I got a MTM Barbie, so I could switch my HRR06's head sculpt on to it. However, I wanted to try the head sculpt on my World Box AT0203 body first. I was a bit fearful, that I would love the head sculpt on that body, because then I would have to get a second one... and I do! I love the proportions of this body better, and the color match is pretty much perfect to the pale WB body. The only issue now, is that I'll have to get another body because this one belongs to my Very Cool Miss Spetsnaz 1:6 female head sculpt. I don't mind switching heads on my larger figures/dolls to share bodies, but I don't want that for my smaller ones. More so if I want to display them (which I don't really want to ever do with my giant, heavy resin BJD). That's what I want for my tinier figures/dolls, so I need to get a second one for this head sculpt. I am not a huge fan of the MtM Barbie body, the tinier (than regular Barbie) feet bother me quite a lot. I also don't love Barbie's giant headedness in general, but I don't mind it too much on this doll, because she has a stunning face! DX
I got the MtM Barbie for a lot less than retail, so I don't mind just keeping it in-box. I don't own any clothes, nor have I sewn anything for the World Box body yet, so I just wrapped the body in pieces of PVC material I have stashed in my "maybe-i-can-use-this-somehow" pieces of scrap fabrics. I'm lazy, I could have made a quick set of undies. However, I am excited to make some clothes for this girl, once I get her a body of her own. It's going to be a pain in the gut finding one for what it originally retailed for, when tje body originally released last year. T__T;;
The head is a little large on the body, since the body is an actual 1:6 scale (action figure) body, and Barbie is not even close to those proportions, but I don't mind it too much. I do wish Barbie (as a doll line) got a smaller head, but I won't be holding my breath for that to happen, ever!

Just a few repetitive, craptastic quick photos of my Adorable Arts Sephiroth and Cloud Strife figures. I love Sephiroth, I wish they hadn't given him a side-glace, or at least given an optional head-sculpt, like they did with Cloud. I understand they gave Sephy his wing, but I can't say I wouldn't have preferred another head instead, or even multiple faceplates. His hair gets in the way of posing the head, unlike Mr. Terrible-Attitude-Strife, who has a very nice range of motion at the head. Sephy's luscious hair impedes any movement if any -- which is the case with most of the figures based on him at any scale, that have any movement whatsoever.
It was kind of a pain in the back, switching Sephy's arms and placing his wing on. I am not sure if it's intended to keep his arm lowered when he has the wing on. However, it can be done, so that's what I am keeping him like for a while. The wing is a bit heavy, so there's a support piece for it. Which I won't be using, because I know I'll lose it. However, I will keep the wing on for only a short while. I don't want to keep switching pieces, so I'll probably just display them the way they are now (default from box). I decided not to switch any parts on Cloud, because it was a bit annoying to do on Sephy. I know I always complain about lack of having optional parts, and now that I do, I don't want to switch them out. However, I am not a fan of how they decided to tackle the peg or the way the pieces attach. I can see it was a decent solution for such tiny figures, but it's annoying. It might just be an issue with my Sephy, and maybe it's smoother on other figs (maybe even on Cloud), but I am keeping them with the parts they have on now forever! lol!
I might switch the arms on Cloud someday, but I definitely want to not keep the wing on Sephy for a long time. I fear it might ruin the peg-hole in the long run without support -- I don't want that! These are adorable figues, as the series name implies. The Midgar background insert they come with is great for displaying them, or even taking crappy photos with, as I did. DX I'm very happy with these, I look forward to Vincent, and maybe Nanaki... I try not to collect Nanaki stuff, because I am a weirdo when it comes to animal-related toys. I am an animal lover, so anything that comes close to real animals or toys based on "realistic" animals, I avoid getting. They make me greatly depressed for some reason. Although I have always been tempted by Red XIII's figures, I always keep myself from getting any. Adorable Arts version of him, however, might be an exception, if they make one.

My February 2024 toy haul is here! Yay! Super happy with all these, of course over the moon with my Adorable Arts Sephys! As well as the tiny, tiny Sesshomaru hugcot! The Sasuke stuff is always welcomed; I am happy that I finally got one of those fancy acrylic panels, but sad I won't be seeing it, because it's sealed, and I'm a weirdo when it comes to sealed things... >___>;;; The Sasuke Colosseum fig I got from Amzn, and sadly the box is not mint. I got a few other prize figures I've been after for a long time (Len K.), and a double of the Araragi one, because I need doubles if not triples in my life... Lol! The Lulu acrylic stand has movable eyes, pretty cool! Also, super happy with the Artorias, tiny-chibified version of him! (:

I'm done with my GDToys Sesshomaru's "customizing." I might rework his bangs someday, in the not too far away future. I suck at styling my own hair, so it's no surprise I would suck at tiny headed 1:6 action figure's bangs. However, for now, I am super happy with him. There are many things that could be improved, but my shaky hands are not something that will be improving, ever! Lol! DX
My current cell phone's camera hates me, and I struggle with it as well as setting lights. These are terrible, there's so much noise. The other older than dust phone's camera, seems to want to make everything look washed out. However, this one adds so much noise and sh1t, for no reason. It's frustrating. I won't be getting a new camera. I want to, but I don't want to waste money when I know I suck at taking photos anyway...
Regardless of the suckyness, I am super happy with my customized Sessho! I felt like Sephy was my most beautiful 1:6 figure I owned, but this one is a very close second. Too bad I can't do it justice, painting wise, as well as photography wise. I suck! T___T;; I added a comparison, because a friend wanted to see the progress from the GDToys prototype, to the in-box factory paint apps, to my struggle to re-style his bangs. A one inch hair straightener might be too small for a human, but too freaking large for a 1:6 head sculpt's bangs! >.<;;

My GDToys 97005 (Sesshomaru) Son Of The Demon Dog Repaint, so far. I am pretty happy with him, I just need to restyle his bangs, and then I'll be done with him (for now). I suck at tiny things, my hands are definitely getting shakier with old freaking age! I already had a terrible shaky hand, but holey freaking heck hole, it's like I put my hands on a full speed blender, instead of steadying them on a flat steady table!
My older than dust cellphone died, and my "current" phone's battery was drained, so I took these with an even older phone, and they are obviously museum quality photos. However, I am super excited to finally complete this, so I wanted to take photos as I ruined the doming process, as usual! It took just a few hours over the course of three days, to repaint him and only with acrylic paints, so no sealing in between layers, which is why I love acrylics. I didn't want to go too hyperplastic with him, because the head sculpt is not, and Sesshomaru is not hyper-realistic either. I wanted his demon markings to look a bit textured, kind of like birth marks or tattoos, rather than paint or make up. I am in love with this head, I hope I can get a second one. I feel he would make a gorgeous Alucard (Castlevania). I missed my chance when he first released to get one parted out, so I am hoping I'll be able to get a second head sculpt at a not too exaggerated price. I kind of sorely regret not trying harder to get a loose HS, now that I' think about it more seriously.
I just need to fix his bangs... those are going to be a pain in the gut-hole! DX

Got a few more toys from Amazn, recently. The mermaids (hrr06) took forever to be shipped; I'm guessing they are a lot more popular than I had anticipated. I waited for what seemed like an eternity and beyond, for them to have them available for purchase. After stalking the sales page for years, then another eternity for them to finally send me a shipping notification, after finally ordering them! I thought they would pull an S.H.Figuarts Sasuke Uchiha on me; a few years ago, they kept asking me if I still wanted the first version of that tiny figure I had pre-ordered on day one! Then told me after months of waiting patiently and keeping my order, "sorry, we are no longer carrying that figure." I wasted so much time and patience on that one figure from them, that I was fed up with Amzn. I even stopped getting other things from them for a long time, just out of frustation more than anything.
Long story longer, I got my mermaids! I got two so I can unbox one, but I wouldn't mind an army of this doll, she's stunning! I fell in love with these the instant I saw a glimpse of them last year, if I recall correctly. I haven't been fortunate to get the opened mouth (HRR05) one yet, but I hope I'll snag at least one of those as well. I'll probably get a MTM body for her, but I don't mind her on the mermaid one for a while. I might even try her on an action figure body some day! I also got myself more Nanana Surprise Minis Series 2 dolls, hoping to get Paula, but no dice! I got two repeats!! Holey freaking h3ll hole, I'm starting to lose hope! I might try once more though...not because I am a hoarder, I just really want Paula but not at eBy prices! DX

My first "official" toy-haul for 2024 got here a few days ago, but I was too busy trying to prepare my Sessho's head sculpt for repainting him, that I kind of forgot to resize these photos. DX Also, shipping... that was so ridiculous! For no reason!

Also got an Eren Yeager Final Season Hugcot mini figure, which I am very happy with. All these figs I am super glad I got. The FFVII keychains, the Sasuke stuff. The Byakuya look up figure is adorable! The only thing I am pissed with, is the freaking extra-mega-large shipping box. For absolutely no reason whatsoever! *sigh* There went over $100USD thrown down the drain, for literal no reason. I'm super angry at that, I probably won't recover from it soon enough in a literally sense, and monetarily.

A few close ups of my GDToys GD97005 (Sesshomaru) default face paint apps. And a few full-bodied photos as well. I am definitely going to be repainting him. He is a lovely looking figure, and if I hadn't seen the prototype, I would feel he is wonderful as he is. However, and just like with Game Toys Sephy, this isn't what I wanted my Sesshomaru to look like. As far as paint apps go, the head sculpt is still far more beautiful IRL, more so than I can manage to do it justice, if any. I didn't place his obi or shoulder armor piece, because I will be putting him back into his box as soon as I am done repainting him. I don't want to break/ruin somethng.
I don't believe my repaints are that great, but I know that I can make him look a bit more alive and less kind of empty on the inside. Lol! I feel like he is a beautiful looking figure as he is, in hand, but looks and photographs soulless. I've always felt that Sesshomaru was full of life, and looks so even in the anime. And despite being an anti-hero, he's kind of spirited and lively, if smug and quite full of himself (just how I like my beautiful fictional male characters!).
I tried restyling his bangs, but I don't feel I did that great of a job. I own a 1-inch hair straightener I use for wigs, but it's way too big and chunky for a tiny 1:6 head sculpt. More so for he bangs alone. I will have to try some other way. However, I wanted to have clear, "better" lighted photos of his default factory paints apps before I proceed. This is a cosplay-type of figure. GDToys doesn't have the license to make Sesshomaru, but he doesn't' look like Sessho in the anime, nor is this an illegal copy of any existing licensed figures. I would then own the licensed one and not this version. However, this is more along the lines of what Super Duck do, but with a body and not just a head and clothes kit. I am happy I got him, and I hope I can make him look closer to what I want my Sesshomaru to look like, without aiming for the protype. (:

Got myself a GDToys The Son Of The Tooth King - Dog Demon Swordman GD97005, 1:6 action figure. Also known as Sesshomaru in a more realistic stylization (cosplay, perhaps?). Lol! I have been tempted by GDToys figures in the past, but they seem to make mostly females, and I kind of don't actively look to collect female figures, unless I want to hybrid their heads on male bodies. I've also seen their paint apps to be extremely hit-or-miss, so I knew this Sesshomaru fig was going to probably not be as perfect as their prototype. However, in hand, he doesn't look as terrible as in my extreme close up of his face.
He's definitely not as perfect as the prototype, but I never expected him to be. I just thought this would be a good enough customizable figure, with great potential, based on one of my most favorite characters of all time (that isn't Sephiroth, but pretty close). I don't own that many figures based on him, because there are just not that many. The head sculpt in particular was what sold me to get this, I knew the paint apps weren't going to be anywhere near the prototype, but it's rare to see beautiful male anime-ish head sculpts in the 1:6 world. That are actually male, and not hybrid from dolls or females, etc. So, I had to have him, as a Christmas gift to myself (because I don't gift myself enough things all year round!). I also managed to get one with its own brown shipper! Yay!
I am still uncertain that I will be repainting him, but I knew that if he didn't look anything decent IRL, I could just attempt repainting him but still end up with all the other stuff to create my own Sessho custom figure. I did try a million years ago with a Noir De Rome Japanese fashion doll head sculpt, and a Volks Neo EB go body, but I never got far enough. I feel this one will be a close enough one for me. I'll definitely need to restyle the bangs, the hair is probably not the same as the prototype but it's certainly not as fluffy, and that's not just the styling. I'll take more "decent" than just flash photos of him, once I attempt restyling his bangs, to be closer to the prototype, because these are definitely not even an attempt on GDToy's part. DX

A few extra-repetitive photos of my MYou Bettina male, who's my fan-art version of Ken Kaneki. He's a 28cm-ish doll. I took a few shots of him and my BanDai Japanese bath-bombs trading figures. I got the full set of the Naruto Shippuden ones, thankfully that meant getting one Sasuke. Unfortunately, I got doubles of Sakura and Naruto... >_>;;
I also got doubles in the Sanrio versions, and two of those were doubles of the two bags I got from the same set. Luckily for me, it was Kuromi. Lol! I did get the ones I wanted the most from each set (like Pochacco), but doubles of all! It kind of sucks, but that is the nature of trading toys. Which leaves me thinking that I might get more of these bath bombs trading toys, unless they are from licenses I absolutely must get (like based on anime ones, or game ones, which I seriously doubt they'll do).

So, these are figures that released last year, all throughout 2023. I was just waiting to be able to justify shipping 20-30USD figures, by DHL... That kept going, until it was already too big of a shipment, and too expensive to justify at all! lol!
Long story longer, I was waiting for HLJ to have a lower shipping option, during the holiday season, but I kind of ended up paying more, than if I had shipped way earlier! I also missed out on getting Cloud Bring Arts, because they never seem to send me in-stock notifications. *sigh* That was frustrating as all heck, and now I am left empty handed, and I'll probably have to get him from SE's USA shop, which charges an eye off the face for s/h. T___T;;;
From far left, to bottom front row: BanDai BLEACH SOLID AND SOULS Byakuya Kuchiki Prize Figure; BanDai Entry Grade Uchiha Sasuke (Naruto Shippuden) Model Kit x2; BanDai Naruto Memorable Saga Sasuke Uchiha Prize Figure; below BanDai NARUTO VIBRATION STARS UCHIHA SASUKE II Prize Figure; BanDai NARUTO Shippuden EFFECTREME UCHIHA ITACHI Prize Figure x2; Naruto Shippuden Uchiha Sasuke Figure (TV Anime 20th Anniversary Costume) Prize Figure x2; BanDai NARUTO Shippuden PANEL SPECTACLE Sasuke Uchiha Prize Figure x2; BanDai Naruto Shippuden Vibration Stars Sasuke Uchiha Version A Prize Figure; below BanDai Naruto Shippuden Vibration Stars Sasuke Uchiha III Prize Figure.

BanDai Bikkura Tamago Sanrio Characters Funyumaru x2, not in top picture.
Most of these are Sasuke prize figures, the ones I don't have doubles on here, I already received in previous shipments. Or, I have still to ship. DX I am super happy with all these, and very excited to build the Sasuke model kit, despite it being entry grade. It looks very nice! I also got a few bath-bombs, because one has a Sasuke, and the others are so adorable, Sanrio characters I couldn't pass by! I did get a full set of the Naruto bath-bomb charters, but I had to get six, and got two of Sakura and Naruto! I wish I had gotten two Sasuke instead. I am also happy that World Box's body is a decent match for my Very Cool Miss Spetsnaz head sculpt. I hope the photos of that, don't send this to the dark side... like it matters. lol!

My December 2023 toy haul got here a few days ago, finally. It only took forever and a half... so much for express dhl...that cost though...DX
From top left to bottom: BanPresto NARUTO Shippuden World Collectible Figure Sasuke Uchiha (Game-prize) Figure; Good Smile Company POP UP PARADE Silent Hill 2 Red Pyramid Thing Complete Non-Scale Figure X2; FuRyu Minna no Kuji Touken Ranbu Online Last Get Prize Hikkake Mikazuki Munechika Matteri ver. (Game-prize) Non-Scale Figure; Kamio Japan NARUTO 4 Size Sticker Childhood; Arma Bianca NARUTO Shippuden New Illustration Sasuke Uchiha Past and Present ver. 2-part Wire BIG Acrylic Keychain ; Arma Bianca NARUTO Shippuden New Illustration Sasuke Uchiha A Past and Present ver. Acrylic Sticker; Arma Bianca NARUTO Shippuden New Illustration Sasuke Uchiha B Past and Present ver. Acrylic Sticker; Ensky PAPER THEATER NARUTO Shippuden PT-340 Sasuke, PT-342 Itachi & PT-125N Naruto vs Sasuke; B-SIDE LABEL CAPCOM x B-SIDE Sticker CAPCOM 40th Resident Evil.
I am super happy with everything, the Sasuke Uchiha acrylic stickers in particular, they are so cute! I am also loving the PUP Red Pyramid Thing figures. I was hoping they would be in-scale with the PUP Bubble Headed Nurse, so I could try to get a second nurse to display both, but it seems they are the same exact height, so not in-scale with each other, sadly for me. T__T;; I am tempted though, to get some 1:6 scale PH statues, now that I have this tiny one and a double to unbox one. I'll probably go for something that's not as expensive as Gecco, I really wanted one of them, but I couldn't justify them. Now they are a little eye off the face! DX I was able to get a second "last one get" Minnano Kuji Hikkake figure of Mikazuki Munechika. I loved these hikkake figures so much, I had hoped the other series would be of similar size, but the Demon Slayer ones seem a lot smaller (one Giyu is the only other one I own). I got all the 1st Minna no Kuji ones for the Touken Ranbu Online releases, except the ultra-mega rare winking Shishio. I wanted to get doubles of all, but hadn't gottent Mikazuki's last-one until now. So, I'm very happy, as well as with teen WCF Sasuke, I need the child version was well, but these seem ultra-mega-ultima-level-of-rarer. I also love the RE sticker, I didn't read how large it was. I was surprised at how tiny it is. Story of my life! Lol! (:

I got myself a few more trading dolls this year. I purchased them last year, bu they just got here yesterday (thanks to Amzn slow-poke service, and the obvious Holiday season slowing everything down during these times). I am in-love with the NAGI Exchange Student Series Lanlan Lang boy I got! I really wanted one of the three boys, and I got one! I feel so lucky, I rarely get any of the ones I really want from trading toys, whenever there are few that I would rather not get. Those are usually the ones I end up getting! Lol! With this series, I really didn't want to get any of the girls (they are beautiful, but I rather own mostly boys, if the series has a mixed release). I wish they had made this one an all boy series, but they made the "plainer," everyday looking one the all boy series, instead of these one. Regardless, I am thinking of getting the other two boys from this series, because Lanlan is super cute, and I love the look of the other two as well!
I also got my first Penny Box Antu Tidal Secret Language Mermaid Series doll, she is stunning IRL, I got "Shimmer." I imagined these dolls would be mind-blowingly beautiful in person, more so because I have seen what the previous series are like in person (I own four centaurs and one OG PB Antu release). These mermaids are incredibly beautiful in person, I am so glad I was able to get one. I am not sure if I'll get more, I wish the one I got had a jellyfish on her hair (I love jellyfishes!), but otherwise she's so beautiful! I love her, but I already knew I would, regardless of which one I got from this set. They are all so pretty. (:
I also attempted to get a Paula Purrfect from the Nanana Surprise Minis, because I've had no luck finding her in stores. Unfortunately, I didn't get her. I wish I had known they would lower their cost, I would have gotten at least four at the time. I'm probably not meant to have her, but I'll keep trying! T__T;;

A few terrible photos of one of my two Taito NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139… Spooky Chibi Boy Nier Prize Figure. I got two specifically so I could unbox one, without feeling awful about it. Because I am a weirdo, and don't unbox most things unless I get two of them. DX
He's supper cute! I love him, I wish they made a version of slightly-older-brother NieR as well. I also wished he was a bigger figure. He's under 4-inches tall. I kind of wish all these chibi-fied figures were much larger. I know they would be way more expensive, but I like larger static figures. These are too tiny (IMHO). Although, I still will keep getting more of them, if they release more based on licenses I love. I'm probably going to add some shading to his faux-joints, because I feel like they would pop more if they were shaded. He's a crane prize figure, so his paint apps are not the best, but he's a nice looking figure for what he is, and we rarely get many brother version of NieR figures anyway (I know Automata is the popular NieR game, but I still love the OG NieR, even if I was not a fan of father NieR being the only option we got a century ago this side of the world, when that one released).
I was happy when I saw that we were finally getting to play as brother NieR here in the west and was hoping we would see more figures based on brother version of NieR. I own all of them so far, although it was a pain getting this one. Due to it being cancelled once -- my pre-order of him was cancelled, but the whole release got cancelled once as well (I know Taito and FuRyu love doing that for some reason). So, yes, it was an ordeal getting this version of NieR, let alone two of them. I Love him regardless, he's a precious little figure! (:

My November 2023 toy haul got here yesterday. I am supper upset, that I didn't request to have these items shipped in a smaller box posible. Because I know I could have saved at least 30USD, had they shipped them in a smaller box!! Fault's on me! DX Despite the box being more massive than it needed to be, they still manage to ruin my Byakuya's SHFiguarts' box, which I am pretty much more irked about, then the actual fact they could have sent everything in a much smaller box. There was absolutely no excuse for anything getting damaged, in such a huge box, more so when the shipper has zero damage. >__<;;

I have also included my steel case version of the RE Dead Island film, just because it got here a few days ago as well, as the Sasuke BanDai Namco Legends figures I got all from Amzn. These tiny figures are not that great, but the obsessive Sasuke fanatic in me, must have all! Lol! I love the steel case though; the film is okay. (:

My October toy haul finally arrived! Yay! I was finally able to get a grail for me, that I've been after for a long, long time. It is by a Chinese company, that made figures for their Chinese market only. They were unlicensed, but they weren't making copied products, only their own original sculpts based on licenses they didn't hold. They are no longer around, and this figure is from 2014, and quite huge for such a figure. I wish Nendoroids were as big (Sasuke Nendo released in 2017, so no, not a copy of that), or at least Q Poskets were this big. But then they would be $100USD, instead of $20-30. I wasn't able to get it back when it was released, so it took a whole lot of waiting, but finally, one of my friends saw one and asked right away if I still wanted it, even if it was opened! I wish it was still sealed, but oh well, I can't pass this opportunity, since I don't know if I'll ever come across this figure again in my lifetime. If I do, and it's sealed, I'll get it again! Lol!
From far left top, to fron right front row: Banpresto Nisio Isin Anime Project Monogatari Series Second Season Chibi KyunChara "Oni Monogatari" Koyomi Araragi (Game-prize) Non-Scale FIgure; Good Smile POP UP PARADE Attack on Titan Eren Yeager Suit Ver. Complete Figure; Sekiguchi U-NOA QULUTS Azurite Jinemama Ver. Complete Doll; Penguin Parade InuYasha Petanko Acrylic Keychain vol.1 Sesshomaru; NARUTO Shippuden VIBRATION STARS -UCHIHA SASUKE- III (Game-prize) Non-Scale Figure; Chaoercomics Non-Scale Sasuke Uchiha Deformed Non-Scale Figure; BANDAI SPIRITS Figuarts ZERO BORUTO Kizuna Relation "BORUTO NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS" Sasuke Uchiha Non-Scale Figure; SR-GYM "Resident Evil: Death Island" Cut Out Acrylic Stand Leon Scott Kennedy; CS.FRONT "Attack on Titan" The Final Season Clear File 01 Eren.
I also got my first ever U-Noa doll! It's the one produced by Sekiguchi, but I can't say I don't love the idea that it's not resin. I wish it was a head sculpt with inset eyes, so that it would have that OG U-Noa Azurite feeling, but beggars can't be choosers. I also wish it was one of the more roker-themed ones, with clothes that are closer to t-shirt and jeans, or even better straight rock/punk-ish, but I will settle for this one. Since, this is the only one I'll probably ever be able to get -- I don't believe I have ever seen them on my regular Japanese retailers before, I don't feel I'll get to see another for pre-order as easily ever again. He is a beautiful doll, and I love him, but I wish his clothes or at least his hair was darker, in theme. I love all the Sasuke stuff; I hope to be able to get a second of the Figuarts Zero to unbox one. I already have a second Vibration Stars III waiting in Japan to be shipped. My Eren Suit PUP has a right eye that's bigger than the left... I don't know how to feel about that...But I do love the clear file. I should really stop hoarding those. DX
Also added three Nanana Surprise Minis Series 2, I was able to find locally! I got one from series one from Amzn, back when those released, but I never saw them locally. I fear I completely missed out on getting CJ Cuddles, and so I just got the three from this series I really wanted, before I can't find them in stores anymore. I am also eyeing the kitty one... we'll see, if I get her as well.

My September 2023 toy haul finally arrived! Yay! It only took forever and a half, but not due to not spending a fortune on S/H but mostly because of the shop's struggles... flipping frustrating! T___T;;;
From far left to right front row: ThreeZero Sasuke Uchiha 1:6 Scale Action Figure; Taito NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139… Spooky Chibi Boy Nier (Game-prize) Non-Scale Figure; Taito Nendoroid Petite Bakemonogatari: Koyomi Araragi Prize Figure; Squre Enix Play Arts Kai Kingdom Hearts III [Riku DX Edition] Non-Scale Action Figure; BanDai Ichiban Kuji NARUTO Shippuden Shinobi no Kizuna B Prize Sasuke Uchiha Figure (Game-prize) Non-Scale Figure. Front Row: TwinCre NARUTO Shippuden Vintage Series Acrylic Stand Sasuke Uchiha; Bell House Clear File Attack on Titan Eren & Jean Together with Dog ver.
I got the ThreeZero 1:6 Sasuke action figure from a USA retailer, but he arrived just a few days earlier than this haul, which just got here yesterday. So, that's why I included him here. He's better than ZenCreations Sasuke (which I really wanted, because of the version of Sasuke that one is, but his face and proportions!!!). However, this one has seriously far apart eyes, making his face look so much wider. Which is not accurate to the anime nor manga, that's the only downside. He's cute anyway, even if not one hundred percent accurate. I'm also super happy I got this version of Sasuke's Masterlise figure, I'm still missing the normal eyes version from the other kuji set. I am super happy with all these, particularly the Sasuke figures, and Riku! He turned out beautiful! I hope I can afford a second one someday! Also got another "grail," one of the many Nendoroid Petite Koyomi Araragi prize figures. And a second Spooky young NiEr so I can unbox one! Lol! I'm also adding my Simon's Toys Liroro girl. She's super cute. (:
