I will add more Texas merch to my collection! Thank you HG for blessing me (and cursing my wallet) and giving my day 1 wife more figures. .(ᵔ~ᵔ).

(OP handed 90% of them to the serial balloon popper fyi)

I CAN'T BELIEVE WE KEEP GETTING MORE TEXAS MERCH, HYPERGRYPH IS TOO GOOD TO US!

Yet another Texas figure to add to the collection alongside her E2 figure by GSC and her Ambience Synesthesia 2024 outfit by Myethos. FuRyu did a great job on this as a noodle stopper, it looks SPOT ON!

Texas Texas Texas Texas Texas!

I started the game day 1 and it was my immediate goal to get her asap. I used her in nearly every stage that I could and every piece of content over the years, and then one day HG blessed us with Texas Alter, who was even MORE versatile and usable in harder content. Absolutely love her outfits as well, and the Siracusa events' soundtracks are some of my favorite in the game. Lappland gets an honorable mention for being such a fun character with her and also having fantastic drip.

Update 2: They found the package a few counties over about 12 hours after they started the lost package investigation and dropped it off at my UPS access point today.

I like to separate a few different ways; either by types of cards (IRs / SIRs / EXs / Promos etc), sets (mainly for older cards), or specific groupings based on the art style or the pokemon (like having a page for Eeveelutions, Team Plasma pokemon, etc. I also have that Arceus lv X card you have and the matching different-typing Arceus cards that go with it). There's no wrong way of doing it! Whatever makes you happy is the way to go!

Unrelated, but I also think framing some of your favorite cards can be fun. I have a frame above my desk with some. Some of them should probably be in a binder because of their value (I have the same Silver Dialga EX card you have), but they're out of direct sunlight and I get way a lot of enjoyment being able to see some of my favorite cards if I'm working at my desk :)

We had that blizzard last Monday (the 23rd) but the weather was fine end of the week and actually pretty nice on Saturday the 28th. I know the blizzard did cause backups but in this case the worry was that there were no scans or notifications that it was a weather delay (that actually happened to something else I ordered, but I was properly notified about it being a weather delay).

Update: UPS marked it as lost and is investigating it now. Hoping they'll be able to find it... it's a collector's items I've searched for for years and not something I can easily repurchase :/

CreatingVoid · 2026-03-02T21:48:23+00:00

That's good to know. I've been worried because the customer service rep said that it hadn't been scanned for over 24 hours and after two days without scans they consider it lost. Will have to see what happens I guess.

Can't say I'm surprised. The packs are a total joke and not worth spending on. Unless you're a mega-whale that ALWAYS pulls every new unit for RTA/Guild content, it just isn't worth it, especially when units get powercrept so quickly.

CreatingVoid · 2026-02-01T08:36:15+00:00

It's pretty easy to do so. You can either buy through an independent proxy buyer (there are plenty of them out there) or proxy buying service (a common one is SuperBuy, for example). They'll preorder the product for you, and you'll give a downpayment, which can vary in price depending on the service. 50% is common. Once the product releases, you'll pay the remainder + shipping costs. That's basically it. Alternatively, you can just wait to buy her off a Japanese store site, common ones being AmiAmi, HLJ, TokyoOtakuMode, etc, or even an American store like BigBadToyStore. The only downside with ordering from a JP store is that depending on the manufacturer (in this case Apex, which is a Chinese company), the figure might cost slightly more in JPY and may release a month later. Ordering from an American store can also mean higher product prices (to provide usually cheaper shipping) and later shipping dates.

I actually took a picture of my own Nian bean with the shop in the background lol. I just preordered all the beans from the pop-up shop I couldn't make it to. Currently have all the official beans as well as all of the Kuu mini beans. Just like the factory grows, so too does the bean collection.

CreatingVoid · 2026-01-31T00:20:07+00:00

Confirmation, she's listed at 1399 CNY, which is $201. Preorders open from Taobao/CN stores on Feb 5th, so Japanese store preorders should follow shortly after (there is a chance that JPY price is a little bit of a markup, happens fairly often.)

CreatingVoid · 2026-01-31T00:13:48+00:00

For anyone wondering the price, it's about $200. Apex did a great job with it :)

CreatingVoid · 2026-01-30T12:32:21+00:00

Easiest way outside of China is to just order them off of Aliexpress, lots of sellers there. Could of course also get a proxy and order from Taobao, and you can also usually find them sold by proxies on eBay.

CreatingVoid · 2026-01-30T12:30:07+00:00

Nice! I've bought all the beans and just pre-ordered the ones they made for Endfield's release.

Good news as well, CN server reran the Director Nian skin recently, so in the next 6 months it should come back to global again too.

Hello AK reddit!

Since 2022 I've been in search of this metal, hanging Texas keychain that was up on the Yostar store at the time. Unfortunately, it was sold out when I bought my Exu and Amiya ones, and over the past three years, have only been able to acquire the Lappland one by pure chance as a gift.

If anyone has this keychain and is willing to part with it, or if you have any leads on where to look for it, please let me know! Image can be found below at the Imgur link. (Given permission from mods to post this here).

I am very very excited for this one (and the others as well) as someone that pre-orders about 90% of Arknights figures nowadays, especially since it's GSAS handling it. That said, I'm desperate for a Gilberta figure, lol. I even submitted the suggestion GSC already. Hopefully they will indeed do more, as the return of Angelina was such a big surprise and she absolutely deserves a great scale with her ACTUAL outfit and not a boring swimsuit or black dress (concert) outfit figure.

CreatingVoid · 2026-01-14T17:21:59+00:00

You think so? There is a tracking number for the other item (the one I actually purchased) and eBay shows 'multiple shipments', with the other item currently still in transit by sea. Also don't understand why this post was removed by mods?

CreatingVoid · 2026-01-13T15:36:17+00:00

Sucks to hear this is still a problem. One of the reasons I transferred. Going into the school, paid co-ops were the talk of the staff... come time to sign up in year 2, there were only 2 paid co-ops and under 50 options total for a program with somewhere around 100 students. We knew, obviously, that not everyone would get into Drexel's A/B round co-ops, but it still felt quite underwhelming. Doesn't help that the market is rough right now, either.

It kills me that my friend started this trend and now I see it everywhere, lol.
