The great Pyramid of Nendo! What a sight.
So I got tired of digging nendo boxes out of boxes out of closet any time I wanted to adjust them. I went to the hardware store today and picked up two of these for $5 each to organize unused parts. Perfect. (Except they can't fit very large accessories like Kaga's kotatsu, Kuroyukihime's umbrella, or Shinku's suitcase.)
I want it, poi. Would buy, poi. It's probably just a GK, isn't it, poi?
Very much worth what little money they cost.

I had that feeling. At least the bullshit amiibo situation means more money for me to burn.

I was kinda paranoid taking that pic lol. Stairs are right behind it.
Hmm might have to do this as well.

It's like looking into the face of God, if God's face were made of PVC.

Brilliant!
...what? Out of the Teen Titans, they've only released Starfire and that was recently. You act as if they've released 12 different figures or something.

Aren't they making like 2-3 more of that? Raven and another ones? I'm sorry for the people that like Teen Titans, I'm not trying to rain on their parade, they are luckier than I am because the figures that they like are getting made, but that doesn't mean that I need to like that.
So after extensive research I've come to the conclusion that I don't want the nendo ship girls
[cue boo-ing]
What I Do want is the nendo petit set for the ship girls (and the abyss girls can be the regular nendoroids).
There only seems to be the one set for the petit ships though, I hope the make all the other girls...

I actually thought about doing that for the gazillion nendoroid/figma accessories I have and will likely get in the future. Glad to see it works!

All? Have you seen some of the pictures floating out there? I think that there are more shipgirls than pokemons already. I know, just kidding, but there are a lot of them.
I'd rather a hoard of petits anyway. Regular nendo bases take up so much space, I try not to use them if I can avoid it.
The petits also make for handy replacement checker/chess pieces
Starfire and Raven. That's it. And people have been begging for them for years yet we're just now getting them. Not like the Tekken or X-men releases where there's a shitton of them.
If you want to get technical, Supergirl was once a Teen Titan but I don't count her since she originated from her own own comic series unlike Starfire and Raven who originated from the Teen Titan comics.

Nice idea there, I liked that. And I understand your feelings, I would have every single pokemon if I could.
All right, I was out of line with the Teen Titans thing, should've said X-Men. But that's water under the bridge now, at least they are keeping their repertoire diverse.
I should probably get around getting something like that for additional pieces of nendoroids (and maybe some figma stuff too) before I get more figures heh. That looks pretty good despite not being able to fit bigger stuff.

I don't know if this counts as a "figure" or a "model kit", but I'm really close to ordering this GK Momo Belia Deviluke. Unpainted, unassembled PVC-ish. Super adorable...
Why not just buy the pvc version?
Figure GKs are welcome here but some of us get hella butthurt when they're posted. I wish I had the airbrush skill to paint flesh tones Q_Q

Because I love airbrushing and assembling kits.
OK, as long as it's not NOT allowed, haha.

No, we'd love to see how it turns out.

Welcome, and please do post GKs, it is funny to see FigureGAF get angry.
I plan on creating some in the near future, but mine will start as clay miniatures, probably Pokemons or something anthropomorphic, like Monokuma or Teddie.

Don't worry, if they don't pick it up I'll try to make one just for you.
Kidding, kinda.
This came in today.
Oooh take pics of RAH Ryuuko pls! Also yay for figma cycles.

Someone should make a garage kit/figure painting thread, would be nice to have a place to ask question and posting progress. Not really sure how many people would interested in it, may be if we can include those warhammer people.
Get it from Gk-model instead, everyone been saying they are superior to E2046.

Only problem is they might not include the eye decals, you will have to e-mail and ask them.
I really don't see the problem with talking about that in here.

Ah welcome Nico! Would be great to see someone in here painting a GK.

I already ordered my stuff from E2046. After I finish these, I'll make a point to order a kit from gk-model and see how I feel about the quality difference.
As for eyes, hand painting anime eyes is CRAZY simple once you've done it a few times. I prefer to do it myself! :3
Yay! Looking forward to your updates on that!
Wow...she looks amazing in person! I was skeptical at first since I haven't seen any decent pics her online. Snagged this one on sale at Amiami.
woah, how much?
Dark Angel Olivia is getting a rerelease

Almost bought her and the Satsuki figures from RAH ages ago, while I was still an infant in FigureGAF, but you guys managed to hold my wallet safe from the almost 40k blast it would receive.
That's beautiful, pity it is in June.

Lots of not-rare, widely-available figures getting rereleases. Hmm.

Congratulations! Now that you talked about it, I don't really have a pipe dream figure anymore, managed to get the one that was closest to that this month (it was a figma of a kinda hated character, but eh, I like him).
Dat feeling when the order of something you really wanted is confirmed. XD

Indescribable, IMO. I raged so hard that day people here thought I was even more insane than what I already am.
Part 1 of 2 of this month's AmiAmi shipment(s) arrived today.
Saotome Maria w/ Bath Tub
Narukami Yuno
Shiroe's Glasses
3DS LL Screen Protector
The box for Saotome Maria is massive. Just look at the photo below, and keep in-mind the box for Narukami Yuno is rather large too. Compare it to Ryuko's box to the left.
It cost me something like 9.5k yen for shipping, which isn't surprising given the size/weight. I had to pay an additional $50 for customs at the door, which is unfortunate since I usually never have to pay anything in Canada. Just seems like one those times. :/
Now to await Kongou, Satsuki, Psychic, and a few Amiibo from my other AmiAmi shipment, which should hopefully be here this week or early next week.

That's a tough one since I'm really partial to three of them Chihaya, Miki, and Azusa. I guess I'll go Chihaya since episode 20 was so amazing.
