I usually ring parcelforce and ask for the customs reference to pay online, rather than wait for the post. Depending on the speed of the mail I get stuff a day or two faster doing it that way.

Yes it is, but they don't always mark down. You may want to mention a markdown in the comments section of the order.
Yeah, I figured. Although I am buying the estival verses nyuu nyuu packs (both ps4 and vita) just for the figures

Even worse. Thought this would be like that Magnolia figure I saw on AmiAmi.

I know, it's why I've been shopping almost exclusively from HLJ now. Also the Private warehouse is great for someone like me who travels a lot.

Never bought anything from HLJ, my first will be a Darth Vader coming in April, then I'll see how it goes.

OK Amatsukaze ordered I can live with Ami-Ami for once. Waiting on I-401 nendos to become available again.
Edit: Up on HLJ again now grabbed. Crisis averted. Now to convince myself Re is worth 8k yen.

I really like it! After the site refurbishment and the new private Warehouse stuff I feel they are the ones to beat in the arena.

When I first read about the private warehouse I thought it looked pretty cool, to be honest.
Good luck.

We picked up quite a few new people in OT3, myself included. Here at the start of OT4 would seem like a great time to once again pass around MFC friend requests.
You can find my profile here. Feel free to add me, and I'll be adding others who want in.
By the way, is there an official MFC NeoGAF group?

I need to update mine, there are a crapton of stuff coming and I'm still with pre-january haul.
Good luck! I believe in you!

I try to keep mine up to date, though I only drop stuff in the "ordered" queue once it's paid for and in the mail.
Getting behind on cataloging on MFC can be a pain to catch back up.
Thanks i mentioned it in the comments hopefully they humor me.
I ordered myself a Char Aznable Ichiban Kuji Prize figure as well, fingers crossed it's not been bought in store.

In by the hairs of my chinny chin chin!
Congratulations!
Yeah, I can imagine. I had the same problem with some sites that managed stuff that I watched.
Hopefully it's a reasonable mark down too.
One time they shipped an order in a large box and valued it at 1,000yen. Customs ripped that thing open looking for the contraband, luckily nendos aren't on the illegal drug list yet
So! Now that the new thread is under way, here is my WonFes list. This mostly off the list of stuff that was revealed/announced during the event so stuff is still missing. Thank you again Devil Tatoyaki for compiling it.
I am undecided on the Arpeggio figmas (I like them but unless they come with amazing accessories, meh) and the new SAO figmas (same as Arpeggio, accesories or bust). Not pictured are bishoujo Tali, Black Canary, Wasp and Raven (announced before the event), the figma Panzer IV (still not painted damn it!), nendoroid Vader and Stormtrooper (will buy multiples of this one, it's just too good).
The Racing Miku 2015 figma will be bought if GSC sells a mecha-unicorn to go along with her.
Max Factory's Sorceress looks great but I already own the Megahouse Trinity. IF they would make the other two I would definitely get them. If not...I will most likely pass.
I'm also not counting the Snow Miku and Re-class since those have already been ordered!
All in all it was a great Wonder Festival. Next one is in 6 months!
This is great!
Also adding pictures of my display shelves. They are unsorted dusty and in the process of being taken apart as I will be moving in about a month or so. Oh god, having to rebox all this and then carry it over to the new place (O_O)
I'm still unsure about which type of shelves I want for the apartment but I'm slowly turning towards Billys because of their polyvalence.

I recently relocated my Gretzky, I think he's enjoying his current placement.
This is great!

Agreed about mecha unicorn. I was planing on giving racing miku a white figma horse but a racing unicorn would be soo much better
The rate some people in here buy them i wouldn't be surprised if the get put down as contraband eventually. Nendoroid smuggling will be big business in 2016.
Still waiting on my Nendoroid Snake

FigureGAF |OT4|Smuggled Nendoroids for sale, not opened/box damaged/slight smell
Oh man Figma Kiryu, Nendoroids Raiden, Stormtrooper, Vader and MM Link. Expensive times ahead.
I agree. Let's keep it.
But you stopped yourself. What a shame.It's true. I almost bought that 20k Yamato Poison last night.
