Pre-ordered these two today. Honest to god these guys are worth the money. Better now to get this while you can. Otherwise you fellas may regret it later, likely having to pay $400-$600 for this set easy on the secondary market.

Dumb question, but what is the best place to purchase X-Plus?

If you're in the USA, AwesomeCollector (https://awesomecollector.com) ... prices are close to Japanese retail, he offers a payment plan, and he seems to be getting stuff shipped out of Japan pretty consistently. The covid thing is causing a major hassle with shipping out of Japan. Once that shipping chaos is resolved, there will be times that Hobby Search (https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/mecha/) will be less expensive, and faster, but right now, AwesomeCollector is fastest and his tiny markup is worth getting your figure now, rather than it sitting in a warehouse in Japan for the next 4 months...

AC does a great job shipping, even during Covid.

Contemplating buying one of the Biollantes that showed up in BBTS but that would make me unable to buy whatever gigantic is coming up. God my wallet needs a break.

AC and Flossies is good for people in Europe too but be advised you will need to pay customs as Europe has no XPlus suppliers.
Which sucks as we end up paying more for same exact figures as people in Japan or US

Maybe they'll re-release him as a vinyl next year, if the DefoReal did well in sales.
That Deforeal almost feels like an anomaly. But fingers crossed!

So this is the month for 25cm G19, hope the Burning G19 pre order starts soon and maybe show us the Ric version too.

I got money put aside for Gigantic Burning so it's just 25cm G19 for now. But overall I've got quite enough X-Plus figures for the year, bought 1 Gigantic and 2 30cm already so I'm happy :D

Wonder Festival has been cancelled so any reveals will probably be through their social media accounts.

X-Plus is holding their own festival... second half is tomorrow night, August 5th (Japan time).

The first half showed us the Gamera DefoReal, the 30cm Ceratosaurus, the Gigantic Baltan and some silhouetted UltraKaiju.

Couple new Deforeals, Mecha-King Ghidorah is still on the table, and still no word on the 25cm Kiryugoji or 30cm Megalon from earlier this year.
