Which "holy grail" represents you as a personDiaryPrevNextPrevNext

I'm a little torn...the GEM Utena ITEM #171481 is maybe my favorite figure in my collection that also represents me and all that I love in character design and figures and anime due to sentimentality and it was a pleasant surprise she was even made but I struggle to call her a grail because I didn't have to hunt or sacrifice anything for her. I was able to just PO her since I was into collecting at the right time to be able to do so (of course the one I received from AmiAmi came missing a shoe lace somehow right there sealed in box so I'm forever a little bitter about it since back in those days AA customer service for US customers was nonexistent or a joke imho)

But my grail I did hunt for and save for and spend the most at the time for was my GSD Lacus AFC figure ITEM #11171. She was and still is a little rare and expensive and she's princessy and pink and perfect and lovely. Lacus and Utena are classically my favorite sentimental characters though I favor Utena over Lacus and Lacus is more just pure sentimentality at this point.

I'll always laugh that my two favorite anime heroines look almost exactly alike down to the swoop in their bangs.

easily has to be ITEM #26364 (which i purchased prepainted). she was my ultimate holy grail and she definitely represents me, i've always loved gothic fashion and 2000s era anime girls lol

Panda_Roll • 5 days ago • #125513373Add me to the "laugh" category. I was not expecting that but dear god does it have personality XD
Got her last year when she was spiking at $1000... in a local clearance sale for $80 brand new and sealed. My brothers told me to just turn around and sell it since it was such a hot item but I couldn't, MY PRECIOUSSSSSSSSSS!

You had me there for a second,such a steal of a deal! Truly it was meant to be x)

this is fun! a grail i think represents me is: ITEM #162402 i just think her aesthetic is everything i love in one figure, and you can tell a lot about my interests just from looking at her <3

ITEM #234939 Is my “this is me”, I’m sleepy all the time and would rather play video games; especially those which give me another “life” to make better.

Best girl from MGRP lol, I also have a tattoo of her.

Though I equally love all of my Homura Akemi garage kits. I would say this particular one ITEM #1427237 represents me.

I like to pretend the ribbon is like life trapping her. But she's still persisting regardless of the skewed world.

Yes, I've seen the movie of the scene that inspired that figure. I'm just adding my own twist to the scenario haha.

I already got my grail, but I wouldn't say she represents me. ITEM #115

To some of my friends from an online Gunslinger Girl forum I guess would say ITEM #13765 represents me, as a lot of them do call me my user name, Triela (or Tri) and she is my all time fave female anime character. We yearly go to a con as a big group to this day. :)

My grail that would represent me hasn't been made yet. :( I want a figure from any company to make a Max Caulfield figure from Life is Strange. Max IS me.

ITEM #14002 When i told my friends that recently i finally got my hands on him, all of them said something like "this was literally made for you" or "why didn't you find this earlier" and yeah, they're right. This is just peak character design and aesthetic for me, and i cannot imagine myself not having him aghahah
Another, much sillier "grail" is ITEM #287933 , R is one of the characters that I strongly associate myself with, and all of the people who ever saw him think so too lol. I even like that it's a figma, and not a cool looking scale or anything, just fits right in with how awkward we both are. cut my hands like 10 times while assembling his bike, but it was totally worth it

ITEM #460012 always.

Maybe one day she'll recieve a re-release.
Currently, she's priced at about 2,000$
