Welcome to a great thread indeed. Many sock babies have been made in honor of the fine sights in this thread...

That would look good in front of my Toy Biz 12 inch Blade figure...

I like it :)

Gotta admit, I love the aesthetic on the Walkure Romanze stuff.

Those swimwear outfits make no friggin' sense(even less than "normal" bikini armor!), but I really like how they look.

REJOICE!

"Cast-off at your own risk?" That's ominous.

Well if you notice on amiami's site that there are blinding flashes of light underneath the clothes. They're trying to warn you that you might get blinded by the brilliant private parts...

Can someone explain to me what the difference between this figure and the ones from Daiki Kogyo are. They seem to be similar in scale and price and style (cast-off swimsuit versions). I have the first two releases from Daiki Kogyo and would rather have a consistent line from one company/sculptor.

On the other hand I would rather have a complete line-up than an incomplete one so I'm eying this figure. ^_^

Blonde, tanned, busty, and with yummy tan lines is a win. That girl is cast-off enabled, right?

Then that's gonna give my tanned Diskvision Elsa figure a run for her money...

BTW, what has your guys experience been with buying used goods from AmiAmi? I'm kind of super addicted to the Seven deadly sins girls, and AmiAmi has Lucifer and Asmodeus in there original colors plus bunny girl Asmo all listed for under $100 each. Lucifer and Bunny Asmodeus are listed as B/B, while original asmodeus is C/B.

:edit:

they also have a reasonably priced leviathan and a really cheap Belphegor, but I'm not sure if I even want either of them.

I love levi's design, but she's the most expensive, and her figure doesn't look as good as some of the others, especially compared to the bikini version Orchid seed is putting out soon (that I already have ordered). That said, the orchid seed version is going to be a bigger scale and and won't come with the pedestal base, so she's not going to match as well with the other girls.

as for Belphegor, I like her the least of any figure in the line by a considerable margin, to the point where I wouldn't consider buying her on her own; but I own or plan to own the other 6 so I feel like I need her to complete the set.

I'm mostly on the fence about the original Asmodeus, it's really cheap at 9,750 Yen, but C grade makes me worried. the next cheapest would be from Manda at 17,000 unopened.

For reals, is it worth the risk because I really want her?

:edit:

in case you're confused about what I'm talking about:

My experience with their B/B figures are ok. Even their B/C figures are fine, since I don't really care about the box conditions.

However, I think they've recently raised their pricings on most used goods with B/B and up conditions. Also, no more SAL if your figure is 8000y and up. Which totally sucks.

Why does everyone hate Belphegor?

because she's the least pretty looking of the 7. seriously, unchou Kanu is the only girl who can rock the loose socks look.

yeah, I'm not too worried about the B/B figures. it's that C grade that kind of scares me.

Posted (edited)

I've never ordered C-grade items from ami.

Looks like Ami's scalping on that Asmodeus with C/B conditions.

You're prolly better off checking Mandy for her instead.

I read somewhere that Mandy's C-grades seems more like a B+ in reality. Not sure if it's true since I've never ordered from Mandy.

Not yet, anyway...

all the Asmodeus that are up on Manda right now are A/B grades at 17,000yen right now. I'm not sure which I should get.

Thought that might have been a little obscure. I linked to a figure of Kirino, since "Belgephor" was Kuroneko's nickname for her. A little Oreimo joke.

oh, in that case it's because she's kind of a bitch and because she wants to have sex with her older brother.

See, what bothers me about this is that they've got 3 B grade at two different prices. The one that's cheaper is described as having the same issues as the AmiAmi C grade; and the more expensive ones have no description. I think I should either take my chances with AmiAmi or go for a new in box from Manda at significantly more.

Posted

How badly do you want this figure? If she means that much to you, then take no chance and buy new. If she's just another notch on your shelf then just go with the used stuff. Amiami's a good place and wouldn't intentionally sell you junk...

Posted

Yeah. I kinda agree with myk. You might want to opt and get scalped for new/sealed if you really really really want the figure badly.

As such, it seems like a defective figure to begin with when it has the same issues from two different shops.

Prolly best to just stay away altogether.
