AkibaHobby has more pics of this figure of Rena Sayers. She will be out this December and retail for 4,725 yen by Wave.
According to Akiba Hobby shes only 1/10 scale.
The biggest scale figure I have are the Freeing Bunnies at 1/4 scale. Most of my figures are 1/7 or 1/8. Not sure what scale the figma's are though.
Would not mind owning a 1/1 scale "figure" though > Candy Girl. When we move to another office I'll have one sitting at the reception.

What scale are most of your figures?

    Also 1/7 or 1/8. Shame that the old 1/6 preferred scale of the 80s and 90s shrank a bit, but I'm not great at telling the difference between 1/6 and 1/7 anyhow.

    Not sure if Figmas/ Nendoroids count, hehe.

    So far, the 2 scale figures that I do have are 1/8th. I am getting the goth punk Mikuru, though. That one is 1/7th scale. I really want to get the Haruhi girls, but they're going to be hard to find. I don't have the money for them now, and I don't know when I will. x.x

    i prefer figures to be 1/8 as it doesn't take up too much space. 1/6 is alright if the pose is of sitting or kneeling.

    figma should be 1/10 i guess?

      I know fraulein is 1/10. And since figma is smaller than fraulein, so I think they're 1/11 - 1/12. They're pretty small.

    I have quite a few gashapon/trading figures and a half-dozen nendoroid puchi, but my larger figures are anywhere from 1/6 to 1/8. Planning on a 1/4 Freeing Bunny sometime soon though^^

    Maybe two then Danny? Mirai and Haruka both in reception? D: wow, actually that'd be pretty surreal.

    Also 1/7 and 1/8, though I've about a dozen or so 1/10 Gachapon figurines. 1/6 is the largest that I have, and it's of Iroha from Samurai Spirits.

    Don't think I'll ever own a Candy Girl. They kinda creep me out with their blank lifeless stares. O_O

    Mostly 1/8th here. Couple 1/6th (What is the GSC Sumomo? It's bigger than 1/8th, but says 1/8th on box I thought...) I got one 1/5th, Kasumi, and some non scale.

    If I'm not mistaken, Nendos are 1/16, since they are about half the size of "normal" figures.
    http://xspblog.com/2008/09/09/nendoroids/

    I think the biggest I have is either 1/8 or 1/7... dunno if I'll get anything bigger than that, because I won't have where to put it. :P

    Rena Sayers was the only reason 0.sifr was worth watching.

    And as for scale...well, seeing as to how I only have figmas at this point, I don't have a scale figure yet.

    All I can say is that Rena looks "nice". =D Scale wise, I would prefer my figures to be 1/7 to 1/8. I don't want them too small. At the same time, wouldn't want them too big either. Although, a 1/1 Figma of Haruhi would be kind of cool.

    I have a ton of 1/6 and 1/8 scale figures. It's probably about even for both. Plus I have all the 1/4 scale FREEing bunnies.

    Most of my figures are 1/8. 1/10 seems a bit small for a figure though.

    Mostly 1/8 followed by 1/6 and 1/7. I don't know why they even bother with 1/7 scale sometimes. It often ends up being a 1/8 with a higher price tag. :/
