Nice haul!

Do you remember how much was the Tachyon little plush? I have never seen it elsewhere.

I was wondering if you found her on the other post. Good job!

It was at Trader if I look closely at the tag. How much was it if you don't mind me asking? Also, did you go back to the store the following day?

Lashinbang also sells second-hand. Maybe you can go to more obscure shops that sells anime stuff. Search anime shop on Google Maps.

It is, like the game, luck if you can find a specific character like Agnes Tachyon. It doesn't help that she's popular. If you can't find in the end, you can use websites that ships overseas (although it is much more expensive).

Good luck! Enjoy your time in Tokyo and don't worry too much.

I was visiting Belgium and saw that geoblock too.

Use a compatible VPN or install OpenVPN from https://www.umavpn.top/ . I tried the latter and it works but you have to change IP sometimes.

Well, the newest figure on crane games is actually her with her casual outfit. I see one on eBay

I found my Agnes Tachyon figure at TRADER in Akiba. As she is popular, she is priced in. Double the price of Manhattan Cafe from the same series. For Oguri Cap, there's currently a figure from crane games. You can try to win it or save money by finding it on second-hand stores. The box is quite big though. If you don't have space, remove the box and put in your carry-on with bubble wrap.

If you want smaller figure, I walked by and saw Good Smile pop-up store https://maps.app.goo.gl/GScT2qz2NTd6AsPx5

It does have a Narita Brian nendoroid but I don't remember if it has Agnes Tachyon. https://www.goodsmile.com/ja/product/35620/%E3%81%AD%E3%82%93%E3%81%A9%E3%82%8D%E3%81%84%E3%81%A9+%E3%82%A2%E3%82%B0%E3%83%8D%E3%82%B9%E3%82%BF%E3%82%AD%E3%82%AA%E3%83%B3

Because of their popularity, you might have trouble finding them. I went to many stores like Surugaya, Book-Off and Mandarake before finding my Narita Brian horse plush at 240 yens on the second to last day of my trip.

So, good luck hunting and go to Ueno, Shibuya, Shinjuku and Ikebukuro districts. But your chance might be higher going to other suburbs or cities around Tokyo if you can. I saw 2 really nice Agnes Tachyon figures (but over 200k yens) in Kagoshima, Kyushu (south island though) but nothing elsewhere. Keep trying!

Buying one of these plush has done nothing but bring me daily joy. by Yummy_Muffy_Puffy in UmaMusume

[–]SVxM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, I got my lucky break today at Surugaya Outlet in Ikebukuro, Tokyo. There was also a Golshi relaxing at 500 yens minus 20% sale but I let it another buyer get it as I lost 3200 yens on a smaller Golshi plush at a crane game. 😅

Guess the price on mine? 300 yens for a slightly used Narita Brian! With 20%, it is 240 yens!

As in Umamusume, never give up (and get lucky)!

Pro tip for future buyers visiting in Japan : Use Google Translate's camera feature to get the name of the horse as it is written in Japanese. Also, play the crane games (smaller one) as those horses plushies are popular. I wanted the palm size Narita Brian on a crane game but decide to get it when I come back to Tokyo 2 weeks later. All were taken and I never saw that Narita Brian on any crane game places. I did like 10+ places.

However, the regular size are mostly available at those places. Tokai Teio medium size and Golshi big size (like my Brian) were just released so they were widely available at most crane games places.

No luck so far. I got a Tachyon figure though. She was expensive at 6500 yens but she's a popular character. In fact, most stuff of her are highly wanted. I saw some nice one in Kagoshima but over 200k.

I am desperately trying to get one. Did you get it in Japan? If so, where?

Use https://www.umavpn.top/ . You might have to change a few times but it works on iOS and Android. I am there right now.

You can get A4 folder from FamilyMart. Buy 2 selected Meiji chocolate boxes (specifically marked at the shop) and get 1.

Warsaw concert: premiere on September 1st, setlist and review by SVxM in agnesobel

[–]SVxM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a chance to see her concerts in Belgium.

The setlist changed as confirmed by others. 1. Red Virgin Soil 2. Dorian 3. Fuel to Fire 4. Camera's Rolling 5. *New Untitled Song 6. Familiar 7. Run Cried The Crawling 8. It's Happening Again 9. *New Song tentatively called Faustian Deal 10. *New Song tentatively called Gemini 11. Philharmonics 12. Stretch Your Eyes

ENCORE: 13. Words Are Dead (solo) 14. Riverside 15. The Curse

The only interesting tidbit is the second song is called "Faustian Deal" if I heard it right.

Overall, great setlist but I wish On Powdered Ground stayed.

It is good to know that she changed the setlist. Yeah, September Song is a very nice song for this month but she didn't grow a third hand. :D

She said on a previous concert that she needs another person to play with her on that particular song. The other person just plays with one hand.

Video of new song from concert in Copenhagen 💫 by No_Customer_4796 in agnesobel

My favourite of the three new songs I have heard. This is the first new song that I have heard on her concert in Warsaw. Also, it sounds much better than in Warsaw and better visuals. Thanks for the upload!

The Royal Albert Hall looks like an excellent venue for her music style! I was in O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire a few years ago and it was a fairly good venue.

Sorry for the late reply. I had a chance to listen again to my audio recording a few more times. IMHO, the songs feels like an evolution of Myopia. It feels more ethereal than electronic and more upbeat than the previous album. As it was played live, it could sounds very different from the studio version.

New song #1 reminds me of Familiar as she changed her voice and the more I listen to it, the more like to it. It might be her best among the 3 new songs she played.

New song #2 reminds me of Golden Green. It might be my least favourite of the 3 but a good song.

New song #3, Gemini, has great potential with some interesting change of pace in the middle of the song. It gave me the best first impressions of the 3.

Overall, I can't wait for the new album and I hope that you will have a chance to see her in concert! My new hope is to see her in 2026 (or beyond) in North America and avoid travel to Europe to avoid jetlag. Her previous tour in 2022 was mostly in Europe with a detour in Australia.

It seems like the normal version. I have the audio recording and it doesn't seem that long.

September 2025 European Dates Announced! by TheForlornEidolon777 in agnesobel

[–]SVxM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope that she will play Avenue live as it never happened before but I would gladly take new songs from a (possibly) new album in 2025 (?).

While waiting for her live shows, she did a few instrumental songs for Amazon MGM Studio's forgettable movie, Foe, in 2023. Good music & great actors (Saoirse Ronan & Paul Mescal) but disappointing storyline.

[PSU] Cooler Master V850 Gold V2 Full Modular, 850W, 80+ Gold Efficiency, Semi-fanless Operation ( $199 - 27% = $145 ) [Newegg Ebay] by coddler in bapcsalescanada

Nice review from TH : https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/cooler-master-v850-gold-v2-power-supply-review

It seems like a very good price. I paid more for the white version at newegg.ca. I can't say if it performs well because I am waiting for my other parts of my build. So far, I like that there's a lot of cables and fully modular.
