I think the Look Up series is perfect for people who want their favorite characters in a chibi style, but without the articulation and hassle of a Nendoroid.

[@LeggyLift]

If you do another video like this, I’d love to see your take on the Toonize figures! I love how bright and unique they are

[@alejandromagana9327]

I just got the toonize Zenitsu recently and I am in love😫 they give me Panty and Stocking vibes

[@LeggyLift]

@@alejandromagana9327 It really does have those vibes!! I can totally see P&S coming out in the future. I only have the Ed Elric one rn (I’m not really into the other anime they’re using) but I’m definitely keeping an eye out for more!

[@alejandromagana9327]

@@LeggyLift ohhh i really want ed and al😩 ed’s grin looks wonderful🤣🤣

[@azureblueotaku]

19:33 I think she turned out fine. I don't mind the other details as long they get the face right. FuRyu is mostly a hit/miss with their prize figures..especially those noodle stoppers 😅

[@LBL_]

Gojo's mouth did look slightly off center but it wasn't distracting. I hope you do more affordable figure unboxings like this, it definitely got me interested in those look-up figures.

[@ReplicantAmi]

That Maple PUP turned out so cute! I've been afraid to order any more PUPs because of the quality issues... Too bad that FuRyu Miku was a miss because that design is adorable. 😢 I also got the JJK Look Up figures but tbh I'm so torn on them! I love the idea (like you said, they're perfect for lower shelves) and the pics are sooo cute, but I find the size a bit off-putting for some reason? I think they'd be cuter to me if they were smaller. I'm glad you liked them though. Thanks for the video!

[@ivy5554]

I have that Sweets Miku too and she definitely is more blue than mint which was kind of a bummer, but I do love her and the design. Not too many details but her paint was clean.

[@nighteyesiv]

Ok you've sold me on the look up series, I didn't think they'd be worth the price by dear god they are so cute 🙈

[@rurikaadachi6405]

Great video, as always. "They just sit there and look cute!" Well said! The posability of Nendoroids is very important to me, which is why I have stuck with them all these years, even when more alternatives became available. New lines come and go, but Nendoroids have been around forever and their popularity is still rising. There is comfort in knowing that there will always be more, the cast from that special series you love may get released one day in their entirety, and quality parts for original designs.

[@regsclee8153]

The jujutsu kaisen lookups are so cute! I literally paused your video and went and ordered one.

[@azusitajr5501]

Usually furyuu figures come with a LOT of missprints and bad details 😭😭 i prefer sega for prize figures ❤️ they come with less missprints and are fairly good shaded for prize figs!

[@lokksiders__2151]

I'm looking forward for Sega new Figurizm lines. Especially the Onee-san Jeanne. 😍 The fate mash spm figure was a pretty good for the price.

[@azusitajr5501]

@@lokksiders__2151 indeed!!!! ❤️❤️

[@ivy5554]

I have the opposite problem, all the Sega figures I've gotten are sooo rough I actually refuse to buy them anymore 😅

[@azusitajr5501]

@@ivy5554 it must be luck then 😭😭😭

[@raynbot882]

My Megumi had a bit of a misprinted face too. His mouth is way off centered and kinda angled. I also accidentally decapitated Yuji when I opened him up XD

[@Poor_Mikey]

whyyyyy do pop up parades have to have such ugly bases? It's so frustrating to me. The general drop in quality is also a turn off 😅 But there are still some good ones to be fair

[@Armbrust210]

Ohh using the Trash Taste track here, nice nice

[@TsurenaiYoru]

i thought the Miku mint cupcake was the best figure, i loved it

[@sotogawaa]

My GSHello Miku came with a broken pigtail too :( wish they had them separate to snap on like the nendo petits did

[@holofan4994]

Umamusume getting a line of look up figures might actually get those. Also I think the Nekopara pop up parade figures are the best in that line of figures. Also great video as always.

[@phoenyck]

Actually am using Hobby Genki today so the sponsor is a huge help! :D (I'm getting the pokemon GEM EX Dialga and Palkia figure if anyone's wondering)

[@DL-idk]

Idk why but I always prefer chibi cute figures over scales It's probably very unpopular but well, personal preference is weird

[@apexquid5888]

You inspired me to start my own channel, hopefully one day I’ll be big enough to do a collab with you!! Hugs from Portugal!! :-3

[@AVLadle]

The trash taste music be messin with my brain. Thought I was watching the podcast for a sec XD

[@Krolshi]

4:43 Yeah there's a misprint lol: the smile is off to the right more (facing him), and the irises are the same it's just that left eye is placed higher than the right. It's easier to tell if you line a pencil or something straight up to it to check for symmetry. Really sorry you got a misprint they look so cute too. I'm def gonna order the evangelion ones and crossing my fingers they double check for quality when released 😭

[@montseceron6171]

I looooove the Look Up figures, i ordered Fushiguro and it's on his way now and I hope I can order Satoru too, they are so cute!!! ca't wait to have him with me 😍💕💖

[@liarodriguez9119]

Gojo's eyelids is what is off, it looks like a eyebrow up kind of expression (Picture The Rock) but not done fully so it looks off. It was either a miss on the expression or an error

[@RebeccaR1014]

lol my Len Hello! Good Smile figure was reeeeealllyy hard to get on the base as well... so much so that I ended up breaking his hand off in the process 😅 luckily it has a peg insert design so it'll be easy to fix, but still, I'm kinda bummed about it.

[@Iron700man]

I recently got into figure collecting and one of my first choices was a couple of look up figures as they were the cheapest figures I could get from Naruto I than added 2 more as they are so adorable.

[@CutiePandaa]

My sister has the Shinobu Look Up figure and it's mouth has been printed off centre. I def think your Gojo has some alignment issues with the mouth and eye too, which is a shame :(

[@Dana_N_Collects]

I've preordered Hello!Goodsmile Miku! I think she really looks cute online, I hope she holds up in person. :) I'm sorry Mint Chocolate Miku had issues :'( Sadly, Furyu Miku's are usually not as nice as Taito's, unless they're noodle stoppers. Great video!

[@GreedSama_]

I just got my first small figure recently a figma. Getting a nendoroid later this year. The lookup figure look nice theirs heads look huge.

[@brianagorgeousanimecharacters]

Very adorable i had plush Sakura Miku and Sakura chibis toys too i got delivery since 2019 and 2021. They're so adorable

[@durren1061]

tbh i cant see what youre talking about with the mint chocolate miku 😅 she looks great and detailed to me

[@staceymarusa4920]

I think the mouths on the Hello! line of figures bother you because they look like fish mouths to me. I'm pretty sure that's not what Good Smile was going for but now that I realized that's what they look like I can't unsee it, lol.

[@kega19]

Other option for small figures is Figuarts-mini, i want to check those since the Figuarts Zero line is very very good but becase of the pricetag im debating if i should just get a nendoroid. Also i have mixed feelings about PUPs, only got the Shiro Sniper ver. in the re-release but i'm not a fan of her, i though about getting the Haikyuu ones but they do look rough and i want to give the line a second chance by getting the Shiro crown ver. but i'm not sure. About taito vs furyu, i like the Bicute bunnies i think they are pretty good but in general i feel taito does a better job.

[@idiotoninternet]

So you skipped the Cinnamon pup? I got her because I knew it would annoy me to miss only one of the girls and last time the aftermarket was insane for the vanilla and Chocola pups so I didn’t want to risk it! I’m so so excited to have the last two come in

[@weena2062]

what you said about the Hinata and Kageyama pop up parade figures is absolutely correct. I have them...and I do love them because they are my only pop up parades, but they are not as cute as they could have been ^^' and I also don't like their bases...but maybe I'll change that at some point ^^

[@sleepynyanfigures]

omg yesss i got a s/o!!! 💕 also, those look up figures are actually really adorable.. tempting 🤔

[@Shan-si2kq]

Can't wait to see the look up Uma figures!! I wonder if they'll do the racing outfits or school uniforms...

[@Kamaboke]

I appreciate your review on the Hello! GSC products, probably won’t buy them unless it’s one of my faves, great video as usual!

[@tails300]

They remind of what Kikagoods does with the blind boxes. I do have some of the Genshin Impact ones and the look great!

[@Misiuduo]

So cute!!! I love these new smol figs!

[@sleepybear3180]

i loveee the look up figures! they're super adorable! :)

[@BasementDwellerPip]

These were all so cute! I'm definitely curious to see how the L and XL PUPs come out.

[@jereki4995]

THE LOOK UP FIGURES ARE SOOO CUTEEE ❤️😫 i want megumi since he’s my fav but the price

[@benlin1526]

I'm kindof an artist, and when you see those little imperfections, its a bit infuriating and hard not to notice once you see them. lol

[@kasper2917]

0:06 her australian accent coming thru "u guyss"

[@ALBERTSTARK1]

Hello 👋very nice all figures but i loved the last one, great video ✌💯

[@Hana-dc7fz]

Your gojo could be a misprint issue, you might want to try looking to replace him!

[@rambo3rd471]

No Cinnamon Pop Up Parade? Hers turned out really well imo. One of my favorites.

[@dygoldenflower1129]

4:44 i think Gojo looks okay, his irises aren't imbalance imo, maybe because the irises were too close to each other instead of in the center of the eyes.. The mouth just slightly slightly off the center, but I think you can pass this off as a smirk, when usually it titled the mouth to one side.. Well when you said an off the center mouth, then the mini figure of Hello Good Smile was the answer.. (sorry I don't like their mouth design too, it's way too off!)

[@Mimi-pt6gy]

Are you planning to get the Yamato EX Figurine from EX Girl’s Collection- Glitter of Ha? It’s actually Ichiban Kuji figurine. I’m planning to get it since I’m a big fan of Yamato and she’s too beautiful

[@slivereyes2015]

I have the little Rin hello figures I need to get Len and miku

[@ivy-online5824]

marni nendo i’m going crazy i’m going feral aaaaa marni nendoroid i neeeeeed

[@xurkipoo]

Holy fUCK the b roll of the lookups is so cute

[@chrishi520]

I actually love the Look Up series and these four especially compared to the ones from other IPs, so I also love that you also got them and are enjoying them! For your Gojo, when comparing to the one i have, I do think the right eye's pupil is kind of lop-sided and not a perfect circle? so it seems it's just a quality control issue :(, maybe you could get his replaced? I really like having him with the non-blindfold head Some other things with the Look Up series is that I personally think the Demon Slayer ones are a bit hit or miss. Zenitsu and Inosuke's look perfect imo, while some like Mitsuri's look very questionable in design? Idk why but they made Mitsuri's Look Up figure look very "clueless," that's the nicest way I can put it :( Otherwise those four are solid and I kind of think all JJK fans should have them lol

[@thedorkydeviant]

I have the Digimon Megahouse Looking Up Series Agumon and Tailmon on Preorder and they are PRECIOUS, my heart ;-;

[@yofrancisco]

What spirited away duck/ootoori-sama plush is that in the background?

[@KaiZho888]

I think for to Gojo I’m the first part of the video, the right eye is printed lower than the left

[@professorlorenspokemon6152]

Just picked up my first Detolfs today for my bunnies and there's like a stupid near-invisible residue on all the glass from the stickers :/ tried Dawn, goo-gone, razer blade, windex, ugh

[@mcq1z]

I forgot to add that I checked Mandarake but most of my figures are sold out. I'm worried that the price that is listed is old? It seems much lower than what I currently see on Ebay?

[@Armbrust210]

I don't see why the Look-up series is better than the sitting nendoroids

[@mcq1z]

I just bought a huge collection of these figures. Over 60 mint in box never removed. Most are from 2015. Aside from Ebay, I literally have no idea how to price these. Some of them are quite large (SAILOR MOON. USAGI & TUXEDO MASK in large clear box from Figuarts Zero. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

[@I_love_dr_stone]

should have called them minihouse figures

[@linusgustafsson2629]

I don't believe there are cheap anime figures. Though I guess some are cheaper than shipping these days.

[@chrisgoldsworthy8785]

In New Zealand they are charging $75 each.

[@tails300]

Speaking of mini figures, has anyone seen the Mini Figure 100 versions of of Chocolate and Vanilla? I’m think of picking them up as alternatives to nendoroids.

[@tomathepolliwog]

The jumbo Kirby Otamatone is also an important item cause he's just so chonky. he doesn't sound like kirby though. (exactly the same as yours) how did you get your pop up parade maple before meeee ;-; *sniffle* she's so cute

[@hatsunemoco]

i literally had the same problem with my miku 😭

[@hewhewhewhew172]

These ugly pop up parade bases must have some sort of 'nendoroid stand' planned in future lol

[@cadence_la]

I think Gojo's eyes aren't aligned or one isn't as open as the other. And yah his mouth is a bit off center D: I'm still waiting to receive mine in the mail. Maybe got lost at sea XD But I adore the Look Up line. Way too precious~

[@emab3028]

I wouldve been SOLD on the otamatone if it sounded like her 😭

[@johnnypollack3243]

Love the video

[@inugirlz4474]

I really love the Look Up series but I’m going to avoid buying one so I don’t end up collecting all of them xD I’ll stick with my army of Nendoroids. UNLESS my favourite characters got one. But unlikely 😭

[@vee88888]

the thing that irks me with look up is the price point. i wanted the hololive ones coming out, but they are literally more expensive than the nendoroid, and for what they are i don’t see them as worth it. the bodies really don’t have much detail, and they aren’t ugly, just hate the high price point

[@cespizz]

I hear that TrashTaste theme at some point in the background

[@Debondevyl]

Look ups are so cute but their prices put me off 🥺

[@3tacoman]

Is that a miku bong ?

[@NEET_201]

i never knew i needed a miku otamatone LMAOOO

[@sarahthomson878]

I loved the figures you showed today, but apart from Nendoroids, I'll probably stay away from them. Especially since I'm on a limited budget. Hobby Genki doesn't seem to have a currency option for the UK (GBP) so it leaves me concerned that even if I used your 5% code, I'll end up paying currency conversion fees anyway so it isn't worth it. Americans and Europeans are all good though, it seems! Shame I can't use your code.

[@dixievibing181]

hello!

[@azusitajr5501]

I think the hello good smile figures look ninda creepy cause they dont gave eyebrows nor eyelashes, at least to me they look off , like i would life on fear with those behind me while i sleep. Cute but creepy.

[@azusitajr5501]

Also for me pop up parade figures are a no no so far, i have the full RWBY set and Ruby looks stunning, amazingly shaded the cape is 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 but the last two are just chonks of plastic without shade and poorly sculped. I recommend you look at Blake Belladonna pop up parade pictures by buyers cause damn girl, she rough af 😭

Is that Trash Taste music I hear?

[@snazzybull]

Why do the PUP bases have to be so ugly. It'd literally be better just to have a clear translucent base than these huge ugly nightmare hexagons.

[@PennyQuill]

I can't agree on that choco mint Miku. You're being too dramatic, she turned out fine.

[@arturostm8960]

Sup People God bless u haha, dudeeee third comment hahaha

I wouldn't buy those new ugly figures from GSC even for one yen. Who can buy something like that? 🤪

[@krisuler7734]

Why do Westerners always have to make everything creepy...how on earth are the Look Up figures ..creepy lol? what on earth...especially since you kept saying how cute they were so what was the point of claiming it was creepy for whatever reason 🙄

[@em84c]

I don't think the adjective of creepy is unique to the west?

[@ordinerii]

Stop dissing funko pops lady! Nah I get it, but I still do like some of them. Side note: Furyuu makes some really cool alt design prize figures, just wish their details weren’t always so bloched. So hesitant on their JJK lost in paradise figures 😣

[@Christendom88]

The worst of the Look Up figures is still better than the best Funko Pop. Funkos shouldn't exist.

[@em84c]

yea i don't get those funko pops at all!
