Hmm a bit too large for my tastes :)
Was hoping my Yokatta order might arrive today but no luck.. either it appears tomorrow, or it's been sent to customs and arrives god knows when ;(

I'll be getting a big (~10) shipment from Yokatta next week. Not too much coming up at the moment after comiket craze has died down.. I might pick up some of the COMEX covers but still not sure. And there'll be the clochette cover in a while, but you already have that ofc Zengar.
Blog isn't showing it yet, but looks like the baseson cover has been on sale a while already:

Supposedly it's only the excess stock Fatalpulse had from comiket.. so maybe he keeps finding a new box of them that he forgot about hidden behind the couch, under the kitchen table, etc and sending them on ;(

Comiket(-ish) stuffs arrived!

Well, it's mostly the same as Zengar's loot, just less :p Oshikit Hitoshi cover, and the full Essentia set. Shipping box was huge to accomodate the Essentia bag without folding it up, which was nice. Also a second hand copy of an old Clochette cover which I've wanted a long time but the price is too high for the few unused copies out there still... Haven't opened it yet, but looks to be in good condition at an outer glance..
Anyways to make this more interesting than just being a lesser copy of Zengar's loot, here's the full Asuna cover by Essentia!

Really loving the backside on this one, just as I expected to! Also loving the Silica+Asuna microfiber towel in the set... Comiket largely was more focused on Asuna, need some more Silica love too!

Also, can you guys help me out? I'm trying to figure out whether or not the tapestry is still available with pre-order:
http://a.sofmap.com/product_detail/exec/_/sku=11915663/-/gid=AT01010000
If so, I'm all over this!
Pretty sure yes... but don't quote me on that!
Yeah I've felt like that at times too Kobun ;( If I try to believe that a lot of why people always want to include censor or sample banners is for avoiding bootlegs then it's not quite as annoying (or atleast my anger is redirected to bootleggers ;P). Though yeah the censorship bars are often placed to mislead, though there's usually enough hints from the surrounding imagery as to whether it will be censored or covered in some way or not (exception being when there's a random mosiac under it.. which is nightmare land :< ).
Found this for the Baseson cover Shashin, http://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/460200/blog/27529938/ not great pics, but at least gives a good impression for the back side. It's Baseson, so it's never going to be explicit (that red string going down between her ass cheeks is so definitely going to be covering everything) but I think it looks quite nice, I'll definitely go for it if there's a shop order.

Lovely batch of loot. Shame about the toes but I guess they're not really the focal point of the cover anyways.
The auctions I won seemed to all have very slow to ship sellers, so I'll not be getting them til next week.

I don't know what is wrong with the website, to be honest. I'm looking back to my last two dakimakura posts; the Mai Shiranui cover made it to top page but my Komachi one didn't. The Mai Shiranui seem to be more revealing, but it made it to front page. The Komachi cover didn't make it to front page, but I didn't get a warning either. The one thing that doesn't make sense to me is my recent post, which is the Kobato and Maria cover. That cover pretty much pushed the boundaries -- loli + scissoring and the exposure of the vags plus juice, in my book, thats pretty explicit(at least for a cover). I mean, it didn't make it to front page but what really surprised me is that I didn't get a warning like you did, Willow. I'm thinking the reason why you might of gotten something like that was maybe the emphasis on the vag, or it could just be how detailed the genitalia was.
You are right, Alamarco. The NSFW tag is pretty much a "enter at your own risk" sign.
I didn't get any warning either, I contacted support and only then replied to let me know what was the problem. Really, the mods should send an quick e-mail stating why a particular post was blacklisted rather than leaving people completely in the dark as they did. I think the reason I got a quick response to the support claim was that I filed it as a bug and so Danny himself checked it rather than the mods who probably check the normal support claims.
Here's the uncensored post btw:
http://myfigurecollection.net/blog/4031
I left it open to ratings, currently 21 interesting, 7 uninteresting. So Dakimakura are 75% popular!! or something :p

Willowywicca, the explicitness factor might explain the issue I've been having with Figure.fm. Though it still seems pretty strange/inconsistent. The only post of mine that is in the directory is my first Evening Call post, and it's about as bad as the other Evening Call post (I guess the Dizzy is a bit more detailed.) In your case it seems a bit strange because as far as I can tell, your previous posts have shown up on the front page when you've posted them. Unless that's wrong and you had to wait a bit for them to be approved, then it seems odd that this one post would not appear on the front page immediately either (and then be removed at a later point.)I guess I'll try doing a tamer post next time and see where it takes me. Though I never did get a response back from my support inquiry, so call me jealous. :P
I think your entire account gets flagged as blacklisted, so all posts will be hidden (as my Sale post got hidden as a result of the new collection post being explicit). You will probably have to contact support again and find out which posts to fix to get unblacklisted.
It's likely my post was very briefly on the main page before getting moderated, as I did get over 100 views by the time of your first comment, which is unlikely if it was never there. I merely didn't check myself to confirm it so can't know for sure.
Edit: Just noticed Danny just also tweeted a link to the Mirai Mark censor icon I was given to use on my post, so yep it was him who responded to my support request!
As Shashin already knows, my post today had the same disappearing problem that his has had. I mentioned in the post that they told me it was due to explicitness, for clarity here is the exact response I got (I think this is actually from Danny himself not a site admin but who knows!).
"Hey,
I leave it to the mods to decide but in these cases its definitely this
https://img.skitch.com/20120822-nuexa6aai63j5fw9nfx62tyhas.jpg
and the camel toes in the latest.
Oppai is fine but camel toe or inside-camel-toe is not.
Sorry about that ><"
I can't remember exactly what you guys (Shashin and Vietxmikey) posted, but I guess it fell into those lines somehow. A few rounds of censoring later and my account's posts are showing again. So, rather disappointing that that is why, but at least you know what to do to get them fixed if you want to..
For the future, I'm pretty sure that if you send Yokatta a payment of the item price plus ~900yen (their fee + bank transfer fee) they will buy an item immediately for you if you in the accompanying e-mail explain that it's urgent and you'll pay any remaining fees (shipping) as soon as they tell you what they are. They likely won't buy it if you just ask them to, regardless of your credit history with them.

Alamarco, it seems Toranoana have a few more of the Fatalpulse cover now, hurry and try your luck!
Looking forward to the Clochette one of course... I'm gonna guess you're going for the Evening Call one then Shashin? (purely from the timing of your post.. assuming that green girl is March).

In the far past no, they did not. However their last two covers, the Kanu wedding dress cover (ACE2012) and Tokugawa Yoshine (Winter in Akiba 2011), did get a web release. So it may be a sign that they've changed their policies recently. As such, I am expecting a web release of the comiket 82 cover, but will not be completely surprised if one never turns up either.
I e-mailed Otacute about the CranCrownBlack cover, and they have now added it to their site at a good price:
http://www.otacute.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=30259
1k shipping doesn't sound *that* bad.. nothing compared to your C82 damages anyway :P

Yeah I'd really like to know the other side of the Baseson cover, currently I'm sort of passing on it due to finances but if the reverse side is nice that could well change. At the very least, I hope there's some shots of it prior to if/when they do a web release of it.
The Dracuriot Elena one I actually half forgot about while still thinking whether or not to get it.. And then I noticed it was 13th August and their deadline for web orders was the 14th... But Yokatta actually came through quickly for once and I managed to place an order.

Yeah, I noticed that. My AX loot and the Kobato and Maria post never made it up there and they have less than 10 comments. But we can't really jump to that conclusion because I see people that has 0 comments and still make it to the front page. Aside from my recent post not showing up on front page, I still think loli just aren't people's cup of tea. My other posts(non-loli), they got a shit ton of views pre-front page. Willow is right, figure.fm loves them dollfies(or dolfies)! To brighten things up a bit, H.O.P. just announced another cover, Sailor Jupiter!
If you click just about any username on the front page, you'll notice they all have about 10-20 thread posts under their belt. So just like willowywicca, it's highly likely that their accounts have been "approved", and thus their posts will show up on the front page without any pre-screening.
Edit: Since I haven't had much luck at Figure.fm, I decided to try posting over at MFC: http://myfigurecollection.net/blog/4012
Wow more than a day without any posting.. you killed the thread Shashin!1 Just kidding :p I may start to post on MFC too in addition to Figure.fm
Heh, yeah, I do seem to do that. And there's only so many times you feel like editing one post with an update or whatever. :P I posted over at MFC mainly because my Figure.fm posts aren't getting any exposure. I don't mind if they don't appear on the front page, but it sucks when they don't even show up in the 2D Girls (which is where I usually post them) directory. The actual process of posting on MFC was a much bigger pain in the ass, but it was nice sharing.
Both of those look good. The second one is 2WT, right? I have the release from a few years back which was Smooth Knit, I believe.
The actual copies of Kimi are starting to popup on YJA, so we should getting ours soon enough. There's also one on the Mandarake JP site for 25k if anyone is interested. She seems to be going in the 20k range on YJA, but it would save the hassle of using a proxy, I guess. I know I'll be requesting an order with all of my special orders and C82 goodies as soon as I'm able to pay it off in a few weeks. Should be a good batch. ^^
Yeah the figure.fm problem is odd :( It's a shame as figure.fm has such a nice system for adding pictures and text.
Yep the Urotan cover is the recent 2WT re-release of that cover.
Cost aside (I really shouldn't be spending another 25k this month :p) for some reason the Kimi cover doesn't really appeal to me. It's odd since I like Kimi herself, and I like Anko's art style, but this particular cover I don't really like.

For now, to get things rolling again, here's some dakimakura pics:

I got as far as sending Yokatta the money but also didn't manage to make it in time for the Fatalpulse cover... It's probably for the best though, pretty over budget for this month already... If it pops up cheap somewhere in future I may go for it, but not too disappointed to have missed out on it just now.
figure.fm people mostly just like dollfies ;(
