oh shit

Was it a last minute cancellation or something?

Yeah, the figure had been delayed a month(was early on in my Figma days so I didn't know yet that 90% get delayed)
Forgot about it and a family emergency came up, asked to cancel when it arrived in stock.
Though I only had 1 previous order with them so maybe thats why they didn't cut me some slack.

If the abyssal are British and US Navy,

Spoiler

there will be a massive funereal in the next few episodes. I read nearly all of the ship back story, and only 2 or 3 actually survived.

And

Spoiler

poor Nagato survives the war only to be nuked afterwards

For a pleb like me who doesn't own a Nendo:

How exactly do they work? You get several parts and choose which to display? :0

Here's an example.

In general you have 1 torso, 2 legs, a selection of arms, 1 hairpiece, a couple faceplates and some accessories. In reality it varies with the character. Some are more varied in accessories but less so in parts, others the opposite. This one doesn't really have many accessories but makes up for it by essentially being 3 nendos in one package. There's almost no accessories but the mecha is articulated and opens up to allow a head+torso nendo to go in as pilot.

You generally get as body, 2-3 faceplates, 2-4 arms, 2-4 legs, and 2-4 hands. You also get accessories like weapons and other things to hold to stand with.

Basically you mix and match parts and pieces to make a variety of poses. They're like figmas except don't have articulated joints usually.

They're also amazingly awesome and the best things ever.

pfffffff

btw what did you usually say to AmiAmi when you cancelled stuff? Sounds like you got away with it for a really long time.

Ah, thanks for the picture.

Should probably buy at least one Nendo. Like, a Miku or something. :3

Hahahahaha. I'm the cancellation expert.

I usually spouted something about "unexpected expenses" or something to that effect. Basically, something reasonable and not just a "I don't want it anymore".

I really wish they would adopt a cancellation system like HLJ. Or at least be like Hobbysearch and give you a week to cancel before locking in the pre-order.

Hobby Search is great, let me cancel twice and about 4-5 times have given me two entire week extensions to the payment deadline.

 

[george_us]

I'm so sick of the delays and the bullshit...

Ugh sorry to hear that. I saw that Sideshow was having shipping problems while reading Statue Forum and was wondering if any FigureGAFers got hit. Here's hoping she gets to you in pristine condition.

I told myself that I would only get Kier (Oglavaeil is probably out due to price) but this looks incredible. If this turns out well...God help my wallet.

Looks like you've spent a couple dollars on some figures, there.

 

[meijiko]

I don't know if there's a trick to Amiami cancellations besides just not doing it when the item is in stock. I've used a bunch of different excuses, usually true ones, from unexpected expenses, to delays, to "the new photos of this figure make it look different, I don't want it anymore." I'm actually thinking about doing it again soon with those digimon Takeru/Hikari figures, explaining that I was hoping to collect the set, but since the manufacturer decided to make some characters exclusive, I don't want them anymore. I find if you have a good excuse, you should probably use it, but if you just don't want it anymore, make something up.

What a bargain!

 

[Freezasaurus]

People still want that Morrigan. Because Capcom got everyone's hopes up by announcing a new Morrigan figure.... then promptly crushed those hopes when they announced they'd be making it themselves.

Thanks everyone. I sent them the message, here's hoping all goes well.

That sucks, but it's very weird.

I asked for my first cancellation after only having bought one item from them. Only difference between yours and mine was that the item I asked to cancel was not in stock yet nor where they asking for payment of my order.

I hate that I want one so bad.

Benten got that FOTY from MFC users.
I can totally agree with that.

It's hitting the bomba bins now, but I don't regret spending $250 on it.

If you wish to be despaired by more garage kits, click on this link ;P

 

[Settin]

So, you wanted... Arpeggio of Blue Steel? Basically? Somehwat.

Since they used actual ship names, I wanted actual ship battles with the girls being symbolic of their respective boats.

No he wanted Transformers. Where everyone turns into boats.

I would also accept this.

 

[Busaiku]

How low?

It was at $150 on AmiAmi, but it looks like it's sold out.
$163 at Solaris.

I is jealous >.<


Currently have the Power Girl from Sideshow pre-ordered so I cant wait till it comes out. I think the next one I'm gonna get is the Superman one.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Agree.

Though guess thats asking for a completely different type of show.

I don't know what kind of drugs or dosage I'd have to take to spend $250 on a figure. It's a swell looking piece though.

You know, some of those faces are really off. I'm not too upset about missing those.

Also joining in on the Kan Colle avatars I went looking for Northern Princess images, and omg I nearly died from the cuteness.

 

[Busaiku]

Well, I'm a fan of the incomprehensible mess that is Zone-00.

 

[amishpriest99]

Ah, thanks for the picture.

Should probably buy at least one Nendo. Like, a Miku or something. :3

You buy one...then another...and then you're doomed.

 

[ShadowSoldier89]

guys...I havent bought a figure in like 2 months...

 

[Freezasaurus]

I don't know what kind of drugs or dosage I'd have to take to spend $250 on a figure. It's a swell looking piece though.

Most money I've ever spent on a figure to date was Alter x MegaHouse Villetta Nu. 15k. She's a great figure, but I wouldn't do it again. At least not for a 1/8.

 

[phoenix296]

That's not a bad thing no matter that enablerGAF tells you.

It's easy with sideshow stuff.

Soooooo excited, my Super Robot Red Baron tentative pre-order came through and just shipped. I should have him by Wednesday!

 

[Freezasaurus]

Only because F-L-E-X pay.

 

[Acid08]

Wow, HLJ finally got all their January restock items in. Should have HG ZZ Gundam, HG Zaku 1, MG Master Gundam, and MG Shining Gundam in a couple weeks. Their Private Warehouse option is so good, pay for the items and they can sit there for up to $60 days. Without it they would have come in 3 different shipments and cost way more in shipping. This way I can just bundle them together.

 

[Seductivpancakes]

Thanks, RMI! Got em! I was scared when I didn't see a hand, but it was attached to the weapon.

MH Nendos, hooooo!

Hmm I kind of want those.

 

[Maintenance]

Dear lord, too many ship girl avatars.

We're gonna need more of those:
