Have not heard much about Ryofuko-chan but the nendoroid is quite cute - the full version over at Danny's Corner. This particular nendoroid is a tough nut to get. You need to buy all four Ryofuko-chan DVD's and then send in the vouchers that come with each DVD together with a 3,000 yen Japanese postal order. Furthermore, only the first batch of DVDs have this offer. These are known as OEM products where Good Smile would make a product for another company. You will notice that OEM products by Good Smile have not been featured on their official site up until now but I will work on getting them up there. Have you collected stuff/coupons to get other exclusive figures or goodies? When I was a wee lad, I used to collect Star Wars figures - the card that they came on had a voucher - cut them out and send in about 10 to get an exclusive figure.
So the total cost of this nendoroid comes to 23000 ($218 USD) yen, thats after paying the shipping fee, and buying those DVDs. Someone catch me because I'm about to pass out from reading that. This is a nendoroid for people who own cash trees in their yards. xD.
Or someone not concerned with their credit card bills/balance... >.>
Or who want the DVDs anyways.
Didn't even know there were such things as OEM products in figure business. Learn new things on DannyChoo everyday:)
Oh no, please tell me the Kodomo no Jikan Kuro isn't one of these. ;________; Well, I use to collect the cereal UPCs and traded them in for various prizes. The stuff was all pretty useless but fun to have.
japanese just couldn't resist rare or limited item >< especially the otakus
Never done something like this before...but that's pretty hardcore...
Which makes it plain impossible to get one. I mean, I'm having the worst time trying to get the most popular nendoroid here... only because local importers won't get Hatsune Miku because she isn't a proper anime figure. But I'm happy I was able to get my Kona-saber... http://www.dannychoo.com/detail/mac/eng/image/8580/XSp+SAFS.html
Well, I'm not sure if I would attempt to get such a figure like this. Only if it was from a show I really liked and planned on buying the DVDs anyway.
............
Sending in vouchers versus rifling through Good Smile Company's rubbish bins... which would yield the greater treasures I wonder?
D: It's nice that these tpyes of purchases exist, it works for some people but, in the end.. it's harder on those who can't get hold of the items in their country. Not to forget the price
I Want this one badly but I can't get one - not on Ebay - I live in Holland BUT I WANT IT SO BAD _______________________________________________________________________ I have all Lucky Star nendoroid Shana was on Ebay and I have Sumomo I also want Yui nendoroid
Thats harsh... but yes. I did the collecting vouchers thing. I got my Casper the friendly ghost watch that way. And my bro got his Andrex puppy that way lol. We did the cereal toys thing too. Don't see that too often now... no puppy in my pockets in your cocopops anymore are there?
....O_o I am not doing that.... good thing am not interested in that Nendroid
waahhh! i sooo wanted to have this one...but...but....arrgghh! so hard to get.
i hate tis kinda exclusive stuffs.. =3=
Nice Nendo, but the show is not that good to warrant a "buy-all-DVDs". Though I chuckled at the tiny scene of Mesousa getting swept by the waves. That said, does anyone here has a Nendoroid Mesousa for sale?
I really liked the Ryofuko-chan animes; they are really funny. I'd love to have the figure too, but it ain't gonna happen, not for that kind of money. Sheesh, gimme a break...
Cuuuute~! I want more Nendroids XD Dunno this anime though... must research ^_^
Ryofuko-chan was a kickass anime!! Might consider getting this one, but crap, it's included with another thing!
cute but waaaaaaaayyyyy over budget. i have closed my wallet for some months now. ^_^`
Isn't there some sort of deadline involved though? I mean you can't just purchase the dvds now and send in the slips, assuming you got any, and expect a nendoroid back, can you? This particular nendoroid started shipping back in August. I purchased mine on an auction site a month ago or so. Currently these are fetching $400-650 on auction sites like yahoo Japan.
Woah... that's all I can say.
your kidding wright??? 400$ is just to much 200$ maybe but not that much
Wow, this figure sure is hard to obtain...
Wow, just started watching this show and then come on to find that they're making a figure too!
Genius. What a way to take full advantage of those weak against limited edition rarities. This nendoroid has sparked my greatest interest due to cuteness and absolute rarity. Damn, Kagami was right...I'm a weak person..
I agree with Kagami on that one
