Airports are fine and all,just don't fall into any "traps"...

Shadow Wing...

No wonder you're so specific now...

If you're really desperate,maybe you can try out HLJ...They have something called Private Warehouse...Once you've made a purchase,you have the option of storing it there first and choosing when you want them to ship it out...If I'm not mistaken,you can keep it there for 60 days...

Holy...Look at the size of her...AXE...!!! Definitely a weapon of mASS destruction...

Forgot to mention that... The only reason I sometimes buy from HLJ is the private warehouse and their minimal packaging...Amiami normally packs their boxes full of paper,which adds considerably to shipping,whereas HLJ just wraps your figure box using shrink wrap with a cardboard base...OK for certain not-so-fragile figures I suppose...But I still prefer Amiami...

There is a chance the mass-produced ones might turn out ok...But then again, I'm only saying that because this figure is on my wishlist... Certainly hope it turns out good...

I prefer this pose compared to the meh GSC one...But somehow it still looks rather...awkward...?

This is the Shiki I like best...Kinda hard to find these days though (for a decent price that is)...

Up for PO...Dang,Deep Sea Miku in December,this one in January...I REEEAAALLY wanna PO this one too,but can I really afford two Mikus back-to-back...? Dear God,Miku is more high maintenance than most real life girls...

LoL...beat me to it ...

LoL...beat me to it ...

They're supposed to be small...

Not just anime merchandise...This is Boleh-land, I'm sure we're one of the largest consumers of EVERYTHING cetak rompak... On a side note, the organisers of these events should enforce some rules to those selling goods/figures... Asking for a total ban may be overkill, but at least customers should be informed whether they're paying for the real deal or "3rd party" figures...Those who are more experienced can tell straight away whether a figure is ori or not, but others (like myself) may be fooled into paying high prices for cheap knock-offs...To make things worse,bootlegs are getting so good,its harder than ever to tell them apart...Which is why I never buy any figures at these conventions...

Went there during the earlier stages of my "poisoning",bought a 1/4 Bridgette Satellizer (yes,a no-box one)...I wouldn't say the dude was rude or anything,just indifferent...Like it made made no difference whether I was there or not(I'm Indian,btw...) That was the first and last time I did business with that shop...That said,if you're on a tight budget/just starting, or just looking for a display piece with probably no resale value, check it out...

20,000 for a prize figure... Just looked it up,and apparently there's also a super limited signed version,with only 30 made available...Wonder how much that will fetch...

Damn, this looks friggin awesome ...But the price is a little steep though...

Try taking photos of them bimbos... At least with cosplayers you can take photos first,stare at them like a pervo later at home... (not that I do that... )


Easier to find lolis at AFA than CF...

This one made me LOL so hard, especially the name on Amiami ...XD And the pillow...!!! Even funnier, this is the one Asuna figure so far that I'm actually considering...

Now THAT is the sadistically badass Senjougahara Hitagi I've come to know and love... Really surprised they chose this particular scene from Nisemonogatari...Sure as hell does justice to the character though...



Apparently, she comes with interchangeable hands and hairstyle (I personally prefer the ponytail and handcuffs)...I only wish they could make the seams where you change the hair and hand less visible (small nitpick,and not specifically aimed at this figure,just in general)...

Another Asuna up for PO...This one is just plain wrong...Her legs look awkward,the way she's holding her rapier is also weird,IMO...
