Anyone know what that figure on the subwoofer, with the the girl in wedding dress and the dog, is?

I just coincidentally found out the extent of his nerdity earlier today. Holy crap. This guy is living the dream man. This only makes me like him more, and it somehow retroactively makes Election 1 and 2 even better.

Holy Fucking SHITBALLS. I will not make fun of his stupid fake tan anymore. Respect +1000. Not even my wife (who's a bigger fan of the guy than I am) can believe it.

Figured it out: http://www.foobarbaz.jp/figure/review2007/f_765pro_azusa_wedding/

Was preorder limited, so would have to spend quite a bit via auctions nowadays to get one. Absolutely gorgeous though (I'm a huge sucker for wedding dresses, and the dog is absolutely adorable), so I might have to track one down somehow.

It's not from an anime exactly, but it's designed by mecha musume artist Shimada Humikane (Strike Witches, Sky Girls). It's from a line of original, highly articulate figures by Konami and designed by multiple artists called Busou Shinki.

I also have another one.

Cool, thanks for the info. Kind of glad it's not from an anime, will feel like less of a fraud now if i get one :p

I've never bought any Japanese models, but I think I have to. After discovering Densha Otoko this last weekend, I *have* to have a Tsukishiro M&#299;na figure. HAVE TO.

I cannot stop watching the opening to Densha, especially Densha Otoko Deluxe, just to see Tsukishiro fly around and kick ass!

Is 80 bucks a standard price for a 1/8 figure? I honestly don't know what is common and uncommon.

Can anyone help?

Great...yet another figure I have to keep my wife from seeing...if she does, she'll buy it. We've got a half dozen figures still in their boxes because there's just no place to put them. I'm going to have to build a system inside a closet where they'll be stored, and then we'll rotate the ones out for display.

Not really a figure, but Gundam model kits have been posted in this thread.
Unicorn Gundam Master Grade. Built it this past Saturday.

I really want to buy a Master Grade Turn A Gundam next.

My phone's pics look like shit so I don't want to take any of my figures, maybe some other time.

In the meantime, I just saw this awesome Rise figure to be released in october; got my reserve placed already.

There is one Kuma if you want.




But after the lack of Yukari and Fuuka from P3, I wouldn't hold my breath for Chie or Yukiko.

I should visit OT more often. Never knew this topic existed. Guess I'll toss my meager figure collection into the ring:






Custom sketch and signature on the back of her head that Tokidoki did for us at NYCC last year.


Excuse the plushie mob. I was too lazy to move them out of the shot. I apparently need 2 more Mega Man figures to complete "Full Charge Mega Man". For now, his limbs are scattered.




I had a Mikuru on order to go with her, but it was canceled and never bothered to reorder her.





And coming soon:
Good Smile's Saber Lily & Griffon's Chizuru Minamoto.

Thanks! Doesn't hold a candle to some of the other collections here, but I think my brother and I have done well. If only I was into figures a little early. There's some nice Sakura Wars figures (especially Erica) that were released but are now out of print. *sigh*
Not to get off-topic, but I happened to blind purchase all of Stray Little Devil at AWA last year. I kept seeing the table with that huge banner at a lot of cons over the years and finally broke down and picked it up (the lady at the table highly recommended the whole thing too :lol). No regrets! Charming series and I highly recommend it!

Oh and I completely forgot to post this one:

Do I take them out of the box or not. :-\

If you want to sell them someday and think they'll be worth something, keep em in. If you want to keep them, just open it. I could never stand having an unopened box. Takes up more room and just doesn't look as good.
 
I'm late into this thread....

But I picked up a few movie based figures to put in my movie themed game room/office at home.

(Pics will be later)
All the stuff I'm buying are movie characters...

DC Direct 13"
The Dark Knight Batman
The Dark Knight Joker

Marvel Studios 12"
Daredevil
Wolverine
Dr. Doom

Yes, but do you have the one from the Xenosaga 1 and 2 LE game collections ? :D

If I did they would be on the picture. So sadly I don't.
Everything on the picture is what I've got in Xenosaga figure way.
I would love to get a hold of them both, even if the EP2 KOS-MOS is... Eh, you know...
And the Bome figure. So much I want. >.<
Perhaps one day.

I have both and despite the XS2 figure looking so ugly, it's worth it for the amazing job they did on the bike. Good luck in finding them though.

Now you need to get the Alter Ver. 1 and Ver. 3 KOS-MOS and T-elos.

Yeah, the bike is awesome. Really hope I can find them one day.

I want the Xenosaga Legends Ep2 Swimsuit for KOS-MOS also.
When you say Ver.3 KOS-MOS are you speaking fo Alters Swimsuit one, or the Legends figure V3?
Oh, yes really want the T-elos figure.

I thought they made a regular Ver. 3 figure, but after Googling it, I guess I was wrong. They did a repaint of the KOS-MOS swimsuit figure and released it as a T-elos swimsuit figure.

I wish they'd make E.S. figures. That would be nice to have. They should do a full E.S. series of figures and figures of the Zohars.

Yeah, I would love to have E.S figures. A shame they never did any. =/
