>>9579926>because i know the sort of product i should expectI mean this without malice, maybe you should start expecting BJD's to cost a lot of money as well? Because, yes, BJD's are expensive, that's just a reality of the hobby, the reality of how dolls are made.
I'm an anime fan too, and I get there's a bit of a jump between like, a $30 prize figure and a $600 garage kit, but you should consider why you're okay with a $600 garage kit, and then consider that logic with BJD's as well. Artistry, materials, difficulty, intricacy, even brand all can apply to BJD's the same way they do with expensive anime figs.
Yes I'm trying to save up for 3 $600 anime figs so it's on my mind haha.
