White Ranger Tiger Power!
With the up coming release of S.H.Figuarts Mighty Moprhin White Ranger upon us, Bluefin via Facebook gives us our first in hand preview of the figure by revealing his US exclusive packaging!
White Ranger is due out in October, retailing for 44.99 USD.
Similar to the Riders on Stage promo awhile back, Bandai is launching a new promotion involving Tamashi Act Stage stands. This time, the give away will be themed around Akibaranger Season 2.
Unlike the last promo however, they will be giving out decal sheets to be applied to Tamashi Act Stage 4 stands.
Any Super Sentai related S.H.Figuarts that was released at mass retail will be eligible for this give away in addition to the Munya Munya Zuban and Moya Moya Z Cune roleplay toys.
The three Akibarangers will be getting their own decals along with TyranoRanger, Hurricane Red, and Ryuranger. Z Cune Aoi will also have her own personal stand and there’ll even be one that has the S.H.Figuarts logo and slogan on it. The promo event will begin September 21st.
Put this one in the rumor column for now. Bluefin’s twitter account just posted the following:
if you’re interested in Big Bad Beetleborgs you should speak up #beetleborgs
What this possibly means is that Bandai Tamashii is looking at producing Juukou B-Fighter or even B-Fighter Kabuto figuarts. If that’s the case then fans in the US could definitely expect to see Big Bad Beetleborgs/Metallix releases of these figuarts! Bluefin wants to hear it from fans that they’re ready for B-Fighter/Beetleborgs figuarts! Make your interest known by posting on Bluefin’s twitter and facebook pages. Let’s get it together people!
S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Blade just got released last month, and has already proved to be a hit among collectors. So much, that it seems the demand for him was underestimated and his second-hand value on sites such as Mandarake are much higher than expected.
Well if you missed out the first time and don’t want to pay these prices, fear not! The Tamashii Nations website has just revealed he will ALREADY be getting a reissue in November for the same price of 3990 yen. That’s pretty impressive for a figure that’s only just been released!
Bluefin via Facebook just announced that they will be distributing the S.H.Figuarts Agito Burning Form in North America.
Retailing for 40.99 USD, Agito Burning will be released January 2014.
Bluefin has apparently decided to open its own online storefront for future releases!
At the moment the merchandise offered is minimal aside from some remaining San Diego Comic-Con exclusives- including the SH Figuarts Samurai Sentai Shinkenger figure pack!
Buyers interested in future Tamashii releases should probably keep an eye on this new page for early deals. :)
Thanks to member OPTICS for the heads-up!

The Bluefin/Tamashii Twitter account has confirmed that SH Figuarts Armored TyrannoRanger will be released in October in the United States, a full month ahead of the previously-reported Japanese schedule!
It appears the US buyers have provided a much-needed boost to Figuarts sales with the previous Zyuranger releases and Bluefin probably hopes to keep the profit margins up. :)
