Our apartment – 2016 NSFW

It's been not only a long time since I've posted here, but it has been a long time since I shared photos of my place. The last time you guys saw where I lived I was still living at home with my parents. It was back in 2012, so easily 4 years ago you saw my collection. Now you can see not only has my… [more]

[Alter] – Melty Review

So since I've moved into my new apartment I still hadn't set up my photography studio. Seems work has me busier than I thought I would ever be, however I took some time this past weekend to set up my studio so I could take some photos of my latest purchase, Alter's 1/8th Melty from Shining Hearts. Now… [more]

[Orchid Seed] – Yuki Review NSFW

Pre-ordered this figure the moment she was released for pre-order. I needed for for multiple reasons, she's sexy/half naked, plus while she's not Sora she reminds me of Sora from Yosuga no Sora! But she's Yuki from Maid Yome and she's pretty amazing. The only issue is her adorable mouth really looks… [more]

Nendoroid Storage Container

I recently went on a trip to a magical place, The Container Store. Ok it's not really magical, but I happen to have discovered a love for organizing my home. I tend to prefer Ikea and Daiso but we went to The Container Store on a whim and I discovered this lovely storage container! I've been needing… [more]

Rearranging, Cleaning and Leaning Figures

While nothing to do with this post, i'm re-watching Card Captor Sakura again for the millionth time ^_^

While nothing to do with this post, i’m re-watching Card Captor Sakura again for the millionth time ^_^

Got super bored today and spent some time pulling out every figure, cleaning them and then rearranging them in new places, plus worst off all I discovered a leaning figure. 🙁 I felt like taking down my figures and cleaning them, iI do this from time to time when bored but I never rearrange them. I always leave them where they were before but lately they’ve been piling up since Anime Expo and some just didn’t have any place to go. Well first off I took them down and started cleaning them.

Found some things I didn’t like, a few leaners that need to be fixed, my Alter Meg figure had something that looks like glue all over her face which took me forever to clean off. After I got them all down I then reorganized them instead of randomly like they were before they are now organized by maker.

Bottom shelf I put my Max Factory and Good Smile Company figures. These are honestly my favorite figures since those two are my favorite figure companies. I also added my Konami Haruhi Figumates in there as well so they could be with their bigger counterparts. Also my Kotori is starting to lean. 🙁

Next shelf i put my Alter and Kotobukiya figures. I’m lucky that Shii isn’t leaning anymore, she used to be leaning but i fixed her up. Looks like many people have had problems with this particular figure and leaning. But her sword does like to fall out of her hand the moment you even breath next to her.

Third shelf is Sega, some Kaiyodo and random gashapons. Every single Eva figure i own is from Sega, but hey they were cheap and decent quality. Also my prized sega CCS figures, I searched high and low for Sakura! I had seen Tomoyo in a local anime store and when i made sure she was real online later before i bought her i found they made a Sakura as well! So i went on a one woman search for her, I finally found her online and bought her! Then i went back to the anime store and got Tomoyo to complete the set. Oh GSC/MF i wish you would make CCS figures!

Top Shelf are some figures that i like but kinda don’t really need them to be center stage anymore. I’m just glad i was able to find a place for my Fewture Models Chi. She’s so big that she just takes up so much space. but i was able to fit her in, and i was also able to fit another figure in between her hair, I’m crafty like that. ^_^ And i totally didn’t mean for it to go from tallest to shortest, it just came out that way.

Now much more space for future figures on my bookshelf. Love me the Aria Sachou, So damn cute!

Plenty of space for the plenty of figures that are coming during September – November. Don’t the Yoko’s looks awesome standing together? I’m going to have a whole Yoko shelf after all my orders go through!

While this Shelf is used for my “Favorite” figures at the moment, I’ve got too many favorites so i just moved over Makoto since she’s older to Shana. Well tech. Shana is older but I’ve had Makoto for longer than Shana so I’m giving the spot to Shana so she can shine for a bit. But now i just Keep my favorites close to me in general. Some on my desk, some on the bookcase nearby.

Finally my poor leaning Saber, I would have sold her off by now but since she was leaning so badly she fell off her stand when i first got her and broke her base. So now she’s glued to the base and i can’t sell her like that. At least i don’t know anyone who would pay for a broken figure?

    Use the Force on Saber!

    Anyway I need to get around to cleaning my figures, but luckily (or maybe unluckily) I do not have to contend with that many figures, nor am I too particular about organizing them since most of the time they have to fit with one another and contribute to the overall design and feel of my display cabinet and PC desk. I am such a freak for the feel.

  8. Blowfish says:

    Damn! That poor Saber!
    Is she a regular leaner or was the summer heat involved into this?
    If you werent a girl id be suspicious about the gluelike liquid on Megs Face^^

    How do you actually clean your Figures?

  9. Hirvine says:

    You said you fixed a figure, how did you do that? I’m using the wall as ‘counter-weight’, though I’m running out of corners :P. Nice pics!

    @leaning saber figure: looking at leaning figures are great for a good laugh.. when they’re not your own! jk

    “Alter Meg figure had something that looks like glue all over her face” – ahem….

    I’ve got a figure that I wanted to sell, but I broke her when I took her off the shelf to take pictures for the ebay auction (bad luck or what!)

    I think you’re going to be needing new shelves – you’re collection is huge!

  11. All this recent talk about leaning figures is starting to make me paranoid. >.>

    @dood:
    yeah but at the same time i would feel bad selling a broke figure. plus i wouldn’t be able to sell it for much since she is broken

    @Panther:
    See i’m always cleaning mine since they aren’t protected inside of a case.

    @Anon:
    more like super glue, and is it wrong that my only problem with people “hot glueing” their figures isn’t that it’s jacking off to a figure but that it must be a pain in the ass to clean up afterwards?

    @double:
    seems like this saber is causing lots of people trouble

    @Lostty:
    thanks, i love aria sachou! So cute!

    @Kinomoto-san:
    it’s a nice figure but i won’t bother. Something is off in her face if you ask me…

    @BLowfish:
    it’s a mix of regular leaner and the fact that she’s glue to the base so her center of gravity is off

    @samaosuke:
    I do need more shelves! I bough them so i could have space on my bookcases for books, but after i bought all the shelves i still had to have some figures on the bookcase cause i didn’t have enough space!

    @Coco the Bean:
    leaning figures are always something i look out for. What i do notice is while some people worry about figures that stand on one leg to lean in my experience it’s figures on both legs that lean. sine the maker just assumes it won’t lean since it’s got both legs for support…

  13. I also keep my favorites close to me. I have my shelf with the majority of my figures, and then a small folding table by the arm of my side of the couch with Yoko, Ryu Meifeng and my 3 Figmas (not necessarily favorites, but I can play with them so they are nearby).

    It’s always bad to have a leaning figure!!!!!
    I hate for my figs to be leaning…
    Right now, it’s going to be hell for me to cleaning my figures…
    I bet it was hell for you cleaning all those figures you have…
    You have a lot I say!!!!!!!!
    This is why I put my figures in a glass cabinet…to avoid dust…a bit…

    @Pure Trance (Figured):
    oh i want that Sumomo Nendoroid too!

    @Eddie:
    heat, poor construction, weight placement, lots of things add up to make particular figures lean

    @ron~
    must be the angle of the camera cause yoko seems fine to me

    @Kozta-Boom:
    It’s the Enterbrain 1/7 Yoko, she’s a beauty

    @zxypdq:
    nah she’s the love of my life puppers, she past away 10 years ago but she was a german shepard/chow mix, sweetest dog in the entire universe.

  21. @Dancing Queen – You should try to get it, the game it comes with is pretty fun too.

    Heh, my Saber snaped a peg also, did the hot water magic and a piece of string to make sure she does’nt go again!

    My newest figure… second newest is a 28cm Asuka witch I thought was sega… hmm, my brain just failed me, its “MediComToy”

    I want to steal your Etna, Chidori/Testarosa, Asakura, Amy, Joe, Fuka and Mahoro! 😀

    @Kinomoto-san, You are torturing me with that figure!! It is fantastic T_T
