Does anyone know anything about Power Anime?

They seem to be alright, but I want to see if anyone has had any shipping/order troubles or even product troubles. I am looking to buy anime figures from them, so if anyone has ordered a figure from them it would be a plus to hear your review.

Thanks for the help.

P.S.

Or, if you could recommend another site to purchase these figures:

Negima Gashapon

Fate/Stay Night Trading Figures

FMP! Kaname and Tessa

Also, if anyone knows a site to get an Evangeline figure from Negima, that would be a plus.

I haven't purchased from them yet. Their prices seem a bit high to me. However I know on those Negima gashapon set you have listed I have seen that same set for $10 on numerous auctions on ebay. Most of the shipping is $8 to $10 so it would still be cheaper on ebay.
Course I like to bargain shop so I end up making most of my figure buys on ebay anyway.

Alright, another question then.

I've read a lot about bootlegs, but how common are bootlegged figures? I am hesitant to purchase anything from eBay, to tell you the truth. Especially if it says it is from Hong Kong or somewhere like that.

So far I have only had one experience of getting a bootleg Sailor moon figure. Of course at the time I didn't know there was such a thing so I didn't know what to look for. I seem to have good luck purchasing from ebay but I know some people don't.
My best advice is never buy anything without seeing the picture! Smile

Sorry but i cant help you there. I've never bought anything from that site. Im probably going to be buying that kick-ass Revolotech Unit 01 statue, so ill tell you how it is when i get it, i cant find it on any other site. By the way, thisll be my first statue ( Embarassed ) so i, like Webki, dont know how to spot a bootleg of the figures. When i get it i wont be able to know the difference. Any other tips? Help is appriciated because i really want to get this statue. Thanks a lot!!

I always order my figures from HLJ or Ebay. The cheap shipping from HLJ can take up to a month or so though.

They also seem to have the Negima gashapon, didn't see the other stuff, but I also didn't look too hard.

Ahh, thank you so much for that Lasco. I have heard about HLJ, but I forgot about them. Also, thanks for the link. I ended up finding the Fate/Stay Night figures as well, and RightStuf has the BOME Kaname and Tessa.

Ahh, good. I have a trusted site to order from. Thank you so much.
