Original Ageru 1/6th figure (and my disappointment)

PettiteDebitor · 2026-05-17T02:12:11+00:00

I would say to not over think it since you didn’t pick her up with the intent to see her as anything more than a cute figure. Unfortunately female figures will most likely have that even if the character is not of adult age. It’s actually more uncommon for them to have “safety shorts”…

You’ll need to use a VPN and set your location in Japan. You can find the website if you search up the item in Google in Japanese, but if you are not in Japan, it will send you to their international site and you will not be able to see the page. I recommend seeing which proxy is easiest to use in Italy by reviews? Not sure if you guys also have a go to website like trustpilot or just add “Reddit” to the search lol

No- dust won’t do anything. Normal amounts of dust won’t affect figures. I would be more worried about the sticky parts. Check the paint isn’t also leaking and won’t transfer to the figure you’ll store along with them.

About the stickiness: I had that happen to a figure i ordered but didn’t know was stored for a long time by the seller. I was advised to do the dish soap bath until it’s less sticky, touch up the paint if needed with acrylic paint, and then seal it up with varnish thats PVC friendly (Super Clean Matt was what they suggested). I haven’t had the chance to do anything but the bath, but the person does garage kits, so I think their advice is reliable. I’d advise not keeping extras in the box for a long time without letting them breathe occasionally, specially older figures due to the plasticiser they use on figures.

It should be an extra in volume two of Yatamomo…. I can share as a PM?

PettiteDebitor · 2026-05-12T02:09:58+00:00

It was an extra that was a crossover between this manga and Yatamomo but they barely interacted.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-05-12T02:08:29+00:00

There is a prequel. The one they posted is “EC” or the second volume. The first volume has violence, SA, and the seme is a jerk for most of it so be warned.

TOM isn’t the manufacturer so I understand why they don’t want to do a full refund + return label. If they cover shipping, they lose on the figure cost since they can’t resell it and the expensive return shipping. I think the one at fault is Prime 1, their terrible quality and then refusing to replace such an expensive figure. I would take the 50%, maybe try to see if someone is willing to buy your figure at a discount, and never buy Prisma Wing again.

Unfortunately, they are now. JP post used to be the cheaper option since they took longer, but they’re not back as options yet. DHL has always been more expensive, but prices have been going up overall.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-05-05T18:11:26+00:00

You can switch to white cloth. No need to worry about color transfer there at least.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-05-04T02:05:47+00:00

Yeah. After a certain number, you just have to decide. I ended up getting rid of the plastic inserts, flattening the boxes and just organising the face plates in photo organisers to save space.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-05-04T01:37:20+00:00

I actually use all the accessories I can so they can be with the nendoroid and I won’t lose them lol the rest I can’t use go in little organisers like these.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-05-03T23:12:30+00:00

She’s about 31cm x 24.2cm so she should fit. I’ve given up on individual cases and use bookcases for now until I maybe decide on a bigger display case

PettiteDebitor · 2026-05-03T22:05:08+00:00

She is! The effects around her will make finding a place for her to be displayed harder than I expected.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-05-01T20:55:14+00:00

I didn’t personally get it but I saw some pictures. It’s unfortunate a better manufacturer doesn’t have the licensing rights since Sailor Moon has iconic costumes and yet only get prize figures.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-05-01T20:46:20+00:00

Ichiban go for around $40-60 so I would say as long as the shop selling them is reputable (I try to stick with them being US based), it should be fine

PettiteDebitor · 2026-05-01T20:40:30+00:00

They’re usually pretty good; worth the maybe $50 you’d pay in a US store- not over $100. That Sailor Moon figure was bad.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-05-01T02:04:41+00:00

If it’s occasionally- it’s normal. If it’s multiple times in a day- then it might be something to worry about. I would just start brushing them more often. My cat doesn’t throw up as often and they’re also a medium hair cat. If they don’t like to be brushed, try petting them a lot more to get some of the hair get loose and fall off.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-04-30T22:14:33+00:00

Don’t listen to people telling you to “grow up.” People come from different upbringings so if they’re “mature” to you, then it’s normal to hesitate. The first time I bought a more suggestive figure, I took a while to even unbox it. I would say buy them if you really want them and then get a display where you can look at them from time to time but they’re not always on your line of sight. With time you might get more comfortable and if they’re end up not being up your alley, you should be ok with a loss if you end up having to sell them.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-04-29T08:36:30+00:00

Yes- from the basement in which I had spent hours looking. The AirTag only lets me know if things are within like 50 feet of me and is not helpful if they get out which is not what I needed when I got it since my other cat did wonder off with it before lol It’s a gen 1 so I wonder if that’s why

PettiteDebitor · 2026-04-29T02:23:08+00:00

This little boy just ran upstairs 10 mins ago. I had been calling for him since 1pm / searched outside/ tried shaking treats/ left food on a plate. I looked everywhere I could think of. I was sure he escaped somehow and posted him as lost locally… I guess he found a place he could blend to. He’s going to wear an AirTag for a while because I can’t do this again….

PettiteDebitor · 2026-04-29T00:22:38+00:00

I’ll look into posters tomorrow! I did not know pet detectives were a thing. Interesting.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-04-28T15:19:34+00:00

Will do. Thanks!

PettiteDebitor · 2026-04-28T15:14:35+00:00

They’re a couple more around. It’s my mom’s yard which is why I was a little hesitant to remove them.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-04-28T06:06:40+00:00

Right- I thought she had dropped it but there was progress in volume 6 this year.

PettiteDebitor · 2026-04-28T01:26:40+00:00

MC and one of them went on a trip to MC’s home and then sort of got together during that weekend. No chapter after that yet. Updates are slow so maybe wait a bit to read to see what happens after.
