I picked this up Amiami as it was 48% off. I adore Tiger & Bunny and when i saw this i wanted it but the 26000 yen price put me right off so when this went up at half off i dived in!
The 12PM line is Bandais version of super high quality 1/6 Toys ( Tiger standing just under 13" ), they have also recently released a 1/6 Chogokin C3PO which looks insane with around 80% Diecast. So yeah it's like Hot Toys but not dolls :P
I can say right off the bat if i had paid full price i would have been disappointed, i think he is worth his money at 13K but any more i wouldn't have been too happy. Don't get me wrong he is pure quality through and through, from the thick glossy heavy cardboard used for the box to perfect paints, metal joints and those killer LEDS....i just don't see where the rest of the money is going.
The only thing he is missing is his Huge fist from the Good Luck mode. Bandai didn't care to include it or it's gonna be a web EX and will sell for stupid money.
Overall for what i paid i love him and i'm so looking forward to getting Bunny now to join him.
Plenty of pics here, maybe too many but he's just awesome!
