Been looking for certain characters from Gundam Seed and Seed destiny along with Ikki tousen, Tenjo Tenge, Tenchi Muyo, Slayers, etc without breaking the bank lol

I thought I'd share pics of this so that folks may discover that it exists.
A good friend of mine in Germany ordered this and it arrived yesterday.
I've sent him an email asking for more info and I can post it here for the curious.
I do know, IT IS HUGE!

Love Guts and all the character designs from Berserk except one and it's that armor. Just never liked it. It's too...complicated...maybe and the helmet is just silly IMO. The Skull Knight's armor is just so intimidating, Guts is too cool to have such lame armor by comparison.

[Gorgon]

Personally, I've always liked the Berserker Armour, as it reminds me of two childhood faves;
- The Destroyer, from Thor comics (not the lame crap they put in the film), and
- The Fire Giant Dreadnought, from Dungeons and Dragons

I have the same figure coming (in a 7 in. size, heh) from TOM.
It won't have the cool base but it does include the Skull Helm as a swap-out.

Yes that's how Guts should look ( well except for the smile, did Guts ever smile?)

[Gorgon]

^^ I think it's more of an evil grin than a smile...
I believe a caption along the lines of;
"Hello, I'm about to butcher you like a strung up hog" would be in order.

Yeah, I do like his armour set though.

edit: apparently this fig has 3 swap-out heads (different expressions).

My #1 dream figure.
There’s no way in hell that I am ever shelling out $1000+ for one figure though, no matter how big, high quality, detailed, whatever, it is.



Petition to get more figures from Devilman Crybaby released!!

[Gorgon]

^^ Gorgeous fig ! (though not overwhelmed by the facial expression).
I'd be happy enough if I could afford the dang LE for DM:CB let alone the fig though!

Thank you!! I got several of my figures here and BookOff when I lived in Japan. I miss being there and searching for figures. Didnt realize they ship outside Japan

To anyone who still hasn't seen Cowboy Bebop, don't read the description for Faye's figure. It's got a kinda major spoiler in there (at least I consider it one).

You can even buy them as a set, which has the glass with the logo and Faye has sunglasses and Spike a cigarette

The other day I was working with a coworker who is super into all comics universes. We started talking about the MCU and I recalled seeing a figure on TOM ages ago of a certain character that is from the Marvel Comic Universe, but has not appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The way my coworker described her made me absolutely fall in love with the Squirrel Girl Marvel x Bishoujo Statue. I already loved her design since I freaking love squirrels (they’re my second favorite animal after cats), and the fact that she’s basically a female/squirrel version of Spiderman but better because she can actually communicate with and gather an army of squirrels (and she has a tail!!) sold me. I officially need to buy this figure. It’s next on my figure list!

I wish I knew more about finding older figures. I've been curious if this Lum is great enough to justify hunting for.

You can put in an alert at Mandrake for it
(Seems pretty generic though)

Surprisingly, I don't much like bunny girls. It's too bad these cuties are over $250 each.
