Thank you for this thread anon!! I love all the Miku talk going on atm, I love Miku but I only just got my first figure of her last Christmas thanks to some friends and she is SO perfect and adorable.
Speaking of Miku, did you see the poll? Which one are you voting for? I really like number one, especially with the artist theme but the top hat looks like it would make the nendo too top heavy and not fun to pose. I really like three as well but there are merits to all of them. Ended up voting for six though.
No. 193764
>>193724I personally like 3 a lot because it has this mystic and dreamy quality to it that I rarely see in Miku figs. 6 is super cute too but I think it would look a bit samey to pre-existing designs of her. 4 is fluffy and cute but I have the same concern as you do for 1 for top heaviness

>>221291Favorite, as in favorite character? It's hard to say but I like Meta Knight, Kirby and King Dedede the most. Waddle Dees as a whole are an honorable mention.
If you mean favorite as in favorite merch, I would have to say I like figures more than plushes but my paper goods like my doujinshi and official artbooks are very dear to me too.
Finding Kirby merch in general, in the wild at stores is very rare so 98% of that stuff came from online purchases, Ebay and Zenmarket mostly.
Those shirts are something I managed to snag from GameStop but I seldom wear them because I have dogs and black fabric is like a magnetic to white fur. Though, to be honest, the shirts aren't really good quality the graphics began to chip just only after a few washes so keep them more as a decoration.
Thanks! Usually I wipe down my figurines with a anti-septic wipes and use a q-tip and and some antiseptic to clean more smaller crevices like Meta Knight's wings or the creases in the Danish figurine. As for plushes I clean them in the wash on delicate cycle with simple detergent and baking soda but absolutely no bleach. Let's just say, that is not my only Meta Knight plush kek. As for my paper goods, I'll wipe them down with an quick-drying antiseptic wipe if there's a smudge here and there but I've read them so much that they've began to wore down naturally and I accidentally ripped the informational sleeve that comes attached to the cover. As for my doujinshi, I keep them safe in their plastic covers, though admittedly I need to get new plastic sleeves for a few of them since they're starting to tear.
THAT'S ADORABLE NONA!!! It reminds me of the Light copy ability from Kirby's Adventure. It's a good catch, and looks really cute. How much was it?

>shirts aren't really good quality the graphics began to chipThat's too bad as I own a couple of graphic t-shirts that are admittedly pretty old
nearly 10 years old that have a bit of cracking on the graphics other then that it's still in good condition. Screen printed graphic t-shirts lasts a lot longer and I always try to purchase those if I can.
>I wipe down my figurines with a anti-septic wipes, wash on delicate cycle, not my only Meta Knight plush, paper goodsIt must have been horrible when you took out bleached Meta knight since there is no way to recover from the bleach. I'm a bit lazy and just wipe my figures down with a damp rag and then a dry one. With the paper goods have you ever thought about scanning them so that you'll have a digital backup? I know that they won't have the same feel as the physical ones however since doujins are pretty hard to replace if they get badly damaged.
I really like your collection, I try to always find something I can use since I have limited space in my bedroom as I'm trying to save up for a house.

>Screen printed graphic t-shirts lasts a lot longer and I always try to purchase those if I can.Will keep that in mind. I want to get wearable merchandise but I'm too anxious to wear them in case something happens.
>It must have been horrible when you took out bleached Meta knightIt was. It was if someone splashed him with white paint, and it technically is my fault for drinking coffee and accidentally spilling it on him. I've never thought to do that, I tend to use antiseptic because it removes germs and leaves a nice little shine on my figurines. As for scanning my books and doujins? Yes and no. I'd like to have a digital collection so I'm not on shaking-tier edge when reading them but the process of scanning doujins requires one to remove and take them apart which I could never do. I tried scanning one of them for a friend which involved me bending the spine for each page which caused these gross looking creases on the cover's spine area. If I could safely scan every of my doujins I'd do it. Thanks! I'd love to see yours! It's understandable, as long as you add to your collection sparingly and responsibly, my collection was made over the course of years!
Sounds like pretty good fines, I've always like mecha-like media so I'm all for Transformers. Super Star Ultra is one of my favorites.

>Did you see they're releasing a tsurumi kitty?I have seen it! I totally plan on getting him. Maybe Usami too for how cute he is. I hope they will make a Tsurumi nendo or little figure one day like the little sega figs Ogata and Sugimoto are getting soon.

I often don't buy some merch I like simply because I have no space to display it. And I don't want to hoard it in some package or something or have too much on my shelves since that looks bad too.
The only thing I can recommend is to re-arranging stuff you have attached to the walls to install some additional shelves wherever you can make some space for them. But I have a lot of animal skulls, paintings and weapons on my walls so I can only do so much.

My chronicle cover girl figure came in today! She's very cute but the pieces tend to fall off and the base is sadly just hollowed out cheap plastic, so she doesn't stand that well on it.

Will look for him) and both of these plushies. I also want Asirpa, but I think I'll get her later. I couldn't preorder the Chokonose figures because there isn't any store that ship it to my country. Also the nemutan and the other Sega chibi ones when they are available.
I also ordered a bunch of the mangas. The only downside is that everything I ordered is being literally shipped, so God knows when it's arrive.

The hairline on Ogata doesn't bother me at all, but I can see how it can be bothersome to some. My only complaint for these is that I wish the hat was removable! It would be adorable.
I personally don't like the coro Ogata plushie, which is a shame cause I think everyone else is pretty cute.
My most anticipated ones are the Chokonose Sega ones though, I love my nendo and all, but damn, I want their real proportions! Hopefully there'll be more to come.

>>246198For 1st hand stuff, I have used these (along with amiami) and had no problems.
https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/https://www.cdjapan.co.jp/ (despite its name, it also sells fugures and artbooks)
For 2nd hand, if you dont want to deal with proxies use these:
https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/?lang=en (super good deals, but sometimes the shipping can kill you. A bit tricky to order more than 1 thing too)
https://myfigurecollection.net/ (useful for anything related to figurea tbh You will need an account for this, but when you wishlist something it will notify you when someone is selling it thru their site)
And if you dont mid use proxies, these (remember you have to search using the japanese name of whatever you want)
https://jp.mercari.com/ (cool thing about this one is that sometimes people put more than 1 thing on their listing)
https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/ (if this site is blocked on your country, download opera + set its free vpn to asia)
https://www.suruga-ya.jp/ (less active that the previous 2, but is the cheapest one, i almost always buy from here)
And about which proxy to use, its better if you look into that yourself to check which is the cheapest for you.
I'm from EU and when buying in bulk Japan Rabbit is the cheapest for me (plus theyre amazing at fitting everything on small boxes).
When buying a single thing, Buyee may be cheaper if you get one of their discounts (they got TONS of dumb taxes, even an obligatory one for "we check if your items arrived on the warehouse :)" and for putting more than 1 item on a box, that's why I mention the discounts, keep an eye on them. Also their boxes are stupidity big kek)
There are other proxies like Zenmarket, but I havent personally used them.
Also never buy from amazon or ebay. In general never buy from western 2nd hand shops unless theyre like MFC where only collectors use them. GSC has a list of partnered shops and retailers, you can check it to see if you're lucky there's one near you.
No. 246308
>>246302I'm not a fan of them either, but at least they're hand-painted, have some effort put onto their designs and can move and have accesories. And we dont have nendoroids recreating a murdered girl naked.
I find it cute when people give nendos those tiny doll bodies so they don't look like littlest pet shops though. My current collection consist on 2 so far and I don't think it will grow more anytime soon.

Didn't want to get the cats first but then I bought Ogata regardless because some feelings told me so. Almost forgot but I will try to get Tsurumi too. Pre-ordered the chokonose figs as well. I hope you will find a place that ships them to your country.
After seeing so many cute tweets I am now tempted to get the plushies as well.
Feel free to post about your nemutan pre-orders whenever they will be available anon. I want them too but always forget to look for them.
>I feel kinda bad for consooming so much, but I love these series so much, it brings me joy and I wanna have my husbandos closer while supporting it.I think so too because I usually don't spend much besides fancy food, but if you enjoy it then it's right. Others spend tons of money with cars or clubs, concerts and other social events or buy 200 euro clothes they never wear, you shouldn't feel bad for getting figs and keychains of characters that make you happy that you can even enjoy everyday when you look at them or walk around with them.
>>246104Are there other Ogata plushies around? I remember seeing at least two (not including the corocot or catlike plushies) and a promo artwork with one for him, Tsukishima and Koito where I don't know if it's the Ogata above or yet another plushy.

>>251551It depends on what you want the figure for and your preferred aesthetic, but for me it's 100% figma. They're WAY more posable, don't look as cookie-cutter as nendoroids and the material figmas are made of feel better to the touch (nendos feel like hard plastic while figmas are more soft). I used to think they were too small, but one day I bought one because it was dirt cheap and now I'm obsessed kek.
Sadly figmas are stupidly expensive now, specially if you're from europe (€65-100 base price and then an extra €40 for shiping and customs)….

Long shot, but is any spanish nona who have bought a scale figure in the past year or so over here?
I haven't ordered any since the new customs change, but I was thinking that since they count the shipping price for IVA and customs (is that even legal) that means every scale we buy will surpass the 150€ limit, meaning we will have to pay for customs duties.
Yesterday I ended up on a forum and saw they charged this girl 90€ of customs for a 200€ figure on top of IVA, handling, and all the stupid fees Correos makes up for stealing us. So I would like to hear other experiences, I havent been able to find much.
That message made me a bit scared of buying new scales, I already found some EU-based shops for preorders, but unfortunately most of the figures I want are old-ish and almost no one in EU sells them for decent prices, if they sell at all…
I dont want to spent +100€ on top of an already expensive shipping and expensive figure, everything ends up x3 the price….

>>253344i am not from spain but eufag too, and can tell similar thing have happened to me. i paid 90$ for an item from japan including shipping, and somehow i got charged 80$ customs, but that also could be bcz of DHL stuff. i hope you will find a good eu-based store nonna, the ones i see kept selling the figma i wanted for 100$ that i went 'yolo' and have ordered it from japan with a lot lower price, hoping the customs won't bite my ass this time.

I fucking HATE costums because the whole point of them is to force people to buy the respective product from their own country, which I would do if they had it which is never the case. I think customs for products that do not exist in your country shouldn't exist on principle. Use that for cigarettes and all that shit that is cheaper elsewhere but available everywhere.

>>246300. I'm a poorfag too and even with proxy taxes it often ends up being cheaper than buying from western sites (plus you can always add one or two acrylic charms or something for like $3 to make more of the package without adding more taxes), the 2nd hand shops I linked are pretty much the only way I have to buy merch because it's cheap.
I noticed these shops are emptier during nov-dec due to everyone looking for gifts, but start to fill up again on feb-march and july-aug.
Also you got so lucky finding that figma for $45, the retail/pre order price for figmas now is $80-110. Wishing you luck finding the youtuber merch too! Is she a vtuber? I don't know much about that, but I remember how the shark girl nendo got sold out minutes after orders opened…

>>261631Don't worry about customs for nendos and other smaller stuff, it's just VAT (so no more than €20 usually) what you have to pay when it arrives because thy're cheap.
It depends on where you live, but look up the price limit for customs on your country. Where I live it's just €150 so buying scales is imposible since it counts the shipping price too, but for smaller stuff there's no problem.

Almost, because customs got her and the delivery guy only accepts cash. Yeah mate, you have to come back tomorrow. Why the hell can't I pay customs with my card?!

No. 279407
>>279392I think it's the speed and amount of figures being produced, especially since 2020 (tons of people jumped onto the hobby/anime during the pandemic). They either don't have the time to quality check correctly, decide to sell ones with minor paint flaws to save money or both. Another nendo I bought recently also had miss-placed paint, and looks like I was one of the lucky ones because lots of people received him without one of his small accessories.
I’m honestly scared of buying figmas made after 2016 considering their current price is almost the same as a scale along with the horror tales of them breaking after doing as much as breathing near them. I don’t know what goes over Max Factory’s mind now, the old ones had no flaws and are so resistant

1 and 2 are pretty cute (and the cheese themw on 2 surprised me, most people go for pastries when they have to create food-themed design) but I'm unsure how well they will perform as articulated figures.

I'm so happy I was able to get a lot of my most sought after merch, and for a decent price too. On ebay, a lot of merch is scalped to hell and back and would be exorbitantly priced but I managed to get all of this for a low low $70, though shipping boost that price up to $95. I want to get some Dreamy Gear merchandise next. I'm planning to start building an itabag soon! I think what I love most out of my little haul were the chokkori-san plushes and the 25th Anniversary badges. I love the chokkori-san plushes, they're small and super adorable. They sort of remind me of those K-pop baby doll plushes. The stitching is okay, the choices of fabric are nice, and I love the use of embroidery for the faces and details such as Meta Knight's spikes on his mask. Admittedly I do not like how they did Dedede's crown. The little egg like thingy is just a peice of fabric with two stiches connecting it to the crown and it's a completely different fabric than the rim. Actually, there's a lot of loose stitching and thread on the plushes which I found odd. I kind of wish they just made that part an actual sewn on item than just a flat peice. I also do not like that his hat isn't filled with something so it kind of droops and folds into itself, luckily I was able to fix this by stuffing some gauze into his hat. I also love that their rears are filled with some sort of bead or beanbag stuff so they have heavy rumps that allow them to sit up. I definitely plan to take lots of photo shoots of them.

It's surprisingly good and the way each character is written and interacts with each other is quite in character, the plot is fun too and I like the subtle theme of classism and how the rich will do anything to become richer at the expense of those weaker than them.

>>291099No, they're not being released outside of Japan, France and Korea but so far, 20 of the light novels have been translated and more are being translated as I type this. Here's a link to a master post of translation.
https://nyaagolor.tumblr.com/post/653089595149434880/kirby-novel-translations-masterpostIt's unfortunate but you can only read them on tumblr. The novels are amazing for character interaction, and a lot of them are very interesting and have a variety of themes and plots. If you read them, tell me what you think. Though, to keep in mind the Light Novels' lore and canon aren't a 1:1 to the game's canon and lore but the light novels do take place in the game universe which I like! I don't mind either, personally, I'd like the rubber keychains since they have the characters on them but I love the metal key-shaped and keychains too. Oh, the metal keychains have variants of all the main characters I'm sure.

Thanks a lots for the link, I will start reading when I have time! Different adaptations having their own lore/spin to the story makes them greater imo. I used to read one of the mangas over tumblr too (the one where Marx got hands) and it was fun.

I have pretty much ghosted this website and only come back to lurk and bitch when I have dumb questions. Thank you to the gracious anon who sent me to this thread after I used the consoomer one. But to get to the point I want this figure and I want this figure bad. There are 4/5 sites that offer it, and eventually, after not being sure which to choose I settled on FavorGK being the most reliable one. Can anons here give their opinions and advice here? Do you have any experience with any of the sites offering him? Is he even worth it considering he's gonna be fragile as hell apparently, and do you guys have experience with these kinds of resin figures? I don't know anons.

also regarding the price, if i had the chance to get a 1/6 resin figure of (one of) my favourite characters, i would definitely order it for that amount. at this point that's less than two 1/8 scales kek

Dolls made for a collectors market are usually priced like this because the clothes and hair is a higher quality than playline dolls. The price also takes the designer into consideration and of course some of the price is also due to the brand you are buying.
I don't know anything about this doll in particular but I have seen some similar collectors vinyl doll that are released in a limited run. THe creator only sells them at cons or has short ordering periods on a webstore that sometimes doesn't allow international shipping

>>307210I see both variants pop up relatively often for cheap, so don't let FOMO get the better of you. I'm surprised the figures of that series are so cheap, it's probably because not many people have heard of it but the designs are very pretty and I could see those aesthetic tiktokers fighting for them. Hope it stays that way.
>>308842Customs no, VAT yes; right now GSC EU is kind of a scam. The shipping fluctuates between figures as well so you will end up paying the same (or in most cases, more) as GSC Global. The figure pricing is the same as if you put your currency on Global so there isn't any discount. The only times it could be used for is for scale figures since you won't have to pay customs, but I haven't checked (I don't know how much the shipping would be either) and I wouldn't be surprised if sites that undervalue like Solaris or Hobby Genki end up cheaper.
It's a shame honestly, if we still have to pay VAT why even bother? We have to pay 1/4 of the package value over here and it was my (and many others') main gripe when importing stuff. At least I hope they do disccounts and special packages like they do in the US Store.

You can try looking them up on places like Mandarake and AmiAmi since they have global shipping. Mercari and Suruga are second-hand shops and they have good deals as well, it's where I usually shop at. You will need a proxy for the last 2 though, I usually use ZenMarket because it has the cheapest fees (unless you buy +11 items, then Neokyo is cheaper) and are IOSS so you can pay VAT/import taxes with them and skip the extra fees carriers tend to ask.

>You have such exquisite taste in grails by the way!Thanks! The only ones I think I'll have a relative chance at getting is the Rozen maiden GK (I see it go up a fair amount), The Suzalulu figure and the edgy Aoba.

Decided to make one for "things I don't have yet, but I want the most." Out of these I have only 1 on pre-order, the others are pipe dreams or unreleased… That Princess Tutu GK is my ultimate grail at the moment though. The MadoHomu one has a prepainted release but I didn't like it as much, so I want the GK specifically.

>HOLY HELL and she's not a garage kit even?? That's prepainted??Yeah she got a prepainted release, I think it was a really small amount though so she's really rare as both a garage kit and prepainted figure.

How do you budget a ~3k dollar (with luck and not including EU taxes + shipping) life-sized figure, I don't even have anywhere to display her (my house is very sunny, I can hardly display the few small figures I own).
I guess she will release in around 2025, so I got around 2 years to save up, but still… I'm thankful my hobbies are cheap so I save up for dumb things kek I was sad to see they cancelled her 1/2.5 scale, so I will try to grab this one. Can't wait to sew her silly clothes.
No. 322423
>>322416autistic answer incoming but
Double-down on the scrimping and saving for those 2 years as well, and save enough to get a bigger place (for all your figures' sakes) and/or get her into a dark and temperature-controlled storage unit in the next two years's time, and then take more years after that to save for a different place to live all together?
Maybe your other hobbies are cheap but what about your daily consumables expenses? Food, utilities, even stuff like shampoo and dish soap? etc. Would you be in an okay position if their price inflated by x y or z percent? Think in 2025 terms rather than 2023 terms.
Good luck but do consider the taxes and shipping. They'll be crazy without a doubt.
No. 322430
>>322423Autistic answer apreciated.
Yeah the cheap hobby part was mostly a "I'm glad I don't have any expense outside rent/daily utilities". About space, I live on rent since I'm single so I can't own a house yet, depending on my luck I may or may not live on a bigger place in the next 2 years hahah…
I technically have the money already thanks to savings, but I prefer to not touch that. I easily can see her being +5k euro after shipping and taxes, I will try to convince my local shop to order her for me so I can pay a fixed amount with today's rate (or at least paying in installments).

>>334838The figure market has changed lots in the past few years. There was a boom in collectors during 2020 thanks to the pandemic and tiktok, which increassed the demand to an absurd level (you can still feel their impact on the aftermarket of some "animecore" figures). But now most of the new collectors are leaving the hobby, old ones don't preorder much and sell big parts of their stuff due to the economy and figure prices being x2-3 more expensive compared to just 2019 (it kind of gets cancelled thanks to the current exchange rate though), 17k being a normal price for a simple 1/7. Just the other week I paid 33k for a 1/6, that used to be the price of 1/4s…..
Combine all of this and you get companies producing on "boom" levels while the demand isn't that much anymore. Even sought-after figures end up gathering dust on shops' shelves for months. Now people often simply wait to the figure to bin and buy it at a cheaper price, preordering is pretty much seen as a luxury price you're willing to pay to secure the figure and have it on your hands as soon as posible.
There's even a conspiracy theory about companies inflating the release price as much as they can & then lowering it to what would be the normal price when it bins, that way they max their profit on preorders but still make gains on the "discounted" bin price kek

No. 334859
>>334850To be fair the quality in figures has made a gigantic leap honestly, if they were a big heavier there are prize figures that rival scales sans the shading (and they've started to shade some, I feel the gap will be less and less each year) and the exchange rate smoothes things out, the usual exchange was 100 yen = 1 dollar, so a 12k yen figures costed you $110, but since last year the same $110 pays you a 18k yen pricetag because the yen is so low, so in a way it makes sense, the price hasn't changed that much.
Still, the shipping has increased tons, for us eurofags we have to pay an absurd amount of VAT and companies are getting more greedy, raising the prices for way above the exchange rate compensation + the costy materials. Just looked up the price of my favorite 1/6, bought her from Alter in 2012 for around €90 (9,800k yen retail price). Nowadays, those €90 would have bought me a 14k yen pricetag, wich is the price of…. a figma with shipping.
It's sad, but at least I'm not into 90% of the gatcha games & western shit they keep releasing nowadays so my wallet doesn't cry too much; nowadays I mostly just lurk to buy old figures I missed.

>>395298There are a lot of options for custom Nendoroids rather than waiting for a new and expensive preorder. Imo you're better off just buying the gun piece by itself secondhand or finding a similar one on Etsy if you only want the gun. They sell blank Nendoroid doll kits(picrel) but the bodies are more articulated than the figures and they wear different clothing. (Obitsu 11 size)
Either way I wipe with 100% acetone to remove the face paint. For the hair, again I'd recommend just buying pieces secondhand that look similar to what you want and modifying them instead of sculpting from nothing. I use apoxie sculpt, white primer, and miniature paint (like for Warhammer miniatures). And any random secondhand face that matches the skin color of the body will work because you're repainting it anyways. Like a $4 junk one or something. Good luck wih the custom.

>>395298Dropped image. There are other nendoroids with guns too. Unless you want his gun and outfit specifically, it may be cheaper to buy gun parts from somewhere like chibichopshop. Also, I doubt his hat is removable. This is another character from the series and the hat is attached to the head, so there's no head/hair underneath. Unless she has a shaved head too, then it probably works out.
No. 395334
>>395327Yeah its mostly because of the uniform. She wears a soviet russia inspired uniform and its the only nendo i could find that has a similar uniform style to what i want + comes with a gun. The star in the hat is literally perfect for that soviet aesthetic look.
>I doubt his hat is removableaw that sucks, but i could sculpt the hair under the hat.

I think this is the best thread to ask so I will. I had pre-ordered this figurine(yes I'm a spongebobfag) and while I really like it, it seems like it was put together lazily and has some imperfections that are lowkey unacceptable. Does any nonna know if this is typical of youtooz or did I get a bad batch? I'm also in Europe and go this from a reseller in my country and Idk if there's any way of refund
No. 397351
>>397334I don't own any Youtooz figure, but the rule of the thumb is that western companies/brand make sloppy figures most of the time (some better than others, but even expensive "statues" aren't on the same level as JP companies), be it the materials or QC so I'm not surprised.
If the damage/quality check errors were undisclosed in the ad, try telling the seller so you can get a refund.

No. 402949
>>402947It makes sense, they're passion projects by artists instead of products made towards the masses that they have to design in very little time. It also helps the GK artists actually enjoy the source media and they can't sell IP figures for profit, so they're able to make complex desings (while companies try to simplify as much as they can because more complex=more costy).
The artists for comercial pre-painted figures not always enjoy whatever they're told to create, you can specially see this on Nendoroids/Figmas were it seems like whoever designed it just did a quick Google search or simply watched the first episode of the anime and wrote down the first 3 items that appear on it.

>AyaSince GSC has been making Nendoroids of RPG maker and indie game characters, I can see them making one for Aya too.
>MadotsukiJust like Aya, I think they would make Madotsuki as well but as best for last and Fangamer has been selling Yume Nikki merch so there might be a chance. I've been wanting a Nendoroid of her so bad with her knife, bike, flute, umbrella and pinching face. Sadly, I think Nendoroids nowadays have been pretty lackluster when it comes to accessories.

It sucks since I really like his character design and that he would make some really cool and gorgeous figures. Plus, it'll bring him some recognition .

If you really like the design of the figure just wait and buy it second hand. Usually you can get them a lot cheaper on the second hand japanese market, especially if it's a prize figure of something generic. I'm talking like 800-2500 yen.

>>409015Thing is i enjoyed strike witches even if it was shit (no, i'm not who you think i am). I liked everything besides the loli/booby fanservice which is 80% of the show so it's not like it means much and i like the character in question as well, but i refuse to give it money in any way if it makes sense. I also really like the girls designs and think they're cute besides the fact their ass is hanging out (lol) and picrel is another sw figure i'd like but there's not much beyond that since i don't collect nsfw figures of female characters

>>409008I'll just admire them though I wouldn't buy unless I really like the character, the design and look into its source material. This Sora and Kudryavka figure are super cute but I don't want to own any scroteshit coom garbage and would refuse to throw my money away on supporting them. Plus, I have a limited amount of space in my room so pretty much I ended up saving myself some money since most figures are scroteshit material anyways. I guess I would say the same with vubers too since they might quit/graduate or go downhill. This Korone figure is super cute too but I don't watch any of her content.

The first ever good-looking Youtoonz figures, never thought I would see the day I hope they make more like this, I'm tired of the usual bad western attempt at cute/kawaii style, it always looks so forced and fake.
I don't live in the US, so the $30 + shipping + taxes is too much for suck a tiny thing (that probably doesn't have a good QC), but I would like to get them one day.
>>413805Woah does he really only comes with a single accessory and extra faceplate? Glad the price reflects that, but that's a new low for Nendoroids. I wish they had given it more stuff, what a wasted opportunity (I wonder if they did it to release Nendoroid plus pieces for it in the future?)

Have any of your nonas been affected by the Global Freaks' closure? Looks like we got on our hands Nippon Yasan: EU edition.
I included a video with info about the wild ride, here's a summary of it with other info I gathered:
>One of the oldest and most famous EU figure shops, had competitive prices, points, free shipping, etc. Pleasant to work with in general
>Gets a new CEO
>Suddenly, preorders start to be delayed for months, even years with no communication
>This continues for the next 2 years, whenever you get your preorder or not was a raffle
>CEO makes tons of excuses, including "They robbed us an entire truck with merchandise :("
>Tsume, their partner/parent company, backed up the excuses, but then…
>People got worried, asked Tsume about the unfulfilled orders. Their response? "Yes, we got all the orders at our warehouse"
>Turns out the CEO spent the money on other matters (whenever they were related to the business or not, we aren't sure), and since he had no money left he couldn't pay Tsume most of the time, meaning Tsume didn't give them the figures to send to the customers.
>This continues, and yesterday suddently the pre-order section of the online shop closes, and soon after the order as well.
>Most employees get fired
>Physical shop gets closed for "remodeling"
>All mails about paid pre-orders get an automatic reply.
>CEO deleted all his social media, professional sites and ran away. No one knows where is he nor can contact him (bussiness and personal phones are off)
>Global Freaks doesnt allow signal payments, if you want to preorder you have to pay the full amount when you place the order
>So now we got people with up to €20,000 lost on preorders since GF sold resin statues as well
>A few "lucky" people got a voucher worth 80% of their preorder total, but with the physical shop closing next week (according to am employee), they have no idea if the stuff they redeemed will arrive.
>Banks can only fill a complaint
>PayPal can't help too much since they only protect you up to 6 months from the purchase and the orders with their payments where made over a year ago
>The 3 and half employers are left to clean the CEO's shit without guidance. They're trying their best, but with the company in bankruptcy they aren't able to do anything.
I has been a wild ride and ot all exploded just yesterday.
I feel I dodged a bullet there, they announced a Pop Up Parade I'm interested in, but these figures are too pricey for their size/quality and was considering ordering it from Global Freaks when the orders opened because they sell PuP for €40 (meanwhile buying from JP/other locak shops is €50-55, and I'm not paying that for a peize figure, even if he's gonna rise in the aftermarket like hell)
No. 421094
>>420995Damn another one gone… Ngl, I've never understand why people still buy from these types of shops(I do know why, european hell customs, not having to worry about currency changes, multiple ways of payment, not having money by the time the figure is released so you pay the moment you order, etc)
As a Latamfag, I would rather buy from a AmiAmi, Amazon JP(+ a japanese address), Good Smile or any japanese shop and pay customs than trust a shop from my country to complete my order. Maybe all the horror stories I read on MFC from 2012 and older got to me haha.
I do feel bad for Spain collectors tho, having thousands of euros lost forever when you were expecting a company to be competent and give you what you paid beforehand is hell.
No. 421181
>>421094For me it's because often for small things like prize figures and Nendoroids are cheaper to buy in local-ish shops than ordering directly from Japan (for scales, it's the opossite if you can evade taxes a bit). That shop sold worldiwide, unafortunaly there's lots of Latam peope affected as well.
To be honest if a shop has a good record it's ok to trust them as long as they don't force you to pay everything beforehand, though in the current economy I think it's better to wait until the figu rereleases and get it on stock, people are cutting on luxuries and that's why lots of these kind of niche shops are closing.

Any EU nonas over here who had luck undervaluing in Hobby Genki?
A preorder I paid last year is set to release this week, so I put a note under said order telling them to make the value in the custom invoice 23k yen or less. But I'm unsure if it will work as I already paid and they made an invoice (though I guess that invoice is just a formality/info for the buyer)
This is my first time buying anything that needs customs clearance, so I'm kinda scared (specially if they undervalue but somehow stills needs clearance as my postal works like a mafia, as I don't know the exact value they put on the invoice I might put the wrong one while filling papers and lose the package…)

They have been doing this for awhile now, make stuff more cheap to produce but keep increasing the prices because they still sell. E-Stream (I think that was the company) kickstarted the whole "expensive for the sake of it" trend to see how far they could push prices/quality and GSC followed them.

>>427437Sorry for double post, but no they won't as their public reasoning is "to be more eco-friendly" (obviously their actual one is to cut corners).
For cheaper Nendoroids, they're producing "Nendoroid Basic" (picrel, just the main figure with no accessories, extra arms or faceplates) and "Nendoroid Light" (same as before but without the Nendoroid functionality, just a Nendo-shapped pre painted figure). Both of them are retailing for 3.5k yen I think, but will probably increase like PuPs did.
Current Nendoroids are pretty much basic at this point, it feels they're laughing in our faces. The new boxes pretty much confirms this there's no space for accessories outside 2 arms, a leg and maybe a small item.

>>429524No problem nona, email used to be the way to go, but now you get much better results through the Discord tickets. If you have looked at posts on reddit for advice regarding downsizing, ignore them, as iirc the most popular guide is outdated. Most of the responses they give via email are just copy pasted, and you'll run the risk of them asking to charge a downsizing fee for the service, IF they don't just straight up refuse by claiming that they "already downsize". The discord staff are much more helpful and responsive.
Here's a template of what I'd always say in the ticket if you'd like to use it, it has always worked well for me -
Hi, I just submitted a consolidation request for package number #. I know that Buyee automatically downsizes packages, but items often still come packed in envelopes and such. Would it be possible for you to please downsize further than this by removing any extra packaging if there is any, such as envelopes, air bags, etc? Thank you so much!
>>429545>My god, do you need a fucking Discord to contact that proxy now!?You can still contact them via email, but to get any sort of helpful response you usually have to contact them via discord, yes. It is ridiculous, but unfortunately discord now seems to be the main recommended form of contact for a lot of proxies.
>And wild they still trow boxes on bigger boxesThey stopped keeping the actual boxes ever since June of last year, when they announced that "we now dispose of unnecessary original boxes, effectively downsizing the packages". The main problem now however, is that they store all items in the warehouse in envelopes, which most of the time they do NOT remove before putting everything into the box, picrel is an example some moid posted in the discord server. They also have a reputation for just packaging things inefficiently and using boxes that are too big. Personally I haven't had any problems with my packages, but I think it's only because I haven't ever shipped anything without asking them to downsize / remove extra shit first. Buyee used to be decent to use as long as you did this, as they regularly gave out 10-20% off coupons without any discount limit or minimum purchase price limit, which was better than the discounts that any other proxy offered. Ever since they recently stopped doing that though, Neokyo has definitely become the better choice by far.
No. 429566
>>429557Glad their Discord peers are responsive, but that's wild.
I used Buyee once around 2 years ago and never again. They gave out a 5k coupon for Mercari and since I had planned to buy my sister a Nendoroid whose 2nd hand price was around 10k, I took it without thinking. Bought it & a boxless small prize figure, and those free 5k got consumed entirely by their fees (iirc they even had a fee to check if your item had arrived), along with the biggest and most useless shipping, the nendoroid even got damaged.
I have used expensive proxies before (White/Japan Rabbit being the wrost offender) but even then their fees didn't accumulate to 5k for two items and their service was excellent.
Right now my main proxies are DeJapan (100y/item, but doesn't offer small packet air) for various purchases and Zenmarket for single purchases (500y/item, but can pay VAT thru them so that ends up being cheaper).
I have used Neokyo before, but I dislike the 3% fee payment method have and for some reason Suruga-ya packages take a whole month to arrive to them…?

To anyone with scales, how do they usually feel like?
Just bought my first one and I'm pretty dissapointed by how cheap the material feels, specially when she costed me 33k yen. It's the same as most of my prize figures.
It doesn't affect her scultping (she's a 10/10, her details are even better than the promo pics), she's made to be simply viewed from a shelf, thanks to how light she is she was super cheap to ship despite being a 1/6 and I guess it will help in preventing future leaning.
But it sucks to grab her and feel how hollow she is (I feel I could make music just by tapping her kek, it's insame), it removes a huge part of the luxury, for that price I expected more in that regard. Even my eldery father who knows nothing about figures went "Oh she's just cheap plastic" the second he picked her up.
Sculptor says she's mostly made with ABS to make her more lightweight for whatever reason, so I guess that's the issue, but I got mini figures that weight way more than her. I still love it to pieces and don't regret the purchase, but it was a letdown.

>>430554You can always order from a shop that doesn't include japanese tax (like Hobby Genki, but I'm sure there are more). His non-taxed prize is 17k, which is super good for a quality figure. I only own stuff from their Lucrea line, but I'm pretty happy with those.
"Scale" simply measures the "standard" proportions/size, not quality (Megahouse doesn't work with scale sizing usually). There are prize figures with scales as well, which confuses some people.

>>456124I don't know if that's the case for Bleach, but other popular series like One Piece, Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball and Digimon are stuck with shitty prize figures 95% of the time because the Copyright holders (usually Bandai, but that's not the case for all) refuse to give the license away so they can pocket all the merch money themselves. Bandai even refuses most Garage Kits proposals (mind you people sell them for a single day and in numbers not bigger than 10) because they don't want us to see we can have higher quality figures so we are forced to buy their slop.
In other cases it can be pettiness as well. For example KyoAni has banter with Good Smile, so every time one of their animes gets popular and GSC wants to ride the train, they have to pick the manga designs because KyoAni doesn't want to work with then kek.

>>463540Thanks anon. I already do Gunpla so I have most of those things, though I should really get a nail drill. I was thinking I'd use my dremel for sanding purposes but that's probably too rough come to think of it.
I want to make Duo Maxwell as Deathscythe Hell just like a Mecha Musume but male. I liked the pose of this Kyoko Sakura figure and her bangs are pretty similar to his, I was thinking of taking a Moemura braid and attaching both together with epoxy sculpt and then from there doing a lot of removing of parts and epoxy sculpting to get it looking more masculine, paint it over, and then put the Gunpla parts on. I've been making the Dragon Momoko Deathscythe Hell and it looks so good, especially the ribcage bit that made me think of what a Duo figurine with the ribcage would look like Mecha Danshi style.
The big downsides are how much sanding and sculpting I see being required. I'm also at a bit at a loss as for what to do with the helmet since an MG head is much too small to take parts from and ideally I'd like him to have the iconic Gundam helmet. I thought of taking an SD helmet but I think those might be too big. Maybe I'll make do with an attached fin only like a big tiara.

>>280482 is just too much. You do you with your own money though your picrel looks kinda fragile from standing on one foot while holding everything else especially her hair. It looks kinda heavy. I ended up buying picrel for around $85 since she's so beautiful though I'm well aware of her source material.
Her and her brother are kinda cute though. But cleaning her was a pain in the ass since she's an old figure from 2011-2014 that's also been sealed unopened for so long which meant the plasticizer chemical from the figure cannot escape and ended up settling back onto it making her dirty. Her legs where terribly sticky though everything else seem fine. Had her sit in soapy water overnight and carefully wiped with a microfiber silk lens cloth. Ngl I was stressed out from this experience though she still came out looking beautiful. Not sure about the ribbons on the dress that has some slight gray gradient to them? Maybe those were intentional to pop up more detail I guess. Has anyone else dealt with old figures becoming sticky, dirty, discolored, faded, etc.? How do you go about it?

Said partnership doesn't even have "bonuses" (like free domestic shipping) most of the time, thought you will have to check that.
Looking at FromJapan's fees (
https://www.fromjapan.co.jp/japan/en/help/fee#basic_fee) it seems like you have to pay item price, 500y per item, domestic shipping and international shipping, pretty standard. If you're fine with those fees, I would recomend ZenMarket instead because they're the same BUT you can pay VAT thru them, so it ends up cheaper.
Another one I like is DeJapan. Their per item fee is just 100y so if you're buying multiple things is always the cheapest. Their only faults are that they include the shipping in your invocie (so you have to pay a bit more on VAT, but I always found that cheaper than the accumulative 300-500 per-item fee other proxies have) and that they don't same Small Packet shipping, but if you're buying clothes you will probably have to use any other method anyways since they weight quite a bit.
Proxies always work the same (Send item/s link -> Pay for item + its fees -> Wait -> Pait for inter+national shipping -> Wait) so it isn't a headache. Feel free to explore other options, but these 2 are my favorite. I have heard Buyee has "per shop" fee instead of per item, so that could be cheaper to you, but I have had nightmare shipping experiences with them so I'm not sure if I could recomend them. Neokyo is fine too (500y, then 300y per item), but they always add an 3% extra on every payment due to their payment processor.

>>472322> -> Wait -> Pait for inter+national shipping -> Waitnow that part worries me… I wish there was a way to know the shipping beforehand. Let's say if I weren't comfortable with any of the shipping methods at all, thinking they are a bit too pricey, what would happen then? Would they refund the items and send them back to the store? Shipping from JP here (at least according to mofusand and amiami) tends to be 15-20EUR on average, and if it's any more, i would rather not pay too much.
No. 472364
>>472336Nope, you either pay or lose the items and whatever you've bought.
You can use this calculator to estimate beforehand how much you will pay. You need to know more of less the weight of what you're buying, but that's easy by simply weighting similar items you already have, it doesn't need to be exact. That's what I always do and the shipping price is very similar to the one I get there, maybe 100-500y of difference as much.
https://zenmarket.jp/es/calc.aspxAnd yeah, 15-20€ is usually what it costs, but it depends on what you're buying. If it's 2kg or more it will start at 25€ minimum (I had no idea ans had a very "fun" experience after I bought 2 artbooks).
If you're unsure, you're better off buying light clothes like accessories or shirts rather than trousers, hoddies or dresses, specially the later. One trouser or hoddie can be shipped for a nornal price though, but maybe you want to include something small as well to make the most out the package.

>>476569I voted for 3! She looks like a strawberry shortcake character and I like the purple. My favorite snow miku is 2024 and a big reason for that is because she wasn't the typical blue and white color scheme. It seems like 1 and 4 are the most popular in Japan. I think 1 is the worst because it's very plain and boring. Brings nothing new to the table. 2 is cute and I admire the courage of not giving her the pigtails, but something about it feels lacking? 4 is just okay, 5 is maybe my second favorite. I feel like it nailed the dessert theme well. Then maybe 6, the cookie theme is nice but not as big of a fan of the white hair.

Buyfag anons, I need help.
I've never bought anything from Japan (tried on DLsite once but had issues with my debit card) and today I tried to buy a digital manga on Amazon.co.jp. I'm posting in this thread and not the manga general because I figured you guys would know more about how to deal with this kind of situation.
So I logged in to my Amazon JP account that I already had, but when trying to buy that manga, it wouldn't let me proceed with my purchase because the Kindle version is region-locked. I then turned on my VPN with a Japanese IP, all of a sudden I was allowed to buy the item, then added my payment method and everything. During this process, I had to make a Tenso account for a valid Japanese address. It all seemed to go smoothly, but when I clicked on Read (it looked like I had successfully purchased the book) and tried to log in to Kindle with my Amazon JP account, I got hit with an "account on hold" notice.
The instructions for unrestricting my account include giving them my billing details. I can provide all the information and documents they're asking for, however, I don't know if I should be submitting the form with the VPN on or off. I figured they put my account on hold for one, some or all of these reasons:
>first time buying on Amazon.co.jp
>debit card is not Japanese (other people are able to buy this way just fine though)
>switched to JP IP while logged in, instead of before logging in/creating the account
>they don't like ProtonVPN IPs
My question is whether I should provide the info with my real IP or not, and whether this could result in my JP account, or even my normal (non-JP) Amazon account (from which I've made lots of purchases) being deleted. In the meantime, I think I'll go buy the manga on Cmoa, I've read that they accept international cards and PayPal. (should've used PayPal instead of card to begin with, I think).
No. 500010
>>499906I don't know, but please try these Japanese VPNs:
https://www.vpngate.netThey often work for Japan-only content that is blocked for other VPNs.
No. 500029
>>499906Fuck amazon, never go through so much trouble. Cmoa is cheaper, gives you coupons all the time, and you can easily rip the manga from it so you can read them on your kindle or wherever.
I don't think amazon cares that much. I would just tell them to forget it and to cancel the order, without giving an explanation. It's likely the different IPs that got you put on hold for possible fraudulent behavior.
No. 500077
>>500010>>500029So I sent them my documents (redacted, of course) with my actual IP and they reinstated my account a couple of hours later. The email said they'd already processed my order, but it doesn't look like my payment has gone through and I doubt it ever will unless I call my bank. In the meantime, I made a Cmoa account and bought 3 manga (including the manga I wanted plus an anthology) for less than 4 dollars kek
Thanks a lot for the link, and I'll look into how to rip manga from Cmoa, but I think a nona already shared me a resource in the smut manga thread.

Ended up buying her with the additional wide eye face. She's just so beautiful and looks like she's actually floating. Kinda hesitant of unraveling the film inside of the base so I'll just leave them there for now. It's nice that there are two extra rolls in the little VHS cassette box but I won't use them.
>>489643Yeah I thought so too even though some bishoujo figures known to be a bit coomery. I hate moidy coomshit but this one doesn't bother me that much. Maybe it's just me but I would've find it a lot weirder if they added panties.
>>489687She is! Seems that I really like ghosts heheh. I do happen to have a figure display case that fits her though I'll leave it a bit open for it to ventilate since it's summer.
>>489692I hope not but for sure things will be a little more expensive in the future. Saw that her price ranges from around $130~$190 or more so it's kinda up there and she does look like a popular figure on TikTok or something that most figure collectors would want. Though I do hope good fortune comes to you soon so you can get her.

I bought my second ever scale (europoor poorfag here. Yes, the 2 poors are neccesary kek) and she's very cute, but since she's almost 20 years old she is all sticky and the seller didn't mention anything…!
I managed to fully clean a prize that had the same issue before, but it's worse on this one. I soaked her in soapy water for some hours & the head and body's stickness is pretty much gone now thanks to gentle pats, but the one in her hands is stronger and refuses to leave…
One of her arms seems a bit loose/delicate, so I'm scared of rubbing her hand in case I accidentally snap the whole thing. The other hand also has some dirt between her fingers and I'm unsure how I'm gonna tackle that since she's a tiny 1/8.
Wish me luck, nonas… At least she was just $87 shipped, but I wish men took better care of their things.
>>507127It's probably a "We will have 1k figures on display", which is different from "We will have 1k NEW figures on display".

No. 507403
>>507126The hobby is dominated by men. Always has been. Always will be unfortunately. I'm sure figure companies ran numbers. It's very likely men exceeded spending in comparison to women, no contest.
Something important to keep in mind. If a girl figure is released, there's a good chance both men AND women will buy the figure. How many straight men are willing to buy a BL figure? That's why there are more female figures, there's more of a guaranteed revenue from both sexes. With twinkish men figures, they're only really getting money from women. It's very frustrating. We're left with shounen slop and the ocassional hottie bone. At times these will easily go up to $200+. Being a woman into figures is tough. On the positive side, we're not compelled to spend as much so often.

>>514982she looks like a druggie hippie to me kek, i understand this line has very simple designs, but why not giver her a pretty layered dress? i dont like the bell bottoms and how boring the middle of the design is. Also why the fuck isnt her crown thingie on top of her hair, why is it a hairpin. Sorry she was my favourite pony growing up and it feels dissapointing. She doesnt feel evil or mischievous enough, i wish she had a crazier face too.

>>526081It feels so bland and safe.
The new one seems to have a more military style shirt, an military armband, and gloves that soldiers used to often wear in full dress uniforms. So I think they are trying to lean more on the War aspect of Love is War? But the execution is so bad and personalityless.
Sad!
Also, the fact that she is wearing sheer tights, WITH NO SHOES sure is… a choice, kek. Certainly not trying to pander to any specific fetish, surely. No. 526117

>>526005I think the amount of generic coom figures increased. If you look at older eroge figures they were obviously coomery, but usually had some sort of unique design. There’s always been bikini and bunny figures of course, but they usually made up for it with the pose (ex. the Haruhi ones where they’re playing instruments.) Plus those ones were an established character, so you could buy it for who it was and not what she was wearing. Now they’re either plain gacha/original figures in a stock outfit (but with no skirt or shirt) or over-designed to hell. Even Sonico used to have better outfits, picrel. The old ones on the left are original. The new ones on the right have not only been used for a bunch of different characters, but have multiple recolors just for Sonico.

>>526191AYRT, I agree with you, though what I'm referring to is not only a large increase in NSFW figures, but also a large increase in extreme fetish ones. In the past, most NSFW figures were simply ecchi or only had the boobs out, and were generally just a bit more "tasteful". Now, there are so many that feature full frontal nudity along with every coomer trope possible jammed into the design (succubus, ahegao, feet, used condoms, piss, either ridiculously oversized proportions or loli with barely any in between, etc) and have zero appeal other than as jerkoff material. It's basically like if you tried to encapsulate porn addiction into a figure design. From what I know, Giga Pulse was really the only company that filled the "extreme" niche in the past, but now there are several companies that churn this stuff out constantly, and new ones also seem to be popping up more and more. Thinking of the mass amounts of this garbage that will slowly decompose in landfills over hundreds of years fills me with so much dread. It's one thing knowing that this stuff exists online, but knowing that there are actual physical 3D creations of it out there in the world is just so much worse.

>>526220This WonFes has been a treat for Makoto enjoyers, a shame those two are GK but it was lovely to see the ir process and final results. I'm glad P3RE has ignited the P3 spark again between asian fans.
Both are from chinese circles if I recall correctly, maybe
>>526199 has a point. They also produce figures at a more reasonable price than JP companies, plus exporting from china is very cheap so I'm excited if more CN companies start picking up JP licenses (and allowing us to buy directly from them rather from JP middlemen). The Makoto above from Apex was a surprise, hope that means the door is open.
In all honesty, I think nornal scales (think of
>>206241 for example, just a character standing without too much fanfare) shouldn't cost more than $80, with more elaborate ones being $100-140.

>>526252I'm single, so my budget for this kind of thing is limited and I have to pay lots of attention to p2roces haha. But overall it just blows my mind how much prices got inflated, picrel might've not be the best example (I have seen even simpler figures for that price) but I can't wrap my mind why would her 31k pricetag be justified.
Nowadays with improvements on technology, the line between prizes and scales are getting blurrier, often scales are the same as prizes detail-wise but just have much better QC and some shading in the hair. With "Premium Prize" lines being around $40, I think paying double for said improvements is fair.
