Wow. That's a lot! Nice figure of Nero. I love the details on the dress, but her face kinda turns me off a bit. That's cheap indeed for a Nanoha figure. It's great that you finally got your hands on it. =D |

Anyway, here's my contribution for the thread. I was lucky to find the GSC Sakura figure for only $35. It's small, but the details are pretty good. |

I am so jealous of your K-ON figures :P I only have a Mugi, Suwako, Ui and Yui (At least I got my fave character ^^) from the Prop Plus Petite series (the anime store I got them from discontinued before I could get Azunyan :< ) and it is so damn hard for me to find anime figurines in my area

I picked up the petit nendoroids, the five instrumental versions and the secret MoeMioKyun. More than enough for me when it comes to K-ON
Spoiler for Large image:
So much space Compared to yours, mine looks like a storage room, with no possible chance to arrange something stylish in it Kuroyukihime nendo is up for pre-order and a Kotobukiya Yozora to pair up with their previous Meat

Also for figures that have already sold out everywhere (or Prize figures) I have recently become a fan of Mandarake. Of course it's all luck whether you get it, but prices are way better than EBAY.

I am giving both a try, lets see how the two compare. Figma Sengoku Nadeko and Hatsune Miku from AmiAmi. Figma Senjougahara Hitagi and Asuka Langley from Mandarake. Most of the time the drawback for ordering from Japan is shipping. For comparison; I bought my Soul of Chogokin GX-46 and GX-60, they are heavy, and shipping on GX-60 was already at $35 USPS first class (Texas-East Coast ). >_< Thank God the heavier GX-46 shipping was free courtesy of Amazon. Cheers! |

I do all my ordering from HLJ and never have a problem, I would pick SAL to save money on shipping at the very most it took 1 extra week vs EMS and was half the cost in fact some orders arrived with in the same time frame.
Only downside to HLJ and other sites based in Japan their prices are based on the daily changing exchange rates which are adding up to 20-30 percent more on the cost since the USD is not as strong their as it use to be. |

For shipping I tend to go for SAL registered. In terms of cost it's inbetween EMS & regular SAL but you still get some tracking & insurance.
Although I hate the whole signing aspect of registered mail, I tend to be too nervous to ship by regular SAL with no tracking info. As for cost well the exchange rate sucks right now but from what I've seen American retailers charge more money anyways because well they are also ordering the item from Japan. So if you order from the US your shipping might be less but the item cost is usually more (especially since an item can be heavily discounted on Japanese sites)
