Natsumi Hinata
Have always wanted this resin kit figure of Natsumi by Bome and saw a link at Figure GK going to Yahoo Auction.
I thought, "OK I'm getting this. Now how much is it?"
I then saw the price which was 238,000 yen and immediately thought "OK, I'm not getting this."
If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.

Hmm... 50cm tall resin figure for 238,000 yen, is it 100,000 yen for each 'eye' and 38,000 yen for the other parts^^.

The price is just overkill...

Is that a joke auction? Like thumbing one's nose at the crowd going "Neener neener, I have this and you don't have it!"?
Even the Sengoku Rance 1/4 Uesugi Kenshin resin figure specially painted by professionals and put on sale at Volks shop in Osaka cost less than 60,000 yen.

I would much rather have bought that pre-painted Kenshin.

The price of a resin figure varies wildly on a variety of factors. Rarity being one of them, and I think this one is pretty rare!
Paint job is incredibly neat as well.
But the last auction I saw sell for this much was a strike gundam Kitbash to turn it into an Akatsuki. But at least that started at a respectable 10,000 Yen. This figure has a starting bid of 238k. Keep an eye on it. I doubt it would sell for that much so it may reappear for a much cheaper price.

Too expensive! That will surely create a blackhole in your wallet or your wallet will vanish!

If I had the money to spend, and could confirm that it was a limited run pre-painted (key word) resin cast, I would definitely buy it. Can't go wrong with Mine and Bome.

For quite some time, Bome had a deal with Kaiyodo to make PVC versions of his figures, but from what I've heard, that has ended. I guess that means we won't be seeing a cheaper version of this figure...

If you're a die hard keroro fan, and for really good quality plastic and metal material, then it should be your worth for it. Imo, it might just be a limit of one figurine of Natsume and that one figure only. So I guess it's worth it for the person who buys it.

the figure isnt that great and 238,000 yen is almost 2 years worth my figure budget -_-
