Hi guys!
This might be a long shot, but I'm looking for Nendoroids Ikaros and Nymph from the anime Sora no Otoshimono.
(stock pictures, pilfered from some blog, which pilfered this from GSC)

I've been through Mandarake without luck, and they're quite high in price on Amazon... and I want to be sure to get the real authentic deal and not a bootleg.

I'd love to get them for David's birthday, too... we collect nendos and anime figurines together, and we're watching this anime right now.

So... if anyone can point me in some direction (that isn't eBay, I don't want to end up with bootlegs) or has these for sale, I'd be happy to buy them off you or trade for art or ponies. I have a lot for sale, PM me for a list.

Thankful for any help!

Wish I was going ot the con this year or I would be looking for you.

You dont have a convention happening near you at all? They are extremely fun to go to^^

there's one in Linköping this week-end, but you have to buy tickets a while in advance... and I can't really afford to go to a con, to *perhaps* find a Nendo I'm looking for. we don't have a lot of cons in sweden, sadly. I go to all mini cons I can in Stockholm (where I live), but so far, I've only had the "luck" to find a bootleg Snow Miku x)

I found some off Amazon.  I checked Hobby Link Japan, but they were out of stock.

Hmmm ... besides Amazon, I have no clue.  Maybe find a Japanese source?

[Shaiyeh]

Syracid - HLJ was the first place I checked as that's where I usually buy.
I looked at AMazon, too (ta for the links btw), but I think there's a risk of gettin bootlegs there? also, they were way over retail, so I dunno, just feels a bit fishy :/

I just found a couple at Myfigurecollection, we'll see if I get answers. otherwise I might reconsider Amazon.

Eviecorn - been looking already and nothing, sadly :C

I'm checking all my nendo places, even the ones I don't like (otacute for one...klhdsdf), but I'm not seeing them anywhere but amazon.  =/

Good luck though!

[Shaiyeh]

Thanks souffalofagous! They were released in 2011 so they shouldn't be THIS. Hard to come by... I really don't get it. I didnt even think this anime was that's popular x)
Ahwell we'll see if I get answers on those I mailed about.

YISSSSSSS I have a Nymph Now just looking for Ikaros ^^'

[melodys_angel]

Snow miku.  NOW im envious.  Did you find sakura miku too?

Yeah, I dont follow that anime but my friend does so I instantly recognized those characters.  If I was going ot fan expo this year, I would have searched for you--there area atleast 5 or 6 venders that do seel these kinds of dolls and the alley is enormous!

[Shaiyeh]

haha, there's no real reason to be envious as the bootleg snow mikus and sakura mikus are all over eBay... I'm hoping to own the real deal (Snow Miku, all versions) one day... and bothe the real and bootleg sakura (because I don't want nendo petites and there's no full-size GSC Sakura Miku yet D:)
but I didn't find her, no :C otherwise, I'd have ought both or her over Snow, anytime.

haha alright David and I started watching it after seeing the DVD in the scifi bookstore in Stockholm. Thinking 'we'll prolly just watch like, 3 eps. this is bound to suck.'
actuallu... it's rather good. HUGE amounts of fanservice but you can'tt ake it seriously... and it has a great story and characters

good news, everypony! I paid for an Ikaros today. Now I'm just looking for Nymph. the sale on the one I found fell through :C

[melodys_angel]

*nods* I actually got him to explain the meaning of the melon cause I was curious (if it was like Miku and her leak).  It sounds interesting, I might take it in.

He got me into FMA that way o.o

[Shaiyeh]

Haha word of warning, though; it's cr-a-zy. especially s2. but I like it a lot
but you should try giving it at least 5 episodes before diciding if you're going to continue watching, because that's about where the story starts picking up.
