The best solution is to not buy them in the first place. XD
Some people find it's cheaper to construct their own displays/shelving for the larger statues.
Well I was thinking of the Besta for something more heavy, even if it does have the border (apparently they used to be able to replace the front door with all glass?). I normally use Detolf for stuff but the max shelf load is apparently about 7.5 lbs. I don't know if that applies to the wooden base though. Some of the stuff I ordered is like... 16-20 pounds?
The depth seems to be an issue, too. Some of these statues are really big in all dimensions, so it's not a universal solution. And spending $115 per isn't cheap. But then again, if you're buying $500 statues....
BigBadToyStore is taking pre-orders on these. Which may help you more.
What a bargain :p
Kidding aside, I feel a custom solution might be the best thing.
oh, I know it's expensive as shit. But outside of a custom solution, you're going to spend a bundle on any display option designed for statues of this size.
i wish more of the persona 5 figmas/nendos were based off their school/normal outfits and not their phantom thief costumes
i would get the makoto nendoroid but her phantom thief outfit is too dull for a nendo
speaking of persona 5, my futaba nendo order should have been here yesterday if canada post didnt fuck up by sending it to brantford for some reason

Hmm I might be able to put multiple first 4 figures in that depending...
It's super frustrating. I've been collecting mostly nenderoids and small statues for years but now that I can more reasonably afford First 4 stuff, I suddenly have to factor in buying all new shelving units and figuring out space to put them. This is mondo all over again.
I wonder if KOS-MOS is going to have a base that fits together with Pyra and Mythra or if she'll be standalone.
Impossible to know. I'd like them to at least make the base look similar, even if it doesn't -fit- with the other two.
I just hope it's not another year slog to wait for any info.
KOS-MOS is GOAT, but I can't help but feel that Pneuma is getting the short-end of the stick. And if they do plan to have a figure of her...it's already too much waiting.
Realistically, we're looking at 2019-2020 for KOS-MOS, and that's being optimistic. A potential Pneuma would be for 2021+.
Yeah, there really should be a Pneuma figure to complete the Pyra/Mythra set. Feels like a missed opportunity.
Shunya is a genius of our times. Squirrel Girl and She-Hulk are also some of my favorites from the Marvel line.
She-Hulk is great but I still think Power Girl might be the GOAT.
I was only talking about the Marvel line. But yeah, Power Girl is great. I also really like Black Canary and Poison Ivy.
Pre-orders are now open for Batschlong
Dat budge.
Also, even through it's the artfx+ version, Carol looks pretty good here.
I know 1/10 is a small scale, but the ArtFX+ human face sculpts do not look great. I guess that's why they stuck with 97,000 Stormtrooper variants in the SW line.
Yeah, but Carol's face doesn't look that bad honestly.
This avengers lineup minus Vision.
I finally put together the LWA cast, yay!
Also, the new Nendoroid boxes have a much more convenient size, but I don't like how some parts are left loose in bags.

Whatever it takes. I'm happy the boxes are now much more compact.
You haven't seen the new ones yet? They've been smaller since sometime last year.
Yes, me too, but they could just put another plastic holder to fit all the pieces, for some reason they don't do that with every figure :(
Finally the Super Mario/Forest Gump crossover figure we have all been waiting for:

I think the button is just there to give people false hope lol
Hey guys, I don't know if this is the best place for this, but I've got a $23 balance on my Sideshow account from a purchase I made about a decade ago (I'm amazed they've kept the money available for me that long).
Anyway, the money's been sitting there for ages and I'm never going to purchase anything else on the website, so I'd happily give the account away to anybody who's into that kind of stuff. I'll be waiting for your PMs.

Ha ha holy shit Gecco. $1200 for the Gantz hardsuit. It is 22" tall and made of a bunch of materials including polystone and resin, but still.
Gecco is the company that started charging $300 per 1/6, PVC figure when the other companies bumped up their prices a bit. Before that, Gecco was only in 12k¥ territory. Now they ask 30k for standard figures, 50-60k for taller figures like the Black Knight and Lord of Cinder, and apparently 100k+ for.....this.

/flashback of working on shots with the hard suit on 32GB RAM and it is still not enough for test render
Doesn't look impressive for $1200...
Not at all. Especially when for $1200, you can get things like this from Prime 1:
It is literally the same price.
Yeah, the other one I was waiting for (Ichimanda Munetoku and Senzaki Tokuno) got delayed to April. RIP.
I had the Red Nekomusume figure, DBG #18 ver 4, and Makoto Yuki figma all for this month. The #18 got delayed and Dva took it's place. Now Dva is delayed and now it's much more easy on the wallet . :D
Looks good.Really glad to have found this thread, didn't think this stuff got any love on era.
Is it cool to post recent buys as well, or is it more news-oriented? My last purchase was the F4F Spyro EX, really glad how it turned out, almost makes up for all the delays
I just had two Native orders delayed to March and April.
I see you ordering lewds.
