I just preordered the Dojima one...along with the Lucina figma & two KH keychains.
May get Izanagi, Nanako & Yu as well...
Never underestimate Aniplex with the Madoka License. That's basically all they sell in that shop. Once Kyoko and Sayaka are released I'm going to expect Devil Homura and Ultimate Madoka to appear eventually. I wouldn't be surprised if a Nagisa or Hitomi appear either...
Heads up! They cancelled one of my pre-orders without any problem. Thanks again!

Wasn't there a set # of issues they were planning? How close are they getting to that?

Kinda regret not jumping on that one. Looks great!
60 issue run, last one released was 45. Should end sometime in 2016.

We're getting Towel Mami. I absolutely know what you're talking about.

Wheee... decided to go with the rest of the fam to join Dojima so I grabbed Nanako, Yu and Izanagi pinched keychains and added them to my Dojima order.
So my orders for April and May at Amiami are (hopefully) done...

Earlier I had asked if anyone had ever seen the order status of "Pre-order in queue" on AmiAmi, because that's what my February order was showing. Well a few minutes ago I got an email saying "Good news, we were able to secure your order." and now it's simply listed as a normal Pre-order.
So it seems to imply that if you see "Pre-order in queue" then one or more of your pre-ordered item's availability may be in question.
I wonder which item it was, none of them seem ultra limited...

If you notice, pre-order items say:
It seems pretty rare, but this is probably what that was.
Oh my goodness these are so damn cute!! I need a Koromaru one damnit!

That seems to be it. Yasuna and Sonya were probably the culprits. They're no longer available for pre-order, and interestingly enough, they have a slightly different disclaimer than all of the other figures.
IA would have been the only other possibility, but I doubt there were problems with her.

So AmiAmi is already asking for payment for that back order Psylocke that I ordered today. I guess they refill their stock quickly.

Not as bad knowing that someone from FigureGAF got her
Age of Ultron Cap preview :

So bought.

I really don't see the point of releasing the same figure all over again for every movie. Most of the suit doesn't really change apart from some clothing here and there.
I couldn't agree more, but as I don't have any Cap at all for the moment I'm glad this one looks perfect to me (the WInter Soldier version doesn't), for it's a "one and done" kinda thing.
Can't say the same about Iron Man mkLXIII, unfortunately :/
Iron Man I can understand, most suits are different and there's the whole hall of armour thing. If I had unlimited funds/space I'd definitely collect them haha
Still two weeks until WonFest...I'm still hoping for a Ragyo-sama announcement.
Well I would too
But I don't so I have to choose one "perfect" IM, and mkLXIII sure isn't
What's to expect of a C/C used item on amiami ? There's a dirt cheap Mikasa Nendo in that condition...

So bought...
They wouldn't make 'em if they didn't sell, and personally I've hated the way Cap looked in every movie so far, this is the first one that's good enough for me to pick up...

Yeah, that's so annoying. That's why I kinda like being able to pay taxes up front at amazon.co.jp and certain eBay items without the silly customs charges.
Theoretically I can be hit by customs if the value of the package (+shipping!) is over 22 euros.
Tax is 21% = 4.61
Customs fee = 13 (or 17.50 if EMS)
You can see how cheap items can suddenly become a bad deal.
And then there's an extra tax (5%?) if the value is over 150

Great stuff. I've been tempted by her, but I settled for the Medicchu. I've been getting the KanColle Medicchus and Cinderella Girls Minicchus. Kirari Dekacchu tempts me.
Still not as big as Jumbo Nendoroid Miku...

I love that pic every time I see it, almost enough to make me find myself a Kirari... but she's not in the CG top tier for me, so I must stay strong!

Seeing the Dekacchu and Medicchu comparison reminds me of working in 3dsMax where you just rescale the model to a bigger size lol.
Now I'm tempted to keep an eye out for a preowned Dekacchu Wo in the future.
Wonder how much time I have. I guess I have the money now
You going to get her, Omlet? I think shes safe enough. This is one of the few instances I am not turned off by the big boobs.

God I wish the Figma was that costume.
Who cares about another Ryuuko version, I WANT RAGYO-SAMA!

As long as she's got rainbow light up hair, I'm right there with you!
I'd buy a freaking nendo if that was all they made, but having jack shit sucks....
Almost a worse travesty then the lack of Claymore and Bebop figures...

=) just don't do it too often that you become paranoid at being banned ala Freezasaurus XP
As early as possible will be my guess, as they can lower their shipment order from the manufacturers.
Only with Bravely Second Collector's Box =(

New information released for Fate/Stay Night TYPE MOON 10th Anniversary Saber
Interesting news have been released for Fate/Stay Night TYPE MOON 10th Anniversary Saber figure. With the announcement of manufactures being Aniplex in cooperation with Stronger, it has been revealed that the figure will be presented as painted prototype at upcoming Wonder Festival 2015 Winter (February 8th, 2015) for the first time.
Additional details about the figure have been revealed as well; Saber 10th Royal Dress ver. is sculpted by Hiroshi (Sakurazensen) in an already known 1/7 scale, and stands 25 cm tall.
Aniplex confirms the probably limited/exclusive distribution of the figure, of which reservation will start on February 8th, 2015. Along with the above information, official photos of unpainted prototype have been released as well and are available below.
For those curious on the Amiami listing of a KanColle prize figure with no pic, I believe this one is it.
This one there doesn't seem to be a pic yet.
If you are tempted here's the link to buy online but all in Japanese so no idea if it only ships there etc:

Is that bravely second figure for Japan's collectors only? Has it been confirmed for NA or EU?

Hopefully it comes over. Looks a ton better than the disaster that was the last Agnes figure.

English localization isn't confirmed yet... so....
Damn. My wallet will cry
Yeah. They even mentioned it on their email. Gotta think it over which figures are 100% buy.
Don't worry, after a while it stops feeling any pain. It just goes numb. Forever.
So I'm new to this hobby, but I was thinking to myself that the smell the figures in my (small) office give off was nice. I looked it up and found all kinds of different information on PVC and how dangerous it is. I understand that PVC is in all kinds of things that we come into contact throughout our day but is anyone here worried about breathing in the concentrated fumes from all the figures being stored in one place? Maybe if you have your figures in a larger, more open room you wouldn't notice it but in my small office I notice it almost immediately upon entering. Not to mention that some of us are into the action figures more than the models/statues, so we'll be touching them a lot more.
Is PVC really that dangerous to touch? What about the fumes?
