Serebii Posted March 15, 2013 Author Posted March 15, 2013 This games looking expensive for completionists already and this is only set one! Lookie what I've done http://www.serebii.net/rumbleu/figures/series1.shtml http://www.serebii.net/rumbleu/figures/promo.shtml
Debug Mode Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Ahh looks like you're pretty much prepared! Good work man. I'm definitely going to give the gacha machine a go, and if by some miracle I don't get a spare in my first 5 capsules, I'll buy another 5. A part of me wants to get the download code just to get the special Pikachu but that's what they want me to do and I probably wont be buying a Wii U until at least next year!

The download card is only valid for 150 days
dazzybee Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 How the hell are all these download codes and eshop vouchers NOT NFC enabled?
Serebii Posted March 16, 2013 Author Posted March 16, 2013 How the hell are all these download codes and eshop vouchers NOT NFC enabled? Because it's cheaper to print and register a randomised code than it is to embed a NFC chip into them?
Guy Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Nintendo should be planning to do this capsule figure thing for at least some of the trophies in the new Smash Bros game. That or cards. Cards would be good too.
Magnus Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Those figurines are awful. If they'd just made them look like on that download card, they would have been so much cuter. Instead they're all angular and look like baby's first 3D.

Instead they're all angular and look like baby's first 3D. Yeah I don't get why they've done this, maybe if the figures in the game were paper craft I'd understand it but why have they gone full on crazy with the angles? EDIT: Oh wait, they DO have a papercraft-esque look in game, I always thought they were smoother for some reason
Retro_Link Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 EDIT: Oh wait, they DO have a papercraft-esque look in game, I always thought they were smoother for some reasonProbably all the bloom.
Magnus Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 It doesn't look like they used a papercraft-esque look for the models so much as they went with low-polygon models for some reason. The in-game models end up looking a lot smoother thanks to the bloom and shading, but it just looks weird in real life.
FireMeowth Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 I noticed that all the Series 1 figurines can also be found on the download card illustration. Hopefully this means we're getting a Meowth figurine at some point (well, I guess it's one of the most likely candidates for a figurine anyways, but, you know).

Yeah, I came to the same conclusion. It's quite probable that the first four or five series will be Pokémon from that I'm also irrationally expecting a Sylveon figure to be given at the movie
Debug Mode Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 I'm also irrationally expecting a Sylveon figure to be given at the movie Looks like I'm buying a ticket, walking in to get the figure and walking straight out!
Serebii Posted March 16, 2013 Author Posted March 16, 2013 Looks like I'm buying a ticket, walking in to get the figure and walking straight out! Not interested in the Shiny Genesect event that will also occur?
Debug Mode Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Not interested in the Shiny Genesect event that will also occur? ..Maybe just a little bit. Hopefully one of the new exchange students that's coming this month likes Pokemon enough for me to drag them along
Serebii Posted March 16, 2013 Author Posted March 16, 2013 ..Maybe just a little bit. Hopefully one of the new exchange students that's coming this month likes Pokemon enough for me to drag them along Well my Sylveon theory is just that, a theory. It'd be a missed opportunity if not though
Serebii Posted April 15, 2013 Author Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) Series 2 Figures revealed Got some higher resolution screencaps I'm really digging the art style in this game Edited April 15, 2013 by Serebii Automerged Doublepost
Retro_Link Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 That's a MewTwo figure isn't it... meaning they haven't changed his design and it is a different Mew evolution right?
Serebii Posted April 15, 2013 Author Posted April 15, 2013 That's a MewTwo figure isn't it... meaning they haven't changed his design and it is a different Mew evolution right? If you're referring to this Then that's an alternate form of Mewtwo, not an evolution, not a new Pokémon and certainly not a replacement of the original
Retro_Link Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) So it'll be called MewTwo v.2?... or MewTwoVeeTwo? :p Audio Edited April 15, 2013 by Retro_Link
Serebii Posted April 15, 2013 Author Posted April 15, 2013 So it'll be called MewTwo v.2?... or MewTwoVeeTwo? :p Audio No, it'll be called Mewtwo _____ Form(e), like other alternate forms. For example Land Forme - Sky Forme Incarnate Forme - Therian Forme Ordinary Form - Resolute Form And so forth. So many people are acting like this new form is REPLACING the original Mewtwo. It isn't
Debug Mode Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 Hey guys, look what the Pokemon Centre here at Sapporo is gearing up for..
Debug Mode Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Oh lookie what came out today! We went to the Pokemon Center after class, and well, you can probably guess what happened. 5 out of 6! NEITHER OF US GOT PIKACHU. Something tells me they're making it the rarest of the base figures to promote buying it at the Pokemon Center to get the punching Pikachu figure. We talked to the nice lady at the Pokemon Center once again (she seems to be in charge of events), and after joking around for a bit about how we don't actually own Wii U's and her asking whether or not this seems to be a thing that there's an interest for overseas, she let me know that the rare seventh figure is actually a differently coloured Pikachu, I think she said the ears were slightly different. I used 2000 yen as my planned maximum, but of course, that would mean I have 5 spares going.. Also, I bought some rare candy, as you do..
