Don't worry, I'm another one without a loli figure.

To be honest, I'm not a fan of loli's to begin with, so it makes sense that all my figures are mature.

hehe, cool cool...now i dont feel like a loner anymore.
the closest to loli figure i have is Airi from Queen's Gate

[alamarco]

I would say the closest figure I have is probably Haruhi. And she's not even close to a loli. Age wise I would have to say Chopper from One Piece, but he's not even human.

[grylsyjaeger]

I didn't even know what the hell a loli was until I googled it.

I've only got three figures. One is the 1/8 scale Alicia Melchiott from Valkyria Chronicles, Toyworks 1/8 scale Rei Miyamoto from Highschool of the Dead and the Atelier-Sai 1/6 scale Kaname figure.

I prefer to have it and hear people complaining about than not having and hear my own complains for not having tem

[Marcus_rel]

I personally don’t own any loli figurines, just figurines from a couple of visual novels turned anime series. The scope and breadth of Kitsune’s collection is what’s totally amazing to me, I can’t afford half of the figurines he’s got! LOL.

LOL, I think 60-70% of my figure collection is loli.

[C.A.]

My main bulk of loli is Nagato Yuki.

But loli is not the majority of my collection, I've about as many Yuki as Mikuru and a little more Haruhi than each of them.

Maybe 30 - 40% of my figures are lolis.

ahem... I have a feeling you and several other posters were just virtually thumped by all the adult mature women in the world with "loli" body shapes. "mature" does not equal "full figured" or "lotso boob".

My collection is a diverse mix. I tend to purchase based on the character personality and the series. So I have everything from Vita to Yoko to Hazuki to Kagami to Motoko to Nerine and in between. One thing I lack completely are ARIA figures ... argh. must... find...

Depends on the definition of loli too. Personally, I generally only use loli for anime girls under 13 or so. Above that I would use terms like DFC, petite, etc. That said, I know where you're coming from. I've actually run into a few shoulder height (compared to my 5'10), DFC girls around my age who are hot. Not just cute, but genuinely hot.

As a general rule, I haven't had the money to get into figures. However, a guy I know gave me a Yuki Nagato figure for free after accidentally ordering two. It's the catgirl cosplay one that can change colour according to temperature - apparently I'm the biggest catgirl fan he knows.

[Mariko Kurama]

I have Shana, Illya, Asuka, Hazuki and Amy figures, and I guess Al Azif would fit in there too. But apart from that, my collection is non-loli .

Mature doesn't mean "full figured" or "lotso boob", it means adult. Not a child. Not sure how an adult mature woman can have a "loli" body shape. I don't remember seeing any older women looking like they were 6-12 in age.

Really? Now that's surprising. Your blog is full of a lot of nice mature figures that I thought it would be opposite .

[Vexx]

As many people have already posted, "loli" has become a rather loose amorphous term. You're trying to use it in its original strict definition (which was somewhat loose itself).

Good luck with that idea I used to try to assert it and was routinely ignored by most everyone. "gothic lolita" fashion tended to accelerate the dilution of the term. I gave up when reading posts that decreed art styles to be "loli" like the ones used in Lucky*Star or Manabi Straight.

Oh and you might try hanging out in an asian sector more often where you can find a large collection of small women, relatively smallchested with small hips who do indeed look like a 12 year old to the uninitiated western eye. One of my wife's cousins is in her 30s and can pass for 12 in a heartbeat with the right clothing.

It was generally used in this sense but then too many people started using it willy-nilly and now people are as or more likely to think Shana, Zero no Tsukaima or Strike Witches as they are to think Nanoha or Moetan when they hear "loli". You need to be more specific if you expect people to understand you..

Interesting Yoko figure there. I knew you occassionally got figures of characters in cosplay, but they don't seem that common.
