Sildani Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 Interesting. Like her USN belt buckle. So, how does one play KanColle? Is it still Japan-only? Quote
anime52k8 Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 yep, still Japanese only. http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Tutorial:_How_to_Register Quote

renegadeleader1 Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 yep, still Japanese only. http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Tutorial:_How_to_Register The browser game is Japan only, but the recently released vita game(which includes Iowa in its shipgirls) is all regions. Quote
Sildani Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 Interesting. And not an h-game, despite the ungodly amount of pornography about the girls available online, correct? Quote
renegadeleader1 Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) Interesting. And not an h-game, despite the ungodly amount of pornography about the girls available online, correct? Correct. the closest Kancolle gets to naughty is clothes getting destroyed when the shipgirl takes damage. Even then there isn't any nudity. Plenty of side boob, cleavage, and booty though.

Major Focker Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 freedom? https://chan.sankakucomplex.com/post/show/5147449 thank you. let the diplomacy begin. another one of your sins. saw it for a little over $100. couldn't resist grabbing her, er, i meant taking her home, er... NEW STUFF!!! the newest member of the Seven deadly sins line, Astaroth, has arrived. that brings my collection to 6 core figures and two variants. Astaroth, the Image of Melancholy by Michael Ringot, on Flickr Quote
Major Focker Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 saw it this morning and still don't know why i pre-ordered. maybe because it's only my second Saber figure. or maybe because the eyes hypnotized me. lol! one of these days i'll have to watch the damn anime. maybe it'll help me rationalize.

JB0 Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 That's a really interesting variant of Saber Alter. All the angular faceting on the heavy armor gives her an almost mechanical look. But the flowing hair, bits of exposed leg, and large portions of unarmored torso make her "organic" origins unignorable. The clash is... actually really well-suited to that variant of the character. The open back irritates, me, though. She's so heavily-armored on the front and sides, then the back is just "whoops upskirt lol", with no grace or contrast. It undermines the overall impression the rest of the figure presents. Quote
Major Focker Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 actually, only the sides are heavily armored. unless that bustier is made of adamantium Quote

It undermines the overall impression the rest of the figure presents. It's an invitation or a suggestion for penetration; a forbidden vulnerability that begs to be violated, or something. Exciting, really... Quote
treatment Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 she's, uhmm, big... http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-017370 1/4 @390mm and she's supposed to be a kaiju... Quote
myk Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 I draw the line at 1/5. Any bigger and it's better just to call an escort service... Quote
treatment Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Don't Mike have a 1/2 or 1/3 in his collection? Quote
anime52k8 Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 my dolls are 1/3, I don't have a statue over 1/5 (yet). Quote
renegadeleader1 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) So I'm looking at this figure of Mustu from Kancolle over at Jlist and I have some questions. What exactly is a figFix figure and how big are they? https://jlist.com/pre6473 Some of the Kancolle figures are out of my price range, but this seems decent. Is it worth getting?

FigFix are fixed pose figma statues. they're the same size as figmas, (1/12 scale, under 6 inches tall) they use figma stands, and they have compatible parts with regular figmas. IIRC, the damaged guns and distressed face can be taken off and put on the regular figma Mutsu. In general FigFix is more of a supplement to regular figmas than a line worth collecting on their own. For Mutsu though, you really don't have much of a choice since you're options are the FigFix, the regular Figma, and the Penguin Parade 1/8 figure which is expensive and has the worst face ever. (for real, what is going on here? http://s1.tsuki-board.net/image/MightyAlpha1438949670.jpeg ) Personally, I went with the regular figma. I'd say get it if you like Mutsu though.

anime52k8 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 I've been waiting on the Ques-Q version. it's not amazing (it's actually the exact same pose as the Penguin one) but I've got other Ques-Q KanColle girls that are really nice and at least her face is looking better: http://myfigurecollection.net/item/170526 I'm really hoping this version sees the light of day eventually: http://myfigurecollection.net/item/194851 It's Amakuni so it's gonna be a limited exlusive and super expensive, but just look how pretty she is!

treatment Posted March 11, 2016 Posted March 11, 2016 Not quite sure about this rather recent disproportional-styling nowadays, but this one's kinda nice. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-015976 1/8 at 230mm Must be the hair. Them hips, tho... Quote

anime52k8 Posted March 13, 2016 Posted March 13, 2016 So, Chitose Shirasawa smart doll goes on sale to the public in 1 hour, returning customers can get a 1 hour advantage so basically right now, I really want her but I don't want to pay for her... oh the conflict. http://www.dannychoo.com/en/post/27344/Chitose+Shirasawa+Smart+Doll.html Quote

anime52k8 Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 (edited) what do you all think of this? http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-016844 I mean, it's not the most impressive figure; normally I'd say it was pretty boring and not worth the space, but there's just something about it that's got my interest and it is relatively inexpensive for a 1/7th.

Honestly, it's boring. Then again, I personally think all kotobukiya figures are boring and way overpriced. I'm wishing waiting for GSC to make the inevitable figma versions. Fortified suits FTW!!! Them girlz are just mucho sexay wearing their suits... Quote
