I still didn’t figure out how to create appealing content in a way so that people would like it. Not posting anything at all was actually also not a good way to deal with the situation. So for me, creating this kind of content really became a little unrewarding, compared to my other hobbies aquarium and Games.

I feel sorry for the person who created this blog around twelve years ago, where is all the motivation now? I regret neglecting this blog for nearly the past two years for unnecessary reasons and personal doubts.

When I”m in hyperfocus mode I actually am able to write an review post in under 3 hours, I will try to write reviews with less text in 2025 so I will not waste my and your time with a wall of text accompanied 30+ pictures anymore.

still managed to finish up the posts for 5 figures

Daiwa Scarlet – Uma Musume – Max Factory

Suomi KP-31 – Midsummer Pixie – Heavy Damage Ver. – Girls Frontline

Shirogane Noel – Swimsuit version – Hololive – Good Smile Company

Pola – Seaside Coincidence Ver. – ALTER

Mei Mei – Creator’s Collection – DSmile – Rocket Boy

Maybe I did miss the opportunity to drop figure blogging when the time came, I didn’t want to let the good times end (2010 – 2015…), the good times ended, but I didn’t stop.

Instagram and Facebook ruined the blogsphere, it’s easier to consume media that way and also easier to create content that way. I tried to go with the times and used those platforms, but they are completely unsatisfying nowadays, the algorithm is everything and when you get shadowbanned you have just another problem up your butt.

I still have to review:

1.Anya & Yor – Spy x Family – (GSC)

2.Reisalin Stout – Atelier Ryza – (Max Factory)

3.Hua Hu – Mo Li – Mo Shang Li Qing ver – (AniMester)

4.Meido-Busou – Javelin – (Amakuni)

5.Sister Olivia – (Vibrastar)

6.Sisteor Petronile – (Vibrastar)

7.Bremerton – Scorching-Hot Training, TF Edition (Mimeyoi)

8.Mayuzumi Fuyuko – Off♡the♡Re♡cord Ver. (Alter)

9.Cocoa – Kuro Gal Maid Inma, Goshu o Kuu. (Q-six)

10.Nandemo Yurushitekureru Sister (Lovely Project)

11.Formidable – Azure Lane (Alter)

12.Reisalin Stout – Atelier Ryza ~Tokoyami no Joou to Himitsu no Kakurega~ (Phat Company)

Hopefully 2025 will give me a little push, it would be a shame to not review these and also the upcoming figures on my preorder list. Anyway, I’m wishing everyone a Happy New Year 2025!!!

Rediscovering and editing my old figure photography was honestly a lot of fun, but apparently I needed a break from it after a white, since I don’t like to do the same thing every day.

Oh, I managed to write a few review posts in 2023 as well. I did receive some of the most stunning figures of all times this year, as expensive as figure collecting is nowadays, I can’t complain about the quality or lively appearance of the items that I received. I have spent 241.462,00 Yen on (10) figures in 2023. I received 10 and managed to review 11 of them, including 5 figures from 2022 haha.

The top three figures for me were

• Asuna Ichinose – Bunny Girl

• Kouka

• Kuramoto Erika – Beach Volleyball Ver.

Although I took pictures of most of my new figures, I did not manage to review them like it was supposed to be, distractions were Nikke, Genshin Impact, a broken webspace and the creation of AI generated pictures recently.

For 2024 I will try my best to review, Pola – Seaside Coincidence Ver., Suomi – Midsummer Pixie – Heavy Damage Ver., Reisalin Stout, Daiwa Scarlet, Shirogane Noel and the recently arrived Meido-Busou:Javelin.

At least there will be no shortage of new content for the new year .

I’m wishing everyone a better 2024, see you

I started reading anime figure related blogs around 2008, blogs like Happysoda and Tentaclearmada showed me the appeal of bishoujo figures and ambitious figure photography, I slowly began with collecting my own figures.

On May 13th 2010 my blog went on air, a tiny spark lead me to opening my own blog about anime and bishoujo figures from Japan. A small village boy from Germany going out to take part in a worldwide community. In the early years I met many awesome fellow reviewers and skilled photographers and really had a great time to interact with them.

it was one of the better decisions in my life to open up the blog

My first few reviews weren’t especially great with my cute english for example, my pictures also weren’t always great, back in the day it wasn’t necessary to have perfect pictures, people could see the figures as they are and talk about it. 

Nevertheless my english improved and so did my photography skills and in these 10 years I posted 181 figure reviews.

A small selection of my reviewed figures from 2010 to 2019

Not many stayed active as figure bloggers and that honestly left me heartbroken at first, somehow I gathered enough motivation to keep going, and a few fellow bloggers became very dear friends to me.

Facebook unfortunately lead to the decline of blogs in general, Recently I also made a page on facebook, to get noticed and also to stay in touch with fellow figure collectors. I still run my blog on a regular basis, although I’m not as passionate as I used to be, but I still love figures and Wieselhead.de is my baby, that I won’t abbandon.
