What should I get next?

I just got in my Tax Rebate check so I can buy myself another Shinki Figure, maybe 2.

Should I get?:
A) Devil Straf (Which I could really use for my Custom Shinki)
B) Altene (I hear it's gonna sell out fast)
C) Espadia (So many armor configurations they're well worth their price)
D) Lacramento (See note above on Espadia, they freaken combine!)

Do you have to choose one? If that's the case, I vote Strarf. I firmly believe that every Shinki fan should have at least one version of both Strarf and Arnval. If you do go for Strarf, I highly recommend the "bis" version; it comes with everything the original release did and more.

If you don't have to choose, then three out of four of those are guaranteed to be fantastic. The fourth... Well, the fourth isn't released yet, but I've got $10 that says she's great, too!

Well, I need a Straf for my Custom Figure I'm making, so most of the parts aren't super important aside from the main body, robot arms and legs (Bis is the only one that has the extra front hair part with the mask though right?) Bis is still the easiest to find, the older one is usually rarer and the price jacked up because it's the original)

I'm actually probably able to get 2 out of 4.

I was thinking about going for the Beetle girls since I found them for a good deal (Straf just sold out at the store I found it for cheap), as older figures they're getting harder to find. Altene is still in production since it hasn't even been released yet, but I heard it's going to sell out quickly so I dunno if I should get it while I still can or wait and see.

Graffias has a mask like that, too.

Go for straf. Only the bis has the mask however.
(it also depends onhow much of a good price the beatles go for, personally i dislike them.)

How can you not like the Beatles?! They were a great band!

...Oh... you mean the beetle girls, Lancamento and Espadia... That's different... Never mind...

Yeah, but the Straf parts work best for my Custom, I was only saying the extra head part with the mask is the only Bis part I need that the original release didn't include meaning that I'd take the Bis over the original even though I don't need a lot of the added parts.

What I want to know is how you can possibly not need that massive rocket-powered hammer. C'mon! It's perfect for all your castle-crashing, skull-bashing, and meat-tenderizing needs!

Too Heavy for Flight.
Those wings and boosters I plan on adding probably wouldn't even be able to lift the Armor I'm keeping.


The Custom is more suited to Blade Combat.
