OK, so, we'll dedicate this thread to all the stuff coming out. Figures and goods that are being announced, things we plan to buy, or things we just plan to drool over. Preorders just went up for an extremely sexy Motoko Kusanagi by Kaitendo. Scheduled for a late-July release and sculpted by Tsuyoshi Takahashi, this is an extremely Masamune-faithful rendition... and I will not be able to afford her, sirs.
>>3354 Apparently, there is also a Kainé figure in the making: http://myfigurecollection.net/item/573928 Maybe we can even dream of a Zero fig someday?
>>3362 >1/7 at most (like the previous Alphamax Sora That makes a great deal of sense. I find 1/8 are, generally, a bit too small but a 1/7 could work. Unfortunately you're right when it comes to the pricing. I feel your pain in terms of space; I'm also quickly running out and need to invest in some new cabinets soon.
I started reading Spice & Wolf for the first time and decided I needed more Holo in my life. I preordered the Holo nendo, she should go nicely with my re-issue Holo figure.
>>3377 Don't you mean Horo?
I just blew ~USD320 total on these two. It was a great deal, each one of them costing me half the least all other resellers were asking for. I caught 2B on eBay from a very kind seller, who already sent me a couple of pics of the parcel before shipping (my name and address on it). Catherine was my first time buying from Solaris Japan; hope it turns out alright.
>>3353 Still pretty good. Might get it
>>3456 Looks really slick.
Caught her preowned at AmiAmi for 2,480 yen. Great deal.
>>3500 good buy
coming soon
>>3332 Painted prototype revealed. It's perfect.
This one can use some work. Great to see them coming, regardless.
>>3515 Great sculpt. I'm impressed with the attention to detail, like how her dress folds and warps differently because of the material.
Nice!
Wow.
>>2792 The sequel: http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?scode=FIGURE-037986
This is really impressive. I love how they have so much stuff balanced on there made to look like it's floating.
>>3548 Indeed very impressive. Looks like it's bound to break at the slightest fidgeting though, probably one of those cases where getting a case for it might be necessary.
>>3516 Preordered.
The base is too much.
I made up my mind and preordered her.
Tempting.
>>3586 Very slick. I haven't played P5 nor seen the anime so far, but I find she has top-notch character design.
>>3587 I both started playing it (with RPCS3) and watching the anime. If you're interested and it's possible, I suggest playing the game instead: it's much more personal and rewarding; also the actual anime sequeces are better.
Great concept and execution. I'm already broke, though.
I can't even imagine the pain of someone whose waifu is Artoria Pendragon. The amount of things you can't afford to get must be insane.
While on the topic of unaffordable things, this figure looks great, but I think it'd be better if the sword holders were transparent too. Altair (Re:Creators) had one of the best character designs I've seen this decade, too bad the series fell off hard.
>>3598 Yeah, that show was garbage but I was pretty taken with Altair's design. That's a nice fig.
>>3597 It just means more options that's all. It's not a bad thing.

Saw this little gal; Pixie from the Shin Megami Tensei videogame series. I'm considering buying her, although I do wish the colour palette was less bright or more similar to her more muddled version (https://i.imgur.com/07ON7Kz.jpg - hair more brown than red, outfit more blue than purple). I do love the wings though. >>3586 While also on the topic of MegaTen: Very slick. I don't know much about the character though, but she has a nice design.
>>3605 I ended up pre-ordering Pixie and also this Jack Frost re-release. Since they're shipping in August and November respectively, I don't have to worry about paying right now.
>>3605 >>3606 I'm not normally into poseable figures anymore but these are great. I tried to get that Jack Frost one ages ago but couldn't so I'm glad they're re-releasing it.
This doesn't look as good as expected and I'm near broke. I'll think about it.
Face is off and boobs are small for her.
Charming.
Promising.
>>3644 I preffer the statue but, until widely available, this is an option.
>>3515 >only DX ver. can self-destruct >7000 yen difference Mother fuckers.
Not bad at all.
>>3657 Ended up preordering the DX. It's gonna be a blow, but I have a year to worry about it. Also, I guess I can always resell the extra parts if I don't like them in situ.
God damn this is nice.
>>3665 That base is spectacular.
>>3644 the latest pics aren't looking so well, so I'm glad I didn't get caught in preordering it. bought this one instead for 1/5 price, including shipping.
