Like what bakabakayaro said.. need to call them. For in-stock items, you can actually call any of the branch to keep the thing u want to buy.

It's not about whether the item is popular or not.. it's about whether you will appreciate the collection itself or not. biggrin.gif

It's better to ask yourself clearly on what's your direction in collecting these... moe-ness? Castoff-ability? Hot chicks with big assets/weapons? Based on certain anime/manga/character? (opps... did I just quoted some collectors' trend here? tongue.gif) Or else you'll find yourself swamped with TONNES of nice choices and your wallet just cant keep up with all the releases out there!

But if you insist on getting collection based on the 'popularity'.. go get GSC BRS "Cannon ver" instead of Blade ver. Good luck in getting it in MISB and reasonable price.. this figure was quoted by some as the best figurine of year 2009 (I think Alter Yoko deserve it as well.. )

As for Choun Shiryu... there are other versions out there that are more 'popular' (in term of talk-about) than SMC Dragon Destiny.. Manga vol 14 cover art version is one of them..
*
Or if consistency is your preferences, just pick any lineup with majority of the figures inside the lineup are up to your taste tongue.gif

Oh and btw my preferences is castoffability, followed by ecchiness+design and then character tongue.gif And usually if I bought a figure, I'll try to get the pair of the said figure, eventhough the pair not really up to my taste tongue.gif

I'm following the MOST dangerous path of all..

If nice face + sculptwork/overall "wow" factor/nice weapon then I'll be tempted to buy!

Anymore info on that oh-so-lovely posed Yoko? Who's the manufacturer and when is it gonna be released?

I wish to actually, but since I also buying other toys (gunplas. dolls, action figures)... kenot really do it. At present, every month I spend around 1k for hobby stuff

Slow and quite bad, consider that the shop name was XL-Shop "DOT COM"  sweat.gif

Besides, there's a new outlet in Subang's Empire Gallery mall. I sent an email in to see if they could send the package to Subang's outlet rather than MV's. Still no response so far. sad.gif

hahah you better call lor tongue.gif I think they leave their email replies to their IT guys, which from my observation, are quite slow in doing their job.

Uhu might not be enough.. try stronger glue; epoxy for example. As for the blue stain, it's from her blue outfit; that's y now I displayed her cast-offed tongue.gif

Can try use cotton bud dabbed with thinner to touch very, VERY lightly to remove the stain..

Be warned though.. I tried this on 1 of my figurine and it leaves extra shiny sheen on the spot. So use this solution cautiously..

Hahah I tried them on Sheryl already.. managed to remove one spot, and accidentally rub off some paint on the other spot doh.gif
BTW, my loot within this one month

He doesn't born with companies giving him PVCs for review. It has to start somewhere. smile.gif

He started with blogging about things people would like to know (iinm it's about living in japan and hobby stuff). Later after he accumulated lots of followers, can see his fans usually will buy almost everything he featured in his blog posts (that time he didn't frequently get free goodies yet). Many companies started to noticed this, particularly toy makers. Thus they began to give him free samples.

QUOTE(orestes @ May 20 2010, 08:52 AM)
yeah.. wit his father's name

Nope.. many people didn't know he's the son of Jimmy Choo before Danny himself accidentally spilled it when he wrote about his childhood. By that time actually he already become famous. And if you do read his story, during his childhood till the time he moved to Japan, his father was not rich nor well known like now. Danny migrated to Japan and become what he is now by his own effort. Only past 1-2 years he seems to start to collaborate with his father.

cant argue the fact that he had money to go japan and reside in the first place whistling.gif

if either one of us had that chance/money, i think we also can be dannychoo

Nope.. he actually go to Japan after accepted into a Japan company (through a series of exam and interview in UK). From that point, he seems to jumped from company to company (he used to work at Amazon Japan, Microsoft Japan) before finally opened his own company (using his savings). He did actually go through a tough times, but of course he didn't tell it in very detailed manner.

Well, if you want to live in Japan, the 2 usual common ways are either get a work in Japan, or studying there
