A Hard Choice MFC! Which Scale Figure to get?A Hard Choice MFC! Which Scale Figure to get?Polls

-Yet another long Read folks, but with this many figures tempting me right now gotta go over those figures-


Well here I am again MFC with another Hard Choice on what to decide on getting in July!




With June pretty much done I'm finding myself eying a few Scaled Figures would love to get for this collection but with my limited space and trying to talk myself OUT of getting a lot more of these Scald Figures due to the prices on the Aftermarket it's hard to decide what to get!

I love Danmachi folks.

One thing that has always annoyed the hell out of me about Danmachi is how this series only has a handful of figures! You'd figure a series with a few Seasons, a Spin Off, a long Manga Series and Light Novel Series would have more Merch but it doesn't and that always lead to seeing my Goddesess Hestia having pretty expensive figures on the Aftermarket but lately have seen ITEM #302025 pop up at some decent prices on the aftermarket and feeling a growing need to get another Hestia in the collection!

Hestia is Bestia!

The Kotobukiya Hestia looks like she'll be perfect to display on the desk!

So far only have ITEM #303663 in the collection got her from my friend ChocolateSpider and just feeling that need to get at least one more Hestia in the collection and that Kotobukiya Hestia has been one I've wanted for a while.

Hestia is already pretty much locked in as July's Main Pickup for the Anime collection depending on how much she is when getting around to getting her in a few weeks!


Considering how much Scales cost on the Aftermarket MFC my usual budget can handle at least 2 of them pretty easy and this is where the hard choice comes in.



ITEM #549342 been seeing her on the Aftermarket at some decent prices and tempted to get her, I LOVE that Swimsuit design and while I'm not that interested in Swimsuit figures these days she looks too good not to get plus I had her a few years ago and it's another one of those collecting Regrets of mine to correct since sold her when cleaned out most of my Anime collection scaled figures only to get sucked back into Anime collecting a year or so after that..

With it being Summer can't help but feel drawn to getting a Swimsuit figure or two from series I like but she's one of those figures that costs over $120 at times so gotta think on that one!

But that Swimsuit of hers is Gorgeous so it makes it hard to resist!

Been thinking about getting ITEM #946011 on and off over the past few months, I just love the way this Mera looks and it's a great looking Bishoujo! She'll be an excellent addition to the Comic Character collection plus look great on dsplay!

Her Aftermarket price isn't that bad usually topping around $120-$130 so could pick her and Hestia up fairly easy without it taking up most of my initial $300 Budget for July's Online Figure Purchases.

Still wanting to get the Fate Grand Order Medicom Jeanne ITEM #298185 she's still at the top of the To Get List but with her prices being what they are on the Aftermket it requires a considerable bit of mental debate plus considering how large she is and the lack of space have to be thoughtful of that before considering getting her.

https://static.myfigurecollection.net/upload/pictures/2016/01/14/1454443.jpeg

But she is a gorgeous looking figure MFC so it's hard not to look at that one and think "That would look awesome in my collection."

Would love to pick up the Tamamo that I've wanted on and off for a long time ITEM #61381 but compared to the rest she's not high on my Want List right now.

https://static.myfigurecollection.net/upload/items/2/61381-316c4.jpg



And then there's the Stacia Scaled Figure needed to complete the SAO Goddess Set ITEM #805895 would love to add a few more Asuna figures to this collection and this one may get on the list for this month but she's another figure that costs over $100 so this one may wait till August or September to get picked up.

Now moving onto what feels like it's more affordable and won't drain the Budget faster the Figma I've wanted to get over the past few months but never got to get them due to Scales taking up most of my budget for the months

ITEM #287737 Leafa's Figma remains at the top of my To Get List for Figma and feeling a constant need for more Leafa in this collection!

https://static.myfigurecollection.net/upload/items/2/287737-d007b.jpg

ITEM #806046 Alice's Figma has been one of those Figma that looks great to me and is a must get but with everything else tempting me haven't felt like getting her and would love to add her to this collection and have another Alice in the SAO Collection!

https://static.myfigurecollection.net/upload/pictures/2021/09/27/2865691.jpeg

With my interests in collecting Anime pretty much locked into collecting FGO and SAO it's hard to decide what to get and with a fairly limited amount of space for new figures and a limited initial budget of $300 can pick up 1 Scale and maybe 1 Figma and that budget would be depleted so trying to figure out how to avoid blowing through so much of that budget when things start up for the month's collecting.


Plus with new releases coming for other series I like to collect like Gi Joe Classified, Star Wars Black Series, and Transformers Legacy gotta rethink and think hard because it's gotten too easy to spend more $$$$$$ than one should on Figures and need to cut back on how many that are added to the collection to appreciate the new additions MFC.


Still have a few older figures to pick up for other collections since needing to get a Transformers Movie Optimus Prime and Sentinel Prime for the Transformers collection after getting Studio Series Megatron this month.

Feels as if by the time you look at a few scaled figures you'll be broke easy with how much those cost.

Still need to get a FGO Rin for the collection but not sure which of the many Rin figures out there to get plus she's pretty expensive on the Aftermarket.

So a few weeks to go till one or two of these can be picked up MFC.


My budget for Scaled Figures is $300 MFC, trying to have that set as a base budget for stuff since it feels like if I go over that I've spent too much on those so that allows for at least 2 Scaled Figures so being selective with them is the way I have to be since there are so many wonderful figures out there it really gets harder and harder each month to decide on what to get as the figures that I want become more beautiful and gorgeous and usually the more attractive they look the more expensive they are.

I Have at least 3 weeks MFC to decide.

They all look very nice but that Hestia is a very strong opener so I'd go for her - not seen the show myself but she do be cute

You sound most excited about that Hestia, so go for that one. She came up first when you sat down to write your list! I also personally think that Koto's Hestia looks the most interesting and attractive out of the various figures and figma under consideration in this article, so that's an easy suggestion overall too. The apple crate gives hints of Spice & Wolf's Holo, so they might be interesting characters to pose together.

Second vote would be for the Asuna. She looks the next most cool in my opinion, and you mentioned that SAO was a main focus for you right now.

Even if you later decide to go with different ones, I'd still suggest going for two scale figures and skipping the cheaper figures. The yen is so cheap right now that this is the time to buy the expensive stuff, and the cheaper figures will experience less of a price rise later if/when the exchange rate changes.

(For FGO Jeanne D'Arc, there's always the Dollfie Dream if you have room for a 2 foot tall version...)

I would get the Asuna figure. My opinion is super biased as I’m a huge SAO fan.

Also she completes the set giving her a bit of a lead in my opinion.

I'm not too into swimsuit figures myself (I do have the Marie Antoinette one (Fate), but that's because it's one of her few figures), but that Scathach has a really nice base, and looks great in terms of quality. Plus, it's summer, and close to the anniversary of her event (I remember it was in July or something). It's the perfect time to pick her up. I also agree with Reiichiru that as you do miss her, that's another reason to get her.

My second choice would be that Jeanne. She really is a great looking figure (and the only acceptable Jeanne IMO, as she actually uses the sword. Although Max Factory's is a second option if she ever drops in price), and would look great with your other figures. She's also based on Apocrypha Jeanne, so her face is less same-y.

I think our collecting styles are quite different, but I'll share an opinion anyway ^^'

I think if you miss the Beach Scathach, that's a really good reason to get her.
I also think the Hestia would look great on desk, or side-by-side with your other Hestia. She's also small in width and height which might make her a good choice.

I think Stacia would look great beside your Saber Lily and Hestia. The white would look really nice. I think the Jeanne would look really nice with these three too. The collection of white-pink dresses would look great together, I think.

I'd pass on tamamo -you have a tama already I think? And like you said, you're not that interested in her. If you get the beach Scathach, Imo you should get the beach tamamo eventually too!

I'm not interested in posables or bishojou comics, so I'll make no comment on them. They'd fit into your collect well though.

Personally, I think Hestia would be the best fit. Her pose is super cute and I think she would fit nicely in a desk setting! ღゝ◡╹ )ノ♡
