Unpainted best girl shows up.

I have too many I collected a few years back. I stopped getting figures in general, but here you go. From the manga ''Berserk'', I got this rare polystone statue for a cheaper price than the original. I might post the rest sometime later on.
Happy birthday!
I'm kinda pissed off. I had 3 items that I had to pay import duty for but I only paid for two of them because I didn't want the third item. So of course today I get two packages, one being the item I didn't want. How do I even rectify this...
I know a duder here has it on his bookshelf. He can probably give impressions of it if he reads this.
ah here he is

I just found out that there's a new Gojulas model kit! I...I need this.
That looks badass. It looks like it's from Zoids or something.
I was thinking Zoids too. The first anime series was so good.
Has there been any news on M.S.L. Nanoha Movie 2nd A's - Signum -Der Stolz sogar eines Ritters- (Alter)? She is scheduled for the 31'st but I haven't seen or heard anything yet. Since its Alter, I would not be surprised if it was delayed but i would of expected to hear about it by now. Oh and I checked and realized I won't be getting my Olivia till like June cause the site i got her from is American although because of that I got her for 111 dollars.

Alter's website has Signum's release as "From April".
I'm glad I already paid for her either way. Her final cost with shipping which could still increase was just short of 200 dollars which makes her my most expensive figure to date. I got my kato marika from same site and ended up having to pay an additional 7 dollars when she was released so I can see signum doing the same thing.

Air small packet = 2-4 weeks, possibly 1-4 weeks in America.

I was thinking of doing this, too. But I've only got Olivia, Risty and Melda shipping together, so I think they should be able to all fit in one box so long as Dark Waifu Olivia's packaging isn't too big.

I'm just trying to resist the urge to look at Mandarake or AmiAmi's preowned section.

AmiAmi pre-owned is safe, at least. They don't seem to have updated it in a few days.

They are preparing a mega update to get that end of month splurge.

Hooooly crap man lol. We will need to see a pic of this haul together when it comes in.
I want to see pics of the box they shipped it in.

Well, that's going to be interesting. Perhaps I should delete my PayPal account and lock my wallet in a safe or something.

Did you order another product with Tharja and thus it'll ship out together/end of the month? If not you probably could contact Amiami about it: https://secure.amiami.com/top/quest/asp/
Please take a photo of the box XD I wanna see Amiami's biggest figure parcel box.
Haha, no problem. I'm having this one shipped to work so I don't have to pick it up the day after. Hopefully it doesn't say "used toy" on it since it's' being shipped with new figures.
I wonder if they'll just separate the order.

I would've been close, if Miku2020 didn't get delayed, shipping alone would've pushed me over the edge. Just paid 5400 yen to ship Olivia alone...
Now, three figures left; Miku, Snow Miku, and Satan... Can I stay strong?

I wouldn't worry about it. Mine does...but it is only on the packing slip. Then again I am a artist so they expect me to get weird stuff here (work) all the time so it doesn't really bother me.

If I had that big of an order I would probably have to take a U-haul to the post office to pick it up.

Let me introduce you to One Piece brah.
kewlmyc makin' it rain up in this bitch. Goddamn.
N-no thank you.
Hahaha, I got my yearly bonus check from my job and my tax return all in the same month. I'm not normally this wealthy.
This is the biggest I'll ever get. After this, the only used figures I'll want is Alter's Durarara collection (3 figures) and Odin Sphere's Velvet.

My Tharja arrived!
People complaining about bad paintwork are crazy. What looked from the side like it might've been uneven paint lines on the top of her shoulder are actually a curved gold pattern.
She's stunning! I didn't realize before purchase either that you could display her without the cape (the cape adds such elegance though!). The velvet surface of the base, which she stands on freely I might add without a single peg on her or the table, adds a nice touch.
Unfortunately pictures will have to wait this time. I've got to get to work and I have an event tonight until late. I will try to post some by tomorrow morning though in case anybody's interested in seeing good shots of the final product.

Some complaints on the ring on her finger not actually making it to the proper area where a ring would be. I noticed it in the pics I saw on MFG as well.
There was a picture of Tharja with the ring on her right hand (i think?) not being where it's supposed to be, at the knuckle rathercthan the finger.
I saw that the ring on her right hand is located on her knuckle instead of her actual finger.

Both of the rings are not quite as far up onto the fingers as you would expect for it to be completely accurate, but I think they're all likely to be that way as the retail product differs from the prototype in that spot. In the prototype, the ring is actually sculpted to look like its wrapping around her finger (at least on her right hand, I didn't see any good shots of her left hand). However, in the retail product, the ring is chopped straight across, most likely because the cloth & ring is actually a separate piece from her hand. The one on her left hand is more "off" than the one on her right hand.
It's a concession to mass production. I wouldn't classify this in the realm of significant deviation from the prototype, and it doesn't distract me from her other exquisite qualities.
