Today’s main feature…!
Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
Today I’m going to be taking a look at the 1/7th scale…
Saber Bride!
| From the popular game ‘Fate/EXTRA CCC’ comes a 1/7th scale figure of Saber Bride – Saber wearing the ‘Bridal Gown of Restraint’. She is posed with Aestus Estus in hand, ready to confront her enemies in battle while still showing off her curvaceous figure.
The sculpt is filled with all sorts of highlights such as the resolute facial expression, the skirt fluttering in the wind around her and the tight wedding outfit that shows off her beautiful curves. The intricate details on the outfits accessories and paintwork also all come together to create a figure overflowing with Saber’s beauty for fans to enjoy in their collection. |
The empress adorned in her bridal gown!
The young female knight, dressed up in wedding attire as ‘Saber Bride’ has been transformed into an exquisite 1/7th scale figure! The contrast between the graceful white lace and the rough restrained appearance of the chains, locks, zips and belts makes for a kind of unbalanced look that has such a mystical charm about it!
Plus to top off the outfit we have this expression!!
Such is the beauty of a flower on the battlefield!
The unwavering will in her eyes together with the tightly closed mouth… the expression captures her confidence as a warrior but still also has an elegant, ladylike appeal to it that is such a pleasure to look at!
This is how she looks from the back!
Note Saber’s characteristic strand of hair that sticks out on the top of her head! Not to mention the large veil blowing out to the side! Another thing I love is that even though the outfit shows very little bare skin, you can still make out the shape of her legs and how soft they look thanks to the tight outfit…
It’s one of those figures that looks quite simple at first, but actually has an incredible amount to notice when you take a nice long look at it!
In her hands she holds Aestus Estus!
Not only is the size impressive, but it also looks sharp and heavy too!
The fact that the sword extends well past her base makes you really get a good feeling for how large the sword is!
The pose overall has low centre of gravity as she grips the sword down quite low, which gives a rather still appearance to the figure, and yet…
Between the intricate lace outfit and beautiful veil, and the long dress with burnt edges and various little accessories… the ‘movement’ of the outfit adds a much more dynamic sense to a pose that would normally be quite static!
As the wind blows across the outfit, Saber still stands firm and confident creating a mix of ‘moving’ and ‘still’ elements to the figure that really make the figure look incredible!
Plus the outfit also has very intricate creases all over! <○><○>
Look at her arms and shoulders!
You can even see crease lines on the palms of the gloves which goes to show just how tight the outfit is! As you might expect from an outfit named the ‘Bridal Gown of Restraint’. The tight feeling also continues to her bosom rather – and you can even see how soft they are by the way the arm rests at the one side of her bosom!!
Anyway, as this figure has the zip on the front done up there is not much bare skin showing… but the design of this outfit has a nice little secret on the back… which has been very faithfully preserved on the figure!! (/ω＼)
Oooooh…. (*Admiration)
I really don’t have any words for this, but I have the strangest feeling to want to give my appreciation! Thank you!! The sculptor behind this figure is none other than YUMA (SWANBOAT no SOUZA), the same sculptor behind the previously released Ceil Alencon! (σ・∀・)σ
Ciel Alencon
△ Released in February 2015
YUMA is amazing at differentiating between textures and also sculpting curvaceous bodies that I’m sure almost anyone loves to look at! But the smaller details are also outstanding – you really need to take a look at the smaller details to really appreciate the work that has gone into this figure! Just take a nice long look at these pictures…! ♡
△ No matter what angle I look from my eyes can’t stop wandering! (´□｀｡)
It’s one of those figures that really makes it seem that Saber is right there beside you! It really brings the Fate universe to your collection!
Plus the base is made in the image of the Fate/EXTRA material artbook cover! ★
△ The Fate/EXTRA CCC is also included in a fancy silver!
She is a must-have for any Saber fans, but on top of that she is a masterpiece of sculpting that any figure fans should be proud to add to their collection!
Be sure to add the beautiful and valiant bride to your collection!
