I will post them early marked as WIP (work in progress) and I'll just update it as new figures open for preorders.

Unboxing Akane Shinjou Swimsuit Version Figure by Aquamarine — A Real Eye Candy
Today, I'm writing about my experience unboxing the Shinjou Akane figure from SSSS.Gridman. This is the swimsuit version figure and I actually unboxed this alongside the Rikka Takarada swimsuit figure (also by Aquamarine). For reference, this swimsuit she is wearing in this figure appeared in the anime. It's the swimsuit that can magically store a mobile phone. A bit of … [Read more...] about Unboxing Akane Shinjou Swimsuit Version Figure by Aquamarine — A Real Eye Candy
2022 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 6 – Eris, Belldandy, New Jersey, Lilith, Ryza, Saber and More
A lot of FuRyu in this roundup and also a lot of great picks. If you're an Azur Lane fan, don't miss out on New Jersey. Also, make sure to get Belldandy unless you want to pay insane after-market prices. Also, please use our affiliate links if you can. I'd really appreciate it since it takes me almost a full day to create these roundups. Mushoku Tensei ~Isekai Ittara … [Read more...] about 2022 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 6 – Eris, Belldandy, New Jersey, Lilith, Ryza, Saber and More

Long post ahead. It takes me a few days to do these pre-order roundups so I would really appreciate it if you can use our referral links when you preorder.

Unboxing Rikka Takarada 1/7 Swimsuit Version Scale Figure by Good Smile Company
This time around I'm unboxing this figure of Takarada Rikka by Aquamarine. Actually, make that Good Smile Company. A bit of a background, the release of this figure was almost canceled because Aquamarine declared bankruptcy soon after this opened for preorders. Thankfully, with Aquamarine being a company under Good Smile Company, the latter came to the rescue by taking over the … [Read more...] about Unboxing Rikka Takarada 1/7 Swimsuit Version Scale Figure by Good Smile Company
2022 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 4 – Honolulu, Barbara, Xayah, Kurumi and More
Not a lot of good picks this week. FuRyu has been dishing out a lot of preorders and Union Creative has a few. Seasoned figure collectors know to avoid these manufacturers. Top picks this week are Alter's Honolulu, Kotobukiya's Barbara from Genshin Impact and Hobby Max's Xayah from League of Legends. Shikkaku Mon no Saikyou Kenja ~Sekai Saikyou no Kenja ga Sara ni Tsuyoku … [Read more...] about 2022 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 4 – Honolulu, Barbara, Xayah, Kurumi and More
2022 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 3 – Miko, Ryza, Rem, Kama, Minato Aqua, Amiya, Sumi and More
Top picks this time around are Minato Aqua and Ryza's swimsuit figure. Don't miss Minato Aqua if you don't want to pay insane after-market prices later. Ryza is also looking really cheery. Sumi is available at a steal of a price which is being done by Kotobukiya whereas Kama looks really nice but comes at a very steep price. Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai?: Tensai-tachi no Renai … [Read more...] about 2022 Bishoujo Figures Pre-Orders Part 3 – Miko, Ryza, Rem, Kama, Minato Aqua, Amiya, Sumi and More
