Saan ba nakakabili ng figures? Meron sa SM kaso konti lang. Sana kung meron, mas mura sa 119 pesos ng SM.
Or baka may willing magbenta jan ng second hand. ;D

I used to buy them in Gift Factory (SM North EDSA). 25 pesos each. more than 150 nabili ko dun. hehehe. well, i advise you not to buy those 119 php because they only have the same quality as those sold in 25 pesos. malulugi ka lang. Nwala na sila eh. Sana bumalik. I need to expand my collection! PS. Prof said na merong ibang branches ng gift factory. try checking the other branches out. Meron din akong nakita beside gift factory sa SM north, dun sa hobby shop located at its left side, katabi nung trophy place. overpriced lang nga....

Do you mean the original Pokemon figures or do you mean the China made ones? Because most toy stores (Toy Kingdom, Toys R' Us, Kids World just to name a few) have those in stock. But to get your own SPECIFIC Pokemon is another question.

I checked them out. I think they're china made. THe orig ones are the more expensive rip offs (sa presyo). Quality is almost the same. Just needs patience to look for a good one. Pero may orig (bulba) ako and i compared it to the same pokemon na china made, the craftsmanship is almost the same. mas maganda nga ang pagkakapaint nung cheaper bulba ko. he he.
Salamat talaga sa nagsugest dun sa Gift Factory. Laking SM North ako, but I didn't have the slightest idea.

Yeah, it is not Official, but my point is, why waste money on some price rip-off, right? I mean, ung nagproproduce nung Pokemon figurines in box and the ones not in the box are the same people. Either way, they profit. (And, that gives them a reason to continue the production). Lahat nung figurines ay made in China, BTW.

it doesnt matter. The company (Pokemon) it self doesnt earn the money. The Chinese factory does

Do you know any shops that sells the orig ones pero di sing mahal ng sa SM pwede na cguro ang 50 to 70 pesos.
Sa Best Toys sa greenhills meron kaya?
Sa official website ng pokemon, hindi pala lahat ng pokemon may binebenta online. Walang eevee at vulpix, kaya pala wala rin sila sa mga nagbebenta ng cheaper figures.

I have bought both figures in a box and not in the box. Some really has quality but some has some minor problems. The cheap Pokemon figures have helped me have a good number of Pokemon figures with that size in my house. More than 200 (though I do believe Kamae has a lot more than that). If you want to have em all but you are in a strict budget then I suggest you getting the ones that are only 25 pesos. I have several small Pokemon figures that I keep in my room but what I do with them is I keep them in the box when I display them. Like most toys... the ones that are left in the box are more valuable in terms of collectors value in the future. It's your choice! I enjoy having a mixture of both. Well... you should still buy the 119 cause IF we all stop buying those stuff then we might just see no more cheap ones because Tomy has just stopped making them. So if you have the cash go get yourselves the 119 toys.

@pete: I don't think there are originals (as in those in the box) that costs somewhere between 50-70. Your best choice is surplus. (That means I advice you to buy the 25 peso ones. ;D Just look for the shop called "The Gift Factory". I've seen branches in Glorietta 4 and in SM North EDSA. ) I saw some figurines in CATS (Well, it's located in the Bridgeway shops. Try looking for some in there. I saw some before. They sell the figurines for 50 pesos. I just don't know if CATS is still alive. ) Some info you might want to know... When I went to Rockwell in about early June, I saw this little boy named Antonio (I think he's a bout 6 years old.) who buys (and collects) those 119 peso figurines in "Kidz Station". ;D The sales clerks even know his name because he buys 2 of those figurines everyday! Haha... BTW, I have an eevee (even the evolutions: vaporeon, flareon and jolteon) and a vulpix figurine. I got them also from "The Gift Factory". I suggest you try your luck searching for the Pokemon you like in there. Good luck in your Pokehunt!!!
