Models and Figures

[Police Girl]

I've got Nendo Sonic arriving tomorrow. Which will finish off my April Purchases.

Zero's coming this month too! Thankfully once June Passes my Wallet will be safe from further damage till September.

EDIT: Oh, and another thing. This has been put back up for sale, guess it's pretty popular seeing how rare it is for Japanese figures to get re-issues.




Posted on: May 09, 2012, 11:48:22 PMZero is on his way out.

Anybody else pick him up?

Posted on: May 25, 2012, 01:36:54 PMAnother month, another lack of replies.

Heard the new Zero figure is pretty shitty. Shame Bandai can't seem to get it right, then again, Kotobukiya couldn't give his MMZ portrayal justice, so maybe its just that Zero can't seem to lend his design to a good figure. I'm still hoping deep down that its just a run of bad QC and mine won't be terrible.

[Quickman]

No replies because I haven't bought any figures.  But, just wait until I go to CVI... I intend to buy a figure.

[Police Girl]

Can't wait to see what you get.

Anyway, somebody got painted.

Oh god, a whole month and nothing?

Samus came out today, just in case anybody cared. Mine's getting shipped with Canti but he doesn't ship till the end of the month so I've got some waiting.

Anyway, I finally got around to photographing my collection, apologies for [parasitic bomb] quality and being inconsistent with the flash. Since those bastards at MFC wouldn't let me put some of my pictures on I'm just resorting to using [tornado fang]ing photobucket.

Split into categories based on what room they are in.

[spoiler=Bedroom]

Top shelf, Tamashii Spec Evangelions, not much to say here. But that lip is a pain in the ass since feet cannot be seen.

Second Shelf, Code Geass shelf, R1 only since I wanted some more room for them.

Third Shelf, Robot Damashii Evas, Beast can't be moved since I lost part of the head joint. Otherwise I like what I did here, the Eva figma's used to be here until I moved them.

Bottom Shelf, Panty and Stocking stuff. Obviously its rather empty. More will be there later.

Nightstand is where Nendo Sonic is, he used to be on the P&S Shelf but he moved here since he doesn't fit in anywhere else. Pardon the mess.

The R2 Rejects. Guren flops around too much to be any good for posing, same with Vincent. Burai has a broken arm so unless I force it in place with glue that one isn't doing much.
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Storage Closet]

Main Shelf, visible are Mari, Asuka and Rei enjoying the summer heat. Kagami and Miyuki doing.... something while Hisao is frozen in place, Lelouch being [tornado fang]ing Lelouch, and the X1 Armors for both X and Zero displayed without faces. Also of note is Kallen being neglected.

The new home of Rockman, Roll, and Blues. Minor Paint Application has been made on all three, though the only noticeable one is the Yellow on Blues' gun.

Where I put MMZ Zero since I couldn't find anywhere else for him.

The rest of my R2 Units, The Shinkiro (in Plane Mode), Lancelot Albion (In "[chameleon sting]ing Democracy" pose), and Guren SEITEN just floating there, the Zero from the Burai is present under the Shinkiro.

Kallen's Glasgow. Its just there.

Arbalest. Also of note is the large tower of boxes.

RX-78-2, posed as it was in the episode "Escape", the large tower of boxes kind of ruins the shot, so I'm going to move it to a better spot when I see fit.

X and Zero in my best attempt at the X4 coverart. I really [tornado fang]ing hate Zero for being highly uncooperative in posing.

Ruri/Kuroneko with no Friends, likewise with Rin. I would get a Shiro for Rin but he's too pricy.[/spoiler]

I know there's lots of dust visible. I need to dust soon.

[The Great Gonzo]

Good to know Samus's out, though it'll be a while before I can get her.

Also, those "painted" images lead to a "Referral Denied".

Yeah, I need to fix them. Its supposed to be figma Link, by the way.

I'm going to edit those now.

Not sure if the Ride Armor isn't just some repainted thing.
And of course obligatory Black Zero. Doesn't appear to be any Volnutt even though he won the Bluefin poll.

Unfortunately Sigma is apparently for the Display only and isn't an actual figure.

[Acid]

Aw shame

Cause that Sigma totally rocks.

[Police Girl]

Aw shame

Yeah, its quite nice.
Its a statue, but its nice.

The Ride Armor apparently might actually be for sale later on though. So there's something to get excited about.

[Gaia]

A sigma statue wouldn't be that bad to have.. Considering the crap sigma gets when it comes to merchandising. All he gets is a cardboard cutout and a minifigure or two for christ's sake!

[Quickman]

Steal that Sigma statue.  Display-only my butt.

Sigma seems like he'd be rife for merchandising potential; he's a villain!  You can't play a decent adventure without a villain!  Dammit, people, we want our Sigma!

[Flame]

I would totally accept a statue only Sigma from Bandai. Oh man would it be awesome.

[Quickman]

Not the greatest of images (I need to set up a better lighting rig and invest in a tripod), but whatever.



I need to get more Chaos Emeralds.

[Gaia]

Let me guess?

[Flame]

You need that DAMN fourth chaos emerald.

[Police Girl]

And some shards.

Anywho, Wonderfest time, I'll just post what stood out to me.

Apparently we'll be getting Dark Pit as well. (It'll be a recolor but what do you expect?)


Demon sluts ahoy


Hot off the heels of his expensive green counterpart, this one will apparently be cheaper because it'll come with less [parasitic bomb].


And we'll also apparently be getting figmas of the entire Avenger group.


Tit monster #931983 gets a figma.


As if nobody saw it coming.

[Gaia]

"Titty Monster" Sonico is getting a figma, like I've heard of "her" before only through an LP of some of japan's wierder [parasitic bomb].

As for the last one, tell that who's not a uber-massive anime fan. :/

[Quickman]

It's been a real bugger to get a hold of.  Hopefully later this week proves to be a worthwhile search...

...and I don't hit any red spheres while nabbing the blue ones.  Damn things are everywhere.

What? Nyaruko is massive Okatu-pandering.

[Archer]

[tornado fang] Nyaruko, that show was pure [parasitic bomb].

Only upcoming figma I care about:



You could probably debate Total Eclipse is [parasitic bomb] too and you wouldn't be wrong, but I don't watch it because it's good.

Pfffft.

[Police Girl]

[tornado fang] Nyaruko, that show was pure [parasitic bomb].

Well, I never watched it. I just know its Pandering. I'm willing to watch it to gather my own opinion on it, but that's about it.

Also, correct me if i'm wrong. But isn't Sonico essentially just an advertising model with as much personality as a paper bag? Like that piece of [parasitic bomb] Mirai?

[Archer]

You would be correct.

[Police Girl]

Ah, gotta love that.

Good Smile Company, cancelling/delaying interesting characters in favor of "Generic Schoolgirl who doesn't really need poseable figure", "Flavor of the Season", and the endless torrent of Miku and Saber variations.

I'd still like Archer, GSC. I'd like figmas based off of Tales series characters. hell, maybe we could get some more characters who have been neglected in terms of figures, like Misato.

[Gaia]

Pfffft.

Can I tell you I own a dvd of Magical Kanaan? Also, who's Mirai again? There's litterally thousands with such a name, but like america, japan loves genericness I suppose. :/

Danny Choo's Mascot.

The guy has some connections, that's really the only reason she was made.

[Archer]

Do you really think that constitutes as 'japan's wierder [parasitic bomb]'?

[Gaia]

You've seen this? I didin't even KNOW it was gonna be weird.. Then I felt horny. Goddamnit japan!

"Japan's weirder [parasitic bomb]" could be just about personal opinion though, but who gives a rat's ass on the interwebs anyway? I'd like to know what constitutes as your "japan's weirder [parasitic bomb]"? I've could've SWORN I've seen worse, especially in the R34 department.
