Don’t forget it’s Comiket this weekend- perhaps Shingo is just *so busy* he just cannot work on HD.

Gosh we really should take this to the forums.

I don’t really know the reason behind it all, but it seems as if the site really is abandoned..

I’m glad I’m not the only one terribly disappointed to hear this. I checked this site daily for the past year, and it was by far the best source for English language figure news.

Here’s hoping for a return.

Yeah, as melodramatic as it sounds, it really isn’t easy for me either. I used to check this site at least twice a day automatically and I still haven’t been able to break that habit. I’ve been telling various people I associate with who play World of Warcraft that I now have a reason to hate that game since it now impacts me directly, though, of course I’m sure that’s not the only reason for the missing motivation.

You know, I’ve suggested it before, but the big problem is that there doesn’t seem to be other sites like Shingo’s around to fall back on unless you count visiting moeyo.com or akibahobby.net which of course are only in Japanese.

There’s always great figures at every WonderFest. That’s why it’s always a full house at every edition of the show.

For me, my favs are the Yamato’s new line of fantasy women drawings by famous western artists brought to 3d form.

Also, the nendoroid Yoko and the painted sample of Toranoana Donne Anonime.

Unfortunately, I think the Donne Anonime will only be available in Japan and not available to overseas customers via international shopping. Toranoana has so far not sold anything to overseas customers.

Looks like Alter has a full range of wonderful figures for release for the rest of the year and next year.

I need more cash… 8(

Good Luck in everything you do!

Well, it’s your call. If the site’s too much to handle, then it’s never too late to back down. If it’s just an issue of not caring anymore, then at least you let us know.

On the plus side, I don’t really care too much for figures anymore anyway, so I’m not missing out on too much! :P

Besides, there’s WAY too much to catch up on since the fall of the HD, so don’t even think of trying to get back onto that wagon! ^^ Start afresh if you feel the need to. Anything we can do to help, you know..

I hope all is well with you Shingo. Whatever is going on with your life at his moment I hope you are weathering it well.
