Glad I didn't jump to preorder the first design because I feel this one is more true to the character. While the tail has some quality control issues, the amazing face sculpt & cutely painted hands make up for it. If you love Toradora I really think this is the Taiga you need.... but I might still be picking up the other one some day. (FREEing is a scary company, I need help 🥲🙏).
