Oh man.... DRAGON AGE BISHOUJO
Do it, Bioware. Doooooooo it. Koto already does the Mass Effect bishoujos for them. It couldn't be a hard sell.
Given the YEARS it takes for one freaking piece to be made, I'd rather not.

I'd think Koto would make more money if they started a Dead or Alive bishoujo line.
They'd have my money that's for sure!
Dat body tho

I like the way you think. I would love it if they had Cassandra, and Morrigan.
I prefered the original colour.

She's curvy. Man, you guys all like stick-thin ladies. Ya'll couldn't handle Arshes Nei.
Eh, they're both fine.

Oh man, I didn't even realize the face was different. Yeah, original was better.
I keep tellin these jive turkeys they need more Arshes Nei in their lives.

i completely agree that stores like these needs to have marked up prices in order to survive
but, if your items are going to be 2-3x the original price, if they go out of business, they wont be getting any empathy from me

Nakahara? I really like that one. She doesn't seem as lewd as most of their stuff.

She's a nice one, for sure. Waiting for N-Y to offer her.
As for Kongou, it wouldn't surprise me. I need to wait until the end of the month for her, though.
It's kind of funny. If you thinking about it, I'd expect the figure I posted early by SkyTube to be a Native release, and the Native one to be SkyTube. They kind of...switched places in my mind.
I will say that Nakahara Tomoe is definitely one of the more classy Native figures I've seen, while still being sexy.

She doesn't look like she's cast-off, which doesn't bother me one way or the other. And she seems to come with both the table and the umbrella, yeah? That makes her a pretty big piece.
She is cast off, both upper and [apparently] the bottom. Native said they'll be releasing pictures of her cast-off options soon [of course they'll be censored].
And yeah, she comes with a lot of stuff which is probably why she costs as much as she does.

Ah, yeah those prices are pretty hefty. I was thinking of buying some of their Jojo figures, but I would still be paying less with shipping through Amiami. shit is nuts yo, but it doesn't help that our dollar has been tanking for a while now.

Chrono-kun, you perv.
Nah, I'm going to display her cast-on. I'm just interested in knowing the full extent of something before I purchase.
That's the reason I'm going with anyway.

The full extent of her genitals that are sculpted, I bet.
I'm a gentleman, I'll have you know.
Wait, SAL is 36k? Are you sure they're not shipping you an entire ship?
Yikes, I got my kongo nendo for that many yenz.
He ninja edited (I saw 36k too lol)
I almost had a heart attack before that edit.

lol, yeah. When shipping is $300, it's time to get out of this hobby.

I think 8k was the closest I've ever come.
Also, Griffon totally ripped off Kotobukiya's Sinon, but did it worse:

Amiami is great for figures and merch in general (both new and used), or there's Mandarake if you're looking for used stuff exclusively. Not sure if the devs for those games have specific stores though.
We should probably put all the info on where to buy and shipping and stuff in the OP like the last thread.
Normally I'd say read the list of shops in the OP but since johnsmith never actually went back and filled it in, sooo...... read the previous OP! If you don't even want to do that just go to amiami/mandarake and find stuff you want (they may not have it in stock right now but you can at least know what you want to then look for).
Main places:
http://amiami.com/ - make it your first stop, but not your only stop
http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/ - all preowned, all legit, prices usually better than amiami preowned, but easy to miss out on something due to the type of shop they are
https://www.amazon.co.jp/?tag= - sometimes has sales that beat amiami or stock that amiami is out of but only certain things will ship international (they use 3 day DHL express and you can't change the shipping options)
https://www.amazon.com/?tag=neogaf0e-20 (actual amazon or known good marketplace sellers) - usually you will pay a little more here because but not always, so check prices here before importing (and figure that you will pay at least $10 on average for most figure shipping from Japan)
http://myfigurecollection.net/ - always check if someone is selling what you're looking for here... you won't always find a good deal, but sometimes you will (and you can also get a laugh out of people trying to sell easy-to-find figures for exorbitant amounts)
http://1999.co.jp/ - carries a lot of the same stuff amiami does... doesn't always offer discounts quite as good but usually has things available longer
AmiAmi is the favorite shop of many, myself included. They don't allow cancellations [some exceptions, but don't push them], but their prices are the best of the shops [IMO] and they ship items out extremely quickly.
http://www.amiami.com/
Hobby Search are great as well, although their prices are a bit higher generally. I've never had issues with them, though. They allow cancellations for most pre-order items [within the first 5-7 days of placing the pre-order] and ship the items are quickly [from my experience].
http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/
These are the big two, but you should easily find several items centered around Daganronpa/Persona.
Search away!

Please make January, Nanami-chan. Pleeeeeease.
Nuuuu, my wallet is starting to feel the despair!
Thanks guys. To be honest, my boss at work (Gaming+a side of hobby stuff) brings in figures from time to time....not all of them of course.
Was thinking about requesting for him if he is able to bring in certain stuff as well..that or I could import it directly from AmiAmi...I'll give it a look.
Oh they actually send an email about delays? I'm expecting two of my figs to be delayed ahaha.
Chiaki is one of those.
