The Nendo is pretty cute.
Not enough butt.
Eh, I've been loving figmas lately and there are three from that show. Still don't feel the need.
also like 90% of the scales are made by Griffon for some reason.
Nice, am jelly.
Did you order anything? If not, no mistakes, just cravings.

Even if he did, it's not like he paid 25k for an 8 year-old figure off of Manda like some people.
Basically. Though you'll quickly find out that "box damaged" means fucking nothing as all that stuff is basically brand new.

Man, if you buy a B-grade box, you'll think it's brand new. They're so strict about grading that a barely noticeable crease will get something demoted to B or C.
Who and what?
Nah. They have a special tag for that, like (New Item) I believe. A/B just means the person/company they bought it from never opened it. Basically it's great all around.

Me, and this.
GSC Kino. But this is some grail figure stuff right here. I posted pics early in the thread when I got her.

Only thing im not liking about Figma Nagato so far is that she seems really "lanky" compared to others from the same series.

I've seen A/A, but only twice.
Can't handle too much Nendo butt.
Nope, it means they bought it from someone who was pawning off their collection (or some other reseller selling unsold inventory to them to resell) and that person never opened it. If the item is their own stock they will not rank it like preowned but if it is damaged they will list it with a note.
I've gotten new figures from Amiami that would be A/B or A/C condition if they were preowned (new in box, but box was scuffed, nicked, etc.), but they weren't preowned so they don't get ranked. Preowneds ranked A/A are rare but do exist.

Jessica Nigri is voicing Sonico in the English version of SoniAni?
Sounds about right...

She's so full of life though.
But lots of other much more interesting characters are also large breasted.
Nahhhhhhh
Interesting. I don't think Jessica has voiced anything before. Not that a Sonico role is that huge of an undertaking.

Clutzy girl with big boobs voices clutzy girl with big boobs. If that isn't typecasting...

Is that show terrible? It seems like it would be terrible.
Yay, some one knows quality figures! I am going to work on getting the main three Shinsengumi next.
My finger slippedfive times.
Congrats man, excellent purchase. Trust me, once you get all seven, it will be worth it.
Actually, it's worth it for Satan alone. She is breathtaking. I'm sure you'll agree when you receive her. d(^_^)v
Wow, that was fast. She's not showing up under the "Pre-order Items" link which is strange. Nice job finding her.
But yeah, happy with the original version. Hopefully. I'll see once I receive her.
I actually really enjoyed it. It's not nearly as "fan-service heavy" as one might think, it's more slice-of-life than anything else. It's actually pretty tame in the T&A regard. It also has a pretty good sense of emotion to it [at least for me]. It was a lot of fun.
But then, I like weird anime.

I don't like how restricted her leg movement is. I don't think it's the straps either. I haven't figured out why yet. Other than that I think she's awesome.
She did a voice on RWBY. Not awful but nothing special.
It's much better than I expected it to be. It feels more like a slice-of-life show. It's less fanservicy than I expected too, because it focuses more on Sonico as a musician than Sonico as a model. Zombie ep is best ep.
I'm glad to see someone here share my opinion [read above]. d(^_^)v

Celia-senpai costs too much. The fact that she's cast-off further complicates matters. Sometimes they can be sketchy in terms of how well the clothing goes back on. I'm not willing to risk investing in a cast-off Vertex figure. I love the way she looks, but Vertex up in here with dat Max Factory pricing. These muthafuckas be trippin.

Too tempted to undress her?We all knew Celia-senpai was going to be expensive. Being cast-off is a problem too. I shall pass
Too worried that pieces of clothing will warp during shipping to a point it's unusable (see Leviathan horrible t-shirt).

Just bought a Valvrave kit. Knew I would have to assemble it myself but wow. So many little pieces!!

I have over a dozen figures that are cast off, and I've only ever had that sort of problem once. The entire rest of the 7 Sins line that I own is fine, for example (Asmodeus, Lucifer, Mammon and Satan). Leviathan was a particularly egregious example of what can go wrong with bad cast off designs.
For the curious, the figure I had the problem with was MH Vante/Vingt. Her underwear shrank or something and wasn't able to attach properly to her bodysuit (as well as the body suit had that same type of really awful soft-plastic material w/ tiny pegs to hold together). Fortunately, you could wedge them between her legs and they would stay in place.
Hobby Search/Amazon
Japan
But yeah, because of the 18+ limitation, it's impossible to simply order it from the usual sites since they won't ship outside of Japan. I'm kind of tempted to purchase both exclusives, from Melonbooks [already pre-ordered] and Toranoana, just so I can have both tapestry [they line up next to each other, completing the picture].
But that would be insane. Right? Maybe, if someone was interested in just the artbook itself, I could purchase the second exclusive bundle and sell the book [at retail cost, plus shipping] to someone here when it's released. I'm still going through the decision in my head.
