FUCK! I was totally ready to insta-buy that shit, too. lol
Ah well, ordered my Bishoujo Power Girl from Amazon. If I hold off any more, she'll end up being $150 by the time I finally decide to buy her.
Also, random - I'd love to see a bishoujo Mera.

I can't post a link since I'm on my phone, but go check Tomopop for a sick Deathstroke ART FX statue, 1/6 scale.
Do want.
Do want.
Mistral Nereis, Suzuha, and Raven all delayed until "after June".
HAHAHAA
Saw it pop up on my feed, looks pretty good. Some good ones in the ARTFX line

I added even more Eaglemoss figures to the collection. I have a sickness, folks.
I love these freaking things!
Lex Luthor, Steel and Wonder Woman:
Colossus Special Edition next to his sister Illiyana (Magik) for scale:
Sentinel Mega Special Edition next Cyclops (again for scale)
Of course the Sentinel isn't properly to scale as it would weight in freaking ton in lead, but it's freaking huge in comparison to the standard 3.2 inch figures.
I posted the Chess collection previously, here's the other side with the rest of it minus these additions:

So I've got three figures shipping from AmiAmi this month, and I can't decide on shipping method... How pricey is EMS?
A little more than twice what unregistered sal costs.

I'm kinda trying to figure out a ballpark dollar amount here.
I think the minimum is $15-ish, with three figures it might be in the $40-50 range.
Then you have to be a lot more specific. A nendoroid or figma would cost a lot less than ultimate madoka. 3 scaled figures could easily hit $60+ though. It's impossible to say. But it'll be a lot, and you'll probably get sticker shock. I've had mandarake charge me 4700 yen just for 2 scaled figures, and I've had amiami charge me 6500 for 2 scaled figures with big boxes, a figma, and a couple of soft vinyl dq monsters. There's no reason you have to ship them all together though. You always have the option of splitting it up and having them mail them separately by sal.

like how GSC delayed Princess of the Crystal and keeps delaying it month after month
It was supposed to come out in February and its now mid May. I hope it ends up a good figure.

Well, I've got Kongiku, Hacker Chelsea, and the Rintaro Okabe (Steins;Gate) re-release. Kongiku is in-stock now, I'm just waiting on the other two. I was kind of expecting to pay somewhere in the $50 range already.
It'll depend on whether it goes over 3kg. Up to 3kg, and the most you'll pay is 5400, but if it goes over you'll end up paying the 4 kg price, which is 6800.

3kg is almost 7lbs. though, no? I doubt it would be that heavy. Anyway, thanks.

Slightly off topic here, but I just picked up Yamashita Shunya's 4th artbook, Beautiful Noise, and it has all most of the Marvel, Mass Effect, Tekken (incl many that haven't been announced as figures yet - Angel is stunning) and one-off Bishoujo illustrations in it, most of them full page. Sadly, none of the DC ones are present, but if you like that line of figures, I definitely recommend picking up this book. Of the places that have it in stock (or short backorder), I think CDJapan is the cheapest. I got it for $43 incl SAL shipping.

Ah man. Exepected it, and June is pretty full for me, but still a downer. I'm starting to wonder when Phat Bayonetta is going to come out as well.

Ezio from Assassin's Creed 2, Resident Evil (Capcom), and the Prince of Persia movie if that counts.

Whoooo, Finally got my Femshep Bishoujo. They only shipped it, like Wednesday. But it was from the Midwest, and I'm in NY. So now I know why they charged me $17 shipping.
Still haven't heard from the illustrious Belgian Post regarding Kongiku. And monday is a holiday which means they will show up probably on tuesday.
With my luck they won't bother ringing and just leave the note, meaning the package won't be available at the post office until the next day.
The funniest thing is even if I answer the door they'll ask for the customs fee to be paid in cash. They don't give change (they don't carry extra cash). Don't have the exact amount? See ya tomorrow at the office! (and of course the amount to pay varies with the package and I suspect with whoever is filing the report at Customs).

yeesh, your post service sounds really terrible.
Yeah,
Love living in the states where customs are not even an issue. Like, it never happens. Ever. The worst I've had was Fedex (two times) had to verify the contents from something overseas. I just told them what it was and how it was gaming items and they released it within 24 hours. They were concerned it was something business related but as soon as I told them it was personal on it went.
But, they have cheap and plentiful exquisite beer in Belgium, so it is all a wash I guess.
Just got mine a few days ago as well, still haven't opened the delivery packaging.
In order to really understand the depth of fail that this service (and the entire administration along with it) is, one needs to understand our political system.

The video is a few years old but most of it is still up to date. In fact, the central government lost more power in favour of the regions in the last elections won in part by flemish (dutch speaking) separatists.
End of Offtopic.
I am tempted to grab the Play Arts Kai WW. I can't unsee Jennifer Hale's face off that statue. Yes, I'm a fan.

3 of them are a joke if it's the modern DMC. I have such bad memories of the most recent DMC :'(
Wow she does look like her :S

That's the first time I've ever seen an articulated toy that looked that, uh, sexy. Not that I'm attracted to toys or anything...ahem.

God, Play Arts art design is so nasty. They take any style of character and add everything it needs to look fucking horrific.

The crotch area looks a bit weird. What with the way there's space between the pelvis and the actual legs. Not that I was uh, looking there or anything.

Right, time to post my stuff.
I'll do it in a couple of posts
First off my custom Scarecrow. The sculpt on the Hot Toys one didn't have to baggy look from the films and looked too angry. It's by no means perfect but I think it looks more like the mask from the films. I also made a screen accurate fear toxin belt piece, which the Hot Toys version didn't have. I need a better suit for it though.
Next up is my custom Gordon made from a Medicom Jack Shepard. I added the jumper and coat, which I dyed myself. The police badge I made from a mould of the one that comes with the DX01 Joker. I had to sculpt a neck onto the head as it didn't fit the Medicom body at first.

Next up my custom Ra's al Ghul.
The head is from Headplay with a beard and more fitting hair sculpted on. The Cane actually works and is made from a metal pipe and a kabab stick, finally I made a blue poppy and velvet scarf. The gloves are from the lastest T2 Terminator Hot Toys.
And now my real stuff:
