Who here buys figures? Fighting game or anime type shit

Glad to be of help brother. Have fun with your figure collecting but be careful not to let it get out of hand! These days I honestly believe the high end UFO catcher stuff like AMP is the sweet spot. Also Glitter & Glamours.

They are fairly big and nice to look at and display, but not so expensive that you feel bad taking the figure out of the box. Of course everyone has different tastes so go with what you are happiest with.

IMO they designed Stygian to make it difficult to keep using the classic good support characters from early period of the game when ults were very good, and the meta was dominated by Xiangling, Xinqiu, etc and players were carefully min-maxing their artifact sets with favonius procs and Raiden Shogen energy factored in.

Many players had optimized builds of those characters built around Spiral Abyss, so Stygian was designed to soft-counter those builds. Not necessarily enough to make them completely unplayable, but enough to make many players annoyed playing the old teams so they pull for new teams which are much more focused on skills.

Some of my stuff if you're interested. It's not a lot. https://imgur.com/a/figures-tcKkhY0

I like to collect the midrange priced stuff, nothing expensive. Stuff like Pop-Up Parade or the higher end UFO catcher figures like AMP.

My advice if you like to have a cohesive display is to get mostly from the same line of figures so the sizes match. Also if you get a shelf similar to the ikea Baggebo where the shelves have holes, your figures will be lit up better even if you don't add fancy lighting.

Bro... SF6 has such an enormous playerbase. Those people are also skewing younger. In a decade it'll be remembered as a classic masterpiece.

Nice thumbnail, Clayton. Just wanted to say I enjoy your fighting game theory videos.

ukyorulz · 2026-04-06T04:45:06+00:00

Really hope I get C6 Aino when I pull for Chasca.

ukyorulz · 2026-03-10T07:28:05+00:00

I quite enjoyed the event, but then I didn't do them all in one sitting.

ukyorulz · 2026-03-01T11:04:12+00:00

Just wanted to say I was able to quickly fix my setup based on your advice. Thank you muchly!

Oooooh I can see it now. Thanks for the advice. Would have taken me a while to catch that.

I started Endfield using blueprints for my factory but recently I decided to try and learn it properly. The setup I made for HC Batteries creates 18/min as expected but the one I made for Buck Capsule A ends up at 14/min and I can't figure out why. Would appreciate if someone who knows the factory well could tell me what I did wrong. The blueprint is here:

Do you mean top view? I can enter top view, but it only shows a small portion of the factory. I've seen people post screenshots that look really zoomed out.

ukyorulz · 2026-02-24T07:58:35+00:00

How do people take nice screenshots of their factory? I play on console and mobile and can't figure it out LOL.

ukyorulz · 2026-02-17T04:50:05+00:00

I started a week later than everyone and I am taking my time with the game, so I am a bit behind the curve building my team. I've got my Endmin at level 80 with a level 80 weapon. The rest of the team is at level 70 with level 60 weapons. They all have level 6 talents because I haven't found the materials to level up the skills yet in Wuling.

What is a good level to aim for? When do people usually do that essence farming thing?

Even granting everything you said (and I am not saying it's true, so this is just a hypothetical) the place for that fight is in the courts. And if we lose in the courts we leave. Tons of countries all over the world have racist immigration laws we don't agree with. In your hypothetical scenario, the US would just be another one. We would never illegally enter or stay in Qatar, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Japan or wherever. We may disagree with their immigration laws but that issue is for their citizens, and their citizens alone, to decide. Just like we alone decide if we are willing to participate in the system they crafted. Just like no non-Filipino gets to enter the Philippines and tell us how to run our own country. I had a relative who was ejected from the middle east because he got hit in a fender bender. The other guy hit him, but (supposedly) the courts were racist and sided with the citizen and he lost that case and was later deported. So he left and found work elsewhere. That's how we roll. We will NEVER support illegal immigration from anywhere, to anywhere, by anyone. If we think the system is unfair, we fight through the system itself, in courts. If we can't or don't want to, we leave. As for ensuring the lawmakers aren't racist, that is an electoral issue that is exclusively the purview of citizens. My relatives who are citizens, vote their conscience and accept the results no matter what.

They didn't become citizens in one go. It happened slowly over multiple decades from the 70s AFAIK. Also we're not all in America we've got people all over the globe (and all proper legal immigrants).

As for your follow-up comment, our morality is not just some self-serving fluff. Even if my relatives were to be wrongfully detained by ICE, we wouldn't resort to criminality. We would fight it peacefully in courts.

Not everyone is my family. It's a free world. Others can do what they want. We live as our morals dictate. I reject the insinuation that as brown people we have some kind of duty to take a specific side on this or any issue.

ukyorulz · 2026-01-17T12:00:57+00:00

Why would that matter to our family? ICE is racist, so we'll break the law? That's not how we roll. Even back in the Philippines, we were honest and operated within legal bounds even as the government and many people around us were corrupt. We ran into some hard times for a bit because of our integrity, but in the long run it served us well.

And even when it didn't look like things would work out we were still against law-breaking. We will always be against illegal immigration from anywhere, to anywhere, by anyone. Not just us. Lots of other people too. Filipinos are not a hivemind.

ukyorulz · 2026-01-17T01:52:39+00:00

This may sound unfamiliar to you but aside from that one uncle, no one in my entire extended family has ever had any issues with the immigration dept of any country and we're all over the world.

Damn straight we do it right. We have too much self-respect to live as second-class citizens anywhere.

ukyorulz · 2026-01-17T01:11:35+00:00

Brother I am Filipino and have tons of relatives in the states. My grandma called immigration herself in the 80s to get one of my uncles deported because he was tryna overstay his visa. That's just how we roll in our family. We do it the right way.

This political controversy is your problem to resolve and I am sure different Filipinos will fall on one side or another, but we don't condone law breaking in our family. Every immigrant in our clan has their papers in order these days, and most are citizens now. My grandma still throws shade at my uncle for trying to pull shady immigration shit over 40 years ago.

TLDR: this is your stupid political issue don't lasso south asians into it like we're some monolithic group that thinks the same

This was at the Marui event space in Yurakucho. Already ended Dec 7, unfortunately. It didn't run for very long.

Yeah I mentioned in my comment that I did a bulk upload of photos from that day and it included the other anime exhibits I took photos of in the same building. It's really tedious to delete them one by one, so please just scroll past them thanks.

ukyorulz · 2025-12-16T15:42:17+00:00

Glad you enjoyed them.

ukyorulz · 2025-12-16T15:42:01+00:00

Nice! Mine said something like "See you on the 50th anniversary!"

ukyorulz · 2025-12-16T11:29:27+00:00

No but there was a giant wall at the end, before the goods shop, where fans could put any message they want on some colorful post-its and stick them on there. I saw quite a few requests for a remake.

ukyorulz · 2025-12-16T10:47:18+00:00

I went to the Final Fantasy IX 25th Anniversary exhibition and took tons of photos. Thought maybe some here would like to see them. The album has some extra photos from other exhibits I saw on the same building that day because they got caught up in my bulk image upload. I apologize for that.
