How a Girl Figures

It was so hot today, like blazing heat. Even now at 1 am it’s till too damn hot. My parents like to never ever turn on the a/c. So I’m stuck in this hot house with no way to cool me off but a ceiling fan and an open window. So i do what i always do i try and cool off any way possible. I found this old paper fan i was given last year at AX, a promotional item for FFXI Online. So i removed all the paper from on top and printed out my own awesome fan. yes this is a filler post but only cause i had a few figure shoots planned today but i ended up having too many things to do and i’m postponing it for later. Well without further ado here is my awesome fan! Continue Reading »

Once again another yoko Figure was announced. Why do I have to love this show so much? Why did i ever promise myself that i’ll own EVERY Gurren Lagann Figure Made? Cause now I’m going to be broke FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE! This Yoko is Amazing, but then i will have to admit, i’m fully biased and as i stated already i’ll buy any GL figure. I’m not even a fan of Yoko’s Post-Time Skip outfit. I think her tits look saggy in it… But she looks so great in this pose. I’m just hoping that Wave doesn’t screw this one up, I only have one Wave figure and it’s decent but i haven’t seen many other good ones.

I’ve been wanting to do this cosplay for AX as well but didn’t want to say anything until i got my wig in the mail. I was worried that it wouldn’t arrive in time or that it wouldn’t be the right color. I finally got it in the mail today and i LOVE IT! I’ve had some of the outfit ready already but i didn’t want to buy anything else until i was absolutely sure i would have it ready in time for AX. Well looks like not only will i be doing my Shugo Chara cosplay but an Aria cosplay as well!

As many figure collectors know the pains of figure storage. There are some of us who toss out all the boxes and there are other like me who keep them all. Why do you ask? Well there are a few reasons, #1 if i ever decide to sell said figure having the box will help retain it’s value. #2 if i ever need to store them for the summer to prevent leaning, and #3 if i ever move it’ll be the best way to move my figures and prevent as much damage as possible. In my entire collection of figures there are only a few that i don’t have the boxes for. Ok only one, my Good Smile Company Kaname Chidori, she doesn’t have her box. I bought her without the box from this one store but I’m sure that she’s a real figure since i saw the box before i bought it. But when i went back a while later to get her the owner threw out her box since she was on display in their glass cabinet he thought there was no point in keeping her box…

First off I DID NOT DRAW THIS, SO DON’T ASK ME TO MAKE OTHER VERSION OF THIS IMAGE… second can you name everyone in this image and who they are cosplaying? or shall i say Crossplaying ^_~ Bonus points for people who can figure out the seifuku that simon is wearing cause i am having hard time figuring out what it is from…

I know this is a pretty lame post, but lately Kid Nemo has become my absolute favorite online retailer of figures in a long time. I’ve heard some people complain of them but really their customer service is top notch and i have nothing to complain about with their services. When i e-mail them with a question i usually get a response within 1 day or so. Plus the prices are reasonable and i like how they give you an exact date with pre-orders, so you have an idea of when they’ll charge you for your order. What i hated about HLJ was the fact that it would only say the month, meaning i could be charged the first of the month, the middle or the end of the month. So sometimes i would expect it to be at the end of the month and i’d end up getting charged at the beginning of the month and i’d be over drafted on my bank account.

Well what i love is how Kid Nemo let me know they would be at AX before they even announced it on their site! Makes me feel almost important ^_^ I’m a huge bargain shopper when it comes to AX i go to every booth to compare prices between figures but i have a feeling I’ll be spending more money at Kid Nemo’s booth than anyone else’s!

Also checking back here During AX, last year there were a few booths that sold bootlegs and i’ll be posting pictures of them here if they pop up at AX this year again to help you all make sure you stay away!

So I finally finished the bag! I’m pretty excited about how it came out! I was going to buy one online but the only place i found it wanted over $80 for it plus shipping. Plus the plaid wouldn’t match with my plaid so i opted to make it myself!
