Figure GAF |OT4| Witty Title Delayed

Not open for further replies.
Damn, I'm sorry to hear that. :/

Yeah I'll have to hope and wait it's still there when me new card comes in but I doubt it, missed her 2 times already.

Oh no :( It's useful to have 2 credit cards if you can contain your spending, I have a second used only for emergencies and pay 'em both off in full for no interest.

Yeah, Ive tried applying for a second card but due to a screw up that wasn't my fault and that the company refuses to fix it tanked my credit score so applying for a new card often gets me denied. My main card information was somehow stolen so that's why I'm in the process of getting a new card sent out.

I sympathize :/

Thanks. Hopefully it comes in soon. I was told they'll rush it in for today.

So Leviathan - Swimsuit Ver. [Orchid Seed] has been removed from AmiAmi's English portion of their website. Oddly enough, all other Orchid Seed figures are there, so it's not like before where they de-listed all figures from them.

http://slist.amiami.com/top/search/list?inctxt2=2&s_cate2=459&s_maker=OrchidSeed&pagemax=40

It kind of makes me worried, I have her pre-ordered from them. I'm sure they'll fulfill all current pre-orders, but it's still a bit frightening to see. It could just be an error, but she's still available on the Japanese portion of their website.

This is odd. Weren't there rumors about some falling out between AmiAmi and Orchid Seed for whatever reason? I don't recall there being anything that came from it in the end, though.

Arg. Just going to have to build up credit then. I started with less than $1k balance and had to pay it off constantly, 4 years later I have more of a limit than I can reasonably spend in a month. But I pay everything I can through credit card--don't like cash, and credit fraud is soooooo much easier to deal with than debit.

Well they kind of deserve it for buying Funko Pops... oh you meant at us, not by us.

Urg I hate those things. The soulless, beady eyes. I can't decide if owning Borderlands figures is worth the shame of owning Funko Pops.

Haha. I don't mind Funko Pops, I know somebody that likes them and I won't judge.

Knowing most of GAF when it comes to this kind of thing you are right.

Unfortunately I've seen a couple of threads going that way.

Yeah I'll have to hope and wait it's still there when me new card comes in but I doubt it, missed her 2 times already.

Good luck, hopefully you'll find one.

Yeah that's what I've been doing, will have had my credit card account for 2 years next month and never missed a payment and usually always pay off my balance but if I cant I pay it off quickly after. Went from a $300 starter limit to my now $3500 limit so it definitely helps for larger orders that $300 wasn't enough and with the cash back on the card I've gotten about $500 in free cash since I've owned the card so it's definitely nice. Yeah debt's never good. My mother charged many cards when she was much younger and to this day they still hound her occasionally so I know never to let that happen.

This is actually my first order with them but I've heard they're totally legit. They also rank secondhand items kind of like amiami.

Shipping is expensive though. They add a handling fee to the price (they say it's to cover the cost of packing material, okay whatever) and shipping for 2 nendos cost almost 2000 of mai yenz just for RSAL. Still, price of the nendos themselves was better than manda or ami so it worked out fine. I'm not sure why 2 nendos was like 2k for SAL when it's usually like 1300 from manda rake for two nendos.

Man, what's up with HLJ. First the don't get the wallscroll with the first batch so I have to wait 2 months for a reprint (paying 10% more due to exchange rate now), and now they're saying they can't get a box to ship it SAL despite both AA and HS being able...

No one has that After The Party sonico yet? I'm curious as to how it works, if it requires destroying anything like that fig a while ago I definitely wouldn't be doing that. And now that I know it's breakaway I'm thinking maybe I should order it early...the pervy figs seem to sell out the fastest >>

My mom's an accountant so I've been (properly) taught that debt is hell. Not sure how credit score works really, don't know why you'd end up with a $3500 limit but be unable to get a second card...I try not to bother too much about my credit score since I just don't do loans beyond the credit card. Some places are weird about credit though...bought a car in cash, the dealer still insisted on a "hard" credit check...like my credit matters when you're getting cash.

At Sonico's MFC page there is a manual instruction booklet in japanese, the first picture from the "other" section.

I was surprised when I saw that my Junko had a symbol in her underwear.

I got a Sonico in ripped jeans and didn't notice until it arrived that the ENTIRE butt of the jeans are torn out (the online shots didn't show this off well, but there's a massive illustration of her butt on the box). figure makers certainly have attention to detail

Yeah, sometimes the level of detail just astonishes me.

Grabbed a Chitoge prize figure from a seller in the UK to tide me over until the scales start rolling in. At this rate a Nisekoi-packed DETOLF may be on the cards

I got the exact same figure coming.

PriPara Minami Mirei Nendoroid Co-de “Candy Alamode Cyalume Co-de”, “Magical Clown Co-de” by Good Smile Company on preorder
After yesterday’s preview, Good Smile Company officially opens pre-orders today for their “PriPara” Minami Mirei Nendoroid Co-de, in both her Candy Alamode Cyalume Co-de ver. and the Magical Clown Co-de one. Both figures, part of the company’s Nendoroid Co-de collection, are proposed for ¥2222 each, with release date scheduled for July 2015 and are both sculpted by Shichibee in cooperation with Nendoron.

As a reminder, the Nendoroid Co-de collection is a line of Nendoroids composed of four pieces sculpted with fixed poses, which include the head, upper garment, lower garment and shoes. The new series is based on the theme of dressing-up characters, so each part can be swapped between characters. The name “Co-de” comes from the Japanese pronunciation of the word “coordinate”, intended as clothes coordination just like in dress-up games.

With pre-orders placed at Good Smile Company Online Shop, Decoration Stickers are included as special bonus with both Candy Alamode Cyalume Co-de and Magical Clown Co-de “PriPara” Minami Mirei Nendoroid Co-de.

We have already seen a lot of both figures, which Vertex brought to Wonder Festival 2015 [Winter] back at the beginning of last month, and the company also revealed additional official photos for both “Sengoku Bushouki Muramasa” Itou Ittousai and “Shinmai Maou no Keiyakusha” Naruse Mio during the past weeks.

Today we can take a look at those photos, with an official product photo of Itou Ittousai and a pleasing surprise regarding Naruse Mio, which seems to be coming with something that could be an alternate body part so to be able to display her with the top of her uniform opened on her generous chest, revealing a pink and white bra.

At the moment, there isn’t additional information about the figures but, hopefully, Vertex will reveal more about “Sengoku Bushouki Muramasa” Itou Ittousai and “Shinmai Maou no Keiyakusha” Naruse Mio Dwell figures soon.
