Saber Triumphant Excalibur 1/7 GoodSmile Company

Saber arrived yesterday! This is the rerelease of the 2010 figure Saber Triumphant Excalibur from Goodsmile Company preordered from www.amiami.com. Better photos coming soon. Still got to get around to taking more photos of Athrun too!
Overall it's arguably my best figure so far. It's only truly comparable in detail, pose etc to other Goodsmile Company figures such as Rin Tohsaka Unlimited Bladeworks and Saber Lily Distant Avalon. She comes with two swords. One which is transparent and has the blue glowing thing around it indicating that she may possibly be using her noble phantasm and the other sword is the same except it looks normal without thing power up stuff around it. The blue stuff looks like it can be removed from that sword but I haven't bothered to try yet. It feels a little strange looking at her. The face is easily visible on all my other figures but her arms cover up half of it and I keep trying to get a better view of it lol.
The base has some pretty awesome detail and design put into it and the Fate/Stay Night logo looks pretty awesome.
The paint job on this figure is very nice in general although there are some patches on the front blue section of her dress which i'm guessing isn't supposed to be there seeing as the rest of the dress hasn't anything like it. I'll have to look into that more. However, overall there's something about this figure, the colours and the paint in it which is very nice to look at. Perhaps I could describe it as soft/smooth? Anyway enjoy the photos, I'll get some nicer ones up soon! There's also all angles of the box if anyone wants to see.


UPDATE:
It seems from pictures of other peoples Saber that the paint on the front of her dress is intended to be that way.
