What did you buy?
Yeah, I have that Yosuke too. His stand is way too big. Same goes with the Shinjiro prize figure. Makes it a pain to display him.

RAH DX Aina Saharin from Gundam 08th MS Team. She was ~$25 A/B on Ami last night. Plus the Koto Takaya Noriko I grabbed a couple days ago. I guess it's more Mecha Girls than Space Girls.

You only need one Balzac, really. But it's good to have two just in case.
Really? That one has been sitting in AmiAmi's pre-owned section for a couple months. I thought about grabbing her a few times, but just like Marida Cruz, the lack of detail in the flight suit bothers me. But the price is much more reasonable, here. You may have just impulse-bought her since you just watched the series.
I'd seen her on there for a bit, and decided to bite after getting into the series. All just fits into the eventual display I want to make. All of the RAH DX figures I want with the corresponding Gunpla from their series.
Haman with the Quebley and ZZ, Aina with the Ez8 and Gouf Custom, Rain and Allenby with the G suits, Fumina and Aila with the GBF suits, Sochie with the Turn A and Turn X, Sayla with the RX-78-2 etc. Gundam is one franchise I feel no guilt going all out for.

Yeah, I was still pretty new to the hobby when I PO'd her and saw "Neptunia figure must buy" then released it's not that great and knew I made a mistake. Uni doesn't look so bad but just doesn't seem that great while nepgears face just seems completely off. Yeah GSC or any great company I'd love for a full set. I just hope a good nepgear figure will come out one day, she's my favorite character. Didn't even know there was a neptune Nendoriod but ugh at that price.

Manda.
8th MS team is possibly my 2nd favorite Gundam. I can't not hear her name screamed by Shiro when I think about it though.
Also you need Marida and Mineva with the Kshatriya and Unicorn.
Marida is just so expensive for what she is. I do really want to get her eventually though. Haman, Allenby, and Sochie all come first though.

Pft, the only dude figures I want are the Domon and Master Asia SH Figuarts
All the Zeon dudes can screw off.

FAR too much Neptunia swag was only produced for weird limited editions of games or the animation. The Neptune Nendo is quality, as you'd expect, but Neptune isn't my favorite (a little of her goes a long way) and since it was super limited it's pricey--in fact Im' surprised it's only about twice the price of a normal one.
I just sated my Neptunia merch lust with a ton of used-but-good-condition artbooks and guides and light novels and stuff from Japan, someone on eBay had a a huge set of like 10 items, half off and I got free shipping too. At least the art is great even if they can't make good 3D merch.
I do hope CH/IF start handling that stuff better, and IFI starts localizing merch too. It's really frustrating that almost all merch is limited edition contents so far. (and frankly the US LEs haven't been great anyway)

My BBTS order arrived today, as did my lost USPS package, so I have not one but two Jubilees. Amazon processed my refund so I guess I'll have to get on the phone and arrange to send this one back.
I really like the way BBTS packaged my figure. Going to be using them a lot more in the future.

Looks pretty but not 20k pretty.

oh, no... I'd never pay 20k for a MegaHouse figure. Or any....figure.....
About that racing Miku...
Don't you own Hot Toys?
Freezasaurus
Member
Miku ain't a figure, brah. She's an idol.
Nope. I'm not really into the articulated figures. I'm waiting for a Sideshow PF or Comiquette I want to pop up, tho. But those are statues, not figures....

Sorry, I meant Slideshow. Those are super expensive.

Same difference. Hot Toys are under the Sideshow branding, too.

So since I got the replacement issue sorted out I decided to actually unboxed Ryuko.
Classic butt and boobs stance.
Who needs the Phat one.
and just for the sake of stupidity and lewdness.

Man I suck at posing figures. Never sure what to do with mine.

Same, I always do common/normal poses.

It does take a bit to get used to. I just follow the pics I see on the box or just cool stuff I see online. I spent a lot of time posing Gunpla in my past so I've gotton used to it. I'm not even happy with these but they were quick.

I tend to go with confident faces and action poses. But usually nothing too much more than facing forward, brandishing, if any, whatever weapon they have.
What are the chances of old SNES game figurines?
Like a LUFIA2 Selan figurine to be specific?
No chance, until consumer 3D printing becomes easier to work with.
Cool character design though.

Once I saw a girl in a video making poses with a Pokemon figure, she did one that I couldn't help but laugh, it was that "Are you not entertained?" from Gladiator.

What? I have Uni and Nepgear. While Nepgear's face is a little off, both figures are fine. I was surprised by how well they looked actually.

Absolute zero man, unless there's a new surge of popularity for it.
I know I just would really like one. Probably more chance of trying to 3D print it myself in about 10 years.

I wonder if there will be any copyright claims on this in the future, but I suppose that would only come into effect of they're sold for profit.

So I made a thing.
It was super quick made on my phone and this is the first time I've made anything like this.

Surprisingly good for the first time! I have a little experience in stop motion and it's such a tedious art. If you plan on doing more of these in the future, consider getting something got hold your camera in a stationary position.
