early days .. most figures weer in 1/6 scales ... the reduce scales started to happen when japanese yen rate rise like no tomorrow .. and production cost increase .. so we can see few companies made smaller scale figures, but maintain at 1/6 price range .. even their so called 1/6 or 1/8 scale didnt feel correct and look smaller than it should be ..
and at that time, you can only get most 1/6 as exclusive release .. at exclusive prices ..

^ 1/6, look at hottoys, bloody expensive. Although u have to consider extra factors like outfit/armor, joints, etc.
1/6 can also be oversized; Kotobukiya's Sakuya Crimson being the best example. 34cm up to sword handle. That means 30-31cm until head height. When hottoys male characters are 12 inch/30cm, and Sakuya is just as tall, it makes sakuya seem like a giant (for japanese females) which is an estimated 180cm or above in height. That figure is closer to 1/5. Alter's 1/7 Nanoha girls are also quite oversized.

QUOTE(EXkurogane @ Jul 1 2013, 11:10 PM) I have always taken things this way: You cant tell other people how to spend their money. It doesnt matter where it came from as long it is by legal means. If i see a girl spending thousands on branded clothes and bags i wont call it a misuse or wasting either. It's her right to spend her money the way she wants as long she knows how to control her spending and practice. So, i dont want to hear from others telling me how i should spend my money. Even my parents know that they have no word on my spending, as long i practice moderation, even if the my pocket money comes from them. My dad bought a $90,000 bike, but my mum doesnt complain as well, even if that money is better spent on a car. That's the kind of thinking we have. Things like "If i had that much money i would donate to..." are only something that hypocrites say. A person who says something like this, if he wins a lottery, he is stil more likely to use it for his own interests. And where does the lottery money comes from? Also other people. Just like JPA scholarship is from taxpayer's money. For lottery money, the money comes from people who "willingly" contributes, while for tax, it's mandatory. The 'spend money as you want" should only applicable if you earn the money yourself. My take for scholarship comes from taxpayer money is this: Taxpayers are investor, in which we expect something good will come out from the money we invest. As why your mum doesn't complain.. it's because your dad earned his own money. If your dad bought that 90k bike with your mom's money, I would say the opposite will happen  Even I will not complain if let's say, you are already working.
