Let it rest in pieces.

These figures dude.

If what happened to /jp/'s threads bothers you, go check out /a/'s.

>>9327694
From the anecdotal evidence, I would probably rather not

>>9327708
Honestly, they're only bad on the weekends.

No clue why people keep making them on the weekend though.

>>9327724
They're always bad, just moreso on the weekends

>>9327724
Do they post news? Maybe I'll just move to those threads instead of trying to beat life into the ones on /jp/.

>>9327706
How are you (not) quoting ?

>>9327748
Usually.

>>9327748
I don't have enough money to contribute to those threads more than once every 2 months.

Nice meta discussion.

is anyone buying this

>>9327786
I would, but Godoka is keeping me from ordering anything else in November.

I also have Kotobukiya's Mari (Eva), but I have her ordered at HLJ so I can cancel if I need to.

>>9327786
Re-release? I sold mine awhile back when I needed money.

>>9327794
I'd consider Madoka a December release since it will no doubt be delayed.

>>9327795
>Re-release?
yes
>I sold mine awhile back when I needed money.
Did it sell easily?

I've finally preordered this.

I'm so happy right now.

>>9327801
It did since it was always pretty in demand.

I'm finally getting a job after years of being a NEET but all the figures I want are between a year and several years old.

What are my chances of getting them at reasonable prices in reasonable condition? How big is the second hand market?

Not everything that's older is going to be expensive or hard to find. If you can't find them on normal retailers then there's the MFC ad section, eBay, and Mandarake.

Of course you're likely to find bootlegs on eBay, but a little common sense goes a long way.

>>9327786
I preordered it. It's pretty damn cheap so I can handle it and godoka. And I'm sure godoka will just get delayed anyways.

Where do I get hotglue gifs?

Anyone know how long it takes amiami to reopen preorders for a game that's listed as sold out?

>>9327584
Nothing left to buy.
I got all my raymoos.

why havent you preordered your japanese bird yet

>>9330279
You're missing:
Reimu figma
Reimu Toranoana
Miko Miko Suika vol 2.
and perhaps a fumo fumo Reimu. (the deka one if you're serious)

>>9330509
Correction on the first one: Reimu nendoroid.

>>9330322

I already have one pair of tits on preorder.

>>9330509
He's missing a lot more than that if he really wants to show his devotion to Reimu.

>>9330509
>>9330520
I got both the nendo and nendo petit with Aya/Suika. Just dont have space on that display cabinet anymore.
Not gonna get the figma, I dont like those line/bolt in my figs. The other mikomiko suika is pretty terrible though so I will pass.
Also got the nendo fumo and the normal fumofumo.
Didnt get the deka fumo, I bought Marisa instead.

I got bored of collecting figures back in 2009 when they started being churned out at an even more feverish pace than 2008.

There comes a time when you have more figures than you have room for and some just have to be stored away. Now I only buy if a figure really catches my eye, but thanks to anime being largely crappy since 2008 too it's much easier.

I'm still interested in GKs though, I remember when there were more GKs than manufactured figures.

Does anyone know how long it takes to sell figs ?

I've collected about 40-50 over the last 2 years but I'll be moving in september and I can't take them with me. I don't really need the money but I don't see myself just throwing them all away. Then again I'm not sure if I'll get many sells in only 2 months on ebay (I don't even have an account and I wonder if people would buy from someone with 0 sell).

I kept all the boxes but I've thrown away the plastic film usually wrapped around the small parts. Some got damaged too, I really have no idea how much that would be worth.

>>9330728

What are you selling?

And it depends on the demand and availability of the figs, if any were re-released they probably wouldn't be worth nearly as much.

>>9327786
How much is it?

>>9330914
It is only 4k+ in amiami.
Maybe if some idiot forgot to PO in now you can sell it back at 8k.

>>9330911
I tried to make a list : http://myfigurecollection.net/collection/carve/

>>9331117
How much are you willing to sell lucchini for?

>>9331117
I'd be interested in Nadeko and the Sherlock nendroid. How much?

>>9332218
I just saw Homu too, I can buy both if they're around the 10 dollars that it says its worth.

>>9331117
Since this is now a sales thread, how much are you looking for Kanzaki Kaori and Kouhime?

>>9331117
How much for Senjou and Mio

I'm thinking about getting her. I mean for 3000 yen?

>>9332359
And while I'm asking, what about Amae Koromo and Yamamoto Isoroku?

why are figures so expensive

>>9332550
because they're priced by japanese for japanese. in japan, they know they can get away with increasing prices by 10x or more for stuff that's not worth that kind of money, they know otakus'll gladly part with their money for that.

I didn't expect to have people asking right away. Anyway, I'm in France so shipping costs to the US would make it not worth it I'm sure. If you don't mind paying the shipping to wherever you live (or live close to Paris), I left a contact email so as not to shit up the thread any further. I don't want to throw them away but I'm not going to pay to send them either.

Are they ever going to make a non-nintendroid version of this?
Or even a regular nintendroid?
