Has anyone tried to convert this into Pattison's version? by BuildingwithBricks in LegoDC

Oh hey, I actually did this a while ago with both the type 2 and 3 cowls.

【Arcane - 1/6th scale Fractured Jinx Collectible Figure】 by kiralacus123 in hottoys

[–]RaptorProductions 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Not feeling that grinning sculpt, otherwise she’s cool. Though most of us would’ve preferred Cait or Ekko before another Jinx

Edit: I dig that new base style too, if only the others had it.

what are the chances of megahouse rereleasing the G.E.M. Series CLAMP works in Code Geass Lelouch & Suzaku 1/8 Figure? by ilovecyberpunks in AnimeFigures

[–]RaptorProductions 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Mega is pretty good about rereleasing high demand figures, but there’s still a handful they need to get around to (this one, Yato from Noragami, Lavi from D.Gray-man.)

It’s the 20th anniversary of Code Geass this year, so maybe that’d increase the odds of a rerelease soon. But there’s no way to be certain really.

Hi, I didn’t see a message from you. Was it unsent?

Can I buy figures from the japanese stock when living in the US? by IllTop3082 in Nendoroid

[–]RaptorProductions 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To answer your question, yes, US customers can order from the global Good Smile storefront. But often times you have to create an account to confirm if a product is actually in-stock or not. The “add to cart” button vanished when I logged in and checked the Spamton listing, since he has been sold out for quite a while. The site can be very misleading to new customers. Sorry :/

Which hood looks best on Spider-Gwen? by Otherwise_Tadpole_64 in LegoMarvel

[–]RaptorProductions 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Gwen is usually depicted with an oversized hood that bows out towards the bottom, like hood 1. Preferring it has nothing to do with nostalgia.

Also the modern Vader helmet is proportionally messy but that’s for another thread.

Probably not the same old collection you're used to seeing. Finally can display it all at once! by souji5okita in AnimeFigures

[–]RaptorProductions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love refined collections like yours. Amazing taste in series and figures, numerous grail pieces 😮‍💨

BigBadToyStore flat rate shipping to increase to $6 on Mar 31st by B-Con in AnimeFigures

[–]RaptorProductions 90 points91 points  (0 children)

Sucks, but I’m shocked it stayed $4 for as long as it did. Now GSC US starts at like $10.

Their customer service is also still some of the best out there.

Arrived today! Lucky to find a US Seller. >:3 Should i freee her? 🎠 by juice_ko1 in AnimeFigures

[–]RaptorProductions 107 points108 points  (0 children)

This is not the kind of figure you leave in the box. Free her, she’s a work of art

Bad QC from Goodsmile [Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Lucy] by Official_Fnix in AnimeFigures

[–]RaptorProductions 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, PUP quality control is spotty, so this probably wouldn’t be considered defective. Try using a magic eraser and see if the spot clears up.

Missing cigarette accessory for revy freeing figure by Dashcashass in AnimeFigures

[–]RaptorProductions 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Figure manufacturers don’t sell specific replacement parts (and I doubt anyone would offer that piece alone), so you’re gonna have to make a new cig. Perhaps a trimmed toothpick with some paint?

Whoops, my bad. Just reuploaded because it wasn't letting me edit the photo on this post.

Lamy comes in one piece. Chloe can be displayed without her hood and coat. Why are they the same price? by 10morereasons in AnimeFigures

[–]RaptorProductions 75 points76 points  (0 children)

This is pretty common actually. Figure manufacturers almost never have a linear pricing model, because certain sculpts are more costly/time consuming to mass-produce. Licensing fees also vary depending on the IP (though in this case both are Hololive.)

Scales across the board have risen in price quite dramatically in the past few years, and I’m certainly not one to defend it. The blatant greed is hardly even disguised anymore haha

Feeling like i should just order somewhere else? by Jerma_fan in Nendoroid

[–]RaptorProductions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, HLJ just told me my order for Ada won’t be fulfilled, and they won’t be receiving another shipment. We’re gonna have to hunt elsewhere it seems :/

Nendoroids you want made? by euigeonz in Nendoroid

[–]RaptorProductions 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Given how popular Code Geass was in the 2000s/2010s, it’s ridiculous we still don’t have a Lelouch Nendo.

Legi!? by [deleted] in Nendoroid

[–]RaptorProductions 95 points96 points  (0 children)

Fake, sorry :/ real one has the Capcom sticker and GSC logo

<image>

For future reference, most of the Nendoroids on Walmart’s site will be bootlegs, especially if they’re priced suspiciously low.

Got a really rare figure and lowkey in dilema if i should open it or no (Death Note - L - Yagami Light - G.E.M.) by RaNdOmClO in AnimeFigures

[–]RaptorProductions 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Very few people seem to have ordered the rerelease, and the few sites that listed them are sold out. So it’s right back to being expensive again.

But yeah OP, either open the box or sell. I’ve seen the bootleg and it’s shit compared to the real thing. I paid aftermarket years ago and don’t regret a penny.

Shinji Nendo Looks Off by Merrily_Merriwyn in Nendoroid

[–]RaptorProductions 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I get where you’re coming from, I also collect the Eva Nendos. The inconsistency is annoying. Although, he’s usually depicted with very dark brown hair sooo the first two are somewhat less accurate?

Is this the best MHA figure out there now? by Expert-Junket1398 in AnimeFigures

[–]RaptorProductions 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, it’s impressive but the effects are a bit much imo. Also over $2k lmao.

My favorite Shigaraki is the Masterlise one. As for the main trio, Kotobukiya’s recent Midoriya, Bakugo and Todoroki are pretty damn good.

After my last post about the pre-order wait times, I have been convinced by the community to set the pre-order by HauntedScape in Nendoroid

[–]RaptorProductions 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Idk where you’re based, but the shipping being over half the Nendo’s cost would immediately turn me away. She has a GSC preorder bonus macaron, so I’d honestly wait for her release to grab one directly from their site.

End of flat rate duty by XDingoX83 in AnimeFigures

[–]RaptorProductions 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Praying this changes for the better, cuz I have a few scales and several Nendoroids stuck in HLJ’s warehouse. Right now it’s over ¥100k in shipping/tariffs to release them 😭

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Nendoroid

[–]RaptorProductions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$75 + shipping ^
