That looks like a sweet figure .

My only preorder right now is the silver-haired Moka. I can't wait for it to get in, but I think the release date is August! So much time waiting .

is it some sort of exclusive?

[dfens]

Yeah it's a exclusive figma Reika from Gantz.

They only sale the figure plus the raw japanese manga volume 26 as a set. Costs about 50 dollars US about double what a regular figma series figure retails for.

I could care less about the manga, I just want the figure. And as of now it's a limited release figure, place I ordered it already has halted all new orders and this is within 1-2 days of pre-order. Placed mine the first day.

Should have ordered more than one.

I'm pissed. My HotD Saeko order was cancelled due to unavailability. I'd already paid for the bloody thing.

Now I've got to find something worth getting with my credit whilst getting the figure I actually want somewhere else.

Last weekend was one of my most expensive weekends ever. I went to pick up my preordered items and found a couple of rare limited edition items in shop and decided to buy them all.

Spoiler for pics:

I preordered the Chara-Ani exclusive Miyuki and Tsukasa, completing my whole Lucky Star Nendoroid Set, except for the Wonderfest Saber Konata and Rin Kagami, which I regret till this day for not getting. Then I also found the wonderful(but very expensive ) Excelica PS2 Nendoroid and the super rare Hachune Miku Nendoroid.

While picking up my Haruhi and Mikuru cheerleader Figma, I found the exclusive Suzaku and Shana. Too bad I don't have the normal version Suzaku and black hair Nendoroid Shana.


This one isn't a Figma or figure, its actually a plastic model kit. She's Valsione of Super Robot Wars. Despite having an anime character's face, she's s powerful super robot standing at 20 metres. You can see in this pic, but she has long hair which can also move a little. Its one of the most unique plastic kits ever, having a resin head and hair along with her unique mecha design.

fallschirmjager try hobby link japan that's where I got my Saeko figure and it's in stock now. Here is the link

I got mine from HLJ as well. I'm surprised Saeko is still in stock. Usually everything at HLJ sells out so fast that I never get a chance to order from them.

[grylsyjaeger]

Hmm sounds good. It's cheaper than some of the ebay ones of seen.

Anyone know of anything good I could get off PlayAsia with a credit of $125 USD?

I'm thinking of waiting for the Mikuru adult figure but I think this'll be the last time I buy anything off PA again.

Because I know the shop owner well, he gave me a good price cut.

The Hachune Miku + Suzaku + Shana's original price together was 360 SGD, but he sold them to me at 255 SGD, more than 100 dollars off lol

The Figmas' were 110 SGD each, probably reduced to 80 each or something. Hachune would be 140 SGD to 100 SGD.

I think the price is alright, considering they're super rare stuff, even the Lucky Star Nendoroids which you can order using magazines are much more expensive, the limited edition game Figma and Nendoroids were the most expensive though.

Anyway for Singaporeans: Hachune Miku, Suzaku and Shana were from Ng's Collections, he may still have a couple of Shanas. The other Figma and Nendoroids are from KKNM, Valsione is from Toys N Toys.

nice deal...thats a really nice deal

do you guys have super high import tax or what?
like you mentioned, figma are 110 - 80 SGD each
that's around 89 - 68 Canadian Dollar
And the price for figma at my local store are only 42-54 CND

I thought shipping to SG would be slightly cheaper than to CND as well...

and i checked on HLJ, if u request SAL shipping the figure u got only cost 45 SGD (according to xe.com)

Nah that's only for the Suzaku and Shana because they're rare items.

Normal Figma costs 40 - 50 SGD as well, plus all my memberships of shops everywhere, I can get them with discounts and bonuses lol

[Astrana]

oh..... i jst got a message from my local store that san seto figma is in
yay!!! and also the super ecchi kanu lol....:P

[grylsyjaeger]

A bloke on another forum wanted some photos of the Alicia figure I had and I thought I'd post them here as well. Plus my extremely limited collection...




Photos suck I know but it's too bloody late in the day to care.

Oh there's also an Alter Kaname figure behind the Lynx can on the right somewhere.

[Ashlotte]

Some nice collections guys gotta say.

Nothings really caught my eye recently...Only have Aozaki from KnK on pre-order atm. Wallets happy atleast...

[Astrana]

woot, completed my GSD Fate/Hollow maid collection
lol, shop owner had to sell his display for me

[MakubeX2]

The scale and the details on this will command a very high cost. I suspect around the 7000-8000 yen range.

[Nightbat®]

Still beats the 15000 yen price of my Macross Valkyries =)

[dfens]

That's not too much my Roberta on back order is over 16800 yen plus shiping which is probably going to cost me 4000-5000 EMS insured since the price and weight requires EMS which I don't mind.
