Where to buy
>GSC Online Shop - some figmas only are available through their online shop

>Hobby Link Japan shipping is usual lower, but their prices are a bit higher, private warehaouse is available
>Hobby Search Japan - items stay in stock the longest
>Mandarake - search figma or フィグマ
>eBay/Amazon - only if you hate having too much money. Avoid bootlegs, you can spot them as 'Chinese version'

Question: Satzbatz or wait for anime ver. Ninja Slayer?
I only have Shizuo up this month, might add some little armory stuff to my order.
>>5901376
I'd say Satzbatz. Looks better and has a lot of awesome accessories.
>>5901393
That's probably what I'll go with, that middle looks fun. Wish the anime version had the green highlights, I'd have easily gone with him in that case.
>>5901490

>>5901336
>Which other character from Attack on Titan, did you wish have been made in the figma line?
I don't really care about SnK, but I'd buy an Annie. I think she's ok
>>5901659
>I think she's ok
Are you okay, Annie?
>>5901659
They should have done figfixs of the minor characters so you could throw their heads onto the Eren and Mikasa bodies. Kind of like how they did the Lucky Star characters with the alternate heads. The heights might be a bit off, but better than nothing.
>>5901336
When is this coming?
>>5901679
That really wouldn't work with Annie though, since she wears a hoodie underneath her uniform. I think there are small differences between all the characters. Still, it would've been better than nothing I suppose.
>>5901336
The obvious answer is Jean and it has to have this face, and then Historia.
>>5901686
Never, the flavor of the month has passed that it won't be profitable.
>>5901731
Yeah but S2 is coming! Right? Right?!
>>5901741
>Prototype figure
>Clear 3D print texture
>No joints
Anon, when do YOU think it's coming?
>>5901490
Missile is cool. Mine is unfortunately not straight, which is a huge bummer. Hope it's an isolated case.
>>5901686
ALBW Link has to get 3 more reissues first. Zero Suit Samus at least 2. Maybe 1 more Lucina.
>>5901679
Thats actually really smart, im surprised non of the bootleggers have done that
This comes with the defense bench (w)right?
All I need is an Edgeworth and holy fuck my dreams will come true.
I mean, I'd like all Phoenix Wright characters, but at minimum with Phoenix and Edgeworth I can have the coolest court battles posed on my shelf
as cool as the gurlukovich fig is, i really wish figma would have given us an mgs2 era raiden too
>>5901977
I thought that was announced
>>5901741
Season 2 already came out...
>>5902024
No it didn't you fucking retard
>>5902024
>he can't tell the difference between cour and season
>>5901796
ye
I only want Fran
>>5902009
You thought wrong
Got two Anti-Mage from Valve Store by accident, didn't see the car had one already (saved from other session) and it just arrived. Not sure if I should keep it or sell it
>>5902116
You're missing one more
>>5902078
I want Gant.
>>5901764
You say that like it's a bad thing.
I like it.
>>5902424
Quite the opposite. I must own one of each reissue otherwise my Smash display is incomplete.
>>5901796
>this comes with the defense bench right?
Considering this is a figma we're talking about, be prepared for the defense bench to be GSC webshop exclusive and a paper folding/cutout.
>>5902459
More like they'll use the bench being included as an excuse to price it at 9000 or so yen.
8500 if they're being generous.
>>5901695
I feel like they could still make them. If season 2 is a success. If not, a custom Historia is not farfetched. Plenty of pieces to work with
>>5901796
>no coffeed face
Do you think they will make a Dark Magician figma to go with Yugi and DMG?
>>5902078
they need to change the joint system or molding or something for when they make characters in suit jackets.
They always end up having a gap between the bicep and forearm that just stands out to me.
except for Roger Smith
This is a pretty nice PO bonus. I can see it being utilized on other figures.
If only she weren't so damn expensive.
>>5902874
>If only she weren't so damn expensive.
Forreal. That price is ridiculous.
>>5901659
Yup. I'd also take Hange
Is the Pyramid Head figma any good?
>>5903144
Yep
Hell of a paint job, same with the bubble head nurse
>>5903144
Definitely.
>>5901689
her head could come with a hoodie piece that you can just put around the neck like Mikasa's scarf.
>>5903382
>>5903414
Thanks, man. I liked the way you posed him with the nurse. One last question, is the meaty part under the pyramid shiny like the pic related or did this person customise his figure cuz it looks really cool.
>>5903437
From what I remember it's naturally shiny.
>>5903437
Mine looks shiny. Looks really disgusting. Freeing did an absolutely amazing work with the paint job.
https://twitter.com/gsc_kahotan/status/774371577815191552
Winning Snow Miku 2017 design will be getting a figma.
>>5903532
Thank god it's one of the ones I really liked.
>>5903532
Huh. I don't need another miku ... do I?
>>5903532
I swear, it's always either a snow or sports Miku.
>>5903754
miku doesn't do stage singing anymore, it's all fashion and being race queen for her now, she's even in an ad for beauty products
>>5903754
For figma, yes. She gets other styles for other figures. I would love a Magical Mirai 2016 figma.
>>5903144
Awesome figma, even better when they are paired up. This pic I took a while back.
>>5903777
Wth you talking about? Even if it's not in figma form Miku still gets lots of figures from different modules. I wish they made a sweet devil miku figma.
any news on Deku?
>>5903212
no its not the legs are really limited restricted for posing.
>>5904132
no and there won't be. you'll know when there's news because they won't stop talking about it in the thread.
>>5904123
Buy the RAH
>>5904272
go back to revoltech general, thanks
>>5904503
I prefer 1/12th scale
>>5904555
>Wanting leg articulation means you come from the Revo General.
This is what /toy/ has become.
>>5904641
but it does have leg articulation. just not amazing leg articulation, because that was sacraficed to make it not look like shit. (like revos do)
Stop right there fucko, I see what you're trying to do. There will NOT be a fucking stupid brand war in this thread. No more replies.
Does anyone deliberately look for bootlegs as parts for customs?
>>5904657
you should ask the custom general
>They will never re-release Figma GnP Yukari
>>5904645
he cant even crouch, his stupid skirt is too tight to do anything but the most basic of poses. I own him so I KNOW.
>>5904683
pyramid never crouched ever, no one would ever have him in a crouching pose, and i too own him
Got Mikasa on the way, my first figma.
What should I expect, lads?
>>5904731
A nice sculpt and a lot more accessories than most figmas get. It's a nice piece of work, i've got the Levi and even with the complications of the fucking ropes and the wobbly blades if you like the character atleast you'll have something nice of a character you like.
>>5904731
Is the brown skirt thing removable?
>>5904731
don't take pics on a high ledge.
>>5904769
kek, does that anon still exist?
>>5904683
>I own him so I KNOW.
Congratulations. So does 80% of this thread.
Got the LBW Figma today, the regular version. Is it supposed to come with the wall merged Link? It's pictured on the box and on the instructions but I can't find the piece anywhere.
>>5904840
Behind the inside backing
>>5904850
Thanks senpai. What an odd place to put it.
>>5904650
>No more replies.
Oh?
I bet you will. Faggots like you can't help wanting get the last word in.
>>5904853
Not really, no. It's the most logical place to keep it protected.
>>5904727
but isnt half the fun of owning these figures of getting them to do things they wouldn't normally do?
>>5904917
Um, no?
>>5904917
For some people, yeah, but for a character like Pyramid Head? I'm not gonna be going on too many wacky adventures with him and some odd friends. He's gonna walk around and be a menacing presence, and the figma does so fine in that regard.
First bad or worst yet racing Miku?
>>5904940
I think you mean best. Those colors are fuckin dope brah
>>5904957
Maybe on the stockings/boots. But the gloves are just one dull tone (not counting the rainbow) which makes it look a bit unfinished considering that both hair and boots seem to have more going on. Should've had some details at least. And compared to the other designs it's overall really not anything spectacular. Faceplates are also less than great imo.
>>5904957
I was literally saying the exact same thing in my head when I saw his post and the picture.
>>5904940
Why does she have an umbrella?
>>5904731
>what should I expect
Virtually no torso articulation. Seriously kills a lot of dynamic posing. Honestly wish we'd gotten a Revo line instead.
>>5904925
you'll never be able to do this kick ass pose with those standards.
>>5905055
To catch all the shade people throw at her.
speaking of Pyramid head is there any chance we may get some color variants of him? I'm not a fan of any of the silent hill games after 4 and I have not read any of the books but I really like the look of the white hunter pyramid head and would love figma to do a repaint for that.
>>5905117
Considering how poorly him and the nurse sold, I wouldn't count on it.
>>5905121
Pyamid Head sold well enough to get a re-release, but yes, the second release didn't sell as well (and the Nurse sold horribly).
>>5905128
strange wonder why the nurse wasn't so hot, I myself only bought Pyramid Head although I thought the nurse would have problems holding any pose with those delicate feet of hers.
>>5905144
I never had any issues getting the Nurse to stand; she's got a good ankle range. As for why she didn't do so well, I guess there just isn't that much overlap between horror figure fans and import figure buyers. Pyramid Head did well at first because he's iconic enough that even many people who've never played SH2 recognize him, but once you start getting into more niche territory, demand drops.
>>5904919
Stop collecting toys.
>>5905099
Not the anon you're replying to but are you saying this figure is not worth getting just because he can't crouch?
>>5905128
>and the Nurse sold horribly
Really? Is there a place where we can see figma sales?
>>5905290
No, but when you see one pop up on sales as often as the Nurse did you realize it didn't sell well. You can still find one for a bit less than MSRP, for example.

Fucks sake Japan, you fucking retards.
>>5905442
Kage when?
>>5905495
You are aware that Japanese people aren't some hivemind, right?
>>5905495
I mean any pose by that design is going to look like dogshit compared to any other figma with modern styling.
>>5901336
This guy
>>5905163
I passed up on her because the choice was either her or pyramid head..I think that may have been her primary reason for not selling hot. If it was during a busy season she might not have been someone's grail like he was.
Any news on figma deadpool??
Got my Gurlo soldiers, absolutely loving them. Also made me realize that my monitor is super nasty.
>>5905672
nope, maybe we will see at best next wonfes in february
>>5905678
Oh shit... any way to remove that vest cause the rest of that look is perfect.
>>5905689
Nah, there's only lanky blank brown body underneath the vest
>>5905442
It's bare than enough to fit in a regular figma box, why the fuck does it need the bigger sized one?
>>5905706
>>5905722
indeed, max factory and kaiyodo are shaping a pretty nice sega classics collection, with figma ulala and vulcanlog beat on the works, makes me hope we can see other sega characters in figure form soon, an arle would be neat
>>5903414
What is the winged creature in the background?
>>5905751
Figma Giant God Warrior
>>5905678
I bought two of them but how can you absolutely love them when the design of the feet severely limits the articulation preventing any kind of basic bend poses in the leg like that mgs3 Snake picture you have in the background
>>5905700
can we see?
>>5905442
I really hope we get more early 3D styled figures from other games. It's probably my favorite retro gaming style, more than pixels.
>>5906074
house of the dead 1 and 2 in that style would be my top want. Always loved the look of those zombies.
>>5905442
This is shit.
I meant, SHIT. You know, like poo, from bowel kind of shit.
Glad I'm not into polygon shit. But I still wonder who buy this shit??
>>5906238
People who enjoy classic video games
>>5906241
Well don't count me in coz I wouldn't enjoy them.
>>5904731
A great figure and desk. mate. I personally do not have any issues with wobbling blades or tangles. My favorite figma from my collection, good amount of accessories as well compared to recent offerings.
Does anyone know if there were any bootlegs of figma Yui Takamura?
>>5906306
your loss
>>5906306
Literally nobody cares if you wouldn't enjoy them.
>>5906450
Any info, please?
>>5906843
There's no warning about bootlegs of her on My Figure Collection, so I guess there are none.

Thank you for placing an order with AmiAmi.
We are e-mailing you with regards to your account and recent order cancellations.
We are a store with a clearly stated policy of not accepting requests for order cancellation, and for every order you have placed we have promptly sent an invoice for payment. When we received neither payment nor communication by the noted deadline we still did not cancel your order but instead sent you another invoice as a reminder and waited for a response. Nevertheless we have received neither payment nor communication from you for this order and many others. As such, these unpaid orders have become cancelled orders. Currently, this situation has continued to the point where it has become untenable for our store and we cannot continue to do business with you if this situation is not rectified.
As we are sure you are aware, the orders you have placed and not claimed have caused our stock-on-hand to increase beyond our projected levels, thus increasing our risk of carrying unsold product and also prevented other customers from purchasing the items that have been ordered to your account. At its current level, this is causing actual damage to our business.
Please consider this notice as your final warning. Any further unpaid order cancellations or cancellation requests from this account will leave our store with no other option than to cancel all your orders and permanently close your account.
We ask for your understanding and cooperation with regards to these policies.
Best regards,
AmiAmi
>>5907572
Yes. It's called a final warning
>>5908012
I thought the M4 was going to be a kit included
>>5908147
They're scathing but honest and right. Sounds like you need to quit being a flaky bitch. Stop ordering things if you can't pay for them.
>>5908164
That's fair, just wasn't expecting it. They already send you warnings so I figured they would just close it after a certain number.
I've since switched to HLJ because I like being able to cancel
>>5908162
The M4 will be included but I think it's going to be a pre-assembled kit.
>>5908215
>The 'Little Armory' M4A1 Type runner kit is included in a limited model that has earth-colored optional parts.
>>5908233
The facesculpt looks bad. Like those derp face anime girls with wide space between the eyes.
The old one was better. Please tell me they gonna release the old promo one.
>>5908271
>>5902078
I really hope the final version looks better than that.
I dunno, he kinda... lacks depth. Maybe they should've used the look he had in AA5 i dunno.
I just hope we get a Maya out of this. Mia would probably be asking for too much but Maya's a necessary character/
>>5902078
He didn't look good on the unpainted prototype, and he doesn't look good here either.
HOPEFULLY, the final product will look better. I'm gonna buy him either way.
>>5908272
I'm sorry.
>>5908285
I'm in the same boat anon. It looks underwelming but I need an articulated Phoenix Wright in my collection.
>>5908147
Sounds like your being a shit customer, hope you get banned.
anyone else get a payment request for the archetypes? Did they fuck up or is it really coming out a month early?
>>5908388
I'm not disputing that bud
If anyone is interested this was after ~7 unpaid orders sprinkled in between paid ones
>>5908477
They aren't shipping out for another two days I thought?
>>5908285
Is this based on the anime? The sculpt is weirdly rectangular and lacks any of the personality from the games.
>>5906786
You literally cared enough to tell him nobody cares.
Ipso facto, you care.
Case dismissed.
>>5908487
Not sure, doesn't look like it.
I wish it was based on the art of Kazuya Nuri
>>5908495
If that's how you want to justify nobody caring about what you want, then sure.
>>5908487
>Is this based on the anime?
Not at all, just compare the length of his hair spikes.
>>5908216
Nvm that part on top with the accessories list confused me on amiami; it says (PS made) which made me think that's how they abbreviate pre-assembled. Pic also shows a black kit behind the figure which is most likely the M4A1.
Guys, should i pay scalper prices for the kirito figma with the bonus or should i wait till another one pops on mandarake? i literally check everyday ugh
>>5908853
Mandarake. You can also check out AmiAmi preowned and get lucky that way.
>>5908771
>dull as shit skin tone
They really need to learn how to use paint for flesh or at least fucking add shading instead of just using bland plastic.
>>5908272
Not everyone has shit taste in media
Take yer bets! Which God Hand will be the next one up for pre-order!?
>>5908771
Can someone explain to me Japan's fascination with acrylic character cutouts with keychain holes on the top?
>>5909009
They hang them on their bags, phones, keys, everything.
>>5908147
Seems perfectly reasonable because you are being a little bitch ass cunt about it instead of straight up warning them in advance (preferably months in advance) that you don't want the shit anymore so they can shift the order to someone else instead of ordering a surplus of stock.
You know when I cancel something? When the final product is a total piece of shit that looks nothing like what was advertised and so AmiAmi understands my reluctance to pay for it. I've gotten stern e-mails from them but they were also understanding of why I cancelled.
>>5909008
My money is on Void
>>5908771
SOON

Miyo Asato has pale skin tone but I know what you mean. Some blushes here and there would be nice to make her not look like a corpse.

I see Chinese sweat shop, with yellow WD40 ver and old molding machine plus stopper cardboard at bottom, secured by plastic strings.
Remind me why we are paying over 5000 jpy average per figure.
I rather pay 20k jpy, if I can see sweaty Nippon busty school girl running a hi-tech 4D machinery & she's half covered with slimey, gooey wasabi oil. Might as well supply us her saliva in a small reseable package as GSC online preorder bonus.

>>5909245
Can we just get a figure of the oiled up sweaty busty school girl. Give her cast of clothes also please. Like the Queens blade figures
>>5908271
Meiko, a Vocaloid character. I want her just to repaint her hair black to be Makoto Kikuchi.

For the record, they get on your case eventually whether you give them notice or not, I've been shopping there for about 5 years and have gradually made the switch to hlj for the exact reason you specified.
>>5909414
>Not sure why you are so upset, AmiAmi is a business not my dearest friend.
Someone has to be your dearest friend for you to not flake out on them? It's simple business etiquette they are asking for. If you want to pay more and get crappier packed boxes for the freedom to cancel then HLJ is the way to go. Make no mistake though, AmiAmi is still cheaper in most cases despite what others say. The savings you get justify the no cancel policy.
>>5909008
Fingers crossed
>>5909426
t. AmiAmi shill
I'm not saying their policy is unreasonable btw. I do however think it's hilarious that you seem so personally offended by my choice to flake out on them.
With how pre-order driven import figures are and with how often stuff is disappointing/not as advertised, the ability to cancel is well worth a few extra dollars imo.
>>5909567
>I'm an insufferable jackass and you must be a faggot for calling me out
The Reddit generation, ladies and gentlemen
>>5909573
I never disagreed with the policy or claimed I was in the right. not sure what you think you're calling me out on. I shared the email for informational purposes in case anyone was curious what happens if you miss too many orders.
Stay mad autismo.
>>5909683
If you think you're in the clear, why do you have to keep defending yourself?
Ignore the shitposters instead of feeding them exactly what they want.

>>5909716
It's hard anon, I'm used to this board actually having constructive discourse about toys rather than /v/ tier shitposting
>>5909567
>With how pre-order driven import figures are and with how often stuff is disappointing/not as advertised, the ability to cancel is well worth a few extra dollars imo.
I can count the number of disappointing figures that widely depart from prototype shots on one hand. Hell, I can name them right now. Figma Snake's face, figma Tsugumori looking like an unpainted kit, figma Tekkaman looking blah, Composite Ver Ka Gurren Laggan losing metallic paint job and a few of those MoMo figures with different finishes/shades of color. I guess a few AGP also qualify for having chunky paint in the hair rather than being smooth like figma but the prototypes never looked all that smooth either.
Outside of that any differences can usually be chalked up to loss of sharpness in sculpt due to change in materials to PVC from harder materials used on prototype. Or tiny little QC issues that can affect anything and are a total random chance sort of thing. Your problem is you are ordering out of hype then when the hype dies off you regret making the order because most figures come out very close to advertised. Then you just decide to let them hold your order for 14 days until they are forced to cancel it due to refusal to e-mail them.
As for store policies...AmiAmi will save anywhere from $2-8 per figure depending on the line, protects figures better in shipping and has a way better customer service policy regarding replacement parts, refunds, etc. All for the low low price of managing your hype and ordering only what you actually want.
>>5910021
>figma Tekkaman looking blah
What's so bad about it? I know about the pic of that one with the bad yellow paint app on the head, but mine looks fine.
Anyone remember when exactly the lucina re-release was? The August thread is kill. I'm probably going to pick her up from a stateside store, because all the prices I'm seeing are somehow cheaper than importing. I just want to know how long it'll probably be until they get stock.
>>5910745
it was the end of last month. like the 23rd or so.
You know
I know this isn't a figma, but I've come to ask since it's still a figure and the character is also in the figma line. Is this good at all?

Can anybody tell me? how much would you rate figma Kanzaki ranko from 1 to 10?

>>5911144

>>5911148
>>5911151
This seems like a pretty niche figure and I've never read a manga in my life but he seems like a cute robot boi so I might go for it anyway.
I'm glad Figma is reaching back and making figures of older 70's/80's properties like this, Sherlock Hound, Future Boy Conan, etc. I don't know exactly how popular these series are today but it's nice that they're still being given attention after so many years.
>>5909755
Yet your "constructive discourse" involves calling people names and using out of date memes, and generally acting like an ass, because YOU get called out for being an irresponsible brat.
Don't play that card you hypocrite. You knew your post bragging about getting told off by Amiami was going to cause a shitstorm, so don't claim that you wanted constructive discourse, once the shit starts flying. You're actually worse than those that just want to shitpost.
>>5911176
>I'm glad Figma is reaching back and making figures of older 70's/80's properties like this
Me too, I hope they tackle another classic characters like Harlock or Black Jack.
>>5911158
which new version? will there be a new ranko? because we already got rin, rika, mika etc. im worried about it
>>5911140
is she worth the asking price??
>>5911176
Bandai's doing the same with the Lupin stuff. At this rate we'll be seeing more 90s stuff not too far down the road. Would kill for a Shinji Ikari (I'll even take the plugsuit version at this point).
>>5911139
know nothing about the anime, I just interested in her umbrella and black overall color
>>5911148
Awesome, I love his bike. I hope he's not as tall as yusuke and onoda, so we can finally own a small one
>>5911202
>Bandai's doing the same with the Lupin stuff
That's because Lupin had a new series recently. It's a completely different case from figmas like future boy Conan, Sherlock or Tanaka, old characters from long finished shows.
I'm still pleasatly surprised that those exist, actually.
>>5911201
I got mine when she was released, so price wasn't an issue. Now, if Ranko is your grial, just get her. I would pay 5.5k -7k for getting her.
>>5911038
it's a 1/12 scale figure smart ass :^)

>>5911656
Makoto custom fodder
>>5911059
Probably 8.5~9/10.
One of my favorites. Pretty expressive, and comes with cool accessories. I just wish she had better articulation, but I guess that's just the dress. And maybe a closed parasol
>>5911675

10-10 because she has black panties on.

With the proper modification, 10/10

Didn't they just remove the dress?

>>5912142
Not sure what knd of reply you expected. Sure, he could've been a bit more polite,but his point remains: this isn't a general for any 1/12 scale figure, but for figmas. Your question is off-topic.
>>5912142
Go die, you entitled cockbag.
>using a nose on a smiley face
And you're a faggot too

Its cunts like you that makes /toy/ look bad. Replying to someone else politely doesnt make you a saint either, pretentious candyass.
So much hostility baka
>>5911965
perfect face expression for that black pantyyy pose
>>5912109
What changed from the first one? This one looks like it has bigger hips.
>>5912279
Seems like not much based on the sculpt alone. Although it looks like there's some minute differences in the patterns on her chest/torso.
>>5911077
She's got 10/10 hips, 10/10 ass, 10/10 titties, and 10/10 everything just everything.
Is amiami usually this late? I haven't ordered from them since last december.

Since they're making Nendo's for them do you guys think we'll ever get to see some Thunderbolt Fantasy figmas?

I was wondering that too. Although I should had gotten him when he first released. Didn't think he would sell out that fast.

I think this was made to act as a general release instead of some bundle deal like the last Kat was.

so will the windranger receive the same treatment? or is that just wishful thinking
>>5912680
>Projected Release Date: 2016
o_o !
>>5912739
Probably wishful thinking since I can see why she's released in that way versus Kat.
>>5911176
Maybe they'll get more into later 80s/90s stuff.
Just think of the possibilities! Dirty Pair would be fucking aces.
Is anyone else having trouble connecting to the amiami site?
>>5912799
Noups
>>5912805
I've tried accessing it on two different networks and so far nothing, it just doesn't connect to the server.
>>5911144
Seeing him as a preview at whichever wonfes it is really made me want to read the manga. I still have to but jeez do I want him.
>canceled 2 figmas just weeks from their release
>still not banned
All you have to do is take it like an honorabu samurai and they forgive you. Anyway what are the chances Shizuo and Izaya go up in price after they release? Their prices are kinda ridiculous and they hardly come with any accessories so I'm hoping they go down instead.
>>5912807
Goddamnit now I have a payment request and I can't get onto the site to pay them.
rip in peace my account ;_;7
>>5912740
Fuck my December order.
>>5912680
I sold my sp version last week. Hope it was the right thing to do. This new one looks better right?
HLJ is asking for payment for the 3A Guts. I totally forgot I even preordered the sucker, and now I'm wondering if I should do it...or just ignore it. My October order is around $300 worth of figmas, fug I don't know
>>5912932
>I sold my sp version last week
BLASPHEMY!!
How could you?!?!
>>5912925
Couldnt you make the pwyment some other time? Its working fine though. Maybe your area is blocking the site
Does anyone have experience with Kirin Hobby? Do they ship stuff out pretty fast?
Anyone got pictures of Nozomi?
>>5912137
maybe one day. But I think Idolmaster is a dead line sadly. There are a lot of girls I'd still like them to make.
I've owned and sold a lot of figmas. Owned more than I've sold by a long shot. But now I'm sort of thinking of rebuying a couple of the ones I've sold.
And there are some in my collection that I'd probably like to sell, but now I'm worried that I might miss those down the line, and try to rebuy those.
Anyone else deal with this or am I just crazy?
>pic related, one that I'm currently considering rebuying.
>>5913204
I've regretted every single figure i've sold in some form or another. Sometimes it was done because I was low on cash, sometimes it was done to clear out space and sometimes it was done because I convinced myself I didn't need or like the figure.
The thing about decisions is the mind is fluid...meaning what you feel one day might not necessarily apply another day. There are only a few I massively regret selling but yeah, I deal with it a lot.
>>5913109
They're really good. Pricey, but good.
>>5912142
>Its a 1/12 scale, and i asked politely
This still isn't the 1/12 scale general, fuckwad.
>>5913109
I pre ordered the 50th anniversary Ultraman from them and it still hasn't shipped out despite having been released last month. I'd imagine non pre orders wouldn't be that slow though
>>5913219
yeah makes sense. There's been a lot i've sold that I don't regret at all. It's just like two or three figmas. If that.
Most I've sold because I want room for other stuff or I feel like my collection is just getting too big.
Are any labrys owner here?
Cant decide, original or famitsu colour. 7000¥ vs 5000¥.
Original colour looks better imo, but 2k yen difference.
>>5913238
I've had both before, and I honestly preferred the Famitsu colors
>>5913238
Go with the color scheme you prefer. It's a pretty nice figure.
>>5901796
I'd buy it from the GSC shop if this face came as a bonus
>>5913111
any pose requests or something like that?
>>5913238
Famitsu is definitely my favorite but the skin tone did bother me initially when I choose either. Mostly around the leg area but the hair is really nice on hand and when displayed with the axe.
>>5913232
Email them and see what's up. Something I ordered that's non-Figma-related was supposed to ship yesterday but didn't.

Sory for bad egurishu, origatoshimas.
>>5912399
They really dropped the ball on that, such a missed opportunity.
>>5913238
I prefer the original actually. I used to have the famitsu as well but didn't like the beige colors so I sold her; didn't realize her price went down though. The only thing I liked about that version was the black uniform.
>>5914464
I WILL
>>5914637
The neck peg is surprisingly similar to the Figuarts one, so the Archtype can be used as superior counterpart for Body-chan.

9/10 honestly. Got her a few months back (around January/February) for pretty cheap compared to what she's going for on Mandarake.

Similar story with GuP Yukari (whom I got for 60$ shipped as well a couple months back through toylett or something). Sometimes, you gotta look beyond Manda in order to find some sick deals
>>5914795
Just shoot them an email to combine orders if you got payment request for the archetype:she. They want to do business with you only if you're willing to pay.

Or are boats taking too much priority?
>>5914637
hi. can you make a photo of figma body and some of your figma face parts (different) with a right white balance.
im aware that archetype is too pale and didnt colour match any other figma head even if i can swap it.
Hi guys. Got my "hands for guns" today, but it come with fixed at certain angles hand joints. Where i can buy spare hand joints and which is fit for sure?
>>5914637
Do they not realize this is the main reason most people would buy this? Why they do this
>>5915133
I just bought this too since I'm planning on buying guns for my figmoes.
The angled fixed joints are for pre 2.0 figmas(peg/peg & ball type hands). Afaik, I think GSC/MaxFac provides an extra spare wrist joint included post figma 199(It started with figma Miku 2.0). Only one I have that doesn't have an extra wrist joint is figma Sakura School version but I think the reason for the exclusion is because she has 2 spare forearms(for her roller skating gimmick) with wrist joint for each arms.
For what figma are you trying to replace the wrist joint? I haven't heard for a replacement made for those joints yet.
>>5915202
No more lewd figmoes I guess.
>>5914637
I don't see a problem here, really.
