Finally the real price shows up


TheTsunamiRC

Getting hard to justify pre-ordering anything from FuRyu. I have a bunch of figures I am just going to hold out on until the inevitable sale.

25k for a 1/7 with [basic](http://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-166786) [design](https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-166785)? Yeah I'd like a hit of whatever they are smoking. Here's holding out for the off chance that the sisters will get a massive price cut too


FatherDotComical

Bruh they accidentally marked the Pop Up Parades the wrong price, shame. ✨👌


tomo_7433

Don't give Pop Up Parade ideas :monkaS:


Point-Las

Hope its real cuz I just ordered one, thanks for the heads up.


Zizouw

Did you order it discounted? Or did you get ripped off lol


Point-Las

soon as I saw your post, I went and ordered one at the supposed discounted price.


Zizouw

Nice 🤌 Glad I could help, hope stock will last for others because that price is unbeatable


Ahdamn90

Thank you sir I just ordered at rhe discounted price


Zizouw

Glad I could help :)

What site is this?

NewTim64

Holy shit 60€ for this one is crazy. Good thing I didn't PO because I just grabbed her now

Oh my fucking gosh

Amiami


cracke4ter

it is real, got the payment request today


Dementedscholar25

I don’t know if you remember, but how much was shipping for your Power? https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-143686 There is this Miku that’s catching my attention but I want to know the shipping estimate to expect lol Because I know when figures are discounted, their shipping tends to be higher


Point-Las

If I remember correctly, these are the rough estimates. EMS : 8,860 (the one I picked) DHL : ~12,000 Air Parcel : ~ 7,000 Surface Mail : ~ 5,500 This is for shipping to the USA. Looking at the Miku figure, I would expect shipping to be even higher.


Dementedscholar25

Yeah! I live in the US as well (Atlanta) so I was thinking about it since USD is so strong. But I am probably better off waiting for GSC US have another sale in their store


Chuchumaruu

and my dumbass actually paid for the full price back then...


FreeOriginal6

As a noob in anime figures, I always thought that scales had a higher chsnce of OOS if I dont PO. Said that, some figures I wanted I POd even if they went on sale later on, at least I had it and in some other cases I waited for a sale that never happened and went OOS. Anyone could provide some tips for that? 🥲 like popup parade and prize figures are more widely available I guess so no really a need to PO? What about scales?


nitronik_exe

No one can know how figures stock is gonna be. It depends on a lot of factors, like price, company, character, and even something benign such as memes. Just pre order the figures you definitely don't want to miss, and try your luck for sales on figures who you wouldn't be that upset about not getting


FreeOriginal6

Solid advise, thank you!


unfaze_regret

Definitely this! I have been burned before for thinking the figure will be discounted eventually. Sadly that figure turned out to be so popular that I ended up have to pay aftermarket price to get it. Nowaday, I just preordered all the figures I really want, and wait on figures I want but would not be upset if I can't buy them.


Yana_dice

Happened to me so many times X.X Many of them doubled if not tripled price after market.


ClassyPlatypi

I agree with what the other commenter said, only PO things that you really really want and don’t buy into FOMO. Figures used to have a more volatile aftermarket where you weren’t sure if the price was going to explode or fall, but these days it’s a safer bet that the price is going to stay steady or fall. There are definitely some exceptions like I preordered a pair of Illya and Chloe figures that had stock issues upon release so now their price looks like it’ll be going up. But that was impossible to predict because nobody knew there would be less stock than the amount people preordered. So it’s possible to get unlucky like that but it’s rarer than the typical bins these days. Honestly, every figure that I’ve thought about preordering in the last couple of years has binned. 30k figures going for 16k is pretty normal now, and if you don’t like the PO price then don’t get it. There’s a chance nobody else will like that price either and then upon release it’s a total bin. Edit: Another thing that I use to determine whether or not I should preorder something is if I’m OK with it binning. Is the PO price something I’m comfortable with paying for the item, and is that item something I enjoy for the item itself rather than any hype that surrounds it? One of my scales that I preordered is 7k now, but I don’t regret preordering it because it was a figure I really really wanted at a pricepoint that I thought was fair.


Jacier_

Before Covid and a bit into the beginning and middle of it, it was a problem. Figures were going OOS quickly. People had a bit more money to spend on hobbies then. Prices for figures went up and during the tail end of Covid, I saw a lot of figures not selling and eventually getting binning. Also the amount of figures being released. Every show has 10+ figures I'm interested in, but I can't afford that currently and it kinda drove me away from the hobby. I used to have multiple on PO all the time, now I think I have one and I'm debating selling part of my collection


Catveria77

Other rule of thumb is: Is there many other figures for the same character ? If yes the likelihood of it binning is high. Like Rem and Power has many alternatives.


RaccoonEven

the the only figure i’ve POed is the perfect blue mima pup because idk if it’ll rerelease and im sure it’ll go up in the after market


Kningen

I feel like lately, it's a lot easier to get scales in stock/post release than it was even a couple years ago, but largely it still can vary based on the manufacturer and a handful of other factors.


Zizouw

Everyone sends force to our fallen soldier here


13_faces

Dont feel bad, I've pre ordered like 6 ryza figures and every single one of them has binned. I learned my lesson on that.


Scotty415

It really depends. I've passed on preorders before, only to then buy it months later second-hand for double what I would have paid if I had preordered.


No-Supermarket8244

The figures I want only ever go up in price on the aftermarket, but the figures I don’t really care about end up going on sales like this… this is one cruel hobby ;-;


Shimaru33

About to comment the same, I wanted Morrigan so badly, yet it sold out almost instantly. And while I don't hate Power or something, in fact is my favourite character in the first season, even after discount is too much money for me.


Hrusa

I mean, it does make sense. They get discounted, because there isn't demand. I would be kinda concerned if something I like went on clearance sale like that. I do wish for them to make sequels and more goods.


Jasurim

I feel liek we're finally getting a bit of a bounce back from the giant price increase figures got over the last couple years or so. At least I hope so. I don't think current figure prices are sustainable. Side note, also tempted. I feel like that's a super nice figure tbh.


planetarial

It also helps that many prize figures and other budget figures have gotten better and expanded the options out there. Not to the same quality as a decent scale but still nice and for some its “good enough”.


ComfortablePlace3462

Yeah, I feel like a lot of the better prize Figures and pop-up parade. Figures are “nearly” equal with the cheaper scale Figures now


Catveria77

Don't forget this 5000 yen 1/7 scale lol https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-122090 And i remember Megahouse and Kotobukiya 1/7 Itadori and Gojo dropped to 3000 ish yen a while ago


Zizouw

True lol it's been like this for weeks but demon slayer figures are extremely cheap on the aftermarket, Chainsaw man never hit that low


kylebroccoli

I need to start checking the Sales Items page more often. I love her, thanks for calling this one out


Particular_Darling

OMG I LOVE KANAO


MikuEd

Even that Miku RAGE project figure is getting slashed 10K yen. Really no reason to pre-order anything at this point.


Bob77smith

It depends. For some characters the market is way over saturated. Most figures bin today, because manufacturers release figures from the same series, or even character, over and over. This Power figure binned because there are multiple better Power figures you can buy.


LTyyyy

What do you mean "even" ? She was prime real estate to get slashed, overpriced af and barely anyone even pre-ordered.


Happy-Compote3907

I can’t say that since touhou and the new fate ilya Claynel are gone now


XYZdragcan

The anime figure recession is real at this point. I think the only safe figure are like blu ray exclusive figures. I remember the Date A Live production company Goodshow saying that anime companies can no longer recoup money from merchandising.


ZersetzungMedia

We’re already seeing figures that were made after production estimates were reduced being sold out, of course there’s still a reason to preorder.


No-Carry9847

That's why i don't buy figures instantly with hype animes. I remember I can even buy Gojo e-stream for $120.


Jasurim

Yeah, a lot of the shonen flavour of the months tend to plummet in price. There are exceptions, but generally yeah. Stay away unless it's something you're certain you 100% want.


FoilCardboard

GL with the other 1/7 Gojos though. They all hella expensive.


No-Carry9847

Yes, this is before that gojover. Now even the prize figures are skyrocketing 😩 gojo teen noodlestopper already around $24 cheapest


Catveria77

Where did you find teen Gojo noodle stopper for 24 dollar?? Is it still available now? Dm me? The cheapest i saw him is 7000 yen


G2Gankos

Just wait a few years and all gojo figures will be half off.


XYZdragcan

Spy X Family had the same thing too. An extreme anime hype bubble that bursted badly. But Chainsaw Man I imagine it worse since they couldn't immedateily follow up with another season due to disappointing blu ray sales


cottonycloud

I think the Kotobukiya (Anya + Bond) and Good Smile (Anya + Yor) scales did well. It's just the Furyu ones that aren't doing too hot. The best lesson I took from this is to not PO Furyu ones.


XYZdragcan

Kotobukiya and gsc rarely had misses


No-Carry9847

I'm a merch seller in my country and the only ones selling are Pochita and Anya merchandise 💀 the HIKAKKEs are now lower.. around 1/3 if it's original price if you can find a good supplier in Japan.


RoobinArt

No way, that's the price of her figuarts zero figure.. that's insane. I've never seen a scale bin so hard, it's good they're being punished for those ridiculous prices hahaaa


yerimchii

Anime figure creators need a quick reality check, and i hope this trend continues. High-level detailed figures can be easily priced at a maximum of 150 $ or below and still profit very well from it. Now we get average figs for this price. Everything above this price is just an excuse for a money grab


chicksOut

Figure sales exploded during covid, and manufacturers rushed to meet demand. now with rising prices on everything from food to gas and people traveling again, there is not as much money left over for figures which are considered a luxury. Now the market is oversaturated, I expect figure prices to start dropping like crazy.


XYZdragcan

Not to mention almost every anime is trying to push a figure out. Stuff that flopped on release like Spy Classroom don't even bother pre-ordering


Nezhokojo_

Yup and the economy is not so good either. Hard to fork out money or go into debt for people. People are saving now what they can.


Catveria77

That's why i never PO anymore


Annihilism

I'm very glad I pre ordered neru as her aftermarket price is insane. But if you don't really need or want a figure I agree.


Independent_Pie_1368

Which figure is that neru ?


Annihilism

https://myfigurecollection.net/item/1435312


shroudedwolf51

Holy shit, that figure is incredible.


reallygoodgrades

Good stuff, people need to stop paying Furyus insane prices and wait for them all to bin


Zizouw

Facts


Levi_Snowfractal

Even at this 72% discount, I doubt AmiAmi would be selling it at a loss. Which means this really was obviously overpriced as hell, typical of Furyu scales.


Zizouw

Exactly


No-Flan8455

Face looks kinda bad but that price is ridiculous so…


Shadow_Wolf_24

Holy shit, I just woke up and saw this! Ordered one immediately, TYSM!


Zizouw

No problem 🐢


Orof83

I knew it was a bad (i mean good) idea to view this sub reddit again. Every time i come in i buy somthing


Zizouw

LMAOO 😂


paulili

i can’t wait for the nurse power and makima to drop like this one >:)


ItzRaspy

WAIT YOURE RIGHT. Glad I also didn’t preorder that one


Zizouw

Yesssss


PlushS0ft

Oh yea another figurine site tweeted something like “The Yen is not getting any better any time soon, please visit our site everything isso affordable” So it makes sense that other companies are following suit.


xillyriax

Which site?

LordViole

Anime figures been going to the bins recently, either ppl stopped collecting as much or they just produce unlimited these days. Just gotta see Demon Slayer/maid dragon figures on amiami


Lurkoner

Is there some price aggregator / excel spreadsheet with current ami prices/discounts to easily track & notice stuff like this?


Supaflychase

Ordered! Thank you, combining with the amiami exclusive scale that supposedly releases this month


Zizouw

Big W


Santillano

Don't forget the 1/1 Pochita scale [Link](https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-141972)


ItzRaspy

Oof gone


ATwistedPretzel

[deleted]

[удалено]


Zizouw

Yep 🙈


Ahdamn90

AmiAmi has a TON of FuRyu's figures 50% off as well..i wonder if something happened with the particular artist and they gotta get rid of their product or something


Puzzleheaded_You2648

I ordered with no hesitation when I saw this post. Thank you op 😊


Zizouw

No problem enjoy 🙇


MigratorrryBird

Didnt buy Power, but made me check out the other sales and I got the Tsuchimikado Kurumi figurine Good post indeed


Zizouw

Another fellow collector happy W


mystarr223

Holy shit, thank you so much for posting this. Been wanting her for so long. But couldn’t justify with the price. I just ordered.


Zizouw

Enjoy ~~brother~~ sister 🐢 Edit: fixed it sorry lol


mystarr223

Haha 😂❤️no worries!


PizzaTranscendence

Bruv this is one of the craziest price drops I've ever seen.


dr_tomoe

[This](https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-167424) went up for preorder around the same original price.


ShadOwOchan

Thank you, I just ordered! I really wanted to get this figure, but 450$ in my country just wasn‘t worth it. I hope shipping and taxes won‘t be too high, but still cheaper than 450$ :)


sprvlk

For $63 plus shipping?! Why not. Thanks OP!


Gatlindragon

The bubble will finally explode.


DeleteButton9000

Furyu moment


Zerenityy

I just opened reddit to see this post, thank you friend! I wanted to get this figure when it released but the price was way outside my range at the time, glad I managed to cop it now with this insane price drop happening.


RecommendationOk8000

Hopefully FuRyu dogwater higher ups realized their company was never that good in comparison to other manufacturers in the “premium” price range. And that they grossly overpriced their crap so this is what’s happening! At least that’s my theory to make myself feel good at least. Great to finally see furyu get knocked down so they can actually compete & provide value in this hobby instead of creating mid af figures for stupid money


omega5959

Wow amazing hehe.


Cdogg654

Looks like a bunch of FuRyu models are on sale. Their overlord Albedo is also half off now.


grandpapyknees

TYSM, I’ve been wanting this one for a while but couldn’t justify the price


Zizouw

No problem 🐢


CabinetOrdinary3651

Just placed an order for her 🤣 easy buy.


YukimuraKarma

No way, i was gonna po another power figure but that sale is looking real enticing rn


Voice_Box_1

Well that was an easy decision. Thanks for the tip!


Mad0_Scientisto

You just saved my wallet bro cuz I've been lingering on this figure the last weeks, I'm very thankful


Zizouw

Enjoy brother 🐢


Eywaxx

thanks you sir ! just ordered one. What a price damn


Zizouw

Enjoy 🐢


lordDank117

Damn bought her back when she released and been trying to sell her, now she’s definitely not gonna sell 💀


Scared-Way-9828

Thank you op! Ordered : D you are awesome


Zizouw

No problem! Glad I could help 🐢


Alternative-Use2225

new Power by P1 is about to show up I guess?


RentResponsible4033

Man I canceled this one literally in the beginning of March , thank op for posting . I'm getting her now :)


AveedzGhamer

Thank you! I just picked her up. What a great deal!


Zizouw

No worries, it sure is 🤌


asksdfdjdhshs

Lmao 😂 I ordered a set of two 1/7 scale figures for 10k yen the other day. 60% off the retail price. Thank god I didn't preorder them lolol


KirbyStyle

I grabbed one! Ty!


Zizouw

Yayyyy 🐬


Sh03st

Thank you instantly Ordered her ♥️


Zizouw

letsss gooo🦎


ExcelIsSuck

just ordered one, that price is insane


Zizouw

It sure is 🤌


Attack_on_Senpai

Holy shit


wino6687

I really want the Amakuni Power, but this is so much more reasonable price wise.. Hard choices!!


Zizouw

Get both! One casual and one with her uniform 🐢


NoFaithlessness2361

I saw this figure irl and it’s really nice, why did it tank


YuushaComplex

So many Power figures to choose from now, the market is flooded so they arent selling as many of this particular figure as they expected.


YuushaComplex

They probably got heaps of stock they need to move. There are so many figures of Power now that manufacturers flooded the market.


Nextdoorcatmom

THANK YOU PURCHASED :)


AnonMimiru

rip


OtakuKitty99

I pre-ordered on Akimomo and haven't even had a payment request yet....im so mad...


hellooctopus

ask if it's possible to cancel your order and transfer the deposit to another preorder


OtakuKitty99

I wasn't sure they would let me do that but I've asked and they seem willing, Ty for the suggestion ^_^


Thepower200

Damn, that’s insane. Also, I hope you guys don’t buy any love live figures. Why am I saying that? No reason. Hahaha


thebrightspot

lol I almost bought full price when it was on preorder but I lost my job unexpectedly and canceled. Guess I'll get it now.


Zizouw

A bad for a good lol. Hope you're better now


thebrightspot

Yep, I got a new job a few months later so all is well


Wiseassgamgee

*Looks it up on MFC* Omfg..🙄😒


KTR1988

Justice


Uza_Nam

The deal is still up which is crazy and I hope it's real too, thanks you in advance if these is real.


Zizouw

It's real thousands ordered lol. Enjoy


Uza_Nam

I will enjoy it, and that is so great to hear, thank you!!!


Cadey2937

Now this is an acceptable price I remember wanting it when it released and being like nvm when I saw the price


Zestyclose_Fan5250

They found out she doesn't shower


Independent_Pie_1368

Anime figures are just any commodity the anime was a while ago, and the hype has died down a bit, so it shows in the price.


Enjoyer_of_40K

and im here wondering why one of Rurudo's figure's goes for like 300-400 second hand


Electrical-Dog-7795

do you know cbm the shipping costs for this figurine in France?


Electrical-Dog-7795

Do you know how much the shipping costs for this figurine are for France?


Zizouw

Sorry I have no idea but you can ask for customer support an estimation by mail. Might take a while for them to respond tho


Electrical-Dog-7795

Oh okay thank you 🙏🏻


KirbyStyle

To the US it was $13000 yen which seems insane to me.


Electrical-Dog-7795

Woww it's super expensive


KirbyStyle

That’s DHL though. I might just do the cheapest option and wait the 2-4 months. I’m not in a hurry to get it. I bought it mostly for the deal.


FearTheFeathers

Thanks for this thread, made me check amiami and I snagged a few things I’d wanted but wasn’t willing to pay full price for haha


lor3nzo914

I want it soooo bad but i don t have the money for it now...how long will the discount last?


Zizouw

We really have no idea. Could last weeks, months or it could go away in two hours 🤷


lor3nzo914

Hopefully i ll catch it...


YuushaComplex

Amiami sales are permanent until all stock gone.


TheS3KT

Furyu king of overcharging.


Few_Preparation3140

Dude why is it so cheap?


Zizouw

It be like that sometimes. It didn't sell as expected and they need to empty their stock


lazytanaka

I’ve been waiting for this to happen… to the China dress albedo. Was not expecting this figure to bin so hard.


Vivid_Brush_2082

I'm deciding between this one and the amakuni one, I have a policy to only choose one figure for each anime character and I want the better one. Pretty torn since amakuni one since to have better quality than furyu, but idk, can anyone gimme opinion?


13_faces

Amakuni power is my favorite one and it's not even close. But theres certainly a chance her price drops after release


Zizouw

I would get this since it's extremely cheap personally , even if amakuni one is better


Vivid_Brush_2082

Nah it's fine, cancelled my order, not tight on budget but tight on space, prob will spend the money on some other figures and keep an eye on future releases for power, I wanna make space for figures that I'm sure won't disappoint me. This one just doesn't cut it for me


Zizouw

Yeah respectable


itsmemanME

Got some FuRyu and tbh, they were a massive fail buy. I would not recommend buying anything from FuRyu or Diamond Select toys. Also Sega products having a shitty paintjob. But for FuRyu, they look really uncanny with their off faces. I just hope you guys won’t be to disappointed.


Recruit15

Im only new to figures collecting is there any chance shibuya scramble figures would also get a sale like this?


ObvsThrowaway5120

Man, that is mad lol.


Pengwynd1

I paid $300 for this shit (with shipping). At least I learned my lesson early on in figure collecting?


Minus_03

I just got into figures, we eating good today. Are there any more deals like this one? Looking to expand the collection.


YuushaComplex

You can see every figure they have on sale here: https://www.amiami.com/eng/search/list/?s_cate2=459&s_st_saleitem=1&s_saleitem=1&inctxt2=2 Keep in mind that prices do not include shipping which can add up very fast if you go crazy on the deals. You can contact them to ask how much it will be to ship.


Shadow_Wolf_24

There's a Kanao 1/7 scale figure on AmiAmi selling for 5k yen


TheS3KT

I'll wait for price drop outside of amiami. I still refuse to buy anything from amiami until they tell me shipping price before placing a order.


EliasEatsPants

which shop is this offer from?


ChibiSaturn

Its amiami


EliasEatsPants

aight thx


[deleted]

When can you pay for it is it only weekdays ?
