Aug

Today I’m going to review my first Love Live! figure, I’ve ordered one of ALTER‘s sparkling
Love Live! School Idol Festival figures of my favorite Love Live! character Nico.

I wasn’t really interested in getting Idol related figures until I noticed the Love Live! School Idol Festival version of Kotori, I was amazed by the level of details and her beautiful appearance.

For me Love Live! was a really nice anime, a bunch cute girls become friends and achieve something great was nice to watch. Also all the different types of characters with their unique charm and quirks added a lot to the shows appeal.

A few weeks have passed since my last figure review, I just wasn’t in the zone, but today we will take a look at the Sorceress from Dragon’s Crown, one Wonderful Hobby Selection figure made by Good Smile Company.  The figures origin is the fantasy Rpg Dragon’s Crown by ATLUS. I did not have the chance to play it, but I bought the top expensive merchandise.

The pretty figure was released on the 6th of June 2016, Sorceress is scaled 1/7 with base she measures 24 cm and was sculpted by Deira. She was sold as GSC Shop exclusive under the Wonderful Hobby Selection label, it is an expensive thing, I feel like I spent a small fortune. I decided to get her nevertheless, I liked her presentation and playful, flirty look.

Hi dear figure collectors, a few days ago the Wonderfestival 2016 [Summer]  happened.

The Wonderfestival is a main event for figure manufacturers to showcase their upcoming and planned figures. Illustrations, early prototypes and colored samples are on display.

I’ve never been there in person, but it’s always a highlight for me. Especially this time it was one of the more awesome kind of Wonfes, I never listed so many figures I liked before.

In this post I will feature everything that caught my interest, normal and ecchi figures.

Please understand that I can’t write my impressions on every of these ~80 figures.

New Preorders 32, yes another one

27
Jun

p32

I normally write these posts, that focus on the recently available figures on the market like every 3 months. After part 31 in early June, the figure manufacturers decide to launch an impressive number of quite desireable preorder items near the end of this month.

Ordered Items

Shortly before my remaining preorder number was close to drop below 4 I could not resist anymore. For starters I placed my order for the new Sora and ALTER’s Nozomi.

Yosuga no Sora – Kasugano Sora – Bunny Style

I preordered this one, because she looks amazing, I already was sure that bunny style Sora would look nice with some paint on her as her notice her during the previous Wonderfestival, but ordering the figure wasn’t really planned. Her face is beautiful and the seductive direction is a nice extra, too. I also like the overall presentation, the attracive and nicely dressed figure sitting on this high stool while her extra long twintails are hanging down. I’m not really interested in these kinds o bunny costumes, but Sora looks so nice in one. Good that it is a December release, so it might become a christmas present I might not need to pay by myself.

Eriri Sawamura Spencer by GSC

Eriri Sawamura Spencer - GSC - header

Review Time! Today I will show you a wonderfully made and expressive figure of Eriri Sawamura Spencer  manufactured by Good Smile Company.

During my regular review text brainstorming I noticed that was unable to remember how the figures anime “Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata” was called or what happened in it, at first.

Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata is one of the “High School students create a Dating Game” animes, like Shoujo-tachi wa Kouya wo Mezasu or the more spicy Eroge! H mo Game mo Kaihatsu Zanmai. Where a bunch of talented and charming heroines support the main character.

It was entertaining to, although to put it bluntly , the best thing about the anime was the beautiful characterdesign by Misaki, Kurehito, epecially the elaborate eyes were an important factor. While watching the anime my ranking of the female cast was like #1 Utaha #2 Megumi and Eriri as #3, but when she received such a fine figure adaption I sympathetically chose her.

Good Smile Company’s figure of Eriri Sawamura Spencer is scaled 1/7 and was released in mid May 2016. She was designed by two sculptors, SOUYOKUSHA and ehenmushi.
