| My Wish List & Pre-orders!

| 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)

avatar Lucky Star Figma Konata Izumi Unboxing

Tag: Figure, Figma, Lucky Star, Konata, Izumi
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.

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 >_<

Konata blasts her aerial ULTRA ATTACK BEAM at Haruhi!

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
>_<

OMG!! Konata has taken over the SOS Brigade.. I wonder how Kyon would feel to see Haruhi is no more.. XD

I didnt pre-order her since I has not enough $$$ to pay for her.. However, I shall wait for the OVA to come out.. ^^

@jus a loser,
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...

+1 for Konata kicking Haruhi's ass! WOO! Also, nice reference to Ultraman.

Say, where'd you get the backdrop?

@ konata4life,
LOL! It was a 'wrong' pose there as I hadn't watched Lucky Star before the shot. Konata should've worshiped Haruhi :p
