Nah, the last tag should've been "gigantic_breasts" instead of just large. Large is too small for her.

Not that I'm against that, mind you.

Here's a really nice picture I found of the Abyssal shipgirls -

I'd like to be the Admiral in that fleet.

 

[Professor Renegade]

Alright, dumb question: what the hell are ship girls? All I know about them is that y'all are obsessed with them.

 

[chrono01]

I hope you've got Gift's. It's amazing.

I don't, only the Good Smile Company and Max Factory version. I was debating ordering Gift's too, but it was being released at a difficult time for me, so I had to pass.

She does look amazing, though.

It also describes Mammon.

That it does!

I am okay with this.

I would do anything to be in that fleet. Scrub floors, cook, clean, do the shopping, etc.

Anthropomorphized Japanese Warships. They're from an online CCG (Collectible Card Game) called Kantai Collection, featuring real-life Japanese warships represented as cute anime girls. There's now an anime, as well. The villains of the series are the Abyssal ships (Wo-Class, Re-Class, Battleship Princess, etc), which are an alien enemy and not real warships.

Yeah but the ocean contains sharks and/or krakens. I'm pretty sure there are 0 recorded instances of kraken attacks in colorado

So it's Strike Witches with ships.

Hell, I would be living with the sharks and krakens, so that's crossed off. The only problem would be finding food, they probably want fresh meat, like people.

PS: I wasn't talking about living with the shipgirls, but with the Abyssal fleet instead.

 

[Arkadios]

Here's a really nice picture I found of the Abyssal shipgirls -

Oh-oh. I know where this picture came from...
But it made me realize how cool will be if I collect all the Abyss Fleet Girls figures....
I am so doomed....

 

[johnsmith]

Blizzard, plz. I'd buy either Sideshow or Kotobukiya versions of these instantly.

 

[Freezasaurus]

So it's Strike Witches with ships.

Pretty much, yeah. But with fewer loli-butts and tons more profit.

Blizzard, plz. I'd buy either Sideshow or Kotobukiya versions of these instantly.

NO! STAHP! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT UR DOING!

I'm not that well versed into Sideshow, but please show me a figure of theirs that really look awesome, I'm not convinced yet. I saw a princess Zelda and it was atrocious. She looked like an extra from Jersey Shore.

 

[R_thanatos]

Edit : Also I've now started the Muramasa DLC on Vita and this happened.


Need a Miike-Okoi figure pls Alter. AND MAKE THE DAMN YUZURUHA ALREADY ARRRGHHHH.

Oh God I'd pay so much for that. Specifically in her kitty-kimono.

Ah i knew i wasn't alone thinking this . The character demands it so much !

I mean i want it so much !

Oh well, one less thing then. Which one did they make? That Ganondorf? Nevermind, Ganondorf is F4F too.

mwhahaha I lol'd so hard at that... thou yeah, how the hell do you make look the hottest Zelda in history that bad!?

Magic, probably. I wouldn't mind a tanned Zelda, like a Gerudo girl, but that specific model looked like it had fake tan, which is kinda hard to pull off.

Spoiler

(Still trying to find a ganguro girl figure that looks good)

 

[dakkumauji]

So now that we're on the topic, what's everyone's fetishes when it comes to figures? Note: fetish does not have to be sexual, it merely means an "excessive and irrational commitment."

Well I usually like the characters first and if its cheap, lol

But from the few scaled figures I have, it would probably be:
Ties
Armor
Basketball Outfits

 

[Professor Renegade]

Not sure if that's my thing. Guess my wallet is staying right where it is, Chrono.

That was made by First 4 Figures, not sideshow, and we've all talked shit on their statues all the time.

This is the only one I own at the moment.

But have the green skin version of this ordered.

 

[chrono01]

Not sure if that's my thing. Guess my wallet is staying right where it is, Chrono.

Haha, no worries at all. Saved money is always a good thing.

Also, more KanColle for me!

Hrm. It looks like her hair is more detailed in the left image, but maybe that's just the picture. I know I'd definitely be going for that one though. (I will say the shape of the green face looks better though.)

 

[Freezasaurus]

In hindsight, I wish I grabbed that MJ statue when she was available. I'll definitely be getting the Black Cat one when she becomes available for pre-order.

 

[Ryuuroden]

Goddammit to hell Cinderella Girls anime, not even done with the episode and as soon as I found out that girl is Shibuya Rin I absolutely need her GSC figure ;.;

It must be the Mio effect.

My Sideshow Hellboy PF is mother fucking awesome (for a sense of scale, check out the Colossal Titan nedo on top of the besta):

Also the upcoming Queen of the Dead PF (

Spoiler

had better be mother fucking awesome

):

The problem with Sideshow is that some statues come out looking mother fucking awesome, and the others look like they were painted by a 4th grade art class, the best thing is they allow returns if you get one you can't live with, and if your an international buyer they will send replacement parts/statues for free if something gets broken provided you smash the damaged part/statue with a hammer and take a photo of it if your happy with the replacement.

In hindsight, I wish I grabbed that MJ statue when she was available. I'll definitely be getting the Black Cat one when she becomes available for pre-order.

Join the waitlist, she's not gone until sold out status hits, people cancel/credit card go bad/etc all the time, you still got a chance...

This is why I'm terrified to watch the anime.

I watched IDOLM@STER after it finished airing, so many of the figures were already gone/released by then. Thus, my need to acquire them all was sated.

However, to watch Cinderella Girls now when figures are being released? I'm doomed.

Nah, I'm not paying them $25 unless I'm guaranteed one. I'm content to say I missed the boat on this one. I'll get Black Cat for sure as soon as pre-orders open.

It was killed.
Then revived.
Then killed again.
Revived once more.
Killed.
And there it rests.

Guess I glad not into KanColle heh, even through those heavy cruisers nendoroids especially are pretty nice.

Just get Shima and Amatsu, then you'll be good to go.

That pic... doesn't look all that bad!

Which means it's $700

It's at least no where near as insulting as their Zero Suit Samus.

Who else was a victim, I missed it. This thread moves too fast.

 

[omlet]

I just wanted to share that after more than three decades on planet earth I finally tried instant ramen for the first time not too long ago. I hardly ever eat out so it's not like I spend a whole lot on food in the first place, but nonetheless my eyes were opened to the possibilities of more figures by way of the money I could save by eating that every now and then. Ho ho ho ho.

Who else was a victim, I missed it. This thread moves too fast.

I already have Cinderella Girls Minicchus. Ranko figures have been very nice so far; still need to get one of her. Rin doesn't do much for me unfortunately. Mostly looking forward to Ranko, Kaede, Anzu showing up. Koume, Mika/Rika, Kirara might be interesting too.

You might be getting Sideshow and First4Figures confused. Sideshow makes awesome (yet super expensive) figures like this.

Thanks guys, those figures that you've shown are much better than the ones I had in mind, now I wouldn't mind if Blizzard made a contract with them.

Added Bombless and Chrono for Chain Chronicle. If anyone else wants to add me: 189056062.

Not that far in and I agree that there's tons of p,oential for figures with some of these character designs.

Feel free to add me.

Ooh a Chain Chronicle player! Add me up : Friend ID:133511322

Not a fan of Aludra but there's SO many characters that would make great figures. There's tons of great designs in that game and for once the men aren't forgotten (though I feel there's less male characters than female).

Started playing Chain Chronicles as well added all of you cept Chrono and johnsmith couldn't find/remember if you put your codes up, mine's 196,662,112 Billy
