BigBadToyStore has posted the Bluefin versions of the recently revealed S.H. Figuarts Avengers: Infinity War figures and instead of picking a choosing they decided to just go all the way and distribute every single one of the new releases! Even Thanos!
You can check out all the pretty pictures and details for the overseas releases here.
Notice I said “new releases” in the intro. BBTS doesn’t list Star-Lord or Dr. Strange, which are essentially re-releases and are some of the last additions to the SHF Marvel line before the newest announcements. I’m not sure if it’s Bluefin or BBTS skipping those.
The biggie here is Black Panther, which is a Soul Web exclusive so a little harder to get from overseas retailers. The Bluefin release includes Tamashii Effects rocks.
Black Widow and Captain America include Tamashii Effect explosions. Still no pics of Cap’s shield but it is listed in the description.
Iron Man and Iron Spider include Tamashii Stage stands. They are like the new “Marvel” branded stands with the accessory storage box at the base but these instead have the Avengers “A” and logo.
And then finally, Thanos. Oddly, he doesn’t include anything extra that usually denotes a Bluefin release. But in our favor, it makes him one of the cheapest figures in this set to buy domestically, along with Cap. Funny how that works but I am NOT going to complain.
Now the Bluefin releases are higher than importing, but when you factor overseas shipping and the extras included in the domestic release, it all balances out. Bluefin releases also run a month behind, which isn’t too bad considering they have to receive the stock and then ship out to their retailers.
