Okay, time to get off my lazy ass and do some posting. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been busy with a lot of stuff in my life and planning for Japan. It barely leaves room for studying the Japanese language. A late post too as I just got back from watching Transformers The Revenge of the Fallen. It was a great movie and I give it a 2 thumbs up. It was that good of a movie. Anyways, on to the post.

I’m planning on what to get when I head to Japan in less then 4 weeks. The major events I’ll be heading to is Wonfes and Comiket. The places that I plan to shop in are pretty much Ikebukuro, Shibuya and Akihabara. I might do some shopping in Kyoto too. In the major events, there is always something that is limited on sale. I have a couple of things I would love to get my hands on. First up, WonFes. I think there will be more special figures that will be released on a later date that might interest me. For now, it’s the stuff I know and I want to get my hands on. Part one of my list will cover a rough list of what I want to get in Japan and will only cover things from Comiket and Wonfes. I’ll write part 2 on a closer date.

WonFes Miku Figma

I am so getting this when I head to WonFes for the first time. This is a early release of the new Miku Hatsune figma by Max Factory and there will be around 3000 of these sold at Max Factory booth. I will be buying like 3 to 4 of these or as many as they allow one person to buy. I have a friend just in case and I am going to get him to buy extra figma for me too. Sell them on Ebay and for some friends of mine. The cost of this is 2500 yen. I’m planning to buy at least 4 of these Figma. I hope I can at least get one for myself and if I get there early, I hope I can find the right line for it.

Miku Hatsune GSC WonFes09

Another Miku Hatsune figure. Yes, I know it looks almost exactly the same as the first one, but there is a bit of difference to them. This one only have 1500 on hand. Half as much as the Figma one. I’ll have one of my friends line up for it and get it for me. I know at WonFes, there will be a lot of people, I just hope I can get my hands on this. It looks really nice too!!! The cost of this one is 6000yen. Pretty expensive but I say worth the cost.

Right now, there are some Touhou figures I also want but I can’t find the pictures at the moment. To my knowledge, it is around 6000yen each. There might be more and I’ll add them on a special list later. I might even pick up those garage kits just the kicks.

Now to Comiket. I heard that Good Smile Company is releasing a Touhou figure and I hope to get my hands one it. My chances are low since Comiket, there is a lot of people. I’ll try to get it if I’m not distracted by other booths selling other goodies.

Well at Comiket there are going to be many things I’ll be aiming for. Doujinshi are the main things plus the main dealers. I’m totally getting Tony Taka doujinshi and other Tony Taka related works. My budget for Comiket is pretty large so I don’t need to worry on how much I spend. I also plan on getting doujins from one of my fav circles Plum. They have really good Nanoha doujinshi and I own a few of their doujinshi. I love their art and works. Other doujinshi I plan on getting..well, I walk around for that. I will look out for doujinshi with pairs or series I love. Lucky Star, Gundam 00, Code Geass, and K-On just to name a few. I’ll be looking out for pairings too. Going to rush through 3 big halls plus the official dealer hall. Trust me, those are big halls.

Well, this ends part 1 of things to get in Japan. Part 2 coming soon.

Note: Pictures of figures in this post are from the GoodSmile Company and Max Factory sites.
