Nopy's Blog

As much as it pains me to do this, I am announcing that I am selling some of my figures. I am running out of space in my room (I literally have to step over things now), and until I can afford my own house, I have to either get rid of stuff and/or stop getting more stuff. I only had time to take pictures of some of the figures I’m planning to sell, so there will be a part 2 to this sale later.

Conditions of Nopy’s Big Figure Sale:

• All figures are sold as-is and come in their original boxes. I have included pictures of each figure just before boxing them so you can see exactly what you will get.
• Prices are in Canadian dollars.
• Shipping is not included in the price and will vary depending on the destination and shipping method.
• I will only accept payments through Paypal.
• This is a first come first serve sale, so whoever sends me an email first stating they want a figure will get the chance to buy it first. Please note that I said email, do not leave a comment here saying you want to buy a figure (I need a way to contact you back and some people typo their emails in the comments).
• If payment is not received within 4 days, the figure will go to the next person interested in the figure.
• Once payment is received, I will ship out the figure within a week. I take no responsibility for lost or damaged figures once I drop it off at the post office.
• Promise that you will take good care of the figure.

Shipping Costs

• International small packet (includes $100 coverage): $18
• USA small packet (includes $100 coverage): $13
• Canada regular parcel: $10 to $18 (Price depends on size of box and distance from Edmonton.)
• The above shipping prices are with Canada Post. Other shipping methods available upon request, but will cost more.

The prices I’ve set are based on the MSRP of the figure and how likely I’ll ever be able to get another one. So without further ado, here are the figures that are for sale. Additional images are available in the gallary at the end of the post.

EDIT: See part 2 here.

This figure of Hanyuu from Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni Kai by Wave Corporation was done in a matching style to the Rika figure that they released at the same time. Overall I thought they did a better job with Hanyuu than Rika, but you can see for yourself how Hanyuu looks below:

Well, after nearly 4 months working out of town, I finally finished my work and returned home last week. Of course, not being able to open anything that was delivered during those 4 months, it started building up and became a nice Christmas gift from me to me :)

I checked my email this morning to find that Hanyuu and Rika figures are now available for reservation (yay!)

So eariler this week after looking at some anime vectors that people have done, I decided to learn how to do vectors myself so I could make my own wallpapers. Since this was my first time trying to vector something, I decided to do something easy just to get started. My first vector actually doesn’t have any anime characters, I just took a screenshot of the title for Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni Rei from the opening and vectored that.
