I'm a huge fan of Akira, and when I first started collecting figures one of the first figures I got was Alpha's Kaneda. The one of him sitting on the red chair. Ever since I got him I wanted the Tetsuo to match, but haven't had the chance to get him. I spotted him once at a con for $40 which wasn't a… [more]

Kyo-Ani's first step into making anime figures was such a lovely success. When Yuki was first announced I was apprehensive on getting her since Kyo-ani never made any figures before. It seems from their recent releases of K-on figures that this first beautiful release was a fluke since those suck,… [more]
Since I've been selling stuff on Etsy I've been looking around from time to time of items of my favorite characters, when I spotted Yoko on this etsy vendor I knew I had to have it! When I saw they did custom items I also know I had to have a Sailor Moon! Yoko is sooo adorable! You know how much I… [more]
Now this new figure by Kaiyodo is still debatable in my book for pre-order. I won’t lie, she’s a great character in this series and it would be nice to have both her and Yotsuba together. But do I really need her? I guess once she is out for pre-order I’ll pre-order her since it’s for Nov and I have only one other figure for that month. Lately I’ve been really good in deciding which figures I want and which to get. Before I would have about 4 pre-orders for each month. But now I feel I make better choices in my figure selections.
The main reason why I’m being much more selective is of two reasons.
1.) Lack of money
Now normally this isn’t really a problem, I just save up the money for the figures I’m planning to get, but with rent, and food and gas it’s getting to be harder each time.
2.) I sadly regret some of the figure choices I’ve made
When I first started buying figures I didn’t really pay much attention to detail. I ended up buying a few nasty figures, just for the sake of having them. Like the Few Atelier Sai figures I have like 1/6 Asahina Mikuru Red Bunny, 1/6 Chidori Kaname White Inner, 1/6 Haruhi Suzumiya Black Bunny, and 1/6 Teresa Testarossa Race Queen Yellow (Inner White). They aren’t the greatest Quality figures. The FMP figures are out of character, and the Haruhi figure’s face just doesn’t look right.
Now back on the topic, I do like this figure. The price isn’t much either 2,600 yen so I guess I’ll have no problem affording it. At least HLJ lets you cancel orders so if I change my mind or a better figure comes out I can cancel it easily.
