Yeah something that loses a great deal of it's value once driven off the lot. Hah. One thing about this hobby is I could sell everything I have back and not have lost that much money. Not that I'd want to.

My sister and mom knows about my figures. Dad, IRL friends and FBs do not.
It shall stay this way.

my mom doesnt really give a shit what i do, though she did say she was proud of me when i bought a house
and my dad bought my first 6 play arts advent children figures as christmas gifts. If he were still around I could surely convince him to get me more
ouch...mine are on display in obvious places and I will grab them to show to friends

My dad told me to buy the Vertex Selvaria and he wants a Yoshi amiibo.

My mom thinks they're a waste of money but she says that about literally any spending that I do, haha.
My dad collects figures on occasion too but his are more of the Spawn, Gears of War, or Halo variety.

They don't make Happy Meal toys like they used to. The Tiny Toon cars and the Fry Guy figures were the best McDonald's has ever done.

Given I currently live with my parents (Yay college debt!), they are fully aware of them. They like to joke from time to time haha, but I have a GF (who is also cool with them) so they don't make those kinda of jokes.
pretty cute
It'll probably go on sale tonight. No need to announce a re-release.

after watching date a live, I have no interest in yoshino, but i am tempted to buy one just because her value will most likely go back up again...but im no scalper
From the bad things I've heard about that show I'll probably never watch it. She just looks great.
She's showing more skin than Beelzebub, bub.

Smang those are some nice pics, what kind of light did you use to get those bluish hues?
Goals.
Except that my friends collect too, my parents know but they really haven't said anything about it. Only thing I have to worry about is the next time I get serious with a girl and bring her over. I've only been collecting for about 8 months now, bought my first figs AX of 2013. Ex GF approved so I was given the green light, didn't plunge deeper until last summer.
I currently have Vittsjo shelves in a closest that had its doors removed before I had lived here, my solution? Going to make a curtain closet door to not scare off future gfs.
I'll gladly publicly display Femto and Guts though
I DONT GIVE A DAMN! They are immaculate.

Pre-orders open March 5th. Yessssssss.
I really love this figure. Such a simple design, but so elegant.

There are other Gundam girls that I would rather get a nice figure. Not to sure on Sayla. Although she would look nice displayed with the 1/35 Core Fighter.
She does look really good. HMMMMMM.
I wish the GBF girls were larger scale. Also I think the China and Rinko figures look kinda bad. Aila looks nice though, considering adding her onto my March order.

I still need to get a Ramba Ral off Manda since those Anime-Island cunts fucked me over on one.
I'm so happy to see Yoshino getting re-release.
I don't have any of the other Date A Live characters, but I'm thinking I might grab Yoshino since:
1) She's adorable
2) She's one of those "in-demand" Nendoroid
I'd hate to pass on her only to want her later and not be able to find her for a reasonable price.

I like the Rinko one but wish it was 1/8.
I just want nice scales of these 2 girls.
But I know that will probably never happen.

They'll usually cut the price a bit. But they'll stock both the original and the reissue. I know I've seen them do this several times with other figures (MegaHouse Shirahoshi, Alter Yagyu Jubei, etc.) and they'll just have each one available at a different price. Some people just want the figures, others NEEEEED that original release.

I just looked on Crunchyroll to see when they're shipping out Phat Satsuki.
I pre-ordered this thing back in July, I was expecting it to be shipped in February, and now it's pushed all the way back to the end of April. I have to wait nearly a whole fucking year just to get this figure. I'm Never pre-ordering through Crunchyroll again, I know that American shops get their stock later but this is just unacceptable.

My mom seems to tolerate it, or in general thinks that it's fine (other than having too many, which I can sort of agree with lol), but she really didn't like Asmodeus b/c of how big her boobs were, or DC Amazon b/c how revealing her "outfit" is. *shrug*
Fortunately, I'm old enough not to live and die by what my parents think.

Might have something to do with the port strikes? Not sure how they're affecting American retailers.
Still though, that's awful. She's still available new on Ami.

That's good because I am very close to buying a Chinese bootleg of yoshino, along with ahri.

Think I would be able to ask for a refund on Crunchyroll? I would probably be paying the same price with shipping through Amiami anyway.
I have no idea how they operate with that stuff but it's worth a shot at least.
