One Piece Collectibles v.2

Buuhan1

The last thread was huge, so here's version 2.

HobbyLink Japan has most of your ordering needs: www.HLJ.com

Here's new pictures of the upcoming Carue POP, set to be released in March 2009:

Here's going to be around $50, which is ridiculous. The quality and size is worth it, but I don't consider the character to be. The better looking ones are the NEOs.

People asked for Original POPs beside NEO POPs, pictures. Well, here's tons from someone's collection. Credit goes to gerbilbob.

CCC

wow… 5040 yen. But it is a lot of material, and it seems to be pretty high-quality (unless that's just the floor show model). I'd still rather sink $50 into Brooke or Lucci though.

...woo post on first page.

KaizokuFan22

not worth it.
..my vivi P.O.P can be without Carue(or Caroo as I seen in a few spellings)

Im not getting both franky and ussop due to money problems..so am getting Franky in Feb and ussop later on.

NOTE: i will be selling Battle stadium D.O.N GCN ver. with GCN freeloader(with cracked case) because off the locks on the wii and i dont play the gcn console due to all my games can play on the wii.
I may not get a buyer, but still plan to sell it to someone who wants it.
Game has everything with it including slip jacket,plastic box,and Nintendo Club pamphlets.
Game is in good condition,been played a few times.
I also plan to sell a few of my DBZ cards too(no Crossover) and Ani-mayhem cards(DBZ mostly with Bubblegum crisis,El Hazard and Ramen 1/2 mixed in the batch)

Buuhan1

How much are you selling D.O.N. and the freeloader for?

KagePakkun

OOOH D.O.N. Sell me it.
And by the way, I find anything over $20 to be ridiculous, and I thought it was spelled Karoo?

Sanjii

it is a very high quality figure, and a pretty unique character, i think by the time it comes out i'll be able to muster 50 dollars

Buuhan1

@KagePakkun!:

It wasn't romanized. Carue, Karoo, Karue, Caroo, it's all good.

xinyingho

Man, you bet I'll get that Karoo. Vivi must have her Super Colvert. He's quite expensive for a minor character (the same price as for Brooke) but he's made of top-notch material.
And like they say: you gotta get'em all !

Buuhan1

It'll be interesting to see how it sells, that's for sure. Also, that isn't a bunny, that's a Pikachu.

Yeah it would be. Luckily it's coming out on my birthday month so I know I'll have the cash for it.

I just got my Jewelry girls set from HLJ and I have to say that the quality of these figures really exceeded my expectations, I wish they would already bring out volume 2.
The conis figure is the first one I opened and it made me want to go back and re-read my whole skypeia arc, If you are a fan of any of these female characters I highly suggest you pick this series up.

now if i could just get a boa hancock…

magicoreo

Closer look at the Unlimited cruise figure.

They are 4inch right? Sorry, ain't paying the price they are selling for that.

I just got my package from her, in it was a lovely note with a cute little drawing of Caimie and Marguerite, along with her hawt Caimie drawing and a nice Frobin one. But this is the collectibles thread, so:

From the DBZxOP crossover gashapon series I got Roronoa Vegeta, Captain Goku and Going Merry w/ Bulma. I love all three, even Vegeta. My favorite is definitely GM w/ Bulma of course. For little guys, they definitely are able to put great quality into them. That brings my gashapon collection to 12, and my OP collection (excluding cards) to 27 items.

I'm not gonna bother with pictures right now, but I guess expect my usual blurry ones soon.

…..that Zoro looks as terrible as the first one :ninja:. He looks good on the box, but that close up....yikes :blink:.

I don't know if I'll bother to get any of the sets now..depends on how good the other figures are, I guess.

Southe

Play-asia shipped out my Luffy dressed as goku out today.

Hmm when is Carue set to come out? Because i do want to get him for when i eventually get vivi..

Also the mild series. i know they cant exactly make a chopper one.. could have him hatless with the bandages or something. but what about brooke.. cause my plan is just to get the strawhats for the mean time. adult and mild but i dont see one of brooke being made :(

Link-san

My DBxOP Luffy arrived today. He does looks better in person than the pictures on Play-asia.

Grrblt

Luffy's hands on that pic are much farther apart than they are on http://www.hlj.com/product/MEG71116

I know lol,
I wonder who cancelled their DBxOP figures after seeing the Play-Asia pictures.

Buuhan1

@Grrblt:

Yeah, and? That's how he's made, you have to push them together to get him to hold his fist like he's suppose to, but even then they never stay touching. You'd have to glue him or something for that to happen.

@Buuhan1:

im figuring it out right now, since i am checking prices since they run from 10.99(Ebay) to 89.99(amazon US (LOL)) fior the game itself.
and I am getting a paypal account set up probably thursday to get things started.

I may sell it between 10-20 dollars… Ill have a final price on Thurs night/friday morning

fps_anth

Play-Asia shipped my Luffy and Goku today! YES!

/falconvoice

J-Sack

I got my Goku and Luffy today. They rock.

ForteAnly

So does the luffy figure look as bad as in this picture.

Buuhan1

At least two people in the thread has said "no". But generally things would look better in real life cause it's in duller lighting and is not at a fixed angle.

gerbilbob

Posted the pictures in the first collectibles thread.

@Degalon:

If anyone else got the little figurines, did anyone manage to get a fully painted thousand sunny? They skipped on on the lions head snout and the soldier dock system on mine.

Just checked out my Shenlong/Sunny figurine. One side of the ship has a little white spot where it should be painted and the opposite side has a few overlaps of paint. Other than those two small nitpicks, the rest are fully painted.

Strongbad456

Yay, my Chopperman figure arrived today but I can't have it until Christmas :sad:. I can't wait until the Brook P.O.P. comes out. I love Brook.

Buuhan1

Dammit, Alina. >< You got me wanting those again now, but but… so expensive. ;_____;

How tall are they? 4 inches?

SilverWind

Well, I'm facing a dilemma. Not really a dilemma, but I'm not sure what to do.

I've placed an order for both the Zoro and the Brook POPs, and Zoro's ready to ship out. I don't have the money for Zoro, and hlj is going to cancel my order in two or so days. I could either ask for an early birthday present in the form of Zoro, but I'm not sure I'm going to have enough money for Brook. If it came down to favoritism, Brook is my favorite character, but Zoro is kinda getting rare. Nobody knows if he is going to get another restock in the future.

Any suggestions?

Buuhan1

All the POPs have gotten restocks, so chances are Brook will too… so in that department I say get Zoro... but on the offbeat chance Brook may NOT get a Restock... Really man, it's your choice. I face this problem a lot myself, you ultimately just have to choose.

AlnaJames

They are 12 cm, Buu. Around 4`8`` (inches are evil, though) 14 cm with stand.

Buuhan1

Hmm.. 14 cm…. I guess that wouldn't be too bad. But still, they're so expensive. >< I hope they're sold cheaper on eBay. Tho with shipping... there wont be any difference.

I just wish I had the option to choose which ones I want. I only want blue Nami, blue ponytail Vivi, yellow Nojiko and Conis. Really, I don't even have to have Nojiko. Maybe someday when I got some money...

Btw, Alina. You seem to have missed me adding you to my new msn address.

RuNa

@Strongbad456:

Yay, my Chopperman figure arrived today but I can't have it until Christmas :sad:.

Are you really 21?

Buuhan1

It says he's unemployed right in his profile. So he's probably getting it as a present from his parents and they're keeping it till Christmas. You are never to old to have your parents do that.

AnonymousStrawberri

OH EM JEE!
PLEASE someone help me. I've been trying to find the Crossover figures and they are sold out. TELL ME WHAT I CAN DO TO GET THEM!! waaaaaaaaaaaaaah

if you help..I'll send Japanese watermelon and yaoi :D

Buuhan1

eBay.

Here's pictures from the lovely package Alina sent me:

DBZxOP crossover gashapons:
[hide][/hide]

Drawings! Alina sent me one of my favorite pictures not just by her, but of OP in a whole. Sadly, I had to censor it due to the PG-13 rule, and I hope that don't upset Alina. >< But I tried to at least make it better by making it funny.
[hide]I scanned the image in at 300 DPI, at around 2000x3000 pixels, and cleaned it. This is a downscaled (and as mentioned) censored version.

The phone number down there is fake, 555 is a famous fake used in fictional phone numbers and the last 4 digits are CIME on the telephone, try and get the joke with that. XD

Frobin image from Alina, too~
[/hide]

I wanna frame the Caimie, I'm getting to the point of "I don't care if my Mom sees dah bewbies! I'm 18 now!" but… I'm such a chicken. >
And finally, she wrote me a sweet note, but that's for me, so here's the drawings on it.
[hide]
I JUST realized the snake is looking up Marguerite's skirt. Oh, Alina you. XDDDD[/hide]

Collection to date, along with probably the best pic I took of my POPs with this shitty camera:

RuNa

^
Haha, your collection is better than I thought it was (didn't figure that you'd have so many POPS)

I love those pics Alina drew for you.

ReDDragon

Lol there is a new thread (<- spending two days in the old thread with no replies XD )

Great collection. I like your dragonball stuff also to bad about the picture quality. Did you hear anything from your Smoker? I paid now for my open payment request.
I hope i get my Smoker payment request soon. :sad:

Still have a question about playasia. Now i know you have to pay when all your
items are in stock and ready to ship. Also when you order preoders items and in stock
items in one order. But is this also when you pay with paypal or only with credit card?

RuNa

@Buuhan1:

Doesn't work that way with my parents or anyone I know.

They'll get me presents if they want to and it's usually something that I didn't expect (got me a GPS system last year).

@ReDDragon:

If you use paypal, you have to pay even BEFORE your items ship.

ReDDragon

I know you have to pay before the ship. But its about preoders is it the same
as HLJ where you have to pay when the preoders are in stock?

And when you have made a order with stock items and preoder items. Do you have
to pay when the preorder items are in stock or before that?

RuNa

^
It allocates the money if that's what you are asking.

So, for example, you only have a 200 dollar balance but the thing you are preordering is more than that, even if it comes out in 3 months, then you wouldn't be able to make the transaction.

It's nothing to worry about if your balance is large or your card limit is large.

ReDDragon

Sorry maybe i dont ask it right. But i dont have a credit card. Its only about paypal.
I know it works for both methods on HLJ. But i like to know if this also works for Playasia.

Link-san said this in the other thread.

They charge you when they are ready to ship the pre-order. If you order multiple items they will wait until everything is instock before charging you and shipping your items.

But its this only for credit card or also paypal? Playasia dont send you a paypal payment request like HLJ or do they?

RuNa

^
No, you go right to the paypal page and pay right then and there.

If the item is to be sent at a later date, the money won't be taken out of your account, but when they are ready they will automatically do it without your involvement.

@RuNa: Alina didn't draw those pics for me, she simply gifted them to me. I remember she did the Caimie because Local-Chan and I were wondering who'd rule34 her first. Answer: Alina Jones.

@ReDDragon: That's only what's LEFT of my Dragonball collection. Through it's successful run (back in the day when my Mom had a well paying job) in the states I bought TONS of Dragonball merchandise, particularity the Irwin line of 7 inch Action figures. I counted them back in the day and I had a good 30 of them… but somehow in the course of a move I lost all but maybe 6 of them. But I had tons of other things too, I can't remember all of it I had... man... One of the last things I remember getting was a pillow with SS Goku on the front and... I think... Trunks on the back, it was at Big Lots. I foolishly left it out on the patio for several days and it rained... needless to say it mildewed and was thrown away. Surprisingly... I am finding the same pillow on eBay.

I also had more of the if Labs/Giant Ape 10 inch detailed hand painted action figures (they are the huge things in my picture below all the DVDs and videos), like Android 13 (pre-monster), SS3 Goku, Vegito, SS4 Gogeta, Cooler, Lord Slug and Meta Cooler... but... Back as a kid I had what I called my "tear up phase" and I'd often damage, if not completely destroy toys... they were some of them. I feel so ashamed to think back to all the cool shit I destroyed, especially now that I am a collector.

As for my Smoker, no, no word. I just sent my payment in for what I had ordered before it today.

Koginetsunemaru

i have a question people!

i preorder on hlj some figure and in my account it says future release but when i click on it it says discontinued!!!!!
and i don't receive any request payment…..so am i gonna receive it soon or is it really discontinued (i preordered it from a month now!)
