Fact was I did not have any explicit nudity or anything like that.It just seemed a bit suggestive so I had to take them out.I do not have any problems with it of course but it was the visitors thet kept asking questions and my family was not OK with it.Now they are back to their boxes.Poor figurines.They could not escape racism due to their beautifulness and sexuality |

Agreed. This is novelty stuff. I'm happy for anyone ballsy enough to actually own and enjoy it, but I draw the line at price gouging like this. |

I have many PVC figures myself. Many, if not the majority, are more harmless. There are however some lolita figures and some T&A figures. Hello Ikki Tousen, Queens Blade, & a few other random ones. I have a small curio cabinet in the family room with some of the favorites (and some old Franklin Mint dragon sculptures I have), but the rest are displayed on 2 wall mounted bookshelves in plain sight in the hobby/guest room where all the manga is. My opinion is it's me and my gf's house so either one of us can display whatever we want wherever we want. And yes, many of the QB and IT figures do have removable clothing. I leave it on simply because taking it off would take away half of the appeal of the figure to me. Not for any "modesty" related reasons. |

It helps that my circle of friends consists of anime fans and geeks in general. My girlfriend even has figures, posters, and plushes of her own. The only people who aren't into it that come over would be my parents, but they know I'm into anime so it's no surprise to them, and most of it is in the den and my bedroom anyway. My dad has a ton of sports memorabilia at his place himself so he knows how it is. -Stuart Smith |

That'll be $3600. Thank you for your business. The price seems to be somewhat on the higher end for an oppai/oshiri pad, but I've seen special exclusive ones go for around this price a lot. I've spend way more than that on one package of a few figures, but I'd never spend it on a mousepad. I did buy a $20 fanmade pad once as a joke, but it ended up feeling so good on my wrist (I have wrist issues and thought it would more cut curculation off), I used it a lot... until a few months later, the gooey, sticky substance started seeping out and it lost its shape. I had to toss it, which was a shame. I'm assuming if you can dish out the money, a higher-end pad would be best.
Don't worry. Keep them safe in their boxes until you live on your own and can do what you like. My parents were iffy about some of my figures, too, but once I was out of the house, they couldn't tell me not to display them. In a way, if almost felt like I had somehow just got them brand new. The feeling of showing them off in the open is a good feeling.
That's the spirit! Though, on a serious level, it's both merchandise and art. Indeed, you can appreciate it for what it is if you don't have personal reservations against it, but you don't have to if you don't understand it. Sure, it IS pretty neat in a way and the fact that it's accessible to anyone who can afford it means it can be appreciated by more, but it's mass produced and sold for promotion and such, so feel free to dislike it for that as well. |

Yet people have paid upwards of 4 times that much for DLC and skins... Also in regards to the comments on "pervy Japan" I think you'll find far worse in the darker parts of your own country. Japan isn't any more perverted as most other nations they're just not as fearful of sex as most of the anglosphere. |

For that price, the tights better not run unless you want them to run!
How are they any different from a body pillow? The rule of thumb should be that both items are ok to have, but if you take either out as a date to a coffee shop, people might look at you funny... |

Why would you ever say such a thing? That can't possibly be true. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eytAJ3D2Xoc |

You don't have to lug something that large around. All you need to keep people away is to sit at a table and carry on a conversation with people who are not there. (I've actually seen that)
The bit in the video of the guy wearing two hats was a nice touch. |

Doubles as a two-handed weapon, strength proficiency bonus +4 (dex -5) with 1d6 bludgeoning dmg. Actually, roll to hit 1d4 because it is an improvised weapon, but said wielder has used it before.
No proficiency bonus in your Charisma however, remains -5000. |
