Blassreiter: Amanda Werner PVC Figure (Creators' Labo #23) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Wow! I may actually have to start watching Blassreiter (sp?) thanks to Amanda Werner. Slightly on the expensive side, but I don't buy very often. She's worth it dudes-she's the first Yamato figure I've invested in and definitely won't be the last! Like some of the reviews I've done, if you like busty anime women with sexy curves straight out of J. Scott Campbell's "Danger Girl," well don't hesitate here fellas. She's a combination of futuristic bounty hunter/cop in a dominatrix uniform. Ye-ow.

From its Creators' Labo, Yamato unveils its latest master creation... Amanda Werner from Blassreiter. Based on an illustration by Ni? (original character and mechanical designs) and sculpted by Toy Fujiura (TOY'S BRAND), this playful piece features the pistol packing Amanda in her XAT uniform... what little there is of it; but who are we to complain. Standing approximately 11.00", Amanda comes complete with guns, killer curves, and a display base all packaged in a Japanese style window box. Limited to just 204 pieces in the US.

Excel Saga: Nishiki Ropponmatsu 1/8 PVC Figure Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased both this, and the special color edition. Ropponmatsu barely appears in the Excel Saga anime, but she's such a charmingly annoying character, and so cute, I had to have them.
The figure is very highly detailed, from the puckered around the knee stockings, to the eyes, (though the color of the eyes isn't quite right). The hair color on this particular version is supposed to be pink, and it is...at the very tips, but it's mostly white, so the color isn't quite accurate.
She doesn't quite 'hold' to her base well, so some care must be taking when displaying or she'll fall off. Same goes for the removable booster pack. If you have a cat as I do, be prepared to see it fall once in a while. Fortunately, the figure is well constructed and durable, with one small caveat.
The little cable that comes off the back of her 'cat ear' is poorly mounted. Both of mine came off their repective figures on the very first day I got them. I'd recommend having a tube of crazy glue handy to put them back on, as unless you put them in a closed display box, there's a big chance you'll also have yours break off. If I didn't know better, they weren't attached with anything more than 1mm of weak plastic, they cannot take any impact at all.
That said, since crazy glue fixed them stronger than the original, I'm not going to deduct much for this one weakness.
Overall, especially considering the price, this figure is a gem for anyone who thought Ropponmatsu Version 2 was a sweet character. And not a bad deal for anyone who just likes cute characters, this one's cute, and there's no denying that!

Inspired by the hilariously over-the-top manga/anime Excel Saga, Yamato proudly presents Nishiki Roppanmatsu as part of its Story! Image! Figure! EX collection! This 1/8 scale PVC statue based on the sculpt by Japan's renowned 'garage kit' artist Toji Tanaka, charmingly captures the spunk and perky personality of young, cat-girl robot, Ropponmatsu. Packaged in a collector's-style window box, this pudgy little cherub comes complete with detachable booster pack and clear blue display base... and with Menchi in tow, there is sure to be a disaster close behind! A wonderful addition to the collections of Excel Saga fans and those who appreciate the amazing works of Japan's finest sculptors!

Lucky Star Miyuki Takara Nendoroid Normal Ver. Figure Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am very pleased with the Miyuki Takara Nendoroid I have bought. She comes with a chair, schoolbag, extra hands, extra arms, and an extra pair of legs that allow her so sit in the chair. Miyuki also comes with three different faces allowing a range of emotions to be expressed by the figure. The only down side to her is that it can be tough to make her stand perfectly straight on the stand but other than that she's perfect. I highly recommend her to any collector of Nendoroids or any Lucky Star fan.

Miyuki is a young lady from a wealthy family who is beautiful, smart, and well-mannered. She always uses extremely polite Japanese, even when talking with her closest friends. She was the class president for her grade level in her first year, at the same time that she became good friends with Kagami. Now Miyuki is in the same class as Konata and Tsukasa, and is nicknamed "Yuki-chan" by Tsukasa. Miyuki's classmates often rely on her for help with their studies, and she is often shown giving impromptu but highly-detailed, encyclopedic definitions or explanations on diverse and obscure matters.

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya: Yuki Nagato Disappearance Ver. Nendoroid Action Figure Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Pretty much what I expected. Standard Nendoroid figure. This one is cutter than the rest though. Simple home-girl look. Nothing flashy or in your face. you can switch her body and heads easily enough. The coat body's arms are permanently bent upwards at the elbows. Wish you could replace coat arms. School uniform has completely replaceable arms for a larger variety of poses. Yuki is super cute.

Do you remember? That time at the library? From the hit animated film "The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya" comes a Nendoroid of Yuki Nagato. She includes three expressions, which is quite the repertoire for Nagato! She also comes two different upper body parts - one wearing her coat, and the other her cardigan and she also comes with her glasses, which can be removed and held in her hand - with all this you can recreate a multitude of scenes that appeared in the film! It's the perfect Nendoroid to recreate all your favorite Nagato scenes!
