I'm done for a while. HLJ had the Yoshino Nendoroid back in stock and I snagged it. It was my most wanted Nendo when I started looking into them months ago, but I only recently had the financial means to get into collecting.

Pretty stoked! I'm not gonna visit any storefront for at least a month. I've already spent ~$230, no more.

For now.

Shunya's Fiona for 4,9k is a great bargain but if I had the money, I think I would order the PAK Faora-Ul, 4,4k is a an almost reasonable price for the figure with nearly none existing accessories.

How could such a beauty fall so low? She's stunning. I was always somewhat surprised to see the number of owners of her on MFC fairly low (only 96), so it's not unexpected. Still, I guess people just can't recognize class and perfection when they see it!

She's still sitting on my computer desk all these months later.

Yeah I've always thought it was a damn gorgeous figure myself, not sure what took me so long to order. Guess it's for the better now though lol since I get it for a steal!

Wow that Vertex Noel bargain binned for 4400 yen lol

I feel so happy for not getting her now, in spite of loving her so much.

Plus, classic CT/CS design is so much better than her CP design. Why we can't get a scale figure of her in that...

I am also huge fan of Noel since CT, I don't mind the new design, but the razor blade nipple made change the figure status from "collectible" to "porn".

I also had no idea what the hell is happening to her left leg, it is like some kind of freak accident.


edit:

Mu 12 is also on bargain:

Looks really nice if you have the courage to display her.

Yeah, I have Amakuni's version of her pre-ordered [since I missed out on the original release]. I wanted to love the one from Vertex, but the protruding nipples [and seemingly broken leg] kind of put me off. :/

Been waiting for Chrono Phantasma (Vita) at the moment but I would already like a figure of Bullet as long as it's without nipples. I was a fan of Noel from the beginning but the nipple also turned me off.

I like Noel. I do. In fact, if the Alter sculpt is good, I could very easily pick it up.

But they've made a D-Arts, Nendoroid Petit, Amakuni Scale w/ variant, and Vertex Scale. And then there are the two FREEing Mu-12s, plus the Alter Mu-12.

This is all one character. The only other characters in the entire series to get figures are Makoto and Rachel, each with a one-off figure. Rachel also got a nendo-petit.

I would love a Taokaka figure. :(

Also, I've been giving more thought to the Muramasa from Amakuni

iEvJizfetdU0T.jpg


since I really do love the sculpt, but not the lighter skin color, given the artwork it was based on. [NSFW?]

Anyway, apparently there are several images of Muramasa at the beach [go figure], and she's not as dark as the one in the above image in a few of them, such as this one. [Again, maybe NFSW]

While she should have looked as she did in the original artwork for this release, since that was the image this figure was based on, apparently her skin color varies from artwork to artwork so it's not as thought it's not typical for the portrayal of the character. Also, this one was sculpted by Mohio, the same guy who did the recent Alleyne from Orchid Seed [as well as the EX Color Ver.], and they would definitely look nice standing alongside one another, even with the difference in-size. 2015 [February] IS a long way away, so I have plenty of time to budget for her...

Hm, I admittedly forgot about the Nendoroid Petite (no possible way to get it in Canada at a reasonable price), and totally forgot about the Amakuni Scale figures...

Hm, I think I prefer her proportions from her artwork, compared to the actual sculpt.

I'm still considering her myself. She's exclusive, though, right? I've never pre-ordered an exclusive figure before.

Well, I'm back and I didn't return empty handed.

I can no longer deny I got Nendo-ed. Also Iris is absolutely magnificent. Better than Cyril even. AND DAT WEAPONS PORN HNNNGGG

Seeing you all go apeshit over Red is kind of scary though. Get a grip guys, with such a huge demand he's bound to be released internationally.

I'd probably prefer it if she were more...reasonably-sized, but I do appreciate that they're simply balloons, like so many other manufacturers provide. These actually look like they acknowledge gravity.

Yeah, she's an exclusive. Normally you pay up-front, but Nippon-Yasan allow you to pre-order and pay when the item is released [normally a week or two before]. They don't let you cancel like they used to, though, so be sure on the purchase before you pre-order.

A Kaito, Rin and Len nendos seems like something I never knew existed but kinda want now.

Very nice. I was close to pulling the trigger on that Miku, but I have to stand by my guns.

Nice haul.

Nendoroid's are the biggest danger to your wallet when it comes to collecting, IMO. They're small enough so that they're easy to ship, and reasonably-priced. They're also extremely adorable, and are a lot of fun to swap in/out parts with other Nendoroid. Once you start collecting them, you just want to see your "Nendoroid Army" grow more and more.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

See.

Also, I forgot to mention that once you grab one in a set, you'll feel obligated to collect each and every one. I mean, they're cheap right? And so small! They can easily fit into your collection!

PURE [cute] EVIL!

I also found a Luca nendo being sold on the con floor but not by GSC, so I decided not to touch it. She's the only one I need anymore since Miku and Meiko are being re-released next month. I suspect the rest will follow suit.

Edit : also updated my MFC profile....Good lord. And there was a shop selling an opened Rogue Bishoujo...for the price of 155 Pounds. I just laughed and moved on.
