so I've been purchasing most of my figurines from Hobby Search but there're some rare/nearly sold out stuff from Hobby Link Japan and noticed their shit is really expensive. Does anyone here shop there? are their shipping charges really expensive?

>>	Anonymous Tue Jul 13 04:54:46 2010 No.5642809 HLJ's shipping tends to be very expensive, but they're a reliable company. I'd say search around a little more before you buy from them though.

pre-ordered this for September and holy fuck she's 1/4 = 41 cm tall, she'll be towering above all the rest of my 1/6 figurines which are 30 cms in height so I'm honestly gonna feel bad and awkward to have one chick being bigger than the rest

another awkward habit I have in terms of figurine buying is that I really don't like to buy more than one of the same character. Take Fate for example: I bought the very first alter fate figurine and honestly thought that'd be my first and last one I'll ever get, Now this new one comes out with that glossy sex finish with a more uprising pose along with that ass... so it's sad but unfortunate I'll be missing out on that one not to mention the StrikerS one as well

>>	Anonymous Tue Jul 13 05:12:46 2010 No.5642899 I regret not buying a shelf of glass before investing into figurines. My room is really greasy you see, so the figurines become smarmy REAL fast. Haven't seen them in 6 months honest.

anything Hobby Search is sold out of, AmiAmi is also sold out of as well, meh I guess I can skip out on another figurine it's not an emergency to get, it's just that figurines aern't frequently made nor do they last very long if the character is uber popular or well made

>Kanu

So fucking overrated.

I didn't so much as bat an eye when I heard that she died in the manga.

She's okay, I guess, but I'd take roughly half of the female cast over her any day. Including a certain minor characters that neither the writers nor the fanbase seem to care about at all. ;_;

>>5643752

Not just about the base, depends on the material used for the legs too.

Example - my Max Factory Ignis stands on both legs but they're a bit too soft and she bends (she's also a bit top/front heavy). I have to prop her on books every so often to straighten her back out.

However, Max Factory's Fauna has a single foot support (see pic) and she's never showed signs of bending (I've had her over two years now). I'd assume her leg is made of stiffer plastic than Ignis'.
