AOU 2010 Amusement EXPO is held on February 19-20, 2010 at Makuhari Messe. The event is held for two days: 19th is the press day and 20th is the public day. It is biggest trade show in arcade game industry to showcase new machines and titles. As usual, we will just focus on the prize items only.
This time we have Banpresto, SEGA, Taito, FuRyu, Eikoh, and some other prize figure manufacturers.
SEGA is always my favorite prize figure manufacturer, most of my prize figures are made by them. The quality of their prize figures are great. Sometimes you can’t even believe that they’re just cheapo 1,500 yen prize figures. But it’s still a hit-or-miss, they don’t always make good prize figure. I had bought some crap by SEGA before. So my strategy is per-order everything I want first, and then wait for the photo review from the Japanese figure collector and cancel all the orders that I don’t like ASAP before the store ship the stuff to me. =P

Someone know any place i can get good pictures of prize figures?
I bought today the kuroshitsuji set 2 from sega in a blind shot, dont know the paint quality nor the sculpture, hope it look at least decent.
I’m assuming you’ve bought the latest set of Kuro Sega prize figures, of Grell and Sebastian? Tsukiboard updated the images a while ago (I’d know, I uploaded them ^^). Here they are:

The original set of Ciel and Sebastian was very nice for $30, so it’s worth getting those too.
Oh thanks a lot for the images…
The figures looks good for me
GGT, is there any specific Japanese figure collector you go to? Cause I have a hard time finding more pictures before the pre-orders come in >_<
No specific one, just go check around all those popular one like アキバHOBBY, foo-bar-baz, 徒然Ｂｌｏｇ, and many others.
Not many real figure collectors collect prize figure tho.
Well, the Disney merchandise is gonna show up in my nightmares tonight…
LOL, yay, those are scary!
I was hoping to see the Eva Maid figures, they’re on GA Graphic’s Sega page http://ga.sbcr.jp/mreport/013754/ but I haven’t seen anything about them since. I don’t even think they’ve been put up for preorder any where.
Nothing really stood out for me this time.
Oh, those were from last year! You missed them already. =(
