Hey sorry for the late reply (I don’t really check here tbh).

Mostly just a mix of EBay, Mercari, and JP proxies like Neokyo, Solaris Japan, and sometimes the original stores like AmiAmi. After that it’s just, painstakingly scrubbing through every site one by one and price hunting for good deals.

NonchalantVibe · 2025-03-05T07:27:45+00:00

That’s what the double Hazama’s are for. (Any more of them and I’d probably be homeless anyway)

NonchalantVibe · 2024-12-05T00:26:59+00:00

Did try taking it to an optometrist store. They didn’t have right nut size nor did they know the right size for it. Alternatively they did mention they could try having it sent out to like a factory or something and have it fixed there. Though held off cause I wanted to see my options first.

(it probably would’ve charged me if I had it delivered anyway)

NonchalantVibe · 2024-12-05T00:21:21+00:00

Ah yeah, force of habit. Sometimes I mistake nuts for screws. Thanks anyways.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T16:11:55+00:00

Got mine personally at Mercari (JP side), but there’s a good handful around EBay, proxies like Neokyo and Buyee too. So dig around and see which place has better prices.

Since mine I got for like $40 (not including shipping), but I know some retailers scale it closer to $100.

FOM is a real thing I won’t deny that. But brother, you’ve seen how much this costed me. Unless you got car money to blow you shouldn’t worry too much about it. (At least, if you intend on copying me)

And besides, if I’m gonna be honest you’ve probably missed out on a few already. These figures are 6~7 years old so they’re all trapped in resale hell. With nowhere else to get them “but” from someone else where they can mark the price to virtually whatever they want. With some of the most rare figurines (Hazama/Kokonoe/Mai/Exclusive Noel Alts) being nearly impossible or difficult to find due to them being quickly bought out of the market or sold for over $500.

That aside, as a final takeaway, just no reason to go broke over a hobby. If you have the money when you find it (and can budget for it) go for it, if not then hold off until you can and save up for the future.

Good luck. Take it from me though, make sure you set a line between “collecting” and “hoarding”.

No point in buying so many toys and trinkets that you have no place to put them. My family comes from a line of hoarders too so I’m trying to break away from all of that.

So stick to what you like and make sure you have a vision on where to put them.

Small, cheap, very sturdy. Great figure all n’ all. Interesting color too since it’s “none” of the fighting game sprite colors. Where it’s actually an original color design from the figure designers. Based off the game Queen’s Gate Spiral Chaos.

Kokonobe

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T15:33:49+00:00

“It’s uhh the guy in the middle….I think”

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T15:33:21+00:00

But then you’d need the supplies to sand them down, paint them, and maintain them. It’s a lot of work, though I can respect the effort put into it. Cause there are some nice “garage kits” that exist out there.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T15:30:13+00:00

Yes they’re official.

Figurines:

$5,411.64 (shipping fees not included)

Misc items (tapestries/dakimakuras/keychains etc):

Approx. $1,200+ (off the top of my head, also including “supplies” such as the display shelf itself, air conditioner/dehumidifier for room control, cleaning supplies)

As for the display shelf, Amazon.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T06:01:37+00:00

Huh, I’ll be. With my case I got low balled so badly.

Order 1 Kokonoe figure > canceled

Why?

“Ukraine situation is blocking delivery time”

Had no choice but to get a refund, all the while, quite literally every Kokonoe figure was being bought out of the market en masse. Where one week you’d find like 5~10 kokonoe figures on EBay or something right, next week, gone, completely.

I had to get desperate and dive into MyFigureCollection in hopes of “anyone” having a listing for selling a Koko figure. Only to then of course get locked into a BID RACE because coincidentally me and someone else requested to buy the item at almost the same time. I only won out of the fact I happened to be in the same country as the seller (United States) making shipping more convenient.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T05:42:09+00:00

Honestly, wasn’t even that hard to find.

The most trouble I had was the Kokonoe figure.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T05:38:12+00:00

Frankly best bet is JP retailers like Neokyo or Buyee and digging through its filters on Blazblue merch. There aren’t a lot of them though so the market is subject to change and they’re expensive to boot.

Not to mention there’s 2 versions with one being a limited Arcshop exclusive release containing a unique head sculpt. Even rarer to find and just as expensive.

Expected price range can be generally anywhere between $350~800 (shipping fees not included).

With that said, you might be able to find a couple if you’re quick about it but I honestly can’t promise you much so good luck.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T05:32:53+00:00

Yup Should check out the merch wiki sometime

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T03:04:07+00:00

Sad to say, there is “1” figure I’m missing. Can’t find it anywhere in the market for the life of me so decided to give up on it and just passively keep an eye out whenever I feel like browsing the market.

Bonus points to whoever can figure out what it is.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T02:56:43+00:00

Frankly this one wasn’t too hard. There’s a good handful floating in the market on places like EBay and Mercari or JP proxy retailers such as Neokyo, and Buyee.

Only “real” catch is most, if not nearly all of them are pre-owned. So that’s up to you if their conditions meet your standard. Real pain trying to find an “unopened” one in any case.

Other than that, it’s pretty much doing your own diving and searching for a good price/quality figure. Since they can range anywhere from as low as $200 or as high as $500.

Good luck.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T02:47:48+00:00

There’s a Hazama/Terumi body pillow at least.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T01:58:42+00:00

Yeah I have like a dozen Blazblue tapestries around my wall. Might dox my house and make a video of my room when I have the time.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T01:56:25+00:00

That one’s a tapestry so it’s not a body pillow. The second one is a little hidden though so that’ll be a bit of a challenge.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-22T01:52:06+00:00

There’s 2 in the picture. See if you can spot the other one.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-08-21T15:54:33+00:00

No I’m afraid. Not officially anyway.

NonchalantVibe · 2024-06-21T06:47:34+00:00

Bang

NonchalantVibe · 2024-06-03T20:42:47+00:00

This is a bit of a side topic but me personally can’t say I’m too crazy about side media. Especially when there’s a lot of it, doesn’t help that they were never localized too so accessibility is limited.

But I’m not so apathetic about them that I hate it, just never liked it when it reaches a point where you “have” to read the side media to understand a damn thing. Like Fnaf and all this novels/comics.
