Gotta thank limfreelance for pointing me towards this thread...
I'm looking for some female figure with armor/weapon (sexy is good, but not blatantly naked cause the wife/daughter might not be too thrill about it), mainly for display purpose. Prefer fantasy setting... Would appreciate if someone can point me towards the right direction or even if they can suggest something. Thanks! |

QUOTE(WingNut @ May 10 2016, 11:24 AM) yes, ciel is my favourite too. as for alisa, i included that figure as it had a nice dynamic pose. personally, i prefer this swimsuit version of her: It does have a nice action pose... but the upper body/clothing kinda looks unattractive to me. Cant put my finger on it.. perhaps looks too stretched?[attachmentid=6604972] |

QUOTE(WingNut @ May 10 2016, 12:17 PM) here you go... but estimate release in jan 2017 urgh... 2017... http://www.nippon-yasan.com/16617-tower-of...hadow-wing.html Usually these figures do you guys buy from local hobby shop (with a huge margin added), or order direct from some online page? Or getting it from say HK would be easier/cheaper cause I can just hop by HK easily on my regular trip to the states... This post has been edited by MeToo: May 10 2016, 12:22 PM |

QUOTE(EXkurogane @ May 13 2016, 12:02 PM) Im not a fan of number 2 and 3's body proportions either, i actually wanted to recommend those two as well. Hmm... if want to order.. where do you suggest I order it from?The character design is dependent on the original artist, it's a trademark of that artist's style. Big boobs, hips and thighs, it is unrealistic for sure. But those two are great figures, no doubt about it. The first one is releasing in June 2016 (there are possibilities of delays though), a new product - and it is a hot item, her price might go up after release. Also... I notice you selling the Sakuya... you wont be around KL/Klang Valley anytime soon? |

QUOTE(dis0rd3h @ May 13 2016, 01:11 PM) To answer no 2 and 3:  B-blasphemy! No one in their sane mind would reject ample bosoms and bountiful rear ends! In all seriousness, the figures are just representations of the original illustrations. Artists for figures 1 and 2, like kurogane mentioned, really likes extreme proportions. As for figure 1, she's still available for pre-order, but you might wanna decide quick: http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gc...0%24pagecnt%3D1. Got discount! I luv discounts!! AmiAmi site is good? sorry to sound like a nub cause I am |

QUOTE(killerjeya @ May 13 2016, 01:43 PM) Ordered a few times, no issues so far...Got a rather expensive (by my low standards i agree... very impressive piece, how much is it CIF? ) preorder with them too, due August, so for me, quite trustworthy...The preorder in question is this monster here: Doesn't scream sexy, but I just can't get enough of that armour...  Back is pretty hot though... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |

QUOTE(killerjeya @ May 13 2016, 02:38 PM) Almost 1k...Making my eyes water the more I think about it...Sayonara, my hard earned cash... 1k... nice... that cost as much as my parang liao... this hoppy is pretty expensive stuff  My opinion of Amiami: No.1, hands down...Nippon Yasan is good for getting exclusive releases (like the Saber), but for everything else, Amiami is my go-to shop...Can even get awesome bargains at their pre-owned section...Buy with confidence... Eh at 1k... you wont kena Kastam? What's the tax rate for figurine? I worry they later say "ini too sexy, haram" then confiscate... Also on amiami.. what does "Released" means? Cause it seems its cheaper then even pre-owned?? http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gc...0%24pagecnt%3D4 |

QUOTE(killerjeya @ May 13 2016, 03:09 PM) Anything above RM500 has a chance to be taxed...Depends on luck too I guess...One of the perks with Nippon yasan is they will undervalue the item if you request for it...Just ask to put a value of less than RM500, lessens significantly the chances of being stopped by Kastam...Of course, if the box is HUGE, and the value stated is ridiculously low, it might still trigger some flags... That's very clear! Really appreciate it.Items tagged "Released" on Amiami means exactly that, the item is in stock, ready for immediate shipment...That particular item you linked, the Released one was originally priced higher, should be around retail price...Then the preowned ones showed up, obviously priced lower...But then, Amiami decided to offer a huge discount on the Released one (normally happens when a figure doesn't sell so well, so big discounts are given to clear stock)...Amiami just didn't bother to adjust the preowned ones to reflect the reductions on the new Released one... I dont know.. I'm always attracted by the word "discount", maybe its the trader mentality within me... haha... anyway I think I will go ahead with that figure to give it a try. Any comments (especialyl negative ones) to offer a newbie on that figure? |
