I'll have you know that figure collecting involves a lot more than just bing-bongs and floobers.

That's what all them parts are for. I've been really impressed at the stuff that comes with some of them. The God Eater 2 girls and Jean d'Arc had lots of weapon and hand options with a lot of potential. I just picked my fav weapons and a standard pose.
I can talk boringly about Darkness for a few hours if you think it would help

Oh well, at least I tried.
EDIT: I got the mail notice for my Kirito and I just noticed that for the first time in ages they didn't overtax me. Wow.

Einbroch sees through ryos ruse
Those are eufanisms aren't they? So what is most important in figure collecting?
Showing off how much money you can waste to other nerds.

I have a feeling I'm writing the longest MFC loot post in its history..... I might not get done until a few hours from now T_T

At that point, I think a hobby becomes too much effort.

Good luck.
Feeling good. If you start hating yourself (because of wrong decisions, spending too much money, etc) then it is time to quit.
I quit WoW because it became a second job, not the game that i used to escape to.

Looking forward to it!

Yeah sharing is fun. I should make a youtube video of my stuff sometime. I was thinking of doing quick reviews or something, I already have a youtube audience (for games though)

Thanks! I'll post it as soon as it's ready, though im sure it'll take quite the bit to read lol
Do you have a webcam? You really should open all those cards on a stream so we can watch lol. Just point the camera at the table or something if you don't want to show your face. Streaming is really easy to set up (at least on hitbox)!

Can't wait!
Understandable. Although I do say that it should not keep you from participating in our community. We have many different kinds of folks here. Some lewder than others, and some who are still pure. We are constantly tweaking and working on the level of appropriate lewdness in here, but we do understand that we may take it too far at times. We don't do it on purpose, it just that people's lewd level meter may be different from others. So when things get a little too weird in here, would rather someone try to derail the lewd train but posting a normal/cute figure, Sideshow statue, or bring up another topic to talk about rather than leave and feel unwelcomed. Because everyone is welcome in FigureGAF!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").
maybe not ambiibros /jk

I should give stop motion with figmas/action figures a try again.
Hahaha, that's great.

Hey Kewl, you're getting the James Jean TMNT statues, yeah? BigBadToyStore finally put Donatello up. All 4 turtle pre-orders are go.
As someone who mostly lurks, I have a view similar to this one about the discussions. I'm pretty sure that as male figures get more popular there will be jokes about atom-crushing abs etc. in similar ways that Angela's Balzac rear took FigureGAF by storm.

Always impressed by these. Surprised what you can do with limited parts
I wouldn't mind more male figs, someone needs to like, make more male figs though first

I wanted more male Monster Hunter figures for a while now...
There are a few out there, but not as much as I would like.

Native is doing an Aoba (from DRAMAtical Murder) figure.
I mainly post a few things on my MFC blog so that I can get back to them easily. Like, they are compilation posts of stuff I mostly posted on here, too, but sometimes over multiple posts, so it got tiring to be going back and searching for and relinking individual posts.
A lot of people use the MFC blogs for "ask MFC" stuff and those kinds of posts usually get a lot of replies but I don't really need to since this thread exists.
Nope. Too rich for my blood, plus they weren't a huge part of my childhood at all. Only seen the first movie. That's it.
If I strike it rich, then sure.

blasphemous lies.
Been playing Mechwarrior online, I kind of want some battlemech figure.
Hope you're saving it in a word document or something in case the browser crashes.

I don't post much on here either, not because of the lewdness, come one I have the Sasaki Native figure, but because of the anime talk. I don't watch anime much at all so I don't have anything to contribute.
Would love to see a nendo of this
Face is completely covered through, so not sure if GSC is into that much beside maybe some popular like Darth Vader or superhero stuff.
But hey a figma or such could do also, but I kind of want to see chibi dios charge blader.
Did you preorder?
I can understand that, but it's easy to see where the overlap would be. I'll personally cut it out if it makes people feel uncomfortable.

Yeah, once I realized she was up for pre-order (i.e. I was done freaking out over the existence of a Princess Asseylum from Kotobukiya).
If she was exclusive, she would have been 16k easy.
I think anime and figures are a bit too integrated to separate the anime talk out of the equation. Too many of these things have their origins in anime for that.
