So opinions if this is a bootleg or just manufacturer variance?

Note the difference in the font for 36 and the poor screenprint of the tamiya logo and the 36 band.

Really looks pretty scruffy.
- lacking white lines or very bad white lines
- unclean borders
- the Tamiya logo is printed on the red/blue squares or overflows to it
- the blue square looks like it's a little bit above the red square

Don't know if it's a bootleg but the paint job sure isn't the best.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Had to cancel my preorder on Figma Akagi, that sucks.

this baby is shipping! Thank you anime jungle and hobby japan AX DEAL

I am awaiting this as well

Prisma Illya (Anime ver.)

From the spin-off manga of ‘Fate/stay night’ with its second anime season currently airing, ‘Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya’ comes a 1/8th scale figure of the main character Illya based on the designs from the anime series!

Everything about her magical girl outfit has been faithfully included on the figure, down to the Class Card holder at her hips! A special base is also included allowing you to display her jumping through the air – a dynamic pose that fans of the series are sure to enjoy!

Nendoroid Sinon

From the anime series ‘Sword Art Online II’ comes a Nendoroid of one of the best snipers in GGO, Sinon! Her arms are specially articulated allowing for all sorts of poses with her beloved rifle, the Hecate II. Sinon even comes with alternate parts that allow you to display her prone in a sniping pose, as well as shooting effect parts!

Both a standard expression showing her cool and collected side, as well as an adorable embarrassed expression are both included. Be sure to add the cool and cute Sinon to your collection!

Preview: Bravely Second - Magnolia 1/8 Complete Figure by Square Enix

Meshi here, ready to serve up another heaping helping of figure previews. Groundbreaking 3DS game Bravely Default was critically acclaimed for its incredible characters and plot. Based on the preview art by Akihiko Yoshida, Bravely Second is going to be another grand slam for Square Enix. Today we view one of his new characters, Magnolia. Let's dig in!

Preview: Fate/EXTRA CCC - Saber 1/6 Complete Figure by cLayz

Meshi here, ready to serve up another heaping helping of figure previews. No matter what your moe preference is, there is a Saber out there for you. Today's figure brings us the most versatile servant in the Fate series as she appears in Fate/EXTRA CCC--that is to say, in a latex bridal jumpsuit with bondage accents. See? Something for everyone! Let's dig in!

And now for random stuff on those blogs:

Hidamari Sketch author and Madoka Magica character designer Ume Aoki spreads her rosy-cheek love to Kill la Kill's Ryuko. Please please please do Mako-chan next!

Vocaloid in Disguise
Slim curves designed to move that are perfect for hugging... corners. I could only be talking about the GT300 class BMW Z4 driven by Good Smile Racing. Now Macross designer Kawamori Shoji has found a way to make that tight frame even sexier by transforming the car into a mecha version of Hatsune Miku! See animation studio Sanzigen make the magic happen in the clip above.

Hatsune Miku Evolved
Shoji Kawamori isn't the only one redesigning Miku. The latest video from Mitchie M, "Burenai ai De," uses a new character model that's too cute for the screen, which is why it's breaking into the real world. The package for Digieye blue light-blocking eye drops doubles as an augmented reality stage, so pick up a box today and bridge the gap between the virtual and reality.

Shopping at the Speed of Sound

Korosensei from Assassination Classroom can move at Mach 20 so buying local delicacies from every prefecture of Japan is easier than pressing the "add to cart" button. At least he has the decency to bring back treats for his students! After all, they won't have time to visit these places before he destroys the world...

I Got an Eye on You

Cube Works, the geniuses behind classy knickknacks like the USB-powered humping dogs, are bringing out a charming figure of Migi from Parasyte with a light-up eye. Mold his bendy arms to wrap around your backpack or belt strap and take the little bugger on an adventure to your local anime club or the sushi restaurant. Imagine the look of surprise on the waitresses face when you flash her!

Yeah, definitely. Returned it back in any case.

Guess my hunt for danbo still continues. Probably the only figure that I really want.

Where did you buy it from?

 

[Antiwhippy]

Ebay, which should say it all really. At least the dude refunded me.

It's mostly because I'm pretty skittish when it comes to ordering stuff overseas, but it's kinda hard to find in australia. I think I might jump onto CDjapan's danbo that they have up for preorder, seeing that I've had pretty positive experiences with them.

I preordered a full amiibo set on Amazon, there's no release date as yet so plenty of time to swap stuff out... or leave the entire order as it is... ;_;

Hah, yeah. Looks like it. I figured that they reopened orders because they would start shipping soon.

Meanwhile, at Nintendo HQ: "Tons of collectable Nintendo figures right before Christmas? We can handle that, right guys? Guys...?"

This is an appropriate depiction of events.

Same here. I cancel anytime. Just wanted to get in just in case they sell out the first shipment.

As soon as I saw those legs I had to order her.

You guys aren't buying the game, are you? Just the figures because Nintendo figs are so rare?

How big are they? I might get a set if they meet my requirements.

Why wouldn't we buy Smash Bros?

I only really want Samus but she seems so fragile compared to the others.

I don't think they have an exact height listed for the amiibos but I'm expecting them to be around the size of the skylanders/disney infinity figures

I'll probably have a bunch of games that are compatible with them but I don't care about using them. I bought Disney Infinity figures just for the figures alone. Didn't even play that game yet.

Need Disgaea 5 figures:

This design is wonderful ("Usalia", is it?). I hope she gets a scale

And what do we have in Germany on Amazon? A stupid placeholder for Mario (and only Mario) for 29,99 Euro. I wanna order iiiiiiit so much!

@Freezasaurus
Of course I buy Smash Bros.! I even buy it two times, for the 3DS and the Wii U^^

@Toki767
My thoughts of her, excactly. Sh'es so slim and everything but I will still order her as soon as she's on Amazon.

You can try Rakuten, but only use trusted stores.

When I purchased Nichijou's Banpresto prize figs I bought them through Yahoo Japan Auction. I also used a middle man. Costs went up pretty quick.

Rakuten works too.

Not for QuesQ I won't!

[I actually don't own a figure from QuesQ, but from what I've seen, they're not top-tier quality. Nothing personally wrong with them, but I'd never spend that amount on a figure from them. I'd much rather go for GSC/MF/Amakuni.]

Speaking of KanColle, I just discovered the existence of this cutie. Not sure how I missed her.
