Miku Hatsune Nendoroid

October 19, 2008 By: Nopy Category: Figures

Four months after I placed my order, I went to the post office yesterday to finally get my Miku Hatsune nendoroid.

I missed the first release of this figure, so when I found out that there was a second batch coming, I pre-ordered right away, hence the long wait. (more…)

Melissa Seraphy Nendoroid Ordered

September 22, 2008 By: Nopy Category: Figures

Well, since I decided not to get the Pixie Hiyori figure by Good Smile Company, to make up for it I decided to get a Melissa Seraphy Nendoroid. As you can see, she also carries around a cute little pumpkin. I think it’s the perfect figure to get since Halloween is just several weeks away. (more…)

Pixie Hiyori – To Buy or Not To Buy

September 19, 2008 By: Nopy Category: Figures

Those of you who are really into figures will probably have already seen this 1/8 scale figure of Hiyori Pixie from Chu X Chu Idol by Good Smile Company. She has a retail price of 7200 yen which is roughly ~$70CDN and will be released in January. When I saw this figure the first thing I thought was “I want one”, but then I decided to reconsider. Yes, she looks cute, and yes, there’s a pumpkin on her head, which makes her even more awesome, but there’s something stopping me from buying her. (more…)

Konomi Yuzuhara

September 02, 2008 By: Nopy Category: Figures

Ok, here is the last figure from my figure splurge, Konomi Yuzuhara from To Heart 2. Konomi is now the cutest non-nendoroid figure that I own and poses in a pink swimsuit for everyone to admire :)

Taiga Aisaka

September 01, 2008 By: Nopy Category: Figures

To tell you the truth, I got this figure because of the cat. Wanting to buy this figure was also the reason I bought all the other figures that I got last week. One item in the shopping cart just lead to the next and before I knew it I had ordered six figures. That just goes to show how persuasive a cat can be…

Before getting this figure, I didn’t know anything about Tora Dora, which is the manga that Taiga Aisaka is from. I read the first volume a few days ago though, and it has some potential. Will be looking forward to the anime version that will be airing this fall.

Tsukino Azusagawa

September 01, 2008 By: Nopy Category: Figures

Yakitate Japan isn’t one of those anime with much ecchi material, so I guess that’s why Alter decided to make a figure of Tsukino in a swimsuit ^.^

Louise Valliere

August 28, 2008 By: Nopy Category: Figures

Zero no Tsukaima isn’t exactly one of my favourite anime, but I like tsundere characters like Louise which is why I got this figure.

Eri Sawachikawa

August 27, 2008 By: Nopy Category: Figures

School Rumble is one of my favourite anime and Eri is one of my favourite characters, so that’s why I bought this figure. I especially like the bikini she’s wearing and her body was sculpted fairly decently.

Meifeng Liu

August 27, 2008 By: Nopy Category: Figures

Ok, I said I would post some pictures of the new figures I got, so here’s the first set. I decided to open my figures by biggest box first and so I’m going to post pictures in that order too. First up is Meifeng Liu; as many other owners of this figure have pointed out, taking off and putting on her clothes is a real pain (that sounds kinda dirty). It took me about an hour to take off her clothes to get the plastic underneath out. I’m not a photographer so don’t expect good pictures, but here’s the first set:

Figure Splurge

August 24, 2008 By: Nopy Category: Figures

This week I got all the figures that I ordered at the beginning of the month. As you can see, I bought 6 in total. I know that doesn’t sound like much to some people, but I’ve collected 9 figures in 1 year, so getting 6 in a couple weeks is a lot for me.
