Will unbox for a proper photoshoot, but here are some snaps to tide you over in the meantime!
Luckyyyyy. I managed to snag a late preorder at that Canadian website. But better late than never for nendo Onodera.
really depressing show. Only a few others like NTHT and Saikano are more depressing.

You're insane. :O
Did you at least order Max Factory's Himeji castle?
SPOILER: She's not making April.

Well, it's probably not $1000 worth of shitty Nendos, either.

You ordered that new Sinon? Who makes her?

thats a quality caged beast vibe there
That's why I love Persona 5 companion, cats ftw.
Dammit Freeza, pay attention.
She's made by Aquamarine so she should go along great with my Chaika since the same company made her.
I REALLY like the look of this figure. Such a cool pose/expression.

This figure looks so cute.
She's kinda expensive though, same price as Racing Miku right?
I'm glad the lewd thing was raised. I think I'm a good example of why this was an issue (I didn't tell on you guys, though, I promise it wasn't me).
A while ago I made a post on this and tried to sorta raise my concerns gently, but it kinda didn't go anywhere.
Basically, I'm a guy who's into cool figures, collectibles, I like figmas, and I'm just a general collector of cool things. I'm not especially into any niche things, and while I won't rule out a statue that is asthetically beautiful or in some way "sexy", I don't think I'd ever own anything "lewd".
That's not to say I particularly care if anyone else wants to own things that are "lewd", but the feel in the thread made me feel a bit out of place, with the sheer volume of attention and posts being in some way related to the sexiness of inanimate objects. In particular, there's at least some tolerance of imagery/discussion of statues that depict clearly underage looking characters in a sexual manner -- and while I agree there's some amount of self policing here on this, to the thread's credit, it didn't seem like enough and it kinda made me feel less comfortable participating. I don't think it's productive to single out/shame anyone, but there definitely have been statues displayed and discussed in this thread that, for lack of a better word, are creepy.
anyway, just my two cents. put me on team "more inclusive" (as opposed to "team lewd").

Meh. Why do I need to pay attention to anything having to do with Sinon? I already got the Kotobukiya one aka best version.
I'm with you. My April order is the biggest one I have for the next few months and would prefer it not get too much crazier. With my luck, Alisha and Chiaki will both release in April and push my total up a ton. >>
That's adorable! One day I'll have all the Menmas.

Unfortunately not, I'm not familiar with that character lol

April

Indeed its my favorite Menma. Of course I had to buy it!
Yes. Anime Chaika pls. Manga one just isnt as adorable. I would buy several anime Chaikas.

I own very few figures that could be considered lewd, though the Infinite Stratos 1:4 figures are certainly cutting it close. But, cuties with animal ears. I cannot ignore that!

Well, I don't think any of us are particularly serious about those kinds of discussions. I know they can devolve into excessively lewd drivel, but none of it was ever meant to offend, and was always intended in a joking manner. When we talk about figures being sexy, it has more to do with how well and/or accurately the figure expresses the female form and the personality of the character it represents. It's not a bunch of people sitting around fapping over lumps of PVC, honest.
Most of us will very rarely or never post legit NSFW figures here. We'll probably link to them, but they'll be marked as such. In the case of those half-naked loli figures you're referring to, the discussions that take place concerning them are in regards to how this stuff gets made, or why there's even an audience for that kind of thing. I like some lewd in my figures now and then, but that's in regards to well-sculpted life and hometown. Loli figures that are marketed with a sexual twist are definitely not in my wheelhouse.

I've tried adding " before and after the image links to shrink them as I was told that's how you all make it so the image is small and when you click it gets bigger but it doesn't seem to work for me as I'm assuming thats not how you do it. If anyone could give me the exact way to do it I'd be very grateful.
Theres a 300$ Kirino figure?
You mean LN Chaika and she's designed by Namaniku ATK, so I like her more than the anime one. Namaniku ATK is a god-tier artist.
Wish we'd get a Red Chaika as well, but that's never going to happen.
I assume it's the 1/2.5 "soft bust" version.

Ah, yes, LN.
I would love Red Chaika as well, but that ship has sailed, so I beg for White Chaika. That ship has most likely sailed too, though.

1/2.5? Jeez. Jealous of Miku/etc fans. All my favs are too obscure for giant-ass figures. Well except sonico but 1/2.5 still seems giant

Thanks a ton! I finally know how to do that.

^ Don't remind me, I bought some pokemon cards while on vacation for shits and giggles, I have no idea how good any of the cards are but it's still fun. But I stick to digital no microtransaction ones.
Well one doesn't have a tower blocking the important parts

We shall see come July! (Since I wont get the package until the 1st week of july)
and yeah it's fun and the thrill of finding a rare or special card is exciting.
I, I, I was just looking where those ladies where looking at.
They should make it like a transformer where she completely changes into the castle.
