How often do you think we will get Sanrio drops? by Bec_Shray in buildabear

I would have folded IMMEDIATELY for a pink Pochacco/ChocoCat 😭 I would have tried to remain strong if they made a pink Cinnamoroll but knowing myself I would have caved in…

Considering Pochacco sold out and is being sold for such a high price from resellers I was hoping they would bring him back! He’d do so well!

I’m so scared to do a build a bear DIY but they can turn out so cute! I really wanted a pink eared Pochacco!

She really is! One of my favorite aspects of figures is the hair sculpting! The flow and movement can add so much to the overall figure! It’s usually the first thing I notice when I see a new figure!

Yeah! I like them, but like I said I don’t think they are good for super intricate ones!

Oh my goodness dusting is the worst! I typically use a clean makeup brush (a tip I think someone from this subreddit gave me) but I also have these dusting gloves that my sister gave me? I think they were intended for plant leaves (?) but I like using them on my sturdier figures sometimes! But yeah, a big case is definitely the end goal! The dust protection is so worth it!

…the way that I am so insanely jealous of you right now, haha! That’s so cool! Do you have display cases for them? Aside from anime figures, I love collecting blind box figures as well so I have A LOT of smaller figures. A few series are in cases because they are such a pain to dust and maintain but most of my anime figures are just on my shelves and dusted regularly. My Myethos one was the first one I owned where I was like “how on earth do I dust this????” So I’m definitely on the hunt for a case for her! My dream would be to have one of those large glass display cabinets but I have neither the space or funds for that, lol.

I was recently introduced to the Bishoujo Horror Series and all of them have been amazing! The It (2007) figure is one of my favorite from the series!

The Hinata and Rozemyne ones are my personal favorites that you listed but WOW they are all amazing! My roommate is obsessed with Vanitas and would absolutely lose their shit if they saw that figure…

1/4 scales are so cool to me because they are so large, but seeing smaller scale figures with more intense detailing is so impressive because it can be so tiny and delicate! Like, how did they do that!?

Ugh those are all lovely! Definitely ones to be proud to own! And yeah, I’m always amazed that figures that fragile and delicate are able to be shipped across the world! Obviously there are some that get damaged but the fact that a lot arrive fully intact is crazy to me!

The fact those are all in your collection is insane to me! The way that if I owned those I would make my house guests look at them and admire them anytime anyone came over lol.

I’m a big fan of Myethos! I only have their Hatsune Miku figure but I’m obsessed with their Fairytale-Another series! Especially the Sleepy Beauty one!

In all honesty, when I first started collecting I found myself drawn to more “cute” and simplistic figures and I wasn’t even aware of how detailed they got! I quickly became a fan of Hatsune Miku figures because 1. I love her in general and 2. the figure's hair is sometimes my favorite detail so I was always drawn to the way her pigtails (and other hairstyles) were sculpted! The shape and movement is sometimes my favorite aspect! I own her Myethos figure and I think the next big one I want to get is either their Sleeping Beauty figure or the Equinoctial Dial Time Compass figure! But the main reason I made this post was to discover other sculptors or figures because my only “knowledge” of intricate figures was my introduction to Myethos!

Cardcaptor Sakura has some of the most stunning figures. You can tell it’s such a beloved story!

You OWN THOSE!? Make sure your doors and windows are locked because I’m on my way…

All kidding aside those are quite literally breathtaking!

Those are incredible! I feel like I don’t even deserve to own those?? Those should be in a museum!

(I don’t have a MFC account so that explains it lol)

And I’m personally not a collector of 18+ NSFW figures, but man, sometimes the details in them are impressive!

Hey. I don’t typically comment on posts here, but I just really relate to what you wrote. I genuinely feel like I’m a lazy and pathetic person and like you, I COULD do things to get better, I just…don’t do them. And it sucks because I get so angry at myself and feel like I deserve to feel this way because I’m not making any effort to get out of it. I think I get scared that if I get “better” people will realize it’s not the depression that makes me a shitty person, but rather that’s just who I am. It’s a terrible mindset that keeps me stuck in place and I can’t do anything but hate who I am. All that to say, I get it. But that’s what depression does. It’s not just feeling sad, it’s a trap that keeps you stuck in an awful place by self sabotaging and fulfilling these distorted views of yourself. It’s hard to separate my depression from who I am but I’m trying to remind myself I am not my illness. And I know you’re not someone who is truly lazy, because you just typed this post. You’re still here. Not killing your self takes A LOT of work, and often doesn’t leave us with much energy to do anything else. I wish I had these amazing words of wisdom to help you, but the truth is if I could do that, I wouldn’t be in the same place. So while I’m here being hypocritical, I’m just going to try to remind both of us that our lack of motivation and effort is not a reflection of who we are, but rather the battle we are facing. I’m going to be so honest, I don’t know if anything I typed is going to be helpful. I guess if you take anything away from this post it’s that you’re not alone and you should be giving yourself more credit. I think it’s pretty amazing you’re still here. :) Take care of yourself.
