Anime Figures I Love/Maybe

As I said before, I'm not a collector. I don't have the energy nor the motivation to get every single thing. I can be satisfied with having my favorite characters plastered on something like a notebook or have something that combined either two or more characters on it.

This is mainly a wishful listing of what I either will want in my collection and the maybe section where I'm indecisive and can't have but would love in my collection. For the latter, I really do like the figure but I don't know if I want to take it. Again, I am not planning a roomful. Perhaps a one detolf full at least in terms of space but that's all. I only have a bookshelf that I am planning to put my Gunpla and boxes including my various faceplates and jewelry but that's about it.

Now, this post may or may not be updated as times go on but regardless, don't expect a long list since while I do like admiring figures, very rarely I want a figure in my collection unless it caught my attention. And of course, it has to do with my favorite series.

I have a major preference for a five to seven inches figure. I don't like my figures too small, just palm-sized is enough. I don't have enough space for statues especially since my parents hadn't decluttered.

Now, I am looking for figures from major figure manufacturers. I do want to make it my goal to have at least one of each major figure from well-known categories. As for preferences, I do have a special liking for Good Smile Company and Banpresto. I'm usually drawn to those lines. As a whole, I do like figures with poses that look beautiful, unique, and awesome. I like statues but too bad, I don't have space for them.

It isn't a goal to get at least one figure from every line imaginable. I do like seeing these figures and windowshopping. Hell, I like to window shop figures before I even choose to begin collecting figures. I'm pretty sure even anime fans who don't collect anime figures like to look at them because they look good.

Heck, compared to expensive sculptors like Sideshow Collectibles and Quantum Mechanix, anime figures looked downright affordable by comparison. It's not by much but at least anime figures are known to the world. I didn't even know Sideshow and Quantum Mechanix even existed until I learn about them through their figures. Certainly, they have other wares just like the major anime figure manufacturing industry that is of affordable price. Good Smile is launching a new line called Pop Up Parade precisely to tackle those who are not willing to shell out too much. Banpresto is famous for its prize figures; Q Posket is a popular example, considering they are getting more figures into that line like Evangelion and Jojo.

Regardless of what category, all I just want is quality.

And I pick what I want.

This is just the wishlist. A figure on here is already preordered and that's because I fell in love so much I need to have it in my possession. You'll know which.

Want

Germany, help!

Yes, I do want to have a Hetalia figure in my collection, specifically a character. Don't care who. While England and Romano are my faves, I still like other characters too. I do like Japan, Germany, England, and America Nendoroids but Italy ignites the same feeling I saw my beloved Usopp figure.

Of note here, the recent ones won't be the original clothes. From what I could gather, it's a merchandise license issue since Hetalia began as webcomic just like One Punch Man. Which is why England and Japan are getting new Nendoroid designs because they were originally World Twinkle, not World Stars as we are in now. Hey, there are two Englands now and I'm happy!

Just look at her!

I love this so much and I need it in my collection. I love Riza and she's a favorite. I rarely see Winry figures nowadays but it's more likely I'll see Riza as a figure than any of the ladies in FMA. 

Ah, I just love this.

Just like my cousin who wants a Fire Emblem's Lucina figma, I want an Aigis figma. It's probably the only figma I want. Unlike wanting just two Nendoroids, I only want one figma and that's Aigis. I do like Figmas but I really like Aigis so I must have her.

I want to live!

I love this moment so much and it's in my favorite arc too!

Maybe

Just because I have a mixed attitude to Disney in later years does not mean I hate it. I grew up with Disney and I will criticize decisions and poor stories they made. As a rule, I refuse to get Frozen merch of any kind. Get me that and I'll give it to my little niece. Any figure you'll give me, I'll sell it.

While my faves are the classic Princesses - hey, Safiya Nygaard made it clear she loves Snow White up to getting a Funko Pop and traditionally visiting the Wishing Well in her Disneyland visits with Tyler - and Alice, I don't mind the Disney Renaissance. I don't hate Pinnochio either.

I don't hate the Q Posket line but I prefer that over Funko any day of the week. Just look at Vanessa!

Q Posket is just expressive enough and relatively inexpensive choice. I mean it is supposed to be a prize figure from a crane game but prize figures can be good in its own right.

While Q Posket does have some kind of presence due to its IPs (Disney, Harry Potter, Marvel, DC, One Piece, etc), it doesn't exactly have the presence as Funko.

Any of the above would be fine in my collection but I'm not in a hurry.

Not necessarily but I wouldn't mind having two figures that accompanied each other.

I have so many Zoro and Luffy figures to choose from that I have no idea what to choose.

I am a major fan of the Zosan pairing so I am planning to get something that has something plastered on them. As detailed here, hopefully, there are more choices I can choose from when I go to Japan. It doesn't necessarily have to be a figure but I do want something similar in case I see something like this.

Whatever color.

As much as I love this moment, I don't know if I can take this. It's a moment I love but I just don't know if I should or should not take this. Be it whatever color, I just don't know.

This is a maybe. I like the figure once I saw it but I am indecisive about it. Unlike the section above which I knew my immediate feelings are, this is just indecisive.

Maybe it's my demi self, but I didn't feel sexual energy even though it supposed to be a sexual pose. I can see it and I do like the figure but I don't feel the sexual energy.

Maybe it's not hentai pose enough? And I don't need to see hentai figures...

I like Hibari. I rarely ever see Reborn figures anymore but I hope to see more figures. Seriously, it's so rare to find any new or pre-owned Reborn figures that the only figures that I can find immediately are the Nendoroids and that's it.

Similar to such, I would love a Hikaru no Go figure but considering I found a Sai scale figure... Yeah...

Hopefully, they are oldies that can be found if I just scour Akiba and other nerd spots just for it. I'm pretty sure I can find the manga just fine but the merch will be lowered.

Admiration but Won't Get It
Would Get If Significantly Cut In Price
While Still In Good Condition
But Won't Hold Out On It
Given its value and rarity

I love Persona 3 and when I saw this figure, I fell in love with it in an instant. But even now, it's well over my typical price for figures. And I don't buy that many figures. 

I love this because it's so badass and I would gladly display it. I just love Thanatos, okay!? Orpheus and Thanatos are the first Personae I ever saw.

I always wanted a Godoka figure and I would love a scale figure because she's a god and she deserves that honor.

I love the OG Pokeani G.E.M. figures. Any of this will be fine in my collection but I would love the Ash surrounded by Pikachu and the Misty figure the most.

Since these are my favorite G.E.M figures, I'm pretty sure these are the only ones I want.
