[H-Gurl]

I wish I could splurge, but funds are really limited atm @_@;;

Nice haul btw! :3

[Siye]

Dude.. you think I could trouble ya for some close ups of Kasumi?
I'd like to see the details of the paint job.

Thanks

[Slaigar]

Nice haul that you have there. All of those figures are pretty good finds.

Sadly, I have no local stores that carry anything interesting. If I order anything through them, I have to wait a few extra months plus pay more. And I have no cash for the time being, haha.

[ai-chan]

Nice haul bud!

[Nekoarc]

This is my latest haul.






Alter Rei

Although these were all internet buys since there aren't really any stores around here that carry figures very often.

Christmas in April? .... wow! great stuff guys.

Nekoarc, I especially like the Fine Scenery Shiori, Alter Nadie, Wafudoh Rei (that's the smaller one in the center ? )

[MakubeX]

Excellent hauls, there's items in both which I wish I could get if only I had more funds

Nekoarc, can we get some pics of the Morrigan and Lillith statues?

[Nekoarc]

Yes that's the smaller one. The thing that really drew me to that figure is the face. She looks so innocent and cute.




I will go take some pics of Lillith and Morrigan ^_^

[DSJFX18]

Seeing that just made me wish for money. Though for me, a lot of the figures there, I would only get if I had money to throw around and for the sake of collection.

[H-Gurl]

That Rei is so awesome! I love the illustration of her that it's based on.

I did that for a while and it ended up with me having so many figures that I only sorta liked where now I only buy ones I really, really love. Plus when I buy new ones I try to find one or two old ones that I might not like as much anymore to sell this way I can hopefully not run out of space as much and make some money back.


I do love that Rei illustration. She is my fav character from Evangelion. Whenever I buy Eva sega prize figures I always buy the Asuka one too but I really couldn't stand her in the show. God was she irritating lol.

Here are pics of Morrigan and Lillith. I was very happy to find out that their little bat wings are made of metal rather than resin. I was worried about how fragile they would be

Yes I've seen this figure at a local store and almost picked her up... I Know what you mean. I also like the box design.

[Shinobi2u]

Hey Siye, here's a shot of the Kasumi. Best I could do right now, my camera and lighting suck.


Some other sexy stuff that just arrived today from internet dealings.


Any other people have some new additions from internet purchases, etc?

[Shinobi2u]

Thanks guys for the feedback.

I don't know if it's because I live in California that I have a wider source of stores to compare prices. On the other hand, a majority of these-Ca based online stores don't have an actual brick-and-mortar storefront, so I get dinged on Ca. sales tax.

The place near where I live mainly deals with a hodge podge of anime/figure/comic/pokemon/trading cards/video games/replica weapons/etc., so in other words they're stretched out so thin that they don't specialize in anything so it's a bit more random. Also, since I don't think they have real sturdy ties with distributors and such, they charge more and the selection is limited and whatever.

There are other places, but I have to drive in opposite directions to get there.

I only buy things that are of relevance to me; I would never sell any figures just to make room. heh, I'll make room. I wouldn't sell anything that I collected. That's why I write down and look over all the things and evaluate what I'm gonna want in the end. I make the attachment before the item I'm collecting is ever bought, so I don't look at it down the road and wonder why I have it to begin with.

nekoarc, I would be afraid to put pretty, white Rei in the grass, but that's just me.
