Not that I'm interested in bishi-figures, but I wouldn mind getting some quality figures of the more prominent male characters - now, I'm lucky if I can find just one of them and in most cases it will be a trading figure (like Harima Kenji from School Rumble) Although now they are even putting English and other subtitles on the BRS DVD or on the Haruhi BluRay. I think that a sign of improvement

And yeah, they don't think about those outside of Japan, but it's not an active dislike or burning hatred; they're just blissfully ignorant and let the stores who ship their figures worldwide handle the foreigners. I wouldn't say that we're on their B& list, even though I do wonder at the significance and point of exclusive online releases and what exactly they're trying to accomplish. Unlike eroge makers. who outright hate foreigners, the arses. |

Finally ordered my display case today but will take a while for them to prepare and ship it so I have to wait more, uuu. Still, will be nice to have a place to keep them safe from kitties while showing them off.
Particularly since I've discovered the value of at least one of them now. ;.; ~Triple its original price. I guess some figures just appreciate well. I really want a Sonic Fate, but they're not selling for under $400 USD anymore which makes me very sad. |

True that, I still haven't taken mine out of the box yet. Thanks again for posting yours, it's a really good figure even with the extra baggage.

And there's the matter of female collectors wanting all their favourite bishis to be released, but I'm not really interrested in that

GAR, obviously (for I'm a man).
I would certainly buy Harima Kenji, Simon, Archer, Kyon, Alto (Macross F), Nozomu Itoshiki (Zetsubou-sensei), Jeremiah "Orange-kun" Gotttwald (CodeGeass), Alucard + Alexander Anderson in a large PVC-format

Maybe Bandai asked so much for the copyright that no one bought it - except for Megahouse
The Bride figures turned out nice, I think...

I bought the C.C romantic variation online on ebay since i reckon it was the best looking one but there are bootlegs of those now. Reason why i asked how i check for bootlegs >.< But the person i bought it off was located in Japan so i think i should be fine, plus it look pretty fine to me. They might release a red dress version but i dunno if that was real >.> I've also made a MyFigureCollection account if anyone wants to add me :P I just started collecting so i won't have any super good figures lol http://myfigurecollection.net/profile/Renya Last edited by Renya; 2010-07-19 at 13:16. |
