The To LOVE-Ru (To LOVEる -とらぶる-) anime started in 2008 as a cute romantic comedy with ecchi elements. It was a succesful project with several seasons and OVA’s.

Lala is a very cheerful and carefree girl, sometimes she is quite airheaded, although she is an engineer and inventor of advanced gadgets, unfortunately her funny machines always have a certain bug that create ecchi and embarrasing events for main character Rito and all of his female friends. Lala can get a little annoying, but in my book she’s an likeable character.

In the latest adaption To LOVE-Ru Darkness the former main characters Lala and Sairenji Haruna were reduced to side characters, a development I still feel somewhat angry about.

Fortunately a figure of the sweet Lala Satalin Deviluke was released 2016. After I already received a great figure of Haruna Sairenji in 2015, another one of my favorite TLR heroines arrived, the one I will review today is the Lala Satalin Deviluke – swimsuit version from ALTER.
She was sold as limited + exclusive figure on AmiAmi, fortunately for affordable 10,926 Yen.

The figure of Lala is scaled 1/6, her height of 26,5 cm is very appealing, this stunning beach beauty was sculpted by Ryujin. She was released earlier this year in mid February 2016.

What first meets the eye is, that her skimpy outfit is quite tantalizing, on another note it really accentuates her first class body sculpting, she just looks marvelous and gorgeous.

Next to borderline ecchi comed,ythe success of To LOVE-Ru is also partially based on the sweet and pretty character designs with the distinctive eyes. Lala has an especially sweet face on this figure adaption, she wears an expression where seems to be lost in thoughts. I love such thoughtful expressions, but Lala seems also a little coy here, maybe she thinks if her outfit was the right choice for the date with her chosen one today.

The figures face is just so beautiful with her wonderful green eyes, also the finely printed lines and eyebrows  are quite nice. And for my taste she has the perfect blush, her slightly opened mouth gives her face a more elaborate appearance and brings this figure of Lala to life.

Her long, flying hair also looks great and detailed, with funny ahoge, it’s an especially nicely sculpted hairstyle with seperated strands that create a sense of depth. It’s an attractive pink color, the tips and shading  have amore bright shade of pink. As decoration there is the Peke hairclip, Peke is actually a highly advanced robot who manages Lala’s wardrobe, but it is also an intelligent and devoted companion of her.

Apparently Lala isn’t wearing many clothes, it’s a hot outfit for the hot summer ^^. It consist of a skimpy white bikini top, blue hotpants and converse all star oxford trainers similar shoes.

Her white triangle bikini tightly hugs the ample boobs and illustrate the illusion of soft skin, it’s straps are sculpted separate from the body, the gap between straps and body is nice. Lala’s hotpants are not only tiny, but also unbuttoned and barely hide the crucial places, which makes things more ecchi. The shoes are very detailed and underline the feeling of summer.

Like aforementioned Lala has a stunningly attractive body, the sculptor really did his best in making her body look detailed andcovetable. Just looking at her marvelous belly sets the viewer into pleasant delight. The overall very smooth skin is simply perfect for such a skin revealing figure. Lala has wonderfully shaped breast and buttocks, too. The arched back pose considerable lift her boobs upwards and the tight bikini accentuates the soft illusion.

Aside from that, the figure also has cute small hands with nicely articulated fingers. As member of a alien race of Deviluke Lala has a tail, colored in dark but with red color tip.
Haha in the anime and mange the sensitive of her tail was to blame for hilarious moments.

Final Words

So far Lala Satalin Deviluke – swimsuit version is my favorite figure from the ones I’ve received this year. One of her obvious charm points is definetely her super attractive body, but also such an adorable head has been put on it, so it turned into a nice combination of sexy (honestly very sexy) and moe. Ryujin and ALTER gave her an interesting expression and nicely articulated pose as well. This figure is a striking example of an extremely attractive beach girl.

This Lala Satalin Deviluke is of very high quality, a gorgeous and appealing design and top notch execution as final product convince me and I’m overjoyed by this beautiful figure.

Since 2008 my interest in To Love Ru faded a little, especially since the development of Darkness, also my interest in harem anime in general obviously decreased over the years.
Still it feels nice to have such a pretty figure of an anime I really enjoyed once.

Do you like this figure of ALTER’s Lala Satalin Deviluke – swimsuit version?
I hope I could convey my super positive impression of this figure.

It’s been quite some time since my last Preorder post, let’s say I didn’t order as fast as before.
Since last post I ordered 4 more great figures and as rare happenng 1 girly figma.

In case you are wondering how I can buy new figures all the time, at the moment Im playing “old figure out – new figure in” it’s a bad way of maintaining your collection hobby and I feel really bad for selling them, but I don’t have so much space availabe to keep them all forever.

At least keeping my very favorite figures remains top priority, it’s not like I’m going to sell these.

Next to the usual ecchi happyness I ordered some iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls related stuff.

Figma – Jougasaki Mika – Max Factory

Hey a figma! This young lady was sold as limited exclusive item through the GSC store, I guess you could have bought her on last Wonfes, as well. It’s a flashy figma with a cool outfit, what appears to be a school uniform, but with a very casual touch, overall a very feminine design. I mainly got her for her vulnerable blush face and the pretty hair, the grin is rather scary

release date will be in November 2013 – price 3500 Yen

Shibuya Rin – New Generation version – GSC

I was sure to get this figure since I’ve seen her as grey prototype on Wonfes. As I’ve seen her painted, I was quite impressed by this fabulous songstress, a lot of frill and shiny dark colors, the fine details on her dress look great. Rin herself is also a petite and pretty girl with a cute singing face, I love how she is swinging her microphone stand, these boots look great.

Im not as hyped about this purchase as before, but it should be fun to photograph her

release date will be in January 2014 – price 7030 Yen

Shimamura Uzuki – New Generation version – GSC

Another Idol, now it’s enough sir. While Rin is a dark raven Uzuki comes as sweet rasperry cake.
Her cheerful and energetic look and attitude is contagious. The outfit is rather playful, yet skin revealing. She has an exposed belly and a short, short skirt. I like the detailed pattern on her frilly skirt . I would have been satisfiied with the closed eyes face only, but GSC played it safe and ships Uzuki with a second face to please more collectors, it’s good to have the option.

It would be cool if the sizes of Rin and Uzuki would match in the end.

release date will be in April 2014 – price 7200 Yen

freshly ordered

Yagyuu – Senran Kagura – Vertex

I like Senran Kagura and I already have two figures from that line, Hibari and Katsuragi (review comes soon). Senran Kagura is popular for featuring characters with a bit more meat, where it matters (￣▽+￣*). Yagyuu’s complete dress is a little boring in the manga, but in this figure adaption her “uniform” is in a damaged state with parts of her scarf and a torn skirt. I was close to order her since some weeks, but delayed my decision a bit longer until I felt convinced enough. I love her pretty face, the super twintails, the super sexy curves in combination with the pose and her traditional umbrella. Why have I resisted so long after all? she’s my type of figure.

release date will be in January 2014 – price 7690 Yen

Yuki – Maid Yome – Orchid Seed

Don’t buy masturbating figures, that was something I really never wanted to do, but ok rules in collecting figures are meant to last for only a short period of time. Orchid Seed makes a lot of appealing figures, but Yuki is an exceptional pretty figure. At first I wanted  to talk Miette into ordering her, but after checking a few first reviews and pictures, I knew that I wanted this one, after all I snatched one of the last copy’s at Hobby Link Japan. Yuki’s ecchi activities aside, the character is also cute with a sweet face, vanilla colored hair, a nice skintone and perfect boobs.

release date was in October 2013 I ordered her last minute – price 7457 Yen

Upcoming figures I’m interested in – Im not sure about these, but at least I find them overly appealing and like to list the upcoming or just announced figures.

Princess Milk – Hime to Boin – Orchid Seed

Argh, crotch focused figures are so hard to display without feeling a creep, I could put a flower pot in front, wait thats a great idea XD. It’s mean to give ecchi figures such beautiful faces and the figures seems to be sculpted nicely, it seems nearly impossible to pass for me （*´▽｀*）.

release date will be in June 2014

Sonico – Santa, Swimsuit version – Alter

Sonico! Alter makes a figure of my beloved 2D girl. Wait, busty figures ? They don’t do that very often, but having a sweet Sonico from Alter has a nice ring to it. This early production sample is already enchanting enough with important blush marks and a tight bikini. The christmas hoodie is castoffable, to give Sonico an all seasons beach girl appearance. Ah yes, she’s scaled 1/7.

release date will be in 2014, hopefully Alter will overcome their vicious circle of delays next year.

Airy Ardet – Shining Blade – Kotobukiya

A simple, conservatie figure adaption of Airy, but still I find it cute how the kind and innocent looking girl is carrying her basket full of bread of happiness, maybe I’ll get her after release.

release date will be in March 2014

Sonico – Mouse version – Wing

(ﾟ∀ﾟ)☞  That’s really good stuff, not painted, but there’s already a release date, so it shouldn’t take too long until preorder will be accepted. That’s a nice Sonico figure with the usual combination of cute and sexy here she is with funny mouse ears. It looks like they transferred some fat from her boobs to her buttocks, which is a great design choice for this lovely figure.

release date will be in March 2014

Rias Gremory – Highschool DxD –  Pole Dance version – Kaitendoh

I feel offended when a character I know gets onebad figure adaptions after another, everything before Kaitendoh was a real dissapointment in my eyes. This is a chance for a promising Rias Gremory figure, the sculptor of this figure, Katsuaki Nemoto  already worked on Cat Lap Milk, so this Rias should turn out very well without much risk. She is shown from the funny, no spectacular Ending Theme of the first season of High School DxD. The face is spot on and the pole dance outfit looks good. I wouldn’t mind to own this attractive figure earlier or later.

release date will be in November 2013

Ousawa Miu – Y-shirt version – FREEing

This simple yet nice figure of  Miu, is portrayed in a self confident, nonchalant pose, but her facial expressionsays something different and  appears rather flustered, befitting her character in the anime. The long twintails look nice, but unfortunately the hair is not very detailed, same applies to her open shirt. The body nevertheless looks quite nice. On the bottomline I’m not getting this one at full price, but maybe when her prize drops.

release date will be in February 2014

Yagami Hayate – Nanoha The Movie 2nd A’s – Gift

A new sandcastle friend! I love my cute and demure big scale Fate figure, but I think Hayate is even cuter with her realistic haircolor, friendly blue eyed face and a lightly opened mouth, she warms up my heart. I think she is a very good addition to the already released happy Nanoha and calm Fate 1/4 scaled swimsuit figures from Gift. I don’t know where they buy these skimpy bikini’s, I think it’s to spice things a bit up. Hayate is  lovely like this, maybe she’ll need a hat.

release date will be in January 2014
