This thread isn't getting any love, so I thought I'd post some of my figures.



Here's a batch of some of the smaller anime figures I've got in my cabinet. I plan to spread them out a bit once I get a couple more larger figures I'm planning on acquiring.
Image

Here's the first batch of Sailor Moon figures, lovingly assembled after two+ years of slow releases (plus some extra fire effects for Mars):
Image

And here's the second batch of Sailor Moon figures, plus my two Madoka figures (bonus Jack and Boogie :lol: )
Image

If you didn't notice, I'm only missing ONE Sailor Moon figure. For some reason they decided to release Sailor Pluto last and wouldn't you know it, they made her a limited web exclusive :? So in order to complete my set, as I'd originally planned, I'm going to probably have to shell out about twice as much as the other figures cost me if I want her :cry:

So if anyone knows of any good figure sites that might have her and won't charge me an arm and a leg (I tried Toyz In The Box already. No dice), please let me know. Michi will be eternally grateful.

Gunpla's been destroying my wallet lately. Just yesterday I finished building a G-Self. I need a new shelf. I keep my Transformers figures on top of my vidya shelf, but I don't have much space for much else.

So who else is getting those Virtua Fighter figures?

But, but what about Sailor V, and Chibi Usa (actually you don't need her), and Tuxedo Mask, and evil Sailor Moon, and Super Sailor Moon...

:lol: Sorry Michi, just giving you some friendly shit. Nice collection pictures!

As for Pluto, I checked several sites, but she appears to be sold out across the board. A10 apparently still has her up for "preorder", but that stinks of not being updated, since she came out in December...

Unfortunately your only choice might be to break down and brave the fires of ebay. I didn't know Pluto was a web exclusive, but if that's the case, exclusives never get re-releases... All I can say is best of luck.

I'm planning to. Its just a matter of deciding which colors to get. I have too many toys and I don't need all four. :lol:

If anyone's wondering which figures Strider is referring to:

Yes, they're awesome.

Michi, ImageAnime seems to have pluto in stock.

I've never bought from these guys, but its a cheaper than ebay option to consider.

Bless you, good sir :cry:

EDIT: $12.50 to ship! Holy hell....Oh well, if it goes through it's still $20 cheaper than elsewhere.

Thanks. Sailor V is truly a possibility after I get Pluto. She actually looks really nice and I'm a big Minako fan so....

But yeah, I don't need the Pink Spore, Cape Boy or any alternate version of what I already own. Nine (or ten) figures is good enough for me :lol:

I saw those earlier this week. They look pretty snazzy.

Lookie what came in the mail today~ :D

I love her, but like Mars and Venus her hair is a pain in the ass when it comes to using those damn display stands.

The Nine are assembled! The set is complete!-May Cape Boy and The Pink Spore burn in hell-I can now rest easy! Hallelujah!


So yeah, Image Anime is legit and speedy, if still a bit pricey on the shipping. On the plus side though, they packed it well (box wrapped in tissue paper, placed in bubble mailer, then placed in thick box), it arrived within two days of ordering and it was cheaper than anywhere else, thus not forcing me to brave the bowels of ebay. I'm putting this in the 'win' column and calling it a day.

But I'll still be using Toyz In The Box in the future when at all possible.

Nice man. Sailor Moon is a good series! I am not a "moonie" but I do enjoy this series.
