Kotobukiya was an entry point for me. I was surprised back in the day at their relatively inexpensive quality figures. They still maintain that reputation to this day. If you get the chance, I would hope that you ask them a question along the lines of how can they make quality figures so affordable? Even when their prices go up, they remain cheaper than most manufactures.
That's a great question!! I'll add it to the list 😄
Yea I don’t know how they’re so cheap, there’s a great example just out now. Go look at their new Asuka from Evangelion with ripped plug suit (I just got it), it’s ¥16k down from ¥20, and compare it with the new Good Smile Asuka with ripped plug suit, it’s ¥22k down from ¥26k.
The Kotobukiya is so much nicer, she’s laying down and the base is sand with clear resin looking like water coming in. The Good Smile she’s sitting on a rock and it’s just propped up with a clear resin stand. It’s ¥6k more expensive.
The Kotobukiya has much better likeness for Asuka and actually uses a scene from the end of the movie where she’s laying on the beach, the Good Smile looks weird because it looks like the rock is just floating in the air because of the clear resin stand.
@InfamyOrDeath-__- wow yeah that koto Asuka looks amazing! 🙌
Kotobukiya almost never disappoints with their figures!
Also, safe travels to their headquarters and congrats on the opportunity to do so.
Thank you! I'm so excited for it! 🙏🎉
Lovely care package from Koto! Love the Mega-chan as well! 😉 Expecting some crazy vlogs from the trip! 😆
Haha I've never made any vlogs so it'll be interesting!! 😆 super excited to go in general 🎉
I’ve been on the fence about the transformer figures since they were announced, but seeing this… I think I’m going to cave.
Aside from that, enjoy your time here in Japan! If enjoy steak, check out Ginza no Steak in Ginza; excellent A5 wagyu there.
The transformers figures turned out so well! 🙌 and thank you!! I've never tried A5 wagyu so that sounds amazing, thank you for the rec!
wow🤩 Kotobukiya figures are great too, but you are the most attractive😍 👍
Haha thank you 😂🥹
I love how Panda has his lil toe beans
The toe beans are the best! 🥹 and thank you very much!!
Joanne The Mystery Box Girl 😂 do me a big favor tell kotobukiya that make another Kakegurui Yumeko Jabami Scale figure or rerelease the one they made 4 years ago I've been wanting to get that figure 😊
Haha okay I'll try my best! 🤣
@@JoanneOfArc don't forget please Joanne you're the only who can tell them 😂 I'm sure you like to have one also there's a rumor more Yu-Gi-Oh scale figures are coming.
Well since you’re offering, if you haven’t gone already😅 I have an idea for Chun-Li figure which I would like to recommend to Kotobukiya, I’d like to know how I can get in contact with one of their figure drafting people so I can show my recommendation😁
That Megatron sculpt has attitude, they nailed the character! Still think Optimus is cutest tho.
My Prism Violet Evergarden finally arrived from Sugo, 8th from the end of the run. Just thought I’d mention it since I was previously saying how late it was, and Sugo deserve credit for getting the job done.
Optimus def a cutie, Megatron has different vibes for sure 😄 and yay congrats on getting your figure!! 🎉
Thank you so much, #JoanneofArc, for uploading this awesome unboxing video. I love your content so much because it's absolutely amazing, and I enjoy watching your unboxing videos.
Thank you Brian!! 😄😄🙏
You are doing the unboxing and i am doing some boxing, watching this while storing some things away, i need the space, badly :)
Many amazing figures, i wish i could get all of them myself, the best one is for sure the Nakiri Ayame figure statue, she is cool and gorgeous, i want it :)
The Jujutsu Kaisen section is growing in rapid speed, i hope to see an update how you have arranged the figures and such with all the new Jujutsu Kaisen stuff coming, something for the future. Keep up the great work Joanne, stay awesome and sweet! :)
Hi!! Haha space is an issue for me too at point 🤣 and yes the Nakiri figure is gorgeous! I've had to split my JJK collection into two areas since there are so many of them now 😅
I love how the transformers figures are based off of the old cartoon designs
Hi I wanted to know what is the glass door cabinet brand do you have
Joanne! Ur lucky 4 figs! On your visit with Kotobukiya pls ask and suggest the reissue of Ais Wallenstein and Shea Haulia..would be of great help!
Haha will do! 🤣
Kotobukiya is the only manufacturer that consistently uses magnet which should just be an industry standard since we payin for $100+ figures lol.
Magnets make assembly soooo much better 🤣🤩
Amazing! I would love to know if they are open to having consumers put in series/figure requests?
Ooo that's great! I'll add it to my list 🙌
Alright, you just convinced me to buy Megatron figure 😮💨
She's gorgeous 🙌
Great video as always 😊 Btw are u into model kits . I just preordered a mega man 11 Kotobukiya model kit figure . Im a huge fan of the series lol . Anyhow keep up the good work 👍
Thank you! I've never made model kits before but they look really cool! I hope you enjoy building it 😄🙌
yaaasss more good stuff and even more to come in Japan!! More luggage time! hehehe
I'm taking one extra bag just in case!! 🤣💯🙌
Great video! I’d like to know if they plan to do more Darkstalkers figures.
thank you! I'm curious about that too :D
the figure looks nice and beautiful like you
have a nice day friends
Hope you have a great day! 😄
Visiting kotobukiya head quarters 🤯 can't wait for that video ❤

You have not uploaded a video in a while.
Other than that a great haul well done i especially love that Megatron figure love it definitely an upgrade😊
Other than that a great video keep up the great work👍
And greetings from the Netherlands🇳🇱
Hi Didier! Everything is going well! I'm just very busy with work so haven't had time for additional videos. I'll be working on my next one soon though! Thanks for checking in and I hope everything is great with you too 😄
@@JoanneOfArc Glad to know that you are okay.
I have been busy myself so i can relate.
Take all the time you need and thank you for the answer.
Will you make another video or did you quit youtube? I really miss the chill, relaxing atmosphere of your videos. Hope you're doing ok.
aww thank you! I've been super busy with work lately so haven't had the time to edit, but I am working on a few and will be back!!
@@JoanneOfArc Good to hear! I'll look forward to them. Take care.
@@ant_989 thank you, you too!
Buenas figuras👌
Soon cute 💖🤩🤩🤩🤩🌟🌟🌟🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳💯💯💯💯🥳🥳🥳💯
😄😄☺️🥹🙏🎉
on your visit let them know we want that rerelease of my boy kyo kyo!! 😂😩
Hehe will do!!
I so wanna know how kotobukia picks what figures and series to do.
💯💯 Def on my list to ask
Man, I love them JJK figures! I’ve been on the fence of buying them myself!
They're amazing!! Also some of them are really discounted now on sites like AmiAmi! 🙌
Hope you are enjoying Japan! I actually like the Megatron the best, totally agree with the confident badass expressions! Her lilac color also matches your top ^^ the pale purple is beautiful and the blush and lips are the icing on the cake!
Japan has been magical! A lot of walking but amazing nonetheless 🤣🤣 and yes definitely agree the Megatron color scheme is top notch!
That megatron really does look so great
Agreed!! 🙌
that ayame is soooo beautiful T_T
She is gorgeous!! 🥹
Oh nice, 4 amazing figures, I absolutely love Kotobukiya, they’re my favourite manufacturer, they’re just the best on portraits & poses, they’re amazing.
They are amazing 🙌
Good stuff! Best wishes!
Thank you! 😄🙏
Kotobukiya spoils you so much! haha but they always send you a good bundle of figures~
Can you ask them the following?
1. If they will make Hololive Gen 3 figures?
2. If they will make figures for all Pokémon mainline games protoganist (male & female)? Will they rerelease old ones too? Secondary market prices are too much!
Enjoy your trip to Japan! Looking forward to your vlog 🤩
They really do 🥹🥹🙌
And yes, I'll add these questions to the list! Thank you! 😄🎉
piacere , molto carina
Grazie 🤩
Wow! I’m excited for your trip to Japan! That is so awesome!! You might have more than one video worth of info to share after that.
🤣🤣 I'm taking one extra suitcase so you may be right!
I love your videos😍
Thank youu 😄🥹🙏
i love Joanne of Arc
🥹🥹🥹
The figures look amazing, I love how detailed on Nariki, really like how they Capture Megatron likeness into bishoujo figure also also I hope that you have a safe trip to Japan and enjoy ur visit to thier Headquarters. And like always love the video and can't wait to see the next video...oh ask if they r planning to make a starscream Bishoujo Figure
Thank you alvaro!! 😄🙏 and haha starscream would be so cool! I'll ask! 😆
I absolutely love kotobukiya their figures are always amazing!! so sad I had to cancel megatron hehe she's so gorgeous. hope you have fun on your trip!! so exciting!
Ahh haha I've had to cancel a bunch of my orders recently so I understand the feeling 🥲. Thank you!!
I see nothing but W's here, all of these figures look GOOD.😭 Congratulations on getting a chance to visit Kotobuikya HQ, I as well as others are looking forward to the vlog. I've always wondered who or what determines the art (pose) chosen when it comes to sculpting scales. Safe travels Joanne.
Thank you so much!!! 😭🎉 and yes that's an excellent question! I'll be sure to ask if I get the chance ☺️🙌
Nariki is absolutely stunning among all the figures that have been unboxed. Maki has a distorted face and it looks bad imo. Megatron has a pretty colour palette in her design. I can say Transformer figures are decent. Overall what a great unboxing came from Kotobukiya.
Haha I can't say I agree with the distorted face comment having Maki in person 🤣 but yes the nakiri figure is stunning ✨️
That’s awesome about your trip. That’s really exciting
Thank you!! I'm so excited 😭🙏
I am beyond jealous Kotobukiya sends you these amazing boxes. Koto is easily my absolute favorite anime figure manufacturer.
They are amazing!! I'm eternally grateful 🥹
Unfortunately things got tight for me and I had to give up my Optimus and Megatron pre-orders. I really want them now lol
I've also had to drop a few pre-orders recently so I totally understand! Luckily koto figures seem to be pretty easy to find in the aftermarket if you're still looking in the future! 😄
Heloo 🎉
Hello 😄
Yeah, I liked Megatron way more than expected.
Can't wait for the suitcase figure haul from Japan 😊
Lool def taking my extra suitcase for this trip 🤣
@@JoanneOfArc I would protest your channel if you didn't!
@@AnimeWill 🤣🤣
the hololive figure looks amazing, you would think she was from an anime
She totally does! Character design is 💯
Safe trip to Japan Joanne and enjoy yourself to the fullest!
I been to Kotobukuya Akihabara a few times and always enjoyed myself. Its a great place to shop at.
Actually my question for Kotobukiya will probably be the opposite of what they are currently doing. It seems like some of the manufacturers are currently going into premium line and i like to know if Kotobukiya has such considerations - reason for asking being i always envision when Kotobukiya is already doing such good works on lower 'budget'; if they decided to go all out or at least elevate to the next level on selective pieces, it be exciting to see what they can accomplish.
Thank you so much! And ooo that's an interesting question! I'll add it to my list for sure 😄
@@JoanneOfArc thank you so much! And look forward to your uploads and shopping hauls from there! :)
What a impressive suprise box stunning statue's Joanne & enjoy your trip to Japan next month 💗🤍💗
Thank you so much Steven! I can't wait! ☺️🙌
@@JoanneOfArc ☺️💖
Amazing surprise box!!!! 😍
Thank you Aiksoon!! Such amazing figures here 😃🙌🎉
Nakiri looks beautiful! She reminds me of the yokai characters from Onmyoji I might have to pick her up! 😍
She totally does!! 😮💯 everything about her is exquisite 💖
@@JoanneOfArc have fun on your trip to Japan by the way and safe travels! Some others mentioned it in the comments I’m super jealous! Japan is on my bucket list of countries I want to visit! 😭
@tails300 I hope you have the opportunity to visit some day! I've been once before and it was magical 🤣✨️
Being early to the new videos feels so cool
🤣🤣 thank you for watching! 🙏
Better late than never 😅😂
Late for what? 😮
@@JoanneOfArc the video I think that is a weekly video right?
@nohadiab5521 I don't really have a schedule haha 😅😆
@@JoanneOfArc 😳
i love the koto bishoujo line i got a few horror/comics and fighting games bishoujos..
not a big fan of transformers but that megatron is a beauty also that hololive figure is stunning
😍🥰
The horror ones are so well done!! 🤩 koto makes such fun interpretations of series that one wouldn't expect 🎉
@JoanneOfArc i really want the one of the chainsaw massacre ones but they got expensive.. one of my horror fav ones is "hellriser"
@@Bloodomen2_collectibles I think the first one that caught my eye was the pennywise one! Such a nice design 💯
@JoanneOfArc just checked Pennywise one she really is a nice cute design but shes quite old 2017 so now shes a bit expensive to get
but il keep an eye for her
Il see if i can find a good price ✌️
@@Bloodomen2_collectibles best of luck!! 🙏
