Welp... my order just shipped! It's the biggest one yet and will likely be that way for the forseeable future. Once these arrive it's just 1-2 figures a month for the next 6 months or so.

Model Kits:
- Mega Man, Roll & Blues
- RX-78-2 Gundam

Revoltech:
- Lupin & Jigen

Desktop Real McCoy:
Goku



Sentinel Black Getter is also on its way. Grabbed it for a decent price off of eBay.

Is that the 3.0 RX-78? Been eyeing that one.

 

[BGBW]

The only stands you should be using for your nendos are the suction cups.

This one. It will be my first Gundam kit. Sounds like it won't be overly difficult.

It'll be standing in front of this beauty:

It's an RG which are not usually recommended for beginners. If you want more info on that specific kit then yami4act is your dude. He's into RGs.

Thank you Settin!

Thought they don't work with older nendos that have no holes in their backs?

Thanks, I'll talk to him about it. From what I read before buying the kit, it sounds like it's on the easier end of the RGs.

 

[arue]

I don't use it. If I can wait, then I can wait (RSAL). If I can't, then I can't (EMS).

I'm the impatient type, so I always want my figures ASAP heh.

But EMS is too expensive for me, so I was looking for a cheaper alternative without waiting for more than two weeks.

I have the 3.0. It's glorious. I still need to get around to doing the waterslides, though.

FigureGaf! I call upon your collected wisdom. Behold Cyril Brooklyn, of infinite leg

I've realized I need this sexy figure in my life and Detolf, but the market is now rife with bootlegs - where would you go to obtain sexy Cyril? She's on Amazon.jp for 10k.

Thoughts?

Late to the party on this but, as Baka Zeigeist already mentioned, both Cyril and her partner Iris are great figures. They may cost you a pretty penny but both are definitely worth it in the end!

 

[kewlmyc]

New Maou figure by Hobby Japan and Amakuni is being released tonight. Not my tastes, but she's coming out tonight supposedly. She's exclusive like most of Amakuni's stuff so check out the BiJ and N-Y if you want her.

 

[Bombless]

Always happy to see Cyril and her neverending legs being shown more love. And yes, definitely look at Iris as well, she is gun porn incarnate.

Edit : I'd get that Maou-sama but a few months down. Hopefully she doesn't go up in price.

That Maou is totes adorbz. What insane price are they asking?

It's a Hobby Japan exclusive. Don't they have a preorder window and are made to order?

Don't know, find out tonight I guess.

EDIT: Actually, 12.8k

[MetalDeer]

Saw that Maou figure and I just knew it would probably be too rich for my blood. Then, one thing led to another and I ordered this for cheap from Amazon.

It begins...

 

[CDiggity]

So I should be getting the Tohka and Kurumi Nendos sometime by the end of the month/early March, which begs the question...should I pony up for Yoshino?

 

[Freezasaurus]

Don't know, find out tonight I guess.

How is Amakuni on quality?

They're fine, as long as you don't expect cast-off.

*remembers Amakuni's Sansei Muramasa...*

 

[GuardianE]

*remembers Amakuni's Sansei Muramasa...*

Did you see that Amakuni is offering some sort of compensation for people because of the botched cast off? I don't know what it is, or if it will be available for international orders (probably not), but it's interesting nonetheless.

.....Wasn't that like, two days ago? XD

I did. Hopefully N-Y acts as a "middle-man" so we can get whatever it is.

The pain is as powerful now as it was then.

Good. They're the ones behind the Seven Deadly Sins line, so the cast off problem with Muramasa is odd. I'm getting my Utsu-tsu from them.

Damn, I was hoping she wouldn't be an exclusive. :/

 

[Fatal Futanari]

Hmm. Go for a B/B figure or pay 2,500k more for a unopened one?

 

[Settin]

What figure? It makes a difference

 

[kewlmyc]

Aren't all of Samurai Girls line exclusive?

 

[Fatal Futanari]

Rikka

 

[Freezasaurus]

oh man, gotta keep those horns on to cover up dat nasty seam on her head.

 

[Settin]

Rikka

Go for B/B

 

[chrono01]

Not all of them, but a good portion are.

 

[george_us]

You ain't looking at her seam. Don't lie.

 

[Freezasaurus]

You ain't looking at her seam. Don't lie.

I'm looking at a seam. There are several.

 

[Bombless]

oh man, gotta keep those horns on to cover up dat nasty seam on her head.

Who would want a hornsless Maou-sama anyway!

 

[Fatal Futanari]

I'm looking at a seam. There are several.

You seam to be right.

Go for B/B

Yea, went with that one. Yay for incoming Rikka!

 

[Ohmygoditsjrod]

Can't help but notice the subtle but exquisite hometown on this bow girl.

 

[FrostyCollects]

Dear Nendos, stay SOLD OUT for a few more days for me. Thank you.

*spends $$$ on gaming cards like a sucker*

 

[kewlmyc]

oh man, gotta keep those horns on to cover up dat nasty seam on her head.

It isn't as bad as GSC's Satsuki.

 

[Freezasaurus]

True.

 

[Settin]

I did. Hopefully N-Y acts as a "middle-man" so we can get whatever it is.


The pain is as powerful now as it was then.

I'm not super concerned cuz I'm displaying her front-forward

 

[FrostyCollects]

BTW, do any of you collect any Ikkitousen figures?

 

[Ryuuroden]

12.7k and it's damn exclusive so no discount....

Bought, as planned >.>

 

[Bombless]

BTW, do any of you collect any Ikkitousen figures?

I've wanted to but most of them are old/expensive. So I don't.

 

[Ragingnight]

hyakka girls generally keep their value. Hanzo goes for 15k+, matabei around 10-15k, sanada is like 10-12k.

Jubei tanked after 3 releases. She used to go for 10k. Naoe was worse, she was previously like 10-12k but after 2-3 rerelease shes like 4-6k. Tokugawa Sen is around 10-12k.

The only one that really tanked was gisen.

There are only 6 exclusives with most of them being alts of the original.
1) Hanzo (alt), 2) sanada (alt) 3) maeda 4) jubei bride 5) jubei bride (alt) and 6) Matabei

basically they only tank after how many re-releases

 

[Fatal Futanari]

BTW, do any of you collect any Ikkitousen figures?

I have a few but not as many as I would like to. Sadly, most of the good ones came out when I was in high school so I didn't have enough money to grab much. They are bloody expensive though.

 

[kiunchbb]

Must be from a world where weapons are cheaper than cloths. Kinda explain the designs.
