Luka Megurine - Max Factory

The sun wasn't out today but I took a couple of photos. I take more photos on the next sunny day! For now I'll just say that I can't see any real flaws with this figure and I love the hair!

In my first review I did say I was going to include pictures of the boxes. You can find a few here in the slide show.

Rita Mordio - Alter - Tales of Vesperia

She arrived last Friday from Mandarake. I decided to try out DHL postage this time rather than EMS and it seems as though DHL is the way to go. About a day faster then the usual EMS and postage turns out pretty cheap!

Overall she's an awesome figure! If you like the game or the character then don't hesitate to get this. The detail, the paint and everything is really well done. There's nothing I can really complain about with this figure. There's also something about the skin colour they chose for the face on this figure that also works nicely. The best way to describe it is that it's more 'soft' than my other figures. I was really impressed with how well her eyes stand out too. The awesome greeny/teal colour in them looks really nice. If you're looking for figures with a great base then you'll love this. Alter put a lot of work into making the base look like a stone floor from an ancient city. It comes with all the cracks and dirt showing up as you'd expect. It really fits with the overall feel of the game. In fact, the whole figure itself matches the feel of Rita from the game. It's as if she just sprung out of the screen.





As usual here's a slide show of her. If you haven't worked it out yet you can view the pictures in a larger format if you click on the slideshow. As it was a nice (albeit hot) sunny day today I decided to take the photos outside. They seem to have turned out a lot nicer than usual with the natural light. There's also some close ups on her so you can see all the detail.

I also had no idea that the Tales of Vesperia figures from Alter were accompanied by a little caricature figure of the person as well. Needless to say, this turned out to be an awesome surprise when I opened the box!
Her head swivels too!

Stay tuned for Megurine Luka Tony Ver. by Max Factory! She should arrive by Tuesday.

Asuka Lawson Loppi Ver.

Along with Asuka Pajama Baby, I also got the Asuka Loppi Ver. by Lawson/Kotobukiya! Gotta say that this is one awesome figure! There's just something so unique about her compared to the other figures I've seen.
I've got a bunch of pics of this. Some with flash most without. I probably should have just taken this pictures when there was more light. Anyway, enjoy!

If you get the chance, don't hesitate to buy her!

Asuka Pajama Baby!

Just got my Asuka Pajama Baby White Version last Friday!
 Here's a slide show for you all!



Pretty cute overall and I'm glad I got her. From the pictures I definitely prefer the white over the pink version as well. Great figure if you can get her cheap like me!

Stay tuned for Asuka Loppi!
