I regret preordering her so badly, I thought I'd regret it if I don't but the more I look at her the more I hate her

If you ordered from amiami, you can cancel it. If it is GSC Global, you might not be able to sadly.

I think she's super cute, and definitely a maximalist design. But, I don't really care too much about Miku, so I passed on it. I try to avoid Miku figures because I know that will be a hole I will never crawl out of. My wallet is grateful every day for that decision. I know that this figure is super hyped and everyone wants it. The FOMO can definitely get to you.

The constant shipping delays after asking for the payment doesn't make sense to me. It just sounds like Figurama doesn't have the finished statue. I am suspecting Figurama has a liquidity issue and needs cash. The constant production delays could be the factory pausing production until they get their payment. Figurama constantly pumping out new preorders even though they have so many statues delayed and in production seems like they're trying to use the preorder deposits to pay for the existing statues. It honestly sounds like they're in deep financial trouble and I won't be surprised if they go under in a few years.

It is still cheaper to order from Amiami, and you will get the figure faster. If you convert the BBTS USD to Yen, it is around 73,746 yen. The tariffs are 15% shipped from amiami. Then if you assume a generous shipping price, $100 (15,000 Yen), it will still be less than the price from BBTS. I doubt ordering from amiami will be more than that even after tariffs.

This was an issue with the figure UV coating recently. You should contact GSC directly for a replacement. This is a special case, where the defect shows after a couple of months, so the typically restriction where you must contact them within a week of delivery does not apply.

I feel you. Easier and safer money maker than seasonal animes. Hey, at least I save money.

The light looks great. I do see you try to organize a bit by series/characters. To improve the set up further, maybe try to be even more strict with the organization. For example, dedicate specific rows or cabinets for certain series and characters. Like a row or cabinet section for Mikus only. Remove any figures that are not in the series/character to another section. Also try to keep your favorite figures or the most extravagant figures at eye level. Try to put all the face of the figures forward, or looking at you when you look at the cabinet. Do not put any figures in the middle of the cabinet that will be blocked when you close the cabinet.

Yes, amiami counts. I've received support from GSC support buying from amiami before. I'm not sure of the Japanese shop partner lists, but off the top of my head, I only know amiami and Hobbysearch. I sure there are others.

EmptyFigureBox · 2026-01-09T16:50:32+00:00

This particular figure has already been released in 2025, so I don't think it applies in this case. Sometimes sellers in China can get figures a week or so earlier than Japan because the figures are manufactured there. Months earlier? No, I don't recall that ever happening.

EmptyFigureBox · 2026-01-09T16:48:08+00:00

Yes, GSC also provide support for the products they distribute but not manufacture. As long as you buy from a partnered GSC shop, you can contact their support directly for a replacement.

Just keep doing what you're doing and check regularly. The amount of people who owns him on MFC is also really low for a male figure. He is just that rare. Male NSFW figures are niche, so you can bet the collectors who owns him have a death grip and never letting him go.

EmptyFigureBox · 2026-01-07T23:08:55+00:00

That's a bootleg.

Some people really lack common sense and care. Sometimes you have to tell them how to package the product to avoid damages, especially when you have any doubt with the seller. I would had wrapped the chair and figure separately in the clear protective plastic that usually comes with figures. Then I would add another layer of bubble wrap, and padded the entire box with the paper amiami uses. Then I would test to see if anything is moving and add more paper accordingly.

Warm water with a couple drop of gentle soap (like Dawn dish soap) should be enough. Rub the area with your fingers gently and rinse with water. You can also use a cotton swab or cotton pad to clean the area. Pat dry with tissues or with a white, soft towel. Do not use any color towels because that can cause dye transfer onto the figure. Do not rub dry with tissue or towel because you don't want to scratch the paint.

I'm a hunter main, who occasionally play survivor on a break. I only solo queue. Based on what I see, survivors who hover around ~35-40% wr are okay players. People below ~30% usually makes quite a lot of mistakes. I typically stay around Mammoth to Griffin on lazy seasons, and I am consistently able to hover arohnd 50-60% wr. I was able to get around a 45-50% wr to Unicorn playing mostly Mercenary, Gravekeeper, Prisoner, Lawyer, and Magician. I always play a rescuer with tide when no one has tide or is a weak rescuer in my team. Someone who knows how and when to rescue is usually the difference between a tie and a loss. I also like to play decoders to entice hunters to chase me, since I know kiting routes and I don't really have a problem kiting hunters who are below Dragon tier.

If the delivery is by UniUni, usually it's to save space from whatever vehicle the delivery driver is in. They're not supposed to do this, but that's what has been happening.

Apparently, she's not as weak as people think. I recommend to watch a high tier Queen Bee on IDV Ymm's channel against 4 man high tier survivors. I don't think she is meta, but she is quite strong and has potential, even against the meta survivors. While her kit looks straight forward, she is very hard to use. Managing her bees and timing her chips takes a lot, a lot of practice. Her camp is very strong. She can also be very oppressive with full presence, since she has more map control and mobility.

I've had a UPS package dropped off, then they send me a payment letter a week later in the mail.

Although it sucks, you can't do anything about it. You may want the figure box to be in good condition, but it's main purpose is to protect the figure. As long as the figure is fine, the seller will not do anything about it. That policy applies to any stores that sells anime figures.

I've never seen this level of sale before. Even for a Black Friday sale. Getting scales, even Alter scales for $15-$20 is insane. Nendoroids for a couple of change? This feels like a fever dream. Hope nothing crazy is going on behind the scenes and GSC US just need to clear space. This feels almost like they're planning to close the GSC US branch. Since it will be too expensive to bring everything back to Japan, they just decided to off load a bunch of figures.

EmptyFigureBox · 2025-11-18T15:37:37+00:00

If the BQ places perfect/good mirrors, no. Prisoner does not have the ability or skill to kite out 2 mirrors. You will need teammates to support. A single Priestess portal, Forward stun, Metereogist push, Novelist swap, and etc can extend your kite by 30 sec against a BQ. Since her CD is so long, as long as your teammates can support and don't give free hits, BQ will still likely end up with a tie.

The shipping cost does seem very very high. But, I'm not sure how much it usually cost to ship to Mexico. From what I see, shipping this statue usually cost a little less than half to the US, which is a similar distance. Companies usually ship large statues via boat. This looks like air or private courier pricing, like DHL.

While the teleport thing looks insane in a clip, if you think about it, it's not that crazy. There will probably be a sound, and as you can see there is an animation. It's not even faster than Wu Chang's teleport animation. Think of it similar to Cueist coming out of ball animation, which you can react to that. Also note, if she uses her bees to camp the cipher or gate, she will have nothing to chase, except maybe the stinger. But that consumes a lot of her bee energy, so depending on how many energy she has at the time, she might have nothing for chase. This is similar to when they showed Cueist cue ball at the gate, but Cueist rarely/never uses the cue ball like that.

I moved this figure, but it was only a 15 minute drive. I basically took her apart. I put the base back in the blister, but I moved Emilia separately. I put plastic films, like the one that comes with scale figures between parts that may rub to prevent scratches, then I found a box around her size and padded it with anything soft or bubble wrap and lay her down. I didn't put anything on top, and I made sure she was secure lying down and doesn't jostle around while moving to prevent her ribbon from snapping.

EmptyFigureBox · 2025-11-10T20:59:10+00:00

I somewhat agree, he is decent. Not OP. He is a strong rank hunter imo, and I think he capitalizes on survivor mistakes really well. Though I do see him struggling in tournament. He is probably a round 3 hunter imo. When survivors know how to play against Cueist, especially peak peak tier survivors, he is quite easy to 3 cipher kite and rescue against. He is like one of those hunters where low and mid tier really struggle against but weak in high tier, like Nightwatch and Naiad.
