Can someone save me the trouble of searching back through one or two threads, and post a link to a good brush for cleaning hard to reach spots on figures? I think Johnsmith maybe posted the link last time.

I noticed some dust accumulating on nuclear fusion rin in some hard to reach spots.

I need to know ASAP so I know whether I can buy more figures or not.

I use it and it's great. That and a microfiber cloth work wonders.

Does the brush have a limited lifespan or is it infinitely reusable? Does it get to a point where it swallowed too much dust and you have to toss it? Am I asking silly questions?

Man, MegaHouse needs to make Kycilia next after they release Sayla.

Yes, you are. I haven't had to switch the brush out, it's not that thick for dust to get trapped in it. Also it's not like your cleaning out your attic with it, your figures shouldn't be covered in an inch of dust.

I do remember the bootleg fiasco, and how fucked up that was, and that tons of people have had issues and problems with them.

For me it's the story of "they have stuff I want at a price I'm willing to pay, if it's in stock I always get it unlike Mandarake, if I pay for EMS it shows up in 3 days, they mark down all packages no matter how big, and I've never had to pay customs tax on a single item I've ordered from them..."

Which were all strong points, but this wishy washy half assed answer shit it bugging the hell out of me, having to bicker with them bugs me more.

This sounds so familiar. I'm sorry you have to deal with their CS. The only way I could get them to budge is by contacting Good Smile to prove to them that my Snow Miku was a bootleg.

Yasuna & Sonia finally released. YESSSSSSS!
Edit : Amish, how do you like having the back of your shelves mirrored? I was thinking of maybe doing that in my Besta shelves.

That's messed up. I'm going to try and remember to deal with BiJ exclusively after my current N-Y pre-orders have been fulfilled.

Seeing more usual bad experiences with N-Y is making me glad I was hesitant on ordering a prize figure from them.

I rather keep stalking the Mandarake and Amiami updates instead of dealing with them. ~_~

I will keep using N-Y for expensive exclusives as long as they will continue to be the only store that guarantees no customs fees.

Do nendos need to be replaced every one to two years?
Click to expand...

don't get me wrong, i'm not defending the ridiculous watch price or saying that nendos are too expensive. just joking around. IMO the correct price to pay for a watch is $0, because outside of specific situations (e.g. diving or something) there are few reasons to have a time-piece strapped to your wrist.

I own a nice watch, but I only wear it for important business meetings. I already have to wear a tie everyday, no way am I bothering with a watch as well

I would imagine some people would pay to have a figure strapped to your wrist.

It's different, but I think I like it. It does let you see more of figures than you otherwise would, I suppose.

My Rialia finally arrived along with Jubilee. Will unbox them later tonight. Also my Yosuke and Yu arrived in LA. Should have them by the end of the week. It's a good way to start the week.

Yeah, well I'm done with them myself, after reading and re-reading all the fuck ton of issues everyone else had/is having/etc, and browsing the cheapassgaffer thread I can't give them any more of my money or business.To me it'll send the wrong signal, and the only way to get across my dissatisfaction is to say nothing more and ignore their payment request for the items I pre-ordered and move them elsewhere.

Wo-class is still up at Amazon.jp (which I can cancel if amiami opens her back up), and GSC Mikasa (not the DX I started with, but I probably didn't have the space for her big ass base anyway) is still on amiami so both re-pre-ordered. I'm gonna have to hunt for Iscandar but as with all the Yamato space girls she shouldn't be that hard to get and I'd rather pay more elsewhere or in the after market then deal with NY ever again.
