Japanese Vinyl and Figures V10Anime Figures (アニメのフィギュア)Figure collecting and the otaku come hand in hand. In fact, figure collecting has been called the otaku’s “drug of choice.” The hobby as a whole can be quite overwhelming to the new comer with so many different brands, models, and sometimes outrageous prices. It can be a lot to take and at times will scare off those interested. Why Collect Anime Figures?Collecting as a hobby in general is nothing new. People collect all sorts of things, be it the classics like stamps and baseball cards or the more odd choices out there. Anime figure collecting can really be seen as a supplement to a love of anime and manga, because the characters portrayed in the figures are almost always from anime and manga. This is really where the appeal comes for many. Figures are a way to take your favorite characters off of the 2D screen or page and put them right in front of you. Individual figures can be appealing because of their detail, general style or mixture of both. releasing March 2014, hotly discussed in the last thread This post has been edited by General_Nic: Oct 19 2013, 12:10 PM

Top 8...!!!  Anyway,for my first post on v10,I should start big (accidentally posted this on v9 before realising v10 was out)...I know there are a lot of Griffon "fans" here,so thoughts on this 1/2.5 scale giant...? Just curious because they're also releasing Asuna in this so-called Super Figure line...

Just curious because they're also releasing Asuna in this so-called Super Figure line... huge sized figures are usually better for those with many details. This figure's just wearing a swimsuit and that's it. So I'll say it's not worth it just like that 1/2 super duper Sonico last time. No people will bother to look at.  If Koto made that Olivia in this scale I'll say shuddup and take ma monneh~.

If Olivia is in 1/2 scale. windspan and height is 4 x 4 ft leh.. damn big. Must be damn expensive for price and delivery .. and displaying her is a problem...

Yeah, another disadvantage for huge size figure is high chance they'll be damaged during delivery. so I'll say 1/6 for Olivia is the ideal scale. But like I said I wont mind if she's 1/2.
