<p>Is it itchy anywhere&#8230;?</p>
<p>Hi people today I will show you the review of the <strong>Super Sonico Bath Time version</strong> figure.</p>
<p>The figure is scaled 1/6, together with the bath tub she has a height of 25 cm, this Sonico was manufactured by <strong>Native</strong> and released in June 2012. She was sold as exclusive item, so I had to order with my proxy buyer of choice <strong><a href="http://www.tokyo-hunter.com/category/figures" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tokyohunter</a></strong>, who turned out as very reliable again.</p>
<p><strong>I love bathing and I love Sonico, so there was no way I could pass on this darling.</strong></p>
<p>This one is my first figure from Native, their slogan is &#8220;nude and creative&#8221; and they don&#8217;t lie.</p>
<p><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-001.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16116" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 001" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-001.jpg" height="600" width="428" /></a></p>
<p>The figure arrived in creatively styled box, included in the package is Sonico ^^, a quarter bath tub, three little bathing friends, a semi transparent and a white rubber towel, a foam part, parts to keep the figure in position. and a postcard with the illustration the figure is based on.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-014.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16128" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 014" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-014.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-030.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16143" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 030" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-030.jpg" height="784" width="471" /></a></p>
<h2>Face &amp; Hair</h2>
<p>As I&#8217;ve said a few times I prefer Sonico with a happy face expression, here Sonico shows a shy and surprised expression. Even though it is no happy face expression, it is very well done. It is one of the best faces on a Sonico figure so far. Overall it&#8217;s on par with the face of Sonico bondage &#8211; <strong><a href="http://wieselhead.de/2012/02/24/super-soniko-bondage-candy-pink-ver-by-orchid-seed/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Candy Pink</a></strong> version with more blush it would be even better. <strong><a href="http://myfigurecollection.net/search.php?artist_strict=1&amp;artist_id=8241" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Zenko </a></strong>gave her big expressive eyes and a beautiful open mouth with a detailed depth to it, also a glossy lower lip was added.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-002.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16117" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 002" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-002.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-010.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16124" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 010" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-010.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-022.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16135" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 022" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-022.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-016.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16130" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 016" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-016.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<p>Unfortunately she doesn&#8217;t show the same amount of blush at her cheeks like on the illustration, as figure she only has faint blush marks, it depends on the light how good you can notice them.</p>
<p>The hair is also very well done with the many single strands of her hair hanging down, the wet look is done in an convincing manner. There is the typical light pink to dark pink gradiant paintjob. Sonico doesn&#8217;t take off her headphones, even when she&#8217;s cleaning herself, strange isn&#8217;t it?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-015.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16129" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 015" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-015.jpg" height="366" width="549" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-005.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16120" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 005" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-005.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-006.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16121" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 006" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-006.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<h2>Body &amp; Pose</h2>
<p>Native&#8217;s Sonico is one of the bigger 1/6 figures out there, not as big as <strong><a href="http://wieselhead.de/2012/03/25/astraea-sora-no-otoshimono-by-plum/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Astraea</a></strong> from Plum, but she is big piece of PVC, in that size the body and the pretty face have a very nice appearance.</p>
<p>Sonico has a bright skintone, under certain light conditions it differs between slightly pink and a bright sand like color, areas with stronger shading were applied over her boobs, her hips, the lower belly and the part where her leg bends. Overall a natural looking skin tone was created.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-021.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16134" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 021" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-021.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-020.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16133" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 020" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-020.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<p>In this figure adaption Sonico appears less chubby than the<a href="http://wieselhead.de/2011/05/26/super-sonico-bondage-version/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> <strong>Bondage version</strong></a> for example, she&#8217;s nearly petite when you look at her slender arms and the nice collarbones, the only more meaty parts are her F-cup boobs and the thighs. I like her proportions and she looks very attractive.</p>
<p>Sonico covers herself with a towel which is made of soft rubber like material, the semi transparent towel resembles a wet look and the white one has a dry look. Of course it wouldn&#8217;t be a Native figure without some nudity, the towel comes off after you&#8217;ve separated her left arm.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-027.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16140" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 027" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-027.jpg" height="365" width="549" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-026.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16139" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 026" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-026.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<p>Now her <strong>Big Bangs</strong> are revealed, they are nicely shaped and have pink pointy nipples.<br />
It&#8217;s nice how it seems like she supports her boobs with her left arm. Sonico also has a sculpted vagina which is hidden behind a semi transparent plastic part which resembles bathing foam, it can&#8217;t be taken off without force cause it&#8217;s glued under her leg. Maybe Nitro+ was against showing their official mascot with a bare beaver. Personally, I don&#8217;t mind keeping a little modesty, though.</p>
<p>I have heard many good things about the quality of Native figures and it seems to be true, the sculpting of Sonico&#8217;s body is detailed and smooth, seam lines or rough areas can&#8217;t be found.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-028.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16141" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 028" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-028.jpg" height="366" width="549" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Now to the base;</strong> Sonico sits on a white quarter cutted bath tub, which is her <strong>base</strong>. I&#8217;m not sure if she enters the the tub or leaves it, but anyway it was a cool idea to make a Sonico figure like that, it&#8217;s a creative combination of posing and base. The tub has one fancy designed golden foot and three black simple feet, inside the bath tub there is a dirt rim paintjob applied.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-019.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16132" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 019" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-019.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<p>Sonico is supported via a peg and a metal rod with a clamp that holds her left leg. The right leg rests on the tub. It is a stable solution and the walls of the tub hide these supporting parts.</p>
<p>One detail that dissapoints a little is the quarter cut shape. While setting up the figure and the base, I noticed that it restricts the way to display her quite a bit, cause it leaves many open sides. In my opinion it would have been better to equip Sonico with a small full bath tub instead.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-008.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16122" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 008" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-008.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-011.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16125" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 011" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-011.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-013.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-16127" title="Sonico Bath Time - Native - 013" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sonico-Bath-Time-Native-013.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></a></p>
<h2>Final Words</h2>
<p>This Sonico turned out very well, the bathing themed pose and tub base, also the exceptionally beautiful face and the sexy body are a nice combination which make this figure something special.</p>
<p>As the Sonico fan I am, Im very happy to own such a nice high quality 1/6 scaled figure of her.<br />
Aside from slightly too faint blush marks and only a quarter of a bathing tub, there is not much to complain about, it&#8217;s my second favorite figure of Sonico so far.</p>
<p>Thx for reading,  see you soon with another review.</p>

<p>Hi today I will review Sansei Muramasa, the lovely Elf maid from <strong>Max Factory. </strong>This figure of Sansei is scaled 1/7 and has a height of 250mm, her release date was on 26th of March 2012. I nearly passed on her, but <strong><a href="http://www.neathgrim.com/r/20120404_muramasa_sansei/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nightmare</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://miettechan.com/2012/04/08/sandaime-muramasa-delicious-brown-elf-maid/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Exilehero</a></strong> wrote convincing reviews of this figure. The origin of the figure is the dark themed visual novel, Full Metal Daemon Muramasa (Soukou Akki Muramasa). It has never been translanted so I couldn&#8217;t gather much info about her role in the game, but somehow I managed to find some Informations about her character</p>
<p>Sansei ended up in the household of the main character Kageaki. In this world there are warriors who wear special armors called Tsurugi, which have special powers. For what reason ever Sansei can transform into a Tsurugi in the shape of a spider, she supports Kageaki in his fight against a powerful silver Tsurugi who brings chaos to the land.was born on Faerun, another dimension, she is the daughter of an elf female and a drow(dark elf) male, as half elf she wasn&#8217;t allowed to use magic so she was stripped of her magical powers after she was born.</p>
<p><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/illust-02.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15634" title="illust 02" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/illust-02.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="583" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The first time the figure grabbed my attention was as she was shown as white prototype at the <strong>Summer Wonder Festival 2011</strong>. She appeared like a promising figure and I was curious how the brown skintone would turn out. Actually I was worried that Max Factory would mess up the skintone somehow. So I decided for myself not to order until I&#8217;ve seen at least one review of her.</p>
<p>Since I&#8217;ve seen Tiffania from Zero no Tsukaima, I love elf girls with pointy ears unfortunately there never was a good figure of Tiffania, but with Muramasa I finally found an elf girl figure that was right up my alley. I have many figures I would consider as cute, in case of <strong>Sansei </strong>I would say she&#8217;s a grown beauty, maybe it&#8217;s because of her age, she looks like a girl in her twenties. I like this physical grown up appearance. And I also like the look of maid outfits.</p>

<h1 style="text-align: left;"></h1>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 2em;">Hair &amp; Face</span></h3>
<p><strong><strong>Sansei </strong>Muramasa </strong>has beautiful long light grey hair, the pearl gloss gives it a silky shine, she has to take good care of her hair with good hair care products, apparently. Her bangs frame the face in wild and spiky manner and at the front there are two insect antenna like strands.</p>
<p>One of the strong points of this figure is the face, which is very well done and I really like the way she is looking back over her shoulder. She has beautiful deep golden and red eyes and a nicely sculpted mouth. Despite the brown skintone the blushmarks she is showing are noticeable.</p>
<p>There is a variety of different moods she is showing; depending on the angle you are looking at her, words like pouting, embarrasment, uneasyness or determined come to mind.</p>

<h1>Body &amp; Outfit</h1>
<p><strong>Sansei </strong>has the body of pretty grown up young lady, with super long legs, an attractive butt, nice hips and a fairly sized bosom matching her proportions, unlike Tamaki. This figure comes in a classic black and creme white maid outfit, it&#8217;s a rather modest outfit only the skirt is a little short. Muramasa is of course no combat maid, <strong>Max Factory</strong> adapted this figure from one of the CG artworks inside the game, maybe one of the lighthearted moments there.</p>
<p><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/illust-01.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15633" title="illust 01" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/illust-01.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="484" /></a></p>
<p>The shirt she is wearing has short sleeves with white frills at the ends, revealing half of her nice brown arms. The skirt is sculpted with a dynamic flow and the underskirt also has detailed frills. She is also wearing creme white stockings that accentuate the upper area of her thighs very well.</p>
<p>The pose from her illustration is very well captured and creates a convincing atmosphere, the position of her legs and the way she carries the tablet, show that she is concentrated and wants to do a good job as maid to receive some praise from her master afterwards or she just thinks &#8220;Master, go home! before I cut you into pieces&#8221; XD</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sandaime-Muramasa-MF-026.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-15660" title="Sandaime Muramasa - MF - 026" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Sandaime-Muramasa-MF-026.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="784" /></a></p>
<p>A cast off option was also included, which allows you to take off her skirt and display her in a breezy manner, unfortunately the apron she is wearing around the waist still covers her front <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f641.png" alt="🙁" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Anyway, a nice little detail is the fancy, adult underwear of Muramasa, the detailed front has a pretty pattern and her cameltoe is nicely accentuated, its just a minor detail, but I like that ^^</p>

<h1 style="text-align: left;">Accessories &amp; Base</h1>
<p>The base is a nice looking round brown disk with a big diameter and red felt as floor. The figure comes with some nice accessories, there is a lovely table which looks like it comes from directly from an classy cafe house. There are also some nicely scaled dishes consisting of a coffeepot, a sugar bowl and a single cup with saucer, they can be placed on the table or onto the tablet <strong>Sansei </strong>is carrying. unfortunately Max Factory put no magnets into them so they are really loose items which might get lost one day. I decided to use modelling clay to keep them in place.</p>

<h1>Final Words</h1>
<p>Im very pleased with this<strong> <strong>Sansei </strong>Muramasa</strong>, sculptor <a href="http://myfigurecollection.net/item/78614#">Shining Wizard @ Sawachika</a> and Max Factory created a very nice and pretty Maid figure. <strong>Sansei </strong>Muramasa shows a strong facial expression and her body language is convincing as well. I was worried about how the skintone would turn out, but I was worried for no reason, it looks great and has some nice shading.</p>
<p>As a fan of pretty girls, maid outfits and elfs this figure purchase was the right choice for me.<br />
The fancy base, the accessories like the table and the small dishes turn this figure into a great package.<br />
The cast off option is a nice feature to make this maid a little sexier if you like to, since the black fancy underwear and the lower body are very appealing.</p>
<p>Thanks to<strong> <a href="https://www.figuya.de/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Figuya.de</a></strong> I was able to order her last minute, in the japanese shops this figures was already sold out at that time. It would be nice to see more figures from Soukou Akki Muramasa<strong> </strong>since all the female characters there<strong> </strong>look nearly as beautiful and enchanting like Sansei.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Hello, Im still on vacation, but I&#8217;ve prepared most of this posts content before my departure.<br />
With no real new figure around, Max Factories Tamaki Kousaka which I received recently would be good review material. It&#8217;s a figure from 2010, but sometimes you&#8217;ll learn to appreciate a figure just a few years after it&#8217;s initial release, for me it happened with this certain Tamaki Kousaka.</p>
<p>As I saw Tamaki in reviews a few years ago, I liked her, but had the impression that her boobs were several cup sizes too big XD Well, the taste of a figure collector can change over the years and I now I actually have a liking to figures with a fairly sized bosom like <strong><a href="http://wieselhead.de/2011/07/12/queens-blade-menace-by-amiami-zero-nsfw/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Menace</a></strong> or <strong><a href="http://wieselhead.de/2012/02/24/super-soniko-bondage-candy-pink-ver-by-orchid-seed/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sonico</a></strong>.</p>
<p>A few weeks ago I saw pictures of her again and felt the urge to get this figure no matter what.<br />
In fact it turned out quite difficult to find this rare figure, thx to my buddy ManstraCustom @ MFC I was able to get her on Mandarake. It wasn&#8217;t cheap and the shipping procedure was kind of nerve wrecking, but the figure was more than worth all the trouble, I can tell you this in advance.</p>
<p><span id="more-14902"></span></p>
<p>This <strong>Tamaki Kousaka</strong> figure was made by <strong>Max Factory</strong> and released in May 2012. She is scaled <strong>1/6</strong> and the kneeing height of her measures around 180 mm. She comes with a round brown base with soft white floor on top. Sculptor <strong><a href="http://myfigurecollection.net/search.php?artist_strict=1&amp;artist_id=8270" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ELLIOT</a></strong> was in charge of a number of Tamaki Kousaka figure adaptions, but this certain one is a little different, but we&#8217;ll keep this for later.</p>

<p>Her origin is the popular <strong>To Heart 2</strong> dating game /anime, I don&#8217;t know why it&#8217;s that popular, so far everything I&#8217;ve seen from this anime was kind of boring, maybe the games are better ^^.</p>
<p>Tamaki is a redhead, she has nice long hair, actually Tamaki is my first figure with red hair and I really like it ^-^. The hair is very well sculpted and shows many detailed strands with a few brighter shading effects. The shape of her <strong>face</strong> is soft and round which gives her a much more kind and innocent aura than the predator look Tamaki has in the anime.</p>

<p>Her mouth slightly resmbles the one from anime cats, the gentle smile on her face is awesome.<br />
On her <strong>cheeks</strong> Tamaki also features adorable blush marks what I really appreciate, another great part of her face are detailed eyes with the glossy finish. The way this figure is looking torwards the viewer is quite enchanting, it seems like<strong> she&#8217;s in love</strong> with the person in front of her.</p>

<p>Tamaki has a overall nicely sculpted body, like her face, the <strong>shape of her body</strong> appears very soft and rounded as well. This slightly chubbiness in combination with her pure and innocent aura suits her very good. The skintone is is also very well done and looks great in natural light, it&#8217;s the right amount of pale and tanned. The subtle shading adds the final touch to her skin.</p>

With her hands she tries to cover her boobs, but what can she do with just the petite hands of hers, they are spilling over XD</p>
<p>The level of detail at her hands is remarkable, they appear somewhat realistic in shape and the finger look just great with the accentuated finger joints and painted nails.</p>
<p>She has nice shoulders, collarbones, thighs and a cute belly. The decision to equip Tamaki with something around a <strong>J-Cup</strong> was a rather brave one, I know a number of people that are no too fond of boobs that large. PersonallyI like big boobs on my figures, but this is still a bit much, well the overall figure is so lovely that I can show a little more tolerance, than I would usually do.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><strong>Final Words<br />
</strong></h2>
<p>This Tamaki figure is an really adorable piece of figure craftsmanship, her attractive body and the innocent facial expression are enchanting, she is showing a good combination of sexy and cute. There are many nice details I like about this figure, the size of her boobs could be a little smaller in my opinion, but Im glad that I purchased her and overall Im more than satisfied with this figure.</p>
<p>It seems every serious figure collector has to own at least a single Tamaki Kousaka figure and with this purchase I did my part XD Her character isn&#8217;t one of my favorite anime characters I don&#8217;t even know much about her to be honest, but I really like Max Factories adaption of her character.</p>
<p>Tamaki (&gt;◡&lt;)♡</p>
<p>This figure has been around since May 2010, so my review of her isn&#8217;t the first one of course, other reviews can be found at</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Naoe-Kanetsugu-copy.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter  wp-image-23131" alt="" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Naoe-Kanetsugu-copy.jpg" height="224" width="540" /></a></p>
<p>It&#8217;s Hammer time! The warrior of love, <strong>Naoe Kanetsugu</strong> makes her appearance.</p>
<p>Today I can present you my review of <strong>ALTER</strong>&#8216;s latest figure from the <strong>Hyakka Ryouran</strong> lineup. There already have been a few reviews of her, but it would be nice if you would also read mine.</p>
<p><strong>Naoe Kanetsugu</strong> is scaled 1/8 and has a height of 225 mm including the height of her hammer. She was sculpted by <strong><a href="http://myfigurecollection.net/search.php?artist_strict=1&amp;artist_id=8189" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Makio Munetoshi</a></strong> who mainly works for ALTER and Kotobukiya as well.</p>
<p>Naoe&#8217;s release date was on the 24th February, I&#8217;ve ordered her at a german store and therefore I had to wait a little longer. I wasn&#8217;t that convinced to order her at first, after a lot of debating for and against her purchase, I decided to get her, but at that time she was already sold out in the big and also small japanese shops. Luckily the german shop still had a few copy&#8217;s in stock.</p>
<p><span id="more-14008"></span></p>
<p><strong>Intro</strong></p>
<p>Overall the <strong>Hyakka Ryouran</strong> figure Line up was and still is a big hit for ALTER. The popularity of the figures apparently isn&#8217;t based on the anime itself. It received rather mixed opinions from the audience and I think only a few people really liked it, like me who already watched it several times. Aside from the flaws in the storytelling the comedy was always overly entertaining for me.</p>
<p><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-illustration.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none" style="border-width: 0px;" alt="naoe-kanetsugu-illustration" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-illustration.jpg" height="538" width="552" /></a></p>
<p>In the story Naoe Kanetsugu is a side character who joins the party halfway in the story. She has a goofy personality and often pretends to be good at certain things, but the outcome always showed us something different. On the other hand she&#8217;s a funny girl and caused some hilarious moments. Aside from being a cute weirdo in terms of fighting she&#8217;s not completely useless.</p>
<p>One appeal point of this figure Line up are the outfits, which are a mix of school uniform and traditional japanese clothes. In comparison with the other Samurai girls, Naoe&#8217;s outfit appears more like the uniform of a private school, aside from her weapon the knots and the sake bottle there aren&#8217;t that many traditional japanese traits. Anyway her outfit looks nice and stylish.</p>
<p><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-alter-018.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none" alt="naoe-kanetsugu-alter-018" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-alter-018.jpg" height="344" width="518" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Review part</strong></p>
<p>The black and white colored jacket is a nice piece of her outfit and together with the red tie a very modern look is created, her skirt is a simple grey and short one. What also draws attention are the stockings with the cherry blossom petals pattern and the white lines. The shading gives them a slightly transparent look and the dark color accentuates her bare thighs area very well. Smaller but not less eyecatching parts are the fighter like red gloves and the fancy design of her shoes.</p>
<p><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-alter-008.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none" alt="naoe-kanetsugu-alter-008" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-alter-008.jpg" height="344" width="518" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-alter-012.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none" alt="naoe-kanetsugu-alter-012" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-alter-012.jpg" height="345" width="518" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-alter-003.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none" alt="naoe-kanetsugu-alter-003" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-alter-003.jpg" height="344" width="518" /></a></p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know if Naoe is a hard drinker, but this sake bottle is a interesting detail and I really like the level of detail they added to the cork, it looks almost real.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none" alt="naoe-kanetsugu-details" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-details.jpg" height="409" width="490" /></p>
<p>From my impression ALTER&#8217;s figures became cuter than in the years before, be it <strong>Kaminagi Ryoko</strong>, <strong>Charlotte Dunois</strong> or the child version of <strong>Takamachi Vivio</strong>, all of them have a cute and adorable flair. Also Naoe received this cuter finishing with her big eyes which are pointed to the left, the joyful open mouth and the rosy cheeks, she&#8217;s just an enchanting pretty young girl.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none" alt="naoe-kanetsugu-alter-020" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-alter-020.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none" alt="naoe-kanetsugu-alter-004" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-alter-004.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></p>
<p>A lot of effort has been put into Naoe&#8217;s hairstyle as well, the hair has a very nice look and feel to it, all the sculpted strands are giving her hair a very three dimensional and detailed appearance.<br />
At the end of each of the twintails are some big metallic colored bells connected via a white rope.</p>
<p>The bendover pose appears quite cheerful like she wants to play her next prank on someone, despite her modest appearance from the front, her rear is quite exposed and with her tight fit white panties there is not much space for imagination left. The figure is showing her nice buttocks, her thighs and overall very pretty legs garnished by some pretty black stockings.</p>

<p>There are also come some optional parts with the figure, there are two different arts for the end of the staff. One is a simple end part while the other one has a fixed chain made of flexible PVC attached to it. To attach the hammer you have to take off the end part and push it in her hand, to make the assembly a bit easier one of the twintails can be taken off.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Me and the Hammer&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>My impression of the Hammer is not entirely positive, overall it has a fancy design, the hilt is very well crafted and has a nice texture, also the golden parts of it with the flower ornaments look pretty. Unfortunately the things in between, which resemble a temple look a bit cheap with the glossy plastic texture and show only very little shading. I somehow felt reminded of Playmobil.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none" alt="naoe-kanetsugu-alter-013" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/naoe-kanetsugu/naoe-kanetsugu-alter-013.jpg" height="784" width="522" /></p>
<p>A bigger point for criticism is the balance of the weapon, it is a bit annoying to put it in place, cause it won&#8217;t stay in place even with the clear stand ALTER included. It is such a hassle to use it. I can&#8217;t shake off the impression that it was done in a somewhat half assed way. On their blog ALTER provided a detailed <a href="http://blog.livedoor.jp/alter_info/archives/1748811.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>explanation</strong> </a>how to use it, but in my case it only worked for an hour.</p>
<p>A hole for the shaft in the base would have probably solved the balancing problem. I came up with my own solution, you have to turn the shaft of the hammer so that the purple ribbon of it sits on Naoe&#8217;s back, so far it&#8217;s still in place and puts less stress on Naoe&#8217;s arm.</p>

<p><strong>Final Words<br />
</strong><br />
<strong>Naoe Kanetsugu</strong> is my second figure of ALTER&#8217;s Hyakka Ryoran Line up. In 2010 I got this<strong><a href="http://wieselhead.de/2010/05/15/hattori-hanzo/"> Hattori Hanzo</a></strong>. Naoe is another very nice figure from that Line up from all the girls she has the most modern looking outfit with just a few traits of samurai and traditional japanese fashion elements. The school uniform in combination with the lovely stockings is very well done.</p>
<p>ALTER created a pretty Naoe figure with a very cute facial expression. They delivered another figure with next to zero flaws in terms of sculpting and painting. One letdown I can&#8217;t sugarcoat was the bad balancing of the hammer weapon but with my method it stays in place at least.</p>
<p>Other reviews of her can be found at the blogs of my valued review colleagues.</p>

				Todays review is about a certain buxom blonde princess with an affection for ecchi activities.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"> <a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Princess-Bitch.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-22691" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Princess-Bitch.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="224" /></a></p>
<p>Todays review is about a certain buxom blonde princess with an affection for ecchi activities.The review will contain nudity and some foul language, so its not safe for work (NSFW)</p>
<p>The very rude name of her is actually a wordplay about the <strong>Princess Peach</strong> from the <strong>Super Mario Bros.</strong> game franchise, the design of the figure is loosely based on this certain character.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-center aligncenter" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/princess-bitch/princess_bitch_illustration.jpg" alt="princess_bitch_illustration" width="560" height="389" /></p>
<p>Her origin is a cover illustration drawn by <strong>F.S.</strong> who also illustrated a bunch of Queens Blade characters, aside from the cover it&#8217;s a badly drawn doujin, maybe it was one of his earlier works or he can&#8217;t draw with just black and white XD Princess Bitch was sculpted by Osiris who was also in charge of other nice figures, like Orchid Seeds<strong> <a href="http://wieselhead.de/2011/02/03/review-dwarf-orchid-seed/">Dwarf</a></strong> or AmiAmi zero&#8217;s sexy godess<strong> <a href="http://wieselhead.de/2011/07/12/queens-blade-menace-by-amiami-zero-nsfw/">Menace</a></strong>.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Intro</strong></h2>
<p><strong>Princess Bitch</strong> was released on<strong> 2011/10/17</strong> and is scaled 1/7 with a height of <strong>145 mm</strong>.<br />
I was able to get her for a good discount at AmiAmi and only paid <strong>5100 Yen</strong> without shipping.</p>
<p>In case you are visiting my blog regularly, you might know that I have an affection for sexy figures, but even I have my limits. The <strong>base</strong> was the thing that prevented me from preordering the figure. I really liked the look of Princess Bitch herself, but the mushroom that was nibbling at her private parts gave me some serious doubts about purchasing this figure. As much as I love scanty dressed and sexy figures, I prefer to have them in a less pervy or raunchy context.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none aligncenter" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/princess-bitch/princess_bitch_os-003.jpg" alt="princess_bitch_os-003" width="522" height="784" /></p>
<p>In my mind I had already passed on buying the figure, but as I saw user pics of her the urge of ordering appeared again. A few days later there was this discount and I ordered Princess Bitch.</p>
<p>I can just assume that many possible buyers were put off by the mushroom that looked like a nasty dick XD The feedback from my family was also rather discouraging and not very helpful in getting used to the base at all, in the end I made a substitute base for the Princess Bitch figure.</p>

<h2>Hair &amp; Face</h2>
<p>Lets finally start with the review, the part I like the most about her is the beautiful face, the big blue eyes look fantastic since they give a cute and also playful expression to the Princess.<br />
There are also lovely blush marks on her face, another nice part is the mouth with the smooth lips painted with a lipstick like color, which adds a bit of sensuousness to her pretty face.</p>
<p>The hair is rather blonde than yellow and has many single sculpted strands which are quite spiky. The sculpting of the hair looks good and îs close to the source illustration. What is not so good about it, is the rough paintjob which is mainly noticeable at the right side of her hair.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-010.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-22670" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-010.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="784" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-020.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-22680" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-020.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="784" /></a></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-030.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-22689" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-030.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="784" /></a></p>
<h2 style="text-align: left;"><strong>Body &amp; Outfit</strong></h2>
<p><strong>F.S.</strong> always illustrates his ladys in an alluring manner, sexy, curvy and voluptuous. Osiris did a very good job in transfering the style of the illustrator into this figure, even though it is no 1:1 copy of the illustration. For example the thighs and the butt lost some weight, the neck became longer for no understandable reason and therefore the position of the index finger is also different, maybe it would be nicer if the finger was closer to her mouth like in the illustration.</p>
<p><strong>Princess Bitch</strong> has a very female body with plump thighs and round hips. The big boobs form a beautiful cleavage inside the top, but it is also castoffable. It&#8217;s made of very soft material which makes the removing process quite easy, arms and head are detachable, but it isn&#8217;t neccessary to take them off at all to undress her. The boobs are big, but instead of looking like beachballs they are nicely shaped, like all of characters illustrated by F.S. Princess Bitch has big puffy nipples.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-014.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-22674" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-014.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="784" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-006.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-22666" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-006.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="784" /></a></p>
<p>The mushroom is attached to the base via two pegs, the figure holds onto it with her wrist and elbow. It looks perverted, how the mushroom supports the pose of the figure, but it works very good in terms of stability. It also seems like she feels comfortable on the mushroom XD.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-023.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-22682" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-023.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="784" /></a></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-004.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-22664" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-004.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="784" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Orchid Seed</strong> often makes use of compact poses, which is sexy but also more difficult to achieve than a standing pose, I like what was created from the not so good cover illustration. Anyway the figure has georguos curves, The attractive girl has a lovely arched back and sticks out her plump butt in a sexy way, for a figure she has a quite big butt, I would say. Not that I would complain, it&#8217;s actually the opposite :p. The figure has slightly spread legs and her private parts area is clearly visible, the level of detail just shows a small slit in the middle of her pantsu.</p>
<p>In general I prefer simplier designed dessous, not all this heavy garterbelt stuff, just show me a combination of pantsu and stockings and Im already a happy guy XD Nevertheless the dessous outfit of the figure is nice, the parts of her outfit have different kinds of textures, her corsage top and the stockings have a nice silky shiny look, while her pink buckle pumps have a shiny texture.</p>
<p>The dessous have a multi layered appearance, on top is the garterbelt, then comes some kind of light pink pantsu and below, a G-string shines through, these are no castoffable parts.<br />
The garter clips have a metallic paint job and, are nicely detailed. Because of the kneeling pose the garters outside her thighs are tensed and recreate the look of compress skin around her well defined thighs. Another nice detail are the loosly drooping garters at the inside her thighs.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-003.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-22663" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-003.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="784" /></a></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-016.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-22676" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Princess-Bitch-Orchid-Seed-016.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="784" /></a></p>
<h2 style="text-align: left;"> <strong>Final Words</strong></h2>
<p>This was another satisfying figure purchase, <strong>Princess Bitch</strong> is a beautiful figure, with an large amount of erotic or ecchiness. I like this sexy figure a lot, the face turned out especially pretty with the cute blue eyes and the mouth which are giving the figure a very appealing expression.<br />
The sculpting is as to be expected from <strong>Osiris</strong> very well done, also the lingerie is nicely done.<br />
The only letdown is the hair with the partially rough paint on it, I guess the mix was too thick.</p>
<p><strong>Princess Bitch</strong> will probably win no popularity contest, because she isn&#8217;t everyones taste, but that isn&#8217;t neccessary, what counts is that Im happy with her. I admit, that the knibbling mushroom gives the figure a quite bold appearance, but aside from that the figure is beautiful.</p>
<p>Well, I already got more used to her base, but at the moment Im using my selfmade substitute, which works quite good, maybe I will display the figure with the mushroom someday.</p>

<p>Hi everyone, today I can show you a review about <strong>Shikinami Asuka Langley</strong> from <strong>Max Factory</strong>, this figure is scaled 1/6 and has a height of 275m. This Asuka is called Test Plug Suit version because Asuka wore it in <strong>Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance</strong>. Asuka was released in the middle of December, I&#8217;ve ordered her via SAL shipping to save some money, I was actually a bit scared about EMS shipping for a 1/6 scaled figure and so I just received her a few days ago.</p>
<p>I am a big <strong>Neon Genesis Evangelion</strong> fan, it was the the first anime I knowingly watched and Im thankful that it lead me to the enjoyable world of anime. In the first place I liked the setting and the story with the cruel angels attacking mankind, but it took me some time to get warm with the characters, I would say in the first series which aired in 1995 <strong>Misato</strong> was my favorite character, the teenage pilots seemed a bit suspect to me with their mental problems and awkwardness.</p>

<p>With the latest extraction of the franchise, the Movies;<strong> Evangelion: 1.0</strong> You Are (Not) Alone and <strong>Evangelion: 2.0</strong> You Can (Not) Advance, my impression about the characters changed a bit.</p>
<p>I started to like Shinji, Asuka and the new girl Mari. While beeing a big fan, so far I had no scale figure of any NGE character, under these hundreds of already released figures I found nothing what I really wanted to buy. Ok, I once bought the <strong><a href="http://www.e2046.com/product/13330">Asuka Apron</a></strong> version from Wave which was nice for a 1/10 figure, but it turned out not to be a figure that I wanted to keep in my collection.</p>
<p>At winter Wonfes 2011 <strong>Max Factory</strong> presented a new Asuka figure in the Test Plug Suit and I instantly fell in love with her design, the pose and the cool face expression, simply everything.</p>

<p>As I unpacked Asuka and had her on my desk for a few hours I was really impressed about this figures quaility, she looked even better than I already expected. Well done Max Factory, well done.<br />
I could declare the review as finished now, but I guess you would like to know more about her.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Hair &amp; Face</strong></h2>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Asuka</strong> has magnificent hair, the light fox brown hair has nicely detailed strands and shows some good darker orange shading, I really like the way, the strands of her hair cover parts of her face and just look at her ears ^^. The hair is sculpted and painted very well, on very close view there are some tiny paint blobs on my versions hair. The head of this figure is slightly tilted down and turned to the left. Asuka is sculpted after an illustration from <strong>Sadamoto Yoshiyuki</strong>, as you might notice its not the edgy design from the anime and movies, her face appears more soft and round.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none aligncenter" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-004.jpg" alt="shikinami_asuka_mf-004" width="522" height="784" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-007.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none aligncenter" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-007.jpg" alt="shikinami_asuka_mf-007" width="518" height="345" /></a><br />
<a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-019.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none aligncenter" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-019.jpg" alt="shikinami_asuka_mf-019" width="518" height="345" /></a></p>
<p>The face expression is a mix of cute pouting and slightly embarrassement. The clear blue eyes of her are pointed to the left which underline the interesting expression. The faint blushmarks under her eyes are another nice detail. A few other things which make her face so pretty, are the snub nose and on close view the light pink area inside the small opening of her cute mouth.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Outfit</strong></h2>
<p>In Evangelion 2.0 Asuka had to pilot a new unit, Eva 03 and got a new suit for that mission, there were mixed opinions about the suit, like being ugly, too sexy and so on, I think it is a nice design.<br />
The orange area in the middle of her plug suit fits very well to the mainly red parts of the dress.<br />
The glossyness of her entire suit looks beautiful and has a futuristic look. The transparent look of the orange area gives her a sensual look, since the shine through skin is very well recreated.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none aligncenter" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-011.jpg" alt="shikinami_asuka_mf-011" width="522" height="784" /><br />

<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none aligncenter" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-013.jpg" alt="shikinami_asuka_mf-013" width="522" height="784" /></p>
<p>On certain areas of her suit you can see cable connections and green buttons incorporated, both are interesting details, that spice up the look of her suit. The skintight fit emphasizes Asukas beautiful shaped buttocks, the upper half of her butt is covered by the light orange part.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Body</strong> <strong>&amp; Pose</strong></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong><br />
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-008.jpg" alt="shikinami_asuka_mf-008" width="522" height="784" /><br />
</strong></h2>
<p>The sculptor <a href="http://myfigurecollection.net/search.php?artist_strict=1&amp;artist_id=8201"><strong>Chieri</strong></a> who also had his hands on other figures like Chie from Native, the Tony version of Hatsune Miku and another <strong>Evangelion 2.0</strong> character, Mari from <strong>Max Factory</strong>.<br />
Chieri did a respectable job with Asuka as well, she is supposed to be 14 years, but man she already has really nice curves in this figure incartion. Aside from being sexy this figure looks gracefully in her standing on one feet pose, she has very long legs and has a tall appearance.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none aligncenter" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-006.jpg" alt="shikinami_asuka_mf-006" width="522" height="784" /><br />
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none aligncenter" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-014.jpg" alt="shikinami_asuka_mf-014" width="522" height="784" /></p>
<p>Asuka&#8217;s body features a lovely arched back, a gorgeous waistline, a nice belly and very well defined hips. From the backside you can admire the beautiful hair and the very well defined back. She appears to be too pretty to be put in a entry plug of a Eva unit to fight cruel angels ;D</p>
<p><strong>1/6</strong> seems to be the perfect scale for this figure, the body and pose of Asuka really start to shine in that size, at the moment she is placed on my desk and I can&#8217;t take my eyes off her <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2665.png" alt="♥" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2665.png" alt="♥" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2665.png" alt="♥" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2665.png" alt="♥" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-009.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none aligncenter" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-009.jpg" alt="shikinami_asuka_mf-009" width="522" height="784" /></a><br />

<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none aligncenter" src="http://wieselhead.de/wp-content/gallery/skikinami-asuka/shikinami_asuka_mf-018.jpg" alt="shikinami_asuka_mf-018" width="522" height="784" /></p>
<p>Even though Asuka&#8217;s tilted head shows a slightly embarrassed face expression, her pose radiates a feeling of a self conscious, strong minded personality. With her right hand Asuka brushes back a big strand of her hair, the left hand is just placed on the left side of her hip, very well done.<br />
Like my <a href="http://wieselhead.de/2011/06/21/tsumugi-waitress-version/"><strong>Mugi </strong></a>figure, Asuka stands a little wobbly one her left foot, when slightly vibrations occur the figure is shaking from the right to the left, but it&#8217;s not like she would keel over anytime.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Final Words</strong></h2>
<p>I really like this figure incarnation of the Asuka character, she looks just stunning and sexy.<br />
Max Factory did an awesome job with this figure, her outfit and the deatails are very well made. Also the shiny finish on her Test Plug Suit looks fantastic and the 1/6 scale increases the beauty of this Asuka figure even more. Im already in love with this figure and I say Asuka is no mere figure she&#8217;s a statue of a godess *Q* ! If you liked what you saw of her in my review<br />
you should try to get her if you are still able to find her <strong><a href="http://www.hlj.com/product/MAX04137">somewhere</a></strong> !!!</p>
