Want a Marin so bad but definitely using my brother's name as the addressed if I get her succubus costume version XD he can take one for the team. ALSO i need a resurgence of Blue Exorcist so I can get more merch/figure releases TvT
I have also been having an issue trying to find a satisfying Power to preorder, They've just been subpar but I did like the new one you had in this video and was thinking about it. I was also keeping my eye out for an interesting resin power. Also I have a resin diorama demon slayer box that was way cheaper and actually came out amazing.
Prime one offers monthly payments, and I could be wrong but I think Sideshow has these as well and Sideshow allows you to pay early on your monthly payments.
Haha I preordered the Chun-li! Her price is def crazy but since it’s coming from Max Factory + 1/6th scale, I also say it’s worth if it’s like the prototype :)
I think with most freeing bunnies are honestly not worth the 30,000+ up charge and do go down afterwards justifiably so. Though in some cases if you know the character is very popular it’s a gamble if it’ll go up in price in the aftermarket like how their oc bunnies tend to such as x-10. Now with Jakuwa Nazumi oc bunny I love the bunny, not the probable price tag, but the aftermarket price scares me more.
Oh boy, Kanna bunny. I 100% agree that the outfit is unacceptable, but I love everything else they did. The gloves, bunny ears, and hair ties look so cute! Even the pose and hair sculpt is good. They were so close! I don't want to support FREEing for doing this (because they'll keep doing it), but I still kinda want her? Maybe I'll buy after-market then add my own little dress? Idk
Yeah, I personally saw how they dressed Kanna and immediately became disinterested 🥲 Even Tohru and Lucoa don’t have accurate proportions (their legs are way too skinny) nor much detail on the suits that sets them apart from other bunnies. Just seems like really sloppy and lazy work imo from FREEing.
thank you for your videos, recently i left my collecting-oriented chatgroups because of massive toxicity (idk those people were caring only about plastic, not people around them ._.) and i have literally nobody to discuss new releases, but there are some jaw-dropping bangers. you make it feel like a talk i wanted to have, sincere, from the pro-collector to the pro-collector xD this comment is sponsored by "being parasocial is fine"-gang
Honestly I gotta agree with you on FREEing bunnies. Their prices are skyrocketing and the quality of the figures themselves are about the same back then or even lazier. But I’m so hyped for the Mikus 😭💕
I totally preordered the Alucard Pop Up Parade and have no regrets! It looks so cool. Though, I did preorder the Crunchyroll exclusive version because I like him better with the hat and glasses. But, he really looks so sick. I had no idea there was also going to be an Alexander, too.
i am so excited for the remilia scarlet figure by APEX. never knew i needed that kind of aesthetic in my collection. my figures are mostly pink and cute but i’m gonna have to make an exception here 😍
I think Goodsmile and freeing are seeing that there has been less and less people purchasing figures given the economic state everywhere because they are re-releasing current popular figures with HIGH aftermarket demand such as the B-style zero two! It's a sure fire way to make a sale for them instead of continuing to re-lease only new B-styles and figures that may or may not be purchased en mass so Im hoping once things settle back down they'll lower prices once more :)
Damnit, I gotta pre-order that Satsuki bunny ver. I love that character. I pre-ordered that Chun-Li when I first saw it, the price is crazy, but man it's so beautiful.
Power was hard, I really wanted one with Meowy but I went Amakuni x Amiami. I do already have the power nendo which is her regular outfit and had meowy but I can see how that figure might not be for everyone. I feel like i'm stuck on denji though I really liked that one of him standing with pochina by sfire (i think) but it was like 22000yen for a figure just standing. so dissappointing. maybe it will drop in the after market.
I have a question for ANYONE TO ANSWER. I’m a new figure collector, There is this one figure from “pop up parade” I wanted and unfortunately I missed her pre-order. She releases march 2024. Once she releases, will I be able to get her? Like will she release in store or online ever again? I’m willing to pay any price as long as I get her. (I’m in Canada btw)
what are your thoughts on the price for blue archive miku? I feel like I haven't seen loads of people talk about it but I felt like it was very expensive considering that there are more extravagant miku figs for cheaper and without the base she kinda looks boring? like a figure that would cost like at most 1/2 of the price especially now seeing the tenitol (?) figs (ami ami has the blue archive fig up for roughly £150 and the site I usually get my figs from has her up for £250, I am from the UK)
I also recommend playing 13 Sentinels, especially if you into the Sci-fi genre. Their new Ques Q scales are pretty overpriced, but looking good. i will probably just keep my old Natsuno scale that I got for 9,000yen in Japan.
Hi i saw your video yesterday and now reccomed on my yt page now I’m a fan, if you don’t mind me asking? What do you do for work/ how do you afford your figures? ToT
I wanted the vampire miku nendo but WHY ARE THE WINDS NOT ATTACHED. Albedo or whatever her name is had attached wings to why not miku ? I am so beyong disappointed
The prices need to crash down! These companies are bleeding us dry!!! I don't know how they can justify those retail prices when there hasn't been significant changes (at least that I know of) in the way these figures are manufactured. Shipping has also somewhat returned to normal so that's not much of an excuse. While you could argue some figures are more difficult & intricate to make, that's just one design of how many they release in a given year. Props to companies that are consistent with decent pricing like Kotobukiya. I also don't pre-order much these days and just wait for it to release and go on sale a few weeks/months later. 😂
Most, but not all, of the figure price increase is just currency exchange rate and inflation. 23k "back in the day" is about 35k today. So the figure prices have gone up, but not as dramatic as one might first think by just seeing the numbers. So as far as FREEing goes, for example, 30k+ are actually great prices. 40k+ are tolerable. It is the one that is 50k+ that need something extra to convince me. The aftermarket drop off have less to do with the inherent price and more to do with oversaturation of the market, especially now that, for example, FREEing is releasing bare leg version almost every time soon after the tight version, where it used to be only a possibility and with many years in between. It's hard to hold value when there are good competition. A good resin is definitely the best for true grails if you are willing to spend the big bucks, unfortunately good resins are relatively rare, most resins are of garage kit quality that cost a ton but aren't all that great.
Did I actually say that? The project should still be going down, but I don't think it's possible to really get your hands on the figure anymore considering the crowdfunding period should be closed. I know a second recolor is also being produced, but that might also be for backers only
i wanted to get the magical mirai miku but the quality of her chain looked so awkward in the images it convinced me not to also i'm so sick of seeing so many rebuild figures...
the bunny miku being 44000 yen is obscene... (esp considering there are much more detailed large figures that costed less than her) sucks that the prices for new releases seems to just be getting higher and higher with each one. rly disappointing bcuz i genuinely wanted her :/
The Bellfine Asuka suit looks too wrinkly and it's throwing off the textures in the figure. Plus her hair feels stringy because of how many strands they decided to mold
Idgaf I preordered that Chun Li figure. So dope. I suppose I should watch the video before getting defensive...know what? NO! I've gone too far to turn back. Haters.
I'm glad Nikke is finally getting figures. It deserves it. It has the second best designs after Azur Lane, so it's only logical to make figures of them. Last Origin has "A" figure in the works to my knowledge. But I'm not sure if that's indictive of it having more, or if it's just because it's an Asanagi design and Asanagi gets literally all his art made into figures. Not that I mind, but just saying.
A new video from Daijoububu? Yes! This week is already better than the last. :)
wish more bunny figures got the madoka treatment, the flowy dressed would be so cute 😭
It's so classy and unique, I also think it gives a good sense of movement
Menma’s bunny figure was also rlly cute
I like the timestamps and overall organization of the review, nice video!
Want a Marin so bad but definitely using my brother's name as the addressed if I get her succubus costume version XD he can take one for the team.
ALSO i need a resurgence of Blue Exorcist so I can get more merch/figure releases TvT

The nendo Mikus are sooo cute. The snow Miku, and Vampire mikus are my FAAAAAVORITES!
Haha I preordered the Chun-li! Her price is def crazy but since it’s coming from Max Factory + 1/6th scale, I also say it’s worth if it’s like the prototype :)

That 1/4 Miku is so good. I also have the regular 1/4 Miku but this is a bunny one so that's definitely totally completely different.
Oh boy, Kanna bunny. I 100% agree that the outfit is unacceptable, but I love everything else they did. The gloves, bunny ears, and hair ties look so cute! Even the pose and hair sculpt is good.

also have no money left my workplace but did pre-order Miku Magical Mirai. she is so badass, orders me to empty my wallet

I think that more people should be complaining about the price of figures considering that most figures only cost around $20-$80 to make.
i am so excited for the remilia scarlet figure by APEX. never knew i needed that kind of aesthetic in my collection. my figures are mostly pink and cute but i’m gonna have to make an exception here 😍
Feels like all bunny girls scales are 1/4 now. It would be nice to see some 1/7 or 1/6 rabbits.

Where can I preorder the Apex-Toys 1/7th Remilia? I don't see it on amiami.
Damnit, I gotta pre-order that Satsuki bunny ver. I love that character.
I pre-ordered that Chun-Li when I first saw it, the price is crazy, but man it's so beautiful.
THE CROUCHING ASUKA AHHHHH
i managed to pick up a jibril bunny version for less than half aftermarket value thanks to buyee 😭😭
Keep up the awesome work and videos love the video
I love the Kotobukiya one Power. She is absolutely cute. Already paid for me~
Albedo looks fire for a POPUP Parade figure!
Power was hard, I really wanted one with Meowy but I went Amakuni x Amiami. I do already have the power nendo which is her regular outfit and had meowy but I can see how that figure might not be for everyone. I feel like i'm stuck on denji though I really liked that one of him standing with pochina by sfire (i think) but it was like 22000yen for a figure just standing. so dissappointing. maybe it will drop in the after market.
I'm definitely getting that Mako and Ryuko on a tank and the 1/4 Mako bunny!

Loved the video!
vampire miku is too cute! she’s expensive but i might pick her up 😵💫
I absolutely LOVE the 1/4 bunny miku she's so gorgeous and cute and her hair omfggg but 44,000 yen is just so much ughh:((
Scrappy Hailey is scrappy 😤 Enjoy your holiday!
Niceeee! Will you be preordering the mononoke kotobukiya rerelease?
what are your thoughts on the price for blue archive miku?

I have already submitted to my miku addiction… I already pre ordered the 1/4th😭
The space suit Rem is the best.
Thoughts on Prime1’s Hatsune Miku? You didn’t mention her.
I also recommend playing 13 Sentinels, especially if you into the Sci-fi genre.
Their new Ques Q scales are pretty overpriced, but looking good.
i will probably just keep my old Natsuno scale that I got for 9,000yen in Japan.
Hi i saw your video yesterday and now reccomed on my yt page now I’m a fan, if you don’t mind me asking? What do you do for work/ how do you afford your figures? ToT
i like the scrappier videos.
I wanted the vampire miku nendo but WHY ARE THE WINDS NOT ATTACHED. Albedo or whatever her name is had attached wings to why not miku ? I am so beyong disappointed
I need a truckin’ hoss Rem 🛻 😂

Love the next Radio Eva wave Asuka!!!
0:00:25 inner neko slip :)
I wanted that pop up parade miku soooooo bad but I’m moving and I have no money for her *cries*
Blue Exorcist and Persona 3? I want them...
22:34 according to Zucco the project was canceled, so the figure won't be coming out 😮💨
Did I actually say that? The project should still be going down, but I don't think it's possible to really get your hands on the figure anymore considering the crowdfunding period should be closed. I know a second recolor is also being produced, but that might also be for backers only
Me listening to this who has never spent less than 200usd on a figure… why can’t the figures I want be cheaper!
As someone who’s the older brother to a longtime black rock shooter fan, yeah there’s definitely a couple people willing to buy a pricy figure lol. 😂
I am so glad I didn't buy the 1/4 KonoSuba bunnies. I love their L Pop Up Parade bunny suits so much more!
I like so much news content
I would sacrifice everything for an Ib nendoroid (ESPECIALLY Garry)
i wanted to get the magical mirai miku but the quality of her chain looked so awkward in the images it convinced me not to
also i'm so sick of seeing so many rebuild figures...
the bunny miku being 44000 yen is obscene... (esp considering there are much more detailed large figures that costed less than her) sucks that the prices for new releases seems to just be getting higher and higher with each one. rly disappointing bcuz i genuinely wanted her :/
I’m so annoyed with goodsmile. It’s been like 2 years since we got an update on genshin nendos but now they’re focusing on Star rail figures
To many miku's eue
The Bellfine Asuka suit looks too wrinkly and it's throwing off the textures in the figure. Plus her hair feels stringy because of how many strands they decided to mold
THANK YOU that asuka looks soo bad
is buyee actually legit? iv seen so many people saying to stay away from it
Promo`SM 🌹
Idgaf I preordered that Chun Li figure. So dope. I suppose I should watch the video before getting defensive...know what? NO! I've gone too far to turn back. Haters.
prototype camera (webcam) = prototype sound edit = prototype figures
RWBY isn't anime
I'm glad Nikke is finally getting figures. It deserves it. It has the second best designs after Azur Lane, so it's only logical to make figures of them. Last Origin has "A" figure in the works to my knowledge. But I'm not sure if that's indictive of it having more, or if it's just because it's an Asanagi design and Asanagi gets literally all his art made into figures. Not that I mind, but just saying.
