Dark Ariel7 Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 ごきげんようしょくん。I am about to graduate HS Valedictorian so I want to see if I can get a Figure out of my parents. Ace was one of the first to come to mind. I can't seem to find a decent figure of Ace though. He is my favorite one piece character so I will give him my first time. Getting a figurine. So I would love a place to buy a good figure or some advice in general about looking for a figurine. Alternatively in lieu of my class ring I would also like to get an cool anime ring. Like one of the Vongola rings in actual silver or platinum. Does anyone know a cool Anime themed ring made of valuable materials and not just steel or the like? Quote
Dark Ariel7 Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 Oh yea! I forgot to mention but I am actually really anal about detail. The articles need to look Exactly like the original or at least as close as humanly possible. Like this Sengoku figure. I mean if that figure looked anymore like the original I would suspect that they used some form of secret Japanese magic that westerners don't know about. Same applies to the ring. If it is the Vongola ring it can't look like this. Quote
Dark Ariel7 Posted February 12, 2014 Author Posted February 12, 2014 I think I found 2 decent Ace figures but I am not sold on either just yet. One has a really annoying joint on his arm and the other has a really peculiar shading. Well, here is 1 and 2. Still Zero on any leads for a ring though. Quote
Stanleys Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 I may have some things of your interest. I'll start with the figure. While it's not the original Ace outfit, it still looks very well made. I found two sources of it. I think there may be some differences but I'm not to sure. Check here and here. As for the jewelry, unfortunately I was not able to find everything you were looking for. There are some Vongola rings on ebay but they are not silver. There are some Ace rings that I found that are sterling silver. I found sizes 15 and 25. Then there is also an Ace pendent that is sterling silver. And finally there are several One Piece rings, pendents, and mini-pendents found on the three pages here. Hope these help somewhat. Quote
Dark Ariel7 Posted February 12, 2014 Author Posted February 12, 2014 Thanks, but it has to be with the original outfit. I love how he looks with that. I know about the jewelry. It is damn hard to find. I don't want theme jewelry though. I want Jewely actually used in animes. I am starting to believe that it may be impossible..... Quote
Dark Ariel7 Posted February 15, 2014 Author Posted February 15, 2014 Looks like the only way to get the ring is to have it custome made. Does anyone have any idea what the steps to getting this done are? I mean I can get pictures of the Vongola ring but who do I take it to so that they make it from white gold? Quote
Stanleys Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 You're probably going to have to do some research and find a custom jeweler in your area. Quote
Dark Ariel7 Posted February 18, 2014 Author Posted February 18, 2014 Guh! I did the research and its looking like the ring is out. The jeweler I contacted is asking for over 3k for the job not including the stone. I am going to have to go with Ace unless I find a pre-made ring or something. Quote
