C boxes are fine. Go for it. I love B/Cs. Huge savings.

Nah. I would, but that chain looks a bit fragile, and my chocolate princesses already cost me enough in impulse-buys this month. Besides, I have no clue where she's from.

The face turned out pretty good. I'll probably buy this once I see it cheap on Amazon.

Something about Chun-Li's eyes and lips make the figure look derpy to me.

somebody bought Reina/Leina from QB. I Was eyeing it.... KINDA maybe (probably not)

It's the pink eyeshadow that does it. She'd look fine if not for that. Has she ever had her makeup like that in any of the official artwork?

There are a lot of QB figures... speaking of which, is it just me, or did someone shit just about the entire Shining Tears / Wind / Blade / Bananas figure collection into AmiAmi pre-owned lately?

not the daiki one. That one is more on the level of GSC quality. Its also 1/6.

She has it in the artwork I've seen and I don't believe they ever released any artwork for her new face.

They used the same color on Psylocke. I don't love it, but it's not that bad.

I didn't mean Shunya's sketch... I mean official Capcom art.

I'm not saying it's a bad look, just that this particular figure would look better without it. Of that I have no doubt.

 

[george_us]

I didn't mean Shunya's sketch... I mean official Capcom art.

Her Street Fighter IV and MvC3 art shows her with eye shadow but it's very subtle.

I had to grab that Nimbus figure, that black dress was ballin' as fuck. I'll have to cancel a couple of video game preorders I had but I need to cut back anyways. Too many unfinished games and Dark Souls 2 is going to last me for a loooong time.

So average out 46% of the cost is shipping, I couldn't use SAL shipping since the Nanoha force figure is too big.

I should had got my nendoroid from amazon instead, since there were no report of counterfeit. Plus Fate was in another store, so I couldn't bundle her in . It is okay, sometime sacrifice had to be made. RIP in peace Fate.

Oh whatever, I am super excited for them!

Which figure did you buy? MFC link plz.

And omg, yes. I can't wait for Dark Souls 2. I found the strategy guide in Barnes & Noble today, so I picked it right up. But it's actually making the wait even worse. ;_;

Still don't know what class I'm going to play.

Ah, she's a beauty. I can't decide whether I like that coloration or the original better. But she's definitey a figure I'd like to pick up at some point.

I posted pictures of the face like a month ago. IMO, it's still just as bad as the prototype. From certain angles, her nose still looks 10 miles long and her eyes lazy. Going cheap is a good plan.

I did it. I finally got to pay for my Riobot. I am so fucking hyped.

I think she went up a few days ago. I pre-ordered instantly.

Figured. I was surprised it was as cheap as it is. I mean 6k is a lot no doubt but I guess I expected more. I'm not as well versed with these so maybe the price is in line with previous/similar releases.

Cool either way. She's a far cry from the bumbling but lovable girl that she's in the carton series

 

[Freezasaurus]

Figured. I was surprised it was as cheap as it is. I mean 6k is a lot no doubt but I guess I expected more. I'm not as well versed with these so maybe the price is in line with previous/similar releases.

I paid 15k for an aftermarket figure last week. 6k isn't much these days. Standard figure prices are creeping up to 8 or 9k a pop.

So I guess you're also pleasantly surprised with the price? Looks high quality and whatnot.

I agree with the sentiment that 6k isn't much with figures with my brief but costly time with figures so far nodding in agreement. But I just didn't want to come across as ungrateful. It's still a decent amount of moolah.

Got Green Canti for 5k with delivery. It was from Amiami pre-owned. Toy A and box B. Should be okay right? Really hard to get a hold of the fig as far as I'm aware.

I want this so bad, and the whole collection.

I heard from people from MFC that a lot of Griffon Enterprises figure never live up to the prototype. Hopefully she won't be sold out any time soon, I want to see the quality of the next 2 or 3 figures before I invest in them.

 

[Ken]

solution is to steal the prototype with money

 

[Freezasaurus]

So I guess you're also pleasantly surprised with the price? Looks high quality and whatnot.

I'm not really surprised. The bishoujos from Kotobukiya are always in that price range. It's part of what makes them an easy gateway drug into figure collecting. They also never get bootlegged.

Yeah, a good rule of thumb is to never buy Griffon figures. Ever.

That is depressing, Rozen Maiden figures are way overdue, at least the nendoroids are coming.

 

[Bombless]

What do you mean by this?

I much prefer the original Wonder Woman bisho but 1 : it's too expensive now and 2 : the older bishoujos are really small. I got Christie because I really like her (and because it was relatively cheap) but the size difference between the old and new bishoujos is starting to make my collection look odd, so I'll stop here.

With Ami, anything A/B is basically brand new. The only way a box gets an A rating is if it's never been opened. The same goes with B-graded figures; outside of maybe some dust you'd never know they've been displayed.
