There's an extreme lack of good quality, easy-to-find video game figures, and after seeing people make their own I'm tempted to try it myself

I'd say I'm fairly new to figure collecting, but that doesn't mean I'm not ever so slightly embarrassed about the sheer number I've got sitting next to my desk as I write this. That won't stop me from spending hours sifting through the shelves of shops like Surugaya or Book Off to find the perfect Hatsune Miku to add to my ever growing collection. To some I'm sure my display cabinet is still showing rookie numbers, but there's no denying that there's a satisfaction to getting a new figure for something you really love.
