@ Collector_Draylo
Ive rearranged a few times but the first pic is current. Collecting for a few years now, just started with only Kanto and then decided to stop at gen3 and legendary/mythics. I do have others from diff gens but i liked these most.
I know its crowded. And i couldnt show all of them due to picture limit. But hope some enjoy 😁
Edit: So on where I got them, I have been posting this but I'll add a little more info here
The majority of these that aren't bandai scale world are imported from China from third party studios. They aren't "bootleg" they are simply studios in China that produce them, I would call them third party unlicensed.
I got most of them thru a now closed site that imports them and adds a middle man fee to the price. That site got shut down because he ran away with peoples money. You basically have to leave a deposit, wait months and then when the figure is ready they ask for the remaining balance and shipping fee. This obviously means you are putting faith in that seller to fulfill the order, so choose wisely.
Its quite expensive and they are super fragile and break easily, so you must learn repair skills with glue and paint. The shipping fees are always expensive from China and now with the tariffs they are even more expensive as they add that to the overall price. Many of these resin sites try to slip even more profit by upcharging on shipping so be careful there too.
The most reliable places now that I shop with are:
figurechoice.com
pokegalerie.com
Keep in mind both sites charge more than the figures actual price in China, so they are middle men. They do help when there are breaks or you need info on assembly, etc. I know a lot have gone thru other means to buy directly from China.
Keep in mind also, these are resin material. Super super fragile. Importing them from China, you WILL get breaks, no questions about it they will end up broken a lot of the time. You have to learn repair skills with paint and glue, which isn't really that hard. Matching paint is hard, but the glue part is mainly what you will need to do and its not bad.
I use a glue and spray combination with someone helping me to spray while I hold the part down that I have glue on, here is the spray:

There are more reliable studios than others, everyone has differing opinions on them. Most of my favorites are from
Limousine studio (very expensive but the sculpt quality is insanely good.)
HH studio
BQG/Moment Studio
Pallet Town Studio
Ace Studio
Do not ever buy these from sellers in China off Ebay, they are marked up 50%+ of the original price.
If you buy from other collectors, you will probably want a video beforehand if its really expensive. They are almost always with defects that you should know about before deciding to purchase, its just the reality of this hobby because they are extremely fragile, can't stress that enough.
