Anyone getting these...
GSC's 1/8 Madoka Maiko ver (the umbrella one), 10,000yen - limited/exclusive.
FREEing's 1/8 Madoka Yukata, 8800yen, April 2014 release.
A+'s 1/4.5 Katsuragi (Senran Kagura), 14,800yen, Oct 2013 release.

Erm, took me around 6 hours, i split it into 2 days to work on. I go with blank background, outdoors, or build my own stuff. It's random - depending on the character im taking photos of. Sci-Fi themed characters give me the most headache when it comes to figuring out what to use for background.

Agree. It's too soon.

Very nice, but too poor.


Looks like something by Yamato, err, Arcadia. The Art of Shunya style is there.

If kena kastam, i think is box size (so they suspect the value is over RM 500, then tax lo). Bikini sure no problem. I have had ero figures pass without issues.

When i started around 3 years ago, it was also "too late" kind of feel to me, but not as bad as starting now. Within a year i save like crazy hunting down Haruhi Gekisou, Saber Lily Distant Avalob, BRS Origoinal Cannon ver, etc. They are bloody expensive to me (when compared to my previous hobby of building mostly Master Grade Gunpla)... So, you can imagine how bad the state i was in - as i save up these famous figures become more and more rare month by month, and i was lucky to have most of the older figures i wish to have now. Only a few left that are either too rare/expensive by now, or the kind of figure im fine without having them (low priority).

Lower than i though, 8550yen like that. Im waiting for the bikini one with 2 giant yellow dildos behind, might order that one. And seems like im not the only one who thinks this looks like Captain Liliana

I actually agree with your point. But, i will only order IF the pantsu is removable. This pervert here needs to confirm that before ordering. Because oppai is too mainstream.

I dunno the scale - if 1/6 then might be catsoffable, if 1/8, i would say no. But it is possible to have cast off without having seams or overly think bra/bikini. If u owned Orchid Seed figures, you should know - you usually swap a big chunk - usually even a whole or half of the body, to remove parts. Genius figure design that i even cant think of.
Velvet is 1/8, leading me to guess this one is also 1/8.

Iris Heartley (Oh, the bikini with tank girl) is 1/6! XD
Wish for a castoff is now increased~

EDIT: I think the answer is castoff-able. The clue is the 2 metal rings on her hips - that's where you remove the legs (so that seams are not visible) in order to remove the pantsu by sliding it down.
The most common trick used by Orchid Seed as well.

But i havent solved the mystery of the method which enables the removable of top bikini. But her purple outfit at the side is a clue - i believe it serves to hide some seam lines as well. I believe part swapping could be involved.

10-15% or the total value i think

Nevermind, we still have this coming later

Looks so awkward, and the pose is so stiff.

Agree, or the body is too thin/small somehow... Come on, she is not some African kid with no food...

You open shop or muzium?

Lucky, i took the preorder of a lowyat member here. Was already desperate months back. Right now im saving like crazy since she's expected to be out in Sepetember, probably have to cut down my expenditure even in food. CJC that day already damage my wallet-chan~

FARK.
Both good news amd bad news to me. I'll somehow manage. That means my textbook money have to go to figures first ady, and i shud start eating grass. Shud be able to manage somehow. Occasionally i take loans from my mum, then she deduct my weekly pockt money later to pay back. I tot september. =.=

EDIT: Apparently not yet release, but there are indeed a few units appearing on Mandarake (later snapped up), and some sites are collecting the payment first. That pretty much means it's very soon, probably within 1st week of Sept. Cant let my guard down.

Can easily find her for ~RM 350 now. But heh, too many preorders to watch out, cant buy. Im buying a DSLR for figure photography in mid september, that weekend before Bolehland day. After than muz save for some accessories and another lens summor.

First, i would like to apologize to qll mirrorless camera owners.

Mirrorless is small and feels like something a pu$$y uses although it takes good photos. Back at CJC i only saw guys using DSLRs, (in addition to those using compact P&S and phones), but didnt see any dudes using mirroeless ones - only females, and saw another idiot who actually bought a Galaxy camera, which the quality is worse than the camera on Nokia's phones, and only excels in zoom). In fact I feel embarrassed to be seen with a point and shoot that i'd rather use my phone (because it's mainstream, and i can post online immediately). My sister also agrees, she says mirrorless is more famous and widely used among females.

Some sarcasm/insulting aside, to be honest, i prefer DSLR because of flexibility, choice of lenses is wider including 3rd party, and i plan to do more advanced stuff as i gather experience including study style photography using multiple flashguns and its slave units with a wireless trigger. I have used DSLRs before, just that i dont own one yet.

LOL, im just being honest with what i think, really. My sister does want a Panasonic Lumix GF series mirrorless cam, but for me, no, i need a DSLR, I like the bulk of a DSLR actually.
