The gorgeous kit of Kanu that we previously saw at the Wonfes is now available on pre-order as a pre-painted figure. Kanu and her lovely yoko pai's is going to set you back 17,650 yen - discounted from 20,790 yen at AmiAmi. The most I ever paid for a figure was about 7,000 yen (I think) for Mizuki Takase. She was sold out at the time but her eyes were calling out to me and I just had to have her - found her on Yahoo Auction Japan. Whats the most you've ever paid for a figure/gundam, how much was it and where did you get it?
Most I ever paid was £13.99 for the bomme 13th edition... as you can probebly tell i dont have very many...
i like the curves on kanu... its the same feeling as drifting your car around mt akina.. or rather my hands around mt kanu. i paid around 7500 yen for kureha plus shipping.. i couldnt resist her moe-ness
the most i've spent was $75 on a Fate Testarossa by Alter. The pose, huge sword, and cape caught my eye. It was this past Anime Expo. Saw it and just had to get it. Usually $50-60 is my ideal range for figures, but lately there's so many I want and the prices seem to be on way up like everything else.
I know the feeling. Caught my eye too at Anime Central when some guy was walking by with the box. I was able to snag the display model after the con for about $70 But over 200? um...no.
i really want that Kanu figure, but at that price, its out of my range for now. the most i've spent on a figure was roughly 150 CAD for a Freeing Haruhi Bunny. most of my figures are in the 50-80 CAD range as for the most i've spent on gunpla...lol i've lost count of how much money i've spent on gunpla, but the most expensive purchase was probably the PG strike rouge clocking in at around 250 CAD.
Most i have paid so far is for my queens blade airi figure which was about £35 , although there are a few more I've seen lately that i like the look of.
Me not yet a figure collector >_< Me has no figure. ^^
That's a nice Kanu figure there. Cooler than the Alter figure I pre-ordered for next month. That price is way out of my budget. My most expensive Gunpla purchase was a Extreme Blast Destiny MG at MYR280 (~9200 Yen) when it just got released. I regret my impatience as I have yet to start building it and the price now has dropped to MYR240(~7900 Yen) :(
WOAH! now that is one sweet sexy figure. Gotta admit i didnt really enjoy the Ikkitousen series but i love the figures of the series
i got the freeing bunnies and some real action heroes. tsuruya is 11800 yen and the price of briareos was forgotten due to trauma. ^^;
I wonder about Disk Vision's Kanu since I prefer theirs over this one, even though this one looks simply pretty. Most I ever paid was 228 SGD after discount for limited blue Mai from last year's Summer Wonfes.
the most expensive figure i had was the Kamichu one but that is no match for this type of super high price one!
Simca-san (CLabo009) was very expensive, but worth every penny.
wow you have the creator's labo simca? which one the newer one or the older cold cast one? the cold cast one is really nice..but so expensive.. http://www.hlj.com/product/YMT34452
Yes, the older resin one, the same as in that link, although I paid less than that price. She makes almost all my other figures look like trash, except Kureha.
definitely NSFW... i think i'd get funny looks if i were to bring this to my 'workplace'
I paid 3000yen for MaxFactory Haruhi at this one shop in Nakano Broadway. Haruhi is my first figure so can't say much about the most expensive figure yet. I don't know if I can spend more than 5000yen on a figure...
With a price like that it must be in good quality....too expensive...no idea of imports..ToT
The most pricy figure I had in possesion is Cloud+Fenrir. It cost me about 110 USD
Gorgeous figure! O: The most I've paid for a figure was around $130US/each for those Death Note 12" figures by Medicom. ^^;
Not sure if it counts, but my most expensive figure suprisingly is fully clothed. It was The 1/6th Scale LEON S. KENNEDY (Leather Jacket version) from BIOHAZARD 4. Cost me 18,858 YEN from HLJ. (around £92 to us Brits) Worth every penny.
Good grief, that's expensive. I'd rather get the kit and paint it meself. The most I've ever spent was ~$120 Australian Dollars, for the MG Hi-Nu Gundam. Thinking about it, it would have been cheaper to order it from hlj or something, but I was on holiday in Sydney, and the box art and the sheer size of the thing was too tempting.
The most expensive figure I've is Kureha mf ver. I think it was about 55USD. Wait I think the Elwyn kotobukiya ver. I just pre-ordered is gonna beat her (5510yen + shipping).
Most I've paid for a figure was$80.00 USD, it was the Max Factory Kasumi from DoA, black dress. It was sold out everywhere. And I bumbed into it on Play-Asia dot com. Had to buy it since it was the dress I always use when I play DoA on XBOX. Her eyes are to big, and makes the figure lean forward a lot...sigh Another one is the FREEing Haruhi one, bought it for like $109.00USD, but to me it's worth it, looks fantastic.
The most expensive one i think the one I just recently bought from yahoo auction about 4000 yen... I can't imagine buying figurines above 5000 yen... xD Expensive... xD
the most expensive figure i bought is a resin figure of Asuka on Vispo Motorbike. costed me close to S$300 (21,638 yen) from ebay. quality wasn't up to my standards tough despite the high price i pay for it. http://gordonator.blogspot.com/2008/02/asukas-road-trip.html
Whew... now I don't feel so bad for spending close to $200 for Chogokin Voltes V, hehehe. But it was worth it to get a part of my childhood back ^_^
the most expensive figure i'd ever bought was YAMATO's Project Dynamite Kanu Unchou 10,500 Luckily i bought YAMATO's CL#09 Simca only 8600
Most I've spent was 8000 yen for Kureha... next up to break this record will probably be Alter's Chua Churam... she's gonna cost me 8700 yen including shipping...
Those Ikki Tousen girls are soo hot...but can't buy...mom will kick me @.@. The most I ever paid was $119,- for Naru in her leaf bikini. Saw her here for the first time, but she was already out for 2 years. Found the last one on Ebay and bought it xD
The most I paid for a PVC was $100 for Ignis the White and $129 for a pre-painted Bunny Haruhi. Two of my most expensive purchases, but probably two of the best.
$200 for a well painted kit of Eclair from Kiddy Grade. Worth every penny. Then, about $150 for one of Eclair and Lumiere (2nd version characters). Beautiful, them all.
ooh, not bad. I might have gone for it if i could get it unpainted...
mine is ignis the white.. and i dont really regret buying her..
The most $$$ I have is the Al & Raika swimming suit figure by A-lable. 11,800 Yen (T T. http://alabel.sakura.ne.jp/2007/10/_ver_1.html And the 1/6 Feena Fam figure by Atelier-sai, 9,000Yen (T T. http://www.hlj.com/product/ATS82061
The most expensive Figures i buyed were pre-painted Gathering-Kits, 5 or so and each of them about 150-160 € (Euro)/ 23.000 - 25.000 Yen. Something like that: http://www.e2046.com/product_info.php?products_id=7343 Much Money for some small Figures but there are so amazing ... there was only the way to buy them. But that's nothing to the fact, how much Figures i buyed in the last 6 Months ... too much. But i love it.
Forgot somehting. This Kanu, which Danny posted looks great, but i wanted much more this version: http://www.e2046.com/product_info.php?products_id=7702&language=en I mean, it looks greater than this Kanu above, nice painting and matching style.
so sexyyyy rawr
£37.99 for Akihime Sumomo. Which is.. *goes to check on fxtop* Which in yen is 7774. Wow... I know it was hard to get hold of at the time, but wow all the same. I would only knowingly spend that much to get Fauna or that girl from Eldweiss. Normally I try to spend £30 or under. £40 would have to be my top limit, UNLESS, there was some amazing figure I fell in love with.
Hot figure, but too expensive.
I paid A LOT on my Shana figure... it's the one she's sitting using casual clothing holding a melon-pan pillow. Either that, or my Hazuki-chan were the most expensive, reaching almost 300R$ (which is about 150US$). Probably half the price in Japan... but you know.. taxes, other side of the world, shipping...
i'd drop 50-80$ for a figure if I felt really compelled to buy one. I am seriously contemplating buying the HotToys Briareos which is $200 in most sites.
The most I've paid so far is 85 USD for my GSC Iroha figure...I'd really like to get this one as well, but that price translates to about 207.55 USD or 176.20 USD if discounted...that's quite a hit on the wallet either way...
come on someone has to admit that you bought a candy
I don't have any figures T_T But I know I want a Miku Nedoroid.
I think my limit is about 7000yen as I still have to consider the shipping cost that I have to pay in order for it to get here^^ For now, I think the highest figure I have ordered is 6800yen which I will have to pay like SG$105 to get it.
That is the best Kanu I've ever seen 0_0
Expensive. I'd rather get a copy from E2046. It's about $50 cheaper.
