anime52k8 Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 ohhh.... http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-000625 http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-000628 Meh, I don't like 1/10th scale and I don't care for Griffon as a company. Quote
Gunbuster Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 hey guys, got a quick question to those who have ordered from AmiAmi, if you live in the States, can you order figures from amiami with the note "For sale in Japan only." I was thinking of ordering The False Songstress - Sheryl Nome, but there was that disclaimer at the end of the descriptor on the right side. http://slist.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?scode=FIG-MOE-9257 thanks in advance!

Major Focker Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 a recent order of mine that was also labeled "For sale in Japan only" was processed anyway, so i figure it's ok. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?scode=FIG-MOE-6039 Quote
Gunbuster Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 thanks Major for the quick response! I'm going to try and order her after this Friday ;-) Quote

I think it just means it's a product of Japan only and isn't meant for sale through foreign retailers. Japanese retailers can sell to customers outside of Japan if they want to though. The listing for the Marie Mamiya I've got on order says the same thing but I'm not worried about it. Quote
Major Focker Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 damn! glad i sold my cross-eyed v1 psylocke Quote
xrentonx Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Always loved Psylocke and that is a nice statue! Quote
anime52k8 Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 I just happened to pre-order that from BBTS last night. Quote
myk Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Lol the first one was cross-eyed? Guess I'll be picking this one up, then... Quote
Major Focker Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 well, not really. but from several angles it does look cross-eyed, or at least what i think they call lazy-eye. judge for yourself: i think they were going for a coy, come-hither look but then went off tangent somewhere. in this pic it actually looks pretty decent so i even thought of re-buying one, thinking that i may have gotten a fluke paint job. but when i checked several local stores in person, they all looked like the one i sold. for similar reasons i also sold off catwoman because the eyes looked so different from the prototype. in that case, from smoky to beady-eyed, lol! i also read that this new psylocke is now 1/7 (my perfect scale for figs) compared to the 1/8 v1. i don't know how many and which other figs in this line have also come out in 1/7, but supposedly koto has decided that this line will now be 1/7 for 2013 releases and onwards. i think it's a good move because it's really tough to get the eyes right in 1/8 unless portrayed in the typical big-eyed anime style. rumor has it that some of the earlier figs might get re-released in 1/7 either as a straight upsize, but i think/hope more likely as new sculpts such as with this psylocke fig. keeping my fingers crossed they revisit catwoman.

xrentonx Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Yeah, gonna say the new one blows the old one outta the water! Quote

Can we Get a bigger Wonder Woman? I love the one I have, I just want it exactly the same but significantly bigger. I still think this is the best Kotobukiya sculpt I've ever seen. Wonder Woman by Mike - drowning in plastic, on Flickr Quote
Major Focker Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 yeah, that wonder woman was perfect. and stupid me, it was the one i was too slow to buy. i'd love a 1/7 re-release. heck i wouldn't mind a 1/6 even. Quote

I'd prefer 1/6 to 1/7. It would match the rest of my collection more. Something crazy like 1/5 or 1/4 would be pretty cool too. Quote
Kicker773 Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 geesh I thought they finished the bishoujo line.. just got that x girl.... Quote
JetJockey Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 (edited) damn! glad i sold my cross-eyed v1 psylocke I'm waiting to see if Kotobukiya decides to show an Uncanny X-Force 2nd suit variant at Comic Con before deciding on this Psylocke. But she's an easy purchase. Can we Get a bigger Wonder Woman? I love the one I have, I just want it exactly the same but significantly bigger. I still think this is the best Kotobukiya sculpt I've ever seen. Wonder Woman by Mike - drowning in plastic, on Flickr I think the Batgirl and Huntress figures are better than this Wonder Woman sculpt. I think the overly anime face put me off this Wonder Woman. The masks on Batgirl and Huntress probably help a lot. But they are beautiful companion pieces. I can't wait to see the finished version of Black Canary soon. Edited July 1, 2013 by JetJockey Quote

The masks on Batgirl and Huntress probably help a lot. But they are beautiful companion pieces. I can't wait to see the finished version of Black Canary soon. I still prefer Wonder Woman, but a lot of it comes down to me liking her costume design more. The only things I don't care for on Batgirl is the mask and cape. Huntress is better in those regards but her boots bother me and she has that thing going on where from certain angles it looks like she's hyper-extending her arm really badly. I think my second favorite after Wonder Woman would be Poison Ivy. Quote
anime52k8 Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Oh, by the way, I know some of y'all here are Bible Black fans, so I thought you might be interested in this. frankly, I'm not shure if I like it or think it's fraked up. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-000783&page=top%2Fsearch%2Flist%3Fs_maker%3DDRAGON+Toy%24pagemax%3D30%24getcnt%3D0%24pagecnt%3D1 Quote
myk Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Nothing fraked up about a girl engaging in self-indulgence. By the sound of your post I was expecting to see her tied to a wall or something... Quote
anime52k8 Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 I'll be honest, the only reason I haven't ordered one is because I've got more stuff than I can afford pre-ordered this October already. Quote

Major Focker Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) nice Vifam. i think i'll pick that up too. i saw in one of the anime figure blogs a tank with a few SD style school girls having tea/picnic on it. i want to buy that set but can't find it. not sure if it's a GK. i'll try to find a pic. edit: found it http://www.nekomagic.com/?p=40540 anyone know where to buy? or perhaps what search term to use on yahoo auctions?

"Girls und Panzer." Use "ガールズ&パンツァー" or "ガルパン." Those garage kits are one-off, so it is not easy to find out in the auction, I guess. "Treasure-Festa 2013 in Ariake 9," hm. I went to the venue and shot movie. I hope this one is useful for you. (Edit) The dealer says he/ she will sell these ones again at Wonder Festival 2013 Summer. It is held on July 28th. http://www.fg-site.net/archives/2852969 Edited July 12, 2013 by antibiotictab Quote
Major Focker Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) thanks for the info! i wish there was some way to pre-order or directly order from him. Edited July 12, 2013 by Major Focker Quote
Bariaburu Faita Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) 1/18 scale Iczer-1 and 2 figures by Gigabrain. Wonderfest 2013 summer exclusive. limited to 500 of Iczer-1 and 300 of Iczer-2. Ask you-know-who if you want one. Edited July 18, 2013 by Bariaburu Faita Quote
JetJockey Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 Dragon's Crown! They are not just making one Sorceress but another company is making a version just like the artwork. I can't see myself getting two Sorceress figures. But you never know. This first one is hot without going too far. Also, most of the other girl characters will get figures. Quote
Shaorin Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 i'm thinking this is gonna end up being my very first Miku Hatsune... Quote
