So the only figure I own is the blonde maid from Mahoromatic maid that my brother gave me for christmas the other year.

I was eating sushi with a friend and decided afterwards that I would check out the anime store across the street full knowing that I could get stuff cheaper online regardless.

The lady in the store had three figures for sale. One of them was Silfietta Luashia from Meishyoku no Reiki. I sort of contemplated buying it but I wasn't sure. It's made by Alter. She wanted I believe around $85 or $87 for it.

She also had a Nanoha figure from Alter and an Ivy from Soul Caliber figure.

if you can name them all id be surprised
there are more but i cant be bothered right now
Besides the obvious ones like Kimba, Cloud, Zidane, Pikachu and One Piece, I can only recognize Momohime, Yoko, that girl from Spice and Wolf, and the cat from Kiki's Delivery Service.

Just curious, when your display cases/shelves get full, what do you do with the figures you want to put away for the time being? obviously you don't want to put them in boxes because they will get damaged, unless you surround them with packing peanuts?

kind of worried about this
all of mine currently reside on the top of my computer desk
just kind of wrapped them in clothing when i took some of them back from Japan
that seemed to be fine i guess Styrofoam would be better though :p

You get more display cases/shelves! (Not mine, I wish!)

Okay serious question figurerine gaf: what do you say/do when you bring a girl home ?

I don't want to sound like a dick, but I'm guessing a few of the people who buy these would probably end up dating girls who also like anime and whatnot so it wouldn't be weird to them.

I have that Belldandy too!

Those shelves are awesome. It's a great solution for the problematic bottom shelves of the detolfs.

Interestingly enough, it was my wife that got me into figure collecting. She had no idea what she was getting herself into. She's not a figure collector or anime fan btw.

... it's been interesting.

I probably wouldn't be in to a girl who would find figure collecting "odd". It's a harmless hobby (unless you end up building shrines to Chiyo Chan or whatever..).

Anyway!

what the best store to buy figures. i really want that madoka chibi figurine.

I really dont know
Japan was cool though, they had 8 floors tall figurine stores
each level was a different genre and you could trade in ones you didn't want any more

probably easiest just to buy online from a random anime store

opps. yeah forgot to mention online. there was this site that usually had stuff for a few dollars less. sites like play-asia are just too expensive.

Got myself the Jehuty revoltech. I like it.
Just ordered an Alter Dizzy too. Can't wait for that to arrive.

i am so jealous of you right now, the jehuty looks great, but man, i wish i had the money to get dizzy.

I usually don't buy figures as pricey as that, but from the moment it was announced last year, I started a Dizzy fund, haha.

Speaking of which, it arrived today!

Got around to opening it today. It's a great figure.
She's great looking indeed, Congrats.

They need to make more Videogames related figures like this.
