Just got my first detolf and unpacked Dark Angel Olivia and Jubei Hakugin no Kenki. Don't know what to do with the lowest section. Looks like a waste of space.

Custom figma Strenght. Holy shit, amazing work.

Most people put them on another low furniture piece, an Ikea Expedit was mentioned here on the previous pages.

And if the Freddie's face isn't doing much for people, there's always the hometown!

Edit : Bisho Batgirl is ranking 2nd on Amiami. Hopefully that'll persuade Kotobukiya to reedit the rest of the Batman line.
 
I barely found out that Vocaloid producer Mitchie M released a Miku album late last year.

What's awesome is the album cover drawn by Evangelion character designer Yoshiyuki Sadamoto:

Does anyone know if Good Smile Company is gonna be making a static PVC figure based on this design?

My wallet's gonna be crying the second once pre-orders are open, yo.

Wow, I also have Olivia on the top shelf of a detolf. And I also have those three Hyakka Ryouran figures sharing a detolf shelf as well. XD

Though Jubei and Gisen are in front, and Naoe is in the back on a riser.

And if the Freddie's face isn't doing much for people, there's always the hometown!

The only thing I'm actually taking away from that image is "Hey, is that a real stocking? Is that what they're going to do for Black Canary?"
 
You're not picking out a new figure just to buy a figure, are you? That's a slippery slope.

naw there are things I have been eyeing but thinking about it. Also bored I guess. I don't usually PO stuff until last minute unless I really want it and don't want to risk a price hike in the aftermarket.

I never liked that Sheryl figure. Too much going on and colours blending all over the place. Also, I've seen enough hentai to know where that situation is going. ANd Cerberus..well...lol.

The big issues with Sheryl are the cables and the hair. Not that it isn't well-sculpted or functional, but it's all just going all over the place. Over, under, around.... It's too distracting.

Same thing with that Witch Metallia. Too much going on. Though Metallia it's the overload on colours and details.

The figure looks great. No question. But I have to comment on Goodsmile and their non-objective, self-fellating reviews. Come on, guys. Are Japanese sites even capable of looking at the good and bad points of a figure? The official blogs are just one big circle-jerk. If you want honest reviews, you need to go with US-based sites.

Dude. It's not a real review. It's essentially a gallery with commentary. Everyone treats them that way, and they're a lot of fun. In fact, the word "review" isn't even anywhere on the page.

AmiAmi's amazing "reviews" are really previews anyway, considering that they seem to be looking at the prototypes.

My gf is coming over tomorrow night. She doesn't know I got the Sorceress. That money could have been used to buy a Nook...OOOPS! All I need is the Amazon and a good Yoko and I'm good for a while.

Daddy needs a few things, even if they're made of plastic. I'm sure the lady will understand
Most likely not, lol

I've never seen such a collection of big breasts

It's funny, because when it comes to real women, I prefer ass over titties. Big breasts ARE a helluva a lot of fun, but a woman without child bearing hips, kissable, squeezable, touchable thick thighs and round, juicy ass is seriously depressing. I need something to hold on, at any given moment. Sitting down, cuddling, while she's cooking, playing video games, on the computer, in the shower or making love. I need something to grab. Titties aren't ideal for that in most situations. But a big ole butt...YEP. Having both is great, but if I HAD to choose one over the other, a gal with a quality ass wins in the end. Don't worry. You too will one day graduate to ass status. It's a wonderful, brave new world. My girl agrees too.

Oh, and thanks :)

Such an ode to Hometown. Bravo sir, bravo.

If you want to see a collection of large breasts, look up Toy Soldier. He doesn't post here anymore, but he always had....interesting...photos in his house. He posted in MarkMan's pick up threads a lot. His posts were hilarious and were nothing short of provocative.

Anyway, I do look forward to getting The Amazon. I am sure there are a ton of Yokos out there, but which one to get is another story.

Grabbed the A/B Velvet. I've been on the fence about her forever and I know I said I'd watch my spending, but it's Velvet, the argument is invalid.

I blame chrono.

For everything.
Okay, perhaps "review" was a bit too strong of a word. Perhaps "preview" would be more suitable?

Regardless, she is breath-taking!

That's fair.
:(

YEAAAAAAAH. New figure. Welcome home.
Nice collection, thanks for sharing. I own three of them [Princess Bitch, Kongiku, and Asmodeus], and they are indeed amazing. I don't own Sorceress, but I'll likely purchase Orchid Seed's version of her when she releases in 2015 2016.

I small tear streamed down my eye while reading this. Bless your soul, -PXG-.
 
Just wondering if anyone here is losing interest in figure collecting? Well I enjoy figure collecting and have build up a good amount, however about to be a former poor college grad transiting into a poorer master/PhD student D: And figure collecting eats up alot of my money.. $250 at the end of the month..

Two weeks after I received a delivery from Mandarake through them they sent me an invoice for a "quaranatine processing fee" that totaled $47.30, what I had bought was only 2000 Yen. They waived it after an angry email, if they are going to expect me to pay this they could have at least told me before I signed for it.

That is suuuper sketch. I've never had problems the 3-4 times I've bought through Amazon.jp and used DHL, but I'd totally choose another service over it if I could >_>

I am REALLY wanting that 2020 Miku, oh man. I can't let myself go in that deep, guys @_@

Goddamnit Chrono, that gif made me go rewatch the last 6 episodes of KLK. Couldn't resist the Naked Sun scene but needed the buildup as well.

It's a hobby. If you can't afford it, set it aside. You have your collection, you can live without adding to it :)

Also, Amishpriest, your avatar's arms really freak me out.

Ouch, forgot to send payment for one figure at AmiAmi and got a past due notice. But I just paid it. I guess they give you some leeway with a reminder. Thought I paid it already.
