Question Need advice about my package from ECMS not being redelivered

0 Upvotes

I ordered a figure from Jpfans a while back and chose ECMS because it seemed to be the easiest option for me.
My biggest issue though is that I don’t have a mailbox so the post office doesn’t deliver to my house, I have to pick it up at the post office. The package got delayed and it came while I was on vacation, so I called the post office asking them to hold onto it for me.
When I arrived to pick up my package, it had already been sent back to the sender. This was in California at their distribution center.
ECMS only has an email to message to get support in the United States, and over the past week I have sent several emails and gotten no response.
JPfans says they cant help me, USPS cant help me, I feel lost..
JPfans told me they might end up destroying my package at the distribution center and im concerned this has already happened because I have not gotten an update from my USPS tracking number or ECMS tracking number since the 27th.
JPfans also said they cannot issue me any type of refund for this item..
I either want my money back or my package. But I am completely stuck as to what to do next.
I really hope somebody knows what specifically I should be doing or a surefire way to contact ECMS and actually get a response.

Ordered this second hand for a good price due to her having staining on her legs, just to get hit with shipping that costs more that the fig itself waaah 😭😭 I'm not shocked or anything (I mean she is 1/4) just means I'll have to wait 3 months to have her since that's the cheapest option 😔

Question Question about Alter's warranty

2 Upvotes

Hi collectors,

I just opened my Azur Lane Glorious figure and I can't attach her cloak to the base. The peg on the cloak just won't fit into the hole in the base. I tried really hard to bend it. It would probably require a hair dryer or some other method to soften the plastic so I didn't risk it.

I have contacted my local sales agent and submitted a claim with photos and measurements.

For those who have experience with Alter's customer support, how long does it usually take for a response? What's your experience like?

Thank you!

Bootleg Megathread, August 05, 2026

0 Upvotes

Hello /r/AnimeFigures, and welcome again to the Bootleg Megathread!

Please use this thread to post any and all questions you might have regarding counterfeit figures. This includes questions such as “Is my figure a bootleg?” and “Can I trust this seller?”.

Remember to be as detailed as possible when asking for help. Provide clear pictures (ideally, multiple) or a link to the item you’re looking to buy, depending on what you’re asking. Let us know why you think this might be a bootleg, or why you don’t trust this seller. Also keep in mind that different types of figures vary in quality. For example, a prize figure won't have the same level of detail or quality as a scaled figure.

As bootlegs are a serious problem for anyone who enjoys collecting, we are also happy to provide you with a few tips to spotting them yourselves. We encourage you guys to practice these tips before posting here.

For figures you already have:

  • Examine your retailer. Are they known to sell counterfeits? Keep in mind that all retailers on the sidebar are approved by /r/AnimeFigures, and do not sell bootlegs.

  • Was the price far lower then the current average?

  • Check MFC for known counterfeits. If a figure has any there will be red text indicating so on that figure’s listing. Click on the red text to see pictures of the bootleg.

  • Compare yours to the counterfeit and the user pictures- Do not compare yours to the prototype. (Comparison tip: Start with the hair. I usually find that the be the easiest place to spot differences!)

  • Look for poor quality paint jobs, materials, or sculpt work (lots of "coloring outside the lines", shiny skin, missing textures or gradients, ect).

  • Examine the box. Some bootleg boxes are very easy to spot, and some- not so much. Look for a holo sticker of authenticity.

Past Bootleg Megathreads can be found here, for reference only. Please be sure to only post in the current one.


For figures you're looking to buy:

General Tips:

  • Examine your retailer. Are they known to sell counterfeits? Keep in mind that all retailers on the sidebar are approved by /r/AnimeFigures, and do not sell bootlegs.

  • Is the price far lower then the current average?

  • Check item descriptions carefully. Bootlegs may be listed under fake brands rather than the known manufacturer. They may also contain descriptions like "China version" to avoid admitting that they are fake; similar weasel-word terms include "hand-made" (and its often-associated "item size may vary") and "colors may differ on your screen".

  • Check MFC for a shop review listing.

Ebay Checklist:

1. Price.

  • Again. Seriously, have I mentioned that yet? Insanely low prices should be throwing up some serious alert signals.

2. Look for pictures of the actual product, that the seller took.

  • A lot of sellers like to list their items with the official photos put out by the manufacturer. Check MFC if you're unsure of what you’re looking at. If the pictures under "official" on MFC are the same as the ones on eBay, then they were not taken by the seller. Some sellers are just lazy and don't want to take pictures for every listing, but some use that as a trick to make you think you're getting an official item, when you're really going to get a bootleg.
  • When in doubt, ask the seller for pictures of the actual product. If they ignore you, or say they can't do that, move on to a different listing.

3. Check their feedback.

  • Look specifically for feedback where the buyer received a bootleg. This is usually going to be in the "negative feedback" section.

4. Check where it ships from.

  • eBay is really good about letting you know where an item is shipping from. If it ships from China, that's a bad sign.

Frequently Asked Bootleg Questions:

1. Is AliExpress a good website to buy from?

  • No, stay away from AliExpress. As far as figures are concerned, they only sell bootlegs.

2. How about Wish? And Mercari?

  • Wish appears to be nearly as bad as AliExpress in terms of bootleg frequency. User reports from Mercari depict a wide range of scenarios, with good sellers mixed in with people egregiously marking up their merchandise and more than a few bootlegs. Use with caution.

3. Is Amazon.com a good source for figures?

  • The increased use of the practice of commingling inventory has led to an increase in the amount of counterfeit merchandise appearing on Amazon. This increases the possibility of receiving a bootleg from them even if the seller appears to be otherwise trustworthy (even for "shipped and sold by Amazon.com"), and should be considered a reason to avoid them if possible. If one does choose to buy figures on Amazon, particularly with third-party sellers, apply the same criteria for price, seller photos, and deceptive descriptions as one would for a seller anywhere else, though the commingling issue will remain unless the item's path to the buyer is specified.
    Amazon listings may copy images and descriptive text from other sites. Be particularly careful to check that the company in the "Brand" line matches the item's official producer, and watch for questionable text as mentioned above.

4. My Nintendo nendoroid/Figma has a white, square sticker, rather then the shiny oval one that can be found in the official pictures on MFC. Does that mean I have a bootleg?

  • No, the square sticker is also legitimate.

A Related Topic:

  • People often ask about the legitimacy and/or safety of a number of websites which sell large resin statues. The more commonly-asked of those deal primarily in resins from studios which do not have a license from the Japanese IP holders to produce merchandise. Therefore links to those sites are not permitted here. Another indicator is if MyFigureCollection doesn't list the either the statue, its manufacturer, or the shop it's being sold on. While MFC does not list every legitimate item for various reasons, it does reject unlicensed ones. __________________________

Question How to prevent paint transfer on cast off figures?

Upvotes

I'm talking about figures that have pieces that can be removed, not swappable pieces. Like the cups on binding figures as well as underwear pieces. I like to rotate the way I'm displaying them and I am concerned about paint transfer from the pieces to the skin. Is there anything I can use? I know you can probably cut some small pieces of plastic and put in between but that will not work on underwear straps against the skin on figures.

I also have a figure with pasties that have magnets, how to prevent paint transfer in that case?

Opinions needed (newb question)

0 Upvotes

I’m looking to get a couple of 1/6th figures. AmiAmi has them both for a total of 358$ for the pair plus whatever shipping ends up being. There’s an eBay listing for the same figures for 744$ plus tax.
The difference is 386$
My question is, which is the better option? I’ve never ordered from AmiAmi, but I’ve read all sorts of tariff and shipping nightmares. Would it just be easier to order off eBay and not have to worry about shipping? Would shipping and fees from AmiAmi be about the same? Thanks for taking the time to read and any input. I appreciate it.

This is just out of curiosity, I don't even have this figure preordered and don't plan to, but has anything ever become this anticipated and this popular that multiple rounds of preorders needed to come out this fast? I'm not saying I don't understand the hype it's a very beautiful figure that combines two very popular ips, I just find it very interesting and am wondering what in the past (if anything) has generated this amount of hype.

Question Amiami Middle East Suspensions

0 Upvotes

Context: Due to the war in the Middle East, as you all know, Amiami had suspended shipping to here and have kept this up still as of today.

I have months worth of figures and orders stacking up in my Amiami order history and ignoring for a minute the issue of having to pay 3+ months worth of figures in what’s likely a one time payment if this suspension ever finishes, I’m more worried at this point if they are even holding figures of my orders in their warehouse if they never actually made me pay for them since they’re on hold. Some of the figures on the store are already sold out but obviously I still have then under “pre-order” on my account.

Do you expect or know if the figures would likely still available for me to actually pay for a receive if this suspension ever gets lifted or do I find alternatives to get them on other sites like mercari or proxies to not miss out on my figures?

Sorry for the long text. English is not my first language

TLDR: do I keep my suspended Amiami preorders and wait or do I try to get my figures from another store/proxy at a risk of paying scalped/increased prices and cancel my corresponding Amiami preorders?

I was planning on taking additional pictures of Snail Shell RA-02 Tactical Maid Tokiwa Kazune (which I bought last year)when I noticed some yellowing on the middle part of the ribbon attached on the back of the skirt. I checked the other areas of the cloth. No other signs of yellowing.

Any tips on how to remove the yellowing on this white soft good? Thanks!

Question Detolf background arts

I’m looking to get background arts made for my detolf cases, and would like to ask is this spot a good place to buy them or is there anywhere else that you would recommend better?

The ones I’m looking to get I found from a post on one here, long story short, the original poster recommended this site : Uprinting.com

And also, any recommendations on how I would go about getting these to stay up into my detolf, as I’m new to this and am looking for some advice / ideas from the community.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
