Hi Guys,
Just wondering as to how many guys here are from the Philippines...
Maybe we can help each other out in collecting Shinkis...

Am one... got 4 shinkis all from
greattoysonline (aka Star Sports Korea), with branches at Libis, Greenhills, Makati and Alabang (forget the main branch, that serves as a storehouse that delivers to branches).

I went there and i saw Maryceles... but she wasnt the one i was looking for... there were a lot of people in their branch at GH when i went there so i wasnt able to ask if they take orders for stocks they currently dont have?

you can always call or sms the branches... check their site for the phone numbers... me, I go to Alabang, since it's near (Batangas). Last I checked (mid-Feb) they have Xiphos, Juvisy, Vespelio, Tigris, Grapprap... just stay away from Baby Razz (she's mine!).

they have Baby Razz..... omfg!!! The only sad thing is they don't get shinkis that often. all of my purchases their were just by chance.

hmm, are there other stores selling shinkis too? I only got mine from balik bayan box.(already setup)
Are there also some shinkis in hobby stores?
It's really hard to find some here in the philippines.
I wish I have time to go to japan and buy some for myself to make a collection.
I don't care if some of the shinkis that I'm gonna buy are fake, I just want to trying it out first, but is there another brand that also produces shinkis but costs lesser than that of konami's?

As far as I know, only greattoysonline sell shinkis here, since malls don't usually sell stuff that aren't easily recognizable by the general public. I don't know of any other hobby shops that sell them, though I would definitely want to see more that do.
Fake shinkis? I've heard that there are some out there, but searching for them around Divisoria will lead no results (though I've only frequented 168 Mall where bootlegged figures of all kinds are available), but I could be wrong. They could be nice to have though, if just for the extra parts and modding experimentation, but don't expect their faces to look right (seen too many bootlegged figmas and nendoroids with faces unrecognizable and/or deformed).

I've seen some in special toys merchandise I wish they sell for a bit lower price.(all of the people in sulit.ph that have these are overpricing them too much.)
I only saw

there, dunno if she's expensive.
Cause I also want to buy

and

especially

(if I change her hair color, she really resembles Saber from Fate/Stay Night)
