hey riolulz i always wounder if you had a LJ account. =)

Hi!! Yes I do! I just added you :D

Nice figures =D

I wish I could afford all those kid figures. I'm trying to find some of the latest sets but everyone is charging full price like $7-$8 for one kid which I find expensive. I need to research buying box sets.

I like the way you display your Waza figures but the photos seem kinda dark. I want the Pansage!

Cool Pansage kids too, you must have all of them.

I like your Iris collection shelf! I kinda wanna start my own but I'll be picky with what I add, I'm having trouble finding shelf space.

Also, I have a question, how do you keep your figures from getting dusty? Do you dust them often? It would seem like a huge chore if you had to manually remove each figure to dust.

[riolulz]

I buy boxes, I'll DM you the site I tend to use!
Yeah the lighting there isn't so great :C

I don't dust very often,hey never seem to get too dusty, but when I do, it really is a chore. The last time I did it, it was when I was moving room anyway, so I dusted them all as I took them down.

Oh I've heard of that shop, but buying direct Japan stuff intimidates me. I will experiment one day if there are enough in the set that I am interested in. It sucks though cause I want the Dragonite now and it sold out. I'm searching elsewhere as of now. Do you have a sales post for the ones you have extra of?

Hrm, I guess it would be alright, but my brother's shelves for some reason collect noticeable dust in about a month. My wood is lighter so it is much harder to tell. His is dark and its like...."you need to dust"

Thanks for the info!

I'm going to make a sales posts, I have about spares of half of the last few sets, but not all.
I buy directly from Japan A LOT, the only problem for me in the UK is custom charges as they've really cracked down, whereas they used to let things slip by.

This is the Takara Tomy gachapon set of gym badges! They're nice quality considering their size, the only thing that confuses me is that the set appears to based on Black and White but features Homika/Roxie?!

This is actually based on the Gym Leaders Ash fought in the Anime.

Do you collect only figures? I see your collection consists of only figures :o

[riolulz]

Oh yes it is! How could I ignore that haha! Thank you!

I do have a huge amount of plush but I'm going to be getting rid of them since I don't really like displaying them. But yeah my collection pretty much is just figures!

[eternal_rena]

I generally collect figures and TCG myself but I do have a good small number of plush, mainly those that I like and they are all smaller sized ones and they have to be Pokemon I actually collect. Lack of space so I need to be picky with which large plush I want XD; Figures are the only thing where I expand to other Pokemon for mini collections of mainly kids. I collect the Waza Museum series myself :D

[riolulz]

It's nice to hear of someone else collecting Waza museums!!!

[acidmimi]

Your collection is really awesome! Congrats on almost completing your riolu collection <# I actually have the newest riolu plush and he is great quality, so when you end up getting him you won't be dissapointed!

[riolulz]

Thank you! x2!
I'm glad to hear it doesn't disappoint!

[riolulz]

That sounds great thanks! I am in the UK though if that means it has to be higher or anything?

[riolulz]

Yeah that'd be great thanks! Payment has been sent!
