Thank you! I technically started with this single Shimakaze model from Amazon but seeing the awesome stuff posted in this thread pushed me to make a real order and since I've gotten games from AmiAmi it seemed like a good place to startI also went with the Griffon line because they seem to have a few Senran Kagura characters and other companies seemed to have only 1 or 2 each.
Quality over quantity, man! Nice on the Shimakaze, though. I should have bit when she was on sale on Amazon.co.jp.

That's deff a fair point, I wanted to go for some consistency by sticking with one company but I guess its a moot point if that one company isn't that great
Yeah I actually picked it up from a Japanese seller on Amazon US and it came out to Ami's price before shipping, with the shipping included so I got it when I saw that.Thank you!

Griffon.
That's not a bootleg. That's a real Griffon figure with the prototype on the left and the real figure on the right.

They do QA for Nintendo, yes. My Shulk came with a "Griffon seal of approval" in the back.
The original seal is this:
But mine was this one:

Congratulations! Thanks for sharing.
Nice loot, the artworks look amazing, and good job getting that poster signed.
I have Hunie Pop too, first time in my life that I wish I were better at Bejeweled.
You just reminded me that I bought that
Its literally the only figurine I ever regretted.

Well, you won't necessarily find consistency within a particular manufacturer's figures because manufacturers usually work with a bunch of different sculptors. There are exceptions, like when a series or line of figures are being produced/announced. But even then, there can be inconsistencies.
I'm waiting for another price drop on Shimakaze myself, but she's on my radar for sure right now.

I like how Solaris japan has a warning on their site about Griffon figures lol
They should do the same with Amiibos.

Thanks! Yeah might get a couple of the artworks framed as they are really nice, and thanks! if I had been told that they weren't taking any more people after waiting all that time I would have been devastated beyond belief, I'm usually unlucky with everything but this time it finally worked out ^_^
lol as impossible as it sounds I've actually never played bejeweled or the many types of games similar to it. So lets hope I'm not terrible at it

Lets hope that my $300+ Kirino figures from griffin that comes out this month comes out how it's prototype looks >_< lol

That's hilarious. A retailer with shitty prices warning about a manufacturer selling shitty products.

Oh I know, this will probably be the only time I ever PO a griffon figure but the thought of a 2 foot Kirino and the small chance she might sell out and be more expensive after release might me PO her. So just have to hope she turns out good enough lol

Nice, congratulations. The set is complete now, right?
Just as I'm about to leave my room to do my laundry (since my main desktop is doing 3D rendering), I received the pre-owned notification email for this guy at AmiAmi:
/quickly run back to my desktop and place order
/order successful 〜(￣▽￣〜
EDIT: Before this, I often encounter this beloved message:
Glad that I managed to secure Flynn but man I can't combined order with next month Sakura and Syaoran figures. I'm trying to not simply spend more money with the increase cost of living in my country after the newly introduced tax system starting this month.
/quickly run back to my desktop and place order
/order successful 〜(￣▽￣〜
Now my Vesperia collection slowly grows bigger. Currently missing out on Raven.

Flynn's one of my favorite figures. Totally worth it. ~_~
------------------------------------------
So I ended up buying that Makoto prize figure I was talking about this morning.
And ordered the two starter decks for Fire Emblem TCG. This is going to start another dangerous path for me.

Yeah, it's a great looking figure. That price though.
I ended up ordering Koto's Hitagi on there though. It's backordered, hopefully it won't be long until they get one.
Yup! Also considering the Madoka scale to complete that set.

So good to have full sets. The only one that I plan on doing that is the horror bishoujos, since I got them from the beginning.

That's good advice thanks, goodluck with the price drop, I noticed that it's still the same price I paid on Amazon which is 85$ shipped so you might wanna check that out if it's what you're looking for.

picked up some figures over the weekend at fan expo here at vancouver. found 'em for very reasonable prices (at or around MSRP) for the most part, actually:
bishoujo batwoman
nendoroid hunter female - lagombi edition (she is adorable!)
nendoroid wind waker link
and just for fun, i had to put the lagombi hunter's worried face on ahri

Lol that's cute.
Also that was fast of Amiami to sent me the invoice for Flynn. Wish I can combine it to next month though.
I have no idea why but I want the Fire Emblem TCG starter decks, but then I think about how poor I am and I realise that's a dumb idea.
I did just get 100GBP from my Aunt/Uncle at Easter for helping them by building my cousin a PC nearly 2 years ago which was a lovely surprise, but I should probably put that towards all my current orders.

You would need one hell of a deltof for that.
I hate waiting in line at cons so I salute your dedication, it was well rewarded!
Great loot list and #HuniePopOwnerHighFive! It's pretty easy early on but the difficulty ramps up slowly but surely.
