Found this Spawn figure in a thrift shop for $12.50. thats pretty expensive for a thrift shop find, Savers usually puts figures in bags and sells them 4-8 figs for $3-8 per bag. when they get really big like over 12" they are usually $4-9 unless its something notable like pokemon or MLP Considering the figure itself has a decent amount of heft along with real metal chains, I can see why they priced it. I didn't mind paying though since the shop itself was set up so that all the funds they receive go towards helping animal shelters.

oh yeah, it was definately still worth it either way its just odd for a figure to be priced so high. I mean, I have found Kotobukiya statues at thrift store before for under $10

If anyone is thinking about getting him, do it. --snip-- Thanks I put together Celty and Lucina. My first Figma figure and I gotta say I'm impressed, they even included a Figma plastic baggie to put the pieces like extra hands and stuff in so you don't lose it! Not necessary, but much appreciated. All the hands also come on a little plastic stand thing too so you can easily store them, Tamashii should learn from them a bit.

roshisurprise I thought about it when th head was first revealed but quickly lost interest in it. The alt face just looks so dull and lifeless and IMO takes away from the visceral feel of the statue. I don't care for Kaneki enough as a character to want to look at his boring face over the much more interesting mask. I'm praying that someone- anyone- will make Tsukiyama and Nishio soon. They're my favorite characters and the only ones I really care about. But this statue just looked so sick, I had to buy it.

Got my Rin figure! Since he's voiced by the same guy as Broly, I knew what i had to do.

I like the fact that Broly can barely see over his own shoulders.
