i repainted my ame

Q: why?
A: first batch, if you know anything about this figure the first like 3 batch shipments from gsc and partner shops had awful qc control. shops that got them later on was a lot better. mine was VERY bad. i lost her pchan aswell so she was basically like dirt to me but i only have 3 ame figures (including the apex scale coming out soon). i ordered a 2nd below retail - i expect the same problems but its fine

she isn't perfect at all because im a beginning customizer but im actually proud of myself c:

should i be concerned

had an item ship from japan on the 4th through EMS speed post.
on the 10th to the 11th it processed at the same sorting centre sixteen times. Usually the item would have been here in under 7 days, but obviously labour day delayed it a bit.. but my friend recieved the exact same item shipped at the same time through the same method in ottawa a week ago. i'm in niagara falls

i guess i'm just curious if i should be worried about the scan loops. it seems to have stopped now, but it hasn't moved since yesterday morning, says "in transit"

thank you lol

is there a way to fix this at this point?

my symphony miku's hair has drooped really badly.
I did try heating her up with a hair dryer.

1st photo is before, 2nd is after, 3rd is how she is meant to look. (not mine)

I was considering grabbing the box and forcing it into the shape and then using the dryer, but i was worried about the blister burning..

if anyone has any recommendations PLEASE shes so ugly now

Eden Eve

i think i'll bring her to the beach again to get some nicer photos since she suits a mid day lighting more than sunset, but i liked how these turned out regardless

[ US Only ] J-fashion wig comissions

I am a wig stylist who is most experienced with Jirai Kei and Lolita styled wigs. I also have done many cosplay wigs in the past, but I am more comfortable with these more natural styles.
I have 3 slots ( + a trial slot ) open for the month of September.

---

Cost Breakdown: Prices include material cost (you won't have to pay extra!)

Short bob - $50USD + shipping.
This includes straight bobs and

Jirai Kei style (around 24-26 inches) - $75USD + shipping.

ADD-ONS:

I can do glued in streaks for + $20. An example of this is the black wig with pink streaks shown in the middle of the photo.

Payment will be upfront. 50% before I start, and the other 50% + shipping when finished and the client is satisfied.

Paypal G&S ✅ (please note that my currency is in CAD and there may be a fee attached for the buyer. I do not require clients to pay the G&S fee, but they are required to pay whatever currency conversion fee is attached.

Depop ✅ A listing will be made for the full amount once the wig is finished if you choose Depop payments. There is a 10% fee attached to using Depop (as they take 10% on the Canadian app- which I have) shipping tends to be cheaper.

Joint shipping date: All wigs will be shipped out October 15th. Tracking numbers will be given on the 16th.

TRIAL SLOT: I am looking for someone interested in buying a very extravagant Gyaru styled wig. I am willing to take on a client for $50USD + shipping, any length below 100cm. The client is allowed to show me their reference and I will do my best to create the wig.
I cannot guarantee perfection with this wig as I am just starting out, but I have all the materials required.

---

All photos shown are examples of my own work. I have done comissions for clients in the past.
I will be in the US from Sept - January, so this is US only for now.

All wigs are SYNTHETIC. Heavy hair spray will be used on these. All wigs will be crimped and I will send care instructions.

The lifespan of these wigs with proper care is 6 months to a year.

Please feel free to comment, DM, or message me on my instagram @miretoyshop 🩷

the first heat casualty..

thankfully she did not need glued.. her twintails somehow balanced it out enough. i suppose it will happen when she was in 3 boxes and bubble wrap, sitting in a 35 degree car for a few hours lmao

i posted a fridge photo of my figures a few weeks ago, leading to questions like: "can figures melt in this heat?"

the answer is no. but they CAN warp and become bendy, and lead to this. for cheaper figures like prizes this can be a huge problem for very thin and already soft spots, like the neck. if you recieve a prize in the mail heated up that requires some assembly that can risk bending the head (like equipping miku's twintails) i recommend maybe 5 minutes in the freezer. it should help bring it back to normal.

it can be very dangerous for scale figures that are prone to leaning or have small acessories that could easily bend. if you are worried about heat, just check up on your figures with 1 leg syndrome and wobbly attatchment to their bases. also check up on ones with small props like syringes, detachable headphones, glasses, etc.
anything else should be fine.

i love lizlisa

city flooded, sewage was backed up and dripped from the roof, i'm broke, maintenance is a no show, AC caused a swap of flooding on my carpet and there is no replacement, awake for 24+ hours at a time multiple days in the week, responsible for multiple people's lives right now but at least i own a lot of lizlisa that makes good wall decor

[ON] Do I need to mail all pages of an adult name change apllication?

I filled out the application online and had it printed.

I realized after putting it all together, it is missing pages 7 to 10.

Those are the consent forms, which do not apply to me. They weren't included in the full PDF.

Should I still print these out to mail?

Thank you

Second question: do I need to mail my checklist?

I just automatically assumed I do and did so, do I do have it lol

jirai kei style wig commissions

i have a lot of people asking recently, so i am currently taking jirai kei style wig commissions

attatched are photos of some references of wigs i have worked on. these are mostly cosplay wigs, but i also have a lot of jirai kei wigs i've done.
unfortunately i don't have as many photos anymore because i have a new phone so i'm working on building my portfolio back up. i am currently only open for jirai kei styled wigs at the moment

i can do:

- curls
- flat bangs
- split bangs
- straight hime cut
- twintails (detatchable or attatched)
- ponytail (detatchable or attatched)
- shapes in the hair (hearts, cat ear shapes - i cannot do this with braids though)
- ahoges, or bang curls
- natural, or a more cartoon style

price ranges from $40-75USD + materials cost and shipping.

i'm located in canada. i do ship WW, and i offer a few shipping methods.

your wig can be shipped in a parcel with a covering hair net and packing paper (cheap with higher risk), or in a box attatched to a wig head (more expensive, but extremely safe.)

customers in the US are to pay DDP - and shiping tends to be extremely expensive.

please feel free to DM me or email toymire@gmail.com with references and quotes :)

fridge time for the girls

currently rotating some of my girls into the mini fridge atm. it feels like 44° outside and my room is a few degrees hotter. i noticed they were a bit bendy.

15min in the fridge and they're back to normal now.. definitely distressing for figures that seem prone to leaning naturally
