It's the little touches on those nendoroids that really add a lot to them. I love how the Light/L pair come with handcuffs. That cracked me up when I first saw it.
I also really like how the Miku nendoroid comes with a leak spin pose. That's just awesome.
The expressions on all of the nendoroids always seem to be really interesting too. |

Thats why I held off on getting them for so long myself. I kept telling myself I didn't need them and it would be the start of yet ANOTHER dangerous habit, oh well
bad spending habits - figures, pinkys, manga, video games, gardening stuff, and clothes (clothes and garden stuff aren't as bad as the rest) _________________

The collection on my desk. Spiderman's a placeholder o_o;
A new nendoroid coming this week too to add into there. They had a lot of Tsuruya in stock at Otakufuel last night. Can't resist adding in more nendoroids x_x;; |

That is such an amazing way to display those......Where did you get them?
Those nendoroids are HUGE, or at least they look it standing next to the smaller sets.
I spy a Max Factory Demon Bane figure, how do you like her? _________________

That's a really nice display. All of those are very cute. _________________

| I never saw display cases that were so small. Those look stylish as well. Were they expensive? |

@everyone - thanks for the comments xD And spiderman must be packing too much weight, and too little height o_o
@lovelyduckie/Minomanthys - I actually got these at a local comic shop, but I can also get these at an online shop. The top one you see is $35, and the bottom one is around $23.
The great thing about the top black display case is that you can customize the shelves and either split with three floors, or two, or even one. This was the only one that could be customized to hold the bigger nendoroids ^_^
The bottom one, however, is pretty nice for the smaller figures, especially the petite nendoroids. I have another similar gachapon case which I got for $6 (14 with shipping pictured below, Saber is riding it) which only has two levels compared to the three you see for that one there. Look at the picture below to compare the two display cases. And Akira falls way too much.
Online shop URL listing for display cases
http://www.verycoolthings.com/vct/Neo_getpage.cgi?search=display&button.x=0&button.y=0&button=search&page=listtype
The first page contains the display case types for the bottom one I have. The second page contains the display rack that's housing my bigger nendoroids.
The online shop on that link is pretty good, and although they did take awhile to ship my things out, it was mainly because they were out on an emergency for a week. But the good thing about it is if they miss shipping out your order by the estimated shipping time listed for each product, they'll upgrade it to priority mail for free.
Other than that, I feel that this isn't a very cost-efficient way to house figures. An Ikea Detolf cabinet would be a lot better and cheaper than buying several of these, with the exception of the cheaper two level ones that I believe are made by Daiso (yet I did not spot them in my nearby Daiso)
However, this really helps with space especially if you have a limited amount. Not to mention it keeps the dust out!
That should cover it. As for my Demon Bane Figure, it is great! XD My first 1/8 PVC figure, but keeping it in the box at the moment isn't allowing me to show off the nice transparent brick wall background the figure has >_< I'm waiting to collect more 1/8 figures before putting them in my older display cabinet, which only has room for a few big figures. I blame the nendoroid version for forcing me to get her bigger counterpart.

hey vercoolthings...cool I didn't know they sold display cases too!
Years ago I actually shipped them some trading figures for the purpose they were meant for...trading lol. Too much of a hassle to trade via mail, but unfortunately I didn't know anybody with trading figures I could trade with lol. The guy I exchanged mails with he was a nice guy to be willing to do that. _________________

does anybody have the Figure Meister prism Shakugan no Shana II/Nanatsuiro Drops trading figures?
I saw these in a local shop yesterday and was wondering how the quality was. The pictures on the back of the box look nice lol. The "prism" thing makes it look like they are like store mannequins though I thought it was kinda funny. _________________

I pre-ordered them awhile back but they havn't come in yet.
From what i hear, for a trading figure set, they are of high quality, though Ettendu might be able to give more specifics as I'm not sure they have gotten them in yet (thus why i dont have mine yet). _________________
