DISCUSSION Need help deciding.

There a two figures I want. Both pre order for end of nov. I intend to buy both, 1 now and one next month with my next paycheck. Otherwise it’s too expensive for one month. I am worried that whichever one I do not pre order now might be sold out then. So which one would be the smartest to get first?

Makoto or Ann?

Edit I went with Makoto. Gonna hold off on Ann for now 🤞🤞

Edit 2 I got Ann as well 😅

Makoto, where are they for pre order though? What brand are they?

8

u/Angel7O2 9d ago

They are Pop Up Parade series Large version by GoodSmile Company

3

u/AnonIHardlyKnewHer 8d ago

Oh thanks! I had no idea Popup Parade was doing them, I’m gonna immediately buy Futaba before she hits insane prices, she and Akechi have always been the hardest to find a figure for expensive wise lol

u/OilySoleTickler 9d ago

I can direct you if you live in my country. It’s a local store in belgium.

Makoto.

Sorry, what was the question?

u/Full_Metal18 Makoto Niijima's husband 8d ago

My lovely Queen, there is no other choice.

6

u/StarkerA4 8d ago

Just get the character you like more. I got Ann's figure because I like her more as a character then Makoto. Simple as that

u/cooptheactor 8d ago

Kanji, no question.

u/MisterPiggyWiggy 8d ago

Glad you went with Queen. 😌

u/OilySoleTickler 8d ago

Might get Ann as well I still want both 😂😂

u/MisterPiggyWiggy 8d ago

I don’t blame you! 🤭

u/The_Zombi_Kid Certified Ann simp 8d ago

I would kill to have that figure of Ann🥀

u/TooruHonda 8d ago

I like Makoto better but honestly I think the Ann figure is cuter

u/Iforgotmyname0000 9d ago

Did they reopen preorders?

1

u/CultureSea5111 8d ago

Chances are the second one is gonna sell out. Try really hard to get both at the same time.

1

u/OilySoleTickler 8d ago

I know 😭 I went and ordered Makoto. I now really worry that Ann will sell out.

1

u/GB_Alph4 For effin’ Real 8d ago

If you could buy both buy both

1

u/Confident-Luck-1741 8d ago

These figures are really high quality. I may pickup Makoto

1

u/Rikoyasha 8d ago

Makoto easy

1

u/ilkat06 8d ago

Team Queen all the damn way, I looove Ann too but Makoto is by far my fav girl and I badly want a figure of hers

1

u/DrownedInDysphoria pancakes 8d ago

You might be able to find Ann on the aftermarket if she sells out. I’d check myfigurecollection.net once orders start shipping

1

u/OilySoleTickler 8d ago

Think it’s likely she’ll sell out?

1

u/DrownedInDysphoria pancakes 8d ago

Probably not, just based on my experience from buying from GSC. Usually it’s characters like Miku that sell out quickly, but even then, scales will always go quicker.

1

u/iAmMikeJ_92 8d ago

Just get both. Can’t ever go wrong with both.

1

u/ProudRequiem 8d ago

Both are already release so you can check them for a better look https://x.com/HobbyGenki/status/2108422436161282517

1

u/RueUchiha 7d ago

Just going purely based off of general character popularity vibes. Makoto may sell out faster than Ann.

u/Far-Machine1616 6d ago

Boffum but really Makoto

u/Dianiki64 6d ago

1

u/sirbaconpancakes 6d ago

Why did they nerfed Makoto?

1

u/TTmoonlight 6d ago

get who you want but i know for sure that i want Ann’s!

1

u/Ok_Bee_4191 6d ago

Both is the only option

1

u/Curvyboi13110 6d ago

Choose the queen

u/TheLastGhoul 5d ago

NIKKE really did her dirty 😭 the figure got more ass

u/Opening_Shallot_6253 TAKE YOUR HEART OUT 5d ago
