HOPE GSC ANNOUNCE RE-RELEASE OF LACIA DURING WONFES. ALTER, WHERE'S YOKO'S RE-RELEASE?  biggrin.gif

LOL...Lucky then that I PO'd this time,so goreng all you want...XD Jokes aside,I predict her price is going to skyrocket again as soon as she sells out...As for Lacia,I'm hoping too (saw one on Mandarake 2 days ago for 30000 yen rclxub.gif )...

There's a good chance Lacia will be re-released, if you look at this poll page of GSC for figures we want to be re-released.

OMG,somebody actually bought it...??? Thats almost RM1000...!!! shocking.gif But I imagine the guy who bought it would get a heart attack if the re-release is announced next week or so at WonFes... brows.gif Hmm,quite a few others in that poll release is tempting,especially Holo... smile.gif

30K yen is still cheap; Lacia's actual market value is RM 1200 now.

And here I am,stalking sites for cheap bargain bin/pre-owned figures...I don't think I can bring myself to cough up more than RM500 for any figure...

Then you wont have many chances to own limited/exclusive figures. I dont own many of them simply because most of them im not interested in.
My Saber Lily Distant Avalon, i paid almost 600 bucks for her despite knowing she will be re-released soon (for around RM 450) long ago, because 1st batch release is always better than a re-released batch. And i never regretted it because mine is pretty much perfect, while re-released batches do have Quality Control issues with her dress.

Many Native figures, provided u like X rated figures, are in RM 500+ territory or higher after release. Even Orchid Seed/Amakuni's Seven Deadly Sins figures (2 or 3 out of the seven are exclusive i think) are skyrocketing in price. I want Amakuni's Leviathan (also exclusive) but somehow no more budget for her, and she is going for 14,000-16,000yen in YJA; including shipping i fear will kena tax already.
*
True enough,most exclusive/limited figures are out of my league...But then again,not many such figures cater to my taste...Sure,I do yearn for certain exclusives,most recently (funny you should mention Amakuni) Dark General,but I just can't bring myself to pay that much...So I make do with slightly more affordable ones,like Ignis(Endless Winter)...The one figure I couldn't resist ordering despite the price tag is Miku:Deep Sea Girl... Add Dizzy to the list,and I'm gonna burn holes in my pockets,possibly igniting my underwear too,WITHOUT any exclusives laugh.gif ...Probably have to survive on maggi this november/december... sweat.gif

now in prototype primer gray colour you can see all the details so it looks nice
but final colour will be black, a lot of details will be lost
One part of me is hoping you're wrong and she turns out just as magnificent as it looks now...Another part though hopes you're right,so I won't be as tempted to buy her (among others) and go broke...What a dilemma... rclxub.gif

If the PVC's turn out half as good as these resin kits,my wallet is in big trouble...Not particularly a fan of Busou Shinki (love the Gundam AGPs though),but these girls look awesome...

As for this one, I am both deeply amazed and utterly terrified...On one side,this is the most creative Miku I've ever seen...On the other,I feel like I'm betraying Miku by going over to the dark side with this "Resident Evil" Miku... sweat.gif

I actually thought of ordering one from e2046 before, costs RM 6XX, and they paint it for you
What stopped you...? I'm not all too familiar with their stuff, but from what I hear, the quality matches,if not surpasses those of other big name companies...?

Knowing how "careful" our postal workers handle packages,especially ones clearly marked Fragile,I guess its safe to assume if I ever order any resin/coldcast/polystone figure, I will get a box full of fragments and dust... And speaking of tax,the only time I had to pay,I shipped with FedEx,so I just paid to the delivery guy...What about others like EMS or SAL...?

^ Im not that familiar, but i heard EMS gets captured by customs easily.
The garage kit, when mailed to you, are in various parts, and you have to assemble it yourself, which is safer. So far my experience with Pos Laju in my hometown is very good, but Pos Malaysia treats your parcel like basketball.

If u use SAL > parcel pass to Pos Malaysia; if you use EMS > parcel pass to pos laju. Imagine ordering an expensive GK and at the same time, have to pay even more for shipping just to be extra safe. So far for SAL, took me only 12-14 days to get it, but EMS = 5 days. I dont mind waiting another week to save shipping cost but we dunno WTF is Pos Malaysia doing with our parcels...
*
Wait,does e2046 offer pre-painted GK's...? I've only seen the PVC ver. of some GK's,not actual painted GK's...And as my personal rule of thumb,I just EMS anything above RM300-350...

My fav Racing Miku so far has been last year's one (GSC,not Freeing), but I think I like this one more...That said,I'd love to see this one below getting the PVC treatment...

I shall show the Miku fans all the xxx Miku doujins then... and also her Makaizou figures...

I dont get it - a figure, even if it is naked or wearing bikini, is not lewd in itself, it depends on the pose; unless the pose suggests that it is making a lewd, slutty or similar gestures/poses (such as Alphamax's Saeki Ai, but that's understandable since she is a character from a hentai series).
People just think too much and not open minded enough, even in this era of modern society.
*
I actively try to avoid doujins and makaizous of Miku (and a few other characters)...As much as I appreciate the craftsmanship and effort that goes into making them,I need a "safe zone"...OFC,any other character is fair game...XD

As for the mentality of people,there will always be haters...The same people who think nude paintings are art may say a "risque" figure is just plain lewd...If you ask me,both qualify as art in their own rights... Personally, I think if the collector buys a figure (even if it is something like Ai Saeki) to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship in a non-lewd way,how is it any different than say,getting a bottle of fine wine or collecting antiques...? Its all a matter of perception...

order limit is max 3 units.
shipping is flat 2k yen per order.
but what i worry is, the saving in shipping, will end up going to custom for the tax....sigh.... sad.gif
*
If if does get sangkut at kastam,how much would the tax be...? I checked out Nippon-Yasan,total for 3 figures+EMS is 29540 yen,about 5000 yen more than GSC Shop...From feedback by customers,apparently N-Y undervalues goods if you request, so you may escape kastam if you're lucky...?

I see, 3 units. Last nendos was 5 units, but probably because of smaller box size.

Nendo Miku:Strawberry Kimono was also capped at 3 units...
