Well they're still sculpting her aren't they? No point putting up a pre-order for something still in the midst of development.

Oh, I wasn't aware if they were done with the sculpting or not. That would affect when they'd put her up.

It is looking like she will be the last Sailor Moon character to see a release, unless there will be villains or the Sailor Stars.

Well, Sailor Uranus is now in-stock.

A bit strange that Uranus is in stock (I received my POS confirmation the other day) without Neptune, but at least we know she's coming. The last 2 person group Bandai released in the figurarts line, that I'm aware of was Daft Punk and they both came out at BBTS on the same day.

Do we have any photo evidence of Pluto being in production? I hope they announce her soon, as I planned to get the whole senshi team, and as I don't plan to get Tuxedo Kamen or Chibi-Moon, Once Neptune arrives, Setsuna is the only remaining pre-order I'm worried about.

Yeah, I was expecting a Uranus and Neptune double pack too or at least both released on the same day. Who is going to buy one without the other? It is just weird.

Yup. I'm not shipping out my POL without Neptune arriving.

On the subject of Pluto, the only pic, maybe, is this one.

It's just weird to me that Pluto would be last. Tuxedo Mask and Chibi-Usa coming out, sure. I'm excited to get both of them. But before Pluto just doesn't feel right to me. *Shrug*

The only thing I can think is that they are doing this on purpose to get to the collectors looking at these in a similar way that I am. (sorry, not trying to sound vain or self-important, it's just an observation.)

They know some collectors only are interested in getting the Senshi. For the inner planets they had to release all 5 first, as people only buying the core group would backlash hard if say, Chibi-Usa was released before Venus or Jupiter.

However for the people willing to buy both the inner and outer planets, but not interested in Chibi, Mamoru or if they release enemies, if know if they release all 9 first before listing any other figures in the line, that many after getting Pluto will tune any other releases out, and lose them as potential buyers. Now by releasing Chibi, Mamoru and potential others first (Beryl, Four Kings, Serenity, Endymion, Dark Moon, Naru....) they end up with a number of collectors who may not be interested in them, looking at store shelves and seeing online listings every time they look for Pluto is another potential chance that someone could go "Hey, why don't I get that one as well."

As a business plan, it's great in creating potential sales, but should there be too many figures before Pluto, they may risk a few people not only say "I'm not waiting anymore" but some of those who did get them looking to sell off some of the ones they already have.

Or......... They are just having an issue getting the staff right, so the orb can detach and she'll released as soon as that is dealt with.

Well well, well. Thank god for C3 in Hong Kong.

PLUTO CONFIRMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Also, Super Sailor Moon



And, lastly, Sailor V

Yay!

Now I need to let my walet recover from my recent spending spree and at least get the inner senshi (I only have Sailor Moon- I did get Mars but she turned out to be a bootleg...)

About time.

I just hope that as super and V are painted that we don't need to wait for those to be released first.

Thanks, Trike! Ooh, I like that Sailor V. Must-own. Not 100% sure on Super Sailor Moon, though. And of course, Pluto.

What, are we not gonna talk about Zoicite dressed as Moon here?

Holy crap! They're gonna sell that? God, I hope they sell that. Oh, hopefully that means they'll be selling Figuart figures of the villains, too!

LOL I saw that too fast and read it as zombie instead of Zoicite.

Interesting, but not interested at this point.

I don't see why they wouldn't. It's from the same announcement and display at the same show as Super Moon and Sailor V.

Agreed on hoping for more villains, even if they're Tamashii Web exclusives.

That would be awesome. And thanks for the pic, too. Sorry I didn't say that earlier.

Super Sailor Moon is up for preorder!

Pretty cheap, too!

Sailor Neptune is now in stock.

Now Haruka and Michiru can be together again.

Yep, received my POL update earlier today.

Seeing There is still no news about the pre-order for Pluto, and my POL currently is sitting with Uranus, Neptune & Card Captor Sakura..... ship now.

Now with my standard luck in matters such as this, the pre-order should drop soon.

Uranus and Neptune are pretty damned good. Please let me know how Sakura is.

In the shadow of the Break-Neck and Quickslinger releases, This morning Sailor V went up for pre-order.

And Striker, Sakura is good. If you are interested get it now while it is still in the first edition collectors box. Looks like the Clow Card box with a clear sleeve over top.
