Her price would need to drop considerably to get thru customs. hmm.gif
Plus it's by FREEing, lotsa QC issues, but I guess minor mistakes cant be avoided when we're talking about figures this scale.

Haha but on the condition that if you can't keep them anymore, must not sell them, but must give them to other people and apply same condition

I think Danny Choo not qualified to enter.. usually they will have condition like their staff, subsidiaries, partners (which Danny is one) not qualified to enter

Because they do a shit job on them... Not all but many of them. Sculpts are decent for some of them but ends up screwing up the paint job.
I did have their Touwa Erio and sold it shortly after. She's beautiful but the paintjob on her hair strands and uniform are uneven.

The Fault girls are higher tier figures, comparing to my Erio that i sold, it has ZERO faults, no issues with paint, sculpt, or QC-related problem. This figure alone gave me some confidence about them. Well, it's obvious, 10k+yen figure comparing to popular anime figures that typically go for 6800 to 7800yen...
*
Hmm the Fault girls are 1/6 though, and some more not loli characters. Hard to find 1/6 that is not loli character went to 6800~7800yen new

QUOTE(orestes @ Jun 19 2013, 03:00 PM)
yeah.. that reminds me .. sometimes ppl avoid figures that are too expensive on shipping.. especially those big boxes that can only go via EMS ..
i remember also that VN02 hatsune miku was in bargain bin for 3k+ yen only ..

Alaa if the thing you will treasure, extra cost from EMS wouldn't hurt whistling.gif

DAT ASS
1/6 scale lolipettan @27cm for only 6800yen. Seriously considering one.
Colors are a bit too bland though.

Go watch the anime called Manyuu Hikenchou and you'll understand why boobs/non-loli cost more. Both in real life and maybe already applies to figures. tongue.gif brows.gif

I dont think material is the reason; PVC is cheap. But, the amount of skill involved to carve a female body figure with natural curves and nice boobs compared to an airport runway body. The same explains why ero figures are expensive. It's all about skills of the sculptor.

That explains why many cheaper figures, the paint or sculpt of the hair is terrible. Kotobukiya's Asuna is also bad. sweat.gif
Speaking about fantastic hair sculpting, Tohsaka Rin UBW version is a very good example. It's quite complex.

well yes craftsmanship(painting and sculpting) goes into the price as well but size also has a factor (not much but still got) like the difference between 1/6 and 1/10. and a loli 1/6 is smaller than adult 1/6. tongue.gif

heck even the base can make a price difference.

Scales have no meaning in figures unless they are under the same product series. Alter's 1/7 loli girls from Nanoha are even bigger than 1/6 scale figures. And some of my 1/8 figures are bigger than my 1/7 figures.

1/6 vs 1/7 vs 1/8 are pretty in the gray area of scales
what he meant 1/10s are usually pretty cheap compared to the scales above
