Did Ludwig spend $1K on 'Trigun' figure? Mizkif and Emriu react to YouTuber's Anime Expo visit
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Popular streamer Ludwig Ahgren aka Ludwig was seen with Hasan "HasanAbi," Emily "Emiru," and Matthew "Mizkif" on July 3 at the ongoing Anime Expo 2023. During the interaction, Ludwig told them that he had spent a thousand dollars on a 'Trigun' figurine. It was described as the most expensive item at the event by the YouTube gaming star.
Emiru was shocked by Ludwig's spending on the anime figure. Then Matthew recalled seeing excellent 'One Piece'-themed stuff at the Anime Expo, which was likewise priced at $1,000. Besides Mizkif and Emiru's reactions, Ludwig's purchase was also trolled by the streaming community.
'This is a thousand'?
At the five-hour mark of Emiru's live stream, Ludwig discussed buying an anime figurine. The Anime Expo 2023, a worldwide four-day convention, kicked off on Saturday, July 1, and will end on Tuesday, July 4, 2023. The Los Angeles Convention Centre served as the venue for the yearly event. Ludwig provided details about it, saying, "It's a thousand dollars. It was the most expensive figurine. It's from Trigun."
The One True King (OTK) co-founder then urged Emiru to look at the item. Shocked, she said, "This is a thousand?" Mizkif came in later and recalled seeing One Piece figures that were far bigger than what Ludwig had bought. He then said, "Emi, you remember those sick things we saw for $999? Dude, literally, like this big! It was $999." HasanAbi then asked where Mizkif saw the One Piece merchandise.
'Anime expos are a big joke'
The streamers' interaction was shared on the r/Livestreamfail subreddit, with several members sharing their opinions. A Reddit user wrote, "Searced the figure and its like 100-200$ not 1k." The second user wrote, "These anime expos doing scamazBingo. They greatly improve their profit margins at cons, because most people already have the mindset that they're there to spend money." A third said, "Anime expos are a big joke. I've been to way to many of them." Someone asked, "Did Ludwig ever apologize to Miz btw?"
