Well I couldn't wait for Amazon any longer. Bought 3 Guyver IIIs off another website.

False alarm with my Guyver III purchase. Turns out the store I ordered them from, didn't have the figure in stock. It was a pre-order. Despite saying "availability in stock" on the product page.

I cancelled the order, and now it looks like I really do have to wait for Amazon. It looks like the entire supply to US sellers is really delayed. No one in the US has it in stock. Did it take this long for Guyver IIF to reach the US?

Sorry to hear that dude. I dont know whats up with US stock. I always pre-order from Japan. Had a look for you, but only Nippon Yasan still have stock and they are charging $100. Hope you get it soon!

I preordered from Japan and only paid $130 US for 2 Guyver 3's shipped to my house. They arrived in 3 days from the release date. 

I don't know if I can accept 100 bucks. At the store I was ordering from before I cancelled, I was paying 215 for 3 of them with free shipping, I thought that was a good deal. Hopefully Amazon will match that.

Mine only came to $65 each with free 3 day shipping.  Should have gotten a third one.

Where did you buy yours from?

I bought thru AmiAmi.  With Guyver 3 figma they had a preorder special that was 20% off plus free shipping.  So I bought two

amiami pretty good, ive bought all my starwars figures through them, they've never let me down

Yeah, amiami, CDJapan, Nippon Yasan are all great, but you have to pre-order.

If you miss the slot you're screwed. The never tend to re-stock and when they do the prices go up.

I delayed on pre-ordering because of the arm issue with Guyver IIF. Since the sculpts are almost the same. I had figured the same issue could be present, but it doesn't seem so. Several reviews on YouTube make no mention of it, where's reviews on Guyver IIF, had the arm issue present often.

 

I made a huge mistake.

Guyver III is in stock at BigBadToyStore, just an FYI.

Also, I ordered two Guyver IIIs off eBay last week, and they arrived today. Damn good figure, love it. I aim to buy two more.

 

Now for the inevitable male Guyver II...

So Winter Wonder Fest is coming up, Feb 18th I believe. C'mon male Guyver II!

Indeed it is, and as much as I want to climb aboard the hype train with you my brother, I have doubt's we'll see any more from Figma until the manga resumes. Just based off the way GSC operate.

If we do see a new Figma though i'd prefer it to be a character we've seen more recently, like Apollyon or Aptom.

Or Arkanphel!!! Or perhaps a full size Grieselda... Or a Sho figure complete with snap on armor!!! I can wish, right?

How about Figma releases of Libertus, Bio-Freezer, Aptom OmegaBlast, Guyver/Aptom hybrid, Empowered Zerbebuth, Unus, and either of the Exceeds? I wouldn't mind a new Marmot or Gregole figure.  

Don't forget to fill out the Max Factory survey about what figmas would you like to see next.

I wonder if Figma can do a release of the next chapter of the manga? That would be nice...

I figure the male Guyver II because that rounds out all the Guyver units of importance. Complete the circle.

I hear ya! With no word from the man himself, it seems just as likely to happen.

So Winter Wonder Festival 2019 is going on right now. And over at the Goodsmile Max Factory section, there was a Guyver I and unpainted prototype Guyver III.

They couldn't possibly be redoing Guyver III could they?

They are 1/6 scale action figures.

Oh that's a shame....I don't collect that scale.

 

*sigh* 

 

I guess Figma Guyver II Male will never happen.

I can't wait for them to be released since I collect all the Guyver figures.  I even have a 1/6 scale Griselda statue being made.   I would also like a Guyver 2 figma and other figmas characters as well
