Limited Wonderfest Stuff Ain’t That Limited Anymore

I was so close to getting the WF 2007 Haruhi figurine,with all the special parts included from Latendo. And I’m glad I didn’t get it. Or I would be feeling damn stupid right now.

This made my day much better, knowing I didn’t get it.

Looks like the Haruhi is going to be released in November at 6000 yen.Much cheaper than forking out $170 for one.

Another one I wanted to get would be the Fate/Tiger Colosseum Saber Plushie,which is also to be released in November at 2500 yen. Again,much cheaper than paying close to $60.

Only bad thing,you have to be in Japan,and the order closes on 19th August. I’m going to head down to Toyntoys this Friday to ask if they take in orders. If not,then I might turn to Benny. Or I might not get at all.

Now that I have no cash,something that I want appears

Thanks to the WF,I’ve got no money left now. I even have to go work as a salesman at Comex 2007 just to be able to pay for my WF loot.

Was browsing Yahoo Japan Auctions for the prices of the WF stuff,when I chanced upon this beauty(not a WF item), going at 42,000 yen. Including shipping, it will amount up to about 55,000 yen.Around S$700 for a 1/2.5 scaled figurine of Rei. Totally worth the money. After all,this product has been released for a very long time already,and is extremely difficult to look for,even in Japan. The last time I went to Akiba, I only managed to find the Asuka one.

After all,I can’t get the 1/1 Rei. The price is at a freaking 430,000 yen,excluding shipping. With shipping included, I guess it’ll rise to S$6000. If I had the cash,I would buy it. Meh…

Anyway, 1 paper down, 3 more papers to go… Before I am free for a month.
