OMFG guys, I'm not paying that much for a color scheme YOU like. I prefer the new paint job.

If we were talking about Leviathan, THEN you might be able to call bullshit.

I did say I can't say anything if you do like it better, only that there's no way to you can be serious that it's less "too much of the same color" than the original. There's even fewer colors on it w/ the same color layered over the same color. Since you like it, I'm happy you can get a better version for yourself for cheaper.

Am I the only one who likes the new Leviathan colors better than the original?

Oh, and what do you think are the odds Orchid Seed does a non-exclusive re-release of all the sins? They have to know they're sitting on a cash cow...

Now, to fight the urge to complete the set; they're all starting to grow on me...

I think you are the only one.

I'd say the odds are pretty good. Orchid Seed likes money. Hobby Japan likes money. I just hope you're ready to wait forever for them.

Guys I have bad news.
nendoroids are way more adorable than I thought theyd be and Im sort of addicted.

Yeeeesssssss someone to share my addiction with. lol

Nendos are dangerous. If they were cheaper, I would buy them all.

Preparation in progress. Preparation in progress. Preparation in progress!

Come to me my Nendos!

We need a Nendo/smaller figures version of this image XD:

Sad part is...mine would have to have both. I have finally found a hobby that is as costly as photography. Not really sure that is a good thing.

Paid for Melda on Wednesday, but AmiAmi hasn't shipped her yet. I only got SAL, but what's up with these lags between payment and shipping these days over at AmiAmi? It used to be like 1 day, now it's like 2-3 days.

It's the same with Hobby Search. Something must be up with JP Post.

What are you expecting?

The two new Monster Hunter Nendoroids (and their felyne buddies!)

Also, about the quote : Lol. We told you so. You're in it forever now.

I definitely like the silver detailing over black better than the original palette they used.

So browsing on Amiami and saw this, under the name of: "1/6 Female Seamless Body ver.04 Large Bust Brown Skin"

That's fecking Halle Berry don't pretend it's not whoever you are, "Phicen Limited", betting they didn't even get the rights to use her image as well. XD

 

[Bombless]

"Large Breast size for 1/6" they sure know their selling points. Also yes, totally Halle Berry. They didn't even bother to change the bikini colour/knife.

Isn't that also the swimsuit from the James Bond movie she was in?

Edit: OMG, it is. Google search "Halle Berry James Bond" and look at the pics... EXACT.

 

[cajunator]

This was as predictable as a Stephanie Meyer plot twist to everyone in this this thread but yourself apparently lol.

Well as I had explained earlier in pictures they looked a bit weird with the huge heads and almost comically out of proportion. but once I got Yuno, I saw the real proportions of these figures and they are perfectly sized chibi figures. So yes now I want a million of them.
I never saw one out of a box before now.

Ill set that up really quickly since I have to go back to work in an hour.

Nope! But it's so nice and velvety!

I also mentioned previously that she doesn't even need the stack of books to lean on. She's self-balancing. It looks kind of weird though...

I hate that velvet base. It got filthy immediately.

the artbook and the magazines are heavy.

the 7 nendos (even if its petite) take up a bit of space.

Tharja isn't that big but with all that I would assume it would be atleast 70.

Ya very true, either way I can't wait. So much awesome in one box!

It should be one box. I got Risty, Melda and Dark Waifu Olivia and I paid 8k in shipping. Olivia's box must be huge!

Pretty sure that's all one box. Last month I had a bunch of shit and it came in the biggest box I'd ever received from Amiami. It had 2 figures (Kaiba and Yugi, Kaiba has a really huge box), something like eight plushes, 3 boxes of blind-box style figures (10 figures ea box), a Kirby stamp set, and some badges. $100 shipping.

This month was $90 and it only had three figures and a PS3 game in it. It's kind of getting ridiculous how much I'm spending on shipping, so from now on I might not bother with combining everything and just SAL things as they come. I don't think I have any massive figures in my future that would force me to do EMS (hopefully not Metallica), so this may be more cost effective in the long run. I don't know.

Since everyone's been talking about nendos, I decided to take a crappy picture of my nendo family.

I literally couldn't get far enough back to take a full picture. Our collection room is craaaamped. Also this isn't all of them.

The rest are over here:

Tee hee. Poor Charlotte.

I hate that velvet base. It got filthy immediately.

Yeah keeping that thing clean is going to be a pain in the ass but I still love it. It's so classy!

Once Max Factory Brown Skin Elf arrives the month of hell shall finally come to an end. All I have pre-ordered for April is a copy of the Xenogears Perfect Works reprint and the Annihilation Omnibus in May. I know Cammy, Wonder Woman, and Spider-Woman are releasing around those times but I can afford to wait on those until they get to $50 or lower.

 

[johnsmith]

Wow, the rockin' jelly bean artbook is in english. Wasn't expecting that.

Dusty or dirty I get, but why Filthy?! What were you...!!!!

Ok, Monokuma. I touched it and got a ton of dust and crap on it. Wiped it with a microfiber cloth and made it a million times worse. Finally wiped it off with a black tshirt and got it looking decent again.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Awesome. Can't wait to get mine. SO EXCITE!

Btw, have you found an entry for the book on mfc? I wanna add it but can't seem to find it.

Nope, but I haven't really looked. You might have to add it yourself.

Guessing it's mega old news but I just saw it up for pre-order. £22 doesn't seem too bad?

It's just a bad design for figma-ization due to the way they handle torso joints especially since the bottom of her boobs are exposed. It makes the joint underneath look really weird, and her boobs are actually too big for the character. They would've been smarter to go with her normal version of Senketsu.

That being said, I pre-ordered it the moment it went up. I'm looking forward to having some epic fights w/ the Satsuki figma as well.

Yeah now that you pointed it out...they always become victim to the dreaded floaty boob syndrome. Still looks alright for the price. Haven't actually seen the show yet. I hate watching shows one episode at a time, I want it to end so I can marathon the whole thing in one sitting. One episode a week, how do you manage!

If you have something similar to the Container Store, then go there. A ton of different sizes and choices!

Never heard of it, but their site ships to Canada so that's pretty good.

I really want the 1/6 Kotobukiya version. Hopefully it'll show up on AmiAmi pre-owned one day.

 

[javac]

Yeah that's why I didn't bite. 3k isn't bad but I'd rather wait for a better one. I got this one so far for 3K Not the best but better I'd say. I think I like the Alter Bounty Hunter Version the best.

That one looks cute. I've definitely been checking AmiAmi pre-owned for something. I should check Mandarake, too, but the search function is annoying.

Just got to experience every Figure-Gaffers worst nightmare... Just had a 5+ earthquake here in Southern California. Got stand in a doorway and watch as my figure shelf swayed dangerously in the shaking.

Luckily, no damage and only single figure fell over.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to finish this Imperial stout and my crack another...

Can't do anchors due to where the shelf is.

And right now, a Strand Brewing Company (local brewery here in South Bay of SoCal) Unfiltered Stout. Will most likely be moving to a bottle of Stone Russian Imperial if the aftershock-fest keeps up.

Living in a 4th floor apartment during an earthquake kind of sucks...
