My Anime Figure Preorders for 2023!

[@ZuccoFigures]

The Ole Monday night upload. They never see it comin.

[@vcenzo12]

I could listen to him talk about figures all day

[@ZuccoFigures]

Too kind, Thanks!

[@wyldphinniweeb]

YAAAAAS CHAZZ IT UP CHAZZ IT UUUP! 🎉🎊💫 Also, happy to hear you decided to pick up Judai as well honestly, this is such an epic pre-order list for 2023! Really looking forward to your future videos on these figures!

[@ZuccoFigures]

In the end I felt like I had to, though I'm a little worried about shipping costs since his box is a bit on the larger side lol

[@wyldphinniweeb]

@@ZuccoFigures Oh, I feel you. He was a day one pre-order . As I added him to cart only two words went through my mind “ surface shipping“ 🥲

[@Kaigai_Kaiju]

If you're still on the fence about buying Houshou Marine I say grab it while you can. I received mine a little over a week ago and she's absolutely stunning. Though my one complaint is the sandy/rocky base is actually hollow so it does feel a bit on the cheap side when touching it though it still looks great. Marine herself is pretty much flawless especially her face and eye decals, she looks just as good as the Korone figure from Spirit Tale if not better.

[@ZuccoFigures]

Sadly I don't think Korone stands a chance against this Marine figure even though I love it still. You're right tho, probably won't be available much longer from the looks of it

[@DTTCReviews]

The Amakuni Power was an instant preorder for me and I can't wait for 2024 to roll around now... XD

[@ZuccoFigures]

You know, I guess she shouldn't technically be here considering she's 2024 lol, but still, definitely the best Power to date.

[@verabathory]

Love that you mentioned Nikaido! I've subscribed so fast. Lol Yhank you for the cool vid!

[@sleepynyanfigures]

my most anticipated pre order for 2023 is the komi b-style! i think she came out beautiful. her hair sculpt is amazing and i think they captured her “cool side” shyness really well.

[@ZuccoFigures]

Trueeee, Freeing did a good job with her

[@WayneLLC]

Always gonna like first, and to spend my time appreciating the rest of it over the course of the week!

[@caynaxpout]

the Zucco special is back! nice PO's, your gf seems to have quite a few of the same PO's as me lol. im so pumped for February with Taiga bunny, Asuka Radio Eva 2 and Hokusai! and also the Alter Rei in a few months. can't believe you don't own any Asuka and Rei figures yet o.O

[@ZuccoFigures]

I'm the rare individual who only likes Eva and isn't head over heels for it I suppose

[@FoxGameing1]

My most anticipated pre order for 2023 is the MX-Chan 1/7 and Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout Ryza (Reisalin Stout) 1/6 perfections, love your videos Zucco.

[@AngelicxKaede]

Never heard of kappa hobby until today. Incidentally, they still had the waddle dee up for preorder that I forgot to get so xD Excited for my first purchase with them. Lots of cool figures in your line up! Not many that I have myself, so excited to see the unboxings.

[@ZuccoFigures]

Yeah I forget how I stumbled upon them, but they are partnered with GSC and while I haven't gotten any figures from them yet, a close friend of mine has and it went smoothly

[@gh0stdem0n666]

i aint got that much to spend but i got my preorders in too, cant wait to get them.

[@nekro_nemesis]

The Sekiro and Nia figures look fuckin sick :D Solid Pre orders my dude

[@eileen88]

i only preorder one, and its Ryza from Alter! i hope it turns out well... solid preorder list btw!

[@Griff03]

Out of the figures in your video I have Aqua and MX-Chan pre ordered, Since those two are both quite pricey I am not in a hurry to order anything else soon.

[@danaltamirano2546]

My most anticipated figures are Mx Chan and the Artoria "Under the same sky" (5th anniversary) version. It might be up there for the best Saber scale, alongside Stronger's dx figure.

[@Iron700man]

I had the Ryza figure pre ordered but because of the delay I decided to cancel, since it clashed with other pre orders, so what I did is pre order another Ryza figure (PHAT company in November) to replace the hole in my heart. I have the Alter, Rei figure pre ordered but I am conflicted if to keep it as April is overloaded with pre orders for me.

[@WeebInvestments69]

My most anticipated PO is Transfer student Lilith by Asanagi :3 I am really not into male figures, but the Aki figure looks so good 😍

[@Melantha_Twinzzone]

I have more than 50 PO for this year I think 😅😅😅 but if I have to choose I'm probably the most excited about Onmyoji Shiranui by Wings Inc. and about Raiden's resin statue by FA Studio ❤️‍🔥

[@samssyrandall5408]

I missed the preorder for bunny Taiga after spending too long debating if I needed that giant of a figure, figured I'd lost my chance and Taiga just wasn't meant to be in my life, but then they announced tiger Taiga and you bet your ass I ordered her in a split second! I'm glad I missed bunny Taiga because I wouldn't have tiger Taiga in my life otherwise

[@noobdoggaming8842]

yay an upload! my most anticipated are that Honolulu but finishline Baltimore just as much! waiting on Aoi bunny first bunny figure in standing position ! 1/4 standing position is just too much!!

[@ZuccoFigures]

Finishline Baltimore is such a treat. Oddly though I find the after school version of her more appealing for some reason. It's definitely not the better figure, but there's something about it that I just like a lot

[@noobdoggaming8842]

I also po'd that baseball cap luminostar 1/7 honkai impact elf with the cake azur lane 1/7 girly with the bookshelf and im debating sepia belmont figure, that figure looks like it just smashed down a room's wall to enter it and it could match a few others i have

[@ZuccoFigures]

@@noobdoggaming8842 be careful with Sepia as she has problems with her feet and breaks easily. GSC is issuing replacement parts and whatnot but if you buy it used you might not be able to take advantage of that

[@pepperflaminggazer226]

I need this. Thanks Zucco!

[@SpiderLantern]

One of my most anticipated pre-orders is the Ironmouse nendoroid. Other then it being adorable I am long time fan of Mousey. The scale I'm most looking forward to is the re-release of Yoruichi from Bleach by Megahouse. About a year ago Big Bad Toy Store had restock of her like a day. I wanted her but I hesitated because I hadn't watched Bleach in such a long time. With Thousand Year Blood War getting animated and Megahouse doing an official re-release you better believe I jumped on that day one.

[@ZuccoFigures]

I should probably get her Nendoroid, I kinda forgot about it since I don't buy too many Nendoroids these days, but I definitely enjoy her content

[@AnimeWill]

Yeah, I think I may have to order that MX Chan as well.

[@ZuccoFigures]

Based taste

[@AnimeWill]

@@ZuccoFigures Ugh. I shouldn't have watched this video lol

[@EvaUnit1301]

That alter touhou figure is killing me. I want her so badly but the price is out of my range for the year with my current POs. 😅 Debating canceling something for her because I KNOW Alter is going to deliver on Flandre. Really exciting PO list for you! Looking forward to hearing you talk about all of these when they arrive!

[@ZuccoFigures]

Once wonfes is over I can finally delve back in to some figure unboxings/reviews!

[@MichaelSmith-zw5fu]

Real annoyed I missed the chance to order that MX-Chan

[@ZuccoFigures]

There's usually extra stock near release so just keep your eyes on her

[@bambooex]

Only thing I preordered out of this list is the amakuni power. Are the dorohedoros licensed?

[@ZuccoFigures]

I wanna say yes, both Three Zero and Figurama are known to get the license for their figures

[@VK4502B]

could you link the figure from 36:18? For some reason I am unable to find it.

[@ZuccoFigures]

I'm unsure if I can link it due to it being a castoff figure and youtube might get mad at me, but if you type in Vibrastar on AmiAmi it'll pop up

[@VK4502B]

@@ZuccoFigures I found it, thank you! Seems like I misunderstood it in the video.

[@ZuccoFigures]

@@VK4502B It's sorta my fault for not putting text on the screen and not saying her full name cause I forgot it at the time, but I prioritized getting the video out so I wouldn't fall behind on work

[@VK4502B]

@@ZuccoFigures Nah, not your fault. It's all good. Thank you for answering.

[@suhben]

I adored the Dorohedoro anime so much that I collected all of the manga volumes not yet adapted, although time hasn't allowed me to get reading them. That Nikaido figure for sure peaks my interest, glad you showed it off! Any idea if she can stand on her own or is a base of sorts involved?

[@ZuccoFigures]

There's no base, but she should be able to stand on her own if you use basic poses. Some of these figures get pretty hard to find so I'd recommend getting her if you think she looks good, just be prepared for it to smell like gasoline when you open it lol. $150 for a big figure with good accessories isn't bad at all imo. Shin and Caiman are harder to get these days, but Ebisu is probably still available at a few places and I recommend her if you like her as well

[@suhben]

@@ZuccoFigures In the video you said your Nikaido will arrive later than June? How long do you reckon BigBadToyStore will take to ship her out? The BBTS site says 2nd quarter of 2023, which I would assume accounts for June. I have no experience with BBTS, so I am curious.

[@_elliehime]

I got the waddle dee nendoroid for $100 I got lucky. I still have his re-release on preorder too

[@ZuccoFigures]

Honestly not too bad for aftermarket back then. Anything past that I wouldn't be able to spend

[@_elliehime]

@Zucco oh, I got it at the beginning of this month~

[@ZuccoFigures]

@@_elliehime ah, sorry I guess I misunderstood. Well you can never have enough Waddle Dees so it's all good

[@poteto4532]

The Marine just got delivered some days ago, I can't wait, she really looks amazing. My most anticipated figure I think is the estream denji, never thought i was gonna buy something from them let alone that one with that price tag, but I had a nice amount of points about to expire on TOM and got a really nice deal so I went for it. I'm still on the fence with that power, I also agree that they nailed that figure, finally a good looking power figure! But on the other hand I want the anime to progress and see what will be release of her, I'm hoping for some figure of her true form, like that statue from yo-yo studio which I'm in love with. Other than that I'm impatiently waiting for Bocchi figures to go on preorder 👀

[@ZuccoFigures]

I missed out on Denji, probably shoulda went for it but hated the price at the time. I'm sure I'll get a figure of him eventually though

[@hewhosays7979]

Many of out preorders match, I also got the kirby nendo, Luminoustar, Samus, hoping someone cancels nia, but I also got Meta Knoght and king dedede nendos, Kobeni and Atelier Sophie nendo, ORAS May from pokemon, and I'm waiting for the first 4 figures Sonic Adventure pose pvc figure and see how that turns out

[@ZuccoFigures]

I think if you're fast enough around release you'll be able to get Nia. There's always extra stock, but I gotta imagine alot of people will be hunting her. Also YES Where the hell is that sonic scale?! I need it to go up for preorder already

[@JPCollectables]

Ok, I can't do this any more.. Hokusai pre-ordered 💸😭

[@CourageousGoldfish]

Your partner has great taste!!

[@kuzuryugundam6670]

As a Danganronpa fan I’ve been loving the announcements though I wish another company would do non bunny scales other than phat, as much as I love Kaede we’ll be lucky to get her in 2024 (not 2025) and with the chiaki rerelease having major qc issues it’s really shaken my faith on them so I’m praying this turns out nice and is not riddled with issues as there aren’t many other options for companies doing scales for this series. 😬🤞

[@ZuccoFigures]

This industry makes no sense sometimes. I think it's pretty obvious Danganronpa sells well so why don't more manufacturers step up?

[@CarlosAlbertoGarcíaJiménez]

I hope the Lewisia Aqua figure still available next year I really like how she looks in this version but the thing is that I going to buy the Arknights Schwarz figure and I don't think I can afford another figure after that.

[@ZuccoFigures]

I'm sure it will be available because of the price and likely the shipping costs

[@CarlosAlbertoGarcíaJiménez]

@@ZuccoFigures I hope so.

[@haoyuchen1752]

My most anticipated PO is Black Rock Shooter: HxxG Edition. Though I don't watch the series, the figure is too bad as s for me to overlook. Cant wait!

[@ZuccoFigures]

That figure is sick. Will probably be tempted to grab it once released

[@springwhisperer]

i promise i'll work really hard (i wanna be an architect) so i can travel all over the world and get all of these figure :)

[@ShonenJump121]

I think it hurt less getting that Power with free shipping on Crunchyroll, even though I don't usually buy from them because aside from US stores, which she is very expensive - going into $300 territory Amiami is for sure going to be expensive on that shipping. I was on the fence about Honolulu. I would like the boat armaments' to her, because it looks cool but man. The price hike for that is absurd. Like 14-15k yen higher or something like that, which is crazy. I think I like the Illustrious by Brilliant Journey and the Azuma by Alter more but those are also quite expensive. I'm glad I haven't fell completely done the Azur Lane rabbit hole, so there's only 3 or so figures I am interested in.

[@ZuccoFigures]

I'm tempted to buy Power from Crunchyroll but they are notorious for poor shipping and getting her later kinda sucks when you review figures lol. Weird issue to have but ultimately one I have to think about

[@ShonenJump121]

@@ZuccoFigures I like to tempt fate, you could say. I haven't had an issue yet at least not "yet". With many places the biggest issue tends to be shipping. I wish at times I had the money to pay for higher shipping like DHL or EMS, but thinking about paying 60-70 USD for shipping makes me wince.

[@ZuccoFigures]

@@ShonenJump121 a damaged box is probably worth saving 70 bucks in most situations if you just assume the worst from the start lol

[@ShonenJump121]

@@ZuccoFigures With figures I could handle the increased prices, if the shipping wasn't so damn high. That's like the main thing, . But expensive figures and higher shipping prices now is the wombo combo I never wanted to experience. The worst timeline.

[@Gamer-g2v1r]

I don't think Nia's base is worse than the other Xeno girls. In fact, it's actually the best base, since it at least represents something from the game she's from. (A Core Crystal) My only complaint is that they could've made the base a Flesh Eater Core Crystal instead of a normal one in accordance to Nia's character. (Flesh Eater Core Crystals have red spots mixed in)

[@ZuccoFigures]

I mean I understand what it is, but it doesn't change the fact that it's a flat blue diamond in one color with no definition or sculpting detail. I think they could have tried a bit harder

[@Gamer-g2v1r]

@@ZuccoFigures Well, I'm not saying it's good. But the other Xeno girls' bases aren't good either. I'm just saying it looks better than them.

[@strobe118]

Is this Tekken music? 🤔

[@ZuccoFigures]

Yeah, Your Sunset from Tekken Tag Tournament 2

[@meekatoblerone5242]

Wait, so you are NOT getting Hokusai saber did I hear that right? Edit: oh oh sorry, I missed the part where you said your girlfriend lends you figures

[@ZuccoFigures]

Sorry if it was slightly confusing. My girlfriend is and I plan to cover it, but I'm not technically preordering it lol. I should have worded that better

[@meekatoblerone5242]

@@ZuccoFiguresmy bad you worded it fine I just missed it somehow had to go back and look for it lol

[@ZuccoFigures]

@@meekatoblerone5242 I can see it being confusing if someone doesn't pay attention to my intro or skips around, which is something to consider. Also I'm sure some people just throw these videos on in the background since they are long so it can catch them off guard

[@rewrew3182]

My most anticipated PO is going to have to be the Azur Lane Baltimore Finish Line Flagbearer that APEX is coming out with in September. I'm obsessed with the pose and base and I'll have nothing that looks like it in my collection. I also think the price is really reasonable.

[@ZuccoFigures]

Oh yeah that figure is a great deal all around. Apex continues to deliver quality at great prices

[@tpuefol]

Music gave me a bit of a headache on this one and almost stopped watching. Never really noticed it before.

[@ZuccoFigures]

dang, no love for the tekken music. I assumed it was quiet enough to be fine but I guess I'll take note of that for next time

[@supergamerguy64]

Some really good ones in there. I too am getting the Honolulu because busty redhead. The YuGiOh figures are really awesome. I saw one of Black Rose Dragon, and while it's awesome, I'd rather have one of it's owner Aki/Akiza. If they make a figure of her and it's even decent, i'm getting it. That said, I do respect you getting your game on by Chazzing it up. It's also nice to see Xenoblade getting good scales. None I've committed to yet, but at least they exist. That BB looked really good, but I think I passed because it was 1/8th? Plus I'm not as interested in BB or Melt. And I can confirm from the game, Lip, Melt, and especially BB all have extremely long hair. In that form specifically BB's hair is so long that it touches the ground when she's standing, which is why she has a pedestal of tentacles to stop that happening.

[@ZuccoFigures]

Yeah she's a 1/8th, guess they didnt want to commit to all that hair at any bigger size lol
