The last gunpla I made was good ol RX-78. The only ones I see in stores around me are from either Unicorn on IBO, which I haven't seen yet. If I'm going to get a gunpla I want it to be from a show I've seen.

I just finished MG Deathscythe Hell and MG Heavyarms minus the stickers because I hate the stickers. I'll do them eventually, maybe once I actually have a spot to set them up.
Pretty casual builder though, only been into it for like 2-3 years and I don't go super hardcore like the folks who repaint and weather their kits. Panel lining and a top coat are good enough for me. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Nice collections, everyone! Yeah at this point I've got something like 4 (soon to be 6) figures tied up in COVID hell. I'm not too anxious about getting them eventually but I'm definitely going to be paranoid about taking stock and making sure everything is accounted for once things start moving again.

So uh
A) Who here has a Myfigurecollection account? https://myfigurecollection.net/profile/Rindou27/collection/ Slowly growing again. B) Favourite place to buy figures? Guessing Amiami is top for everyone. But I've heard good things about Solaris and Mandarake. Not too familiar with the US stores as it's easier to ship from Japan to Europe. I've been meaning to get a few extra Good Smile Monogatari figures to go with Senjougahara. Basically half the ones Menji has, but seems like to get them Solaris might be the best option. Also what kind of display cases for single figures are those Menji? --- Congrats to Eli Ayase's #1 fan BK_Sheikah00 on winning the BYIG Guru Contest. ... Copied to Clipboard!

There's mine. Senjougahara with the stationary is probably the old figure I want the most. And yeah, Amiami. I also like TokyoOtakuMode, but the reward system isn't as good as it used to be. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Amiami is my go-to. I don't notice imperfections as much as others seem to, so I'm fine paying much less for a pre-owned figure and they have a good selection. Solaris is good too, their prices are all over the places. Sometimes really cheap but other times ridiculously expensive. I've used Mandarake for harder to find figures before. TokyoOtakuMode is the only US store I know of (they are right?). But they just order from Japan so any new figure comes months after Amiami would get it to you. Sometimes their points make it a better deal. voltch posted... I've been meaning to get a few extra Good Smile Monogatari figures to go with Senjougahara. Basically half the ones Menji has, but seems like to get them Solaris might be the best option. I really love that set. I slowly picked them up from all over the place. I do have Senjougahara separately but forgot to take a picture. voltch posted... Also what kind of display cases for single figures are those Menji? I got those from Kotobukiya. And I really wish I bought more because I can't find them anywhere now. The tall ones are great for ones that can't fit in a detolf. --- Menji+ https://imgur.com/F5UEyUw | https://imgur.com/pPZsSZU Congrats to azuarc! [ https://myanimelist.net/profile/Menjii ] ...

Oh, I had no idea that figure collection site was a thing!
AmiAmi is a great site, so is HLJ. I've also heard good things about Amazon.jp , that's where I have Figuarts Mandalorian preordered so we'll see how that goes. For western figures, Dorkside Toys and BBTS are great along with normal old Amazon. Amazon also pretty good for figuarts, at least the DBZ ones. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

voltch 07/25/20 3:36:35 PM #33: |
From what I hear AmiAmi's grading system for pre-owned figures is very strict and JP Collectors do seem to take care of their stuff better than the average westerner.
Might be the only way I get some of the stuff I missed the boat on. What upcoming stuff you guys most excited for? Thx to pandemic lockdown I uh....got back in the game and while prices have gone up a bunch, seems like we're seeing a lot more extravagent looking figures with crazy cool bases. --- Congrats to Eli Ayase's #1 fan BK_Sheikah00 on winning the BYIG Guru Contest. ...

Oh, here's some customizing I did: Lightning Collection Goldar. While I always liked the sculpt, I never liked how he was colored. So I decided to give his armor a couple coats of gold paint and a wash.
Before: After one coat" After second coat and a wash: I'm liking how it is coming out! The photos don't really do it justice, the difference is quite striking in real life. Once I get his wings and sword done, I'll have to take some better shots. I know I missed a few spots (I was a little worried about painting over the joints, didn't know if the paint would make it harder to articulate), and I realize this whole thing is very amateurish, but for my first repaint like this I'm please with the results. --- ...

I've got several guys from the Power of the Primes line. The dinobots, Jazz, Starscream, and a couple more that I got in bundles with those guys. Went with those since the bundles made it easy to start a collections for relatively cheap.
Would like to look into the Masterpiece stuff but once covid hit I decided I should save my money for now. Plus I'm now in the middle of moving so I dunno if I'll have the space to grow the collection anyway. Nice! Sky Lynx was never one of my favorites but his toy looks really cool ...
