Figure GAF |OT4| Witty Title Delayed

I'm sure the magazine had many interesting articles in it.
It was a forced EMS shipping and I had Nendoroid Rin Append, Nendo Len Append, and Lelouch Prize Figure. I think Lelouch's box is pretty big, since I never had a forced EMS order before with only 3 figures.
The total was 9630 + 5120 shipping = 14,750.

That's awesome. Must be the training stage.
of course, we only buy those magazines for the articles.
If it's forced EMS then I could see shipping being that expensive. EMS cost anywhere from 2k for one figure to near 9k for multiple figures when I buy from AmiAmi. I never heard them have to recalculate due to an error, so that's a new one, but the shipping price doesn't shock me at all. Email them about it just in case if you're weary about it. They'll respond next business day.

Curious if Nanami's going to get delayed again this month, without her I'm at about 18k Yen IIRC with the Atelier Ayesha and Zestiria Alisha figures which I'm assuming won't get pushed back.
I found this sweet display case at Ikea hidden in the kids section.

Got a few things in the mail today.
First up is the Bombshells Supergirl
Lastly is Kiani. I've actually had her since she came out in 2007, but the old one's foot got broke from falling off the base. I emailed Aspen if they had any figures they could sell me, they didn't, instead they gave me a 50% off code to get a new one, I took it and used it while they had they're sale last week.
I won't be displaying Kiani till I move to a different place because of the floatiness of the place I live in now, don't want another broken foot.

I'm selling the old one on ebay if anyone needs a base.
So my shipping cost looks normal huh? I was thinking that it's should be cheaper because it's only 3 boxes, hence the shipping recalculation. If it's a normal shipping cost for a forced EMS shipping, I'm not worried then.
This wallet slayer post brought to you by MFC's Lists feature, another great asset for recording the Great Wallet onslaught tracking your expenses.
March orders. Somehow, I remembererd it being worse than it actually is. If Phat! only so much as hints towards delays on Takao and Yasuna/Sonya I'm...I'm....I'm going to go cry in a corner. Cost : 33k before shipping.
April orders. Less pieces, almost double the cost. Still, I regret absolutely nothing. Yamato Heavy Arms, Wo and Himeji in the same month...I implore you PVC Gods, make them release on time! Cost : 59k before shipping
May orders. Glorious Selvaria and the deceptively cheap Frame Arms Girl that might end up costing a ton in addons in the long run. Cost : 40k before shipping
Well, I certainly managed to rein in the number of orders. 2015, the year of scaling down my spending!

March ain't so bad for me.
Nice! Hopefully she actually releases this month.
Hm, might look into buying this if it doesn't come with the soccer/football sticker.
Doesn't help to email them and check just in case.

Nothing dropping from Sideshow until mid-summer at the earliest, so March orders are my Kotobukiya haul

You have good taste.
and my recent Amiami impulse purchase
got her too. she's looks amazing
Yeah, I'm wanting those too. There are some Snorlax ones from the same line but for some reason they're way more expensive.

Hey Chrono, we've got your next Native figure right here. 
Hey Chrono, we've got your next Native figure right here.
A company that only makes lewd figures is making an Aoba? Oh shit, page DTL.

Super Interesting news.

I am curious as to exactly how lewd they're going to go with it.

And will they go
erect or flaccid.

I imagine it'll look like those mousepads

That would be uncomfortable.
Not sure how I missed this.Hey Chrono, we've got your next Native figure right here.
Great for some, not for me. This is one I can easily pass on!

OMG, it'll be longer than a normal mousepad, and the raised portion will support your arm all the way to the elbow.

Hey Chrono, we've got your next Native figure right here.
Feels like this came out of nowhere but if any character was going to make the jump it'd be Aoba. His Max Factory figure did so well it got a re-release and the franchise itself has been doing well. Though I doubt I'll be buying this, I'm interested in seeing how it fares!
Seriously came out of nowhere! Just, what in the shit.
It's only the start of the year but there've been a few really random figure surprises which while I hoped would become a reality, I never expected them to and yet...they did happen. Power of prayer to say the least!
Hope that this is the start of a brighter future.
Going through Native's catalog on MFC I'm gonna say that they won't be showing penis for the figure. The have a (small) few that are just ero rather than vagina exposing.Hey Chrono, we've got your next Native figure right here.
My bet is on hyper-erotic rather than graphic sexual organs

err all their recent figures have detail down there in the past 2-3 years lol.
Which is a good point, but I feel that we must also consider that male figures in general have a difficult time of being made at all. It's all up to the art they choose I guess. :/
Although for some reason I have a suspicion that there will be a second figure that will compliment aoba in the future
That came out as a half idea...
My point is that whilst I have faith in Native, I don't have faith in Native

That could make things super interesting.
Honestly, as soon as I saw the listing on MFC I immediately thought that if Native is smart about the pose the choose for Aoba they could easily make complimentary figures of all the other characters for him.
Like those two bunny girls that are always posed with one sitting on top of the other. Or the two figures where when posed together look like they're holding hands
