Bummer that this only seems to be available as a set - I'd like to add the Kino figurine to my collection, but I'm not interested in any of the others.

I'd buy it, except with it shipping in March 2013, that would violate my rule of no figures purchased in 2013, so I cannot.

Oh man...all those characters make the set so tempting to buy. I really would love to place an order for them - probably will have to go through a proxy.

So tempting....

I'll be moving in March, so I won't be able to order them either. Le sigh...

I bet these figures will be really cute. There are some good series represented! And, uh, Sister Princess.

The sensible thing would be to pool resources and form groups to split collections.

Or, you know, buy one and give the figurines you don't like to your friends; at less than ten bucks a figure it's not that hard.

LOL. "ASCII Media Works Celebrates 20 Years With 20 Super-Deformed Girls" would sound really bad to most people.

To be fair, that's exactly what I thought when I first saw the title.

Yea I think they really need to stop using the Super-deformed phrase, its sounds bad, just use Chibi. On top of that, how did they get the translation super deformed from chibi, does chibi mean something along the lines of little or small?
