

P.O.P Sailing Again - Trafalgar Law

I apologize to my subscribers for the very delayed post! I have been really busy the last months with work and trying to find some time to write a post. I will try to get on top of that in the next few weeks! For now, enjoy these prototype photos and I will post some photos up on some figures I was able to open while I went back to Vancouver during a short vacation from work. Enjoy!

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!

Portrait of Pirates Updates

As some of you may have seen on the web, MegaHouse has released some of their newest prototypes for the coming months. Here are some new prototypes along with some unexpected characters that made it into the line. We have showing P.O.P DX, Sailing Again, and possibly a new line. Take a look. Enjoy!

Mega House Releases and Updates

I apologize for the long wait to all my viewers. I just recently moved down to San Francisco for a new job opportunity so I have been busy for the last few weeks. I finally settled in a bit and found some time to update the blog. It's a little old news but here are some updates on some P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) DX & Sailing Again series. From the DX series we have Arlong, which I'm sad I didn't get to pre-order him. Just seeing his sculpt and the coloring and details done on him is just fantastic. Also I wouldn't need to collect all of the Arlong Pirate crew so that would also save me some money there as well. Though I told myself I won't be collecting any more P.O.P's once I get Crocodile in my collection.

Next we have the Sailing Again series with Brook, Robin, and also a re-release of Nami. Both Nami and Robin were a little disappointing due to the lack of extra add-on's compared to the rest of the Mugiwara crew, but this was expected. Brook, on the other hand looks fantastic. I love his expression and also his icicle sword is pretty neat. I kinda wish he came with a guitar or a violin, since that is kind of his signature element as the musician of the crew. None the less, the details on him are fantastic! Here's a short update on the P.O.P's and I will also update some neat D.P.C.F on the next post. Enjoy!

Happy Easter & P.O.P Updates

I apologize for being away from the blog. I recently attended the Sakura Con 2012 in Seattle and was too busy to blog at the time. I'm just going to post up a small update on some pretty sweet P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) that are coming up, as well as a new Franky docking add-on update as well. First off for the P.O.P Sailing Again, we have Brook with what seems to look like a icicle sword and we have P.O.P DX Arlong with his sword and his teeth chopping weapon.

Both of these look really sweet and I would highly recommend for those collecting One Piece New World characters, these would be the choice. For me, I decided I wouldn't be collecting the P.O.P Sailing Again series because of cost and also lack of space in my room. Otherwise, I would be collecting these guy by now.

We have a new update on the Docking Franky figure, but this time with his mini tank. We saw Franky coming out with new ridiculous vehicles and this pretty much shows what kind of things he might bring out next. Here's a small photo of the tank. Enjoy!

Banpresto & MegaHouse Promo Posters!!

Can't wait for this month's Banpresto releases!! For Banpresto's Grand Line Men series we have Sanji, Zoro, and Chopper coming out at the end of this month; most likely around the 28th or so. Collectors, be sure to look out for them on Mandarake since I'm sure once they are on there, they will sell out really fast!

We also have some up coming figures from MegaHouse's P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) series as well. I can't wait for my DonFlamingo and Moria to come out soon, but at the same time I am very worried since I need to save up for those two because of their shipping cost! None the less I am VERY close to finishing my collection of Shichibukai characters!

Currently thinking about buying P.O.P NEO Shanks since I love him so much and at the same time thinking about getting Ben Beckman if I so happen to get Shanks. The only thing I'm worried is MegaHouse releasing a New World version of Shanks to go with Ben Beckman, but this might not happen for a while since they just entered new world. We will see. Enjoy!

P.O.P NEO-DX Ben Beckman & Shirahoshi

This weeks pre-orders has just released P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) NEO-DX Ben Beckman and Sailing Again - Shirahoshi!! Sadly I was too late to order Ben Beckman. Even though I don't have Shanks yet, the Red Haired Pirates are my second favorite groups in the One Piece Series. Ben Beckman comes with two types of faces, his "younger" self and his New World look, much like what he looks like now from the anime. His sculpt is just fantastic and he is currently going for 5800-6000 yen; much cheaper than expected. I am hoping that once he is out on the market I would be able to find him and start a Akagami collection.

 Next we have P.O.P Sailing Again - Shirahoshi announced for this weeks pre-order as well! She doesn't come with any inter-changeable parts, but she does come with a mini luffy figure. I wish they included a second head with her crying face, which she is pretty much known for. In terms of her size, they scaled her down but she is pretty much the same height as New World Zoro, slightly a little bit shorter from some photo's I have seen posted on forums. The details on her is pretty awesome and coloring is done really well! I do like her character, but not enough for me to buy her to add to my collection. If I am able to find her for a cheaper deal in Japan, I may consider getting myself one if I happen to find one.

2012 JUMP Festival: P.O.P MegaHouse

Here is the updates on the new P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) Sailing Again and DX series. We have an update from the DX series of Ben Beckman and Moria. It is said that they confirmed that Moria's arms are not changeable, but might be considered just a static pose but with different items that comes with him. I assume it would be something similar to Akainu with different bat elements or action items. For the Sailing Again series, we have an update on Brook, Usopp, Robin, and Franky sculpt confirmed. I love Brook's pose and sculpt; I wish I was collecting the Sailing Again series, but it wasn't enough for me to collect the whole group. For me personally I wouldn't just get one of them and not consider getting the others, even though Zoro, Brook, and Usopp all look fantastic. Here are some photo's found online from the JUMP Festival conference.

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.

P.O.P Sailing Again - Luffy & Chopper

P.O.P Sailing Again: Monkey D. Luffy

Here are the promo posters for the new P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates) Sailing Again series with Luffy & Chopper. As mentioned before the figures pre-orders are closed and sold out. However seeing that these figures aren't that hard to get (maybe Nami), I would either wait until their release or check out Otacute since they haven't had their pre-orders in yet.

P.O.P Sailing Again: Tony Tony Chopper

P.O.P Sailing Again - Nami

P.O.P Sailing Again - Nami

MegaHouse has just released their new P.O.P (Portraits of Pirates) line Sailing Again for their Time Skip figures. For those keeping up with the pre-orders, P.O.P Nami, Luffy, and Chopper will be released sometime tonight. Keep a look out for them on AmiAmi, Otacute, HLJ, and other Online Stores. I don't have the direct links at the moment, but even if I post them up they may be already sold out. Personally I am going to skip this series and just continue collecting the Banpresto figures just because of the cost and the amount of details on the characters is already satisfying. But here is Nami's promo poster. Enjoy and keep on collecting!
