Tip #2: Quality over quantity. If you're a beginner fig collector don't buy a bunch of gashapon figs just to build a big collection quickly. Figure collecting takes time and patients. A good collector knows when to wait for that one, special fig. If you end up buying too much in a short period of time they'll end up sitting in your closet collecting dust.

Oops, posted the wrong picture. This is the comparison pic.

If someone can't work these out themselves, they have brain damage.

Tip #3: Stop being a fucking loser and lay out of the your doll shit. Retard,

What about buying them from chinese sellers on ebay?

wat

I don't have patients, what do I do now?

>>2208159
Depends on the seller, what show the figure is from, and how long the figure has been on the market. Some sellers from HK and China are legitimate sellers. For example: if you're pre-ordering a niche fig at regular price from a seller it's a pretty safe bet. However, if you're ordering a fig from a big title that's been out in the market for a long time it might be a bootleg. Also a lot of companies put holo stickers on their products so look for that. If it doesn't contain a sticker it might be bootleg.

Hire someone to stab someone else, then take them in.

>>Tip #1

Of course this is a tip for "newbies" but I don't see the problem in buying a gashapon set for a show I really like. Sometimes life is cruel and that's all they produce, so your favorite show gets crap while ikki tousen and evangelion still have figures made. There's also the issue of being a collector of specific series and trying to obtain as much of it as possible. In particular, finding anything mecha musume is rather difficult, considering the genre has very little except gashapon. But the gashapon designs themselves are interesting, if lacking any real posing or fine detail.

My first figure was a cheap $10 or so Matsuri from Ichigo Mashimaro I got years ago and to this day I still love having it around.

No seriously, why you fat nerds buy so many dolls? It's just a fucking waste of money, and all they're collecting is dust.

I have a better idea, save the money and get some new clothes and you might get a girlfriend. I doubt you're even care about figures after you have your first pussy. Time to get laid fellas.

Fascinating.

But the figures on the left have heavy assault weapons and all the figure on the right has is a stupid plate...

The stabber or the stabbee?

What figure is the ops pic of?

>>2208224
Shana, I think.

So... If i'm deciding between a mediocre figure of Noriko Takaya or a great figure of Asuka Langley, you are saying its logical for me to get the Asuka?

So I get a really good figure of a character I hate and the one I want languishes alone?

What is your thought process here?

HOW ABOUT A HIGH QUALITY FIG FROM A SHOW I LIKE

>>2208136
So what's the difference in quality?
I don't see it.

Both. The stabber as a mental patient, the stabbed as a regular patient.
