Have you ever watched a series/read a comic/etc because you bought a toy from it?
I impulse bought the Umaru Nendoroid before the show even aired because I thought it looked adorable and ended up watching the show because of it.
I watched an episode of Sunred because I saw his figma and it looked interesting. Still haven't bought it though.
Bought some Zakus and then watched the 0079 series of Gundam.

I bought one of the Muv Luv figmas, then I watched the show.
I sold the figure.
Hi /toy/ !
/vr/ here.
My friends birthday is coming up and they are really into figures. I have ZERO knowledge in this area. This is gonna sound really bait/troll but here goes ...
How do I buy these figures? None of the sites list them. How do I know if they are counterfeit or not?

Thanks in advanced.

We don't take kindly to statues here.
Don't hold your hopes too highly for Madoka, she came out in 2013 so will be sold out forever or scalped.
Click 'Buy' and open all those links in new tabs. you might find one.
MFC usually tells you if there are known counterfeits; and as it doesn't, you probably won't get a fake as long as you don't buy from china.

I have a mighty need for some robot model kits with skirts
Or generally just a really girly looking robot will do
>>5585180
You'd love some Phantasy Star model kits then
>>5585180
Lemme try and list some
>Drossel and Drossel Charming (both Chogokin and Figma)
>Daibadi's Polynians
>OE MoMos (beware quality control)
>GN Archer
>Nobell Gundam
>Koto Dolores
>Koto Roll if you're okay with Robot Masters.
>Fei-yen which you posted as well as multiple other Virtual-On characters
>Some Transformers
>Tiny Hoi-Hoi san and the Desktop Army B-101 Hoi Hoi set
>Jizuri Suzaku
>Frame Arms Girls if you're okay with light metal
>Lego and Bonkle if you're willing to put in the effort
>Various Mazinger Angels, e.g. Aphrodite A, Diana A, Venus A, etc. mainly in Chogokin.
Also >>5585188
I'm probably missing a whole bunch and of course there's plenty of super obscure stuff that's out there.
Many of these are in varying states of availability, so look into them. OE MoMos and DaiBadi Production's stuff both currently have threads, and if you use fgts.jp you can get plenty of info on other figures, e.g. Drossel Charming Figma vs. Chogokin.
In terms of roboticness most of this with some exceptions goes towards the "heavier metal" side of things, there are of course a medley of more overtly human looking characters that you can get as well.
>>5585193
Not all of these are model kits and a bunch of them are just female robots. I'm not looking for a robot that happens to be a girl. I'm looking for stuff that's pretty girly. Metal skirts with little metal bows, that kinda thing.
Nobell Gundam looks great, but I can't find it at good price sadly.
The MoMos with the bunny suit design are all fantastic looking but they seem expensive for what they are. Also they don't look like model kits.
tempted to pick this one up

I don't think McFarlane should be able to call themselves a toy company anymore.
>>5585136
why is that
Their detail has remained but their durability has turned to shit.

Is no where safe?

>Amazon is scalping now.
>now
Amazon scalps harder than almost anywhere else.
How much is it supposed to be?
Most of the time it is 3rd party sellers scalping (yes, I see in the pic that it is "sold by Amazon" so in this case it is indeed Amazon doing it.)
I started Modok thanks to marvel's what the--
You should put someone else's head on there.
I bought (and built) all the figures to build Red Onslaught.
MODOK is great
Im trying to finish thanos and hulkbuster
Thoughts on these?
>>5584880
Is that a GIANT BARBIE EGG?
>>5584880
They look cheaper than Kinder eggs, and that's saying something. Also, I bet the chocolate taste worse than Kinder.

Glorious.

Four months early, this mildly disappointing fucker shows up.
The vest is a tiny bit big, might get a friend to take it in so it fits tighter. Unfortunately there's no puffy vest, just the cloth one.
Vest is fucking nicely printed regardless.
And unlike Jacket, his alternate head is actually properly sized for his body and looks friggin great.
