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]
My friend and I on different etsy's of course are selling some cute Dollfie Dream Items! First up I've got some cute one of a kind headbands for Dollfie Dreams, only one of each color for sale and at a great price of $2.50USD Each it's impossible not to get them all! Click the images to get to the… [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]
Some figure delays, normally they suck big time since it just means you’ll have to wait longer for amazing figures to come out. But for me, they are great news since I’m still a bit broke from being jobless for so long. I only recently got a new job but even still hours will suck until Black Friday.
Black Friday being the day after Thanksgiving where almost every store in the US has a giant sale and if you work retail that means you are doomed to work that day. Also with my working at The Disney Store we’ll be swamped with parents buying presents for their kids all up until Christmas!
Poor Black Rock Shooter got pushed back to December due to production issues, and Mio got pushed to January. Greats news for me since hopefully by then I’ll be able to afford all these awesome figures I’ve got ordered.
You should be able to pre-order these lovely girls at any of these fine retailers!

Well you got a point there ^^; …..
Tough i really dont know whats the point of delaying so much specially with alter….
well, i guess they wanna make sure she’s perfect since she’s such a popular item
Not again…
I now wonder if Black Rock Shooter will ever see the light of day…
I lost count how many times it’s been delayed…
It sucks, but then for me if she stayed to her original release date i would never have been able to save up for her
It is a good thing in this case. BRS is a very long-term purchase, in that I’m not even considering buying her now. Is it the same for you? Oh, and you have good taste in figures – those two are gorgeous.
well, not getting her now is a bad idea! She’ll be so hard to find once this production run is done. You’ll have to pray for a re-release, and knowing GSC they won’t be doing ones at all
GAH! I was very upset to see Mio on delay…! I was really looking forward to her!
…WAIT. JANUARY? Not even December?!! ARGH.
Its seriously unacceptable what they are doing to BRS. Three figure delays? For production issues? They should have mastered it by now…. and because of black rock shooter’s delay, everything else in line is getting delayed too. Annoying.
I ordered Saber Lily from OtakuFuel… I heard about the site from you first! Otakufuel has nice prices, but they are sooo late. She’s only comming in the mail this friday for me. But they are a great service, so thanks for posting about them!
I guess they’re late since they have to wait for them to be shipped to the US but yes, they are a good site to purchase from!
Delays are a blessing in disguise. I know the pain when Saber Lily was delayed from June all the way to end of September. But more time to save. Free up your cash flow. The important thing is you’re guaranteed to get your figure. And when you finally get them, you’ll forget about the delays.
For the BRS figure, I’d prefer they get the crafsmanship right instead of rushed to retail. Good Smile is watching out for our satisfaction.
can’t agree with you more, sadly updated news is i had to cancel my orders anyways due to lack of funds
I want that Black Rock Shooter fig so bad! It’s so super cool! I hope I’m able to get it because I’m super broke at the moment too. I hope I hope I hope I hope…
i need to track her down now once i get some funds!
I am usually pretty happy about delays aswell since it helps to keep your money together.Alot of Items seem to have been moved to December/January now and thats a bit expensive ^^;;
it’s painful when you have the holidays and you have to give people presents
I am interested to see the non advertised photos of the Mio figure and to see a full review on her. The face from the picture posted almost seems off. The thing I am interested to find out is how well the figure stays on the stand. Nearly all of my Nanoha series figures have a single foot two peg stand and the weight distribution tends to cause warping to the plastic pegs. >< my poor Vita figure barely stays on her stand now.
i need to track Mio down now too that i had to cancel my order, she looks cute on some of the reviews i checked out
The delays don’t effect me, thankfully, but I know most of the figure collecting community let out a huge groan to hear about yet another delay for Black Rock Shooter XD
i now wish i were delayed months more so i didn’t have to cancel
I’m glad for you that the delay for those two figures suits you.
Without a job it’s difficult.
I hope everything will go better for you by now.
Good luck for Black Friday.
it’s been super tough without a job
You work at The Disney Store? I did that one summer, not the best. I used to love Disney until I worked for them. Bunch of racists…
Anyway, that BRS is epic, still need to watch K-ON! The delays are a blessing for you, b/c I know you want this one in the mean time:

Part of HobbyFan’s Black Friday sale (I know you lurves the sales, lol). Save those Disney Dollars!
figures arent usually my thing… (i have none)… but somehow i really want the BRS q.q
she’s uber sexy
Delays don’t bother me so much, if anything they usually benefit me.
same here!
I don’t buy many figures but delay is a pain for me… It bother me to change my paying plans lol
Fortunately i’m patient. I’ve spotted BRS few days ago but pre-ordered another one of the same character.
she’s such an amazing design, but i want them all!
Hey DQ… they’ve released the Black Sword ver. of BRS
have you seen it? its… vexing ~.~
yes, i need her too!
hey is that figure from an anime
