Just got an e-mail from BBTS that my preordered Kakashi is in. I won't be able to ship him until the end of the month, so I'm curious if anyone has these yet.
I would like to know what comes with the mass market versions since I've seen little detail outside the SDCC Naruto, which lack Jutsu effects, but had that rode and scroll. I've been trying to talk myself into ordering the three pack and sell off the extra Kakashi (and probably Itachi), but I need to know they have more than 3 hand sets first to warrent getting more than Kakashi. So, yeah, anyone got these yet or am I not alone in the dark?

Yeah, I'd love to have the Sage Mode, but the 2nd market prices are way to high just for a robe and (totally awesome) scroll.
Decided to go ahead and ship the Kakashi since I'll be keeping him eitherway. I have a hunch this line ain't gonna last long with such little information. Packaging should be something like this. Of course, their assortments were different then too with Sakura in the first wave so this info is dated.

I'm still waiting for this episode.
The show needs more Gara. In fact Gaara should have his own show. It should be called "Gaara Kills All The Ninjas Show". The sequel would be about Gaara and Vegita teaming up to fight the entire universe. |

Japan made that Hybrid line for DBZ a few years back in the 4" scale. Toy comic the hell outta that. I know Kakashi is gonna be added to my comics somehow.
Also, there's already a crossover video game (along with One Piece...BLEH!).

Yay! Found a pic of them in box on eBay!
So, what I can spot: Itachi: 1 extra set of hands. Wonder if they even bothered giving him full legs... Kakashi: By far the best with 2 extra hand sets and a head with the bandana covering his eye! Sweet! Naruto: 2 extra hand sets. Basically Sage Mode without the robe or scroll. I gonna say that if everything can be seen here (as in noting hidden under the label), then that's somewhat lacking in the accessories. Would a rasengan hand, a Raikiri/Lighting Blade hand, and a fireball breath for Itachi have been that hard? I'll give my final verdict when my Kakashi gets here later this week, but even if their lacking accessories these still may be the best Naruto action figures made (with the only challengers being those Bandai ones from years ago that now cost an arm and a leg).

Kakashi came in the mail today. He's great and worth getting.
He comes with: Opened plams Kunai holding hands (Kunais not removable) Seal hands Left hand holding Icha-Icha Tactics (SWEET!) 2 heads (one with bandana down and with bandana up) And finally a clear round stand (Wich Hasbro would use simple stands like this). Still a shame that he didn't get a Lightning Cutter hand. Still, it's more stuff than I expected. Articulation is great. He uses a kind of fake Revolver Joint in the shoulders, neck, and ankles. I would believe it if Toynami said they tried to get the use of offical Revolver Joints, but couldn't. In fact, with very little doing these joints can be replaced with real Revolver Joints. Anyways, here's what he's got: The already mentioned NOT Revolver Joints in the ankles, shoulders, and neck. Swivel jointed knees, thighs, elbows, and two on each hand (one at connection and one that bends inward). Ball/Socket jointed hips, waist (inside the crotch), and in his inter shoulders (allowing the shoulders to shift forward, back, up, and down). Some kind of joint in the torso that has the same effect as mid torso joints on Joes (think it's a Ball/Socket joint). The detail of this figure is pretty good as well. The most impressive pieces are the Sharingan eye and Icha-Icha Tactics. My pictures can not do the Sharingan eye justice, but it has the ring and dots (doesn't have tails due to size) painted on. Icha-Icha Tactics has all the Japan Kanji on it and the right artwork is there too. Nice!

Now for the lie. Kakashi is not 4", he's almost 5.5" tall. 4" scale is a lie. These are generally 5" scale which works more with Revoltechs, Ninja Turtles, and even the Mattel Naruto figures. That's not a big problem to me, but still disappointing as I planned to have him kick Snake Eyes' ass and fight my accidental Storm Shadow army. So yeah, he's going on my Revoltech shelf instead of my 4" scale shelf. Final Thoughts: Completely worth it. Of course, what competition does it have? Mattel? BWAHAHAHA! Yeah right! Those broke in half before they were outta the box. Those fairly rare and pricey Bandai figures from years ago? Those are pricey and rare! It's simply a good Naruto figure. That's hard to come by. Plus, it's less than $15.

My GF got her set in today. She ran around the house for an hour proclaiming their greatness. Have to say they are pretty awesome. The only problem she has is with Itachi's leg's. His cloak hinders his leg articulation.
