Happy day today for a change. I came home and there was a parcel on the table for me.
It's the Max Factory Kureha figure from Shining Wind. I'd been chasing one for a while and finally found one that wasn't $200+ USD. It cost me $140 USD including postage. Probably still a bit much but it's the first figure I'd seen and wanted before I even saw the anime or played the game. I've since played the game and watched the Shining Tears X Wind anime and I really like Kureha's character. So beautiful... Only gripe there are a couple of marks where her sleeves have rubbed against her right boot and upper left thigh. I'll get out my modeling kits on the weekend and and touch it out. Otherwise I love it.

I got the same miyafuji on order as well.
Well today my long nearly 9 month wait is over my Roberta from Black Lagoon statue finally came in. HLJ screwed me and canceled my order and I managed to find one on Ebay for actually a little less than them shipped. I'll still use them but taking more pre-orders than they could fill is bad and should never happen. They should have let me know sooner because finding one was almost impossible and waiting nearly 2 years for a potential re-release no way. Don't have pics yet but here is some other persons which is the exact same as mine. http://picasaweb.google.com/terrycyh...=embedwebsite# |

KONAMI Shakugan no Shana II Figumate
By the time I heard of it and got to the store, there was only one box left from the entire pack of 10. Luckily there was Shana inside and not only that but the FlameHaze version too Spoiler for Shana:
And I got a cute little Petit Studio Stage2 Gundam SEED Destiny - Meer Campbell Spoiler for Petit Meer:

The next figure I'm going to get I think will be the Max Factory Real Image 1/6 Yoko. Damn that looks unbelievable.

Has anyone ever bought from http://www.animewild.com ? I'm thinking of buying Kotobukiya's Komari Kamikita from them, but only because I can't find her anywhere else. I heard animewild's really bad with preorders, is that true for instock items, too?

I've never dealt with them before all I know is that US based companies are the worst when pre-ordering. They get the item 1-3 months after release at the earliest if they get it at all and they always over charge instead of MSRP.
I looked the figure you want is long sold out and out of production, so if that site has it I say go for it. It's over 15 dollars cheaper than MSRP and probably much cheaper to ship. The only thing I don't like when I viewed that site was it doesn't say if anything is in stock or out of stock/out of print. Just call or email them to make sure you don't waster your time waiting if they don't have it in stock which would mean they'll have zero chance of re-ordering another one. Saw a statue I have on order not only were they charging 60 dollars more, it said add to cart. Which is bull because HLJ doesn't get it till some time at the end of June and more than likely will ship it in July. It should have said pre-order and expected shipping etc. |

And yeah, make sure you don't pre-order anything, I have had nothing but problems pre-ordering from US retailers. Toyslogic delaying some of my Clannad items has become a monthly occurrence now and Animenation didn't notify me until months after the scheduled release date that the Kotomi figure orders had all been cancelled (luckily by that point I had already given up on them and had gotten it elsewhere). |

This week I just recieved two new nendoroids MikuMiku Kagami (Lucky star Kagamin cosplaying as Matsune Miku from Vocaloid) and second hand goddes Nagi-sama (those who don't understand the joke please refer to sankakucomplex xD)
Here are two resized pics of those new bigheads: Spoiler for Resized:
And this is a picture of my still-growing Nendoroid army (someday I'll start a war for the control of the Nendo-world xD): Spoiler for Nendoarmy:
