Meh, the collectors edition of Spice & Wolf sold super quick, just learnt that I didn't secure stock. Though in a bizarre twist they are reprinting it because of demand, so much for only 2000 copies printed I guess. :rolleyes:

It'd be nice to think it might improve but given the market freaked out when everyone just re-iterated what we already knew I'm not sure. Maybe if the Bank of Japan can ever get it's currency weakening plans to work it'll help offset things. Yeah that Maki is pretty awesome, I'm not even a Love...

Looks nice :) Todays currency slide has me somewhat concerned about my pre-orders though, might be time to sit back and hold off on all but the most essential. Having said that a few weeks ago I did succumb to this Love Live! School Idol Festival - Nishikino Maki - 1/7 (Alter)

Season 2 as well I hope?

The worst thing about this is how unnecessary it seemed. Someone makes a speech saying we can't have one thing without another, repeating exactly what everyone prior to them has said and suddenly the markets all panic? For people that are meant to read trends and look into the future they sure...

I find this IS2 situation baffling. We all knew it'd be held back because of TBS, but to think they'd consider it the show to go for a super expensive release is mad. I've bought some AoA shows, and their recent tendency to split things up is somewhat maddening, but I can accept it to a certain...

Agreed, IS2 is not something that I'd consider warrants a collectors or premium release. Very odd choice on their part. -edit- Just seen the price in the Overseas News thread, holy crap, gotta be some licence BS going on with this one. I mean we all knew it'd be delayed due to the hold back TBS...

I always like looking over collections pics, party to see what cool stuff people have and partly to spot any thing I also have in my collection :)

Looking really nice, I'm still a long way from being able to display my collection at the moment, but I'm thinking of the best way to do it. A few wall shelves might be a good idea in addition to a display cabinet or three.

Wow that sucks, I've not heard of a manufacturer contacting companies and telling them not to sell overseas before. I could understand it perhaps if they had some kind of deal with a US distributor but otherwise it seems like they are just losing out on sales and on customer good will.

hehe, I think everyone runs into space issues sooner or later. Mikan's looking like she should turn out nicely, lets hope it won't take them a year to get her painted this time.

Looks like that thread is still being updated, added another 6 items to my wish list to keep an eye on them. Hopefully they'll be spread out as right now I've only got 1 item per month (well some months have 2 nendoroids but they are cheap) except for November where everyone is clearly trying to...

Summer Wonfes is here, My Figure Collection has a nice list of all the new reveals and updates http://myfigurecollection.net/blog/28951 My wish list just increased by 6 - R.I.P wallet

Re: Overseas Anime News & Announcements Well, that's an interesting clash of titles I'll be picking up in November :)

Hmm, dunno, If I had to guess it's because some out of stock stuff is actually unobtainable out of print stuff. Last thing they want to do is take money and then have to refund it.

I know right, I remember watching the rates with figure pre-orders to pay because they'd dropped below 160 and I was hoping on a rebound before my payment deadline expired.

Looking good, I have a few Sabers on order at the end of the year, getting them all would bankrupt me though :D I've got a few months where I'm not expecting anything now, just have a Koneko http://myfigurecollection.net/item/331693 in the post at present. I've decided Parcelforce can do some...

Well the US site price rises are not rises, but currency fluctuations, but looking at it I do have to consider if I want to switch my orders over to the UK side. Right now paying in dollars is cheaper just about for Funimation & Sentai sets, but as you say the AoA sets don't look like a good...

Some good news, just visited UP1 and they are saying no price changes.

The thing that really bugs me is that both campaigns did quite a poor job providing solid information. One side saying there were benefits to being in the EU, the other saying we can make our own fairer better laws. But what exactly, specifically were the benefits? What protection will we lose...
