Anime and Game figures

[Rated E]

I'm glad this thread was revived...I really like that figure Compass.


Not game or anime related, but I got these two at Urban Outfitters just the other day. I was happy about the Hello Kitty because it was one of those blind box things and I got the one I wanted.

I'm insanely lucky when it comes to blind boxes. I think it's sapped every other area of my life, though. I knew a girl who had tons of those little figures. It gets pricey trying to collect 'em all. There were always new designer versions from famous artists or series or something.

I got this in the mail a few days ago. Spurred me to try to wrap up the game. I have Gwendolyn and Mercedes and really wish they'd make a Pooka Prince. They're all really nice figures.

That is pretty cool, Compass.

Looks pricey.

I want the Silvia Blis one from Valk Chronicles but it is now like 250$ UGH

Thanks. Yes, it is super nice. Although I wish they'd pick a scale for the series and stick with it, despite there being multiple manufacturers involved. My Mercedes looks way tiny next to Velvet.

Most of these figures are far too expensive to really justify, but it all seems so worth it when you're opening a new box, smelling the fresh paint, unwrapping the plastic and positioning the few detachable parts in their places. That's happiness.

The VC figures weren't really doing it for me. I don't know, they looked kinda low quality in the pictures I saw...

You are probably thinking of the $5 ones that were sold in vending machines.


btw http://www.amiami.com has 50% off shipping this month.

I just picked up a Macross Quarter for a killer deal. They normally go for around 160/180 in japan and more on ebay. They have it for 107 + 50% shipping.

Chan from Holland shows off her room. Lots of neat stuff.

initially that video kind of bothers me. I don't really get why some people amass shelves of figures. But she only gives one room to it, so it isn't that big of a deal I guess.


This might be the overly technical side of me, but it is jarring to me to see people fill shelves with that stuff. I don't see anything wrong with owning it, but it IS decorations. It seems unnatural to amass so many decorations into one space. IMO a room feels better with diversity and white space. At the most, have ONE shelf like that per book case, and the rest be other stuff.

Personally, I might have one or two figures on a shelf full of books.
