Glad to see you got it early!
man, was thinking of using MFC to help sell instead of trying to take photos of everything. i shall try your method soon here.
LOL, I just got a Princess Bitch figure, too. Oh well.
This has got to be the lewdest figure I've ever purchased (that stand is what really does it...well, that and the removable top), but a Nintendo parody? Couldn't pass that up! Took some pictures. Couldn't resist putting it with some Nintendo stuff.

That Mamiya Marie figure out-lusts Lust herself (Asmodeus)! Those curves are exaggerated to incredible levels, yet she still looks in proportion to herself. Crazy! I don't think I could display her though. Her appearance is just too much.
In other news, I got my P4 Elizabeth today from Ques Q.
Mine should be here either Monday or Tuesday.
She looks great. My salt for not getting Alter's Elizabeth is going down.

That reminds me I am debating on the Prison School Vice Prez Catsuit version. January is full atm so no preorder, I am secretly hoping she'll end up bargained, like the previous version.
Also, too bad I'm on vacation, I'd had jumped on one or two figs there Selvaria
Yeah, I have the Catsuit figure on pre-order too! The Vice Prez is too awesome to resist!
No worries about the figures. I'm sure some of them might still be available by the time you get back from your vacation!

I just feel incredibly relieved that I didn't spend $400 for the Alter one while I was in Japan last year.
Hah. Yeah, she certainly is appealing. I still have some shame left. I mean, her nipples are pretty much half exposed at all times due to the non-perfect clothing fit. XD But I'll be damned if that isn't a figure to die for.

Looks better, still not sure that I like it. Need to see more pics. As it is, I don't know if I'm going to jump on the SF bishoujo series until Juri comes out, if her sculpt is decent.

I'm struggling to see the difference.

Same. I'm not convinced it is the "new" face - or the new face is the same as the old face.

Well..... I decided to check AmiAmi's pre-owned section to see if they updated before their vacation. B/B Alter Selvaria. 11,800 JPY.
DONE.
DONE.
There'll probably be a few announcements, or new sculpts or pain jobs. Most of the figure companies show up there.

Not generally, no. It's happened here and there, but don't expect WonFes or MegaHobby numbers of announcements.

I finally got a Selvaria and no one cares. *sniff, sniff*

Congrats, man.
Yeah, she was a bit pricey, but I've wanted her for a while and she doesn't seem to pop up all that often. Besides, what is Xmas money for but shit you don't really need?

Finally got confirmation from Hobby Search a couple hours ago.
Wording in the message is hilarious though
"Figma Okabe Rintaro(PVC) non Figma"

I see you went with the "clear white liquid" option too and not the red wine, lol. Shameless indeed.

Lol!
As a fan of the character myself, that Alter Selvaria is one of my favorites in my collection. The swimsuit version is also great. Anyway, congrats on your purchase!
Freezasaurus

That does seem a bit pricey. I usually don't get slapped with shipping that high unless I get 2-3 figures at once, depending on box sizes.

art books can get heavy.
Congrats on your purchase! She's a beautiful figure.
Art book, you say? That explains it.
Unless it's a small/simple art book, anytime I've had one shipped you can expect close to 3500 yen alone for it [via EMS]. Weight adds a lot to the price of shipping, and while they might not be large in-size, they're definitely heavy.

I spent several minutes thinking to myself...Mara really became an iconic demon for SMT XD
The Final Fantasy artbook weighed so much O_O
Oh wow, that looks great.

Well. That's because it was actually three books.

Still weighed more then 3 average artbook together because of its hardcover/material, you don't know how much pity I felt for the courier for those book when I had it delivered X'D

Is the Alleyne figure by Orchid Seed supposed to be good or bad? Any idea what the finished product looks like?

Orchid Seed is usually pretty good. I think a bunch of people around here ordered her.

Just on my way out the door and the courier dude rocked up with this;
Apologise for the bad photo, was in a rush.

It exists!
I'm one of them [surprise, surprise].
Orchid Seed does some great figures. They're also masters of cast-off, IMO.
I wouldn't be worried about their Alleyne, I'm sure she'll turn out amazing.
Ugh, mine still hasn't arrived. Jealous!Just on my way out the door and the courier dude rocked up with this;

Now open her up and post pictures! >

Yeah, but you can say that about most any figure people bring up.
Also, I just got a payment request from AmiAmi for my Selvaria... I thought they were closed until next week.

Yeah, I got a shipment email from AmiAmi yesterday. I know they're supposedly closed, but it seems as though a few might have remained to fulfill whatever orders they can, even with the holidays. Granted yours probably won't be shipped out until the new year, but at least it will be paid and [hopefully] ready to go out!

For those that want Ryuuko, she's Crunchyroll's deal of the day. You can get her for $69, $65 if you're a subscriber: http://www.crunchyroll.com/store/p/84354/Ryuko-Matoi-Kamui-Senketsu-Ver-18-Scale
There's about 3 hours left on the sale.
Caveats: You'll get her 1 month late, and CA residents may have to pay sales tax.
