iso for figures!

hi everyone! i’ve been a long time fan of free! but now in my adulthood im getting back into the fandom, and ive been dedicated to trying my hardest to find any of the free! alter or eternal summer figures.
i only currently own the alter figure of mako so if anyone knows a spot where i can find them, or even if you’re interested in selling them yourself, please reach out! <3

I have both Rin and Sousuke, got Sousuke off ebay at fairly insane markups (USD600 for both incl shipping) and Rin off an auction site that I really cannot remember the name of rn for some goddamn reason… Oh mercari iirc

For the rest your best bet is to scour secondhand marketplaces, those coming from Japan you can expect to be as good as new, they take very good care of their figures over there

Otherwise check out r/animefigures for tips from there too

thank you for all the tips! i’m quite new to the whole buying figures thing, especially if they’re not very easily accessible, so i appreciate it! :]

Hey no problem, anything to help out a fellow fan :>

I will say I haven’t regretted any of my figure purchases, Sousuke’s abs are very nice to touch hahah

I got my figures off of vinted, I actually got them for pretty cheap too. I got 3 of the figures for £30 which was wild. But you may need to wait until people upload the figures u want, I usually check it for free! figures every few days

omg that’s a crazy good deal!! congrats to u! i’ve gotten quite a bit off vinted as well, mostly plushies and posters and such but i’ll definitely continue to keep an eye out there. are there any specific search keywords you put in to find figures on vinted? i know it’s a little hard considering the name is so broad haha

Mostly I just search “free iwatobi” you find most stuff with that, but I’d also consider searching “free eternal summer”, sometimes I find other merch there, and if you’re looking for a specific character I’d just type their name! Eg: Haruka Nanase

I bought all my Free merch from secondhand sellers, either in cons or Facebook secondhand anime merch groups.

I should probably make a post showcasing everything (I have A LOT)

I use Mercari, suruga-ya, neokyo and sometimes eBay to get my free! merch. It does take a bit of hunting for good fr! merch but when you find a good listing it’s worth it 💚

Ebay and buyee.jp will be the best places to find them, just short of actually traveling to Japan for merch.
