Zero Suit Samus is back on mandarake. 10k though, they crazy.

That's only $84US.
I think I paid $125 for new off Amazon a couple years ago.

 

[DeathByBacklog]

My first (scaled) fig preorder, waiting for it to be ready to shipppp

Anyone have any experience preordering figures from Jlist? I wouldn't normally order from them with their massive markup, but I had some affiliate credit... I hope they don't take as long as Crunchyroll to get their preorders out >_<

I have no idea what the source material is for this...but it looks AWESOME.

You paid too much. I think this one is that expensive because it's unopened, but they've turned up on mandarake for ~8k recently.

There's a hachikuji in the amiami preowned, but I'm broke. I should just stay out of this thread for a few weeks. Next month is going to be tight with the n3DS coming out too.

Oh man, I'm going to enjoy this.....

He's from a boy-love game called DRAMAtical Murder.

 

[Meyneth]

Eyeup Kamina was in the amiami update. He was missing his glasses though, so I couldn't buy..

I paid 7,6k on my Samus, brand new from AmiAmi. It happened last year IIRC, november or december. She appeared out of nowhere and I was like "wow, I need this now"

Probably, but I was a little impatient and she's worth it imo.
I've saved a ton of money elsewhere by getting into select Kotos early ( except for Catwoman GODDAMNIT ) so it evens out.

 

[chrono01]

asuka from alter apparently has neck QC issues. I wonder if the re-release fixes that...

I'm guessing yes.

Hopefully anyway.

Just picked up the Amakuni/HobbyJapan Shimakaze scale for 6500. B quality. My patience paid off.

Nice pickup, she's great!

 

[DeathByBacklog]

New guy opening up Pandora's Box?

 

[johnsmith]

yes again, since I didn't get one

1/8
July
8k+tax

Is this somebody's grandma or something? The original girls are so lame compared to the recent cinderella girls figures.

 

[dakkumauji]

Eh, only thing that was tempting to me on this big AmiAmi preowned update was a 1.4k Yuki Nagato Nendo but eh.

There's also a 2.4k Shizue Nendo that looks nice but thankfully never played Animal Crossing 3DS to be tempted.

 

[chrono01]

New guy opening up Pandora's Box?

I think it has to do with the source material being BL-related. >_<

yeah I can understand that, but I'm trying to tell myself that patience is a virtue in this hobby. I think I can afford to pass on this for now. It'll come back around, or not. It's not a must-have fig for me, but it's one that has been on my radar for a while.

 

[Maintenance]

Is this somebody's grandma or something?

I would let her bake me cookies and tell stories of her childhood.


On topic: nothing for me on this update, thank god. My heart raced when I saw an email but it was the wrong figure, goddamnit. Almost bought the Isabelle Nendo, but the missing items are a no-go for me.

Finally someone getting Aoba in here!

Never ordered from Jlist so I can't help you there.

 

[dakkumauji]

I forgot that Aoba was getting rereleased.

Too expensive for meeeeee

 

[chrono01]

JList is SUPER slow with shipping, at least with my past experiences.

In fact, I ordered a PC game from them on the 2nd, it arrived "in-stock" on the 5th/6th, and still hasn't shipped. I received an email last night saying that it's supposed to be sent out within the next 24 hours, but still nothing.

Ultimate Madoka sold for 13k

 

[Einbroch]

*walks in and introduces himself*

Hello FigureGaf! I use to collect, alot. Now I've past that on to my oldest son and live vicariously through his collection (most of which I get for him). Just checking things out and seeing what people collect.

After a large purge my collection consists of...

Palisades Muppet figures and playsets.

Sideshow Muppet busts.

GI Joe Sigma 6 8" figure sets. 1 complete set packaged(including variants and package variants), 1 complete set opened (including variants). And a bunch of extras.

Oh and series 1 and 2 of Funko Pop Game of Thrones figures (resisting the urge to catch up on those).

So um...Hey!

hehehehehehe

got ya

 

[Acid08]

Ultimate Madoka sold for 13k

Saw that on there, was already sold out already when I saw it haha

Isabelle Nendo is tempting but it's missing the music notes so nah.

 

[johnsmith]

The mario party amiibos are already sold out on amiami (except for mario).

 

[Acid08]

oh crap Sochie Heim is on there

I WILL RESIST

 

[omlet]

The cutest nendo in the world can be yours for 2.5k.

Nice pickup, she's great!

Now to just wait for Amatsukaze...

Ultimate Madoka sold for 13k

I've got a figinstock alert for her just to keep an eye on it (since I got mine cleaned up I don't need to try to buy a replacement but I kept the alert just out of curiosity). She has been popping up frequently and selling instantly. She was there for all of two minutes tonight, or maybe less than that.

 

[Bombless]

If you happen to have figma Saber 2.0 on the way to you, here's a warning from GSC about her. There's some plastic stuffed under her back to protect the paint. You're supposed to just pull the plastic downwards to remove it. Do not try to dissassemble her to do so (which is the first thing i would had done tbh). It's not supposed to be and you will damage the figure.

 

[DeathByBacklog]

hehehehehehe

got ya

Testing my willpower.

Actually if had the room to display things, I'd likely be more in the buying market. As is, the above noted collections are all sitting in storage, which then makes we question why I still have those. But...it'd be more work then it's worth getting rid of them to be honest. That's a whole lotta plastic and poly-stone to be dumping on ebay.

Did you create a support ticket thing? I had ordered that limited edition Steins Gate along with some sailor moon stuff. They shipped the sailor moon stuff just fine, but completely forgot Steins Gate. I sent up a ticket and they mailed it the next day. :/

SEXY SEXY GRANDMA TIME

Saw that on there, was already sold out already when I saw it haha

I saw your Rain figure on there for 2.7k... How much did you pay for her?

 

[RMI]

10k belphegor fffffffffffff. too lewd for me but damn it is tempting.

 

[kewlmyc]

Browsed 10 pages of preowned figures and didn't want any of them. Not even a little. Feels great man.

 

[Acid08]

I saw your Rain figure on there for 2.7k... How much did you pay for her?

Yeah I saw it on there too, probably in better condition than mine too. Paid $50 shipped. Fuuuuuuuuck meeeee.

 

[Bombless]

10k belphegor fffffffffffff. too lewd for me but damn it is tempting.

There's nothing lewd about Belphegor. Stop hating on the GOAT

 

[omlet]

Don't forget Shinobu

10k Koto Shinobu http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-007014

So much lewd.

There's a Stella for 9k on there, too, if you want lewd. I'm not gonna imbed that picture, though!

[Dandy Crocodile]

I had figma Haruhi and Mikuru in my cart and by the time I got to checkout they had both been swiped from under my feet.
I guess my figma SOS Brigade will have to remain incomplete for a while longer.

 

[Seductivpancakes]

Man, I want that Eas figure. I never saw the anime, but she looks fantastic. But 10k? ugh.

 

[RMI]

not hating, it's just too lewd for me. it's a beautiful figure, i just know that it won't fly at all in my household.

 

[Freezasaurus]

It's kind of amazing how cheap they let some of the old MegaHouse Gundam scales go for.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

I must resist, but so much life in this figure.

EDIT: All right, found something that will make me forget this figure - prone to leaning due to that shitty one leg pose.

 

[Acid08]

Except for Haman. I only see her at 10k+. Allenby is pretty expensive too, usually around 7k.

I did. They replied saying that they were backed up due to a large number of orders, and I can understand that.

However, taking two weeks to ship an item? That's a bit excessive in my mind.

 

[Fatal Futanari]

*looks at Amiami preowned update*

I must remain strong. I must remain strong. I must remain strong. I must remain strong. I must remain strong. I must remain strong. I must remain strong. I must remain strong.

unless prev owners have said that on MFC or something then there is no need to worry.

Leaning from big figure names is a thing of the past. The only thing now is peg breaking due to bad support and material.

Its the only reason why I didn't preorder that elin from flare (small base, top heavy)

This one seems fine, but unless it has a past history of leaning then yeah.

Miku racing 2013 is on one leg, and so is misty from alter, and they are fine.

Yeah, the tiny base on that Elin made me uneasy too. Kept me away from ordering.

 

[Ryuuroden]

Ordered the 5.4k naoe, I was planning on getting more of that line anyways and can't ignore a B/B figure.

My problem is that I have heat as a nuisance here, so even though it might be safe in some places, I would not risk getting it.

hyakka is a good choice.

The only series I have wanted to completed is hyakka samurai girls, strike witches, bakemono and black rock shooter.

O and I guess deadly sin as well lol

Is it normal procedure to simply pull the plastic on most figs? I've always disassembled mine. The few times I tried just pulling the plastic always left little plastic bits under the joints that I ended up having to disassemble to remove.

Already own everything I want that is reasonable priced that hasn't been released yet. Alter Yoko will always be a pipe dream along with Alter Elizabeth.
