Thread archived before I could reply to someone who answered a question
Should I preorder stuff in general ? What I'm looking for is out of stock or too expensive but good smile is releasing a new figure and the preorders are until early january
http://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/5388/Kurisu+Makise+Yukata+Ver.html
>>135107713
Is >FREEing really not in the guide?
>>135107713
Preorder popular stuff or the stuff you REALLY want. If the manufacturer has dubious reputation then waiting till the release is advised.
>>135107713
Might as well get something you plan on getting down the line.
>>135107713
You can do the research yourself by doing a search on myfigurecollection of the yukata figure line. Find like 5 or 6 recent ones. And then search their names on aftermarket sales sites which are listed in the guide. Then compare those prices to the preorder price.
>>135107777
Because that shit is an inflated meme at this point, Freeing have expensive small scales and great 1/4ths, pretty much that's it. They are miles ahead of bad or even average manufacturers regarding quality, even if their prices for small scales are relatively high.
is EMS worth it?
Seriously what was he thinking when he named someone "pina colada".
>>135107969
Yes
>>135107970
Why not? Then she could have a son with a Russian guy and call him Orange Screwdriver
It's a 1/10, but fuck it, buying it. It's the only decent figure with a plug suit I could find where she doesn't look like she's waiting for the money shot.
>>135108072
I need a pic of her pantsu before making a decision.
>>135107818
I can find the yukata one on several sites, it's even on GoodSmile site (i think that if i get this figure i would preorder here ) or CDjapan, or AmiAmi, I don't know
I was looking for this one who is less expensive at first
http://myfigurecollection.net/item/35297
but it seems to be out of stock
>>135108381
oooh i've found both on Solaris Japan
>>135108542
Yeah Solaris Japan is a great site, buy it before someone else snatches it up.
>>135108381
>>135108542
I already told you what you should do to help yourself. But if you found it on solaris japan then you should totally buy that.
>>135107614
Rory makes my duck harder than diamonds.
>>135108603
I can't buy it yet sadly, if someone buy it before me that's my bad,Il'l get the yukata one
>>135108622
i could find those on MyFigureCollection, thanks for helping
Now I'll have to wait a few days until I get money, I'm a bit confident that the Yukata one will still be here at least
I was thinking about watching Gate, but after seeing how much that figure is spammed here. I changed my mind.
>>135108769
Good
>>135108769
So comfy.
>>135108769
The preorder just came out, so of course it's going to be spammed a bit. I don't see how that determines if you should watch a show or not.
>>135108769
So you don't like it now that you realized it's popular?
Gee, I wonder what that makes you.
Rory is one of the better anime designed girls of 2015. Manga has a more faithful charm though.
>>135108769
>I'm an easily influenced idiot
Okay. I'll enjoy S2 enough for the both of us.
>tfw i only like one character enough to buy figures for and all the releases suck for the foreseeable future

Buyf/a/g 2015 survey
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1NWKhsOkVjPUHdk1V0O4DK0XJCXWtutZmWAjUGd0PdzU
Took long enough to actually get it out thanks to real life. Pretty similar to last year as most of the questions are the same except a couple.
Let's say it will have a December 28th deadline as you guys are usually really good about getting it done fast. I will try to have the result prior to 2016.
Let me know if you notice any mistakes fast so I can fix them before we get too many responses.
Enjoy and remember to post the link in the OP of each new thread or early on. Happy Holidays you pieces of shit.
>>135109677
>What do you do with your figure boxes
What kind of response is put them up as is? Can't you just say store them?
>>135109677
>What year was your first year of SIGNIFICANCE becoming one.
There is no 2015 option.
>>135109677
>three figures I can't decide between for favorite and FOTY
>>135109943
I'm drawing a blank on mine, or at least I feel like the figure I'm going to pick is only going to get my vote
>>135109943
Yeah man, I can't decide for figure of the year..
>>135110066
>or at least I feel like the figure I'm going to pick is only going to get my vote
Who gives a fuck, put what you honestly think.
>>135108769
That's great news, anonymous
No really, i hope it stays that way
>>135109677
alright you glorious bastard i finished
>>135110113
Well it's more like last year I felt like the best thing I saw all year was far and away the best, and a lot of people shared the same opinion since she came in second. But this year I can't even guess what that sort of hivemind would be, which probably means I'm missing some of the top-tier figures this year since they didn't interest me for reasons other than the quality of the figure. Not saying I want to vote with the hivemind, but saying that I want to consider more figures than I already am.
>>135109865
Pure semantics
You know the difference.
If this was your first year then you say 2015. If not say the year you started.
>>135110244
why are chocolate girls so gross?
welp i fucked up on the survey for figure of the year. I thought this one was released already
>>135110290
>Have you ever bought a figure off of Amazon? *
I feel like there should be a distinction between the US and the JP versions of the site, since ordering from JP with international shipping is a quite a bit different from ordering from Amazon-affiliated third party sellers on the US site.
>>135109677
Just curious, why do we do the survey before the year is even over? There are still December figures that people won't even get until well into January, so why not wait until then? Or do we just consider December releases as part of the next year?
>>135110480
When you think Amazon you think of the one based in your country which is why I made favorite stores both sites. I will fix the wording for that though.
>>135110505
I do it within the last two weeks of the year as nothing really is going on and also odds are if you haven't gotten a figure in the mail by now it most likely will not be to your house until after 2015 because of the shipping delay this time of the year.
>>135110454
that or marie will be on my list for FOTY 2016
>tfw I spent 146155yen on figures this year
Hurts when I put it together like that, and I bet that's a drop in the ocean compared to some people here.

Added this guy to the store. Also updated the EU and UK stores to have almost all of the designs (still working on getting them even with the NA store).
Going to revamp the main website to be a little less cluttered and a little more mobile friendly.
>>135110859
I hope to god your not a poorfag, cause that's way too much money for anyone who makes less than 40k freedom bucks a year to be spending on a hobby.
>>135110890
Especially more Oda Non milfs. Sweet mother of God.
Does anyone have this? Is it good?
>>135109677
I marked that I owned BDs and DVDs, but what I meant is that own somevideo tapes

she's drinking hotglue
>>135111053
She comes out on the 24th.
>>135110859
I spent just about that much for all the pre-orders for now up to Summer 2016. Don't feel too bad about it since it's not one lump sum I have to pay off so it lessens the blow.
Kind of worried I'll wind up doubling what I've already spent before 2016 is over.
I've spent probably a little less than 2k on buyfagging since July. Income since that point maybe 3500. Im 18, in final year of free community college program
Talking about money should be a bannable offense in these threads.
It leads to nothing but poorfag shitposting and blogging.

You just look for a reason to bitch. Shut up
The best part of preordering is I may be broke now because of Christmas but I'll have tons of money in 6 months.
I still hate this fucking hobby.
>>135111497
Just the usual, fucking the finances of your future self.

It'll be fine. Christmas ruins everything.
Figures that release around now.are the worst though.

How do I know what I'm doing on melonbooks? Not into moonrunes.
Anyone with recent experience with 2you4 this time of year? I've sent them many emails about my orders, but they've been in processing for over 2 weeks now.
>>135111561
Looks like people talking about buying figures, what preorders they're doing, how much they spent, etc. I don't really see a problem.
Merchandise is a huge part of the hobby. It's the only reason anime even exists.
>>135111692
>Anyone with recent experience with 2you4 this time of year?
never used them myself, but processing times for oversees packages usually takes a while. Not quit 2 weeks but it maybe the time of the year that's doing it.
>>135107850
You have no idea what you are talking about, FREEing is trash from the sculpt to the paint even their 1/4 scales are questionable.
>>135109521
this tan definitely looks better than that one with nigger tan lines
>>135111932
I like this one too
So my Kongou came in, rather quickly I might add.
>>135112010
you come on her quickly as well?
>>135112010
fuck that looks like it takes up a lot of space.
>>135112010
I'm really surprised on how detailed her armaments are.

Would have thought the majority of us store them somewhere.
>>135112052
She's certainly a bit puffy too.
Sadly her leg is also a tad bit broken, not to sure how to fix that...
>>135112010
She's a fast ship.
I still don't think that face looks too great. Same problem I had with their Kaga.
>>135112073
I sure hope you don't live anywhere hot or humid.
>>135112010
She looks wonderful, may need to pick it up down the road
>>135112048
She basically takes up a full shelf, the box she came in was huge as well.
>>135112092
And a bonus.
>>135112078
Someone requested this question so I added it in as it is reasonable enough.
>>135112148
>She basically takes up a full shelf, the box she came in was huge as well.
i will forgive the space issue, but only because that is a beautiful wall scroll.
>>135110890
word
>>135112180
I think he means that there was no answer that's just "store them".
What's the best place to sell artbooks? I have pic related and was wondering which place is ideal for selling.
>>135112249
I was trying to have it set it up that way with one the terms IIRC.
Reason why one of the selections was discarding the plastic.
>>135112073
I have to move every year or so. I don't even bother unpacking my figures anymore. I just put them into storage for when I can finally get a permanent place to settle down.
>>135111083
Maybe it's eggnog + brandy
Or just hotglue
>>135111012
Pls respond. Aquamarine remelia

>>135111012
Looks prize figure like. Remilia doesn't have any decent prepare scale figures. If you are interested in GKs, there is pic related.

Also, here is a review of the Aquamarine Remilia. http://asahiwa.jp/f/touhouproject_remiliascarlet_aquamarine.html. Overall, the quality of the figure is mediocre or just plain bad.
>>135114589
Yeah, It has too much BJD style going on with it. Koto's is still good, looks more boyish and also has a nice base.
>>135114965

>Overall, the quality of the figure is mediocre or just plain bad.
Execution looks fine. No paint application problems or bad casting. It's just a really plain figure.

Just wanted to say thanks again. Bought the artbook along with the DC mangas and one last art book by the Castlevania artist. Sucks that it won't be shipped til next month and the $21 shipping but it was worth it.
