First Anniversary of Nendoroids

Posted by EEG 

Wow! It's been a whole year since I started collecting figures. It was on this day that my box of Nendo-puchi Vocaloids arrived and everything went from there! Real glad I got everyone; they gave me another form of creative expression and something cheerful to play with and look at.

Reimu's stand broke. Super glue doesn't work. For now, she's standing on a piece of gunpla sprue.

Wanted to do the face-swap with Patchouli but her face is stuck! Instead I got this.

I didn't find a Marisa or Patchouli card in the packs I got...

      thanks!
      Gotta be careful and not get carried away with buying too many at once (they can be pretty expensive)!

    My Churuya Nendo has the same line on her hair, I wonder why GSC did that?

    Great photo's and a nice collection of Nendo's. I know which was my first nendo (Haruhi Bunny set), but I can't for the life of me recall when I got it. I'm thinking roughly two years ago.

    That night time lamp shoot was fantastic btw.

      That picture turned out to be a lot trickier to shoot than i thought.

    Very nice pics.I pretty much got into this hobby because of the volcaloid Nendroid pucchis.
    I can also remember wanting the idolmaster pucchis around the same time but they were exclusive.
    I had all sorts of problems with the 1st touhou puchi set ,managed to break neck joint on one of them.

      Yeah, a similar story for me. Originally i was after the Nendoroid Hatsune Miku, but of course she was (and still is) ridiculously hard to get. so when i saw that GSC was releasing the Nendo-puchis, i decided it was the best way to get a Miku.
      My Reimu's head was hard to move around. i pulled it off to try some face swapping and gave myself a big shock when i thought i had broken it. it seems ok now and her head is easier to move.
      Do you think it'd be possible to order replacement parts, like for the clear stems, from GSC?

    I am not aware that GSC deal with anyone outside of Japan.If you had been missing a part ten I would have contacted the supplier who should then contact GSC to get the part for you.
    The Nendoroid Petit: Bakemonogatari Set #3 (PVC Figure) is half price from Hobby Search.
    Perhaps you could use stem from one of these as it is possible to pose these kneeling.

      The stem is not missing; it's just broken. i got impatient trying to fit Reimu and the stem together and it just snapped. I tried using Miku's stem since she doesn't need it to stand up. Apparently the stems are custom-made to go with the particular Nendo-puchi since it just didn't line up.

      What's worse is Reimu's expression throughout the whole thing, since it's like she's saying "What are you doing?!" makes me feel even more guilty...
