The anime made me quite interested in the story, since anime ended not too grim in Total Eclipse I was ok with it.
Thank you for the info that the VN of this title has more content, it would be interesting to play, but as you said, it’s not much sense when it’s only available in Japanese. The paintjob certainly looks slightly gloomy but it’s all right. Haha I thought they were thick in the areas where it matters in the anime as well. But VN might put more focus on that.

Well, Muv luv is a really interesting franchise, the story of Total Eclipse continues in the visual novels and it turns in a really brutal and sad way as Muv luv always does. As anime I prefer Muv luv schwarzesmarken which at least animate an entire story arch, while, Alternative Total Eclipse is a precuel and a introduction to its respective visual novel. In my personal opinión YUI is one of the most interesting, sexy, apealling and well designed female characters of the entire Muv luv franchise if not the most and she is my all time favorite Waifu, sadly her story has a sad end (I don\’t know if the visual novel has alternative endings, I haven\’t played it because it is really hard to find in the west and there isn\’t a translate version, at least to a lenguage that I know).

I buy the figure recently and I am not totally satisfied with the colors, I have the figma figure of YUI too and it is really well painted and has brighter color even when the speciality of the figma figures is not the painting, but the details are really nice my only complain about it, is that I prefer the anime versión of YUI which is more slim, tall and elegant, while in the visual novel she looks a little more thick and short, and this figure resembles more the VN version than the anime versión, while the figma figure resembles more the anime versión, but it is Just me being too picky.

In reply to Bakayaro.

Ja, stimmt schon, aber fiel mir echt schwer nach der Urlaubsphase wieder einzusteigen.
Achso, naja unterhaltsam war es auf jeden Fall und gute Robo Action, mehr Geballere wäre prima gewesen.
Das Design der Anzüge ist scharf wie ich finde, die Kurven der Mäddels sind sehr gut betont darin ^^
Ah verstehe, ja alle 3 sind eigentlich toll, evtl folgt noch die Chinesin mit Twintails.

Danke sehr für das Feedback

Ein wenig spät aber besser als nie. =D
Ich habe ja ehrlich gesagt noch nie einen Blick in diese Serie geworfen trotzdem gefallen mir die Figuren von Kotobukiya sehr gut. Diese Kurven in den hautengen scheinenden Anzügen sind einfach… hnnng! Da guckt man gerne zweimal hin. Aber irgendwie habe ich mir trotzdem noch keine Figur gekauft weil mir einfach der Bezug dazu fehlt. =/ Habe sie ja sogar im Kotobukiya Craftmanship in Tokyo selber betrachten können und sie sehen einfach toll aus. :3

Deine Fotos gefallen mir übrigens wie eigentlich immer sehr gut. Die Farben des Anzugs sind auch einfach schön und der Kontrast von dieser glänzenden sauberen Kleidung zu den “dreckigen” Hintergründen gefällt mir sehr gut. =)

In reply to Adam. Yes, well bikini figures are nice, but these pilot suit figures portray the action aspect of the origin in a better way. Ahaha I see, I don't think Yui is far behind Cryska, but I like the brighter colors and the curvier curves ore.

I’m glad _somebody_ decided to make a proper set of Muv-Luv figures. Bikini figures are a dime a dozen, but these power suit designs are the thing that immediately springs to mind when I think of this series.

Going in, I thought I would like Cryska better than Yui, but after seeing both in person, I find I actually prefer Yui after all. I’m not really sure why. Maybe it’s the colors or the pose. Cryska’s not bad, mind you, but if I could keep only one of the two, it’d be Yui.

In reply to Tier.

Don’t get me wrong, I really think that Yui is a well made figure.
As always when Im not too satisfied with a photoshoot I don’t feel like keeping her.
Black Rock Shooter yeah I think it was bad and only looked cool, btw I also sold this figure after the shoot, these were really bad pics XD.

Ah I see, standing figures are also something I prefer, sitting is also nice, lying down is a bit less preferred.
Cryska’s colors are something very appealing about her.

Haha, poor Yui … I guess she flunked her photo audition so out she goes. I have had some figures which I liked more after taking their picture; I guess I can’t really say I have any figures that I liked less, even the ones I really struggled to photograph. (However, there are some figures that I liked less after seeing everyone else’s pictures. Like Black Rock Shooter. Anyone remember Black Rock Shooter? Yeah, me neither.)

To be honest, if you asked me which figure I liked better between Cryska and Yui, I think I’d say Yui, just because she’s standing up. I’m not sure why I have such a preference for figures that are standing; I guess it’s kinda like scale size with me, I really have strong preferences about both of those things.

In reply to Hoshiko. Yes it's quite nice to have a more elaborate base, hehe I see Im more the opposite ;D. Thanky you. This chin guard is quite distracting I would also prefer to have more face.
