Flawless's July Loots
July loots, the most that I have ever spent and got in a single month. I blame it on bad timing….Total was $258 USD. Unless I have a job, I hope that I will never spend this much in a single month again…
[Copied from blog post]
Alternate arrangement:
So here’s what I got this month, 1/8 Back Rock Shooter [Black Blade ver.], 1/8 Hatsune Miku, Nendoroid Nakano Azusa, Figma Kagura Aya [Morning Coffee ver.] with Se.Kirara, NyanType Vol. 6, Character Song Saya CD, and 3 di:stages.
Lovely loot indeed. Notice the big pile of cardboxes behind them. Now let’s take a look at each package of items. First are the di:stages that were not pictured above.
Package from AmiAmi, 2 of them are mine, the other 2 are my little brother’s. I actually never expected the boxes to be as big as a Figma box…
My 3rd di:stage (1st actually) came from a contest held by Reno’s Figure Reviews. I won 2nd place, so I was rewarded with a di:stage. Thanks! ^ ^
Another from AmiAmi, NyanType Vol. 6. This was a sudden buy, it was on sale, and I have always wanted to try out NyanType, plus I could hitch a ride for the shipping so I thought why not?
I actually didn’t want to start NyanType with the issue though…since I didn’t really like the bonus. Which is a lame Peller Model and you put stickers on it….lame…
More from AmiAmi, the 2 items on the left are mine, Nendo Azunyan and the CD. The 2 on the right are my friend’s, who is a fan of Fate/Stay Night.
Of course, I took this chance and I got a photoshoot of the Fate/Stay Night Nendo Puchi set for you. I will get it up whenever I can.
Proxies are sure expensive, paying domestic shipping, commission fee and EMS…cost me $65 USD in total. Well I could excuse this since it’s an eroge with a Figma. These games usually go for ¥9000 and the figma usually ¥2500. So thinking it that way, I think it was worth it.
Sudden buy from Figure.fm, she cost $80 USD. It couldn’t be helped I guess…
Very cute, though her hair isn’t as blue as I thought…I will see what my photoshooting skills can do about that…
The box also smells like detergents…perfectly brand new, sealed…but I guess it was still sitting in someone’s house…I will just air it for a bit.
I love how her name is correct on the box. Makes me very happy. ^ ^
Ok, last package from AmiAmi (this one actually came first). Shipped by EMS, and $30 just for the shipping, orz. Big box indeed. ^ ^;
Either way, this figure is fantasic~ I would have preferred less blue on the box, but whatever.
I took her out for some shots then I put her back into the box. It has easily became my favorite figure so far and I want to set it up properly. I can still see it next to my desk though. ^ ^
Absolutely awesome~ Words can’t describe it. This figure is just beauty. I can’t believe that I almost canceled it. Now, I am seriously considering dead Master, but with my budget….I can’t wait to watch the OVA, just a few more weeks…
you should tell me how good the Nyantype Magazine is... cuz i might wanna get the Vol. 10 one xD and Ur loot is Awesome. My Expensive loot was $325 which was last month. And yeh I dont have a job either so we're on the same team xD
It's like Megami, but I think there's a few minor differences. I just browsed through it a bit, I haven't fully read it yet. I can tell more about it after I read through it if you give me some kind of contact info. Don't expect it any time soon though. ^ ^;;
I don't have an allowance either, so my loot will decrease from here on unless I get a job. >.<;
Gotta work hard...
you can contact me anytime at azntuan7ATyahoo.com... I never bought a Magazine before, except that I have a Hobby Japan with BRS DVD included being shipped at the moment. xD
and yeh I dont have allowance either, so I have to sell random things using Craigslist to get a little bit of money xD haha.
Ok, will make a note to tell you about it once I finish reading the magazine.
I have the BRS DVD about to ship too, but it's with the Megami magazine instead of Hobby Japan. ^ ^;
oh nice, I was planning to get the Anima-something magazine that also comes with the BRS DVD but I really wanted the DVD so I got Hobby Japan instead. xD UNLESS Im really patient and wait till December to get the limited edition BRS bluray with BRS nendo Petit. xD but it was too late cuz my hobby japan is gonna be delivered to me next week xD
Animedia, I have never read Animedia so I never considered it. ^ ^;
The limited edition with the petits are too costly for me. And there's no way I'd wait that long. ^ ^;
My magazine will probably arrive in a week or 2.
Awesome! Nice loot you got there! :3
I ordered my FSN nendo puchi in a local figure store, and sadly they haven't arrived yet :c
You can download the OVA for BRS btw XDD although it's not as good as I had hoped, but it's awesome nonetheless :3
BTW, you have very lovely photos of BRS there, may I ask if you have some lighting setup going on there or maybe something with your camera perhaps? :3c
The Fate/Stay Night set isn't mine, my friend order them through me....maybe I should have charged him a commission...lol
Downloading it? Tendou's grandma said this, "It is enjoyable to eat something delicious, but the greatest joy is the time spent waiting for it."
I'd rather wait to watch it on the DVD, and it's always good to have the physical thing. Gotta support the industry. ^ ^
I used this for my lighting setup:

My camera is the Nikon D5000 DSLR with a standard lens.
The BRS figure looks stunning. Nice GET!
Thanks! ^ ^
Wow, great haul you got there. :)
That Miku is really a beauty. She remains my favorite Miku figure of all time. <3
Thanks. I also think that that Miku is still one of the best figures of Miku. ^ ^
a good haul(^^)
Total $258!? ∑(=ﾟωﾟ=;) Nice job!
I do think $258 that in a month is alot. ^ ^;
I will try to spend less...or get a job. :3
Nice loot~ especially the Se.Kirara game with the figma...
By the way what sites did you use to buy Se.Kirara? There are so many goods on yahoo auction jp that I want but I can't get...
I used Tenso. They don't do it for you though. They give you an address and you fill everything out yourself.
They only have EMS as well. If you really don't know Japanese then I recommend Goody Japan.
