There's now

3x BRS PVCs (plus a rerun)
1x BRS Nendo
1x BRS Figma
2x Dead Master PVC
1x Dead Master Nendo
1x Figma Dead Master
1x Set Nendo BRS and Dead Master
1x Figma Mato
1x Wonfes Set of Yomi / Mato Nendo Petits
1x Gold Saw PVC
1x Gold Saw Nendo
1x Gold Saw Figma
1x Strength PVC
1x Strength Nendo
1x (2?) White Rock Shooter (Figma?)

It IS pretty amazing for something that only existed as an illustration until recently but personally i'm pretty sick of the series already

.

In other news , bought a Max Factory Mio for HK750 / $96 from Locus including shipping . Decent deal for something fairly hard to find

I am a major BRS fan, so I'm collecting all the Nendos and Figmas. But uh... getting my hands on WRS is going to be a problem. Guess I'll have to hope for another factory leak and grab it off eBay... I'd love to grab the game, but it's too expensive.

Yeah, luckily they made that because the 1/2000 kit is a little TOO much at €1800 exc. taxes

After thinking it was Guren from CG and realising it wasn't, I decided to have a search just cos it looked so cool. And the results were pretty trippy.

It's called the A.R.K Cloud breaker- a transforming plane. Which led me to the SA-77, another plane in the series. Which ends up pointing to a game from 1986, Silpheed. Yeah apparently it's that old.

....sure you're seen it somewhere?

I thought mecha figurines weren't supposed to be posted here?

Nightbat® · 2011-02-08, 19:07

They sporadically appear
There doesn't seem to be a mecha-figures thread and I guess there was never a need

that thing is still close to 300 USD. To much for my wallet. Got my Phantom Minds Feito figure. Huge box. Pictured with nendroid Tenshi for comparison

Shipping and customs must had been big on a large box like that? Unlucky.

Saying that, my two figures from HLJ that arrived last week came in a small box but both are 1/8 figures, was shocked by that.

Just seen something pretty awesome today at Hobby Frontier.

http://www.hobby-frontier.com/sanada...form-ver..html

She is 1/6 can is fully cast off, but for over £90 it is too much for me, hopeful the price will go down if their retailers deal changes.

Zeroryoko1974 · 2011-02-09, 11:08

It cost me about 50 bucks (31 £) in shipping. USA doesn't charge customs on toys and models

@Zeroryoko1974: Be sure to post some pictures of Fate. I would love some closer images to stare at whilst knowing that I'll never be able to afford/buy it.

So many figures seen at Wonfes I want, like the 1/8 scale Imca and Riela from VC3. They looked amazing. Plus Alter are doing a Bakemonogatari line which saddens me.

My GSC Senjogahara came in the post not too long ago.
I took this picture as a joke reply to someone else's image they took of her lower half. It's meant to be a 'What are you looking at down there?' kind of image.

It's a fantastic figure, the detail on the stationary and the figure itself is awesome.

Well it's the 'crown jewel' of my collection
owning all of the 1/60 (ver 1.0) and 1/48 SDF Macross valkyries
So I was willing to shell out some money for it

Qikz · 2011-02-09, 14:46

Ooh, my HMO Miku Nendo is being delivered tommorow.

Revan21 · 2011-02-09, 15:18

And I got my Hinagiku nendoroid. It has some faults (the two additional faces do not fit in the head without some greasing) but she's absolutely adorable

The only thing I cannot figure out is why did they include a nekomimi and tail accessories when she never wore those

Gault · 2011-02-10, 04:36

Seitsuki · 2011-02-10, 15:11

.....wow, that price is... insane. What a ridiculous attempt at profiteering.. My view is that up to 20% markup is acceptable, and that is... almost a 200% markup. Seriously. Think I'll wait and get her from the GSC site after all.

edit: scratch that. ordered her. But you'd better hurry, GSC stops accepting orders on the 13th. Don't pay friggin 90$, pay the 4k yen like you're supposed to >.> (and even with proxy fees I guarantee it'll still be craploads cheaper)

I Pre-ordered mine from Hobby-Frontier for £58.68 (GBP). I could had got it cheaper by an Proxy, but I don't have to pay till June for her, so that's worth it over an Proxy who wanted paid first.

This just came in as an Pre-Order at Hobby Frontier! Great price as well, really thinking of reserving her, but I already have 4 Pre-Orders in May.

Nice figures there Zeroryoko1974 by the way, what Anime are they from?
