My top picks for this week are Mai Sakurajima Chinese Dress Version, Shizuru, Yotsuba Nakano Wedding Version, Black Rock Shooter HxxG edition, Murasakai Shikibu, Byleth, Megumi Kato Memorial Version and Mai Shiranui. You can't go wrong with these figures from the best manufacturers. As usual, stay away from anything from B'Full, Pulchra, Insight and FOTS Japan. Seishun Buta … [Read more...] about 2022 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 2 – Mai, PriConne, Ryza, Miku, BRS, NekoPara, Megumi, Utaha and More

Let's ring in the New Year with a new preorder roundup. My top picks this time around are Graf Zeppelin, Holo, Jahy, Ryza and a plethora of Asuka. Gekijouban Sword Art Online: Progressive - Hoshinaki Yoru no Aria - Asuna - Shibuya Scramble Figure - 1/7 - Crystal Dress Ver. (Alpha Satellite, eStream) Someone from eStream must really love Asuna this being their third Asuna … [Read more...] about 2022 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 1 – Asuna, Graf Zeppelin, Dido, Holo, Asuka, Ryza and More
2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 24 – Too Much Kurumi, Tohka, Yoshino, Shion, Lacia and More
And companies keep on dishing out figures of Kurumi. At least they noticed Tohka and Yoshino this time around too. Other notable mentions this week are Iroha, Shion and Lacia. Date A Live - Tokisaki Kurumi - KD Colle - 1/2.5 - Swimsuit Ver. (Kadokawa) There's too much Kurumi on this pre-order roundup and let's start off with the largest one -- a 1/2.5 scale. This will set … [Read more...] about 2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 24 – Too Much Kurumi, Tohka, Yoshino, Shion, Lacia and More
2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 23 – Uzaki-mom, Ganyu, To LOVEru girls, Yukino, Yui, Sayu, Asuna and More
Hana Uzaki's mom was an unexpected one. We also have a bunch of To LOVEru girls going up for pre-order. And after a few years, we finally get Yui's lingerie version to join Yukino who is also getting a rerelease. Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai! - Uzaki Tsuki - Dream Tech - 1/7 - Ushigara Bikini (Wave) This was rather unexpected. I saw the name was Uzaki and she doesn't quite look … [Read more...] about 2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 23 – Uzaki-mom, Ganyu, To LOVEru girls, Yukino, Yui, Sayu, Asuna and More
2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 19 – Lux, Mai, Atelier Girls, Siesta, Laffey, GFL and More
We've got a lot of good ones this time including Lux (though I have issues with her face), Ryza, a rerelease of Mai, Siesta, Kasumi of Persona 5 and Atelier Sophie. League of Legends - Elementalist Lux - 1/7 (Good Smile Arts Shanghai, Good Smile Company) I am torn on this one. I wanted a scale figure of Lux for so long and they release one and it's the Elementalist skin … [Read more...] about 2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 19 – Lux, Mai, Atelier Girls, Siesta, Laffey, GFL and More
2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 17 – Ningguang, Mizuhara, Albedo, Nakiri, Alice, Milim , Okita and More
Before, I opted not to provide commentary on new pre-orders that come from bad companies that produce poor quality figures so as not to promote them. Now I realize that might be counterintuitive as it deviates from my goal of starting this blog to inform anime figure collectors. I will now start to provide commentary on all new bishoujo figure pre-orders but I will not provide … [Read more...] about 2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 17 – Ningguang, Mizuhara, Albedo, Nakiri, Alice, Milim , Okita and More
2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 16 – Emilia, Nino, Shinobu, Roxy, Jeanne, Kurumi and More
We've got a few good deals on this round-up and also a couple of overpriced ones. I would recommend Shinobu Kochou by Kotobukiya and Emilia's Neon City Version by eStream if you have the budget for it. Kimetsu no Yaiba - Kochou Shinobu - ARTFX J - 1/8 (Kotobukiya) If you're in the market for a figure of Shinobu Kochou, this is a great choice. Kotobukiya is a great … [Read more...] about 2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 16 – Emilia, Nino, Shinobu, Roxy, Jeanne, Kurumi and More
2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 12 – Rem & Shera, Misaka, Saber, Kurumi and More
FuRyu is on a roll. They make up a bulk of the lineup this time around. Their Rem and Shera look promising though I'd rather put my money on Good Smile Company's new Kurumi figure. There are also some new figures from shitty figure manufacturers that I purposely left out. To Aru Kagaku no Railgun T - Misaka Mikoto - F:Nex - 1/7 - Furisode (FuRyu) Trivia for the day: a … [Read more...] about 2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 12 – Rem & Shera, Misaka, Saber, Kurumi and More
2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 11 – Mary Saotome, Jabami, Sirius, Megumin, Muv-Luv Bunnies and More
We've got a few good ones at great prices and some not-so-promising pre-orders. Here's my take on them. Kakegurui×× - Saotome Mary - 1/7 (Good Smile Company, Myethos) When I first saw this going up for pre-order, I had two concerns. My first thought was that it would probably cost an arm and a leg. Color me surprised when I found out that it is only priced at a little … [Read more...] about 2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 11 – Mary Saotome, Jabami, Sirius, Megumin, Muv-Luv Bunnies and More
2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 10 – Emilia, Asuna, GFL, Michiru, Kashima, Asuka and More
I don't know what's happening but I'm seeing some pre-order prices that are lower than expected. Wishful thinking? I just hope this trend continues for the sake of all our wallets. Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu - Emilia - Shibuya Scramble Figure - 1/7 - Hyouketsu no Emilia, Crystal Dress Ver (Alpha Satellite, eStream) If you thought Shibuya Scramble figures by … [Read more...] about 2021 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 10 – Emilia, Asuna, GFL, Michiru, Kashima, Asuka and More
