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)

 | Wonfes and Wishlist 2010!

Tag: Figure, Wonfes, Bakemonogatari, Suzumiya Haruhi | | | Quick post, today's Wonfes 2010 (Winter) saw exactly 5 figures that will definitely go onto my pre-order list this year. They are Nendoroid rendition of Haruhi and Yuki from "The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya" movie, the long awaited "original" Saber, figma Haruhi high-schooler version, and the pretty much foreseeable GSC release of a scaled version of Senjougahara Hitagi from anime Bakemonogatari. All photos were taken from Wonfes 2010 (Winter) coverage sites listed below.
| | | Above: Nendoroid Haruhi and Yuki movie version |
• Dannychoo.com • AkibaHobby.net • HobbyStock.jp • Amiami.com
• Update: Foobarbaz has finally gotten his 4-page full photo report here.
| | | Above: Finally, the blue Nendoroid Saber! |
Saber!!! Nothing beats original, GSC was really saving the best looking Saber Nendoroid for today, trashing previously release Saber Lily and Saber Lion.
I have ceased buying figma for more than a year but this mad face Haruhi is rather difficult to pass on as I rarely encounter a Haruhi figure with long hair and casual attire.

Lastly on my wishlist, Senjougahara Hitagi! This self-proclaimed tsundere tsundere shall easily top the most popular figure chart upon pre-order announcement.
