Nendoroid Juzumaru Tsunetsugu (Touken Ranbu -ONLINE-)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

The changes in temperature between the last few days here in Japan has been huge! We’re getting to that season where it is hard to wake up and get out of your nice warm bed in the morning!

Today I’m going to be taking a look at a product currently up for preorder…
Nendoroid Juzumaru Tsunetsugu!

From the popular browser and smartphone game “Touken Ranbu -ONLINE-” comes a Nendoroid of Juzumaru Tsunetsugu, one of the Five Great Swords! He comes with three face plates including a standard face, a combat face as well as a smiling expression based on the anniversary illustration from the game.

His sword can be displayed both sheathed or drawn and he comes a string of prayer beads and other parts allowing you to display him in various different situations. Be sure to add him to your collection!

“All worldly things are transitory. Everything is without self.”

The second of the Five Great Swords to join the Nendoroid series, Juzumaru Tsunetsugu!

⇒ PRODUCT DETAILS

The amount of detail that has been put into the gradient and sculpt of each of the beads as well as their glossy appearance is simply outstanding! ヽ(*´∀`)ノ

All of the Touken Ranbu Nendoroids have been very carefully sculpted to capture as much detail as possible in chibi size, but Juzumaru is possibly on a completely different level in terms of detail!

▲ The gradient of his hair is also beautiful!

The flow of hair has also been captured very nicely with the sculpt, and if we look behind the hair you can see the details of his outfit from the back, which is not something you normally get much opportunity to see on Juzumaru!

The creases on his outfit around the bends of his body have also been captured very nicely! The more you look the more little details you see!! ( ・ㅂ・)و ̑̑

▲You can see a little gap of bare skin between his cuffs and gloves!

Anyway, let’s move on and take a look at his different face plates! The first we have is the standard expression that I’ve included from the start, but he also comes with two different alternate options! (。・ω・)ノ゙

His second face plate is a combat expression!

This confident pose together with a powerful looking expression! You can just see his eyebrows peeking through his long hair which show he is putting much more force into this expression!

His sword is included both sheathed and drawn allowing for various different display options! – from scenes from the game to all original scenes! ♪

Plus as you may have noticed, he comes with two different strings of prayer beads! Simply select the one that better suits your pose! ε=(。・д・。)

Moving on to his third face plate…

A pure and gentle smiling face!

This expression is based on an illustration that was drawn for the game’s release celebrations! He even comes complete with the flower that was in the original illustration!

Even though his eyes are always closed, the different in the position of the eyes, the mouth and the eyebrows make for such a different impression!

In addition, just like all the previously released Touken Ranbu Nendoroids, he comes with a special round base… but as his hair is so big he also comes with a special extension part that can support him completely! (∩・∀・)∩


▲ You can pose him with just the small version if you like!

Add one of the cutest Five Great Swords to your collection!
Nendoroid Juzumaru Tsunetsugu!

He is currently up for preorder!!

Super Sonico: HOT LIMIT Ver. (T.M.Revolution / Super Sonico)

YO! SAY NATSU GA MUNE WO SHIGEKI SURU~♪

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’m going to be taking a look at the 1/7th Scale…
Super Sonico: HOT LIMIT Ver.! ♥

The first HOT LIMIT Anniversary Collaboration Figures to celebrate the 20th anniversary of T.M.Revolution’s debut is Super Sonico, who has just celebrated her 10th anniversary! The figure is based on an illustration by Tsuji Santa (Nitroplus) that was included in Takanori Nishikawa’s book distributed at Comic Market.

The figure has been sculpted in a dynamic pose as if in a scene from one of T.M.Revolution’s promotional videos, and the contrast between the texture of the outfit and her soft-looking skin has been captured with intricate detail! Be sure to add the sexy Super Sonico to your collection!

Included Bonus: T.M.Revolution x Super Sonico Illustration Post Card

T.M.Revolution x Super Sonico: The first in a series of HOT LIMIT figures!

A new set of figures to celebrate 20 years since T.M.Revolution’s debut!! The first of which is Super Sonico wearing the famous outfit worn by T.M.Revolution in their “HOT LIMIT” song!! Just like the song’s lyrics say, she is showing off whatever she can!!! Just take a look from a couple of different angles!

The contrast between her innocent smile and the sexy outfit is lovely!!

If you’ve never heard the “HOT LIMIT” song before, I suggest you listen along while reading this review to get in the mood! (っ’ω’)っ

The outfit is based on the outfit that T.M.Revolution’s Takanori Nishikawa wore in the music video above, but it has been slightly tuned to make for a more sexy look on Sonico’s body! This is how she looks from the back! ヽ(*´Д`*)ノ

▲ Her feet and back were never visible in the original illustration!

If you take a look from the side you can get the best feel for the impressive size of her bust that refuses to give in to gravity as well as the way the outfit squeezes down on her soft skin! ((´д`●))三((●´д`))

▲ You can just picture the body on the other side of the outfit!

The outfit has also been sculpted with careful attention to the creases and stretched areas which gives a good feel as to how tight the outfit is!

She looks amazing from all sorts of different angles! (/ω・\)

In addition, she also comes with a little helicopter, also based on the music video that I linked above! ★

If you look close you can see Pochaco is looking out!!

This is all of course included to faithfully capture the original illustration by Tsuji Santa (Nitroplus)! A post card of this illustration is also included with the product as a bonus!

A lot of the photos on today’s blog don’t include the helicopter, but it is included to display with or without Sonico!

On first glance I think most people tend to look straight at Sonico’s boobies, but I personally want to bring more attention to the area around her bottom! Look at those delicious hips and thighs!!<●><●>

▲ Just looking at it makes you want to touch her!! ▼

Another thing I want to touch on is the contrast between the glossy paintwork of the black outfit and the warm soft looking paintwork of her skin!! It captures the textures so effectively making for such a treat to the eyes! ♥

Add the first of the HOT LIMIT figures to your collection!
Super Sonico: HOT LIMIT Ver.

She is currently up for preorder!! ♥

Orders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP are open until the 9th November 2017 (Thu) at 12:00JST, so make sure you don’t miss out!

Nendoroid Sucy Manbavaran (Little Witch Academia)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

My favorite type of mushroom is the royal trumpet mushroom! I do like most types, although I once at some shimeji mushrooms raw which did put me off them a little bit…

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…
Nendoroid Sucy Manbavaran!

From the anime series “Little Witch Academia” comes a Nendoroid of the unidentified witch and Akko’s roommate, Sucy Manbavaran! She comes with three face plates including her standard languid expression, a scheming expression as well as an entranced expression for when she has a few too many shrooms.

Optional parts include her wand, two mushrooms as well as a flask and sprout parts for her to play some pranks on Akko! In addition, she also comes with the “The Sucy that Wants to Spit on the World” a bonus extra part! Be sure to display her together with the previously released Nendoroid Akko Kagari for all sorts of fun displays!

“I kind of had a hunch before, but Akko’s really is an idiot.”

The sarcastic witch with a rather sharp tongue, Sucy Manbavaran is joining the Nendoroid series! Her cute appearance wearing the Luna Nova Magical Academy has been faithfully captured in Nendoroid size! ☆

The long skirt creating little waves at her feet suit her so perfectly! The long skirt also allows her to stand without the need for a stand!! (・∀・)

Sucy is the second character from Little Witch Academia to join the Nendoroid series, following on from the previously released Nendoroid Akko! ♪

▲ Displayed with Nendoroid Atsuko Kagari! (Released September 2017)

Sucy comes with both a mushroom that can be connect to her stand as well as a mushroom to hold in her hand! (っ’ω’)っ))

In addition to the languid looking standard expression above, she also comes with an entranced expression which works great when she is displayed together with the mushrooms! ☆

▲She looks so happy in her mushroom world! ♡

Plus she comes with this rather unique part! ヽ(*´∀`)ノ

“The Sucy that Wants to Spit on the World”

Isn’t it just adorable?!

Those who have seen the series will remember this Sucy from episode 8 of the series, titled “Akko’s Adventure in Sucyworld”. She also looks just as cute from the back!

▲ The fluffy looking appearance is perfect!

Here she is displayed with Sucy herself! ♥

▲ You never expected this as an optional part, did you! (/ω\)

Plus she also still comes with one more rather fun part!

Sprout Parts!!

Plus just like in the series, you can even have the sprout growing out from Akko’s head in place of her back ponytail! This works great with Akko’s flustered expression and even better with this scheming face plate included with Sucy!!

In summary, here are all the included parts! 

  Mushroom that Fits on Nendoroid Stand
  Blue Amulet Mushroom to Hold
  Sprout Parts
  Flask
  Magic Rod

Together with Sucy herself, three face plates and the llama Sucy! ♪

▲ She will be fun to take pictures with together with real mushrooms! (o´ω`o)

Be sure to add the mischievous witch to your collection!
Nendoroid Sucy Manbavaran!

She’ll be up for preorder tomorrow!

Be sure to keep your eyes on the Good Smile Company website for more details! In addition, orders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP will also include a green mushroom part as a bonus!! ♡

Be sure to consider it when purchasing!! (●‘∀‘●)ノ”

▲ Brings out the Sucy atmosphere even more!

Plus, we also have the next Nendoroid in the works!

Nendoroid Tōru Amuro (Detective Conan)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

It’s starting to get a little chilly in the evenings now! Time to start thinking about clothes for winter! Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…

Nendoroid Tōru Amuro!

nendoroid-tooru-amuro-detective-conan

From the popular anime series “Detective Conan” comes a Nendoroid of mysterious Toru Amuro! He comes with three face plates including a fearless smile as his standard expression, a more serious expression for when he is faced with hostility as well as a much more cheerful smiling expression. He comes with an alternate upper body part for a more casual look as well as a plate with sandwiches and an apron part! Enjoy various sides of Amuro’s personality in Nendoroid size!

“Because I am a private eye. A detective.”

The Blu-ray and DVD of  Detective Conan: The Crimson Love Letter releases today, and this Nendoroid from the anime series of the mysterious Tooru Amuro will be up for preorder from tomorrow!

His dark skin and light hair, confident smile and various other details have all been faithfully converted into Nendoroid size!

nendoroid-tooru-amuro-detective-conan

▲ Even the fold line in his pants has been preserved on the Nendoroid! ♪

The outfit the Nendoroid is wearing is based on his outfit from the “Jet-Black Mystery Train” case! It gives me a very smart looking appearance!

nendoroid-tooru-amuro-detective-conan

The Nendoroid also includes a bolo tie at the request of the manga’s author, Gosho Aoyama!

Anyway, let’s move on to his different face plates! ε=(。・д・。)

nendoroid-tooru-amuro-detective-conan

His first and standard face plate is the one used in all the photos above, which has a bit of a mysterious look that makes it hard to tell what he is thinking! He also comes with two other alternate face plates!

The second is this serious face!

nendoroid-tooru-amuro-detective-conan

He suddenly looks a lot more stressed out compared to the expression above! The open mouth and sharp eyes make him look ready for whatever might come his way! (´□`。)

He also comes with interchangeable hand parts which can be used to pose him using his boxing-style moves for combat scenes! The serious expression works great for more hostile poses!

nendoroid-tooru-amuro-detective-conan

▲ He also comes with a bent leg part!

Last but not least…

nendoroid-tooru-amuro-detective-conan

He also comes with a friendly smiling face! ♪

Suddenly the hostility from above has melted away into a gentle smile!! Just looking at him makes me feel all warm and happy inside!

Plus as you can see, he also comes with a plate of sandwiches and an apron as optional parts to display him during his part-time job as a waiter at Ristorante Sundayrino!

nendoroid-tooru-amuro-detective-conan

Plus as you may have noticed, he also comes with a completely separate upper body part which is used to display him as a waiter, or simply a more casual look!

nendoroid-tooru-amuro-detective-conan

The arm and leg parts are designed to work with either of the upper body parts allowing for all sorts of different posing combinations! ★

You can easily recreate the outfit from the The Jet-Black Mystery Train, a simple turtleneck sweater look or with an apron to have him as a waiter!

Hatsune Miku: Harvest Moon Ver. (Character Vocal Series 01: Hatsune Miku)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I only found out there were various different types of mooncakes after I started working at GSC. I always thought they were a delicious sweet treat, completely unaware that there are others that have a much more savory approach! I’ll stick to the sweet kinds though!

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at the 1/8th scale…
Hatsune Miku: Harvest Moon Ver.!

From the “Character Vocal Series 01: Hatsune Miku” comes a 1/8th scale figure of Hatsune Miku wearing dressed up in outfit based on those seen at the Mid-Autumn Festival in China.

The translucent feeling from the original illustration by Chinese illustrator Rella has been captured as faithfully as possible, with a beautiful sculpt that captures her elegance. The paintwork is also a highlight of the figure, with the gentle colors of the design blending with the translucent parts to create an stunning appearance. Enjoy a moonlit light with the gentle smile of Harvest Moon Miku by your side!

“Won’t you admire the moon with me?”

This beautiful figure was on display at the recent CICF Expo event held in China, and now she is ready for preorders to open! The stunning version of Hatsune Miku based on an illustration by Rella has been transformed into a figure that captures the translucent, flowing feel of the illustration as faithfully as possible in figure form!!

The poster you can see above is based on the exact angle of the original illustration to show just how similar it is! I just had to show it off on the blog!! (∩・∀・)

But let’s move in with a closer look with the normal selection of photos!

While the figure is in a rather simple standing pose, there are still so many different things to see! First and foremost are they lovely twirls of her hair!!

If we take a look from the top you can get a good feel for the circular twirls that her hair makes as it dances downward!

The best thing about the twirls is that they are so gentle which match with the overall feel of the figure, while still providing a dynamic feeling to the figure!

The original illustration obviously was only ever in two dimensions, which made transforming this into three dimensions was not a simple task, but the artisans over in the production team have brought out a sculpt that looks beautiful no matter what angle you choose to look from! You really need to see the sculpt in person to really appreciate it!

Also note the details on the very top!

Can you see the little sprinkles of gold on her hair?

This silver dist is included to recreate the light of the moon as it shone on the top of her head on the original illustration! The ever so slight gold effect is to incorporate this golden light on the design of the figure as well!

▲ The original illustration that the figure is based on!

The long ribbon-like part of her outfit is made from transparent parts to capture the original look, but also have the golden dust for that shiny reflection! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)

▲ You can see it much better against a black background! ♪

All this and all I’ve really spoken about is her hair! There is still so much to enjoy about this figure! Just look at all the different layers of her outfit which have each been intricately detailed! ε=(。・д・。)

The frills at the very bottom of the dress are also individually sculpted in lovely detail!  ((´д`●))三((●´д`))

The pearl paintwork together with the sculpt that makes it look like it really is a soft fabric… it has such a mysterious yet eye-catching appearance!

Even though the figure isn’t painted with very flashy paintwork, there is something about it that just makes her so very charming! She just draws you in!! I don’t know how else to explain it!

Depending on the angle you choose to look from, the expression can change between being rather cheerful looking to having a much more wistful look!

Be sure to add her to your collection and find the angle that you like best!

Enjoy a night of moon watching with this 1/8th scale Miku!
Hatsune Miku: Harvest Moon Ver.!

She will be up for preorder from tomorrow, which is the harvest moon!!

Be sure to keep your eyes on the Good Smile Company Website for more details!

Nendoroid Asuna: Ordinal Scale Ver. & Yui (Sword Art Online The Movie: Ordinal Scale)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I drank some transparent tea the other day and was somewhat surprised at how tea-like it tasted. The transparent drinks that are coming out recently really mess with one’s mind!

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…

Nendoroid Asuna: Ordinal Scale Ver. & Yui!

From “Sword Art Online The Movie: Ordinal Scale” comes a Nendoroid of the main heroine, Asuna, based on his new outfit from the movie! She comes with both a standard face and a shouting face for combat poses. The AR-type information terminal “Augma” that plays an important role in the movie is included, as well as her favorite sword allowing for all sorts of poses from the series.

In addition, she also comes with a smiling face with a slight blush, a small figure of Yui as well as the engagement ring that Kirito gave her allowing for various Nendoroid poses that show the love and bonds between the characters of the movie!

“Ordinal Scale, Activate!”

From the anime movie with its Blu-ray & DVD going on sale today, “Sword Art Online The Movie: Ordinal Scale” comes a Nendoroid of Asuna, the rapier user also known by her nickname, the “Flash”! The unique design of her outfit from the movie has been converted into Nendoroid size with careful attention to detail on both the sculpt and paintwork! ♪

Her hairstyle with a ring of braids has also been faithfully preserved!

The little ponytail section at the back is attached with a joint for slightly different posing options!

Plus, she also comes with a little friend!!

The character that looks up to Asuna and Kirito as parents, Yui is included with Asuna’s Nendoroid!! (っ’ω’)っ))

She has been made as a really tiny figure to better match the size of the Nendoroids, but even so the detail on her outfit with it’s ribbons and even the flower in her hair have all been beautifully sculpted and painted! But let’s get back to Asuna!

She can also be displayed with her rapier drawn, ready for a fight! You can use this together with the included combat expression to display her ready for combat, showing off her speed with the weapon!

While there is a lot of power behind the expression, I also think the way her teeth are sticking out at the top is so very cute!!

▲ She also comes with bent leg parts for a more dynamic pose! ☆

Plus she also comes with a third face plate…

A blushing smile which is perfect to display with her showing off the engagement ring that she got from Kirito! ♥

If you look close you can see the ring on her ring finger!! I wish them many happy years ahead!! (/ω\)

As a side note, Nendoroid Kirito: Ordinal Scale Ver. is available for preorder from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP until tomorrow at 12:00JST, so don’t miss out! ☆

BLOG REVIEW

A quick note that while this product is similar to the Asuna included with the Nendoroid Kirito & Asuna: O.S Ver. set, the following details are different!

◆ The face plates are different.
◆ Additional parts are included (Yui / Engagement Ring / Bent Leg)
◆ More interchangeable arm parts are included
◆ The base is a standard Nendoroid base.

*The hair and outfit are the same sculpt.

 

Be sure to add both Asuna and Yui to your Nendoroid family!
Nendoroid Asuna: Ordinal Scale Ver. & Yui!

She will be up for preorder from tomorrow! ★

Nendoroid Murakumo (Kantai Collection -KanColle-)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

We’re only just getting to the end of Summer and my hay fever is already starting to act up… it hasn’t even got that cold yet!

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…
Nendoroid Murakumo!

From the popular browser game “Kantai Collection -KanColle-” comes a Nendoroid of the fifth Fubuki-class destroyer, Murakumo! She comes with three face plates including a standard face, a half-damaged expression as well as a smiling face.

Her unique ship parts have been captured using translucent parts to bring out the feel of the material, and the arm has a wide range of articulation allowing it to be moved in all different directions. The standard turret firing effects as well as torpedo effects are both included allowing for various combat scenes as well!

In addition, she also comes with a scarf, glove and chocolates to display her based on her Valentines day illustration! Enjoy various different sides of her character in your collection!

“So, you’re the commander? I hope you’re up to the job.”

The fifth special class destroyer, Murakumo, is joining the Nendoroid series! Her cute expression with an open mouth, the long red tie with a sailor uniform, rabbit ear-like ship parts and the long arms with turrets attached have all been faithfully converted into Nendoroid size!

The back of her long hair is also fitted with an additional set of joints (areas circled in red) that make sure that her hair does not get in the way when posing the arms, while also allows for slightly more dynamic nuances!

The arms and turrets also move in all sorts of different ways! (っ’ω’)っ

They can all be moved to the once side as a kind of shield…

▲ Matches with her aloof half-damaged face plate! ☆

Or instead spread out far on both sides…

Fools who get my in way… will sink!

You can just imagine her cute voice when you pose her in a more battle ready pose like those above! Although the expression above is based on her half-damaged expression it also has quite a steadfast look to it that can also be used as a confident look for combat scenes! (。・ω・)ノ゙

She also comes with turret firing and torpedo firing effect parts which bring out the heat of battle even more!

For her third face plate, we have a cute smiling expression!

While they both have a slight blush, the contrast between the half-damaged expression and this cute smile is such a lovely sight!!

Plus as I’m sure you’ve noticed, she also comes with a scarfgloves and a box of chocolates to recreate her Valentine’s look! ♡

▲ The cute little balls of pink at the ends of her scarf are so cute! (*´ェ`*)

The Valentine’s outfit can also be used with the half-damaged expression to create a perfectly tsundere scene!

Simply mix and match the parts until you find the Murakumo you like best! ♪

Be sure to add the cool and confident lone wolf to your collection!
Nendoroid Murakumo!

She will be up for preorder tomorrow, the 27th September 2017 which is also the anniversary of the ship’s launch!★

Preorders from the link above will include a ‘Nendoroid Murakumo’ Special Box Sleeve & Special Nendoroid Base & Clear Ocean Display Sheet!

▲ The base will be approx. 8cm x 8cm in size. The clear sheet is A4 in size!

We also have many more KanColle figures in the works, so stay tuned!!

Anastasia: Story of Revolving Stars Ver. (THE IDOLM@STER CINDERELLA GIRLS)

Hello everyone! Chan-shuu from GSC’s planning team here!

Today I’m going to be taking a look at this scale figure from THE IDOLM@STER CINDERELLA GIRLS…
Anastasia: Story of Revolving Stars Ver.!

From the popular idol production game “THE IDOLM@STER CINDERELLA GIRLS” comes a 1/8th scale figure of Anastasia!

The figure’s outfit is based on the “Story of Revolving Stars” outfit for a inspiring yet somewhat wistful appearance as she stands on stage. The various chains and belts that decorate the outfit have been carefully detailed, creating an intricate figure filled with highlights – as if the illustration jumped up as a 3D figure for fans to enjoy! Be sure to add her to your collection!

I can see it… the blue nebula…
A never-ending  sea of stars that fills the sky

The idol with a Russian father and Japanese mother who mixes Russian into her sentences has been transformed into a beautiful 1/8th scale figure!! Her gorgeous blue, gold and white outfit has also been captured in lovely detail!

▼ This is how she looks from the front!

▲ A gentle expression with confidence in her eyes!

Her long eyelashes and turquoise eyes have been captured beautifully, and the comfortable looking pose with her hand extended create a lovely flow to her outfit that makes one think of the deep blue sea! The cute open mouth is also a rather unique and very cute point! (*´ω`*)

Also note the slight blue tints to the sides of her hair which are included to completely recreate the original illustration in figure form!

▼ By the way…

▲A part of her hair accessory makes use of translucent parts!

The pearl paintwork one one part, a lovely gradient on the feathers as well as translucent parts which all comes together to look amazing!!

▼ Just look at those fingertips! (〃∇〃)

​​​​​​​

Each and every one of the fingers have been sculpted to look so very charming! The white gloves also have a slight blue shadow to them to give them more depth that makes the hand look so realistic! The unique accessory on her arm is also lovely and intricate!

Another thing I love is the area of her arm you can see underneath the sleeve! It gives you a nice feeling of depth!

▼ Her custom designed microphone!

​​​​​​​

▲The coloring and bottom part show it must be custom made!

This hand also has such lovely sculpted fingers! Also note the clasp that holds the gloves close as well as the tiny little hole that shows an extra little bit of skin!! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

▼ So many layers to her outfit! ☆

​​​​​​​

▲ According to Anya the outfit is a Japanese designer’s take on a classic Russian ceremonial dress!

An outfit with an ancient and honorable origin, that really suits Anya’s character perfectly! The pose also has a very dynamic feeling which makes the outfit flow around her really beautifully!

▼прекрасный… (*´ω`*)

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

▼The white skirt and azure lace are stunning! (/_☆)/

The skirt has a matte finish, while the socks below have a glossy look for a nice contrast! The top of the socks are also designed with belts and you can see they are squeezing her thighs quite tightly!

▼ This is how she looks from the back!

​​​​​​​

▲ Even from the back the flow of her pose looks lovely!

▼ Also note the detail of the ribbon on her waist!

​​​​​​​

▲ The inner area has a dark look like the night sky, while the edge is headed more to a sky blue! ☆

The end of the ribbon also has the same accessory that was at the end of the microphone! The flow of the ribbon also adds to the dynamic appearance I mentioned before!

​​​​​​​

▼ Look at these stylish boots! 

▲The shiniest appearance of all the parts of her outfit!

The difference in gloss helps to differentiate the different textures on the figure while also giving them a very chic appearance while not being too obtrusive!

▼An angle based on the illustration it is based on!

​​​​​​​

The figure faithfully captures all the details of the original illustration while also ensuring that no matter what angle you look from she still looks amazing!

Anastasia: Story of Revolving Stars Ver.

Will be up for preorder from tomorrow!
