I'd really like to buy from shitty japanese store, but shipping and customs do exist.
How do you deal with them anon? Since I got billed around 80€ on a 150€ package, I've become a little scared of importing.
>>143650884

>>143650884
Order from stores that undervalue, use SAL.
Bow down mongrelsIt even comes with his Prototype look. Pre-ordered in a heartbeat.
>>143651181
What is the worst that can happen when you undervalue stuff and get caught?
>>143651282
They tell you to bring a receipt from paypal or something. You can either fake it or bring the real one. If you bring the real one they just charge you the real price and move on.
They always assume the store undervalued out of their own choice, it doesn't get blamed on you.
I forgot, also mark your stuff as gifts.
>>143651381
You have to pick up your package at customs and tell them the real value.
I shouldn't do it, right?
Just noticed that none of my figures are from the same series.
>>143651828
Unless you really love Hotaru, I don't see why you would. Really should just buy merchandise for characters you love, not something that's FotM and be forgotten in 4 months.
>>143651381
I don't know about your country, but in Brazil they just tax the value they think is true and say then nothing.
>>143651381
If a package goes missing or is damaged and you try to claim insurance, you can only claim what you declared the value as.

WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU GUYS ARGUING ABOUT
Hey guys. I'm Selling some figs due to the lack of space. US preferred. If interested feel to contact[email protected]
Someone is selling this on mfc for $35. Its not a bootleg r-right?
>>143654410
One guy said the Figma came with the Prototype Gil head, which it doesn't, and the other guy is arguing that it does because he has no idea what he's talking about.

Selling my old Momohime figure for $70, never been hotglued. I'm getting rid of her as I preordered the improved version of her figure.
>>143654627
Sure, buy it... That is if you like cheese dust, sticky mountain dew residue, and sweat all over you're waifu.
I would post my nemerous MFC experiences, but I think anons are already tired of hearing about them.
>>143648797
I didn't take pictures of her, I don't like blondes much.
>>143654059
Overheard the female in a couple commenting on those figures(I have pictures of them too), saying they finally decided on a cup size for her. I guess she didn't know that Film Z isn't canon.
>>143654878
If you spammed them over and over then don't
But if you haven't - do tell

Any artbookfags 'round here?
What type of artbooks do you collect? what's your favorite?
>>143655137
I generally go for both full colour illustrations and concept sketches. The Aria Illustration Works books are some of the most glorious books I have seen.
>>143655002
creepy
>>143655137
Mostly stuff with watercolors. I remember really liking the Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun artbook. It's hardcover too, which is a plus for me.
I'd post pictures, but I only have my shitty phone camera on hand.
>>143656004
>virgin
>cuck
>>143655137
Do doujin artbooks count? I only have a couple but those are the ones I like to collect the most. Favorite is Otsutome.
If not then toi8's artbooks.
>there will never be a figure of Blanc and her bare toes
>>143652516
>>143652455
I'm a lolicon but I can't into diapers.
>>143655137
I go for pretty much everything, key frames, rough sketches, full colour artwork. I have at least 80 books that I would class as art books.
Reposting. For the anon in >>143630413 if you're still looking, the blonde nendoroid is Fate from the Nanoha series. The white-haired nendo is Hayate from the same. Those three nendoroids are from the Movie 2nd line.
>>143657071
And I'm still looking for this:
Can anyone recommend a LED light strip? (Preferably buyable on Amazon or something.) Do you think lighting only from the top will provide decent illumination on the bottom shelves, or should I run it along one of the corners all the way to the bottom? Bottom two shelves are empty right now but I'm hoping to put stuff there soon.

haruna a cute
I really want to get this figure but it's rather pricey on ebay and other online stores at $50.
It's not expensive considering the prices of figures, but I remember I saw it all the time some years back for like $15 and I hate myself for not buying it.
I believe it's the only figure of the berserk Eva-01 from episode 19 with the human arm, and it's one of the old figures made by Sega, quality isn't the best but not too bad either, but I don't know if worth $50.
>>143655137
I like production notes and full color artbooks the most. Madoka's got some really good artbooks.
>>143657507
Consider buying.
>>143657507
All these years, all these shows, and you still cling to eva.
Just buy your goddamn figure if you're this unwilling to part with the show.
>>143656854
Diapers are shit-tier.
>>143657663
>All these years, all these shows, and you still cling to eva.
I also like Macross and Akira, does it offend you?
Yeah I might as well buy it now than wait until it keeps raising its price.
>>143657518
Did someone scan the card art WIXOSS books?
I can't remember.
>>143657892
Don't know, but a 4th one comes out next month.
>>143658097
Do you know if it's the third or the second one that has all the Iona LRIGs?
I need more Iona in my life.
>>143657713
literally
>>143657117
I don't understand why that Taiga fig is so popular. It's so shit. I have five figures of her already but I'm never gonna consider buying that one.
>>143658476
It's not the best, but I don't think it's shit either. As for why it's popular, it got 3 (re-)releases, that probably has something to do with it, and is quite affordable for the size.
>>143656916
>key frames
Mind sharing a picture or two?
>>143658269
2 has the most Iona.
3 has this.

>>143659099
It's not on MFC because it's a comiket art book.
>>143655137
Artbooks are my main source of buyfagging. My favorite is the Kara no Shoujo one which was also my grail.
>>143659239
Is she mocking you, knowing you'll never need it?
>>143655137
I like getting anime and game artbooks. I've got...two Darkstalkers books, two or three Fate books, Gurren Lagann, Persona 4A, Soejima's works, Megaman Starforce 3...
>>143658783
>>143658826
>>143658894
where do you buy these key frames usually? i collect /co/ art and there are a few established web sties to find art, but i never found where to get these.
>>143659465
Damn I lost.
>>143659856
These are all books, some companies like SHAFT or Ufotable just sell books of their key frames. Otherwise you have to look at Comiket. All three of those books were only sold at Comiket.
>>143659856
I know that Trigger is selling Kill la Kill keyframes at AX right now.
They look pretty nice.
Are there any Mikus that would pair well with the Tony Taka Luka and Rin, but isn't the actual Tony Taka Miku? Heard too many stories about her leaning and warping, and also her base a shit.
Anyone else running out of good aftermarket shit to buy? I feel like I've hit a wall, with only a couple of sort-of wants left. Now it's all looking forward to preorders. Kinda disappointing.
>>143659937
oh gotcha. i thought they were originals (still cool as fuck though).
>>143659981
i'm regretting not going to this more and more.
>>143648901
>>143653058
>>143653135
>>143653263
I've always been wary of ordering figures from Surugaya before because I was never sure if their rankings and descriptions were accurate, but those all look like they're in very nice condition.
>>143660029
You could skip some pre-orders and then you'd have some aftermarket things to buy again.
>>143660024
her base looks fine, anon. it's all about the figure, not the thing she stands on. do you stand on specific spots because you think it looks cool and not just plain ol concrete?
>>143659981
Did anyone grab one of those?
>>143648901
Wish I had rich parents too
>>143646424
>>143646486
looks like trash.
>>143651381
They tax you for the real value and you pay a hefty fine ontop of processing fees.
>>143660134
Next to Luka and Rin's bases hers is a shit.
But that's secondary to the warping issues.

Well, based on my understanding of our import laws, I'd be in trouble for any of the lewd shit I've gotten, loli or not. Not really too certain how much is loli, but when I think about it, I'd say a minority. Two or three figs, two or three h-manga, a handful of doujins...

How well is an A quality used item on Amiami, pretty good overall? I can't even find the figure anyone, so I figured I'd jump on it since they actually had it in stock used and such.
>>143661645
probably bullshit you overreacting on things because you read shit online and make worse case projections
>>143661175
Means the item's in their warehouse and is in stock, so they don't need to spend a few days verifying stock before billing you.
>>143661855
I see the shipping is caculated too. Haven't tried, but do they ask for payment the moment you confirm your order? (directing you to paypal etc)?
>>143661815
Probably. You hear about guys getting brought in for this shit all the time, but really, they usually did /something/ to wind up on some list or another in the first place.
>>143662020

Anyway SCALES WHEN
Not really /a/ related but I just got this nice little Solid Snake Revoltechmini figure for 30 bucks on Mandarake. It's probably my favorite MGS1 Snake figure.
>>143675866
Japanese. I bought one of the Nis LL releases and hated it. The cases holding the discs are cheap flimsy shit and get stuck in the box. The insert paper covers have terrible design and are one sided, no nice print when you open up to the disc. The chipboard is cheap too and warps shape with very little pressure. JP has better overall presentation.
>>143655137
All kinds. I've got concept sketch books and full color illustration books, I don't really discriminate if it's from a series I like. As far as favorite it's a toss up between the Gargantia Progress Files box that's got character sketch, world design and mech design concept sketch books, the Alchemist of Arland Memorial Works or the Littlewitch Romanesque concept sketch book.
>>143675866
JP release, even though you won't get to use the UR card in the game by the time it gets to you. The quality is fantastic, it's subbed and the extras are solid.
So I just discovered that I want this.
http://myfigurecollection.net/item/298309
tells me that preorders are from January to March of this year, so I missed that window. So how does this work? Am I going to have to buy from a distributor site? Will Amiami have it sometime down the line?
>>143677270
>Limited + Exclusive
You're fucked. Even if it shows up on secondhand stores it's going to be really expensive. Try seeing if that guy on the comments section is still passing his pre-order.
Does anyone here have "The Art of Yoh Yoshinari Illustrations" art book that they don't mind scanning?
>>143677375
Just one bad thing after another today. Apparently two stands at AX today had the Max Factory Yamato figure but sold out before I could find them, and Good Smile's Shinobu sold out.
Finally got my other two Hard Girls so I can display them (along with my Neptunia figs)with their appropriate consoles after my game room is finished
>>143678002
The quality is surprisingly good considering how inexpensive they are
>>143678045
Mega Drive is objectively best girl
>>143677375
Yeah, so, question
Is e2046 legit? I got a link to their site from the sticky. They have the valkryie fig above at 45.55 and the Yamato figure I'm looking for at 66.12 Those are extremely suspicious prices.
>>143677270
You have a couple options. Amiami, Yahoo Auctions Japan, Surugu-ya for preowned. Nippon Yassan will probably have a couple after it drops.
>>143678072
With a Nendo to show scale
>>143678099
E2046 is a "bootleg" garage kit store. Those are probably unpainted GKs. They do sell some painted kits but I don't think they go for that cheap, so it probably isn't that. Read the product description.
>>143678200
Roger, thanks.
>>143678099
It is a legit site. They sell a number of products, with different "Labels" for each.
Unlabeled items are Bootleg GKs they've duplicated. These are generally the cheapest stuff they've got, and probably what you're looking at. I've never bought 'em, so can't speak to the quality. They also do "Gathering", which are prepainted GKs. Usually these're even more expensive than production-PVC items(Which they do also sell, btw). They also do "Anti-Hero", which are PVC kits they've bootlegged, and reduced down to GK-Productions, so people can easily do custom stuff. And lastly their "Ori[ginal]" designs.
Only thing I've ever bought from them was a Lilith Gathering they did. She is pretty damn good.
>>143678145
Should get Saturn's scale with that price cut.
>>143678099
I would recommend GK-Model instead. It too is a "bootleg" GK store, but E2046 has been making buying kits from GK-Model as of late and making theirs out of those, in turn being bootlegs of bootlegs for double the casting flaws.
>>143679175
I'm not all that interested in bootlegs.
On the other hand, if you include all three figures, I don't know how I feel about spending 450 dollars on plastic butts when my stocks that I went all in on are about to drop 20% once the market opens on Tuesday.
I have been made a fool by the Anime Jew and I have nobody to blame but my own damn self. I bought my first figure at anime expo for $110 on impulse, went home, looked it up and found that I could have just as easily bought it for $55.
>>143679734
Sounds about right.
Me, on the other hand, walked away with these for 15 a piece. The booth I was at had the larger Miki one, but I didn't want to buy different sizes. When I went back, all of their Mikis sold, so I bought these two instead.
Going to head back tomorrow. The more I think about it, the dumber it sounds to try and find rarer/hard to find figures on the last day of the convention, but maybe I'll get lucky. I ran around all day trying to find Max Factory's Yamato but no one had her.
>>143679734
Now post it so we can all laugh at how you can easily get it for less than $55 if you don't buy it from Amazon/ebay like a fucking idiot.
>>143679734
Don't. Buy. Figures. At. Conventions. At Phoenix Comiccon I saw a booth trying to sell a figure for $160, with its box beat to holy shit and back. Granted it was a Native figure, but oh wait, I checked Manda and one with the box beat to "Heavily Damaged" by Manda standards was about $90 USD after conversion.

Squished.
This is 6 years ago (I stopped using them for a long time after they fixed the bug with their shipping pricing) but they used to push individual disks into envelopes. Combined with DHL being awful they all got squashed.
Maybe things are better now. I still use them for books and it's been OK.

>>143686437
Who knows. The measurements seem to be the same as JP L, so I don't know why they don't just call it L.

See how her scale turns out and then decide.
>>143684148
I wonder what all that small text at the bottom says. Presumably it's a similar spiel to the original series and its saving the school epitaph.
>>143687665
Or you could actually develop the surviving characters as well, rather than having half of them literally be too fucking stupid to either kill or be killed throughout the entire game.
Anyway this isn't the place to argue this so I'll drop it here. Series is still pretty enjoyable, keen for any merch the anime brings in.

>>143688550
I would buy so many nendos if they came with another cast member. They look lonely if it's just them.
>>143689526
To be honest, not even then. They will almost always be above how much you can get them online and the stuff that's not is trash you shouldn't even be considering to buy
>>143689624
At least Sakura has Tomoyo to keep her company. But yeah, there are so many series where only one character gets a nendo, or a figure in general.

Not that I'm aware of, I've been able to secure pretty much all the books I've wanted. A lot of gengas are released by individual animators which means it's very easy to overlook them, so there's probably a lot out there that I'm not aware of.

Who would you like merch of out the dead characters?
I think I just got a free figure from AmiAmi
I ran my card on tuesday, I received the figure on friday (EMS shipping) but the pending charge for AmiAmi dropped off friday evening.
It's now monday and I still have no finalized or pending charge, it's as if it dropped off and vanished
>>143694518
Nope. They'll get their money, trust me, or you won't receive your figure.
>>143694570
Edit*
They'll get their money, trust me.
>>143694518
The same happened to me on a Mandarake order that I placed last Tuesday and arrived today, though I'm expecting the charge to pop back up tomorrow since it's the 4th of July weekend currently, if you're American maybe it's a similar issue. Have you checked any alternative views on your banking site? Like a transaction view as opposed a balance history? For me, the charge shows up as pending still in my balance history, but is gone from my transaction view since it went a while without being approved, I'd imagine.
Are there any decent quality Takumi Fujiwara figures?
>>143694518
Most banks, like Chase, undergoes maintenance on the weekends and recent pending stuff may not appear anymore. You'll see the charges Tuesday.
>>143694670
Yeah, I can view pending charges too, but it dropped off the pending charge list. My credit card balance increased by the amount of the figure as well, which means my CC provider no longer sees it. I guess I'll have to see what happens tomorrow.
>>143694851

>>143695867
You don't buy plastic from things you love to fill the gaping hole. There is no hole, you feel nothing. It's just another decoration, like a vase.
>>143695867
Only chain fast food is bad.
>>143696016
>There is no hole, you feel nothing. It's just another decoration, like a vase.
Wouldn't say I feel nothing. Window shopping and buying good looking figures is exciting. The excitement usually ends when I receive them.
>>143696444
>The excitement usually ends when I receive them.
Exactly, because you're aimlessly engaging in consumerism. There is no love to feel for what you bough.
Ded.
>>143696680
I guess so. That's how I am for figures at least.
It's why I have primarily stopped ordering them unless a new Sansei figure pops up. Otherwise I actually enjoy purchasing art books of my favorite artists if I can get my hands on them. It's too bad they're far less frequent than figures.
>>143696444
>the excitement ends when you receive them
Stop buying shit then. I don't buy many figures or other merch these days, but it's all been stuff that I look back at occasionally and think 'yes, this was good'.
>>143696794
Maybe I should start selling off my collection.
>>143697052
Honestly if you don't feel anything, might as well.
You can invest that into more artbooks, and if you run out start getting into doujin artbooks.

>>143698555
I've always had that ability since I first got a card back in 2009
>>143698555
My mastercard debit works fine with mandarake, the first time I purchased from a site with 3D Secure (it was on newegg, I think?) I just had to set a password and whenever I check out through it I just need to enter that password. Your bank should have information on your card that should say if it supports it, or you could call them and ask.
>>143698643
I did nothing. Maybe its different with credit cards, I'm using a debit card. Its a Bongland card, so I don't know if that's any use to you.
>>143698722
>>143698768
Yeah I've got two credit cards, one through my bank (Chase) and one through my credit union. We generally use the credit union card so we can get a more up to the minute exchange rate, but it definitely doesn't support Verified. I'm going to give Chase a call and see if I can get that card figured out. There seems to be very very little information on this stuff.

Pass. Still waiting for MF's. Also her breasts look like they were sewn on.
>>143683757
>>143696655
>>143696703
>Co-de
Fuck everything.
>>143694851
Wouldn't get this even if it looked good. I just want figures of characters in their normal outfits/battle attire. It's the same reason I won't get my favorite characters figures because I'm not buying some cheap bikini cast off for her just because the series is somewhat lewd.
>>143701098
Here's for Mai
>>143701098
And for sushio. I gave him a drawing as a gift, he really liked it, the translator and he chuckled in awe or something like a whole "ohohoh"
>>143701681
What did you draw for him?
>>143701681
Sushio is pretty chill. I met him once at Comiket.
>>143701681
Sushiwho?
>>143701681
Were they sold at AX or something? I would kill to own something like this autograph or a frame of Mako from the show.
>>143701853
Since he's a big fan of Akira
he wore an akira shirt when i gave this to him as well so he really enjoyed it
>>143702260
Cool beans!
>>143702119
you could get his autograph for free there but they also sold random keyframes from the anime at the good smile booth. I ended up getting a mako
>>143702519
idk if all the frames have this but some of them have a faint color check on the back, check yours and put it against the light or something
Just ordered the re-release of Mioh, Maho, and Darjeeling Beach Queens. Anchovey's looked off to me otherwise I would have bought it too.
>>143702711
The GuP Beach Queens don't look that great. I prefer the Chara Gumins.
>>143702519
Damn wish I was on the west coast, you got a keyframe of mai waifu right there. How much did it run you?
>>143703142
For the moment it is the only way I will have Darjeeling. She, Maho, and Miho looked okay so I'm happy I order them.
>>143703305
Their Darj is nice too.
>>143703199
Not him, but just $20
Also you'll have to compete with Sushio as to who loves her the most
>>143703491
That a garage kit?
>>143694851
This is tempting.
>>143695040
>>143701170
And that helps temper the temptation somewhat.
>>143695687
>Albedo in her armor.
I think I'd rather a somewhat sexy scale of her like this one, or just in her normal outfit...and then a figma or S.H. of her in her armor.
Anyone familiar with the older DOA figures at all?
>>143700120
What frames did you end up getting?
>>143702260
Neat, anon. For shit like this I'm actually thinking of how awesome cons might actually be. But I live in a shithole so meeting people from the industry is pretty much impossibe.
Just wonder but do you guys take your plastic toy out of the box?
If so do you keep the box after?
I bought 3 of the Phat's IM@S so far and still havnt unbox them
>>143703669
>Not him, but just $20
More regret that I couldn't try and win one then
>Also you'll have to compete with Sushio as to who loves her the most
There is no competition between the followers of the church of round. We all love the Goddess of Round equally.I just love her more equally.
>>143703935
Yes and yes. Why bother buying them if you won't ever display them?
me beauties
>>143704026
nice memes
>>143704026
Garbage taste. Holy shit.
>>143703935
I keep boxes in case I ever want to sell or move houses. Moving figures without boxes sounds awful.
>>143703758
Yes, but its color and good quality so assembly is easy.
>>143704145
No need to be buttmad because people dont give a fuck about your preferred magical girl/slice of life moeblob show.
>>143653135
Here is a man who appreciates midriffs.
>>143690504
I hate it when they release figures before the anime comes out.
>>143704026
The one in the middle I need. Did you unbox her yet?
She needs to choose better underwear.
>>143705214
No, because there is alot of pollen in the air atm, so it would just be a massive dust magnet.
>>143703805
Anyone happen to know? Debating about picking it up since DOA doesn't have a lot of somewhat decent merchandise, and the WonFes variant looks pretty nice as well.
>>143705259
she needs to get her face fixed
>>143705259
>FREEing
No thanks. I love Overlord, but there's no way that this is something remotely decent.
>>143704340
Maybe...
>>143705259
Her real problem is that fucking face, good lord.
>>143705355
FREEing makes great small figu res though
>>143705259
Pls spoiler sp00ks thx
>>143705259
Why is her head so small?
>>143705259
>not fully naked
>welds
Yeah, nah.
>>143699119
Since when is ramlethal a trap and from what I know there are no new traps in GG other than Bridget
so glad I didn't preorder madoka+homura by hobby japan from NY. Their booth at AX sold preorders for 160 usd including shipping and tax.
>>143706599
I wouldn't buy that shit for 100.
>>143706599
Really? Fug, I'm jealous. Had to get them through my proxy so of course the cost went up...nevermind how shite the CAD is right now.
>>143701617
Isn't she the girl from kiznaiver?
>>143703841
Cons are only worth it for the guests and nothing else. But for what you can get it is worth it.
>>143702519You wouldn't happen to be interested in reselling that would you?
>>143702519
Did he do sketches for free? I'm wondering if sketches are the norm for animators and artists
>>143707170
A lot of the cheaper miniature stuff is sold for like $10 each which isn't too big of a loss and it's always nice to see figures in person, and then buy them online.
>>143687075
>>143687102
God damn you fuckers, stop making me want this. It's a good thing i still find the bellies off
>>143708072
>>143687102
>just sold out on NY
I should have just jumped the gun and resell it later
>>143651185
Figmas are so expensive these days. And I really want that son of a bitch to pose with 2.0 Saber.
>>143707608
sorry but i dont really think id sell it, its pretty cool and not worth selling for the 10$ or whatever.
>>143702574
yea all the frames i got have this colored pencil shading on the back of them, its really cool
>>143702519
Wow that's cool.
>>143695172
Who are the artists of middle and right?
>>143705259
The welds I can forgive.
But that face sculpt just looks horrendous. Like her face, her whole head even, is being squished together from the sides.
Do biginjapan packages require signature?
>>143709266
yes you dumb fucking cunt.
>>143709624
Thank you, kind anon.
>>143708710
Man, I wish I bought one. I didn't feel like gambling since you just get a random frame.
>>143709703
you're welcome dumb fucking cunt.
>>143709266
Any package that's registered requires a signature upon delivery unless your mail carrier's lazy and just leaves it, or is lazy and just leaves a pick-up slip without trying to deliver it.
