I gave a girl a wonder woman action figure on our sorta-first date. I don't think it went over that well.

lol. Well, look on the bright side. At least you know early that she doesn't appreciate your hobby.

Honestly, any woman that doesn't like wonder woman is weird anyway. :p

Nicely done. I can't paint models for shit, so it limits what I can spend my money on. :(

Nice Taiga figure <3. I couldn't tell who the hell she is at first, but thanks to this wallpaper in my pics folder.

You should have bought Ami figures, dude.


I got my Yui Hirasawa Figma today =3 Yay!

Overall, the figure looks good especially the guitar, but her facial expressions are terrible >_>

Pretty happy with the Taiga figure. Did a nice photoshop of it after the shoot too. Nice wallpaper! saved!

Ami figures?

Isn't Yui's facial expression always like that though?

Ami is one of the best looking characters in Toradora!, IMO. However, after looking closely at this pic, this figure doesn't really look that good especially the face. Taiga's crown figure is way better and it is the best Toradora! figure. Your pic is really awesome indeed. Anyway, here are a few (six in the middle of the page to be specific, open in a new tab) very neat & high resolution wallpapers if you are interested.

Yui's facial expressions are always like that, but I feel like there something wrong with her face in that figure. The chibi version is way better LOL!

Yeah, that Ami figure doesn't look so hot... looks like the other Toradora characters got shafted... it's a shame that only two Taiga figures actually look good too. The others don't look so hot.

Thanks for the link! I didn't even know there was a Toradora PSP game!

Once I get the K-On! band complete... :D Ritsu is on the way! :3c

OH MY GOD Ghouls & Ghosts vinyl! I especially like the headstone with the pixelated 'text'.

Unfortunately, unlicensed Wonder Festival exclusives + Gargamel = Fuckin' expensive out the ass, if they can even be found. Am cry :(

I preordered it from otacute.com.
I also received another one a few days ago :)

Now I need to find some time to open the 30 boxes and install all the Nendoroid in my two Detolfs ...
This is gonna take a while :D

Oh dang! My Ritsu isn't here yet! HLJ takes WAY too long... did you preorder her from otacute as well?

I might consider switching over to otacute if their one-stop shop is better and faster. It seems their prices are a tad bit more expensive than any other place though, and they also don't let you cancel preorders, which other places do.

I ordered this one from Otacute too.
I usually order from 3 websites, Otacute, nihonju and Amiami.
I choose SAL Registered shipping, it is faster than standard SAL ( one week to ship here in France ), and cheaper than EMS.
I avoid HLJ : SAL takes a month to ship, and their boxes with their logo often attract customs and their taxes :D

Oooh, absolute win. I love Shunya's work. He's such a great artist.

Yamato and Creator's Labo are getting better at their craft, though still not quite to the caliber of GSC or Alter. It's still damn nice. :D

This black version is a variant color, right? It looks sweet compared to the pink one. :D

Admirable goal, but not really. :lol I just started collecting them last september and I'm close to tracking down my last one (finding Bellemere was hard). After that I'll be caught up. Oh, and I'll of course be collecting every POP release this year as well. I'll have close to 40 by year's end. :D

I don't follow One Piece, but I love some of thee character designs. This thing is awesome. I saw a Smoker figure in Tokyo a few months back from the P.O.P. series that was something like $350 converted. Very well done. Dig the expression on Croc here, and that jacket is fuckin' fantastic.

Why do all the male figures stand with their backs arched, groin sticking forward? Its kind of akward looking and not terribly sexy/cool looking.

Anyway, nice figs guys. I may post the one or two I've gotten over the years.

Start NAO! There's pretty much no other work of fiction that's better. And they're re-releasing Smoker thank god. He's been selling for $300+ for the last two to three years.

Is that unusual? :lol Sorry I'm not really experienced in this stuff. Will it take a year or so?

I'm not as deluded as I make myself out to be
you guys with One Piece POP collections are seriously my heroes. Those things are badass and the POP series is just so damn awesome. I might one day attempt to collect the strawhats at least.

I have Luffy and thats the most important one for me so I have to be content with that for now.

Nah, probably 3 to 6 months for a release date set in stone, and preorders open. Usually another 3 months after that, they are released.

Nice! If I still bought figures, that would certainly merit consideration.

I have no room left to display the stuff...

So how do I go about buying some stuff from Moeyo.com? Do I need a plugin for my browser to translate the text to English?
