I want those mu~gs...
I also want that Saber Bride Figma...but doing so will mean I'll have to shell out for Extra/Saber Figma as well... -_- I wish the 'completionist' in me...wasn't so 'completionist'...

I ordered the Fate carnival phantasm mug yesterday... have had my White Virgin Box on order for a long time. I know exactly the feeling you're talking about re: completionism, fortunately I'm able to draw the line at $200-300 for a second hand USED copy of the original Fate/EXTRA L.E. box just for the sake of the figma. I'm actually sort of happy with myself for thisOriginally Posted by EXiku
-- it is kind of disappointing not to have the original fabulous Red Saber in my collection, though.

*beats self up for breaking Figma Saber Extra's stand*
I can't even replace it with the one from one of my other figmas because they all use the hole-in-the back style stand, while Saber's was a half circle thing that fits around her waist (and I broke it ffffffffff)
Kotonoha, have you tried a di:stage? It appears that it has a similar type of holder--it's a little claw that has an adjustable grip.
Example image from Goodsmile site:
They can be purchased at AmiAmi here: http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIG-IPN-0620
There are also available casings for them so that you can put a figma inside and it will not get dusty or anything

It's an official Max Factory accessory, and also comes with many other little stand accessories including pinups so that you can put speech bubbles or other "special effect" paper cutouts.

I think that may actually be the same kind of holder that comes with Black Rock Shooter to hold up her cannon thing, which I have.
Saber's isn't quite the same because it's not adjustable, just fits around her waist (you kind of push her into it, which is probably what eventually weakened it to the point of breaking in the first place). I actually have tried to use the BRS thing for her, but it just doesn't hold her as well as the one she came with.
Ah, sounds like the stands that came with those really old first few nendoroids like Hetare Saber, Yasugare Rin, and Charinko Rider. Every single one of those snapped on me when I first tried to use them
So my Rins get to sit in their cars instead of standing on those juuuunky stands. Maybe I'll get some di:stages when I can afford them. I'll let you know how they work with normal figmas I have if I do, though you may be right re: Black Rock Shooter figma, I do not have that one though.
Hmm...I came across a copy (Game + Figure) being sold for £140 (about $220)...That's not too bad, since I draw the line at $300+ for an item. I got Distant Avalon for £180 and that was a year before the re-release was announced :/ I would buy Fate/Extra JP LE now, but I'm torn between waiting for the chance to up my credit limit (which I have to do anyway so I can support my Archery hobby...new arrows are hella expensive...) and waiting to see what Ghostlight will release for the EU LE. I know including the Figma is very unlikely, but I'm stupidly optimistic like that...I ordered the Fate carnival phantasm mug yesterday... have had my White Virgin Box on order for a long time.

I put that thingy around her neck instead. At least it won't break like that!
I bought everything. EVERYTHING!
EVERYTHING?!
It's a slippery slope...My collection only began with the crappy figures of Ryu/C. Viper supplied with the SFIV CE...then buying that fake Lily Figma...something broke and I bought Akihiko and everything else I desired on my quest for a real Lily Figma...(QUEST COMPLETE!)
But...everything? I just came across an awesomely priced P3 MC figure...the one I've been searching for...but...my credit card's close to it's limit what with waiting for Amazon to take my monies for Catherine LE and Last Story LE...maybe I can stick it on my mum's and pay her back next month...
I can wait for Fate/Extra JP LE...I have faith that I will acquire that Figma so I may buy Saber/Bride...speaking of which, I need to finish my fanart on that...detail kills me...
EDIT: Just remembered! I still have to confirm my pre-orders for Luke and Saber/Bike figures...

I found a Japanese Fate/EXTRA L.E. "used" with figma included for $213 including shipping, and a Fate/UNLIMITED CODES PS2 L.E. box with Saber Lily figma "used" for $123... I want to buy but I won't be able to afford until April and by then they'll probably be gone. Especially after I just mentioned them ;_;
Oh...I know that pain...I was lucky to find a Fate/UC PS2 LE (with Figma) Used going for about £60~ ($99) bought that with the advice of my bro, not to mention the other copy I had my eye on (new for £123 from the seller I bought Distant Avalon from) had sold out by the time I had the funds to buy it.
Lol! I've got Fate/Extra LE copy on my watch list for $270 (£170)...as a back up in case the other copy I'm watching elsewhere is taken...
I'm really stumped about the Persona 3 MC figure...do I buy it or wait for the seller to respond to my question about providing me with images? What if he doesn't care about my question because the figure's rare as heck anyway and someone'll buy it regardless...

Are you frakking serious!?

So there's going to be a swimsuit Saber(Extra) figure

Is this what they call surpassing the original?

I actually like the Gilgamesh figure released by Babylon Company
(How do I make pictures bigger, I have no idea how)
Haven't bought it yet, it's the cheapest I've found. I can't afford to buy anything 'til April. April after figma Zero Saber, White Virgin Box, and F/Z BD Box 1 - oh, and Penguindrum BD 6.
Yeah, the concept art has been out for a while.*sigh

Serious. The normal Red Saber figures are bad enough with the butt hole-in-the-dress on the back :OYeah, the concept art has been out for a while.

I didn't know how to word that better.
We call it a butt window. Not sure where that came from.
