I like the first photo! the fluffy thingy looks good with Taiga ^^

that was really close, you almost get scammed! ^^; I try my best not to buy stuff from the internet unless I am really going despo. Anyway, I never trusted ebay from the beginning ^^;

@Persocom-san:
i would at least hope for either a re-release of for them to make either an ami or minorin figure to go with taiga

@Uzumakiworld:
see with amazon you can get fakes from them too. I rarely purchase a figure other than kid nemo or hobby search. it’s only for rare figures that i’ll go to ebay.

I happened to purchase only ONE Fake from Ebay, and that was my Konata nendoroid. I new it was a fake, but it was $6.00 so I just bought it.

That really sucks about your Ebay Account though. I didn’t know they could track people individually using paypal accounts or credit card numbers. Have you tried Amazon.com however? It’s a very good alternative- if not better than Ebay. I’ve purchased a lot of figures there for great deals. Shipping & Handling is way cheaper too. The only downside, Figmas are crazy expensive. Atleast $10 more than other sites.

Taiga is very moe & Tsundere(sp) I like the sitting pose, it looks nice next to a lot of standing figures. I also like how her hands are open for random items

You’re photoshoots are awesome! I love the different settings for each figure.

Thanks

figures that come out before series don’t make me happy, it really sucks for people that don’t want to spend a fortune and go through this kind of hassle. I would love that figure now that the anime is going strong because I fell in love with the series, but I am not shelling out crazy money for something worth probably half that price. Hopefully they’ll either make another figure similar to it, or re-release this one.

@chun:
they should sine the anime has gotten relatively popular people would love it

@pus2meong:
you know that doesn’t always work, mine is that i only buy from users with a perfect feedback, or if they have negatives i search them down and see if they even mention bootlegs. Second i demand pictures of the figure and ti’s box with the stickers to prove their authenticity

@Tim:
yeah i knew she was released cause of the novel and was based on that design, but i’m only complaining since at the time she was released i hadn’t even heard of the so i didn’t bother to place a pre-order. I know for many figure collectors if they had re-leased her around now they’d go crazy for her

@Spirit Rubi:
well thanks, guess it means i’m progressing ^^

@Acesan:
well maybe since i was printing them myself? but then it wasn’t listed how they were made, just that they were anime posters, and i didn’t have anyone complain really.

@Blowfish:
yeah i don’t worry if it’s Tokyo hunter but if it’s someone else i only use eBay as a last resort

@Mini:
yeah she’s very hard to find now and even on ebay i only see one by the same seller who gave me trouble and now wants $123.61 for her.

No wonder I couldn’t find this figure it was released before the series! -_- I’m a huge Taiga fan and I was planning on getting this one
(http://www.kidnemo.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=377_1_1336&products_id=4394)

But then I saw this one by Max Factory and I was looking all over but couldn’t find it

I try to avoid ebay at all costs since i had some bad experiences with it.Its a different thing with trusted sellers like tokyohunter tough…

Im with you on the stupid figure releases short before a show is airing.I would have loved to get the Kemeko/EmuEmu Nendoroid/Figure combo but its nearly impossible to find it at a reasonable price.

Im enjoying ToraDora alot at the moment but i would prefer a Minori figure^^

Same boat as Tim, got mine when they were scanlating the manga. I only happened to read that manga completely at random as well and it was a nice surprise of a story

I do think this Max Factory Taiga is the best quality Taiga version out there at the moment. Saw the other ones and I think there’s something missing.

Anyway, good job on getting this figure, and lucky you didn’t get screwed by that ebay seller!

Btw, what is so wrong about selling anime posters?

I really hope they do a re-release for her. She’s so cute and I love Toradora! X3

And I love how your photo shoots keep getting more amazing, I love all of your backgrounds. Keep it up. <3
