One could see those as chibi rather than loli, but I see the point, and generally agree.

I really hate that the black outfit Remilia costs as much as a decent video card, I wouldn't expect that quality to come for $50, but if it were somewhere south of $200 I'd probably already have a charge on my credit card just due to the artistic merit of the item (you can count the chain links on the fiddly little decorative chains, I'll pay 3 figures for that, just not mid 3 figures.)

This reminds me indirectly, is it just expected to be a needle in a haystack finding non loli/chibi Touhou art?
