What happened to 'Rock Hard Fairies?'
« on: June 05, 2013, 08:42:26 AM »
I used to LOVE them for a short phase. I even spent out £30 on a Lilith figure that ended up being sold at a car boot for £1!  -_-
Reason I am asking, I found/saw a Diva figure in a charity shop the other day, and didn't buy it, but it brought back my memories of how much I loved them! Lilith was my favourite, although now, I would really dislike the look of her! (I'd find her scary! XD) Now, it would be Su-Li. I'm just wondering, what has happened to the brand? The website is non-existent and the shop is also gone!! They were doing so well!
Anyone else used to like them?

http://www.collectaworldshop.co.uk/mall/departmentpage.cfm/CollectAtLtd/_413818/1  this is the only place i've ever seen them at
Ah thank you, I found that website too. Sadly don't have a Su-Li figure :( I knew she was HTF at the time, but I guess she's even harder to find now the website is permanently gone! :(

They were amazing! No idea how I came across them, I guess I was rather goth at the time, so that's why I liked them! I'm the complete opposite now! Super girly! XD

I don't think they sold *that* well, I remember them. They were overly expensive imo for the teen goth market and the sort of blocky anime style didn't work. They sat unsold in the local gift shop forever until they dropped them to 75% off in a sale. They were a bit niche even for goths. Begoths have vanished as well now, series 9 never appeared and their sites have gone mostly.

I had a cup with them on, but that was only a couple of years ago. I never got round to buying an actual fairy.

I never got round to buying a BeGoth either, I did get some Living Dead Dolls though.

They were never my cup of tea, but I always used to see them in the cabinets of a Joke shop in Hunstanton. They had loads of merch of them too.

They remind me of the gumball toys "homies" for some reason!
