>Hobby Search Japan - items stay in stock the longest
>Mandarake - search figma or フィグマ

The S shape is always good advice though. The basic idea is that straight lines tend to look stiff.

>>5338367
I po this nendo, just to add more numbers, so maybe they will do the figma too.
>>5338344
>tfw you will never get a Metal Bat or King figma
>>5338344
yeah i knoe
I love the Mahou Shoujo Sayaka figma, all the swords, one of the best of the lot to pose.
Did anyone get that Figma Link (from the sale 2 weeks ago) from midtowncomics shipped yet?
For those who didn't see
What's the best way to get hands to stick on a figma? I have the clear figma 2.0 and it seems that her left hand will not attach to the joint no matter what I do. Any tips/suggestions?
>>5338359
What's she from? Her design is lovely.
Ya knoe
>>5339102
>GSC exclusive Junko hand

>>5338361

>>5338340
Why is she taller on the left
>>5339406
Because heels.
>>5339406
Try looking at the heels first next time.
Anyone?
is it good?
>>5339414
Not a figma.
>>5339414
>>134766355
>>5339414
>>5339463
The figma is really great tho. First use of the 2.0 body iirc and really poseable.
Only down side is that it's really difficult to do head swaps with her, because they were trying something new with her. I've seen some pull it off, but I've also seen other snap her neck off. I'll never try it.
I think they got the hint that people hated the new neck joint so they went back to the old way right after.

Wheres the bacon Miku

And this:

And all the other Toyota x Miku commercials.
So we're going to get a James Sunderland figma eventually, right?
>>5340063
What are you basing that on? Has there been a reveal?
>>5340072
Just wishful thinking, it would be odd to just release a game's enemies and none of the main characters
>>5340086
Probably because of how iconic they are.
If anything I'd imagine Heather to come first.
>1/12 Lamborghini Countach is delayed from December to July
Jesus fuck
>>5340988
The what now? I missed something.
>>5339752
She gobbled all the bacon off already.
Got a confirmation at my local store that my PO for ALO Asuna is ready for pick up. That was abnormally fast where normally, it would take that store at least 3 weeks for an item to arrive
>inb4 bootleg
Store is an official distributor. Also said store got Akuma Homura first than any shop I knew back when it was released though it was an exclusive item.
Also, knoe who
>>5340201
NO your wrong James will be first, Silent hill 2 is the most famous and iconic. Imagine James because James will be first
>>5341256
I want to believe that but I'm just having a gut feeling Heather will be chosen first before James for some reason.
Though if they botch his face at least it could somewhat match the SH aesthetic.
>>5341215
Fumikane girls or bust.
You knoe who needs a 2.0?
>>5341350
yeah I do
>>5341355
Not a fatefag myself (still need to play through the VN, still suffering through the opening) but yes, a million times yes.
Guess who I'm getting for Crimbo?
>>5341480
What's Crimbo
>>5341489
Christmas. Sorry, it's a Britishism.
>>5338344
>>5341549
>>5341350
Not Ika, that's for sure. The original is perfectly fine as it is.
Knoe.
>>5338344
>>5338407
Would buy.
>>5341736
Yeah, I'd buy a 2.0 but I'm certainly happy with my Ika as she is. Might be my favorite figma.
>>5338344
Damn right I know
>>5341807
Gah, I've been wanting DoA Figmas or so long. Hayabusa, Hayate, Kasumi, and Ayane please.
>>5338570
>>5338569
I love Kazama Kiryu with a passion but it feels like they really messed up. The face and jacket seem off.
>>5341816
Yeah.I definitely want a Jann Lee and Hitomi, too.
>>5341787
Eh. I like her a lot but I feel there's room for improvement. If they made one with a removable dress so you could display her in her swimsuit I'd buy it.
I'll admit I'm a tad bitter as mine came with a raft of QC issues, including a torso joint that gradually loosened to the point where it actually had to be permanently glued in place because it kept falling out. (No it wasn't a bootleg, it started fine but got worse over time.)
>>5341739
It's been years and still no figmoe of her. Get your shit together Max Faggotry.
>>5338344
>>5341739
>2020-5
>Still no best geah
>mfw
you knoe
>>5342059
I love how she singlehandedly BTFO all of the obsessive Smash fans who wanted their old and forgotten choices. Would buy figma.
>>5342069
Don't mess with a witch.
>>5342064
You're the worst type of "fan". Get a life.
>>5342059
Hell Fucking Yes.
>>5341320
why doe she have a leopard print light saber?
>>5341355
I have her and want an update version, I think she may be the worst figma I own besides maybe Killua or Shirou.
As mentioned before I'm getting TV version Strength. Out of interest, is the original OVA version worth owning?
Speaking of Strength, I don't know why but I always imagined her sounding like a Dreadnought, at least when she has her hood up. Something about a loli speaking with a deep metallic rumble is oddly hilarious, plus it goes well with her /toy/ given personality as a hamhands.
http://vocaroo.com/i/s0CFqn4hJEzm
>>5342059
2/3 of it would be legs
>>5342281
as long as she has the ass, i don't mind
>>5342059
>>5342064
still shocked by that. Now it makes me far more shocked that cloud is going into Smash since he did not win the contest and from what 'who did you vote for polls' I have seen he was never on the top tens. from what I have seen thus far he is just yet another sword swinging dude in Smash. At least Bayonetta brings a bit more to the party. And then they have yet another main character from an FE game coming in, who may just end up being yet another swword swinger like Cloud. But as I have yet to even look at videos for that FE untill it comes to america, I will reserve total judgement in that case.
But with Bayonetta winning that contest, its very possible she may get a figma considering all the other smash characters that have figmas.
>>5342281
even better
>>5342059
I was thinking about this a week ago, and now that she's in Smash...
I felt so happy, I definitely would buy a figma of her.
>>5342059
>>5342476
the greatest question is: original costume since it's "iconic" (the original costume is featured in the movie/anime, the game and her guest appearance in anarchy reigns) or bayo2 costume (to promote the game)?
probablythey would go with the second, and i wouldn't mind, since both are great
>>5342484
I personally would want one with the first game's outfit because it looks more aesthetically pleasing. I just think that there's too much going on in her second game outfit. But if Bayonetta were to have a figma, either outfit would be great.
>>5338569
Goddamn. It looks like a custom or a garage kit at best. If this is the prototype i don't want to know how the final product will turn out.
>>5338569

Merry Christmas, me...
>>5342673
Saw it coulda snagged another, honestly I didn't think the figure is worth THAT after having it. Fuck its cape.
>>5342733
When in doubt. It's still a really nice figure but that cape only fits so many poses before frustration sets in.
>>5342733
Yea, I saw it too and passed. I sold one before, that cape is just... just terrible.
This one any good? I'm right on the edge whether or not I should just go for it.
>>5342922
i like her
details are fantastic, articulation's good
>>5342922
The nurse is a good figma, anon
If you like her or the sauce material, then go for it

Shit, why haven't I recieved a payment request?!
>>5343263
Different distributor I guess
>>5343286
Usually amiami asked a week prior to release. Has anyone else recurved their amiami payment request?
>>5342922
Get her, she is amazing.
>>5343248
>>5343252
go buy it
>>5343307
name? origin?

That SR DXD Odin Sphere Gwendolyn Special Ver. is kinda sold out. I'll keep an eye out for secondhands then.
>>5342446
You know she would.
How is the already released gits motoko figure? Is it worth buying? I was thinking of getting the new one coming out soon too.
>>5343460
it worths it bro, my gf just bought it, Imma see if I can take some pictures of the figure.
>>5343460
I just realized I don't have many photos of her, but she has a GREAT range of motion, especially in her hip joint.

Going to rescue PH and Nurse from Customs today, hopefully they'll be worth the wait.
Does anyone know what kind of paint max factory uses for it's figmas? My lucina came with two scuffs on her and it's slightly aggravating. For reference it's the blue on her glove and one flesh color from the fingers.
>>5344640
>"Don't touch me you filthy casual."
>>5345130

>>5345169
In that case she's talking to the viewer? Idk I've never seen it. I just thought the face with that posture was funny.
>>5345029
I really like these boxes.
>>5345585
Man, I can see why people like this line so much. High quality boxes, included stand, hand rack, goddamn plastic bag.
The figure is great too. Shame about the face, though.
>>5345603
Say what you will, anon, she looks like she could murder a hot dog, and that's not a bad date.
>>5345603
What's wrong with her face?
>>5345609
Well, she's not the kind of girl you'd bring to your folks, if you catch my drift.
Having so much fun with the nurse I forgot about this nerd. What was his name again? Triangle Face? He's cool too I guess.
>>5345645
His name's on the box in plain English
My racing miku 2015 shipped last night. I'm so excited for her but I wished they'd done the mecha-horse for her to ride.
>>5345663
I was joking, son.
But yeah, really great figures. Hopefully they'll make a James soon.
>>5344908
Im so excited...
Too excited to even open her!
>>5344631
I guess its time to lurk mandarake and pay slowpoke dollars for her.
Fucking limited edition shit.
>>5345693
you better fucking pose her upside on the stand.

I'd get a newer pic but I'm moving house right now so all my figma are boxed up in a bigass pile of moving stuff.

>>5346222
>its a bootleg on ebay
Hulk haven't been released, so it isn't a bootleg, is just a error in the box

>>5346433
What the fuck is that.
>>5341807
My nugget
>>5345751
Of course!
>>5346013
Why won't they just release Nico? The best LL.
>>5346642
She'll be last.
>>5345854
KOS-MOS
Is Nagisa Momoe any good? She looks absolutely adorable but I know she's absolutely minuscule and that skirt looks like it would impede articulation.
>>5346227
I'm more excited for the possibility of figures after the anime starts than for the anime by itself.
>>5346297
I suspected that he was the SH when I saw him.
WRS
>>5346572
not exactly what I was asking for but it's closer than every other photo I've seen of her.
>>5346757
Man, those BRS Figma variants are really nice. Do the "wings" move or are they just static parts?
>>5346433
Ew. This is awful.
>>5346781
Not him, but IIRC the wing segments are each on their own balljoint.
>>5346911
Thanks, hopefully I can hunt down IBRS for a reasonable price one day on top of WRS.
>>5346927
IBRS is great, but be prepared to pay a lot for her as she was only released with a limited edition bluray boxset of the BRS anime. Mine costed £200 (though admittedly that was from eBay before I discovered Mandarake).
But yeah, she's a great figure. Not the most poseable but she looks absolutely fantastic. Be careful with the smaller stand though, the cannon lance puts it under a lot of stress.
>>5346927
I got WRS little over a year ago for $60 on Amazon. I saw one on Mandarake for about 7000 yen recently too. So she's not terribly pricey, and she is really cool.
IBRS though I have yet to find for a reasonable price.
>>5346433
so its not translucent and the white paint clumps...nasty
>>5346227
I need this. Both Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth figmas. I want to make them pose like this.
>>5346927
keep an eye out for the italian release version. it's the same figure repackaged with the first blu ray volume. it's generally cheaper since it's just the figure and the blu ray instead of all the extra books and stuff.
>>5346212
MF isn´t even trying anymore...
>>5346781
you can bend the wings, but not too much, also all the parts can rotate
here are mine, I modified a bit the right one
>>5346935
it's really cheap when it pops out in yahoo auctions, I got mine for 2500 yen, the other one is a double present..
You knoe?
>>5346933
best figure I have, I really cant find a fault at all, I love it
found it for 140000 yen which is the lowest I ever seen, and because the seller thought the wears on the boots and cannon were not intended stuff..
>>5348341
I'll admit that is one pretty figma. Which BRS is that?
>>5348347
insane black rock shooter, the one they're talking about a few posts before mine
>>5348341
put one 0 too much
>>5348360
Ahh I thought they were talking about the white one.
>>5346673
>so she can lean forward in the saddle
Wow that'd be great if they actually released that fuckin horse
>>5348383
Just get the Fuunsaiki plamo brah, we're never getting that techno horse
>>5346695
Got her and the skirt doesn't at all because it's made of really soft plastic, her leg articulation is great. Her arms are more limited because her of her sleeves.
This is a good combo
sakura's legs + shinobu
>>5348338
I wish. That would make the perfect gift for a friend of mine.
>>5348808
Needs bare feet.
>>5338359
Since she's a gundam girl I'd sooner expect an S.H. Figuarts
>>5348341
What an idiotic seller. I believe you can see the wear and scuffs on the promotional pictures. Great fig btw I'm really pleased with mine.

Racing Miku 2016 design shown. Is it just me or are they a little bit late with showing off the design this year?
I like how they went back to the older orange colour scheme, it's different to all the blue we got for the recent years.
>>5350181
Not bad, I like it. I want to see how the hair turns out.
>Is it just me or are they a little bit late with showing off the design this year?
I feel that way too, though I don't know when they normally reveal the designs.
>>5346380
And with this, Max factory falls into a revolving spiral of lack of quality and shitiness.
RIP Figma.
>>5350181
She's getting less clothed each year.

She's not too bad. If I had to choose between nendo and figma I'd go for the latter.

I hope we see technohorse as a figma exride or at least a gk soon.
>>5350421
no yellow crystal tits, that can be fixed by putting some yellow paper inside the chest though(the chest is removable so don't worry to modify or anything)
he feels a little small and slim so keep in mind that.
but overall he's pretty good, get some monsters for him to fight, some transformers of the beast wars line can be good, also bugmen in their SIC iterations, or figuarts doras

It looks like they got ideas from each of the finalists concept art. It didn't turn out that bad imo.
>>5346013
look good, but i prefer to wait out the winter uniform version
Speaking of winter uniform, what are some guesses to when we will see the PO for 2016 winter miku?
Gotta get my hands on that snowboard/skies.
>>5350531
Probably around WonFes next February.
I just got this today. quite happy with it although i think the joints are a little stiff and the whole for the arm on the figma is a little too big as the arm keeps falling out.
>>5346572
Nice pose. Also nice glass cat.

And here I thought they were done with Strike Witches despite the 2.0 of the other one. Wish they'd release something new.
>>5351144
Strike Witches. Have fun in google.
>>5351144
>being this new
>>5351095
> 7560 JPY
For fucking real?
I'm a huge faggot for Strike Witches and I've been wanting to complete my figma set for ages, but this is really pushing it. I didn't buy that new Miyafuji and I'm not sure about Mio. The AGP isn't that bad.
When even crazy fans like me are having doubts there's something wrong.
>>5351095
I love Strike Witches too much to not buy this, but these prices are really starting to get ridiculous.
>>5351144
You'll grow to love it.
>>5351144
it's a meme series, don't bother
>>5351164
>The AGP isn't that bad
Do you have it? How does it compare to the figmas? I'd love to have the whole 501st but if MF wants 7500 for the rest of them, I don't think I'll be able to do it.
>>5351144
It's about as ridiculous as it sounds.
>>5350380
Best miku racing here.
>>5351095
At this rate, by the time they get to Perrine they'll be charging 8500 yen.
http://berserk-anime.com/
you knoe who needs a re-release
>>5351189
I'd rather they release the God Hand already
>>5351189
Band of the Hawk Guts is terrible though. Worst promo to production sculpt I've seen from a Figma.
>>5351180
I have all of them, like I said I love this stuff. Which is why I'm surprised I find myself wondering if I should buy these or not. Its like MF don't want them to sell.
AGPs are just OK. But they go for 1-2k which is well worth it. The strikers are as good as the figma ones, the faces aren't as good, not as cute or expressive. The sculpt of the bodies is probably the worst thing. They're out of proportion for the characters and really noodly. Its the thing the figmas always get right. The articulation isn't that great, not as fun to play with as figmas, but you can get her in a cool action pose and leave her alone and its fine.
Mio is the best of them I think. Her gun is in scale with her and the sword is really well made. She also come with a face of her pulling up her eye-patch which is really cool looking.
>>5351212
Pretty sure he means the Black Swordsman figma, the newest announced anime on that page will be set during Guts' solo adventures rather than the Golden Age arc.
>>5351189
Is this more ugly cgi movies, or a new tv series?
>>5351144
Hi newfriend, enjoying your first day?
>>5351217
>out of proportion for the characters and really noodly
Ugh, that and the faces sound pretty bad. The proportions especially, since that would probably make the AGPs look weird next to the figmas. For 1 or 2k yen I'm sure they're worth it, but I'm also a huge faggot for Strike Witches and I'd hate to have shitty versions of some of the girls. I guess it'll depend on whether GSC finishes the 501st, and how much their prices go up between now and then.
>>5351225
No one knows for sure yet, but it seems it'll be a TV series.
>>5351251
That's fair. I bought mine years ago when I assumed MF had forgotten about them forever.
Where are they pulling these prices from? I'm thinking I'll risk it and pick them up on Mandarake. The Love Live girls are expensive too, but they're showing up for a little cheaper now.
>>5351185
Better photo, same pose.
>>5351265
It's been rising ever since that economic slump of Japan if I remember correctly. Accessories even get lesser yet prices seem to be higher. This one for Mio I think is this damn expensive probably for accessories.
Goddamn she's nearly as expensive as my Phat Yukari Yakumo statue.
>>5350450
Man I thought that after shelling out latecomers tax for the 2014 Racing Miku it would be my last - now those sword and shield poses are making me reconsider.

>>5351569
It's not like they're going to stop doing them.
>>5351531
LOL. I remember that phrase, though I can't remember where exactly they said that. Did they actually shamelessly said that on the poll itself in hopes of swaying votes?
>>5351598
I remember it. It was really scummy on their part.
>>5351597
Nope, BUT if people stop buying their shit, they'll end up with excess shelf-warm inventories, which will eventually end up in bargain bins or offloaded to Mandarake shops as "unopened 2nd hand" for cheap. Then we win.

This is the same exact thing as Gamestop preorder bonuses.

and both concepts are bullshit
anybody got this?
>>5351453
Oh what the fuck is this bullshit? I'm even madder than I was before.
This is why after collecting almost 70 figma over the years I'm starting to stop buying them. Way to piss off your own fans GSC.
>>5351453
don't care bout that bitch
whens Shirley?
>>5352043
INB4 Shirley's bust size is a GSC only pre-order bonus.

Definitely not. It's just going to be another movie by Studio 4C.
>>5352075
Well I do feel like a crazy old man yelling about how much better it was back in my day when figmas weren't 7k.
>>5352124
I remember my first figma, Nagato Yuki, cost me only $20. She came with two pairs of shoes, two books, and a folding chair. Now a days that chair would have been a GSC store exclusive.
>>5351453
Why is she not wearing any pants?
>>5352189
she's a slut
>>5351212
I foresee the same thing happening to Kiryu Kazuma's upcoming release. Unpopular male figma release always gets shafted.
>>5352192
>>5351453
How likely is it that she'll show up on Mandarake with the face for less than GSC wants? I really fucking want that face but I'm not prepared to drop 9000 yen on it.
>>5352079
>the amazing hand drawn sequences in the movies
>then ruined by horrible done CGI
>>5352371
Likely.
Also check Jungle from time to time. I've seen a few figmas with the exclusive stuff run for a decent price. I think I noticed a Satsuki with her exclusive for 4.8k
Preordered two of the eyepatch girl with the hime cut!
I met a really cute Japanese girl when I went to Tokyo a couple of months ago, she had a hime cut!
I gave her a gift when I saw her again and she almost cried and apologized for her emotions!
Figure is still overpriced though, just happy they gave her a regular "neutral" face instead of only having faces with overly expressive looks/open mouths/non centered looking eyes like they've been doing lately.
>>5352546
>I gave her a gift when I saw her again and she almost cried and apologized for her emotions!
That's creepy
>>5352546
How old was she...? That kind of over-emotional response sounds like a middle schooler or young high schooler who's probably never had a boyfriend and still has her V-card.
That or all males she's dealt with before you were abusive assholes and so a dude being actually kind was too much for her to handle.
>>5351221
The anime is going to focus on when he's in his berserker armor.
>>5352612
It's a Japanese thing, I think. From what I've heard, they take gift-giving super-seriously over there, and the way you respond to a gift is sort of a big deal.
>>5352189
Same reason all of the strike witches don't wear pants.

For what purpose? She's stupidly expensive.

Am I missing something with the yen to USD/AUD etc conversions or have I just been overpaying for figma?
Oh god guys, what the fuck is happening?
I know for sure I put the correct address 100%
>>5351906
I do. She's a bit lacking in articulation for obvious reasons, but I love her.
>>5352685
>a bronx anon
Ayy, double check the info anon. Make a call if it's correct and see where it's going.
>>5352682
7.5k retail for something minimal is, yes. Given the larger KanColle figma like Nagato have been about 6k.
It must be something about the SW licence, even the nendos were more expensive than usual.
>>5352616
What are you basing that on, even the promo art has his Black Swordsman garb.
How much do you guys think I will be judged if I purchased the Satsuki as well as Sun tanned Sonico? I don't want my mother to see them and think I'm some sort of degenerate pervert.
>>5352709
yeah, it's a 100% correct, had to check through paypal cause usps doesn't tell you what address it's going to.
trying to call, but a fucking 1 hour wait time.
all this work for some weeb toys.
>>5352724
Just collect them if you like them that much. It's just plastic ass and tits. If you have shit like almost nude loli statues or Billy Herrington then it's hard to explain.
>>5352673

I'll get this, it's only 10k yen or so aftermarket.
>>5352743

>>5352755
>In universe: So that they're more combat-ready whenever the Neuroi attack
Or something like that, been a while since I watched SW.
>Reality: Fanservice
I should have mentioned Tokyo Otaku Mode has Satsuki for 40 dollars and Suntanned sonico for 30. Pretty good deals. First time orders get free shipping, too.
>>5352762
I ordered one last night and bought the 2014 figma today (well, if Mandarake confirms my order) for 12 000 円. That's far too much, but I just love last year's design. The nendoroid isn't enough.
>>5351686
Shit!, You weren't joking
Jewtastic!

>>5352926
I'm glad they made this Kitakami accessory set.
>>5352632
Note to self: never date a Japanese girl raised in the Japanese culture. Christmas and birthdays would be nerve-wrecking with such gift-giving/receiving etiquette rules.
My friend was always really interested in my Drossel. He somehow snagged one on Mandy for 7k. Got her in the mail, pulled her out of the box and hated her straight away.
So I have two Drossels now. It's Christmas come early. How should I pose them together?

I don't even care for her but this is worrying. At this point I'd rather get statueshit over these barebones expensive releases. Losing interest in the line as a whole. And yes I'm aware I'm not the first person complaining about this.
>>5352724
>I don't want my mother to see them and think I'm some sort of degenerate pervert.
But you are.

Truly disgraceful.
>>5353490
>I don't even watch KM
>>5352724
>I don't want my mother to see them and think I'm some sort of degenerate pervert.
Yes because nothing says pervert than a male who likes scantily dressed females.
If anything she'd probably start thinking you were straight, and stop hating herself for raising a degenerate faggot.
>>5354036
>I don't even care for her but this is worrying. At this point I'd rather get statueshit over these barebones expensive releases.
Same. I almost pre-ordered Yoshika but then I saw that the new 1/8 scale of her is only going for 5k yen on the aftermarket and the Mio re-release is going for 3k, and most of the others are somewhere in the middle. Figmas aren't going down much in price on the aftermarket after release either, they all sit around 4-5k. It's getting to the point where I can't justify spending so much more money for the mediocre articulation figmas have.
>>5354036
I paid less for my Alter Mio scale than they're asking for the figma. There's something wrong there.
>>5354455
MF jacking up their prices, or Jewdokawa asked too much for the licensing. Either way, if prices keep going up like this to the point it'll be more economical to stick to statues then I'm dropping this blasted line. No way in hell I'm going to pay for a figma the price of a fucking scale
If they are still releasing figmas from a dead anime like Strike Witches.
Then it means we still there is hope for a Zenbu figma, right?
>>5354950
We can hope anon, we can hope.
That being said though SW still has Operation Victory Arrow and S3 is coming out next year.
GX was the highest selling summer anime though from what I've heard on /a/ (quality source obviously) So MF would be insane to not cash in on that surely.
