Does anyone have the Fate Stay/Night "Trade Figures" from Good Smile Company? Specifically, these: 2005 Set
I'm trying to decide whether to buy them or not, but all the ones I see with pictures other than stock photos don't look nearly as good. Do the real versions generally look slightly different from those stock images, or are the ones I'm looking at knock-offs? Last edited by GDB; 2010-02-28 at 17:22. |

I've noticed other figures where stock photos show clear bases, but the actual releases have a different base, colored or textured in some way. I think the best you can do is find someone selling them on ebay, who has a good reputation, and gaurantees them to be 100% authentic. Like this. If I had the money to spare right now, that would be gone already.

Yeah, that's my main thing right now is the money. I found after searching through the FSN subforum that the actual bases are definitely white and not clear.
I was kind of hoping they were clear just so I'd know if these others I saw were knock-offs. But they also had huge reputation. I hate eBay sometimes. And since I'm bitching about eBay anyway: was about to buy some Conan figures, was merely reading up on the shipping policy. In the time it took me to read that and click buy, someone else had bought them. SO much hate. They were half the price of the other auctions. =( |

Would it be possible for you to snap a picture of at least Saber (armor), Ilya, and Rin? Thanks in advance! |

Well, as I implied I haven't really taken very good care of these figures and there's some very noticeable dust particles on them in these pics but they should still be decent enough to use as a comparison. Also, when I made that previous post, I had only been looking at Rin and Ilya; you are correct in that Saber's arm is definitely at a different angle. In fact, she looks different enough that I had to check to see if I'd even grabbed the right figure. I am positive these are authentic though, as they came completely sealed in a case of individual boxes with the Type Moon seal of authenticity. It may just be that she's leaning a bit too far forward or that I didn't put her together properly.
Anyway, pics are here, linked because file size is way too big: http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f2...ing/rinfig.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f2...ng/ilyafig.jpg (no coat, it is a nightmare to put together and I gave up) http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f2...g/saberfig.jpg |

I wouldn't be able to play the Hgame because of the language, but she is very cute. I watched the video on the game home page (the YouTube 720p version), it looks pretty nice. And that Figma blog is excellent. The pages just keep going and going.
I found some more images of that Fate/Stay Night collection. Saber in her pajamas is really cute. I haven't seen that one before.

I wasn't sure about posting these four, since only two of them were in actual anime series (and even then, one of those used a different character model at that time)... but, still.
The one on the left is a re-deco of a design seen in the same show as that on the right, but for a character from an earlier series. No, he doesn't come with that sword! That last guy's alt mode is pretty damned cool... There are a few more pics I have elsewhere, too.

Range Murata's artwork is awesome. Has anyone ever seen this figure of Tamaki Kousaka? (scroll down a little for the photo shoot) I know the one of Manaka Komaki, with the bed, in the group shot, is made by Wave as part of their DreamTech line, but I can't find that figure of Kousaka anywhere. I'm assuming that all of those are from the same manufacturer. Can anyone tell if they are? [edit]- Ah-hah! I found it (unoff. kit), along with a very cool figure database web site. http://www.figure-database.com/figur...ssom-6721.html
