Question, the RM500 amount that set by customs, is that the items' amount only or together with shipping cost?

Together with shipping cost... CIF, cost insurance freight

Niiice. I myself am considering the tanned version. How big is she? How much did she cost to ship?

her height, as listed in myfigurecollection is approx 15.5cm... but i think she's bigger (see attached pic). i haven't unwrapped her so i'm hoping that skirt clasp isn't a defect. i must say, this is one lovely daiki. nippon-yasan had her shipped for ¥2,700.

Congrats on ur figure

Coming up: Shiro by Phat Company up on AmiAmi

Shiro

psychedelic man...

Not sure if I should get that Shiro. Already have one from Koto

imho koto's shiro looks nicer...

We have the same opinion. That is why I am hesitated to order this. Plus the price

Way more detailed than Koto's, Ordered.

Do you have the koto version?

Also, side question but what was the scale of the racing motorbike u used for sepang miku photoshoot? How bout the scale of the race car you're going to use?

the chief has spoken. yeah... the colours are more vibrant but i prefer the muted pastel hues on the koto, and she has a much nicer pose. but i guess it all boils down to personal preference.

I didnt have that one but i have personally seen it in ACG events, displayed. It was a mixed bag, some people received units with quality control issues (typical of Koto), and given how her after market value has gone up given its demand, rather than pay more for Koto's version (or resorting to a BIB one) I'd rather go for something newer. The fact that i can have all the characters in one set with the Phat one makes it a tempting choice.

The bike was 1/9; a unit smaller than the figure's scale because i cant find a 1/8 bike.
I ordered a 1/8 preowned RC sports car all the way from USA (yea, ignoring the exchange rate), but it wasnt for Racing Miku but another figure.

True dedication.

Can't wait to see your car shoot.

The only 1/8 car I found was this but its over RM300, way above my budget.

Been tracking this one for months already.

The most highly anticipated figure ever by Huke. Gentleman, get ready.

Haha, that isn't 1/8. Plenty of them in Taobao (including Ferrari F12/La Ferrari/458 Italia, Bugatti Veyron, Lamborghini Murcielago/Aventador/Veneno, BMW i8, etc. The cars are labelled as 1/8 but they are way undersized, about 1/10 actually.

Example:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r....ucket=13#detail




So-called 1/8 scale, dimension:
48 X 21 X 11cm

Real dimensions of the car:
4780mm X 2030mm (without mirrors) X 1136mm
= 478cm X 203 cm X 113cm

That is 1/10 scale, not 1/8. You will regret buying it. All the so-called 1/8 cars from China are bullshit - unless you want it for Beach Queens figure.

The 1/8 scale car i ordered directly from USA is REAL 1/8, the car measures about 57cm X 23cm X 15cm, but it's not a lamborghini.

Gotta be extra doubtful with china goods next time
But then again, some 1/8 figures have the size of 1/10s, so that might work for certain figures.

57cm x 23cm x 15cm seems long and narrow.

Because it is a grand tourer sports car (think of, Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, Chevrolet Corvette C7, Dodge Viper, etc). Long front hood.
I scanned through taobao a lot bro, hoping for a real 1/8 but after 2 or 3 months of hunting i can't find any. =.= In the end i burn almost RM400 to import it from USA, for a preowned unit. I got a deal at only USD$30 but shipping costs another USD$65 bomb. I still burn that money because i want my ideas to be realized. And it's not often you can find a 1/8 scale giant car at only USD$30.

Haha I feel you.

I gave up until go to toys r us cari oso don't have.

However,
The quality and pricing of the 1/14 RC cars is pretty decent at toys r us. Too bad can only pose that with figmas and I'm not into figmas.

Then there's that 1/6 repsol super bike but didn't like the stickers.

Black Canary
