If anyone would be so kind...

Hello. I am in a sort of a small dilemma and hope that a kind soul may give me some guidance. ^^;

I have been looking for a particular Lelouch/Zero figure for the past few months, and after much frustration, been quite unsuccessful in my search.

I have included a pictures of the figure below my ramblings. If someone knows where I can buy this lovely piece of work online, I would be eternally grateful. m(-_-)m

I hope it wasn't a limited edition figure or something... (0_o)
Thanks in advance!

I can't tell you where to find it, but it's produced by MegaHouse, and apparently the list price for it was 7600 yen. It was produced in 2009, so it's probably harder to find by now. I would check out Yahoo Japan's auction sites (you'll have to use a proxy service) or just troll eBay. If you have the name of the company and stuff, though, your search might be a little more fruitful. Sorry I couldn't be more help!

He was not a limited figure, but because he's a male figure, he's quite rare and expensive these days.

I recommend you periodically browse Mandarake (http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/), which is a chain based in Japan that sells second-hand figures and doujinshi, mainly. The site is updated daily with new stuff and comes on a first-come, first-serve basis. They usually have better prices compared to eBay, but rarer and older figures like this will still cost you some money.

As the previous comments have mentioned, this particular Lelouch figure is quite hard to find because this is one of the more popular figures of Lelouch. Aside from YJA and Mandrake you can try checking figure.fm once in a while. There are people who do sell figures there but I'm not so sure about Lelouch though. ~_~; but you might want to check in case you get lucky.

I've been wanting this Lelouch figure too... but I missed the PO last year ;~;

Good luck to you!

If you go to any anime conventions, take a look around the dealer's room. I picked mine up on the last day of Otakon last year (literally five minutes before the dealer's room closed) and managed to haggle down the price. Scour ebay every now and then, and I also second following MyFigureCollection to see if anyone puts him up for sale.

I really hope you manage to get your hands on one. It's totally a worthwhile figure. ^_^
