I didn’t actually preorder all that much this week ^^; Part of it is I am waiting for other sites to start taking preorders for a couple of additional figures I want as TL wants way too much over the yen price for them (especially on a Kotobukiya figure wtf? ). On the bright side I guess this should make updating http://kleintoys.wordpress.com/preorders/toyslogic/ a tad easier, still need to build pages for Hobbysearch, Hobbylink, CDJapan and a few other places but I haven’t had the time ^^;

I went after Miku too, I like my GSC one a lot…but I’m such a huge fan of Max Factory that I crumbled. I really miss having Kotobukiya US as a pre-order option, waiting an extra 3 months was sooooo worth paying almost half retail price. I JUST bought the Kotobukiya Rei for $44 with free shipping. It’s crazy that her Asuka counterpart is so $$$!!
Well anyway I’m still eagerly awaiting to see your newest Dollfie! SO EXCITING!

I am addicted to Vocaloid so any Miku figure equals insta-get. I like the Max Factory Miku but I think the Volks will probably remain my favorite. Kotobukiya US was a double edged sword yes the figure would potentially be cheaper but I have seen them only just get a figure up to a year after Japan’s release and there was no guarantee they would fulfill all the orders too much of a headache for me when enough points to knock down the price elsewhere.
The new one as well as Rin arrived a little while ago if you look closely at my flickr link on the front page you should be able to figure out who the mystery dollfie is.
