Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
I really don’t like bananas… but if you dry them or freeze them then I can still manage to eat them! Anyway, today I’ll be continuing on from yesterday’s Kagamine Rin: Tony Ver. with a look at…
| Following on from the previously released Hatsune Miku and Megurine Luka comes a 1/7th scale figure of Kagamine Len based on the illustration of him by popular illustrator Tony!The unique feeling of Tony’s illustrations has been faithfully preserved in figure form through gentle colors and translucent parts, all sculpted in intricate detail for fans to enjoy. Careful attention has been given to all aspects of the figure, including the unique appearance of her blond hair and the high-quality look of his shirt through a shiny pearl paint. Enjoy the energetic charm of this cool Kagamine Len in your collection! |
Len-kun!!!! (/ω＼)
The male side of the ‘powerful and charming’ Vocaloid twins – Kagamine Len has been sculpted in Tony illustration style!! He is posed with a huge smile on his face as he points out toward the audience… this is what I call an idol!!
Just like Rin, the figure really captures the feeling of ‘movement’ really nicely, with the creases in his outfit matching the movement and his body line so effectively! Personally I also love the way his neck tie is fluttering forward!
This is how he looks from the back!
This angle gives you a good look at the collar fluttering around his neck as well as his tied back hair!
Just like Rin, the detail on Len’s hair is really quite the sight!! ♡
Each and every strand is so carefully sculpted and filled with life!
The pearl paintwork and semi-transparent parts give that amazing light shine that leaves such a strong impression! ☆
His characteristic bangs are also beautifully balanced!
Another thing I just have to point out is the way the top of his shirt is a kind of folded outward! Take a look at the last two pictures and I think you’ll know what I mean! The little bit of extra bare skin that opens up because of that is quite important if you ask me!!!
Plus Len-kun also comes with his shoulder keyboard as an optional part!
Just look at those details!!
Each of the keys and buttons carefully sculpted and painted, and the way the black keys are raised makes it look like you could really press them in!! ♪
Just like Rin-chan, his hands also have nails painted to match his image color! ♡
△Made me want to compare hands! (My pinky fits almost perfectly in his hand!)
Let’s move our focus down to his legs! (●´ω｀●)
The back of his knees!!
I always love looking at the back of the knees on figures – but there is something different about it on male figures! There is a whole different charm to enjoy here – the curve that starts at the bottom of the knee and slowly bends… and the fact that you can just make out the muscles if you look quite close!!
Now let’s move back up to his face!
The bright, innocent smile of a young idol!!
Although just like Rin, Tony’s illustration does have a slightly more mature feel to it when compared to the original illustrations! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)
The figure’s base is made to look like piano keys! ♪
You can combine this with Rin-chan’s base…
It only makes sense that twin figures should be able to displayed together in style!! Although I also quite like posing them facing each other instead!!
△ “Let’s go, Len-kun!” I can just hear her in my head! ♪
Posing at different angles really gets my imagination running!
Tony’s illustrations were incredible to begin with, but the back that they were able to be so well preserved in the change over to figure form is really something! The sculptor of the figure was Chieri – and what an amazing job!! These two items really show the artisans that are Max Factory!!
Add the cool and cute Vocaloid to your collection! ♥︎
