Good man
Sorry. ;-; I'll definitely post if I see another one. I've still got my figinstock alert set up.
Question to my fellow detolf owners: I've seen some of you with the Expedit cubes underneath, and I was wondering how sturdy they were. I've got three detolfs in the middle of my room, up against some klingsbos. They don't really offer the same security as if they were up against a wall, so I'm not sure if I should try to raise up the detolfs or not.

I know. It had to be done.
I know, I shocked myself! Who knew I was capable of cutting back!?
Dammit, chrono. You finally start cutting back, and you cut back on the wrong things. XD
I cancelled some stuff as well, like yes, Metallica. Because of Phat and their questionable QC, and the game is supposedly pretty bad, sooooo.
Then all is as it should be. Good to see people stepping up when someone (chrono) lets us down.
I'd like to know this as well. I feel bad when I relegate figures to the bottom shelf. I'd like to boost the units up a bit higher, but it seems like a lot of weight.

This hobby is scary, I have a box of three figures in my car right now waiting for me to open them yet I am sitting at the amazon checkout page really thinking of ordering that GSC Katsuragi.
Good idea. Metallica will get big discounts. I guarantee it.
I have to start somewhere!
At the very least, Megahouse figures don't increase in-price dramatically, and they're not exactly under-produced. It shouldn't be too difficult to find one post-launch if I really like her.
It really is. I'm kind of regretting passing on that Alter Metatron figure despite the money I'm going to be spending this month. What's also scary is that closet space is getting a little tight now. After I get all the figures I want this year I might cut back until I get a bigger place or something.
There's something addicting about this hobby that not even video games can replicate.
There is no other way this could have happened. Just hope for the sake of your wallet, sanity, and shelf space that you slow down once you've caught up on most of your obtainable must have figs.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. I hate myself for purchasing so many figures, so I'll go dark for a few months. Then I'll take a peek, see a must own figure that I missed. It fills with me with regret seeing the reasonable original price vs what resellers have it at. Next thing I know, I'm back in, loading up my pre-orders. Only buy what I must have right?

You'll have to make due with those petit figures =P
I've been watching you go down the same route I did XD

In the "low quality figure" sense, or the "OMG THIS BOX IS HUGE EMS ONLY PLZ" kind of way?
I really want to get a Katsuragi. Isn't that tha PHAT company Kat, though? She still looks great.
I've started buying the "squishy" Senran Kagura figures, so I feel like I should just stick with that line for now.
As long as you don't run out of things to hang in there you're fine.
It's my "phat company" sense. So low quality mainly.

Yeah, but they got delayed until July. Man, such despairrrrrrrrr.
For those that haven't wish-listed Psychic yet [7th Dragon 2020]:
First of all...you should change that and quickly.
Second, here's a video from WonderFes 2014 that shows here from all angles. She looks amazing, you can even see her rip-cage. That detail. O_O
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3sonYlyOt0 [Starts at 9:34].
There are other figures in there, as well, and makes for an interesting watch. Also, you can see what Kahotan [yes, THE Kahotan], looks like. She looks a lot more normal than I originally thought, well...aside from the wig. She is truly the master of perverted reviews/previews.
As for Phat Company, I own a couple figures from them [Caster, Hibari, Katsunagi, Ikaruga, Bayonetta], and they're all fine. Of course it's not on the level of Alter, Max Factory, and other A+ Manufacturers, but they're more than decent. Also, the price for Bayonetta didn't seem to fall much, and she's sold out pretty much everywhere [despite her being EMS-only]. While the same might not be true for Swamp Witch, since Bayonetta is a more popular character, I'm not willing to take the risk. I love her sculpt/colors, and desperately need more witches for my collection.

Lol while it may be burning up my funds faster than even my lego obsession from a few years ago I am having a blast doing it. Luckily I can justify it by saying that my side work pays for it haha
Right now the biggest problem is space. I either need to get a nice bookcase to store some figures and my growing manga collection or some shelves like the ones from Ikea that Johnsmith linked.
I think I am slowing down....maybe.

I would have liked her more had Arcadia's version not been released [well, scheduled to be released anyway]. :/
I much prefer her pose/face. Phat's version isn't bad, if you can over-look the same on her leg, so I don't regret the purchase.

bayo knee and ear fucks everything up for me
I was going to get her around July if she's still available, which she probably will be, either used or new.

This is the one I am looking at
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BIZ789C/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=AY11V2RMGFPE6
Best looking one I have seen unless I haven't seen a few. I just noticed on the GSC webpage it is listed under Phat. Is that a side company of theirs?
It's one of their umbrella companies, yes.
That's the Katsuragi I own, and she's very nice.

They need to make a Asuka....I just love the style of this one. Gonna pull the trigger tomorrow I think.

Wut? Dude, I cancel specific figures from orders all the time. Like, all day every day. Just specifiy the order # and which figure(s) you want to cancel from it. I seriously cancelled like, five figures yesterday and they all had other figures in the order. They just remove the ones you wanna cancel and it creates a new order # for what's left.

Where can you pre-order her at? Search comes up nil on amiami and hobby search.

That's what I was wondering. I'm quite sure she's not up for sale yet. Anyway, go check out her MFC page. LOOK GUYS! LOOK! Pics of Psychic in the exact same location as those shitty Miku2020 pics, and Psychic looks great! Guess Miku2020 may not be doing so hot after all, huh?
#IWasRight
Sorry, that was a mistake on my part. I meant to say "wish-listed".
She's not available for pre-order yet, but hopefully soon.

PHAT Bayo's face doesn't really look like Bayonetta to me. The figure overall looks good, but Arcadia's version just knocks it out of the park.
Man, I always assumed Kahotan was a guy. I guess I just identified with perviness with a male. She's certainly a master of her craft.

If anyone is still looking for Rebecca-chan, crunchyroll has her up now. A bit pricey at $86 / $84, but if you're desperate...

Ya you are right...but I can at least lie to myself to make my wallet feel better, right??? Right guys?....
Sounds interesting, how do I imagine it? Is it like a manga or more an illustrated book with lots of text? Is it meant seriously or well.. less so?
They might have a daily deal on her.

That's our motto, you're fine
maybe XD
Haha same here. I originally wasn't as enamored with the Kagami one because I wasn't quite fond of how his face turned out, but...I also feel compelled to own the whole set LOL damnit
Yeah I agree that Archadia's version is better. But PHAT's is still pretty amazing so I gotta side with LiK's original comment.
I know there are a few other RJB fans here so here's a clear shot of the Devil's Cheerleader:
http://myfigurecollection.net/picture/941838&ref=item:144935
The colors are not as vibrant/popish as I originally thought they were in the first shot I saw during Wonfes. The light pink skin tone is really random lol why in the world did they go with that? It was tan in the original art, and not only did it look better but it coordinated better with the yellow gear too. Also needs a tad mo mascaraaaa
I still like it enough overall but they really should've stuck with the original color palette.

Yeah, I think Kuroko looks pretty awesome. Kinda sad I didn't preorder him when I had the chance.
Kagami is ok but the higher price kinda puts me off. I probably would end up getting him maybe.
I actually don't think I care enough for the rest of the characters they'll plan to release though. Don't really care that much about the rest of the Generations of Miracle, lol.
