Today I will show you a very pretty Sonico figure from Wave, after making number of 1/10 scaled Beach Queens, they returned with nice figures recently of much bigger scale and muh nicer quality. Sonico – bikiny style version has been released in November 2020. The figure is scaled 1/7 which make her 21,5 cm in height, sculpted by Zuiko.

The figure comes with a candy pink base with fluffy white plush on top, not really fitting for the beach, but the figure could also show Sonico during one of the indoor gravure idol model jobs.

I actually planned to review the Sonico – Summer Vacation version from Orchid Seed, but after some brawl with Nippon Yasan they cancelled all my orders and I got my money back. Unfortunately I didn’t find a good deal for her afterwards, maybe another time. Thx to all the delays 2020 to 2021 my carefully planned preorders changed a lot. I’ll have to pay several figure orders in these next 2 months, it’s a bit of a bad situation for me, that hopefully ends soon.

The figures face is quite adorable, sparkling pink eyes, blushed cheeks and a happy open mouth. The sculpting of her mouth could have been a bit more detailed, but that is like the only thing to criticize on this really nice bikini figure.

The hair on this Sonico figure is longer than on other figures of her, it’s done very detailed and has a lovely pink to sky blue gradient. Her trademark headphones look extremely detailed and the bow is made from metal.

Sonico also wears a beautiful necklace, as detailed as her nice headphones.

This Sonico reveals a lot of skin, the nearly nude appearance of the figure aside, it actually creates a happy beach atmosphere. Overall she has nice and gentle colors, Sonico has a beautiful skintone, a beautiful body anyway.

Super Sonico the ambassador of thicc/curvy body, back then Sonico was basically the first popular anime style character with a more curvy anatomy who appeals to both men and women, even with her sexy body she always has been portrayed as a friendly and good girl with an innocent personality. Many figures and illustrations have been made, not all are especially innocent. I bought a number of Sonico figures back in the days, but only the ones I liked a lot.

The bikini, as skimpy as it is still is made very detailed, realistic looking wrinkles and a tight fit, it’s a little funny how the bikini top appears to stressed from holding up Sonic’s proud assets.

Sonico’s flirty pose, is quite bold but with such a cute face one can’t accuse her of being lewd. Honestly, the pose is very good, bend over Sonico highlights her beautiful chest before her arms and sticks out her nice round butt. It is a similar pose like the Sonico – Racing version from Max Factory has, but not quite the same.

The boobs and cleavage look very inviting and soft, the illusion of the soft skin is very well done. Her hips and legs also look soft and squishy, the bikini bottom cuts deep into her skin, wearing it for more than a few hours is probably not advisable. I really like the articulations of her arms and the hands that are placed on top of her leg.

Final Words – This 1/7 scaled figure of Super Sonico is nice, Wave did a very good job her, everything is nicely detailed and cleanly done. She was sculpted very well wih a beautiful body line, it shows Sonico with attractive body fat articulated in a sexy pose. The skimpy clothes work very well in combination with the figures body and the signs of weight and stretch limits are visible, which is more fun than it sounds like. Additionally she has very nice hair and headphones, the face is pretty and cute. Alltogether the Super Sonico – bikini style is one of the better Sonico figures and quite enchanting.

Sonico has been a favorite of mine, since I started with this blog. My first figure of her was the Sonico – Bondage version from Orchid Seed in 2011 and within the past 7 years I bought around a dozen more. Of course I parted with a few, but I always stayed a fan. Today I will show you my latest Sonico figure dress in a bridal outfit.

Recently the perfect figure for Sonico fans around the globe has been released, the Sonico – 10th Anniversary Wedding version from Good Smile Company. She was available in three version, a standard version, you’ll see in this review, as Marriage Box -SILVER- with two silver rings or as Marriage Box -GOLD- with two gold rings.

And here she is as cheerful bride, balancing on one foot. It was a fight to get her on the base, you would not believe it.

The wedding rings and marriage documents aside, the standard version is not different in any way, the figure is quite nice on it’s own, she has a cute additional “before kiss” faceplate and overall a beautiful design. I really like Sonico, but I passed on these wedding ring sets, also because of the price *cough*.

The design was provided by Tsuji Santa, who is behind the design for most Sonico figures, it’s truly amazing that his creations receive so much love and awareness. The illustration was adapted into a figure is the aspiring sculptor Chiaki.

The figure was released on June 25th, 2018. She is scaled 1/6 and measures 35 cm ! her base measures around 10 cm alone already *argh* she doesn’t fit in the shelf that way, 2 steps on the stair podest would have been enough.

The Sonico wedding version has fantastic hair with a wonderful sense of movement. I can’t remember a Sonico figure that had better looking hair, It’s super detailed with her usual soft, pastel pink color with a darker shade at the edge.

The face showcases Tsuji Santa’s current style of his long time Sonico project. The cute face has big eyes with a lively and nicely detailed iris. The bride shows a gentle, open mouth smile with wide front teeth line. The additional face isn’t any less appealing, the “before kiss” face creates a special atmosphere. With the lightly closed eyes and detailed eyelashes, her face looks so cute. There is also her pretty mouth with her soft shiny lips waiting to be kissed.

On first glimpse the sweet bride Sonico makes a strong impression, while towering on her stairs clad in velvet like material. The complex outfit with the huge skirt and all the cute details looks just impressive. the outfits pearl white color creates a beautiful harmony with the girls pale pinkish skin and honestly her design shows a lot of skin, it’s nice.

Sonico is presented in an as bold as beautiful dream in pearl white, I bet Sonico would be highly embarrassed to wear that during the official ceremony. It could have been a bit less skin revealing, the top looks a bit funny.

Her boobs are covered and supported by two thin straps with leads to this high amount of sideboobs, I’m not fully convinced by that part, it should have rather been a standard shoulderfree design with a tasteful cleavage. Of course her center cleavage looks beautiful, but I don’t know if a wedding dress needs to show side boobs. I partially really love her dress, although the wedding dress rather turned out to be an outfit for the wedding night.

Nevertheless the outfit has so many beautiful aspects, like the veil with the pastel blue and red roses and it’s other small details. Also the wonderful skirt with it’s fine details and soft folds. Around her waist, Sonico wears a fancy corsage with garterbelt that leads to her pretty stockings, the stretching effect has been adapted quite convincing. The high rising panties fortunately doesn’t cover much of her butt. The arm long gloves are very pretty, in her right hand Sonico can hold a beautifully arranged floral bouquet, the ribbons are sculpted in a playful and dynamic manner.

The design team has been quite generous about the wedding versions curves ♡♡♡.

Sonico has a stunning buxom body in this figure adaption, her boobs are quite voluptuous here, personally I would not mind less, her cleavage is really beautiful nevertheless. She also has such a big and prominent butt, it’s one of the appeal points of this figure. I really adore those wide hips and her juicy thighs. In between of this big ends hourglass Sonico keeps her envy provoking narrow waist, although she has a cute slight stomach. Her lower half is just so great and curvy, I love it. Her overall appearance makes her a desirable woman, who wouldn’t want to be her groom.

Final Words

The Sonico – 10th Anniversary Wedding version is a stunning Sonico figure. She has a beautiful appearance with a dress and face, that radiates a cheerful mood. The different face is a lovely extra, since it adds so much more to the figures concept. At 1/6 scale this figure is big, more than big enough to admire her amazingly curvy body, hips and butt are so sexy.  There is the option to display her without skirt to have a better view on these areas. All Together it makes her a great addition for any Sonico fan and supporter. If I would address an issue about the final figure, it would be the smaller gaps at the panties and midsection of the figure. Aside from that everything looks nice and clean.

.

Nevertheless after seeing pictures of the final figure, I decided that I need the Sonico – Clumsy Office Lady figure, too

This Sonico – Clumsy Office Lady version was manufactured by Native as part of their Character’s Selection, as 1/6 scaled figure. She was released in mid december of 2017. The illustrator for this scene with Sonico was Tsuji Santa,
who do take a lot of liberty with her proportions sometimes. This figure was the first work Yamaki Chihiro as sculptor.

The figure came in a totally oversized box, even when considering the number of parts inside, it’s a chunky box.

Let me list the parts for you, there are two file folders, a file folder container, a notebook, a pen, a wired telephone, a green teddy bear, a desk plate and of course the figure itself. This Sonico is figure is quite heavy and sturdy.

The figures head is decorated with the trademark headphones of this certain character. Sonico wears her usual hairstyle, but the sculptor added more detail to it, the well defined strands are pretty and the pastel pink is sweet.

Sonico’s cute head is nicely sculpted and the face is very pretty, her detailed eyes are not just glossy, they are shiny with a glass like texture. The cute open mouth shows her upper and lower front teeth line. Her appalled expression leaves several ways for interpretation, either she suddenly noticed how entangled she is in the telephone cord or she just doesn’t like the angry voice at the other side of the line.

The pose looks interesting and sexy, but I would not say its a natural situation, I mean, who would lie on the desk with a telephone cord wrapped around one leg while wearing a nervous expression on the face. Whatever the reason it is a nicely articulated pose and the figure is super detailed, especially when you pay attention to the hands for a second.

Before the release it wasn’t clear if this figure would be partially castoff able, but the figure includes an alternative vest part to display Sonico with exposed boobs, the skirt won’t come off and so we can’t admire her beautiful butt without a layer of cloth. This figure looks best fully dressed, the alternative option, while not really necessary is good to have.

In a normal situation Sonico’s office dress would actually look cute and appealing, the short sleeved white blouse and pink colored vest, together with the ribbon around the collar look really cute. The clothes for the lower body have a more seductive character, for example the black pencil skirt that tightly stretches around her well endowed hips.

Also these partially see through thigh highs with a darker rim are wonderfully made and super sexy. At her feet she is wearing rather neutral black high heels. Sonico would nearly pass as diligent office lady if her clothes weren’t really tight and her body sexy dynamite. She has a shapely womanly appearance, those button bursting voluptuous boobs and really wide hips, I like the narrow waist a lot and all together the proportions create a stunning hourglass shape.

Her buxom thighs are quite emphasized in this pose, the soft looking, cone shaped thighs are a real eye catcher.

In the alternative display option Sonico’s boobs have popped out of her blouse from the center with the upper and lower buttons still closed. Her boobs look nice and have pretty, pale pink nipples. The way the phone cord is wrapped around and between her legs is quite naughty befitting for a Native figure and getting the cable(s) in place was no easy task, either (⊙.☉)7.

Final Words

While I wasn’t really convinced by this Sonico figure at first, after I have taken a closer look, I would claim that she is among the best ones, first she is a big 1/6 scale figure, secondly she has a beautiful face and hair, thirdly she wears a cute office outfit wrapped around an amazingly sexy body and those thighs . Additionally to this the figure includes lots of convincing office paraphernalia. It’s an elaborately designed figure with an interesting pose and great quality.   

I’ve recently received a new Super Sonico figure, the nuresuke satsueikai version from Dragon Toy. 

nuresuke satsueikai (濡れ透け撮影会) means something like “photosession with wet clothes” Dragon Toy is popular for their generally sexy figures, that don’t hide much. It’s their first Sonico figure and the sculptor D zou decided to portray her in a more subtle sexy way. Sonico wears a school uniform like outfit and stands there in a flustered pose.

This figure of Sonico is scaled 1/6 and with 26,5 cm she is quite big, part of the figure is an exchangeable bust part and a cute pink shower head which should be attached to the base. She was released in the middle of march 2017.

Don’t ask me why Sonico is holding a showerhead in her hand, probably a failed photosession, I’ve adapted the idea, so that Sonico would make an advertising campaign for a shampoo brand. Therefore I modded an empty shampoo bottle.

Sonico had a little mishap with the shower and her clothes got partially wet. the wet look turned out convincing with a darker tone of color at the drenched areas, also her blouse turned transparent and that reveals her cute pattern bra.

I really like this Sonico adaption of sculptor D zou, he portrayed her as the attractive curvy girl we all know with beautiful big breast, the size is nicely chosen, not as gigantic, as a few other Sonico figures would show these days.

Super Sonico wears an adorable expression with eyes looking to the sides, she is apparently quite embarrassed about her mishap and the result of it. Her cute mouth is mainly hidden by her hand, but the creative and unusual pose is no bad thing at all, thanks to the hand the bashful atmosphere is conveyed in an even more convincing way.

As to be expected of a bigger, high quality figure in 1/6 scale, hair, head and face turned out very detailed and clean, the headphones are nicely made, too. The figures hair looks pretty, fluffy and is painted in a lovely shade of pastel pink.

The uniform outfit is cute and appealing, Sonico actually should be in college by now. Compared to most other figures of her, that show her in cute, colorful and always rather revealing outfits, the toned down colors create an unique look.

Shortly before release I worried a little, if I would really approve of her subtle colored outfit. In person though, it suits Sonico nicely, the outfit gives her a slightly adult feel. The fluffy jacket with cute black buttons, shows detailed folds and has a good, realistic appearance. Underneath she wears this cute blouse in a tone of pale pastel pink, this piece of PVC was made rather thin, the differences in thickness of the clothes create the illusion of different fabrics. The pleated olive green skirt looks good, although at first the dark color feels a bit unusual on Sonico, at least the striped necktie breaks the clouded color palette a little.

What I also like about this figure are the adorable detailed fingers, sooo cute!!! Sonico is holding a pink shower head in her petite hand, it’s very cute and detailed, the hose of the shower head is attached to the base.

This Sonico from Dragon Toy is surprisingly dressed, but a few small castoff options were implemented. Haha on her figures Sonico appears to be more daring than with her gravure idol job, in official illustrations she never shows her boobs exposed, but nearly all of her figures have a cast off option, also this one. The optional breast part shows Sonico without bra and the shirt pushed to the sides, she has beautiful and nicely sculpted boobs with small pink nipples.

It should be no surprise that the skirt can also be taken off, to reveal Sonico’s cute pink panties. At the back they are somewhat off center. Ahem, without skirt one can examine and admire her pretty backside and womanly thighs   .

Final Words

The Super Sonico ~ nuresuke satsueikai version is an interesting and visually appealing figure, she is big and creates a nice atmosphere, her pose, outfit and expression are nicely combined. There have been made many nice Super Sonico figures, I bought quite a number of them, the Dragon Toy figure of Sonico was a good purchase, she can be considered as fully dressed, but still has a sexy direction and cute expression. She is nicely made with a lot of details on her outfit and body. Overall it’s a very pretty figure of the Super Sonico character with less exaggerative proportions.

Sometimes as figures collector it happens , that you will see a figure, you know you would actually like, but there might be reasons that prevent you from preodering. It’s not the first time I got my hands on a figure that was already released a few years later. The recent late purchase happened with this Super Sonico – Rock ‘n’ Roll Valentine version which was released in August 2014. Last year, I finallly had the right mindset to get this lovely figure ♡.

The figure was a colaboration of Wing and Sentinel. The sculptor Busujima Takamaki turned an official illustration by Tsuji Santa into a truly wonderful figure. Super Sonico – Rock ‘n’ Roll Valentine is a 1/6 scaled figure, with a height of 25 cm she has a good size and presence.

Super Sonico the easily flustered gravure Idol is very good for all kinds of merchandise, especially figures. After many Sonico figures have been made, we learned that the cute and buxom character can be portrayed as embarassed, flustered but also happy figure.

Wing and Sentinel decided to make their Rock ‘n’ Roll Valentine version happy and cheerful.

The figure has alternative face plates, there is a winking face and a face with both eyes opened, both are equally cute and appealing. The face shows beautifully painted eyes and blush. The opened mouth has a cute shape and upper frontal teeth, it’s a lovely face overall.

On her head Sonico wears her trademark headphones painted in a shiny metallic color, below is her beautiful and smooth, pastel pink hair, I always love her fluffy hairstyle, the strands in general are very elaborate, but also at the back they show a very detailed and dynamic flow.

Sonico wears a cute heavenly blue bikini with big polka dots. Her bikini is sculpted in a detailed way to have a stretched look at the corners of her top. The bottom part is very tight and digs into her skin. The top is made to be castoffable, arms and head come off to make the process easier, blue ribbons hide the detaching points. Sonico can hold a guitar, that is supposed to look like it is made of brown and white chocolate and already started melting.

As special feature the package also has differently sized adhesive and re usable chocolate splatter stickers, it’s a funny gimmick. You can decorate the figure like a little piglet ;D

Sonico has a nicely developed buxom body, the cuddly appearance is really sweet in this figure adaption, this cute little belly is quite charming. She also has nicely shaped and ample boobs, in just the right size for Sonico, some other figures of her don’t care about the official sizes and portray her with more than she should have. This Sonico figure here shows her with marvelous wide hips, another really prominent part are her her meaty and very womanly thighs, it looks so great!

Final Words

Wing and Sentinel created a without much exaggeration, a fantastic and also creative adaption of Super Sonico, the figure delivers everything I like about the girl, she looks extremely cute and cheerful. Since this is not my first Sonico the bar for another one was already quite high, what speaks for this figure is the great portrayal of Sonico’s attractively plump body. The face shows her positive, strong cheerfulness accentuated by a contagiously bright smile. I’m delighted that I added another very appealing Sonico to my figure collection.

First a Merry Christmas, everyone! We already took a look at the beach qualities of this figure in a recent review, as promised, I did another set for ALTER’s Super Sonico – Santa Swimsuit version figure the with focus on this figures christmas appearance in a fitting scenario.

I actually didn’t plan this shooting as a scene, but it looks little story in the first few pictures. Starting with her backside is but works better to start this as a little story as introduction.
Well, she also has a is tasteful backside ^^

Shortly before Christmas Eve, Sonico remodeled the room and is now waiting ardent for her chosen one to arrive. A few minutes later, as Sonico was lost in thought the door opens.

It’s Chosen one san, finding Sonico in a cute and also sexy christmas related outfit kneeling on the cozy floor, a bunch of presents and a small christmas tree placed all around the room.

This Super Sonico is scaled 1/7 with a height of 13 cm, she was made by two experienced sculptors, Hide and Makio Munetoshi who combined their excellent skills to create this figures sculpt. After a few delays the figure was finally released in early September 2014.

The figure convinces with a cute, slightly flirty expression, the kind smile suits her very well.
The majority of manufacturers so far have preferred to portray her with worried expressions, which partially suits her perfectly, but more happy Sonico’s show up, which is welcome.

I’ve already said most things in the previous review, to sum it up, I am really convinced by ALTER‘s first Super Sonico. She has everything a Sonico needs, an incredibly adorable face and an attractive feminine and curvy body with good sense of putting bodyfat in the right areas

The ALTER company, which was before known as a little demure, slowly increases their number of attractive, shapely figures. ALTER known as top tier manufacturer and always especially nicely, sculpted figures did a great job with these feminine exposed curves of Sonico and previously Asuka, I’m not talking about the one from Evangelion ^^.

The cute figure comes with exchangeable heads, the hood aside they are similar I would dare to say. It’s a nice feature that allows to have Sonico around in summer and winter, although it’s not like anyone is going to blame you for not changing her appearance according to the season.

Without the hood I like her a lot in the beach setup with bare shoulders and collarbones.
The hood gives Sonico a more romantic look, the oval shaped hood is surrounding her head and headphones, the head has a shorter part attached to it, which covers her shoulders.

The red part is imitating thick fur, looks a bit like slaughted sea lion to me XD Well, the texture is short fibered and a little rough, but that is the desired effect. The white hoodie border in comparison looks very soft and fluffy. Around her collar, a long black ribbon is hanging around Sonico’s body, what a nice present she would be. The attached thing gives Sonico a festive feeling on top her cute and shapely appearance, the bell is really pretty on her again.

On summary ALTER’s Super Sonico – Santa Swimsuit version is lovely and that counts for both of her display options, be it christmas or the beach, she will rock both for sure.

One of the few exceptions where a Sonico figure has no cast off option, I don’t really miss this feature here, the skin revealing areas are nice enough and it gives her sonething innocent.

I hope you enjoyed the pictures of the christmas mode of ALTER’s Sonico.

My best wishes for you wherever you celebrate christmas, with your beloved ones or alone.

Review time lady’s and gentlemen. After many months without any Super Sonico figures, in autumm several new Sonico have been released, so it’s time to go back to my beloved 2D girl.

Some time ago ALTER surprised everyone as they announced to produce a Sonico figure.

Sonico stands for being a sexy girl and sexy wasn’t the category many of ALTER’s previous figures would fit in. Even though they started to add more fanservice like things to their line up, like Senran Kagura’s Asuka. This Sonico is based on one of Tsuji Santa’s older illustrations, that showed Sonico dressed in bikini with a bell on her bikini top and a red Santa Clause hood.

When reading it’s probably a odd sounding combination, but this figure looks really good.
A second head is included to give you the option to have Sonico more fitting for the beach.

In this review I will focus on the suited for the beach attire only. I have something bigger planned for the figures christmas option, but preparations aren’t completed yet.

Sonico is scaled 1/7 with a height of 13 cm, she was made by two experienced sculptors, Hide and Makio Munetoshi who combined their excellent skills to create this beautiful  figure.
After a few delays, some even speculated that ALTER wouldn’t manage to release the Super Sonico figure before December, but the figure was released in early September 2014.

Orchid Seed is in my opinion the best manufacturer of Sonico based figures, but I really approve of ALTER’s first adaption of the Super Sonico character, she’s a simply beautiful figure.

Sonico has been mainly portrayed as flustered or scared curvy girl dressed in skimpy and arousing clothes. Taito and FuRyu as Prize Figure manufacturers started to make figures of a more cheerful Super Sonico. Previously Sonico was only known as curvy mascot, since the Sonicomi game some years ago and the Soniani anime the girl received a personality.

ALTER presents Super Sonico in a relaxed fashion, she feels good and enjoys being around the person she likes. It’s quite impressive how cute this Sonico actually is, starting from her beautiful eyes, to the prominent blush. Sonico also fires a lovely, gentle smile that can pierce ones heart.

Her shoulder long hair is simply said perfect, it looks fluffy, smooth and is carefully crafted, also the applied color gradient give it a great look. The long chunk of pink strands over her nose is quite adorable. The tilted  head and the fingers placed on one bikini strap give her a flirty look.

Sonico never been thin as a stick and this is also part of her popularity since the beginning and there is definetely a fanbase for so called healthy, or girls with more developed curves. This figure here also has slightly accentuated muscles. Her her thighs are meaty and look strong.

The bust size of Sonico varies quite a bit, that applies to figures and also illustrations. Sure also ALTER’s Sonico has big boobs, but the presentation turns out more modest compared to other figures of her. Maybe because she is for once wearing a bikini that is compatible with her sizes.

The compact pose works very well for this kind of figure, next to the beautiful smooth body, her thighs do stand out, I really love the curve when you look from the side, as well as her wide hips. From the back Sonico has a superb big butt, it’s nice that her butt is slightly lifted up in this pose.

Sonico is wearing a nice, white triangle bikini, the red mini ribbons on top and slip are really cute details, fine wrinkles give the bikini a realistic look. From the top’s middle connector hangs a small golden bell decorated with a ribbon and leafs ready for christmas. At the outside of the bikini there are very detailed laces applied, that slightly remind oneself of holiday tablecloth.

This figure of Super Sonico has one of the prettiest cleavages in the whole figure realm to date, the shapely sculpting is top notch. There is some modest underboob fanservice. A cast off option isn’t part of this figure, but I won’t complain about that, since I’m more than happy to have a relaxed, relatively innocent looking, high quality figure of her for a change of things.

Final Words

Applause for ALTER and their wonderful adaption of the Super Sonico character. She has lovely hair, an adorable face and a shapely, nicely sculpted body. If you are looking for a high quality figure of Sonico that shows a different expression than being flustered here is your answer.

Taking pictures of her was seriously so much fun! cutting down to 34 images was quite difficult. As you can see, I focused on a tropical beach scenario an didn’t use her hood and base, the christmas version of this (review) will follow soon, so stay tuned.

I might review another new Sonico figure in between, though.

another review was written by Cerberus from Reflective Boundary

Somewhere on an empty road a Nissan 200 SX with two passengers onboard was driving away.
The man had a very pretty, healthy girl on the passengers seat, who throw a innocent smile in the drivers direction.

“I feel like my breast are swollen since yesterday, could you take a look”

“No, No they are perectly fine” he replied quickly in a flustered act, while refusing himself to take a look at the object of discussion.

“But when I push a little here one of them is bigger, see?” totally ignorant avout the appeal of her own body, the girl won’t stop pressing on her boobs creating all kinds of weird shapes inside her cleavage.

“Stoop! Im driving BAKA! GO and cover your boobs already!”

*nipslip* “Kyahhh!”

the front window instantly turned red….

this just happened in his dream!

Hello, this review will be a little different than usual, the figure is so special to me, that I felt like writing a little story additional the usual review routine. I’m not lying when I say that it was my most anticipated figure of 2013, she was announced around 1 Year ago and without further delay she was released in December.

Sonico PKG (Package) verson is based on an illustration by Tsuji Santa, which was printed on the manual of the Sonicomi – communication with Sonico PC Game. The figure was made by Orchid Seed, they already have a history with Sonico figures, in my opinion they made the best Sonico figures so far and this is no exception.  This figure was made by Ishiyama Satoshi, a talented sculptor, who already made made a large number of busty beauties for Orchid Seed.

Sonico PKG ver. is scaled 1/5 and has a height of  33 cm, I have no figure that is bigger than her.

 Hair & Face

Sonico has her usual hairstyle, shoulder long at the front, at the back it ends a bit above her butt. The strands in front rest on her chest without a gap. The hair is painted in a bright pink color with darker pink highlights. It is nicely sculpted with many single strands, aside from a few uneven spots you can only notice on very close inspection it is rather smooth. The seamline on top is hidden by her trademark, the silver headphones, these are very detailed and have a convincing metallic look.

What I really like about this certain Sonico is her different face expression, it’s not the usual happy or flustered expression, it’s somewhat neutral, but there is a kinda strong atmosphere it emits, like she’s lost in thought while taking a look at the surrounding or calmly walking along the beach. The face is sculpted very well with details like a cute nose and big expressive eyes, there is a faint blush on her cheeks with the slightly open mouth the whole face appears a little more realistic than other anime related figures.

 Outfit & Body

Sonico is obviously a buxom beauty with a really attractive body, she has a nice pair of big boobs, they are very well sculpted in a teardrop like shape, the slight sag gives them a feel of weight and a idea of gravity. The skimpy bikini top covers her chest tightly and there is a certain tension on the thin garters. The figure has a rather big round butt, her buttocks appear  beefy as if they were made of concrete and the bikini pants don’t really have a chance to cover her skin.

Sonico is popular for having a bit more meat around her bones, her broad hips are so damn hot. The figure is supported by her strong thighs compared to that, her belly is rather free of fat and her hip bones are still visible in this figure adaption, a deeper engraved bellybutton would have made the sculpting perfect for me. I think it’s an awesome sculptur nevertheless.

Sonico’s outfit is quite unique a bikini with star patterned stockings and boots.I really love the heavy boots, colored in petrol, it is a elaborate design and the white bootlaces look convincing.

The white bikini has nice shading effects and a detailed sculpting with wrinkles and stuff.

The figure ist castoffable, first you have to take off the head, then the ribbon in the middle at her back, after that you disconnect the straps. The bikini is flexible enough, don’t be scared to break it in the cast off process. It’s a good solution, the top has a tight fit and isn’t bulky at all.

As to be expected by a figure sculpted by Ishiyama Satoshi, Sonico has beautiful breasts the elevated areola area and detailed nipples give them the final touch, I like this angle.

7:00 Cameraman san takes a blurry look at his clock

“Oh I have to hurry, I must pick up Sonico at 7:45 and take her to the studio, we have a shooting” “Arghh! I’m short on time, breakfast or shower?” mumbled Cameraman san to himself while he was rubbing his eyes. He decided to take a shower “this guy is terribly energetic today I have no time for that now… get down” demanded Camera san as he was looking down his feet in a frustrated manner.

7:25 Cameraman san is fresh and fully dressed ready to leave the house any Second. He grabs his keys and starts the motor of his 200 SX, “it will be a sunny day”, he thought as he was driving further.

7:26 As fan of cheesy Jpop music her turned on his current favorite and started singing along “Hime,Hime, hime hime hime”

7:32 He arrives on Sonico’s appartment and checked his outer appearance “passed” he said in a sharp short breath. Sonico was already outside and noticed him, with a cheerful waving gesture she quickly approached the car, he inspeced her outfit from a distance, she was wearing a sand colored jacket over a dark blue dress with white polkadots, long enough to cover her knees.

7:37 Sonico takes a look through the opened sidewindow and made a cute salute pose torwards Cameraman san. He could barely suppress his stupid smile after being greeted from lovely girl like her, after he regained his cool, he said “jump in young lady”. Sonico nodded and took her seat. “Good morning” she said calmy. “Hi Sonico we will work together again this week, it’s always a pleasure” “Yeah” said the pink haired girl as her cheeks slowly turned red. “Today it is for the big shoe Company” she added in a fast spoken sentence. “speaking of that the outfit, that our client chose is a little eccentric, but  don’t worry you should look good in it anyway” he said in order to comfort the girl next to him.
“Hahaha” Sonico burst out in laughter, “it can’t be worse than the cow costume last time, you know Suzu made fun of me the whole week”, complained Sonico with a bitter smile.

7:44 Cameraman san and Sonico arrived near the studio’s location. “You don’t have to be nervous, I’m here for you.” he said as he was touching her shoulder. There was weird silence inside the car. “Don’t worry about Sonico, I’m stronger than it might appear” she said in a very gentlle voice” while she lowered her head, Sonico carefully held out her small hand into Cameraman sans direction and formed it into a fist, he understood the idea of the girl and calmly met Sonico’s fist with his. “Thank you” said the girl softly, with a bright smile.

“Let me see the outfit please” she demanded friendly but authoritative. “Sure” he hesitantly handed over the large bag, sweat was appearing at his forehead “they said you can keep the boots, if you like”, he added, as Sonico impatiently grabbed the suspicious container and opened it.

“WHAAAT!?” a loud voice from a pink haired demon like creature shook the car, “I will wear only this, they can’t be serious” “I’LL KILL YOU!”

Final Words

There are still some pictures left below, but it is really time to sum up my impression about this figure. Orchid Seed delivered an excellent figure of Sonico with top notch quality, I didn’t stumble upon any seam line at her body. The body sculpting is very smooth and detailed thank you Ishiyama Satoshi for making her such a stunning beauty. With her standing straight, you can enjoy all her buxom glory, it is a calm but at the same time expressive pose. The most important part of a figure is always the face and even here the Sonico PKG convinces with waving flags, the deep eyes, the nose and the mouth make her a really adorable Sonico.

How does this Sonico PKG figure rank in comparison with my other Sonico figures? I would say it’s slightly ahead of the nice Sonico – Bath Time figure from Native, her butt and boobs looks far better and she’s standing up, what I prefer. But she is a little behind the Sonico – Bondage version (black) this is still the best Sonico figure, her stylish outfit, the sex appeal, also the whole atmosphere she emits and many different cast off options make her my number one.

The enchanting Soniko, mascot from Nitro+ gaines more and more popularity these days, she also received an own artbook treatment recently. This Sonicomi Art Book was published by Softbank creative and the release date was in the middle of December 2011.

It was sold in two version, there was the Sonicomi Art Book Premium Box which included an extra towel and a CD that included a few bonus outfits for the Sonicomi game for around 5524 Yen and the normal version which came without any extras had a price of 2800 Yen. At first I somehow wasn’t that interested in getting the book, but in the end I tried to get one copy of it.
I was able to find one of the last copies at cdjapan, at that time I thought there was just one version of the book, but it turned out as a misunderstanding, so there were no extras for me

Anyway, it turned out as a very nice artbook, but first lets talk about the technical aspects, the book has a glossy cover and consist of 144 A4 pages. The illustrations are high quality prints.
With a size of 30 x 21.5 x 3.6 cm and a weight of 1014 gramm it’s one of the bigger artbooks.

The illustrations aren’t all of the ecchi kind, its balance between cute and sexy pictures, most of it are illustrations from Tsuji Santa, but there are also some render prints from the game engine.

Scanning the pictures takes less effort than do a photo of the pages, therefore I activated my badass scanner once more, to show you some of the nice illustrations of the Sonicomi Art Book.

Even without extras Im very satisfied with this artbook, the book as well as the prints have a very good quality, it’s first class Soniko merchandise of high valence. The illustrations vary from cute and innocent to quite ecchi ones, but there are no nude or hentai like illustrations included.

Unfortunately both versions of the artbook are already sold out, but I hope you liked this little artbook review. I already have another artbook of an french artist up my sleeve, Stay tuned ^^.
