Kanade Tachibana: Haregi Ver. (Angel Beats!)

Today’s Main Feature!

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’m going to be taking a look at the 1/8th scale…
Kanade Tachibana: Haregi Ver.!

From “Angel Beats!” comes a 1/8th scale figure of Kanade Tachibana wearing a traditional Japanese outfit known as a haregi! The figure was made with assistance of Na-Ga, the original character designer of the series, who drew an original illustration which the figure was based on.

The vivid red outfit is decorated with various embroidered flowers, while Kanade herself stands in a cute pose with a shy look on her face. Her large angel wings extending from her back as well as the long sleeve on the left make use of semi-translucent parts. Be sure to add the angelic Kanade to your collection!

Made with close supervision by the Na-Ga, the original character designer of Angel Beats, this figure is based on an original illustration that was drawn specially for the figure!

The huge angel wings on both sides have been sculpted with a heavenly appearance and with such incredible attention to detail!

▲The flow of her hair as it blows about is also lovely! (・∀・)!!

As I’m sure you could tell from the first photo, the details of her kimono are also simply stunning. The belt alone is absolutely beautiful, but the patterns on the lower part of the outfit are simply breathtaking! ヾ(o´∀`o)ノ

Also note the pattern on the left  which features light particles similar to the designs that were used in the series! Certain parts make use of translucent parts to really create a stunning appearance!

Plus just look at this adorable face!

She is such an angel!!

The somewhat embarrassed look and the slightly open mouth that she is trying to cover up with her hand! Those eyes that seem to stare right into your soul…!! You can’t help but want to jump to her side and protect her from the world!

The creases in her outfit as she grabs the long sleeve, as well as the gentle flow of the kimono towards her legs all capture the texture and flow of the fabric so beautifully! 

Take a nice close look at the details once she joins your collection!

1/8th Scale Tenshi

Good Smile Staff are so great – they never complain when I say ‘I’m gonna take a photo now!”, they just act a little hesistant 😛

Sorry, but I need someone to hold the boxes for me!
It’s all thanks to the rest of the staff that I can once again bring you another review! 😛

02

So without further ado, onto today’s review!

The 1/8th Scale Tenshi!

Tenshi is the angelic student council president in the afterlife, from the anime ‘Angel Beats!’. She is posed with her hands clasped together in front of her and a peaceful smile brimming over her face!

03

This is how she looks from the back!

You can see she is sculpted as if she has just descended from the sky, with the wind blowing her hair and skirt up!

I also personally recommend the back of her knees! They look so soft and gentle to the touch!

04

She really is such an Angel!

For those who don’t get it – ‘Tenshi’ actually means ‘Angel’ in Japanese. But seriously – that really is the smile of an angel! It’s just too cute!
05

Her thighs are also magnificent!

The petticoat beneath her skirt is also a nice touch…

And the ever so popular half-way-up socks!

They really help the calves stand out, don’t they. 😛

06

As I’m sure most of you know, Yurippe was made using 3DCG Data…

Of course Tenshi was made in the same way!
She was sculpted using data and then printed using a 3D printer!

All with help from our friends over at Sanjigen!

09

Her wings are also included!

You can’t have an angel with no wings! And what lovely big wings they are! There is a little hole on her back where the wings connect into, but it is hidden by her hair when the wings are not connected, so it shouldn’t be a problem for anyone.

How will you display her? With or without the wings!?

08

Here is a shot from above!

The front tips of her wings bend in a bit, which creates a wonderful effect.

Plus they are made from clear plastic for that nice transparent feeling!

The bottom is fully transparent and it gradually fades up to the solid white!
07

Displayed together with Yurippe!

This is how she looks with the other 1/8th scale Angel Beats! figure – already on sale! Displaying the two of them together really makes it feel like the series has come alive!

Anyways, that’s all for today!
I hope to see you all again tomorrow!  (・∀・)ノ゛

1/8th Scale Yuri

Spring! The season of cherry blossoms!

001

It’s finally started to warm up a bit here in Matsudo now! I actually got hit by a cold and fell behind on work a little…

By the way, isn’t the background above gorgeous?It was made by Tarou Shuu, a newbie here in the production team! It’s available at the Good Smile Cafe’s photo booth, so go make use of it if you have the time!

002

Anyway… today we’ll be taking a look at…
1/8th Scale Yuri!

She is the leader of the SSS group that is trying to rebel against god in the anime ‘Angel Beats’!

As I previously introduced on the blog back on the 7th of December

フィギュアメーカー・グッドスマイルカンパニー勤務 『ミカタンブログ -松戸駅から10マス進む-』

With the help of the 3D data provided by Sanjiken,
Yurippe is sculpted using 3DCG!

The picture above isn’t a photo – it’s the 3D data she is sculpted from! The world really is evolving!

However, the final touches and coloring are all done by Good Smile’s sculptors. Getting them to look over the final product is a sure way to check it keeps up to GSC standards!

003

This is how she looks from the back!

Her wavering hair and frilly skirt give the figure a nice natural feeling…
Plus those thighs are beautiful!!!  (*゚∀゚)=3

007

A cute face with an unwavering smile!

The smile suits Yuri so perfectly – you can really feel her determination coming through it!
 
006

Her adorable outfit is also very detailed!

The unique design and scarf around the breast area are definitely some of the highlights! You can also see the SSS crest on her left sleeve – with such fine detail you can even make out the writing on it!

009

She’s definitely cute from the front… but somehow I really like the way she looks from behind too! I think it might be those delicious thighs. ^^;

008

A clear stand with the Angel Beats! logo!

Some of you might think it’s a little bit too plain, but there is in fact an upside to the stand not being that spectacular…

Yurippe will be sold for just ¥5,800!
Lots of shops will probably have discounts and specials as well, so you might even get her for cheaper!

As a side not though, I don’t think clear stands like this are bad at all. Obviously I love the details on stands like those in the Bakemonogatari series, but these classic stands have a special charm to them as well… at least in my opinion.

She should be in stores as of tomorrow!

Deliveries to certain areas cannot be made due to the recent earthquake, but as soon as possible products will be sent out.

For ordering details or questions please check out our partner shops.

All of our future products may be delayed due to shipping problems, planned blackouts and other circumstances with the shipping companies, but we will strive to keep them all on the same schedule they are currently on. It’s hard to determine how things will turn out in the current circumstances, but we hope everyone will understand!
 
 
That’s all for today!
I hope to see you all again tomorrow!! (・∀・)ノ゛
