Got this guy as an early birthday present:
!
I really like him a lot. Suzaku's eyes are gorgeously painted.
!
Love the boots.
!
Ass looks great.
!
Cute armpits. I just really like his Knight of Zero outfit, it's really got a sort of costume-y fetish-y sort of look to it lmao.
!
Anyways the cape is the really gorgeous part of it.
!
I'm actually a bit unhappy that the back looks so great because I normally wouldn't really see it where I display things.
!
Great stuff overall. The cape is actually a bit too fancy looking for my desk (where I'm keeping him right now) so I've been displaying him without it, which is fine except the base is hilariously oversized.
!
Great figure overall. <3
Wow, finally. Hopefully the neck isn't broken, Raithos :)

Lol thank you! Someone posted the link for her on MFC and it was a wrap.
11.5k off rakuten, 13k total with their shipping discount thing
As for her neck:
[hide]
Her neck is fine, I can see how it can get broken if she falls from a height or something. It's a lot of weight to be centered on that small peg, due to the extent and size of her hair

I still wanna get Echidna. Unfortunately they go for such stupid amounts and for a series I aint seen properly and likely never will since it's not coming to europe anytime soon and the blu-rays are region locked.

I want Echidna myself but the special edition version which is the norm colouring with a better sculpt painting. Seems like they did what POPs are with 1.5s. Cheapest Ive seen is $65 for a pre-owned one. Just haven't felt like spending the money yet.

Well then. I guess we'll have to wait for preorders.
Aegis Ultimate edition Figma, an awesome figure. Love how you can attach all 3 heavy weapons on her and the firing effect is a nice touch. Very happy I waited to buy an Aegis Figma. This one is the coolest in my opinion.

I got my Mashiro RAH from Bakuman! I was hotly debating buying him, but now I'm so very happy that I did!
[hide]

My Bakuman Collection now:
I find the Nendoroids (except for Eiji) to be immensely annoying and impossible to deal with. The joints are loose, they wobble everywhere, their arms come out of their sockets… it's all so temperamental! The RAHs on the other hand are wonderful fun to pose and they don't move once I have them there. Plus they look fantastic!!

RAHs always look fantastic and one should never doubt getting them ;)
I got my Killer Queen from Ichiban Kuji <3 God Ichiban Kuji can bring on some jewels sometimes!
He's pretty expensive at the moment but well worth the money I payed for him! Hehe

Yeah, amazing how a $100 product is so much better than a $30 one!
And I'm so tempted with this thing…. But with the $200 price tag, my wallet keeps telling me "HELL NO"

I saw this one at 20,000 JPY on Mandarake few days ago. Isn't it a bit expensive for Kuji?
But of course that's an awesome sculpt.
And really I like this pic of you, Maggie.
Don't know how you could pose him and shoot him in that pose. So cool with that manga background. :)

RAH Link is a little bit cheaper at BIJ: 15,450 JPY hehe
http://www.biginjap.com/pvc-figures/7063-zelda-skyward-sword-rah-622-link.html
I don't really like how visible the joints are on RAHs though. I always try to look out for those with long sleeves so that the joints are hidden underneath the outfit.
Fortunately the only RAH I'm interested in (Homura) has her outfit covering all the joints, so it looks fluent
Are these RAHs worth the money? Just noticed Link is getting one. Looks amazing but dunno if I can justify the price tag

Most RAH's I've wanted I've either seen/purchased for 40-50% off after release. I have Son Goku, Super Saiyan Son Goku, Piccolo and Gohan from DBZ and then I have Jotaro & Limited Star Platinum from JoJo. Star Platinum is the only one you'll struggle to find now as he was limited.
In my opinion they are well worth spending 12kish yen on, but maybe not 18k+
It's Link I want. He's a pretty damn popular character so not sure how easy he'll be to get lol
I saw that Link too! He's not out until November so there's a while to save up but… I'd like HLJ to put him up so I can cancel later if I need to.
i want 1up to put him up so I can be sure I don't get custom'd. Customs on a £150 figure is bound to be insane.

Well, for Mashiro the retail on the RAH is 17,800Y while the nendo is 3600Y. RAHs are definitely more than a $100 product in every case I've seen, unless you get it used or secondhand. My Mashiro cost 7000Y new at Mandarake, while Eiji was 5000Y used on YAJ. I do think with RAHs you get the most bang for your buck but I don't know if I would have paid retail for the Bakuman RAHs as they're lacking in accessories and aren't that fancy. Link on the other hand has got an extra face, hands, sword, shield.
Love your collection¡¡. Specially that nendroid Eiji :D.
Did you order an Eiji yet? XD He's adorable and the one who gives the the least amount of trouble!

Hmm that's a little bit more than amiami.
My boyfriend actually was playing with him and did that pose, but whenever he takes pictures he never takes into account the light box or background, so inevitably all his pictures need major major edits. I did all the photoshop work with isolating the figure while my boyfriend put in the speed lines, and I put the Bakuman logo in. It was a group effort LOL! Glad you like it :-)
I don't really like how visible the joints are on RAHs though. I always try to look out for those with long sleeves so that the joints are hidden underneath the outfit.
Yes, I feel that the Dio RAH is a good example. With his coat he looks normal but take it off and his shoulders look too small and the joints are very distracting. I am planning to make a custom RAH and I immediately thought about whose joints are mostly covered that I would want to make. I ultimately decided that Ace would have to use a Hot Toys body because he'd look ridiculous as a RAH, even though Hot Toys have limited pose ability. Hisoka from HxH ended up being my first choice for the custom RAH even though his elbows are showing.
Fortunately the only RAH I'm interested in (Homura) has her outfit covering all the joints, so it looks fluent
Not so fast, she's got those pesky hair-joints! >_<;; She does look pretty damn good, though.
Are these RAHs worth the money? Just noticed Link is getting one. Looks amazing but dunno if I can justify the price tag
I personally love them, but they are pricey… in the long run, if there's one I really wanted coughKanedacough I would sacrifice a few mid-grade figures so I could afford the RAH.
Most RAH's I've wanted I've either seen/purchased for 40-50% off after release. I have Son Goku, Super Saiyan Son Goku, Piccolo and Gohan from DBZ and then I have Jotaro & Limited Star Platinum from JoJo. Star Platinum is the only one you'll struggle to find now as he was limited.
In my opinion they are well worth spending 12kish yen on, but maybe not 18k+
Not all RAHs fall that much after release. I thought that, surely, the Naruto ones would be popular and have overstock, but I was wrong. Now I'm combing auctions and stalking Mandarake. It's really a crapshoot, as Medicom randomly re-releases or allows backorders for a lot of their lines. The Bakuman ones sold out several times but they keep going on backorder and coming back into stock.
I suppose if Link ends up like the Figma you could be in for a fight if you don't preorder. The Figma kept going up for preorder and selling out again and again, then after release he was just gone. There's really no telling with these things, even if you're a seasoned figure collector. You can just go by the old standard: if you're going to be reallllly upset if you don't own it, order it and be damned with price changes after release.
Did you order an Eiji yet? XD He's adorable and the one who gives the the least amount of trouble!
Not yet Maggie xDDD. Gonna try to get him this next month. This march was crazy for my with so much good games relased on 360/ps3 hahaah.

Ahh~ I love your photos, Maggie <3 You make me proud of being a collector, still :P
And your Bakuman collection is great. Oddly, I find the Nendoroids to be a bit boring (except Eiji's).
Are you getting Aoki's RAH ? (they should make her a Hiramaru one~)
I have a question regarding Banpresto chibi kyun chara figs. I recently bought an IK prize one of Rider from Fate/zero and I have to say he is awesome, I was surprised by the size. My question is, are all chibi kyun figs the same scale/size or are the IK ones larger? Rider is about 4.5" with the base, is between 4-5 inches the norm?
Its just that you see ones on manda that are labeled as IK prizes, Rider was D prize but then on BIJ and HLJ there are ones that are not labeled as IK prizes just Chibi kyun chara. So I am wondering if their the same or what?
I'm pretty sure that there are two sizes, a larger and a smaller. I bought my boyfriend a larger one from gurren lagaan, and I just recently got a smaller one of itachi. I'm fairly certain I have 2 different sized aces (though I may be getting it confused with the deformasters), and I remember seeing a friends collection that had the one piece ones and they were large like the one I got for my boyfriend.
Maybe someone else can be more specific? I'm positive the one piece ones were 2 sizes when they stared, the larger ones being, say, ABC prizes, the smaller as DEF. Someone like Alina will know for sure the exact names and differences, perhaps.
Also, thanks Elisabeth Heart!! That's such a nice compliment!! ^o^
They come in 2 types - kyun-chara (bigger sized around 10 cm, usually each figure is a separate prize) and chibi-kyun-chara (smaller sized, 5-6 cm, usually a set)
http://myfigurecollection.net/search.php?type_id=24026&root=0&type_strict=1&type_p=-1
http://myfigurecollection.net/search.php?type_id=25937&root=0&type_strict=1&type_p=-1
Also pretty sure they all are Ichiban Kuji prizes?.. I guess bigger characters like Moriah or Kuma tend to be bigger than the rest, but all figures from the same line are roughly the same size.
Definite thanks for the links Alina, a great resource for seeing them all. It appears that all the ones Ive been looking at on manda are the same scale as my Rider which is this one btw. http://myfigurecollection.net/item/113290
I did just buy one of the smaller ones as well so I will be able to see both first hand.
Time to start collecting a new line….

Yes, sorry I didn't include links or anything. I check the forum from my phone a lot so it's harder to have multiple tabs and do the linking thing for me. I try to figure out if its better to post the info sooner with no links or later with a more complete answer, but I don't want people's questions to get buried so I usually go for the former.
I got the Kamina one when I was in Japan at Mandarake in Akihabara. My boyfriend loves the show and especially Kamina and I wanted to bring him back something, though I had to ditch the packaging because it wouldn't fit in my suitcase. He's really cute, but I guess they are rare a d I randomly got lucky. I almost got him Viral, too, but I didn't want to spoil him too much :-p
