Tony Tony Chopper is one of the few male characters I collect figures of, since he matches my cute aesthetic more than any of the other Straw Hat Pirates from One Piece (more than most of the characters, really). I already had ITEM #753848, which remains one of my favs to date, but I saw ITEM #135219 on auction for cheap on Ebay a while back and had to have him.
The thing is, I didn't bother checking his what size he was, despite a ruler being put directly beside him. So, like the dummy I was, I expected a two, maybe three inch tall figure, and I made a teeny bit of space for him on my shelf. He arrived a few weeks later, and when I opened him up, I immediately realized my mistake.
Not only was he five inches tall, but his base (non-removable) was as wide as he was tall! I had to rearrange so he didn't end up overlapping my other figures. I still adore him, but I felt so silly not looking up his correct size beforehand XD
Shoutout to ITEM #1015552, as well, who I thought was going to be twice as big. She's still quite pretty in her petite size, but I did a double take opening her up.
Please let me know the times you've messed up with the size of your figures (mainly so I don't feel as dumb). Were you the one who made the mistake, or was the seller inaccurate? Did it mess up how you wanted to display your collection?

But man, sometimes their box and base though can be needlessly big. Those two are the ones that throw me off since they are generally not reflected in promotional pictures/illustrations till ready to ship.
Same thing with these two beauties ITEM #401018 and ITEM #401020, they're way bigger than I thought, and for being prize figures, they're absolutely stunning. Still a tad shorter than my bunny Miku but I cannot call these 1/8 either. I have 1/8 figures and also Miku herself, none of these are 1/8 and I honestly love them :,>❤️
