The figures of Sakura, Naruto, and Sasuke with the standees looks nice. Really hope a new Jiraiya figurine gets made, or a re-release of the SH Figuarts version.

Seeing as how they've been going through and remaking all of their Naruto figures I think there's a good chance of a new Jiraiya happening.

Ryu is a must pick-up at any price if I come across it later this year, and I'd be tempted by Chisato (from Lycoris Recoil) if it proves to be a cheaper (i.e., under $100) one.

If you mean the scale figure of Chisato on the line-up, it's ¥15,800(~$120) on pre-order from Good Smile themselves on their English online storefront. Though most japanese retailers online(hobby search, amiami etc), list it discounted for about ~¥13,500( ~$105). Prices on Western retailers vary, for example J-list has it discounted for $112.50 but Tokyo Otaku Mode for $123.79 discounted.

Anyone care to explain what was going on with the Re:Zero figures? Does Subaru make good on the harem (and with Ram??)...?

They've run through most of the other possible iterations for Rem and Ram?

That's an "if there's nothing else at the 'con that interests me, I might take it" level of pricing for me.

I think it's them holding kid versions of themselves (for some reason), rather than their own child iirc

Interesting to see all the RWBY figures. Is that just a special interest of Richard's or has the series gained traction in Japan after the anime last season?

There's a new Rooster Teeth RWBY season (season 9). I'm finding it a bit of an improvement over previous seasons, though they'll still just drop significant plot threads with no development. Jaune, of all people, shows major character development.
