Do not buy from JP Figures. They are a scam.

Where can you get Fumos in Tokyo?
Akiba Hobby, AmiAmi, Lashinbang, and K-Books in Akihabara. Animate in Ikebukuro. Mandarake and Surugaya have multiple locations.

My fumo Alice and Marisa want more friends but I'm not eady to buy another one. However with (maybe) another quarantine in my country, I think it could be the right time to pick up a new skill.

So I want to try and make my custom fumo but I'm overall a beginner in sewing. Any tips/guides ?
I'm also a bit at loss about materials. I guess I should buy felt for hair, whatever fabric I want for clothes and some plush stuffing, but what about the body ?

how do I buy

>> No.24803445

>>24803302
Follow this general process, think of the character you want. Then, think of what fumo has an expression that matches what you want in a fumo of that character. Buy them, as for other supplies, I use knitted fabrics for clothing due to its softer and stronger nature, alongside it oftentimes not fraying when cut. For hair, I have used minky, blizzard fleece, and anti-pill fleece, and all of them are rather good for fumo hair. Much like clothing fabric though, just go to a fabric store, find the colors you need, and then just start feeling different fabrics to see what feels good to you and looks good at the same time. For painting eyes, which is often necessary, its actually quite easy, just take it slow and remember youll probably need to apply multiple layers, use an acrylic paint, and youll be fine. Removing the clothing of the preexisting fumo is easy, there are 1-2 anchor stitches on the belly button and directly opposed from that on the back, snip those and you can either slide off or bisect the clothing. The hair its really just giving a fumo a haircut down to the scalp with a pair of fabric shears. Last thing, making a fumo is not the hardest thing in the world. Take your time, be patient, and itll turn out fine. There may be times throughout the whole process wherein you think its turning out terrible, it doesnt look good, etc. When incomplete, do not let its current look make you think it looks terrible. Lastly, dont be afraid to mess up, making clothes you can easily redo, same with hair patterns. Removing the hair is hard to truly mess up on. and as long as you take it slowly, eye painting should bring you no trouble.

I'm actually working on one from scratch myself, as I can't really afford to buy one. I don't have one in person to reference, so I'm not sure if this is quite right, but I'm using a skin tone fleece from Joanns. It... doesn't actually look much like a fumo, but I'm sure you could make it look more like one with a better reference. I'm making a Wriggle one, since I won't be able to buy one of her anyway. I've made her entirely out of fleece, and though I haven't made the clothes yet, I'm making that out of fleece too.

Frankly, if I had to do it again, I would change the face. A lot. However, with enough experimenting, you can get something you like. The official fumos make eyes using embroidery I think, but I can't do that with my machine, so I used fleece. Honestly, I think you could easily make something better than mine, but it was also the first quality plushie I've ever made.

In conclusion, I tried things to see if they worked until I got something that looked good enough. That's what I need to do with the clothes too.

Anecdotally, I have had zero issues for the eight times using Big in Japan as a forwarder since January 2018. ¥500 to forward a package as-is, plus whatever your chosen shipping option costs, for which the rates are on their website https://www.biginjap.com/en/content/1-delivery

>>24814900
Using a forwarder (or proxy) is easy, since their websites are almost always in English (assuming). Using Gift's website is mildly difficult if you can use Google Translate and is very difficult if you can't and also can't read runes.


It's probably worth pointing out that Gift doesn't technically charge your card until they are ready to ship. They do place a pre-charge/reservation/hold/whatever for a similar (or the same) value though, so you basically can't spend that money, which is then cancelled when they charge it.

Shipping is estimated to begin in October.

Yeah trial and re-trial until you reach good enough is probably the way to go
Fleece seems a bit more fluffy than the fumo body usually is but the tone is right. I'll go in a fabric shop to feel what is the closest to what I want.
I don't have a machine so sewing will take ages but if that second quarantine hits this won't be a real problem I guess.

Anyway thanks for your experience
I'll start by making a pattern, will share it here if it turns out nice in the end.

I would recommend using a forwarder. Some proxies have had purchasing limits applied to them, in the past.

As mentioned above you can pre-order via White Rabbit(Maybe other forwarders?).

>As mentioned above you can pre-order via White Rabbit(Maybe other forwarders?).
Keep in mind here that White Rabbit is a proxy and not a forwarder. I know Zenmarket also allows pre-orders, however the problem is whether they put in the order fast enough before orders close. Whereas you are the one placing the order directly when using a forwarder, which will probably be faster than a proxy. If you are using a proxy I would recommend telling them about the specific date orders open (see link).

Hello. I'm from South America too. I got them from Amiami when they still had stock. Each of them costed me around 30kCLP between buying and shipping(around $45 burgers at the time), which was honestly not that expensive. I used SAL, which was one of the cheapest options, and the cost ranged between 600yen and 1300 yen to Chile. Pay in mind it was a relatively small box, and I only ordered one each time I ordered, but if you can afford the 4k yen that a new fumo costs, then you can probably afford the 1.3k shipping.

I honestly would be more wary of customs. Mine's not that bad, honestly, but I've heard horror stories from people from my neighbour countries.

If by that you mean wait until Gift opens the orders then yes. No one can order before they open, not even proxies.

>Then I need to quickly figure out the forwarding service to let them have it?
I don't quite understand what you mean by this. Basically you make an account at a forwarding service who will give you a Japanese address. This way you can make an account at gift online shop who does not ship outside of Japan. For the address you use the one that the forwarder provides you.

Time zone brainlet here, what time EST do the orders open?

And correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the process is:
1. Purchase Fumo on Gift using the forwarder as the shipping address
2. Go to forwarder, place order with them.
3. Wait and hope it the soft goes through.

I know proxies and forwarders are different with different processes, so I'm just planning on forwarding since I'm able to purchase from Gift directly. They just can't ship directly to me.

I kind of want a Youmu to go with Yuyuko and (mostly) complete my set of protagonists, I like the design of Kourindo Marisa quite a bit more than UFO, and Shion might be a nice pick-up whether I choose to keep her or if I actually get to the point I wish to, use her to custom-right another character.

A word of warning that Big in Japan is not shipping things to certain countries currently, and all items will be on indefinite hold until postal service resumes. All shipping to the US is on hold, and only EMS and Air are shipping to Canada, with SAL on hold.

I know the Fumos don't ship until October, but this still might be something to keep in mind.

I might be incorrect here but from what I can gather from their users' guide it seems like an item total goes down when a user places an item in their cart rather than orders it.

For me it always looks like Reisen fumos are really sad when they are sitting on their own. They kind of keep their head hanging and have this shy smile.

Can somebody recommend me a good company for the international bank transfer? I don't have a credit card, so it was my only option. I tried TransferWise but I couldn't find the branch that Gift specifies. I'm currently trying OFX, but they're asking for a ton of information that I don't have. Please help, Alice is at stake

I ordered my 2 fumos through white rabbit a few days ago, and then had my doubts last minute and places a second order through tenso.

turns out White Rabbit pulled through and got my order, so now I have 2 satoris and 2 kokoros coming.

Should I cancel my order on one of the sites, or keep them?

>> No.24887762

>>24887714
You could keep them and resell them to a less fortunate /fumo/ anon.

You could sell that Satori to me, for example

>> No.24887839

>>24887714
Gift online shop does not allow cancellation of items, so you have to sell them yourself if you don't want doubles.

White rabbit finally decided to be honest and cancelled my order for Shion, saying that she ran out during the first hour or so and recommended that I should order before the purchases open next time. Would have been nice if I knew I could have done that before this.

It's usually 2 times a year right after Reitaisai but this year is obviously a bit different
If it'll happen again this year, then not before December, but they might just skip it and return to normal schedule next year

I think I'm actually going to cry. Somehow I had it in my head that this just wasn't going to happen. I'm ecstatic.
This is two for two with White Rabbit Express, but I do think I will opt for their forwarding service next time instead. This was way too stressful for me.
Thanks again for all the help /fumo/. I do not post often but I am very grateful for all of the advice shared here.

It's definitely nice to order it yourself which removes a lot of stress. However if you're going to use a forwarder next time I'd recommend setting up an account with them and gift a bit in advance, because otherwise it won't be less stressful. Also congrats on the softs.
