Just kidding, we won't get back onto that topic again. I remember last time...

No word on the males, though A+ does have a pretty sweet looking figure of Fighter up for pre-order. The bad news? He's Polyresin and 1/4.5 scale so he's super pricey and going to be fragile. They also teased a Sorceress of the same line. MH does do more male figures (One Piece) than any other company though.
Glad you all enjoyed the photos! I'll get back on processing those Rebecca and Ryuuko pics I swear.
She's looking pretty great from the pics I've seen, but one thing I noticed that's odd is that she doesn't have the glass eye inserts that nearly all other Bishoujos have these days (and the ones that did in the earlier days were usually the ones w/ the "pink eye" problem). They're just stamped on. I wonder if they just figured since they're green they don't need to bother?
Maybe to make her eyes seem more alien?
And hurry up with those other photos man, you keep dangling them just beyond our sight!
If she hadn't taken her I would have. That >_< face is just amazing. Though by the looks of it the mace is too heavy to be held in the air. Still, brilliant nendo.

Man, I just spent four hours or so swapping out figures in my cases. Ugh. I'm not entirely happy with some of the placements, but that can be an ongoing effort. The Dragon's Crown ladies are gorgeous. I'm not crazy about the support under Amazon's leg because it occasionally slides out of place and can be tricky to get back where it really really needs to be due to the angle of her leg. Sometimes the support just slides along the leg until it's in a place that renders it useless. The grip Sorceress has on the frog also seems tenuous. Other than that, they're amazing. I had to put them on a billy shelf because lololol at a detolf shelf. The bases make shit look way too cramped on a single detolf shelf, and it's kind of an eyesore.
Also finally got around to unboxing Needa Schuetlich after months and months, and she went right back in the box. Most frustrating figure I've ever dealt with, and exactly the reason I fucking hate cast-offs. And one of the arms was busted right at the part where the arm connects to the hand. There were alternate arms, but I gave up when it was too frustrating to get her top closed on the side.
Another one I unboxed was PLUM's Okabe, but that was a no-go, as his feet are angled differently and there are no pegs in his base, so he just stands on it. He kept falling on his face. Pity, he would have looked nice next to my new Koto Kurisu.
GSC Frau came out great, and it was fun figuring out how to position all of the empty pocky boxes.
Also, I had to krazy glue Gisen's shoe back on, as it stuck to the base when I took her off of it while the rest of her foot went with the rest of the figure. XD It was an easy fix, though.
It also became apparent how much better DC bishoujos come out than the Marvel onces for some reason. I used to have the Marvel ones on a higher shelf, but swapped them around since I'm more fond of the DC ladies, despite my preference for Marvel comics over DC.

Sounds like some unhappy moments, but at least it sounds like you have a few figures you can unload, or maybe not since they are broken now.
Omg Makoto and shes based on that super cute artworkkkkkk
A wild Cajun appears!
Trying to find info about a figure (that is not released yet, AFAIK). Asked about it a page or two ago but I think it got lost in the shuffle. Anyway, if anyone can help me ID this one I'd appreciate it. From what I can remember it's an anime scale, she's got a spear, she's sort of turned half-way looking over her shoulder, plainclothes (not armor) and has a really long (blue?) scarf around her neck. I looked for it on MFC but couldn't find it.
Also unrelated but that yen to dollar ratio is really nice right now

Yes, that one, guess I was remembering wrong since it's blue hair not blue scarf.
No tags, no wonder I couldn't find it. Thanks.

just remember that its from hyakka samurai warriors. Easy way to search is "hyakka"
I got the whole set from alter and they look great.

It really is a great line, I just wish they'd get the dark samurai girls out quicker.

I want the master version of hanzo and matabei first.
Then ishin, and the pink hair one. The other two are still great but i like those better

you probably searched the show. ishin was only in the second season which has a different title.
Just type hyakka in the search box. It shows
OH MY GOD SHES IN COLOR NOW!

Sweet! Going to look great next to my Sakura. Wouldn't mind if GSC makes Ichiro and Gemini next...
You know what would be awesome? Gundam Nendos! Same approach as above.

I want that Nendo just for the pure fun of taking pics of my other Nendos using that mech lol
They still make SD Gunpla. :x

I wrote to GSC the other day telling them I was surprised there were no Jojo nendos yet and would they consider making any in the future? Actually got a note back this morning saying they'd consider my request.
I mean, I know it's likely a stock reply, but still, the dream is real.

I hope that isn't a spoiler lol. Of course I do need to get off my ass and play that first game.
First episode was great. One of the few series I was hyped for just on potential alone, so I'm glad it looks like it might deliver. Still don't like Cerberus' design, though.

its modeled after all of the preexecution scenes, I cant say if that one is or isnt in the game

They did make these punishment sprites for all characters I believe, even the Japanese demo had different people dying etc. So you should be fine, speaking of....I need to play the sequel lol but Smash, Fantasy Life, Shadow of Mordor combo hit me near the time I was about to play lol.
I didn't even know an anime was coming out. This is good news. I'll watch it to justify the purchase to myself. I was somewhat regretting it.

Received my September order today. It's no wonder the shipping cost so much since the box they used is huge and pretty heavy at about 6kg. The Alvis & Lavi figure is so cute and the other figures look great enough that I'd say it was worth it though.

i played RoB for a while to kill time, and its an awful game
now Im tempted to watch this anime

It is and the cycle of needing more materials for crafting for better equipments and such is addicting lol.

Yeah rip.
And all I want out of it are well-animated/produced occurrences of Shimakaze/Amatsukaze doing anything. All the dough that it's raking in and I still bet the visuals are gonna blow.

RIP any progress in any of my other games if I start this

Reminds me of Animal Crossing...and I dumped over a 100 hours into New Leaf.
I said I'd get it over the launch weekend, but I completely forgot about it. Guess I'll pick it up when I have time this weekend.
And then spend 3 hours creating and naming my character. lol
