D.P.C.F Black & White Edition

D.P.C.F (Doors Painting Collection Figure) has decided to bring out a Black & White edition of the Three Musketeers. Basically it's just a 2-tone version from their colored version but just costs a lot more because it's a limited edition. I assume that D.P.C.F had a lot of these still in stock and decided to make a limited edition of them. For those that already have the colored edition, I personally wouldn't get the limited edition just because the colored version was done really well and it's a shame that they just made a limited edition of just black and white. I wish they did a alternative color instead. For those that are planning on getting the limited edition, I would wait for a while until the prices goes down, just like how the original colored version did. Enjoy.

Banpresto Grand Line Series

Here are some update on some awesome Banpresto Grand Line series. We finally got some new updates on the Grand Line Lady line along with some up coming Grand Line Men as well as Children series as well. From Grand Line Men we have Franky and Brook; for Grand Line Lady we have Olivia and Robin; finally for Grand Line Children we have Sanji and Usopp.

For sure I am collecting the Grand Line Men and Lady, but will be passing on with the Grand Line Children series. The details on them for sure is spot on and they are in perfect scale for the P.O.P (Portrait of Pirates), but not for the Grand Line Men/Lady series. They are a great addition to your collection, but I will have to pass on these guys. Here are some photo's from the Choppermania Blog. Take a look at their site as well! Enjoy!

Banpresto Grand Line Men Vol12. - Sanji

The day has come when Banpresto's Vol.12 Grand Line Men Sanji finally came. I have been waiting for both Sanji and Zoro to be released after seeing the prototypes over the internet for some time. Looking at the details, as always, Banpresto does a nice job at the painting and sculpt. Compared to the large, MegaHouse figures, Banpresto captured Sanji's emotion really well. He's clean, simple, and his facial expression is spot on. I will keep this short and let you judge for yourself on the quality of Sanji's figure. Enjoy!

One Piece Stacking Vignette Box

Found some interesting One Piece candy box toys I found while looking around AmiAmi and thought I would write a short review about them. Bandai has just released their orders for Stacking Vignette One Piece - Episode Fishman Island figures. These come with 5 characters per box, along with a piece of gum. These mini figures comes with a character piece as well as a counter part, which can also be put together with one another.

The figures can be put together along with the counter parts which creates a mini model of the Fishman Island Arc. The set of 5 comes out to be 2,040 JPY or roughly around 25$ Canadian depending on the shipping will change the final price. Take a look at these figures and 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!

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.

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!!

P.O.P Strong World Sanji & Brook

P.O.P Strong World Brook

They have finally came! My long waited Strong World Sanji and Brook figures. Just like how the images looked online Brook is now probably my most favored Strong World P.O.P at the moment from the whole series. I am going to assume that since Brook has many different posses and facial expressions, this may be one of the reason's why Sanji is a static character.

Sadly the Sanji that came in has a little scratch on the right neck collar. For those that are ordering Sanji Strong World series, take a good look at his neck collar! So making this blog short, here are some photos. Enjoy!
