Looking for list of Rare Figures
Mon 2011/05/30 13:38 JST
I've been curious, does anyone know what are some of the most rare/sought after figures out there?
Of course by figure I mean modern anime figure.
I don't know if my Lucy Maria Misora is that rare. All I know is they only made about 990 of these worldwide in the black. It's still in the box too ;)
Well the doujin work wave figurines. I have Tsuyuri. I don't know if many people wanted them...but I thought they were awesome and they're pretty rare.
Unfortunately the doujin figures are a lot less known.
Wave put out some figures of Lucy and Nana (from Elfen Lied) a few years ago. I don't think that many were made, so they're quite rare and sought-after. I've seen the pair together go for around $1K on eBay.
Please send me a pic if you have one
IIRC Lucy & Nana were wave direct exclusives released back in January 2008, heres link to their official page http://www.hobby-wave.com/LINE_UP/kanseihin/2007/nyu_nana/index.html .
Check Ebay or Yahoo Japan auction and see if there are over inflated figure prices?
That's what i've done. I found that one on ebay, and i've been looking on and off for about a year/2 years.
I have no idea what figures are rare. I'm just a crazy fan boy who just collects for the love of anime. =D. (I had no idea how to contact you so i hope this won't be counted as spamming but...) [ The song to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMwol2k5wwc is by Makino Yui (牧野由依）and its from the single album: ARIA the ANIMATION] [Here is a link to the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6jeoWlitNk and the song you were looking for it called: ウンディーネ (a.k.a Undine). My source is: Using Soundhound --> It's an app on my mac, ipad2, and iphone. (=D it's great so if you have an apple product than you should get it: Free ver. of course.) /
Thanks. Someone actually answered my question a while back. Its a great song, though the video only played the best part of the song. And I've gotta try that app!
Nendoroid Yui (http://www.nendoroid.jp/products/nendo/51_yui.html)is hard to get. As such the cheapest I see her for is around $600. Nendoroid Otohime (http://www.nendoroid.jp/products/nendo/72_asakura_otohime.html) is another harder to find expensive one, at around $180.
Ahhh, made my links wrong.

Nice links, Thanks.
The original 1/7 Saber Lily figure by goodsmile is quite rare & expensive these days, the last one I saw went for £247 not including the shipping cost.
I've seen this one at Mandarake at least twice... and pretty cheap.
No kidding? How much were they? Theyre in the black?
Some red ones (there are some others sold out): http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/item_s-638819.html
