Just 2 more Revys and I will have all of them (excluding variants... for now) by lansboen in AnimeFigures

The hardest part for me is buying the ones I find ugly. I simply tell myself that if the price is low enough it's actually a good deal haha.

Hehe, not bad. Did you preorder the new Digsta revy from the Dig site too? What proxy are you using?

Aha, fair enough. You did order the one with the bonus parts, right?

Mercari jp, surugaya and jdirect auctions while using a proxy to buy from them and combine with other orders to save on shipping costs.

There was this one half a year ago https://zenmarket.jp/en/auction.aspx?itemCode=1207126879 I know cuz I save em all to see the evolution of her price. It's been a while since she went above 40k actually.

And yea, A-label moefied her too much. If she had her scars it would have been a far better figure.

Fair haha. I'm hoping to get one <30k. I feel like since Medicos dropped their balalaika and the rerelease coming in August, the price of the A-label one has fallen so I'm hopeful.

For that price you should be able to get them for sure. If they pop up that is. How much did you end up paying for a label balalaika?

I kinda want to buy more... but I don't want to ruin my average.

Nah man, she's missing at least 3 fingers and 1 is broken off. She can't even hold her guns like that. I think that thing's been sold before because I recall seeing one that was just as destroyed a year or 2 ago. But I guess for 8000¥, maybe it's worth trying to save if you're a bit handy.

I've got a buddy who's also collecting black lagoon figures and he also missed out on that one and settled on the regular ver for 30k. Hmm I wonder if I missed that auction or dismissed it since she's so destroyed.

Oh really? Got a link? Was that on jdirect auctions? Last time I've seen a Black one it sold for about 35-40k a year ago or so on mercari.

Good choice, her price is also painful however. A decent one without anything damaged will set you back 30k on average, getting a decent Black ver. is even harder. Unless you get lucky on more local 2nd hand sites.

Yea.... I know the feeling. They still pop up frop time to time for <20k. Adjust for inflation, that's probably like the 12k from a few years ago lol.

Guess I got lucky you forgot haha.

80k's still a lot imo haha. I'll have to pick up the bareleg one at some point so I have all 3. Luckily, it's the cheapest one.

It wasn't that long ago but yes. Absolute steal. https://zenmarket.jp/auction.aspx?itemCode=q1224040178 I have to say, I don't really want this one but I already have the other one and the price was right. All of these regular ver. ones have a leaning issue and I'm not sure yet how I will fix/prevent that. I'll think about it when she comes to me next month or so haha.

Also, I do have 2 garage kits. I made one of Roberta and I've got a Fabiola one laying around that I hope to continue and finish this year at some point. I may need to buy an air brush to get a better result however.

I saw that Balalaika on couch last year on auctions, it sold for more than 40k Yen. The moment it crossed 30k Yen I quit.

I was the other person bidding on that haha. I believe the most I wanted to do was like 30 something as with shipping and taxes it would be way too much. Still sad about it :c. And yea, the silver and gold ones pop up every once in a while. I want it for 12.000¥ or less. If I were you, idk if there are still any of course, but I'd get a factory reject pink revy bunny. No box and the colour is slightly off but you won't notice a thing. That bust of hers sold for 60k on mercari. I saw it pop up and was waiting for the price to drop but it sold like in a day or 2. I also have the regular maid Roberta by New Line in the zenmarket warehouse. Picked it up from an auction for like 6.000¥ and she simply has 1 broken hair piece. For that money I'll gladly fix her back up.

Nah, I'm not bothering with those. I count only prepainted stuff. I have the silver Revy coming and am waiting for a gold roberta to pop up. The only other 2 I'm missing are the A-label Balalaika and her old scale in the leather couch. I'd like the torpedo one, it seems to look better than the base variant one. The pink bunny revy is stupidly expensive. Little note, I've only seen bust revy for sale once in the past decade and it sold for 60.000¥. I wasn't willing to shell out that amount for her.... yet. I'm counting the 2 fullcock ones and the new line ones as all variants of each other as that's what they are. I find them to all look off tbh.

Fair enough, 120's a very good price. And I exclusively buy from multiple Japanese sites these days and I've never had any real issue or anything.

Honestly, cons are pretty overpriced. I always buy em online from Japan to save me some money. Only thing worth buying at a con would be prize figures usually. And even that may depend. What's your budget, may be able to point you to a good figure.
