Need to take better pics once I figure out where she's going on my shelf... Was damn hard to take a good photo of her though. Flash kept washing her out.
How'd you get her so early? Mine got pushed to the end of the month.

Sideshow let me know that I was qualified for early shipping (they got her early) so they processed her last week and shipped out on Friday.
Sucks dude, but you'll get her soon enough.

Pretty disappointed with Figma Asuka, think I actually prefer my Microman version.
though it could just be the Test Suit that im disliking about it.
Still want Rei though, she actually looks great.

Ah makes sense. I've got her along with the Joker 2.0 on the way at the end of the month.

Sounds good. May try to take another few pics with my actual camera (was using my phone to take what I could) to see if I can get better shots of her face. And strangely, the doll hair didn't really annoy me this time around despite preferring sculpted.

Heh, I know that feeling. The doll hair on the Baby Doll Sucker Punch 1/6th scale annoyed the shit out of me. Took me nearly an hour to get it just right.
I've been using pre-paid credit cards for a long time to buy stuff online, but this is seriously making me consider getting a real credit card:
Got this bad boy preordered. He'll look good next to the 1/4 Endo I have from Sideshow.

I think it's her haircut in the movie that makes the doll hair for BW work.
I ended up just brushing the hair back from her face with my thumb (after removing the plastic headband) and she looked great. Granted that was just for the right side of her face (her right) so it was easy. The left side looks perfectly fine so her having shorter hair this time around versus in IM2 makes all the difference in the world it seems.

anybody know is senjouhara (alter) is salable by amiami
Ragingnight
Member
yeah.
They both have pros and cons.
I like alter's base and how you can pose it differently. GSC has a better model and pose but I kinda don't like how you have to view her in only one direction. But if Alter requires EMS then GSC all the way.
edit
yep ami ami just confirmed that its too big. GSC HERE I COME! Thank god they answer decently fast. Mandarake takes forever to respond or just flat out ignore you.

For those interested in the new Jurassic Park toys I took some pics. I know that these aren't the greatest.. I was in a rush, and couldn't get a better backdrop and wanted to take the pictures before I lost the daylight. None the less, I think people wanting to get a good look at the toys will like these!

I prefer the GSC pose, model, and face. Something about her face and body are off on the Alter. Maybe it's her eyes that seem a bit too far apart and/or her breasts look to be bigger/more out there in comparison, not sure.

i figured Ive got some stuff(started in the last couple of months) so I might as well post em now
First thing's first, I currently have these on order
The Swamp Thing and wonder woman arrived.
The Wonder Woman was broken and the heart was missing though
The swamp thing on the other hand looks INCREDIBLE. I'm so glad I bought it, now I just need a place to put him
Im thinking of making a tiny section in my bookshelves that have the alan moore and scott snyder swamp thing trades with him nearby somehow. Dunno yet

Ugh, never liked that show myself, but there should be a lot of cool figures out there, I'm guessing that most of them would probably be ecchi though.

Anyone ever painted a model before? Just preordered [PLATZ] 1/35th Panzer IV D tank from Amiami, and Nendoroid Miho Nishizumi. Kinda wanted to paint the Panzer IV to match the show.
So any tips on painting models
So any tips on painting models
I enjoyed the show, but I didn't ever buy any figures for it. None of them really 'wow'ed me enough, and the character designs were a little too plain to make interesting figures. I may grab the nendoroids someday since they're incredibly adorable, but I didn't really fall in love with the scaled figures.
Most of them aren't ecchi at all, really. I mean, there's the usual swimsuit fanfare and the one or two that have a little-too-convenient panty flash, but the show wasn't really raunchy enough to warrant a bunch of ecchi figures.

Heard the word 'oreimo' and just had to chime in. Best kuroneko figure:
She's sits prettily on my office desk at work everyday smiling at me

I don't disagree, probably would be my favorite if not for the fact that she never wore that outfit in the show.

I think she ends up wearing it in s2. But don't quote me on that.

My P4 Arena Aigis figma is here, and I have to say I'm a bit disappointed. The joints on the weaponry are all very loose, making them very difficulty to pose in a position where gravity won't just swing them downward (god forbid you want to set up one of the poses from the box). Additionally, the wrist joint on one of her hands is defective. It looks like paint got globbed up in one of the side sockets and prevents the axle from going in, and the assemblers tried to jam it anyway which ended up bending the side-wall of the joint.
Probably my most disappointing figma of all time from a quality-control perspective. If I didn't already have several awesome figmas, this one would probably put me off of the whole line.

Thx. Beyonzo will now be mine.
Oreimo swimsuit figures are pretty gross. But I always thought this one by Kotobukiya was cute.
yea, her design is perfect for figures. super cute and full of energy. never watched the show.

imo not until late 2013 at earliest. There hasn't even been a sculpt shown yet or anything.

For that price tag, I'm in. And I think the white is "limited"
Ragingnight

it is but it is as limited as the pink alisa that I have which is still available at the kotobukiya us store last I checked.
Thanks for the headsup. I just had to do exactly what I said I wouldn't and order another one.

I picked up the MG Unicorn Banshee gundam kit!! I will build it some weekend in the future.
Custom one with LEDs modded in I think. Not sure if it's regular or metallic finish edition
