@Blacksmith:
I got the chance to get it at the convention. Spend like 20minutes looking at it, but then decided not to.
And i dont think i'll regret it. Its really nice and got lots of details with great paint, but not a big fan of the base.
And the statue that i saw can't be properly secure to its base.
Yes, they definitely could of done better with that base, but unfortunately for me, even retail price would have been over my budget. I think of the three figures of Vagabond, I was most tempted with the Sasaki Kojiro figure. He was just so pretty to look at.
@Duomaxwe:
Had 3 more boxes waiting for me from Mandarake today, I'm happy with them:

The C.C is beautiful, I think it's probably one of my favourite figures out of all the ones I have, the Naruto is actually really cool too, and only cost 1500 yen, another Yoko who's nice, and another Sheryl Nome, even though I haven't seen her anime, I seemed to start collecting figures of her just like I did with the ToHeart2 girl.
And POP Sogeking, I just decided to get him because he was 3000 yen and I didn't have any Sogeking stuff.
Nice haul Doumaxwe! Congrats! I like your Naruto the most. He looks surprisingly better than I thought.

My current MSP setup:
[hide]https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-v12gARF5eeI/T1Zs3U2YCMI/AAAAAAAACLI/DpTENRIAsPs/s720/setup1.jpg[/hide]
by my workstation the walls are concrete so i can't hang anything. Places these shelves on my desk to keep organized and also to have some figures displayed up away from my work area ^_^;; because my work area gets messy and hectic fast when i'm sending out packages.
figures are cheap to make, so with the product margin they can really charge whatever they want. Just depends how much money they want to make/need to make to even out other costs. In a way, I feel like MSP is then giving back a little bit, selling them for so cheap. Though, I doubt they're that nice. I'd like to think of it that way, anyway, makes me happy believing in that delusion.
I remember when I first saw pics of MSP ace… I was ready to throw down $200 for him, he looked so nice to me. But, that's just price/worth, which is different to every person. However, I don't doubt MSP ace will one day reach the $200 price point. Another few years, I think.
The set up looks good Maggie. It breaks up the space nicely, and that MSP Luffy and Naruto look better and better each time I see them.
I hear you on MSP Ace. What a trip down memory lane! Remember this:

I remember seeing that pic ReDDragon posted, and I was so taken with the figure. Even though I had a few figures already, my collecting fever pretty much started with him. Ironically, he's the lowest priced of all my large figures. go figure….pun intended.
I have to agree that the MSP line does produce some gems. The Jotaro one is really nice, but like Timeskip, I don't have a connection to the series.
I am surprised that no one has posted these:

New figure on DRRR

Anri. She looks odd. I don't recall her being in that pose.
They updated Shizuo's pics with a pic of Celty in preproduction pink. I might be imagining things, but I think they may have fixed her hips. It was oddly wide before, but I can't tell from this angle.

They colored Alter's Kiss-shot from Kizumonogatari the prequel to Bakemonogatari
[hide]
I think I watched like 2 episodes of Bakemonogatari when it first came out. I never went back to it, but I guess they thought it was good enough for them to make a prequel.
