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.

Eriri comes with a round base with soft white plushy material on top, the figure is escorted by many parts. There is a folded slipover, shoes, a cardboard box made of real cardboard, a green training jacket and pretty glasses. The jacket aside these parts are just for decoration and not to attach to the figure. While she can’t wear the glasses on her nose, it can be placed on top of her head. You could also try it on other figures, to create a smart and attractive look.

Eriri is a talent doujinshi artist, who took the task of game illustrator in her friends project.

She is the childhood friend of protagonist Tomoyo Aki. Eriri comes from a rich house, she has an  air of elegance around her, though when in work mode, Eriri can neglect her outer appearance quite a bit, that green training suit is not to my liking :p

A part I found quite amusing in the anime was that her parents are very supportive towards her professian as doujinshi artist since her works aren’t always save for work it surprised me positively. Eriri is a typical tsundere, who often stand in her own way. She shows feelings torwards Aki, but gets mad easily sometimes she even uses her twintails to whip him.

Starting from the head , we see her pretty hairstyle and elaborately crafted hair, Eriri has sand blonde hair with cute thick bangs and two sidehair strands. She has very long twintails decorated with thin black ribbons. Eriri greets the viewer with an honestly adorable gaze, the expressive blue eyes adapted from the design by illustrator Misaki, Kurehito are really something else, also her blush adds life to her expression. Eriri wears an interesting expression on her face, surprised, but still calm and collected, with a certain elegance.

When I look at her mouth it gives the ideal of a girl pouting look in a slightly cute way.

Eriri is presented in a sitting pose, where she is adjusting her stockings to get ready for the day, which is both, adorable and with a certain ladylike dignity. Her school uniform has been adapted faithfully, the details of shirt and skirt look great and are elaborately sculpted.

The half unbottened shirt with the loose ribbon reveals her pretty upper body and her cute bra that supports her modest chest. Eriri is really beautiful, she portrays the archetype of a petite High School girl. The tight shirt accentuates her petite and pretty silhouette very well. While her overall appearance is slim, the figures concept also puts attention to the nicely defined legs with wonderful, soft looking thighs. The skirt reveals a bit of her bare legs, but still covers the private areas properly. Overall there is a bit of innocuous erotic to Eriri’s figure.

The figures skirt can be removed, since the figure is articulated in the act of dressing, it’s a reasonable option. The light mint colored panties and her bra have a matching design.

Final Words

The figure of Eriri Sawamura Spencer by Good Smile Company, is a wonderful adaption of the character and also an awesome figure on her own. Her face is especially pretty, a wonderful twintail hairstyle and pouting expression give Eriri a cute tsunder vibe. The detailed outfit is extremely convincing, folds and wrinkles make her skirt and especially the shirt look so nice.

Eriri obviously is a very pretty girl, the overall sculpting accentuates her petite feminine body, the legs with the more curvy thighs are very attractive. With the lively articulation of her pose, that portrays her while putting on her stocking Eriri is a both adorable and alluring figure. Base and all the items she arrived with are nice to decorate the scene and enhance her atmosphere when she’s being on display or used for photography. She is a truly nice figure.

… see you next time! Take care

So my year as figure reviewer ended , I apparently won’t write another review in 2015. In this post I just want to look back at the figures of my reviews and choose my top 3 favorite figures.

It’s actually not that easy to choose a favorite figure of 2015, especially in this year I received and reviewed a number of nice bishoujo figures, some more sexy ladies and a few released earlier, too. For the favorite figures choice I only will count the ones released in 2015.

Congratulations I – 168

The favorites aside, I would like to list all the reviewed figures at last. Thx everyone for paying attention to this humble figure review blog, I appreciate all the feedback and comments.

Sairenji Haruna – Max Factory

(click for review)

Do good things come to those who wait? I don’t know if this holds any truth, but I waited years to see a top notch figure of Sairenji Haruna… and here she is. Max Factory created a beautiful and elaborately sculpted figure of my favorite To Love Ru character, I’m so happy.

Yui Yuigahama – Max Factory

(click for review)

Without knowing her origin before, this figure was quite delightful for my eyes. With her sweet face and the, without a doubt striking womanly appearance she turned out to be a wonderful figure. I got even happier about her, when I watched her very interesting anime.

Saber EXTRA – Fate/EXTRA – ALTER

(click for review)

I like most alternative styled Saber, I was looking forward to receive this 1/6 scaled masterpiece from ALTER since some time. As the day arrived I was so overjoyed. Saber Nero is portrayed as figure of a confident, beautiful and natural woman with a gorgeous bikini body.

  Sailor Sapphire Succubus – Orchid Seed

(click for review)

This was probably my hottest purchase this year. I fell in love with her young Succubus face and she’s just so sexy. I somehow disliked her uniform, but that could be easily solved XD Her nearly naked, nicely sculpted,  brawny and voluptuos body is top notch.

Moco – special ver. – Embrace Japan

(click for review)

I was a total fan of the Captain Earth anime. I’m often not very lucky with seeing figure adaptions based on my favorite animes. Fortunately Embrace Japan was kind enough to make very convincing figure of Moco, the enigmatic villain girl. She looks extremely cool.

Kafuu Chino – summer uniform – Ques Q

(click for review)

Haha this also happened ^^ There are purchases I do because I consider a figure incredibly attractive and there are purchases I make because it’s a figure based on a character I like. I really like Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka? and Chino. The figure is not especially dynamic, but very cute, also the uniform is pretty.

I – 168 – chuuha ver. – Max Factory

(click for review)

I’m always happy when there is a very appealing figure made of a character I adore, like it happened with I – 168 from Max Factory. Sculpt, pose, a super cute expression, vivid colors and the additional items are great.  it’s a nearly perfect figure in my opinion.

Sonico – Paisura Bikini ver. – Kaitendoh

(click for review)

I was a bit nervous about Sonico from manufacturer Kaitendoh, but she turned out really good. I like her slightly chubby, curvy body, the illusion of soft skin is marvelous. She is one of the biggest figures I’ve received 2015. Her face could have been a little better, but she is nice.

Kongiku – Oboro Muramasa – ALTER

(click for review)

Kongiku was one of the few older figures I bought in 2015, after Pinkcheeks showed a picture of this figure on her facebook page earlier this year, I asked myself if this wasn’t a figure I would actually like ;D. She’s an exceptional beautiful figure with a pretty face, nice outfit and a lovely busom ^^ Since it was an older figure and I paid a “fortune” to get her after release, I put some more effort in this set and everything.

Kancolle – Kongou chuuha ver. – Max Factory

(click for review)

My first Kancolle related figure was Kongou, definitely a very appealing figure, the face is very attractive, also stockings and skirt look very good, but my impressions were mixed nevertheless, while everything seems very elaborately done, a few things bothered me.

Comic Market – Event Staff Girl – Wing

(click for review)

My first figure from manufacturer Wing turned out very, very appealing with the face of an super sweet anime girl and a nicely developed, sexy body, she also has this so well endowed butt （´・｀ ）♡ the Event Staff Girl was a great figure for me.

Queens Gate – Alice – Alpha x Omega

(click for review)

In this year I finally managed to edit and update her old review, she was among my first figures and for her age Alice still is a wonderful figure.

Amane – Grisaia no Kajitsu – Kotobukiya

(click for review)

This year I finallly managed to finish the Visual Novel “Grisaia no Kajitsu”. Kotobukiya made this pretty big figure of Amane in a creative, dynamic pose. She is an enchanting, curvy bikini figure with a beautiful smile and very pretty hair.

Mammon – The 7 Sins – Orchid Seed

(click for review)

Orchid Seed did a remarkable great job with the mature demon lady Mammon from The 7 Deadly Sins. I appreciate the sexy concept of mom Mammon, they gave her beautiful, ladylike makeup. Obviously she’s more well endowed than your random teenage anime heroine all around, I love it, but not only that, the detailism of her outfit is stunning and nicely applied.

Asuka – Inochika ver. – ALTER

(click for review)

Another older figure where I decided later that I actually wanted it badly. I like the cute buxom Senran Kagura girls from the anime and ALTER made a marvelous adaption of Asuka, a sweet flustered face, a cuddly womanly body and a cute bikini. In general  the illusion of soft skin on her is fantastic.

Kasugano Sora – china dress ver. – ALTER

(click for review)

Sora is a wonderful china dress figure made by ALTER, she looks really nice with her complex pose , only her facial expression is more on the plain side.

!Have a Happy New Year!

Hi people, I hope your christmas holidays went smoothly and your ready for the starting 2015.

After we already looked at the financial aspect and other data of my figure collecting this year, I want to show you a post, where we take a last look at the figures I’ve reviewed in 2014.

I borrowed the idea from Bakayaro.de I like the idea looking back at the figures and remembering the things I did in this year and all the different pictures as a result of it.

The vertical pictures I liked the most are used as representer of the 19 (+1) reviews I made this year, I put them in inverted order from January to December, if you like you can look at a certain review again by following the links or just take a look at the short summary here.

Super Sonico – PKG version – Orchid Seed

With writing a little story with Sonico involved, I made a fool out of myself in the review ;D.
The big scale figure is actually really pretty, I still love her standing pose and expression, my pictures are rather medicore in the first 2014 review, I should take pictures of her once again.

Super Sonico – Sweets Time version – FuRyu

I was again a little surprised by the quality of my second Sonico prize figure, also her photogenic level was quite high. FuRyu produces a lot of different Sonico prize figures.

Maeda Keiji – ALTER

This was an excellent figure of this year, Maeda has a lovely face, beautiful and also very skimpy clothes that make her show a lot of nicely sculpted skin. Her quality is incredible even for ALTER. I’ve build a bamboo forest set for her and the pictures turned out quite rewarding.

Yagyuu – Vertex

Her promo pictures were looking so nice, unfortunately they changed her skin texture in the final product. I wasn’t that satisfied by her, still she looked good and her quality was quite ok.

Sallya – Max Factory

She was a really sexy figure that Sallya, they gave her a teasing pose and cool appearance.
I really liked her slender body and the outfit. What I didn’t like was her peg less design, it’s dangerous you know. In pictures and from close up she looks far better than on a shelf.

Araragi Tsukihi – GSC

Tsukihi is not only my favorite Bakemonogatari figure to date, but also my favorite GSC figure this year, her facial expression and body language are fantastic. I love the bob cut hair, her thoughtful deep eyes, the beautiful outfit and the elaborate base, well GSC put more effort into the red bar frame work, than in the plain white disk under. Anyway she’s just beautiful.

Alleyne – Orchid Seed

I was quite impressed by Orchid Seeds 1/6 scaled figure. The pale Elf has amazing body sculpting and looks very attractive, the leaf bikini has a nice level of detail but can also be removed, to see more of her. She also has a very pretty face with blue eyes and a little blush.

Rin Shibuya – GSC

From a few angles her face looks a little off, but she’s actually really photogenic in her lovely outfit, when you shoot her in a stage or music video like setting, she really starts to shine.

Dragon Nest – Sorceress – GSC

My anticipation for her to be released was higher than my enjoyment of the figure, I still like her a lot, since she has a beautiful face and a nicely sculpted body, the outfit is also great, personally I don’t like the shiny finish on several parts that much.

Shimamura Uzuki – GSC

I don’t know why I’ve ordered another Cinderella girl, Uzuki is really cute and I liked her skirt, but she has nothing of Rin’s elegance, she looks a bit like a weirdo with herr proportions squeezed in a little girls outfit XD Well, I actually liked her dress and closed eyes.

Cerberus – Max Factory

Aww demon girls, I love them. The dancing Cerberus was definitely one of my coolest figures 2014. Her shiny armor and other parts of her outfit look really stunning. The cute girl is really my type, with nice hips, thighs and not too long legs. Unfortunately, she had no exchangeable hands as extra parts, it would have been a great option, since she has human hands.

Sena Kashiwazaki – swimsuit version – Gift

Gift made a quite lovely figure of Sena, she’s very big and attractive, not only because of her well endowed curves. She’s also very expressive for a 1/4 scaled figure with shading, beautiful hair and a sweet, happy face. To be honest her face doesn’t look good from all angles. From the right angles, though she looks very convincing. It was really fun to take pictures of him.

Suguha Kirigaya – ALTER

I can’t remember how often this figure was delayed before her release. The quality is very good and Suguha is a good figure, but unfortunately she is not a very interesting in that pose and with a scared expression on her face. Suguha deserved something different to portray her personality and “little” sister role.

Ikaros – Kotobukiya

Ikaros is also very nice as figure with an appealing color combination and nice looking hair, the slightly sad puppy eyes and the shy pose make her quite adorable and the bare shoulders together with ample boobs cleavage have some sex appeal. The wings look so cute on her.

Super Sonico – Santa Swimsuit version – ALTER

Oh I just love ALTER’s Sonico, she might be my favorite Sonico this year. The friendly and flirty facial expression together with her lovely, soft curves. Have I mentioned that I totally adore her strong, nicely sculpted thighs, she’s already super sweet with her beach look, but the additional christmas option convinced me even more.

Super Sonico – Cheer ★ Girl – Orchid Seed

This Sonico has a striking presence with her dynamic pose, that presents her at the end of a jump, nearly floating in midair and shows a radiant smile, she looks quite big for a 1/6 scaled figure, so you can notice all her cuteness and the pretty details clearly even from a distance.

Harada Makoto – Alpha x Omega

I really like the Yamato nurse, she’s a sweet little thing, her beautiful face is framed by her attractive short hairstyle. Also the lovely retro style of her shiny pink uniform is great, cheers!

Igawa Asagi – Milestone

I played surprise as I ordered this Hentai heroine from Milestone, without knowing what to expect. Fortunately the manufacturer did a quite good job with the suit and her face. I could complain a little about her beach ball shaped titties and that her head is slightly too small.

Asuna – Titania version – Max Factory

I nearly missed to order this great figure, she’s without much exaggeration really fantastic.
The innocent white dress combined with the beautiful yet sorrowful expression make her a beautiful figure, the best part for me is her gorgeous face. Max Factory did an excellent job.

So this were the 19 reviewed figures this year, so which reviews/ figure from 2014 did you like the most from here?

In case you want to know about my personal favorite figure of 2014, it’s definitely Asuna, she passes all my criteria I expect  from a great figure.

This was the last post this year, see you in 2015…

I’m wishing you all a Happy New Year

Based on Shingeki no Bahamut, a popular smartphone and tablet Game, Max Factory manufactured Cerberus, the cute dog from hell. I love cute demon girl characters, danger mixed with some cuteness is something I really appreciate in anime media and figures.

I tried to play the Game, but after many crashes I was fed up after a few days of playing, maybe the Game was buggy or my late Xperia U couldn’t met the requirements. Nevertheless the Game has a nice concept, it is one of those card collecting things. A distinctive feature of Shingeki no Bahamut are elaborate character artworks with rich details you would not expect from a simple flash game. Especially the demon class character designs are super appealing.

Do you have a favorite character design in Shingeki no Bahamut?
There are many great designs, but I really like Lilith+, it would be great to see a figure of her.

Figure manufacturers like Kotobukiya and Amakuni already noticed the games potential and made figures of Olivia and Dark General. Olivia is the most popular figure and will be the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about figures from this Shingeki no Bahamut.

Olivia and Dark General weren’t really my type, they looked a bit too serious for my taste, so I waited for Max Factories more playful figure of Cerberus.

Cerberus was sculpted by Katagiri Youhei his first scale figure to date, she is scaled 1/7 and has a height of 23,5 cm. The figure was released in late July, back then I got her for 11,130 Yen.

She comes as nearly completely assembled figure, just put her on the base and equip the dogs with their halo parts. The halo’s are made out of clear plastic, since I was scared of breaking them, I’ve put them back in the box after I’ve taken a few shots with them.

Cerberus has hand puppet like dogs as hands, she has no optional human hands, well, there is an official artwork where she has hands, but Max Factory decided against such an option.

Review

After escaping from her box, Cerberus gives her servant owner a warm welcome with her charming looks and a cheerful dance like pose she emits a certain atmosphere. Together with the very smooth skin and the shiny armor the figure has a detailed top quality appearance.

In ancient Greek mythology Cerberus is supposed to be a big dog like creature with three heads. Fortunately this Cerberus is no ugly dog, she still has the qualities of a woman. With her hand puppets she has three heads and meets the minimal requirements for a dog from hell. Her dogs look like Spitz breed, they are a comical aspect of her, they have different personalities, the left one is a rather wild puppy while the other one looks shy and meek.

Cerberus has a twintail hairstyle colrored in redish brown and with darker shading. The twintails show a great movement. The detailed and partially singled out strands look really great. At the purple tips there is a nice transparency effect. At the top of her head she has the ears of a fox spirit, the insides have a fur like texture and are painted in a light brown color.

An unique feature of her face are the triangle shaped eyes, in general  a sign of aggression.
The Iris has a pretty non human design, they give the figure a lively and mesmerizing flair.

A cool thing is, that Cerberus mood and expression seems to change depending on the viewing angle, from the left she looks charmingly evil with a great smirk, but when turned more to the right her facial expression becomes cuter or shows a nearly kind smile.

The clothes make a real eye catcher out of Cerberus, her bustier corsage combination is really pretty. Colored in metallic purple with elaborate golden ornaments in a surprisingly detailed fashion, also the paint has been applied very clean without sloppy over painting issues.

The metallic bikini panties are sweet. Also her outfit which is supposed to be armor is actually more related to fancy lingerie, only the armor at her arms leaves a heavy impression. At her legs she is wearing some interesting stockings over her shiny, purple high heels boots.

Cerberus actually has no tail, instead there is a veil surfacing at the back of her corsage, which maybe is something close to a tail, however it has a nice, brown to orange gradient effect and gives her a more dynamic appearance in combination with her hair.

The figure has an appealing design and very attractive body sculpting, with her proportions Cerberus is really my type of girl, even when actually I’m not so specified about these things, especially not when buying figures, but when looking at her I’m really happy ^^.  She’s petite and very feminine in her appearance. Cerberus has a slim waist and sexy hips. As person she is not too tall, her legs have a very appealing length with lovely meaty thighs and a cute butt.

Well, her body sculpting is really great, be it the very well defined collarbones or her pushed up boobs. Also the smooth, slightly muscular belly should be taken into account. From the backside you can also admire her lovely shoulder blades and the previously mentioned butt.

Final Words

Yeah, time to put together my thoughts abut Max Factory’s Cerberus. I think that I am really satisfied with how the final figure turned out. I was really looking forward to the day of her release, I couldn’t get her fast enough. The figure has a charming face with great eyes and appealing expression. Her outfit is beautiful, really detailed and compliments her attractive body very well. The sculptor did a fantastic job in bringing sex appeal and playfulness together in this figure of Cerberus. The beautiful demon girl theme has been done in a convincing way.

There are a lot of positive things to say about Cerberus sama, but one thing that bothers me a bit are the Halo connectors. I’d feel more comfortable when they have been made of metal, I really wouldn’t feel confident to put her on the shelf with the halo’s attached, sooner or later these clear plastic connectors are bound to snap, especially with my luck with such things.

Max Factory proved again that they are a top tier manufacturer, their figures have an outstanding level of craftsmanship and Cerberus is another great example of this.

I hope you enjoyed her review, maybe you have also ordered her?

  Another “milestone” was achieved and so Wieselhead.de celebrates it’s third anniversary of being an a lively and passionate bishoujo figure blog. The blog started back in May 13th 2010.

In this anniversary post I want to talk about  the third year of blogging, I’ll take look back to certain posts, happenings and changings concerning my blog. Lets start with a few numbers.

In year 3 I created over a thousand  52 Post (56 in year two)

12 anime related posts (18 in year two)

26 figure review posts (23 in year two)

7 pre-order posts

7 posts related to other topics

I remember some funny things of the year, like the Stocking review, where I seemed to be the only one who liked her XD. The post where I reviewed Yukio Okumura a male figure, which was rather odd on a blog mainly known for boobs and moe. The day where I was asked out of left field by a fellow blogger to take over his figure order, it was a nice occasion since it brought me the adorable Menma from ALTER, which I probably hadn’t bought out of own impulse. I also liked my reviews of the old Saber Maid and the so much better new Saber Maid R.

Aside from figure and anime reviews I also had fun in the Anime Interrogation Game, where my very valued fellow blogger Hoshiko invited me to.  It was a quite interesting experience.

Figures

Figures are obviously quite important, since they are the topic and main attraction of this blog. In this 12 months time period I received exceptional great review material, the majority consist of new figures, but I also received older ones. It’s difficult to choose a most favorite figure or a certain review that I had most fun with, but the following ones are among my favorites.

Tamaki Kousaka

Sandaime Muramasa

Leviathan

Yoshii Hotori

Noel Vermillion

Sonico – bath time version

Hibari

Sayaka Miki

Maria Takayama

I made a little (my first) video about the figure reviews of the 3rd year, best quality at 720p. 

The music is cool, but might be not everyones taste, please deal with it. :p
be thankful that I haven’t chosen the Figumate Gunchacha Kyu song.

Anime Reviews

I always liked it, but also had a few problems with writing anime reviews in the first years, but in this year I felt more convinced in my writing and had even more fun with writing about the shows I’ve enjoyed or in case of Eureka Seven Ao felt totally frustrated in the end.

Thanks to the people

At first, thanks to every single person who visits or even comments on Wieselhead.de, Im very happy about that. Of course, special thanks to the people that go the extra mile and comment in a very regular manner like feal87, hoshiko, Kai, Bakayaro, Nopy, Adam, Aya, Fabrice, G.K. Sil Kamina, Tier senpai and Miette. Especially I want to thank, the, beautiful talented blogger and photographer, one of the masterminds of Otagamers, the busily figma friend, Dollfie owner and fellow Takamachi Nanoha fan, the inhabitant of the desert, Miette-chan. The one who always listens to my “exciting” figure adventures and whining about the downfall of blog culture.

Hmmm…

not many blogs survive or can produce regular content over such a long time, exspecially running a regular figure blog takes a lot of passion, the pictures doesn’t appear out of thin air and ideas have to come in mind. Writing the text also is always something challenging for me.

My blogsphere changed quite a bit in this recent time I have to say. Be it motivation, a new way of living or other personal reasons, it’s natural for people to change and blogs will go on hiatus or in worst case die. However it is nice to see the missed people back with a post once in a while.

I told this to no one, but actually I thought about quitting this little free time activity of mine a few times this year, but don’t worry I love to run this blog too much to stop. In the first place, Im blogging for myself since it’s an activity I enjoy. Taking pictures, writing text filled with the things I want to say and the exchange with other people from around the world, it’s great!

New Theme

Finally, Finally! After years of searching  I found a new theme for my blog, that allowed me to finally say good by to Photocrati which really wasn’t the right choice back then. The new theme is called Paula, ( like my dog ^^). It is actually more or less what I was searching for. I love it’s modern look with the sliders, sidebars and I find the overall appearance appealing. It also offers a lot of options. So far I haven’t edited all post to match the new layout, but Im working on it.

Stats

The new theme doesn’t support Jetpack’s Stats, so stats were a real mess and pain to measure.

In the end of December I tested the new theme and Jetpack ceased working, from then to February I tried several stats plugins Statpress reloaded among others, but I didn’t like the design. Now Im using StatCounter Stats which is a bit friendlier than this Google Analytics that Im running casually. If I calculate the Jetpack stats and the ones from the other measured data, my all time stats should be around 190.700 visits.

further goals

Two goals were still unreached in the last year like [ ] finding a better looking wordpress theme and [ ] Improving my html and css skills. The theme has been found, but I guess  Improving my html and css skills is hopeless, I’m too lazy to invest much time in it anyway XD That aside I should  purchase the goal to edit all old post to match the new layout.  

Thanks for your attention and stay tuned for more reviews and stuff to come…
