That's life for ya!
And no, not Tharja. Though that's a good idea. I need to give her an outdoor photo shoot.

Personally I'd love to see some Tharja pics from you.

Yea, Amiami. I don't about the Sonico though. I don't like that note on the page that basically said "fix it if broken pls". Has anyone ordered it from there and received it broken or damaged?
I know, can't wait :>
Okkie, order placed!
YUM!

Yay for stupid pricing!
Well, it happened.
I pre-ordered Kongo [Half-Damage Ver.].
It was meaningless to resist.
What sold me was the amount of detail on her. I was reading Kahotan's blog:
http://mikatan.goodsmile.info/en/2014/04/10/18th-scale-kongo-half-damage-ver/
and all of the little damage that's evident on both her clothing as well as her ship [the fractured split in the back you can actually see the varying levels of the inner ship!] pushed me over the edge. There's just a lot to look at, and even the little things like her stockings being torn, showing her skin underneath. It's impressive.
I still haven't cancelled Shiro, though, since she's still over a month away from release and can cancel at any time [thank you, HLJ!]. I've more or less decided to let her go, though, but even still I'll keep my pre-order just in-case I have a second change of thought.

I'm glad you all seemed to enjoy Maou's charms
Request noted! FWIW, I did take some quickie photos of her and posted them the previous thread.
Alright, here's the next photo shoot! empty's Solange and Ali Baba from Code of Princess and both designed by Kinu Nishimura.
There are fifteen photos this time, but since it's covering two figures that's just seven and a half each! (There are also two "bonus" photos that were a bit redundant with the others, but they are good enough that I think there's merit for anyone that wants to see just a little more.)
For being such a relatively minor player in the scale PVC arena, both Solange and Ali have amazing sculpts and incredibly clean paint jobs. Look at the intricacies of Solanges "armor". Check out Ali's musculature and belt. It seems kind of tragic to me that Ali came out so well and yet she sold so poorly. Only 14 people on MFC claim to own her, and I'm one of them. I'll admit that I would likely not have purchased her had she not been discounted 70%, but she's really quite incredible in person, and I hope my photos have captured that better than the official photos.
Solange is great too, but of course she was going to sell better because boobs. I've been needing to give her a photoshoot for something like 2 years now, but never was able to do her justice. Ali gave me an occasion to try again.

OH MY GOD!
OHHHHH MY GOD!
Just look at the version of Satsuki that Good Smile Company chose to use for their release.
Yeah, it's that Garage Kit that everyone wanted, including me.
I was debating whether I should purchase Phat Company's Satsuki to compliment their Ryuko...but how can I say no to this?

I would have liked a figure of Satsuki in her school uniform/untransformed Junketsu, But this is fantastic too. Though I've already preordered Phat's Satsuki

I think the face needs a little bit of work, but I'm liking this. She's noticeably less extravagant than GSC Ryuko, though. Glad I waited for the GSC set. Now for the love of God, give us Goku Uniform Mako. Do it GSC, do it.
Preordering day one. This garage kit was the one I was hoping to get picked up.

so after doing some more research on that Ahri nendoroid that they're going to have at Worlds:
looks like she'll have a Charm piece too, in addition to an optional nine tails piece. man, i really want to get her, better save up for ebay... unless GSC puts her up on web shop, now that would be great. i won't get my hopes up though...

You made my day. Thank you.
We deserve more "normal" clothes Kill La Kill figures! Except for a fight club Mako.
Yay, I ordered Kongo day 1 so it's nice to see others noticed how fabulous she looks.

Go buy it then sell it for big bucks over the Internets!

Anyone from figure GAF from Japan?
I could but I am too lazy. I have to book a ticket for LoL tournament which is already painful process cause so many people rush to buy it.
And I have to go extra early and line-up in front of the store to buy the figure, but there is always chance of it being sold out cause they have limited supply and it's first come first served.
Oh thank God. I was originally going to buy the premade GK from E204, but now I don't have to.
I don't think that's the final sculpt. They could just be showing off the GK to say that they'll be adapting it. Could be wrong though.
nice, lemme know when i can preorder

If you want to celebrate her birthday, you do it in style
Yeah I'm pretty sure that's the actual GK being shown.
I am not worthy! Also, Happy Birthday Miku-chan! (I went to personally deliver my wishes to her room in Project Diva F)

Never enough Miku! Here are a few of my fave shots I've taken in the past to celebrate the twin-tailed one's 7th (!) Birthday:
Can't forget Mikudayo!

So I'm guessing this is some kind of garage kit? Automatic translation kinda sucks...

That Eren Nendo is a work of art.
Ok, you sold me on Ali. She's still on sale at plamoya, so definitely going to grab her.

Her face/neck kind of remind me of that horribly deformed Amazon GK. Same group did this one?

Thanks for more great pictures! Awesome details and colors on both. Nishimura's art is freaking awesome and translates nicely here.

I was too weak to avoid backordering this from AmiAmi since I've wanted it for so long...my poor wallet this September.
so payment is up for mikan at amiami
shipping is ~1700yen grand total of ~10300yen
should i worry about canadian customs? the source material is very.. grey area.. haha
ok, i'm just going through the last couple of pages, what's this about it being a cast off :|, any more info on that, now i'm kinda worried
having paid shipping yet, guess i'll email amiami
this thread moves too fast
It's forced, as in they pretty much cut/tore the clothing off. Not the way it was meant to be displayed. You're fine.

its not castoff. Its FORCED castoff, meaning it was never designed to be castoff, and you have to cut off her clothes to be cast off. And even then, there is no detail so its like what is the point
ALTER does not make cast off figures (that I know of)
That's so bad, I'd actually consider buying it. Kinda like the infamous "Sader is woe" figure.
It really isn't anything to worry about. Forced cast-off means some parts of the figure aren't fixed to it and can be removed if you cut them off. That's it. A byproduct of the production process, not an advertised feature.
