This cute figure is called Mei Mei, her sculpt is based on the art of DSmile.

Mei Mei has been sculpted by Ramunesoda started working around 2021, not much of a backlog, but I think this figure we are looking at today turned out quite nice. The figure is scaled 1/6 and is measuring 270 mm.

Mei Mei is manufactured by Rocket Boy and was released in January 2024. Mei Mei is a figure with a dynamically active pose, the peace sign is quite charming and makes the concept quite happy. She is wearing a cheongsam with a rather unusual or let’s say futuristic design, with a zipper in the middle, that goes all the way down. The way her hips are exposed is very sexy. She comes with a small diameter base, so that Mei Mei doesn’t need much space to display.

Mei Mei has a beautiful face, the slightly big head and the wide face make her appearance very cute and her gentle smile is quite enchanting. The face shows very attractive facial features, her wide eyes are very detailed and the decals are applied with precision. You probably noticed her heterochromia eyes, these are an interesting feature with the combination of yellow and aquamarine. The eyebrows are thin and appear slightly furrowed.

The figure has silver colored hair in shape of a short bob cut hairstyle, the blue ribbons are a nice addition. The pearl effect silver does look great on the even surface of the cheongsam, but not on the figures hair, the paint appears slightly cloggy. I feel reminded of my scale modeling days where silver was the most annoying color to work with. The buns on the head are not the best design choice either, it’s look a bit let’s say blurry. It’s not a real letdown, but it could be easily better than that.

The figure can be displayed without clothes, but first we will focus on the figures dressed stage. The cheongsam with zipper is quite interesting, the figure doesn’t wear any kind of underwear underneath. The thighhigs have a slightly different design at each side, they are semi transparent and glossy. The sleeve on only one arm is matching the thighhigs design and the fingerless gloves are cool. The bulky looking black ankle boots are very fashionable and the level of detail is extremely nice.

The cheongsam adds a certain asian flair, I like the punk rock like influence on her outfit, even though It sounds like a wild combination, but it all comes together in this figure. Her half transparent jacket with it’s net pattern and floral ornaments is a good addition to overall outfit. The buckle under her neck holds everything together, although it doesn’t obstruct the view on her cleavage anyway.

I would not say that Mei Mei is thicc, but she has a very attractive bodyline with a narrow waistline and a cute butt. Mei Mei sporty appearance is kind of corrupted by the size of her boobs, she has big boobs, nicely shaped and soft looking, she also has pretty nipples with a nice color and texture on them. One odd thing about this figure, is that the relative big head makes her boobs appear less impressive, while the size is actually more than medium, it doesn’t look out of proportion for Mei Mei.

The figure shows a slightly accentuated stomach, overall the body is smoothly sculpted, it is not extremely detailed, but it’s enough to create a pleasant appearance. Mei Mei has nicely articulated hands and fingers with painted fingernails that are also part of the design.

Yes, there is a cast off option, cast off was a thing in early 2010 years. Nowadays, to become more cost saving the manufacturers would just throw in a body without clothes where you just swap limbs and head from the other body. The alternative body connects with the already present legs and arms. The jacket won’t come off though.

An alternative face is also part of the figure, you can use it on both display options. The alternative face presents Mei Mei with heart shaped pupils and wide open mouth. I’m not really convinced by that expression, maybe the expression doesn’t really match the atmosphere of the pose. Instead of looking especially erotic it seems more as if the girl is running away from something. It’s nevertheless remarkable that the inside of her mouth is that kind of detailed with toungue, teeth and the space inside nicely sculpted.

Overall it’s a great figure, the futuristic fetish cheongsam with the other elements of her outfit is very cool. Mei Mei is a very cute girl, the face with it’s cute features is simply enchanting. The figure has a very attractive bodyline with an interesting pose. Her naked body is a nice bonus, but actually not important for the enjoyment of the figure. Mei Mei is a high quality figure for the most part, the only small thing that is bothering me is the silver hair, which appears very artificial. I like the standard display option the most, a cute smile and the dressed body is really good enough.

Erika is one of illustrators Raita iconic Zettai Junpaku ♡ Mahou Shoujo characters, the H manga is not so interesting in my opinion, but the girls without exception are beautiful and attractive and a popular source for a relatively large number of pretty figures.

This figure is part of the Character’s Selection lineup from Native / Rocket Boy. She was released in early September 2023. The Kuramoto Erika – Beach Volleyball version was sculpted by Hocke. The figure is really big, officially it’s 1/6 scale, but she could easily pass as a 1/5 scale figure from the base to her hips she is nearly around 25 cm.

Erika playing beach volleyball is a nice idea, it’s a nice change from the usual bikini outfits, although I like bikini figures a lot as well. The outfit is both sporty and skimpy. The volleyball pose is nicely recreated, where Erika takes a short break during a match. In the bendover position the hands touch the inside of her thighs.

Kuramoto Erika – Beach Volleyball version came with many parts, there is an alternative hips part, 3! alternative torsos, a second face, a volleyball, a blue necklace and detachable sunglasses. After you separated the arms, legs and the head, you can combine the alternative parts as you desire. Fully naked, half naked with bare boobs, half naked with bare ass or Erika being molested by floating hands. The alternative face also gives the figure a number of different display options.

One of the torsos is kind of hilarious or tasteless, where the hands violently the figures boobs. It depends on the viewpoint if you like this kind of stuff, I don’t l like the idea of floating hands attacking the characters boobs, since it looks ridiculously violent and painful I didn’t bother to use it.

The figure has a great body, there are the extreme Raita proportions like we love them, A narrow waist and wide hips and as one of Erika’s trademarks the really big butt, it’s a great sculpt with a bold bodyline. The boobs of the figure are huge and beautiful, I like the shape and the pink nipples.

The outfit has a great bold pink color, the top loosely holds onto Erika’s upper body, it’s nice how one strap is sliding down her shoulder. The thong sits tightly and squeezes her butt quite a bit.

One certain detail caused a bit of disapproval from the fanbase or a better said nagging hobby peoples. I will say so much as that in a bendover pose the nipples should probably not point upwards like they do, but it’s not bothering me and I already got used to it. Surely they should point downwards in that pose.

The overall body tan is delicious and attractive on the figure, her pale big ass is great and erotic. The pale boobs skin appears to be sensitive and precious, my imagination is running wild here. The exposed buttocks are super nice and the shape of them is nicely done, vagina and butthole are present and look like they should, obviously these aren’t tanned. The purple separation lines at the arms make sense since sweat stoppers are used in beach volleyball, the separation lines at the thighs though, appear like an foreign object. I actually would prefer the bare thighs.

Next to the attractive and scandalous body, Erika is wearing such a sweet expression on her face. It’s quite enchanting with the amount of blush and the cute open mouth with the inset tongue, overall it’s a wonderful level of detail . Even fully naked Erika looks like having fun. The haircolor is a mix of brown and purple, the wildly flowing ponytail looks nice.

The alternative face shows Erika in a surprised fashion the mouth is wide open and the eyes appear slightly more opened. It’s probably making more sense when used in combination with the groping hands torso. Personally, I don’t really need it since it wasn’t the reason why I have bought this figure.

It is my second Kuramoto Erika figure, I also have the Native figure from 2018.

The Kuramoto Erika – Beach Volleyball version creates a summerly atmosphere, I love the heavy tan on her, the sporty outfit is a nice change of pace and the body is extremely sexy.

This Beach Volleyball version is a really nice figure, the happy expression and beautiful face are a great combination, maybe nearly too cute for an H figure. The dressed display option is already quite nice, but the figure can be displayed completely naked, albeit the fully naked appearance it’s not an especially lewd figure. The Raita proportions look fantastic on Erika, especially with the focus on the big butt of hers.

The character of Chie is based on the work of the popular illustrator Ishikei, her illustrations are as beautiful as they are lewd.
Since the characters are exceptionally cute a lot of her lewd works are still acceptable and aesthetic.

Chie welcomes us with open legs in this figure adaptation. It’s a rather naughty pose, but the Ishikei character design doesn’t make it appear extremely lewd. I generally really like the mature appearance of the figure with her smooth curves and great looking body sculpting overall.

Chie from Rocket Boy has been sculpted by Nyaba, an sculptor with many upcoming figures in the future.
The figure was released in late February in 2022 without any delay, I got her from Native shop for 19.800 Yen.
She is scaled 1/6 and measures 15 cm in height, considering the compact pose Chie has a great size to admire all the things that are good about her. She has a fluffy base, additionally there’s a soft pillow to hold the figure in position and a decorative plastic pillow to place the foot on.

Chie’s figure features two different facial expressions, a friendly and cute smile, the gaze feels like she interacts with someone in a playful manner. Then there is the sinful face with her slightly opened mouth it looks far more erotic and portrays Chie’s carnal desires without holding back much. She has straw blonde slightly wet looking hair with it’s detailed strands and styling Chie looks really pretty.

The figure is very attractive and has more meat where it matters, most obviously are her wonderful big boobs. They are nicely shaped and appear invitingly soft, the sense of weight is present on this sculpt.
I also want to point out that I really like Chie’s arms. I’m not much interested in feet, the one on the pillow has nice articulation though. Chie also has very nice legs, the thighs also have more volume than other figures of her category.

The glossy skin looks nice and appealing on her, if she just came out of bath or is just a little sweaty is up to your imagination. There is also a exchangeable left arm included with the figure, one where she puts her flirty index finger close to her mouth. The other arm goes downwards and the V shaped fingers are placed above her crotch, so it looks as if she would spread herself.

Yes, the panties can be taken off as well, I didn’t do it though, since she was already looking way too sexy XD. This purchase collides partially with my personal figure collecting guidelines, but since the really lewd display option is just optional, it’s all right. Fortunately, there is picture editing software and I tweaked the colors in my picture a little bit here and there.

in comparison with the source material Chie has a slightly too strong yellow tint, Color producer Higashimuki, took some liberties at his job,
I’m not entirely happy with the yellow color directions of Chie. The eyes are also in the wrong color, the eyes are more purple than clear blue. Part of Chie’s character designs appeal is the contrast of her blonde hair with her blue eyes. The purple tone has less impact.

Alltogether the figure turned out especially appealing with a cute face and dynamite body. In this adaptation is supposed to look like a grown up lady and she does for the most part.
The figure has great body sculpting and looks soft. The exchangeable parts are nice and offer a lot more display variations than I would expect from a static figure. I’m extremely happy about this Chie from Rocket Boy, she is lovely and incredibly sexy. The quality of her is actually outstanding, the optional parts offer a lot of display variations and fun.

With Chie and my previously reviewed figure of Amemiya Natsumi, I’m really looking forward to see more of Native’s / Rocket Boy’s figures in the future.

So do you think that Chie is a nice figure? I hope you enjoyed the pictures.

Today, I will present you a newU Preorder post. Uhh, what has the Figure Hobby turned into, it is more expensive than ever before, release dates became unreliable and updated dates are pushed around more regularly than ever.

Although with all those negative aspects one can not complain about the lack of beautiful figures.
This month was full of very nice figure announcements, which actually needs to the next problem…

Which one should I purchase!?

Rikka Takarada – I Believe in Future from GSC

From the SSSS Gridman show that I liked just a little bit, main heroine Rikka appears in an nice pose with parts of the base flying around her. The cute expression aside this figure is a rather ecchi creation, some will like it some won’t.

The figures proportions seems to be more inspired by pixiv artworks than how the girl looked in the anime, but that is fine since I love nicely shaped thighs like that. There aren’t many figures around with such voluminous thighs and I really like the figures expression, so I would be very happy to order the figure here. She is scheduled to be released 2021, that is for sure a long time, but I would not have to worry too much about expenses for 2020.

release date: April 2021 – list price: 19,800 Yen

Chino – Summer Uniform from PLUM

Plum just makes the best figures of young girl characters and this Chino could be easily one of their best.
The sculpt and overall presentation are so enchanting, everything about her is just so sweet and happy.
Her summer uniform accentuates her cuteness once more and everything looks quite lively.
I think from all the figures listed in the post her preorder will be set by me soon.

release date: 03 2020 – list price: 14,850 Yen

Hurdle Girl Illustration from Skytube

An figure adaptation based on a character drawn by Kekemotsu, the color palette is strong, the bold yellow jacket for example is striking. I approve about hurdle running in a black bikini and I also really appreciate that they combined the rather daring outfit with a very sweet facial expression and the golden eyes are beautiful. It seems to be a pretty figure of a nice, sweet girl in a skimpy outfit and a great looking butt.

release date: 08 2020 – list price: 19,580 yen

ARMS NOTE Kouhai-chan of the Swimming Club from AMAKUNI

I would really appreciate it if AMAKUNI would start giving bigger promo pictures to the shops, it’s just so tiny!

Ahem, while I don’t know a lot about ARMS NOTE, this stunning figures positive aura is contagious, really love the golden eyes and the happy fang. The tan suits the figure very well, especially in combination with the blue sports bikini.

release date: 09 2020 – list price: 13,618 Yen

Kantai Collection Suzuya [Xmas]mode from AMAKUNI

I forgot about Kancolle to be honest, still remember the characters that were dear to me, but I only play Azure Lane nowadays. Nevertheless this Suzuya figure is especially pretty in the nicely textured red christmas dress, the exposed shoulders and overknee black santa boots.

release date: 09 2020 – list price: 14,500 Yen

Ore o Suki nano wa Omae dakekayo – Sanshokuin Sumireko from Aniplex, Aquamarine

Her anime is on my “going to watch” list, but I really know nothing about this character. Nevertheless her figure appears to be very nonchalant and attractive, also her pose looks cool. The alternative top looks very interesting together with this school uniform, I really like the long skirt version in blue.

release date: 08 2020 – list price: 13,182 Yen

Teletha Testarossa: Maid version from Phat Company

In 2018, 13 years later FMP received a new season, not as great as I wanted it to be, you can’t just use content from 13 years ago and expect people to be all excited about a so so adaptation that ended with a cliffhanger. I did finish the light novel because of it and at least Tessa got 3 more figures because of it, but I think this one was the nicest.

release date: 08 2020 – list price: 16,280 Yen

Iya na Kao Sarenagara Opantsu Misetemoraitai Hon Chitose Itou STD version from Alphamax

The angry panty flashing girls are surprisingly popular and this character even got the second adaptation. doing something you don’t like, but still doing it nevertheless is a weird fetish. Anyway a scornful maid is somewhat interesting. There are 2 versions available, one with castoff option and one without, in any case you get the 2 faces, one that shows you even more disgust, you swine!

release date: 06 2020 – list price: 19,580 Yen

Asuka Soryu Langley -Gothic Lolita Ver.- :Re from Kotobukiya

This figure is apparently a reissue from a figure first time released in 2004, the new Asuka figure has a nicer anime style face and a few more smaller differences made, I really like the base with the stairs, the gothic lolita dress is nice anyway.

release date: 05 2020 – list price: 12,800 Yen

Sansei Muramasa – Character’s Selection from Rocket Boy

I really like Sansei Muramasa, but this here is the tainted love version apparently, bondage, chain around the neck, it’s all quite kinky. The figure has an alternative face plate and alternative hip part. I’m really not sure about purchasing this figure, it’s a bit too erotic and display in the open might be interesting.

I know the origin of the figure and while most visual novels have sexual scenes, but Soukou Akki Muramasa is very grim and not vanilla. Still seems to be a great looking figure just not really my cup of tea.

release date: 08 2020 – list price: 17,500 Yen

And now I will show you my latest preorders concerning 2020. The ambitious plan is to order only 8 new figures in 2020, delayed figures doesn’t count at this. I admit with those delays together it looks like I lost control ahahaha.

Asuka Langley – RADIO EVA Original Color

A quite nice figure adaptation of Asuka. There are 2 color variations of this Asuka figure, I decided to get the less saturated one.

Lacia – Black Monolith Deployed version

I’m outing myself … as fan of the Beatles anime, a big reason was the charming Lacia voiced by Touyama, Nao. The figure doesn’t show Lacia’s pretty smile but at least she looks like from the anime. I decided against the cheaper version, I rather want the cool one haha.

Takimoto Hifumi – Witch version

Ummm, why did I buy a figure of Hifumi, I think it’s a very cute figure with the breezy witch outfit and the gigantic hat.

Juliana Eberhardt

I became quite a fan of the odd Raita design, while the body proportions look something special, I’m really addicted to great faces Raita creates. Great coincidence that I also love summer and bikinis, Phat Company also announced a figure of the more friendly looking Riela Marcellis. I will definitely order her, too.

Matoi – Nidy-2D version

The nidy version is so adorable I decided to watch a few episodes of the anime Phantasy Star Online 2 – Episode Oracle, before I would order this Matoi, unfortunately also there she is a cute angel, although she didn’t wear this great outfit so far.

I wish everyone a wonderful start into 2020, I look forward to another year of exciting figures in 2020.

Nanami Aoi has been released in June 2019, she is scaled 1/6 and measures 290mm. She has been adapted from an artwork of illustrator momi and sculpted by Hocke. She was manufactured by Rocket Boy and distributed by Native.

I’m a fan of Rocket Boy since their first figure, Chitose in 2016. The illustrated characters they chose for figure adaptations are often very cute and aren’t presented in a too lewd context.

The body sculpting is simply perfect in every regard, the skin a light glossy finish, it’s really not too glossy it tries recreating the look of sunscreen, sweat and water.

It’s been a while that I received an ero figure and to be honest I missed to take pictures of pretty and nude figures.

I like this figure a lot, the idea with her climbing up the pool ladder as base is great. In her standing pose she has an impressive size. The figure is so beautiful the body is quite stunning and the articulation of her pose is quite nice.

She has long dark blue hair, there is a detailed front hair with very fine strands, the longer hairat the back is separated into several strands of varying thickness, the longer strands tips are touching her butt. As hair decoration there is a check patterned yellow ribbon and a silver clip.

The figures face, boobs and butt can all be viewed at the same time, the figures gaze is directed behind her with her expressive amber colored eyes, she creates a feeling of shyness and seduction while still being somehow mysterious.

The face has been sculpted and painted with attention to detail, the eyes are very pretty and there is some blush applied on her cheeks and also a bright reflection point. From a few angles her rather nervous looking mouth turns into a friendly smile which is quite interesting.

Optionally she can either be displayed with half downed swimsuit or nude with high heels. I my opinion it would be a crime to cover such a nicely shaped butt, so I didn’t bother to take pictures of her half dressed alternative body.

Her boobs have an above average size, but not on the too big side, it’s a completely different story with her backside, the figure has really wide hips and a really big butt and I really, really like that asspect of Nanami Aoi.

There are those metallic colored rings at the arms and legs that cover the separation gaps that are necessary for the body swapping process. I really like the naturally nude appearance of the figure. It is only a little unfortunate about those few parts that are distracting the clean look of the figure.

The Nanami Aoi figure has a beautiful female body, everything looks nice and smooth, the gentitals are visible but not in a lewd way, it’s simply there and that is good

I also don’t know why the girl is wearing high heels at the pool.

Final Words

Nanami Aoi has the best butt ever seen on a figure, the sculptor did a really great job with this and also everything else about this figure. Her face is lovely, she also has a creative base, a really nice pose and just looks fantastic overall.

This year I managed to prepare a Halloween themed setup with the lovely Succubus~san figure in the center.

I had a lot of fun with this stage, that I decorated with spiderwebs, blood candles, fog, tentacles and popcorn, I like how the popcorn resembles bloody bones and btw it smelled wonderful XD

Hello fellow figure collectors, on February the 18th was the annual Wonder Festival Winter event, the first Wonder Festival of 2018. The figure manufacturers exhibited their current projects and planned figures for the future.

I had a very positive impression of this years event, I hope you also liked it. It was a nice mix of quite different figures from different origin. I was really happy about the new Sairenji Haruna from Alter, the charming Takagi san, an 1/6 scaled Rico from Made in Abbys and finally a beautiful figure of Louise Françoise Le Blanc de la Vallière as bride.

Of course there were many more eye catching figures, also in the ero category the manufacturers did not disappoint.

朱鷺長のフォトブログ

I really appreciate the effort of those people, they make the Wonderfestival events accessible for us.

This figure is actually a bit over the top, I won’t say that I have a interest in latex fashion, but nevertheless what I liked about that figure is the ojou – sama personality combined with an “interesting” outfit and the captured activity.

Slingshot Swimwear Girl is an Limited + Exclusive figure made by Rocket Boy and distributed by Native, she was released in mid September 2017. The figure was sculpted by Hokke, the character is based on the art of Cle Masahiro, the pixiv works look really nice. The attractive figure is scaled 1/6 and in her pose she measures 22 cm.

The figure has a red floored base and can be placed on a fancy, pink stool.The stool is a very good base for the figure, she looks great on it. To adapt the illustration faithfully, a high school school uniform and bag are included, it’s a combined piece, you can’t use the bag separately. A smartphone is included, the figure can hold it in her hand, it shows the figures illustration on the display and has girly, heart shaped straps.

The figure is portraying a beautiful highschool girl with a cute round face and pointy chin. She has brown eyebrows and expressive, detailed, pretty blue eyes. Her mouth shows a gentle smile. Overall she looks like an ojou – sama from a good situated family. Judging by her appearance and facial expression, the girl is well nurtured and happy, she doesn’t look like an arrogant gyaru to me. The figure has beautiful, long blonde hair styled into a great looking ponytail.

I really like the smooth, wavy strands with their subtle curl. It’s good that the figures hair color resembles real blonde instead of gaudy yellow. The elaborately sculpted fringe gives the figure a cute appearance as well.

So what is this beautiful girl doing here, a selfie to capture her youthful beauty or is it for Twitter? Considering that she is probably still in highschool… Don’t upload it! It was interesting that this figure adapted part of the selfie culture or better said sexy selfie. there are many opinions about that on the web, most prominent are the opinions against it, be it women searching for verification of men. Or that people who upload their sexy selfies are overly narcistic or insecure.

As male I have nothing against pretty girls taking selfies of their faces or body to show them on social media, but always remember to keep it tasteful. When someone is mentally grown up and self aware enough, feels attractive and want to capture that moment it’s up to oneself if she or he wants to be seen and judged on the web.

I think it’s cute how the girl curiously admires her sexy selfie portray on her smartphone screen with a bit of pride. Our Slingshot Swimwear Girl has a weird perception of a sexy dress, it’s actually hilarious what this figure is wearing.

The girl is dressed in a shiny red slingshot bikini accompanied by arm long gloves and latex stockings with lacing. The extremely shiny red looks really good on her. The darker shading gives everything a nice and realistic look.

As you have probably already noticed, the figures body sculpting is excellent, she ïs beautiful in every regard.

The figure has an attractive, curvy body and she has smooth looking skin. The figure is equipped with rather big boobs, by ero figure standards it’s still a modest size, I think it’s nice not to have more normal sizes from time to time. A few people also mentioned the sideboobs which are a nice aspect, too. The pose turns out to be a nicely articulated one, the arched back highlights the figures especially nice butt, I also like how the stockings accentuate these lovely thighs. Of course there is a cast off option, although the outfit is already super skimpy from the beginning. Nevertheless, that way you can admire her beautifully sculpted body a bit more. Her boobs look great and she also has a pretty vagina.

Final Words

The figure is a wonderful adaption of the art of Cle Masahiro, he illustrates especially adorable faces and the ecchi bits aren’t bad either. A thing I always like about Rocket Boy, is that they always manage to give their figures a sweet appearance and certain kind of personality. Slingshot Swimwear Girl is a very good example for that, her lovely expression is great. Overall the figure on her base looks stunning, articulation, the perfect body sculpting and the expression of her face, everything is very well done. It’s a gorgeous young lady in a quite naughty outfit.

 
On the 30th of July, this years Wonder Festival [Summer] was held, all the different manufacturers came together to present their upcoming figures and prototypes. Often it’s an exciting day for me, this year it was a bit less enjoyable.

Normally the mix of painted and grey prototypes and Illustrations that were chosen for figure adaptions make wonfes enjoyable for figure collectors, but this time nearly everything shown was a grey prototype, I really expected to see some prototypes from the last Wonder Festival being painted. Fate Go and Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata ♭ -seemed a bit hyped. There were of course some nice figure prototypes I will show you my favorites here in my small summary.

Ashikaga Chachamaru – Soukou Akki Muramasa

This Chachamaru was my biggest joy to see at the Wonderfestival, she is so beautiful, her expression with her gaze over the shoulder and the general articulation are just great.

Lala Satalin Deviluke  – Onepiece Style – To LOVEru Darkness

Haha that is a hilarious pose for this happy Lala figure ❤

Konjiki no Yami – To LOVEru Darkness

Katou Megumi – Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata ♭ – Dress Ver.

Iowa – Half Damage Ver. – Kantai Collection

Oh something was painted on this rather monochrome event ahahaha. I’m not a real Iowa fan, but she looks interesting and I really like her legs.

Kouhai-chan – Getsuyoubi no Tawawa

Louise Françoise Le Blanc de la Vallière – Finale Wedding Ver. – Zero no Tsukaima

Kyahhh! After the last season of ZnT I was hoping that another figure of Louise or even her friends would be made,but my hopes were crushed bitterly. Now after 5! years after Zero no Tsukaima F, I will get a bride figure of my first anime waifu ❤❤❤! that actually sounds too good to be true.

Kasumi – Renewal – Dead or Alive 5 Last Round

I actually always liked the old Kasumi from Max Factory, but had the impression that it could be better, so this “Renewal” announcement makes me curious.

In the year I liked the varietyon the Kotobukiya booth

 Nishizumi Miho – Girls und Panzer der Film

Jabami Yumeko – Kakegurui

Kani Nayuta – Imouto sae Ireba Ii.

 Morikubo Nono – iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls

Izumi Sagiri – Eromanga Sensei

You don’t see figures like that very often I think the girl with the watergun is truly enchantïng ❤

Tamaki Ako – Netoge no Yome wa Onna no Ko Janai to Omotta?  

Awww it’s Ako ❤❤❤
I would like to have a figure of the cute heroine of Netoge. This figure looks already quite promising and she is so cute.

Ooyodo – Kantai Collection

Kancolle figures aren’t as popular as in previous years, but they are still being made. I like Ooyodo and it is nice to see her painted, she looks just great and just enchanting. Apparently this figure doesn’t heavily rely on fanservice, it’s mainly a good design.

Original Character –  Happoubi Jin

I liked the butterfly lady from FLARE, the more realistic character design makes it quite interesting and the overall look is also appealing.

Saber – Okita Souji – Fate/Grand Order

I tried my.best to ignore everything labeled Fate GO but this cute adaption of Saber is just right up my alley. Some months ago I already saw the beautiful garage kit and so the news of it getting a Pvc figure adaption makes me extremely happy.

Original Character – Yabu Sudare Haji na Maid-san – Skytube Premium

This commando maid figure is quite interesting with a decent paintjob it will be hard to resist.

Sawamura Spencer Eriri – Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata ♭

Original Character – Skytube Premium – Sameshima Urara

Yes, please!

Original Character – I.V.E – White Elf

Original Character – I.V.E – Laura Mischief

Tsukikawa Saki – Mashumaro☆Imouto☆Succubus☆ 

Kuramoto Erika – Mahou Shoujo

Erika is finally painted and I was very surprised how nice she turned out, just look at her beautiful face, I like the half naked angel.

Original Character – Injection Time! Sakurako

I remember that I’ve been waiting for this figure to get painted since 5 damn years, would someone please take the time to paint this precious figure for the next Wonderfestival already.

Original Character – Saito Masatsugu

I really like that idea, the character is cute and even though it’s a nude figure, it’s not a naughty one, you even get a tripod with camera.

Original Character – Klone

I also liked this funny figure, cheerfully swinging around her whip. I think the sadistic but also happy expression gives her something specïal. The figures nice body also looks interesting, she ïs a DFC character with some seriously nicely endowed hips

Wagaya No Liliana-san – Liliana

I this high kick pose is cool Hopefully this Liliana won’t be as glossy as her other figures so far.

Non Virgin – Suguri Hiromi – Bunny Girl

While I really appreciate the style of Oda Non and the high level of craftsmanship, I don’t need the additionally lewdness with these rings and stuff XD Ahahaha but there will be more hot ladies in this lewd lineup.

Kuroinu ~Kedakaki Seijo wa Hakudaku ni Somaru~ – Olga Discordia

Next to that BINDing selected a few great looking illustrations to adapt into figures, with their level of qualïty I have high expectations of these projects. Can I expect to see a figure of the blonde Dark Elf in the future, too?

Original Character – Morning

Original Character – necömi

Original Character – Warabino Matsuri 

I feel quite interested in this one ❤

 
That’s all folks, this Wonderfestival 2017 Summer didn’t make me as happy as previous events, it still was nice to see a few interesting things. I feel a bit sad about the lack of Granblue Fantasy, I would have been so happy about a Lyria figure, I also would have liked to see a figure of Lailah (Tales of Zestiria the X).I don’t like that there were so many things from that hyped Fate Go, or other overly popular things, I would have prefered a bït more variety from the manufacturers. The nagging won’t stop here yet, I also expected to see some of the grey prototypes from the previous wonfes painted, did the Summer Wonderfestival came so surprisingly for the manufacturers?

How was your impression from the event?
Did you feel satisfied with everything and also saw some things you want?

In the end I would say that a limited number of must haves is good, considering the figure prices nowadays.

Take a look at my preordered figures of this time…

Sonico – 10th Anniversary Wedding Ver.

Yeah, I had to get Sonico, captured in her happiest moment. The sweet bride is scaled 1/6 and with the elaborate dress she is an extremely beautiful Sonico figure, the smile is really lovely and nearly grabs all the attention, still even on the day of her wedding, Sonico chose a skimpy outfit to please her fans. The sculptor also gave her a buxom dynamite body, more voluptuous than usually shown, she has big boobs, delicious thighs and also an remarkable big butt.

Sonico also comes with an alternate expression that shows her with closed and a kiss mouth, there also was a special version with human sized wedding rings and marriage certificate, but I’m not so rich nor so obsessed about Sonico.

manufacturer: GSC – scale: 1/6 – release: January 2018

Saber – Type-Moon Racing ver

Ah, that Saber is a Saber I like, as Grid Girl she looks very cheerful and cute, I love her expression with the turned eyes and open mouth smile, the breezy outfit looks great on her and reveal a bit more of Saber’s sporty body. The additional Excalibur umbrella is a nice eyecatcher, although there will be the option to pose her left arm differently. It’s actually my first preorder of figure made by the manufacturer Stronger, I’m expecting a really nice looking figure.

manufacturer: Stronger – scale: 1/7 – release: August 2017

Suma May – Issho ni Shiyo

The figure is based on a shorter ero manga scene, but May is so beautiful, that I just had to order her. She is a pretty blonde girl dressed in a super villain like dress. Her slightly flustered and embarrassed expression is great, especially when it is combined with her attractive body that portrays her soft curves which are also accentuated by her dress.

manufacturer: Dragon Toy – scale: 1/6 – release: June 2017

Original Character – Hanasaki Marika

I also have pre ordered this cute and cuddly figure, she has an adorable and great expression and the pink hair has a pretty, rather innocent looking style. The extremely attractive figure obviously has beautifully shaped thighs and a soft and beautiful round butt. I like the figures half nude presentation, with the loose white shirt and somehow pulled up panties, she looks barely dressed or nearly nude, depending on ones perspective. Marika is not only a figure, she also has a complete bathroom wall diorama base and the bathroom lamp also is fully function able.

manufacturer: Native – scale: 1/7 – release: October 2017

Original Character – Slingshot Swimwear Girl

The last ordered figure recently looks like a good mannered ojou sama, although the thing she is performing currently are not very ojou sama like. Well, social media offers many ways to express oneself, in her case I won’t judge. She has a pretty, self confident expression and a really stunning body. After I placed my order for this figure, I noticed that I bought a number of this kind of figures recently and started to feel a little ashamed about it, I always had interest in these naughty figures, but I ignore the completely lewd ones though, since they are not that interesting and appealing to me. What I like about the so called “naughty figures” is that they combine elaborately designed expressions with really attractive and detailed bodies, I like both aspects. In my opinion there should be more dressed figures with such interesting and elaborately made faces, too. You can try to look for such figures, good luck with that haha.

manufacturer: Rocket Boy – scale: 1/6 – release: August 2017

Interesting figures

Lets take a look at a few selected figures that were recently listed in the shops and left a positive impression. Among the listed items are a few things I totally would like to have, but I have to see how my current pre orders turn out.

Aty – Summon Night 3

I always liked the characterdesign of Aty, the figure adaption from ALTER already was great, but it did not have the sweet expression of this one we are seeing here. Another great aspect of the new figure is the size, Aty is scaled 1/5.

manufacturer: Phat Company – scale: 1/5 – release: October 2017

Kanzaki Ranko – Idolmaster Cinderella Girls – Bara no Yami Hime Ver.

This figure of Ranko looks amazing in every regard. Of course, I expected her to be expensive, but she actually turned out even more expensive, that I had to reconsider my preorder plans for her, at the moment I don’t see it happen.

manufacturer: ALTER – scale: 1/7 – release: November 2017

Albedo – Overlord

My first impression on Albedo was not so good, but after a second look, she appears to be very pretty, I still find her pose to be a bit unfortunately chosen, her face seems to be pointing at the cealing, with such a beautiful head the figure should be looking at the viewer. Anyway from a photographers perspective she might be a good purchase.

manufacturer: GSC – scale: 1/8 – release: December 2017

Mai Kawakami – Myriad Colors Phantom World

Kyahh! she looks so nice and pretty! Mai Kawakamai unfortunately was really used as fanservice machine in the her first episode, even I felt sorry for her ;D In a normal anime you should not sell off your characters like that. She really is a nice girl with a kind personality that deserves a modest figure adaption, too. Frankly speaking the figure also highlights the fanservice aspects, but it’s a pretty figure of Mai with an adorable face, pretty hair and a very attractive body.

manufacturer: Ques Q – scale: 1/7 – release: October 2017

Oppai no Kakikata – Hazumi Oomune illustration by Nekoume

The quite busty figure is very charming, the huge breasts are not the only appealing points of her, the character design by Nekoume is quite lovely with the cute face and hairstyle. As additionally feature she comes with this friendly face and a different bashful expression, the figure also has glasses, to my surprise everything about her outfit turned out to be castoffable. I feel a bit shy to add another fanservice heavy figure to my preorders, but she looks so nice.

manufacturer: Alphamax – scale: 1/6 – release: October 2017

Jack-O – GUILTY GEAR Xrd -REVELATOR-

I admit that I never saw this Jack-O character before, but when I saw the figure I was quite impressed by how cool and pretty she looks, everything about this figure looks really cool and stylish, I like the outfit and her expressive face.

manufacturer: Aquamarine – scale: 1/7 – release: September 2017

Belphegor  – The Seven Deadly Sins – Maou Mokushiroku

The “Sin Nanatsu no Taizai” anime finally started and it’s more arthouse like, as I would have ever expected, the characters were nicely adapted and bring the figures we all probably bought in the past to life. Did you know the very first figure of them were made in 2013? The later Maou Mokushiroku versions continue to be very interesting and Belphegor looks also very pretty even though or especially in the naughty pole dance context.

manufacturer: Orchid Seed – scale: 1/7 – release: December 2017

Izetta – Shuumatsu no Izetta

I don’t know how it had been for you, but while I followed the war adventures of Izetta I was always worried sick about her, like a parent, I imagined really terrible things happening to her. Fortunately Aoshima / Funny Knights made this happy looking Izetta riding on a machine gun. They really adapted her dress nicely and put her into an dynamic pose.

manufacturer: Funny Knights – scale: 1/8 – release: May 2017
