oh shit dear lord why is so freaking expensive?!

must resiste the urge to buy.... must... resist... :c
She was an exclusive, so they tend to be higher priced than standard figures.

That being said I've seen her priced lower than this, so either her price went up A LOT, or she's overpriced.

No, I'm pretty sure that's lewd. There's just lewd, and lewder where chrono-kun is concerned.
But...I am a gentleman! A gentleman, I say!

There's probably a figure for that.

And a lewd one too

It's an exclusive and shipping is gonna be totally outrageous.

She was exclusive. That's why.

no wonder why, damn... and yeah I saw her cheaper in Mandarake(2k cheaper thou), still a lot in my book for a single figure lol

also, how good are B figures in terms of condition? saw this Sayaka but the B status have me doubting
 
Alright, so I'm not a big Miku fan but I just completed my payment for this on Mandarake

Everything about this Miku is great, it's just so different from the regular Miku. The darker green hair, the stockings, the oranges, and the glasses that come with it. Anyone can get a regular Miku fig with aqua hair and standard colours, but this shit is unique af.

Finally got into Kill la Kill, and just ordered the 2 Sega prize figures from mandrake. The 2 Phat figures just don't do it for me, and the GSC Satsuki in Senketsu looks more awesome within the context of the show, but those hair seams and the chance she might be pantyless like the GK makes me want to wait until the figure is actually released even if I have to pay more later. As much as I laughed at Super Saiyan Ryuuko, I don't think that GSC figure is in the cards for me either...

What are the chances of getting a berserk mode Ryuuko figure?
What about Ragyo?
 
I own the Taichi and Yamato ones, and for their smaller size, the detail and colour shading is amazing. I highly recommend the GEM series of them.

I wanted to get them all but the price completely turned me away.

I'll just settle with getting my favorite character.

I like that a lot. Have the original one.

Got an email about the prize ones, but I'm at my limit right now, and with the new 3DS launch coming, I gotta focus.

I highly doubt we'd get Berserk Ryuuko. I can't see that monstrous design translating well into a 3D figure. Ragyo on the other hand has some great designs that could translate really well over to a figure, but I have a hard time seeing a figure of her as well, she just seems a little...too evil.

A is good
B is good
C is good
D means it comes with the previous owner's DNA

I dunno, chrono-kun. This girl is downright pornographic. But I want to understand... what is it that attracts you to this figure?

I'm pretty sure C-grade items usually have something wrong or are missing something. This is usually noted in the right column on AmiAmi.

The colors mostly, and her facial expression(s).

I have no intention of displaying her in her "alternate pose". In fact, I would have gladly purchased her without them, as the cost likely would have been cheaper.

Well, that and I love Misaki Kurehito's artwork, and SkyTube did a great job translating his art to form.
 
I know how you feel...I have been keeping an eye out for Tohka but she hasn't show up yet :\

I need this...

Last month when I was camping the Date A Live page for Yoshino, I saw a Tohka Nendo pop up. B+/B for 4.3k. So she does exist, you just have to be faster than the others who are after her.

Which Comic Aun are we talking about? The girl on the mirror or the "I'm ïn the FBI list now" one?
Mirror.

No offense to those that might be fans of the other one, but the "FBI watch-list" version sickens me. There's lewd and then there's child lewd. I am not a fan of the latter.

Ah, we're fine then. Keep going chrono, if you need any help I'm here, Mirror-chan looks cool.

Alright, I guess that's an acceptable answer. But why does the artwork of all these artists you like always seem to translate into something pornographic?

Thanks for having my back. d(^_^)v

Blame figure manufacturers. :/

As I mentioned earlier, I have an art book on the way from CDJapan with Misaki Kurehito's works, and there's nothing pornographic at all in it. Just a lot of great art. It's just manufacturers seem to focus on the more "lewd" stuff, but I wouldn't be opposed to buying a standard/more SFW figure if one were released. But I guess the more lewd stuff sells.

I'm just teasing him. It's not so much the content that bothers me, but I was never a fan of figures that get to the point of being that explicit. Cast-off is fine, but toys in the vag are something else entirely.
I can understand that, and again, I would buy this figure without those "options". I will never display her like that, and honestly wish there was a cheaper version with just the standard/default pose. However, it seems I either get both poses or none at all, and I really love the standard pose.

It's similar to the Leviathan Swimsuit Ver. a while back. Love the default pose, but not the other. Still went ahead with the purchase, since it wasn't possible to just get the default pose. :/

Standard pose? Aren't they both squatting poses? What's the difference?

When I started collecting figures, I swore off ordering anything lewd, but I ended up preordering this. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?scode=FIGURE-009450

That's actually pretty cute. Sexy without being too lewd. Chrono-kun could learn a thing about taste from you.

:D

You can't call w/o clothing an alternate pose. Alternate state of undress, sure.
Sorry, alternate version probably would have been more accurate.

But yes, the more [even more] lewd "version" [with the pink monster] I have little to no care about. I simply love the clothed option of Matsuri Fuyutsuki, since I find her cute and I like her color scheme. I would have gladly purchased her without the other included variant [which will remain forever in its box].
 
Alternate pose is the one that I'll let my Leviatan stay with when I receive her
in 2016.

If anyone asks I'll just say she's doing a yoga pose.

I was kinda hoping some garage kit might have been made, or in the works for Berserk Ryuuko, but your right it would be a bit tough to translate in 3d. Ragyo on the other hand needs a figure, her evilness is what's so awesome...

Got that pre-ordered myself, almost pre-ordered the first one, but adding sunkissed skin on the repaint made me get her this time.

Yeah. I haven't bought a C-item yet, but some of them say minor things like missing a telephone card - which sounds perfectly fine to me!
