I love prize figures and I almost never see collectors talk about them so it was refreshing to hear your opinion. I feel like prize figures are better than some of the scales available for characters. Price does not always guarantee quality, and that can be such a hard lesson to learn. Plus they add some much-needed variety to my collection.
I'm with you with prize and bust figures! I like smaller sized figures in general (Pop Up Parade size is perfect for me). Just easy to display, move around and take pictures with without feeling too insecure of breaking them
Yessss bust appreciation makes me so happy 🩷😭🩷 You said it so well, the fear of breaking something when moving it around is a huge factor as to why i love smaller pieces and busts are amazing - easy to dust and easy to display, the best combination 😂🩷
I'm just getting into this hobby, and 90% of the time what makes me resist pulling the trigger on a figure is a jank looking face, so your opinion regarding bust statues makes a lot of sense to me. Thanks for the video.
I adore nendos (that's how I got into figure collecting) but you are 100% right that they can be insanely stressful. You are one of the first content creators I've seen bring up this issue without dunking on nendos or coming across like you are "above" collecting them. Subscribed! :)

@@NadyaCollectibles Ayumi Otosaka from Charlotte was my first! I found her second hand and she was so adorable I had to have more nendos! Then I ran into prize figures and later scale figures. 🤗
Glad to hear you feel the same way ❤ There’s so many amazing prize figures out there that add so much to collection, and yeah the prices have been insane lately for scales - it’s so sad, I’m hoping companies start bringing the prices back down soon because it’s really just crazy 🥲💔
I’m not really involved in the figure-collecting scene but I’m surprised to hear bust figures aren’t super popular! Maybe because a lot of manufacturers struggle making face sculpts that are worth the spotlight in larger scales lol. I really appreciate how they don’t usually come with bulky or obstructing bases, unlike a lot of full-body scales What really gets to me with nendos is the struggle of deciding on the poses and faceplates. And managing and storing all those tiny parts afterwards 😭 I totally get the appeal of collecting your favorite characters in ridiculously cute teeny caricatured forms though. Lovely video as usual, your excitement and passion for this hobby is (dangerously) contagious 🌸🌸
I'm with you! My collection started on Prize figures it will end on Prize figures. There are so many amazing ones coming out recently with pretty good quality, especially the Tentoil line. Also, there are so many cool Ichiban Kuji figures, which I find have higher quality than standard prizes like Bandai figures, and also carry the Masterlise line, which basically scales up the figures to a 1/7 or 1/8 scale. Basically prize figures are definetly overlooked by collectors when there are so many amazing ones out there. Will always keep mine in my collection :) Also, I never really understood why collectors got busts before, but after seeing yours, I can imagine displaying the demon slayer/hisoka ones as pieces in a living room or main living space where they can show off your personality/hobbies without disturbing the natural flow of the space and aesthetic.
Last thing lol. Been loving these kind of sit back and chat about the collection videos. They're so comforting/relaxing and really allow me to appreciate figures that arent apart of my personal collection :)
prize figures are also great because there’s so many in non-canon outfits and unique scenarios. where else are you gonna get figures of every demon slayer character eating onigiri or Homura sitting on a macaron or Rem as a nutcracker or Anya playing tennis or the version of Gon with his mile long hair or the Haikyuu boys hanging out in the trash
I agree with you 100 on the bare legs. The DxD ones and some of the TLR bare legs are better than the fishnet ver. IMO. For me it all depends on the pose. Standard standing poses tend to look better with fishnets, but any pose where the legs are more dynamic or their rears are a focal point, the barelegs sometimes look better. You're not alone.
Bare leg bunny's can be great! I have a bare leg bunny Erza Scarlet and I order that version over the fishnet one, cuz somehow it fit her more in my mind :D
Completely 100% agree!! 🥲🩷 Honestly with the QC issues a lot of companies have been having lately, there are even some prize figures that I’d even say have turned out better than some scale figures \(._. )/
My unpopular opinion is that q poskets and *certain* funko pops can be cute like, Sanrio funkos are always pretty adorable since they can utilize the big black eyes and strange proportions better than a human design can
YESSS i completely agree with you ❤ There’s actually been a couple q poskets I’ve been keeping an eye on, like some of them are adorable - also my sister has a huge funko pop collection and honestly they’re awesome to look at, i really really want the Sanrio ones for my desk 😭💕
I ordered my first noodle stopper figure not that long ago! It's the Illumi one. He's one of my fav HxH characters and he has like... no figures, so how could I pass it up lol? Also, the new HxH Pop Up Parades all look so cool! If I had more money and less impulse control, I totally would have gotten all of them. 😁
That was a big issue i had with the Saitama nendroid 🥲💔 i had such a hard time getting his cape to stay on as the pegs were too loose for the notches, i was so upset about it - very important point you brought up so thank you for sharing ❤

I completely agree with your take on nendoroids, i only own the komi one. Since it was my first I wasn't really used to setting them up right, so I accidentally broke one of her cat ears. Been too scared to buy another nendo ever since...
I LOVEE prize figures they’re a way for me to be able to collect figures too and imma be honest for the price u can find some really good quality ones like my sega power figure i also love nendoroids bc theres so many variety and they’re just so cute
I adore prize figures, and personally I think QPoskets are cute! I’ve heard that a lot of people think they’re scary..) (And that bunny is 100% my fave as well!!!)

@@NadyaCollectibles Yes!! I have one of the Cardcaptor Sakura ones and the Ice Cream Naomi Watanabe! (She might be my favorite) Sakura was actually my first ever legit figure! And of course all of my other figures are prize figs and nonscales 😅 I’m kinda broke so they’re all I can get, but I love them so much
Prize figure are great to start with, but once you have a relatively large collection, the issue of space comes up. I am now more space constrained than I am money constrained. I might have to punt some figures soon and it would likely be prizes that I have scales of the same characters first. As such, it doesn't make sense for me to buy any prize figure unless there is no (comparable) scale of the character. I do also collect media items such as blu ray, manga and LN, which contributes to reaching the "breaking point" sooner, but it will happen eventually if you keep collecting more and more figures. I don't have a lot of nendroid, mostly because my taste generally doesn't suit the SD style. I mostly prefer cool/powerful and/or sexy characters and that does not translate. The few I do have are of the few canontically cute characters that I like. In terms of bareleg vs fishnet, I do agree that it depends on the character/figure. My general preference is fishnet, but there are ones where I strongly prefer bareleg. For example, the GW Jibril, she just feels like she should be bareleg and I want to see the mark on her leg clearly. AFAIK, most people share this opinion on this particular figure. By potential happenstance, currently all my barelegs are non-standing. It is possible that for me, standing bunny will always look better in fishnets. Note: to be fair, space constrained is also due to money constrain--could get a bigger house. But I actually did the math and... the most expensive part of my collection is already the real estate so getting more house for prize figure to save money over scale would not be worth it. This will vary based on your local real estate price.
When it comes to the whole thing with bunny girls, I agree with it, but I would also add that why not add a 3rd variant like instead of fish nets why not just leggings like some price figures, like for me fish nets are fine but not many scale bunny girl figures have regular leggings.

Unpopular opinion... i like pop up paredes and figmas....!
