This is my 3rd. Received first already and waiting for the 2nd to release. It’s usually a 50% deposit though. Not sure why it was a complete payment up front this time.

Bummer that they just now showed off Hawkeye, only after it’s too late to cancel Ronin, but after seeing the movie I guess I won’t mind having both.

Got my Ant-Man, Widow and Thanos today and they’re great as expected. Loving the likenesses on Ant-Man and Widow, and Thanos just looks awesome.

Great shots! Might have to bite the bullet on Antman. Found out today that the civil war cap head fits on the Infinity War body, which might save me some money if I can get over the slightly different skin tones. 🤷🏽*♂️

He's already up on Anime-Export. He's a web exclusive so he won't be at the regular stores. I don't know if it is a Japan only exclusive or not.

He is a web exclusive. Meaning he'll have limited distribution even in Japan.

With the exception of Thanos, all the figures in the single pack without one of the Tamashii effects are technically "Japan Only" (or rather, "Global Only with exception to the US"). Hasbro holds the "master license" for Marvel (and Star Wars) figures at all size scales. It's a way they control the market and eliminate competition. It's only when the figure is over $75-$80 price point that another manufacturer can make them and distribute them in the US as they are deemed an "Adult Collectible". Tamashii has paired their "US Releases" of these figures with a big accessory (like their Tamashii Effects - Stands, Explosions, etc.) and pushed them over the $75-$80 price-point. The figures are normally around $50-$60 USD in Japan which doesn't meet the US threshold for release as an "Adult Collectible".

Yes, I'm aware of all that, but I was referring to them being literally exclusive. Rocket Racoon and Infinity War Thor were specifically labeled as "Japan Only." They haven't and won't get US releases.

Hawkeye doesn’t look like he has the “Japan only” label so there’s potential for him to get a bluefin release. The problem is so far we haven’t even gotten release announcements from bluefin about the other characters that’s already been shown outside of Thanos and the mark 50 weapon set. I’m afraid they might have given up on these special bundled releases.
