If they gonna continue releasing all Vesperia characters then I might be interested.

I hate it when companies release one or two characters out of the entire cast like Persona 4.

Has anyone picked up any of those Mega Man (Proto Man, Zero, etc) models from Kotobukiya?
Never assembled any models or anything like that before, so I'm wondering how difficult assembly might be.

I got mega man and it's easy to assemble, it took me 1-2 hrs to do mine

I've heard nothing but excellent things about them.

But clicking that link and looking at the recommended items just reminds me of how I missed the boat on D-Arts X and how expensive it is now. I wish Bandai would do another run of him...

 

[Busaiku]

How much do I have to worry about the pieces not popping out of those sheets properly (like unnecessary plastic still hanging on, or a full piece not coming off)?

I have X and Roll. They are easy to assemble. Get a snip thing so you can cut them cleanly and a little bit of sanding paper for the nubs. They'll look great.

 

[Busaiku]

Don't have any sand paper, could I get away with a nail file?

I have Mega Man and love it. It's very high quality and not too difficult to put together. Just be really careful with the pieces and assembly. Mine is unpainted but still looks great.

I would be leery about ordering from Amazon or eBay. A lot of knock offs out there.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

kind of. If you're really careful. Could use an exacto knife to carefully shave them off a bit too.

But yeah, Megs looks good.

 

[johnsmith]

Those megaman kits on amazon are sold by amazon themselves, and they're listed as an official seller on kotobukiya's site. That's pretty much as legit as you can get.

Nice. Then I would say go for it.

My first Marvel Bishoujo Statue

Oh. My. I'm in love. Great pickup!

 

[Hypertrooper]

Hey guys,

I definitely want these Metroid Figures. How do HLJ handle the pre-order? Do I have to pay asap?

Or Hobby Search? How do they handle the pre-order?

For HobbySearch and AmiAmi both, you don't pay until they have the item in stock. I am not sure on HLJ b/c I haven't ordered from them in years.

 

[No_Style]

That Figma Samus figure is sweet.

 

[sixteen-bit]

That Figma Samus figure is sweet.

Can't wait to get mine

 

[Busaiku]

Are there any other good Mega Man toys to get (I got the Zero and Mega Man models)?
Not the D-Arts stuff though, cause Mega Man X sucks.

 

[Barrow Roll]

Not the D-Arts stuff though, cause Mega Man X sucks.

What.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

Man, ordering from Japan without tracking and cheapest fees is so nerve wrecking! Takes so long and I won't know if it gets held up in customs.

Ordered DPCF Nico Robin (Western Version), $85 shipped

Megahouse POP Nami Strong Edition (Ending Version) $65 shipped

and got this god like Ichiban Kuji Goku PVC statue. $73 shipped

Hoping to get the Freiza at a cheap price to accompany it too around $65 to $70 shipped.

These things are hella expensive on eBay and I can't navigate or order off Yahoo Japanese Auctions for cheaper. I hit up Mandarake.co.jp for all of this stuff.

 

[Krelian29]

I'm done with this, so many decals...

 

[Im_So_Pringles]

I've always wanted to buy a figure or two, but I've always thought that they were very pricey.

There's usually a holy grail collectible for any popular stuff. Worth it if you like it enough.

 

[Hypertrooper]

Metroid figures pre-ordered.

You. Get out! ------>

 

[superfamicom]

I just placed a pre-order for this.

SamusFigma.jpg

Damn. that looks good.
Want, but no monies

 

[ResidentDante]

Some of mine, that are game related!

 

[cube444]

Guys I have a bit of a guilty conscience lately because I told a good friend of mine that I sometimes masturbate to some of my figure models. He says I should go to see a counselor because it is very wrong but I only ever do it the odd time. I felt I could tell him because he's an even bigger collector than I am.

Guess I'm just looking for someone to tell me it's no big deal and that I actually don't have a bigger psychological problem.

 

[Hypertrooper]

I did too and the Zero Suit Variant.

It doesn't come out until June. Save those pennies!

 

[Lyte Edge]

Yeah, may have to get that Samus. Figma is awesome, Revoltech sucks.

The Tekken Bishoujo Christie Monteiro figure is out. Should have received mine today.

Where did you order yours?

 

[Lyte Edge]

Play-Asia.

The figure comes with three different images that you can put under the base...two TTT2 logos and Harada's autograph, lol.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

Got mine on preorder from BBTS. Should be shipping in few short weeks. :3

Gotta pace myself.

Received my ENTERBAY RM-5 body.

Fucking sick dude.

I always regretted not picking a MG Sinanju up when I saw it locally for a good price.

I noticed in the pick-up thread you got the MG Unicorn. What's the difference between that and the Katoki version?

It's called Agalmatophilia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agalmatophilia

As long as it doesn't get in the way of normal social interactions then it's not a problem. However if you start preferring statues over real females then you should seek help.

 

[johnsmith]

You probably shouldn't go around telling people about it.

I think it's closer to the anime version and more articulation ?
from http://www.1999.co.jp

This model is better than the ver ka. What they were focusing on was the transformation but it resulted in poor articulation in the ver ka. model. So bandai redesigned it and released this one. This special edition model has some transformation improved and has better elbow and knee parts granting better articulation so you get better poses. If you want a MG unicorn gundam and want some decent to good poses, then don't get the ver ka. model. Instead get this one. It's worth it.

 

[sixteen-bit]

gotcha. Yeah the articulation is quite bad in mine.

 

[Krelian29]

MG Sinanju is not that hard to do but those decals are easy to break and there are over 200. I wish i could find water slide decals for those i broke :\

 

[Barrow Roll]

Anybody know where I can still possibly get the D-Arts Mega Man X for less than $90? I'm looking for just the regular version. Not the shiny SDCC version, not the Tamashii Comic version, just regular ol' X.

Can't believe this thing is so hard to find now. It only came out last April!

PlayArts Meryl is coming along nicely.

 

[Bullza2o]

So I've never imported any of these things before, and I just now preordered the Samus figma. It just looks too good. Can any of you tell me how much I can expect for SAL unregistered shipping to IL, USA?

As long as you don't cum on them and post pics on 4chan/whatever, I think you're okay.

Am I the only one who noticed this?

Are you that surprised to see something like that posted in this thread? Really?

 

[bryanee]

This isnt everything I have, I have got a whole bunch of Transformers Gen 1's boxed up and put away because I just dont have the room to display them right now. I know Zippy isnt a figure but I just love it so much, gf at the time bought it for me.

I've also got a boat load more of those DC Superhero figures, but as with the Transformers I just havent got the space to display them even though they arent very big.

 

[Barrow Roll]

http://www.imageanime.com/rockman.html

Sold out.

But thanks anyways.

 

[radiantdreamer]

That's not very nice of you. Some shit needs to be taken seriously sometimes.

 

[ColonialRaptor]

I just received a model of the Battlestar Galactica and a Viper MKII that I will have to build... will probably take me a couple of years, but hey.
