How many anime figures do you own, /r9k/?
>>
None, I have some Amiibo though

I would like to get some Jojo or One Piece figures sometime though.
>>
None. If I started buying them I'd never stop.
>>
>>27415684
I had a gigantic nendoroid collection with a lot of rare/limited nendoroid petit. I gave it all away. Plastic figures won't fill the void in your heart.
>>
None, they're very expensive and I'm afraid I'd end up regretting it. I have a bad tendency to impulse buy things and regret it.
>>
>>27415684
None because I'm a poorfag. :^(
>>
0, since I live with my parents and they wouldn't understand why I'd buy these 'dolls.

Unfortunately my two only friends are massive normies when it comes to anime so I'll probably never get around to actually buying them even if I live alone.
>>
80+ figs, I am 32 years old.

I have 27 anime figures, mostly nendoroids, rare scales and garage kits. Around 6 months ago I couldnt stop buying them but now I have most figures I want. Spent around 2k, if I didnt buy the majority of expensive ones used it would have been around 3-3.5k.

Not even close. That's just a generic black Kallax that they're on.

The ones besides the yellow one are super cheap, anon. You can get them on Amazon, $20-$25.
>>
None. I used to collect Transformers years ago until I realized how stupid it was.

What's the point of collecting hunks of plastic that just sit on your shelf? You get no entertainment of them. Especially hunks of plastic as expensive as anime figures.

What is the appeal? Back when I bought Transformers the hunt of going from store to store was more fun than having the figures, but it was never truly worth the money.
>>
>>27417280
It's a collection that generally only appreciates in value. Especially once the figures are no longer produced.
>>
>>27415684
None, this is a /co/ household.
>>
>>27417302
Yeah, I get that, but if you're buying figures for investment purposes there are much better ways of making money.
>>
>>27417280
>What's the point of collecting hunks of plastic that just sit on your shelf?
Can't that be said of almost anything that does not have a practical use? They're not hunks of plastic, they have symbolic and meaningful value to (most of) their owners, much like family heirlooms and certain decorative objects. I understand that it's not for everybody, but it's not irrational to understand why people like them.

I've got 5 I keep on a closet shelf, luckily a lot of figures don't really appeal to me so I haven't hit the slippery slope.

Pic related is my favorite, also got an alter GitS figure that looks really damn cool imo. If there were more figures of tomboys from series I like I think I'd probably get more
>>
>>27417365
You don't have other interests that would be better spent on?
>>
>>27417394
I don't have figures. Also, you don't have to spend all your money on one thing.
>>
>>27417337
I know, and there are other collections that keep value like figures. But collecting one thing doesn't bar you from collecting other things.

>>27417394
Like you've said this. I have six majors collections I've spent thousands on. There is no reason to assume people don't have other hobbies just for having this one.

One Noriko Takaya
and like 8 gunpla

>spent thousands on figures
>buying things is a hobby

It's completely absurd to me, but whatever makes you happy I guess.
>>
>>27417499
Collecting things is a hobby. It's not my only one, since some of my collections are consumable/usable (like firearms and books), not just static.

I guess it does all boil down to what brings happiness. Walking past a wall of cute figures makes me smile, and that's worth $100 every now and then.

Do you not have any major expenses that you're able to blow so much on something you just look at occasionally?

Buying things isn't a hobby. You mentioned guns and books. Shooting is a hobby. Reading is an interest. Collecting is a waste of time and money.

I don't know what you consider major, but I do have rent and all the regular bills, a small student loan payment every month. I put money into savings since I'm planning to get a house next year.

There's still plenty of money left over to have fun with. Researching things has always been one of my favorite things to do, which is a big part of collecting. I have meticulously organized wishlists that have thousands of books each, and keep online catalogs for my collections for which the metadata is always up-to-date. I do the same for anything I get interested in. I just really like cataloging information and hoarding items.

Anyway, I'm heading out right now. Will argue more if the threads still here later.

You cannot. I actually like her flowing cape and her cute skirt. Also, I hid my figures away from my room's shelves because I too felt embarrassed, but I still like them a lot. It's not necessary to have them on display all the time to enjoy them.
>>
None because no money and space. If I did have those two I'd still prioritize buying blu-rays and VNs that don't have working links or torrents anymore such as Kami-sama no Iu toori Kujibiki Ai-biki Scramble.
>>
>>27415684
None but i have considered it. The only thing i have that is similar is a little figure of Snoopy in a spacesuit. The helmet is also a snow globe with glitter bits in it. I bought it from the Charles Schultz museum in Santa Rosa.
>>
>>27418852
Also i have a tiny little figure of an Apollo era astronaut hanging from my car's rear view mirror. I really like space stuff. If i were to buy more i would like models of the Saturn V rocket and the shuttle with external tank and srb's attached.
>>
None, but however I do own:

>2 Onaholes
and
>70+ Doujinshi
>30+ Doujin Music

And I am slowly working through scanning/ripping all, because I hate when content I like isn't available, and I should be the only person to pay for the ludicrous price for shipping. I already have stuff on E-hentai, you're welcome.

By the way, onaholes are great and not that expensive, just don't get a mediocre brand like Tenga. You have to accept that a fake vagina still has to look like a vagina.

I'll probably need to buy one of those deltof things in the future.

Two.
One Attack on Titan and one Strike Witches

Sadly funds - or should that be a lack of them - prevent me from getting any more

Its honestly still cheaper to ship a book, scan it, and order a translation than to buy two high-quality figs.

I mean, it may not be worth it, but more than a few people follow that route.
>>
>>27419755
I think that having two high quality figures is better than having a translation of a tiny book.

There are already hundreds of good doujins out there, unless it is something very special to you it doesn't seem worth it.

All of them. It's all /v/ shit. I hate haggling. You either ask too much and get insulted and cursed at or ask too little and get taken advantage of. People find arbitrary things to complain about like the condition of the box. Maybe they won't like the way I've packaged it and want their money back, or just file a complaint through paypal and there will be nothing I can do. I'd almost rather throw everything in the garbage than deal with it.
