Overseas Otaku Buying Tips |
Making
online purchases/pre-orders especially for Jpop
CDs and anime/game PVC figures have always been
the best option for me (and many otakus who do
not live in Japan). Listed below are my wish list,
preorders and purchases from these reputable online
companies. Your purchase via these links supports
this site :)
• YesAsia
(Bought my Jpop CD/DVD here)
• J-list
(many 'weird' Japanese stuff)
• HobbySearch
(Comprehensive inventory
but no free shipping
and no shipping cost
provided upon placing
an order )
• HLJ
(very good alternative to HobbySearch)
• E2046
(many figures & rules in resin
kit)
• Play-Asia
(My #1 online shop)

| | | XL-shop just got their Figma Konata Izumi of Lucky Star in stock hours ago and I was there at their wholesale premise watching them unboxing their huge carton of Figma. As usual, poseable Figma Konata Izumi includes an alternate (>_<) face, many hand gestures, and a stand. The moment she was unboxed, I noticed that Konata has a slight hunch making her difficult to pose. | | | Above: Figma Konata Izumi |
I am bad at posing Figmas so I didn't bother playing around with them much. As a newbie to Lucky Star, I simply mimic the sample pose shown behind the box >_<
| | | Above: Figma Konata Izumi |
Konata blasts her aerial ULTRA ATTACK BEAM at Haruhi!
| | | Above: Urutora Attakku Kosen!!! |
After Haruhi was defeated, Konata took over the SOS-Dan!

Obviously you could tell that Konata has a different scale and she actually doesn't fit well above
>_<

I get Konata because she's an otaku :)
@gordon,
LOL!!! I haven't finished Lucky Star so Konata is still quite a stranger to me.
Oh? There isn't any physical shop that sells Konata in SG?
@otaku dan,
Like it or not Konata leads the SOS Dan now LOL!!!
I agree, somehow this figma looks kinda weird.
@Fariz Asuka,
I bet Kyon will find Konata more attractive :p
Eh? There's an OVA version? Thanks, let me google around...

Say, where'd you get the backdrop?

LOL! It was a 'wrong' pose there as I hadn't watched Lucky Star before the shot. Konata should've worshiped Haruhi :p
