Ever bought a figure just because its rare?

So yeah, ever bought a really rare figure only to later realize that you don't really care for the character, and merely bought it because of it's rarity?

Well, I just did.

Everyone, meet figma Hatsune Miku.















By the way, meet Gurren, who I bought at the same time.

Guess who I like better?

And for anyone curious, here are the songs that Miku and Gurren sing, respectively:

  8. I rather like the one where Gurren kicks Miku's face to the curb. ;D

    I didn't know Miku was so rare, though. I still want a Gurren Lagann Revoltech, maybe I should work on that next...

  11. @ Anna
    Exactly! Long live the Dai Gurren-Dan!

    @ Leon
    The fonts called Anime Ace, you can find it just by googling it ;)

    @ Kodomut
    I wet the pantsu of EVERYONE.

    @ GunStray
    And it was fitting that Gurren was the one to step up to the challenge

    @ B-Mecha
    Figma vs Revoltech would be the greatest battle ever! We should contact Kaiyado and Good Smile to pitch this idea!

    @ Optic
    I must admit, I do enjoy inflicting pain on others

    @ Ningyo
    Heheh, I don't really hate Miku actually, I'm just kinda pissed that she made me waste my money -_-

    @ Emi
    From what I've read from a bunch of blogs, apparently Miku is pretty rare. It was definitely the first time I've ever seen her in a store =P

    And yes! Get the Gurren revoltech! It's the most fucking fun revol ever!

    @ Blur
    lol, good to know I'm disrupting office productivity >=D

    @ Tequila
    Then you know my pain friend. In fact, probably more so given that 1/8 GSC would be more expensive =P

  13. Should I start with GL or Guren, or Arc?

  14. LOL Miku pwnage.

    I ended up buying the Nendo Miku instead of the Figma. The Figma didn't appeal to me as much D: She's still cute, though!

    Seeing Gurren with a mic stand: priceless.

  16. I never quite got into the miku fandom, I prefer cybuster more :3

  17. I actually really like my Miku figma. I wouldn't actually consider her rare either since she has had 3 runs.I do know what you mean though, rare figures are just hard to pass up. I love your blog though. You comments on Duckie's always make me laugh^^

  18. How dare you place your foot on my Miku. I'm gonna blow you up with my Bumble Bee. Just be prepared Gurren.

  19. @ Anna
    You bought GL shit? Sweet! What'cha get!? >=D

    @ Gunstray
    Gurren. Out of all the revols, I reckon Gurren's the most fun; he sure as hell is the most expressive with that giant face of his.

    @ Lene
    Heheh, at some point, I'm gonna take a picture of Gurren with a guitar and the mic stand >=D

    @ Phossil
    Bah! She had it coming.

    @ Wolfheinrich
    Damn straight! We need a Cybuster vocaloid. That's what we need.

    @ Gordanham
    Heheh, thanks >=D

    But yeah, she's had quite a few runs, just that I've never actually seen a Miku figma available in a store till now >_>

    @ RyoBase
    Wait, are we talking Michael Bay Bumblebee, or G1 Bumblebee?

    If it's Bay, Gurren would kick his ass. If it's G1, then we surrender.

  20. I'll admit that as a figure gets rarer I'm more inclined to buy it if I passed it up at the pre-order stage. But so far I haven't regretted any of those purchases. The purchases I regret are usually the ones where the price on the figure is REALLY good and I get the figure just for the hell of it. I used to do that with a lot of Kotobukiya figures.

  21. Ahahaha I love that comic :p

    Now I should go watch Gurren Lagann...

  22. Haw! So you bought a rare figure such as Miku to abuse her? :P Oh wait that's what I did to Saber Lily >.>

    Methinks I should get some abuse on Miku as well.

  25. In the beginning of the 20th century, the city of Santos began to grow of great importance to Brazil. Its port was growing as one of the largest in the world with coffee, a major product in those times, being the most exported product.[13] With the influx of income, the socialites of the city grew rapidly interested in having the city represented in sports. Although water sports such as rowing were the most practiced activity by the city's youth, the city had teams strong enough to compete in the Campeonatos Paulista, with Clube Atlético Internacional and Sport Club Americano being the two strongest representatives.

  27. Below the level of the 3rd league, leagues are generally often subdivided on a regional basis. For example, the Regionalligen are currently made up of Nord (North), Süd (South) and West divisions, and the Oberligen (upper leagues) are composed of nine divisions representing federal states or large urban and geographical areas. The levels below the Oberligen differ between the local areas. The league structure has changed frequently and typically reflects the degree of participation in the sport in various parts of the country.
