[Razgriz-Specter]

So that figure I mentioned that wound up in Spain somehow,
Just got the replacement from Jungle Entertainment...
I had ordered used, but I got a factory sealed one for no additional charge.
Nice.

My March order showed up today. OMG Olivia is gorgeous. And her box is gigantic.

edit: Olivia is beautiful. And also a pain in the ass to put together. When you guys get her, remember that her head AND her upper body come off. The instructions don't show anything about the upper torso being removable, but it's the only way to get her belt on. She also seems just a smidge wobbly on her only support, despite her foot being screwed into the base. Makes me neeeeeeeeervous.

I'm looking forward to cracking open Melda and Risty later, who I'm sure won't be nearly as difficult to assemble.

so i am missing kanbaru and nadeko for my monogatari collection

Waiting for a Nadeko

Spoiler

snake god

monogatari spoiler or her nisemono dress version

ANd kanbaru is just too expensive =(. She will get a new figure I think with the new season since it is her arc.

Yes to spoiler Nadeko. Definitely best Nadeko. And I've wanted a good Kanbaru figure. The GSC one is too pricey, and the Koto one just doesn't tickle my fancy.

 

[Ryuuroden]

My Alter Merry Nightmare figure arrived today. She is very cute and on a side note, the customs declaration said "used toy" ;0 which is something we have discussed here before. lol.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Man, Olivia doesn't look like a 1/8 figure at all. She's huge, and it's not just the wings.... She really seems like she's at least a 1/7, unless she's a giantess or something in Rage of Bahamut.

 

[Snkfanatic]

I want to see pics of Olivia...someone needs to take some.

HLJ trying to offer me store credit. I sent them an email back saying I'd like the charges reversed. Might be time to dispute some charges!

Really? They're trying to offer you store credit instead of the cash you paid for an out of stock figure?

[Professor Renegade]

I'm proud to say that I am now the owner of Revoltech Yamaguchi Number 70: Arc Gurren Lagann!

With this addition my collection has all four of Gurren Lagann's forms in the Revoltech line. Can't wait to add more.

Your move, javac.

 

[johnsmith]

Caster [Fate/EXTRA CCC] - 4,000 yen
But then its another 500 handling fee, and 410 for registered sal. If it was 4,000 at hobby search or amiami i'd buy it right away, but I hate paying those extra fees. It was already under 5,000 at amiami once already, I think I'll hold off. I'm trying to cut back on nonessential figures anyway.

[Kincaido]

I think it's 1/8.

Edit: Compared with the boxes

That looks great. Really hope there are places selling it when my wallet recovers.

Putting Olivia together was work. Japanese instrictions just don't help very much.

Oh, I'm already in... Only buying Nendos at the moment; I haven't gotten into scaled figures yet (and I hope I don't for the sake of my wallet, haha)

My MH4 Nendoroid, Lagombi Edition came in today XD

You have no idea. The extended version of that Training Day clip is even more appropriate here.

Oh, I'm already in... Only buying Nendos at the moment; I haven't gotten into scaled figures yet (and I hope I don't for the sake of my wallet, haha)

Once you get into scaled figures you might as well plan a nice Viking funeral for your wallet.

 

[kewlmyc]

Thanks brahs. I sent them a request.

GOOD NEWS! Now you don't have to go through a proxy if these are the figures you're talking about.

Be careful since it's a Provisional Preorder so they can cancel anytime.

I'm just a little salty that Haikyu is already getting figures.

omg wow thanks for the head's up! I just bought a copy

 

[Professor Renegade]

(Also, hi FigureGAF! First time posting here ^^)

Yup, they made one for some of the main robots in the Revoltech line. In fact I think that's the only figure of Arc Gurren Lagann.

Also welcome to the thread, do you collect figures or is this your first step into a world of plastic, PVC, and pre-orders?

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Anyone have any experience using a proxy service? I want to get those Haikyuu figures that go up next week.

The ones on amiami tonight are good.

 

[apricot]

Thanks! I wouldn't say I collect, but I got into Nendoroids when Isabelle (Animal Crossing) was released last year... I've bought a few random things, including the S.H Figuarts Sailor Moon, so I've definitely got my eye on figures now. But I'm trying not to go down the never-ending hole that is scaled figures I love looking at all the photos, though!

If I WERE to ever get a scaled figure, Aoba from DMMd would be at the top of my list: http://myfigurecollection.net/item/116883

My first preorder was the MH4 Lagombi Nendo, and I also have Snow Miku 2014 on order :3

 

[FeenieVonKarma]

Nendo pajamas are here! Secret is White Dress shirt pantless. . .

OMG I CAN'T HANDLE ALL OF THAT CUTE, they look amazing!

Long time lurker, first time poster here (maybe not first time, I might have commented on a cool figure in the past too, haha.)

I don't have anywhere good to display proper figures, but I think I'll get some Persona nendoroids when I have the cash for it... (It seems like nendoroids are a gateway drug though XD )

 

[Snkfanatic]

Welcome, don't think you will escape the death of your wallet by just buying Nendos lol

 

[Gyrian]

Tsukasa Bullet Sound Pretty on Mandarake, the first one I've seen since setting up the alert. Wish I'd found this one like this long ago!

 

[Snkfanatic]

Thoughts on this Sonico? Or at least the Maker (Griffon Enterprises)? Not a bad price, I like her although she has a rather blank stare.

Griffon is pretty damn meh from what I hear. Your mileage may vary.

Been thinking of tracking down Isabelle, but Nendos aren't really my thing. That scaled figure looks pretty amazing though.

Welcome, best words of advice I can give after seeing people join Figure GAF, avoid Amiami's preowned section, as most members' wallets would attest XD.

 

[Dabookerman]

So RAH Link is the last ever RAH figure I ever purchase. Medicom are completely unreliable as far living up to the prototype are concerned. Mine hasn't arrived yet, but this is what to expect...

This is why Hot Toys has becomes so much more popular.

[Lord Ghirahim]

I see several reviews complaining about that bright green felt... I guess that's final. Welp :/

 

[DeadRockstar]

Wow, Link's cap and tunic do not look good in the production version. It's a shame because everything else looks good to me.

FWIW somebody on MFC got an e-mail response from Medicom which seems to be indicating that it was Nintendo's decision. The English isn't perfect though, so I'm assuming the intent was to say that licensor instructions are the reason for this specific change, and not that it's just generally applicable to variances from the prototypes of all their products.

 

[LiK]

Hope they don't fuck up Mikasa RAH too.
