Ass we're talking so much about butts, Sinon also likes to show that she has one:

My EMS package disappeared for nine days then suddenly it had a delivery attempt today. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Guess I'll be picking that up tomorrow.

Crazy that EMS seems to have more problems than you'd expect with people. I guess it's just to be expected with international shipping.

Ugh. It happened. :(

GSC Wo-kyuu - Ordered
MF Re-kyuu - Ordered

They sank my wallet and my heart. I held out for a while, and put up a valiant fight. But once Re-kyuu closed in, it was over. I'm still weireded out by her butt-penis, though.

RIP in peace

Ass we're talking so much about butts, Sinon also likes to show that she has one:
I feel like figure makers don't watch SAO. To be fair, I don't feel like the makers of SAO watch SAO.
 
So when they say Re-kyuu is 190mm, is that from the base to the top of her head, or from head to foot? Because those metal supports would add a bit of height if it's the latter.
 
I'm glad I have negative interest in boat girls. You poor souls ;)

Blade Boys future.

-----------------------------------------------------

Speaking of which, the first Blade Boys merchandise went up for preorder on AmiAmi last night. Two packs of badges for the characters, 30 in each set, about 7k total.

And they basically sold out overnight. And they aren't out until April.

Sure, Amiami could have had a terribly low preorder stock, but believe in the hype of blade boys~
 
So, been a while since I last contributed to this thread. I thought if I just ignored it and moved on, I could get things under control.

I'm now two Sideshow collectibles heavy:

Last month's amiami:
(In-stock)ARTFX J - Super Dangan Ronpa 2 Sayonara Zetsubou Gakuen: Nagito Komaeda 1/8 Complete Figure | 7,130.- | 1 | 7,130.-
(In-stock)Portrait.Of.Pirates ONE PIECE NEO-DX Portgas D. Ace 10th LIMITED Ver. 1/8 Complete Figure | 7,700.- | 1 | 7,700.-
(In-stock)Dangan Ronpa The Animation - Kyoko Kirigiri 1/8 Complete Figure | 8,620.- | 1 | 8,620.-

Oh all those figures, only the Wonder Woman is mine. Beware getting your wife into the hobby...

I'll try getting some pictures once I'm home from work.

Oh, month prior did see me get my first Nendoroid for work:

I can never truly escape...

That's really cool, I didn't notice that either.

Although, if I purchased these, I'd like the option to use them as my everyday glasses, which would make the grid-design on them kind of pointless [since I'd need to get the lens exchanged anyway. :/

Yeah that suck but thankfully I don't use glasses anymore. That's why I got interested in them.
 
Pretty sure I've now followed everyone on that list. My Twitter is https://twitter.com/buildknuckle

I'll follow anyone who follows me, so feel free to add me if you want. I would do it myself but I only have access to Twitter via phone for the next few days.

I'm not sure if my Jan order being held up by one figure is a good thing or a bad thing. :

Said figure has no release date yet either.

Yuki Mori pilot suit ver. is holding mine back, MFC said she got bumped to the 2nd of Feb, but Amiami ain't budging so it might be wrong... To me it's a bad thing, I want my damn Batwoman...

What's holding your order back?

Gecco's 1/6 Metal Gear Rising Raiden.

Damn, there is a dude on MFC saying he got his invoice from BIJ on the 18th, and that the release date was the 26th, but that days past... They gotta split the order like tomorrow or saturday right?

Mine are all preorder or waitlisted :(

How many are stuck on a boat though? The Queen of the Dead has released in Asia, but she's stuck on a boat for the rest of the world...

I really apologize about asking a second time here but I just wanted to see if I could get another opinion as to whether I should fight Amiami on their extremely underwhelming solution to my problem. I also have my doubts that anyone would purchase this figure for anything more than 50% of its value, though I may give it a shot anyway.

I contacted Amiami about the Sentinel Iron Man figure and they said the best they can offer me is a 1,500 Yen partial refund (for a figure that cost 15,120 Yen). I think that's ridiculous that they won't allow me to send it back for a full refund. What are your thoughts GAF, I've put a picture of the issue below. Is this a fight worth having?

In case you didn't see the previous post, by design his head does not move independently from the neck. You can see in the picture below that his head was installed off to the side. That means that if I have him looking straight forward his neck (which has a very defined front to it) will be angled to the left by 10-15 degrees. Minor, perhaps, but not something I feel I should be dealing with in a premium figure."

It also has an issue with the metallic paint that was applied to it, which you can see in the post I made this morning.

Hopefully. Weirdest thing is that the manufacturer posted pictures of the statue getting mass produced earlier this month saying "We've finally reached the final stage", but we still have no release date at the end of the month.

None stuck on a boat, thankfully.
I passed on Gethsemoni although I may grab Kier. I'm waitlisted for Power Girl EX and the Michiko She Predator PFs, and my Vampi PF isn't due until this summer.
I've got Koto Juri, Alter Asuka rerelease and the GSC Satsuki preordered through Amiami.

IIRC those marks are from using a circular sander/buffer on the undercoat then applying a metallic paint over it. Point a bright light at most cars and you'll see that. Your best bet is to see what the manufacturer's policy is. A defect like that head alignment is more their problem than AmiAmi.
 
While you buy figures, I buy 350 dollar LEGO sets;

Lego enabling is a go.[/QUOTE]

The only I thing that I miss since I stopped buying Legos are the characters. I wish I could have a wall of "master builders", like in the movie.

After setting up Lucifer yesterday, I decided that she's the only sin I want. I was able to get Satan cancelled on AmiAmi.

However...

I now have orders on GSC Wo-Class and Max Facfory Re-Class. Abyss ships only plz. But no nendos, that will sink me even deeper.

Bunch of cool shit I'm not buying, so post pictures when they come if and when they do, and I spoke to soon. Sideshow just sent me a 2 day notice that they want money for Queen of the Dead on Saturday and that she should be in the warehouse then too.

My wallet just ran out the door whimpering, I have to go catch it and put it back in it's cage....

Doesn't look as awesome as I imagined it too. Still awesome but not super awesome, awesome...

If that makes any sense...

It is okay, I am in the same situation. The abyssal is great figure even if you know nothing about kancolle, but girls carrying boat part just look like shitty cosplay.
