Figure Event

 
Figure Event
Have you been to a figure event before?
It happened to me and you can see it happening to these men - they become possessed when surrounded by figures.

Well, when you are a true otaku, I feel it is a normal reaction (even if I still find it a bit awkward). 
You have a figure fetish. You attend an event where you can't see the best and the newest of them, with many of them made by the most famous sculptors. Why wouldn't you end possessed? ;)

Yeah, the ones on the left are Gundam Seed Figures. Heck, I've been looking for that set but had no luck in finding it.

Is it just me or are all the figures somewhat ecchi. Do normal figs command as much attention? ^_^"

Maybe the Gundam models can match up.

Yeah we don't have anything, that I know of, like figure events around here.  We barely have one Anime/comic event here and I've never gone to that either.

one of these days i WILL go to Wonfest!!! That's what I keep telling myself. 
Question is, If i ever manage to get there, will I go crazy taking photos? or will I go crazy buying resin kits?? I'm sure I won't have time for both...

No figure events here as much as I know. Places that I know that actually stock figures at all have really inflated prices though T_T

I'm slowly becoming obsessed with figures... more and more expensive ones.... But I havent spent that much on just one just... the most is £30. I've ordered in two from my local shop, but they cant get much in anyway. Is Yesasia any good? Shipping times ok? The prices seem alright.

Figures are lovely arn't they... they're like anime come to life, which is what some of use want right? Although mainly for me it was because I was influenced by Genshiken, seeing them surrounded by shelves of figures made me wanna do the same.
