The other things here don't especially speak to me. I haven't started getting any K-ON stuff (I need the figmas and maybe the full sized nendos) let alone petites. I don't care for Queen's Blade nendos at all (something about slutty nendos just seems wrong, slutty and cutesy chibis just don't really mix lol). And I rarely play VNs, so don't really know any of those characters. None of the designs except maybe the Sengoku Rance one really appeal to me. I think maybe I'm pickier when it comes to petites anyways. Maybe because to me they're more like mini statues since the posability is even more limited than full-sized nendos?

And I have to agree about other nendos here - me too not a fan of Queen's blade girls or unknown game characters
Petits are cute, but there is one bad thing about them - if you like not all figures from a set, you can't order them separately, so it's the reason why I usually don't order petits >_<

Yeah, that's the other problem I have with petites too. -_-;; But if you've got money to spare you can just buy a full box and sell of the extras. Or buy the ones you want off of other people, but they usually charge too much for it. *sigh* But there's also things like the "Let's Split Boxes" Club on Tsukiboard. It's not always the most helpful for more popular characters since the slots fill up quickly, but you can always get what you can and then buy the rest second hand. The less you have the buy second hand the better lol.
My BIGGEST problem with petites is just how many of them are exclusive these days! ><;;

Also, Nendoroid Rance when!? Or a Figma. He could be Revoltech Woody's best buddy.
