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.
