So I was at an anime con yesterday with my little sister, and she bought a trading figurine (pic related). She was really excited that she didn't know which one was in it, and loves this little chick to death.

I was thinking that I may want to buy a box of them so we can try and collect a set together. First, is there a Japanese name for these trading figurines? And second, is there a specific line you guys would recommend for my sister and I?

>> No.4865952

If you're not paying at least $50 per figure, you don't belong here.

>> No.4865951

to make a long story short, just rape her.

>> No.4865956

Those are Nendoroid figures. They are all adorable. And they make so many from so many different games that you can't miss with anything really.

Vocaloid is your friend.

>> No.4865960

looks like a nendoroid meiko (vocaloid)

>> No.4865961

That one is Meiko (either her or alternate Meiko). There are 10-11 in that set, plus a secret character. Randomly they're about 15 dollars each.

>> No.4865962

That's Meiko of Vocaloid.

Figure collecting is fun. I imagine it would be extra fun if you had someone to do it with.

>> No.4865963

>>4865948
Nendoroid Puchi's they go for 500Y each, and they sell as box sets of 12 for about 60-70USD!

Have fun collecting!

(Protip: If you spent more than 5usd on that figure you got ripped off.)

>> No.4865973

>>4865963

Well, it was Anime con prices, and I told my sister she could choose something. Ended up paying AU$9.

So to clarify, all trading figurines are called Nendoroid Puchis? Or is that just this line?

nendoroid petits / puchis are indeed very cute. I do suggest collecting them.

There are tons of puchi nendoroids available(pic related). There are also a ton of limited nendoroid puchi's, that can go for $100+, a few extremely limited ones can even go in the $1000 range.

So is there a series that would compete with Nendoroid Petit / Puchi in suitability? And is there a technical name for figurines like these? Just want to check my options. It doesn't matter if we start a new series than the one we've got... Meiko? here from. My sister will love her regardless I'm sure, from the memory. She had a good time at the con yesterday.

People might hate me for this

Recently I've had the chance to buy two of from a display without the chance to open beforehand

My main goals were Miku or Hachune and Neru or Haku

After trying to figure out which of them might have more weight (due to more hair etc) I hand-picked two boxes:

Haku and Neru.

She's ten now, so next year she'll be eleven.

Also, thanks everyone for your help so far. Not sure which of the lines will be best. According to /toy/, there's:

-Vocaloid
-2 sets of Lucky Star
-2 sets of Death Note
-3 sets of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
-Fate/Stay Night (coming soon)
-Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (coming soon)
-The iDOLM@STER

They've also done mini-series featuring 1-4 characters, including:
-Nyoro~n Churuya-san
-Touhou Project
-Lucky Star x Street Fighter
-Vocaloid Race Queens
The mini-sets are usually bundled with a book or video game.
