Collection Wants

[saturngrls]

This is a post of the Pokemon figures and collectibles that I am looking to add to my collection. I mostly collect Gallade and Ralts figures and collectibles, and I'm always on the lookout for any new collectibles, but I'm not always the quickest or luckiest when it comes to getting them. So I tend to miss alot of hard to find items. ^^;

I've seen other star toys figures before. They seem similar to poke studio figures. Both rare, expensive, elusive and beautiful. It's crazy how all these "unofficial" figures are so much cooler than any official Pokemon figures. I've found it very difficult to find these figures for pre order or purchase. And if you do find them it's impossible to know whats legit. Do you know of any reliable places to look for these kind of figures?

Officially, I've only found 2-legit sellers of StarToys Xing Chen Ge sculptures online:

https://g-a-c.myshopify.com/
http://shingeki.myshopify.com/

There is also a facebook for the second seller that you can access here:

I've chatted with them about possible Backorder options.

OMG! I can't unsee this! So many of these figures are stunning. I'm gonna HAVE to get a few of them. Thanks so much for sharing these sites with me. I would've never found them. Which ones do you already have? Pics? I have a few Poke Studios figures. I'm all about the Gen 1 starters family. They're timeless to me.

Honestly, I don't have any StarToys Xing Chen Ge sculptures yet. ^^;;
I did get a Poke Studios Waza Museum Bisharp figure for my best friend, but nothing for my collection yet.

I've been impressed with StarToys Xing Chen Ge sculpts, but my collection interests mainly resides with Gallades and Ralts. It wasn't until recent years that StarToys Xing Chen Ge started the Valentines series that caught my eye, but of course, I was late to discover the releases of the past two sculptures. I am keeping an eye on the sites and Facebook for the next release, and possibly to get back orders on the sold out versions.

I am also watching for online sales from owners who are looking to sell their pre-owned sculptures. Even damaged, I can make repairs to them myself, so any opportunity I am ready to pounce on.

Speaking of pouncing, if you like Charizard, you may want to pounce on this Pre-order before it sells out ^_^:Reply

Wow, the Gardevoir and Gallade figure is beautiful :o

[saturngrls]

Yes, a definite want! :D

[zorroark]

Those sculptures sell from Taobao, so if there's a taobao agent in your country/city you could try ordering through them?

[saturngrls]

I didn't find the sculptures while searching on Taobao.
I don't think there is an agent where I live. I live in the USA.

[zorroark]

Found a few by searching using the chinese name here.
The shiny gardevoir and gallade figure is listed here.
I think this is the main shop that sells these figures on taobao.

I did a quick search online, there's quite a few US taobao agents. I'm not from the US though so personally I wouldn't know which ones are the most reputable. If you can find one, I'm sure it'll be cheaper ordering from them directly than through GAC. Since the GAC owner needs to pay the fees + shipping to Singapore first and then you'd have to pay the fees + shipping from Singapore to the US.

I ordered the gardevoir gallade and ralts kirlia statues you can get them off of GAC star toys just google "Gardevoir resin statue" :) hope that helps. Did you try yahoo japan for the other stuff?

[saturngrls]

I know a normal version is still available of the Gallade and Gardevoir Valentines Day sculptures through GAC, but all the shiny versions are sold out.

The Shiny Kirlia and Ralts one is also sold out everywhere I look.

[mega_quilava]

:( well maybe message them? They're very nice and helpful. thats the only option I didn't look at the page I only stated that that's where I found mine to help.

[saturngrls]

I guess I could give it a shot to see if there is a possibility of back ordered options.

I am looking for the haxorus figure of TOMY arts, I cant get it :(

[saturngrls]

Have you tried searching for it by its regional name? Like: オノノクス TOMY

Sometimes using the regional name gives better luck. Sometimes...

[endpard]

yes, I am using the japanese name and without the tomy for all the brands, but never get the tomy arts :(

[saturngrls]

Yeah, its about the same luck with Bisharps. I am hoping to get lucky.
I missed one by two days in this group. XD
