Hi all!
Sharing my loot pictures for the first time here @ MFC!
Shoutout to MsNix for "nagging" me to do this :p
Well, here you go. (note to self: invest in a good camera. In the meantime, excuse the crappy pics quality from my camera phone):
This is my latest and biggest single order from AmiAmi (10 items). EMS shipping was 11,360 yen to Australia.
Out of the box pics:
Note: Koto's Batman, MF's Catherine and Alter's Saber Alter (far bottom right, still in paper wrapping, under nendo Nano) in the pic above are from HS, JUNGLE and BiJ respectively. The rest are from the big AmiAmi order.
All the older release items in the pic above are from AmiAmi's preowned:
item #5438 (Item:A / Box:A)
item #78615 (Item:A / Box:B)
item #5443 (Item:A / Box:B)
item #13587 (Item:A / Box:B)
item #12048 (Item:A / Box:A)
All the pre-owned items look good! Thank god! I was worried a bit because of other users' recent negative experince w/ AmiAmi pre-owned items (mostly B item condition).
I haven't opened them yet so I can't say for sure but at a closer inspection from outside the box, they all look MISB. Box and figures look clean (no dust), figures still wrapped in plastic and still in their blister.
Moving on to some more preliminary unboxing for my other recent orders below:
From left to right:
item #91520 (MISB Plamoya sale)
item #484 ('Unopened' Mandarake)
item #3671 and item #13123 (MISB both eBay)
item #77756 (MISB HS)
item #3236 ('Unopened' Mandarake)
item #27627 (MISB from another user here @ MFC: figureitout)
item #695 ('Unopened' Mandarake)
item #64020 (MISB Anime-Export)
item #100729 (MISB BiJ)
item #34166 ('B' Item Jungle)
item #113865 (MISB Jungle)
Gotta say I'm really impressed with Mandarake, BiJ, Jungle and Plamoya's packaging. All are carefully bubble-wrapped and padded with newspaper or more bubble wrap to fill the empty spaces in the shipping boxes.
At this point, I was thinking about unboxing more but looking at the mess all over my place (see pic below), I decided otherwise.
Below are some more shipping boxes I have yet to open. They contain pre-order items (no pre-owned) from AmiAmi, HS or HLJ dating back to March/April 2012. Left the boxes out in the open in the living room because no more shelf/ cabinet to store into.
And, this is why I don't have anymore spare shelf/cabinet:
Note#1: Forgot to take pics of more unopened shipping boxes in my 'storage' room (will add later).
Note#2: To top it all off, below are 2 unopened XL boxes I received from HLJ's holiday shipping campaign back in Christmas last year, dimension is slightly bigger than the AmiAmi box I reviewed above. (Metcard for size reference :p)
Thanks for reading this longer than expected blog about my loot!
*I'm gonna go in a corner now and think about the money 'wasted' for all this and how to eventually display all my collection*
