I feel bad for anyone having to go through any delays at the moment. When it happens to an item you're really ready to own, it makes for a pretty bad time. It has only happened to me once, but hopefully never again (for a long time anyways).

 

[Bombless]

No mention of Metallia?

There's still next monday.

 

[Einbroch]

Link delayed?

I'm more than okay with that.

 

[Tempy]

Cute!

I missed out on Nendoroid background sets; what should I be searching for if I want compatible backgrounds & props?

I've seen people use Re-Ment miniature toy sets and Sylvanian families playsets as Nendoroid props. Both seem to be around the right size.

 

[Lord Ghirahim]

GSC release update :

August 2014 ⇒ October 2014
Nendoroid Link: The Wind Waker ver.

Thank you, God of delays.

Garage kit you say. Fucckk! I want that, but no way I'll be bothered to bust out my Picasso skills to put it together.

 

[ThePeoplesBureau]

Thank you, God of delays.

I have to admit, I wasn't particularly disappointed by this delay. Always nice to have a bit of financial breathing space! *FILLS GAP WITH OTHER ORDERS*

I don't usually go for bikini figures, but I'm drawn to best chuunibyou girl Ranko from iM@S Cinderella Girls:

What's the quality like with Beach Queens?

 

[Koriandrr]

why is the very first thing i see a silent hill figure

that nunnally figure is adorable

...because I wanted to creep you guys out..
or I may or may not have a fetish for creepy nurses.

Beach Queens are "okay". Not Great, not bad, somewhere n-between.

For the price they're fine, if you're a fan of the character/sculpt. Just don't expect top-tier painting or anything.

 

[Lord Ghirahim]

I just remembered I have two of these pre-ordered through a proxy.

The supposedly experienced proxy turned out to be bad at both English and Japanese, so I won't be using them again. I really hope they don't mess up my order somehow.

 

[BGBW]

Damn delays.

Well good thing I didn't pad out my order then.

 

[Mokoi]

I just found out there is a Suigintou Nendoroid being released. I pre-ordered that right away.

 

[Tidd]

August 2014 ⇒ September 2014
Rias Gremory: Bunny Ver.

NOOO! WHY? ;__;
You could have delayed Mikan(well, she will be delayed because Alter) and Ryuko but not my Rias. </3

 

[phoenix296]

Hopefully Alter Asuka also gets delayed to October so I can have Link and her in the same package.

 

[BGBW]

Is there an easy way to see what is coming out in a certain month?

 

[JoeFu]

Talking with phoenix has been bad. He is making me want more nendoroids. I really like the Monogatari series and the first nendoroid (out of two) I ever bought was Hachikuji. While walking around the Taipei City Mall the other day and looking around I saw a few of the Senjougahara Premium Box things. I really want to buy it, but I know I will probably regret buying it once I hand over the cash for it. My Hachikuji is chilling in my closet back in America and I probably will never display it. Why do I want to buy these

Best you can do is go to MFC and do an advanced search and set the release date as the month you're looking for. Course, stuff could be delayed, but it's as up-to-date as possible.

Eh, my friend owns a LOT of Nendoroids, and while they're cool, I don't like em as much as scaled figures. So I'll stick with the GSC set of scaled figures for Monogatari, no need to get 8 more Nendoroids.

 

[Femto.]

Just ordered the Berserker Armor Guts figma off of Mandarake for 9k unopened, usually goes for 8k opened, I can finally scratch that one off.

 

[Giolon]

Picked up the $34 Code of Princess Ali Baba from Plamoya. It had gone back up to $91 the day after the previous link to her was postedBeing few weeks ago, but was back down tonight.

Edit: Looks like I got the last one!

 

[BGBW]

Nendos work for certain character but look bad for others. Isabelle from New Leaf works perfectly as one. Luigi on the other hand looks downright odd.

I think Luigi looks fine. Mario on the other hand...

Spoiler

Still going to buy him

 

[kewlmyc]

GUYS GUYS!!! I'M SCARED!

Alter is actually releasing something on time!!!!

http://myfigurecollection.net/item/166752

A month where one of my Koto figures gets delayed, a nendo gets delayed, yet the Alter figure gets released on time? Feels like I'm in an episode of the Twilight Zone.

Also congrats to the Ryuko buyers for having their figure only delayed once. I'll just sit here in a corner while my Kyoko is probably delayed again...

 

[BGBW]

I already have random Mario and Luigi figures (most recently from the UK McD's toys) so I can be a bit picky. Only thing I really liked about the luigi nendo was the accessories.

Thing is I think Luigi could work at that scale, but the artist got his face really wrong.

Perhaps they should have based them off of the Super Mario-Kun manga designs:

 

[Snkfanatic]

Glad to hear Ryuko is coming out. Little bummed on the Link Nendo delay but no biggie.

 

[Femto.]

Bummed about Link too, I guess figma Archer is riding solo this month..

 

[javac]

Got a parcel coming today containing this in one box...

And Momohime in another. I think they weigh like 6kg combined. Wut.

As a result of that I found this:

Also been a fan of furniture design and this chair design is one of my favourites. Wonder where I can find it.

Yes actually, you definitely NEED this. I own it. I know these things. You must own it.

If it doesn't, you can experience unboxing everything outside the front door. lol

I have no idea how big it's going to be. Madoka is supposed to be big...I think her box is comparable to an Xbox 360 box? Asuka and Mari are in there too. Fuck. Delivery was mega expensive, SAL.

If it doesn't, you can experience unboxing everything outside the front door. lol

My blue psylocke finally came last friday after being lost in transition. Didn't even get a achance to open it yet. Hopefully it lives up hr pictures people posted

Dear god John! Don't venture Amiami's preowned section without steeling yourself XD

I have no idea how big it's going to be. Madoka is supposed to be big...I think her box is comparable to an Xbox 360 box? Asuka and Mari are in there too. Fuck. Delivery was mega expensive, SAL.

I have no idea how you managed to get SAL and all those figures in the box including Madoka XD but yeah from images her box alone is huge:

 

[Snkfanatic]

Holy crap at that Madoka box lol, so that's why you guys always mention the size of it o_o

That im@s Rin is a nice figure... I'm not even into im@s and I have been tempted to get that one.

As for the SAL shipping, I don't know for sure but the message from AmiAmi when they do forced EMS shipping says that it's because of shipping "size restrictions in your country" (I'm US) so how they process shipping may be different in US and EU.

I lost a room in the house to it

Mine's in the closet with all my other figure boxes. That closet is getting full...

In other semi-related news I just now realized how to get "around" amiami's "not found" error when clicking links to pre-owned figures that have already been sold in order to see what was being linked. Just remove the -R### from the end of the URL. I feel like a dumb for not noticing sooner.

 

[javac]

I don't know, on Japan post it says:

Weight
The maximum weight: 30 kg

• The maximum weight may be different for some countries/areas.
• For details, please refer International Mail Conditions.

 

[cajunator]

by the way, I just unboxed my Kuroneko beach queen figure and it seems the quality is actually not bad! Well painted and sculpted. couldnt find any of the usual flaws. Wave is doing a good job. At least with this figure they are.

I honestly didn't know about this either.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Picked up the new Jakks Pacific Nintendo figures (Donkey Kong, Bowser, Link and Yoshi) to go with my growing Figuarts/Figma/Smash/whatever collection. If only I could find Figma Link and Pit for good prices!

Most of Figure Gaf hates these, we have a thread for those of us interested in them.
