Very well detailed Ais Wallenstein for the price!

Permalink

Honestly, I wasn't sure what the quality would be like for this one. It was a great price and it was more of an action pose than some of the other figures for her, which I wanted. When I got her, the paint quality and detail of the model was fantastic. On top of that, the base wasn't a generic base, but a really cool one. All-in-all, this figure is really top quality for the price and every time I look at it, I think Ais Wallenstein is ready to kick some butt. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a figure of her!

Amazing quality sculpt, details and overall figure of Choco-sen

Permalink

I'll be honest, I'm not a huge fan of Choco-sen, but when I saw this figure, I knew I had to get it. It's such a creative, thoughtful take on Choco-sen. She's an amazing cook and you get that with the maid outfit and food, which looks fantastic. The little details like the hearts on the plate base as if it's a jus makes it seem like she's being served to you, who then serves you one of her great dishes. Also really love the big heart and fan mascots too. This is the kind of level of detail I want to see in all the figures I buy. Very personalized to the character and well thought out. One of the best Hololive figures I own.

Best Kagome figure out there

Permalink

I love everything about this figure. You've got Kagome in an action pose, in her miko outfit, and even better the base is well decorated with bamboo and plants. It's really cool. The paint job is spot on as well and high quality. If you are a fan of Inuyasha and were looking for a great Kagome figure, this one is it.

Good pose, dislike the separation line being so obvious for the alternate parts

Permalink

It's a good, but simple pose for 2B. Soon after I ordered it, more interesting variations came out. I'll also say she's definitely taller than most figures I usually get. I am just realizing now that the scale isn't written for this figure, but I think it's a 1/6th vs a 1/7th. I kind of hate 1/6th sized figures because they take up too much precious display case space. I think there are better versions of her out there, but if you like the pose and don't mind the separation line, it's solid.

Best figure of Orihime I've seen

Permalink

Finally, we have "action Hime"! Really love how they made her shun shun rikka look like they are being deployed. It's her latest outfit from this part of the series, which is relatively simple, but still looks great. If you are a Bleach fan and want an Orihime figure, I think this is the one to get.

Amazing quality, a little scary to put together!

This is easily the best Asuna figure I've ever seen. From the quality of the paint, to the quality of the wings (they have a prismatic shimmer/paint to them) and the overall sculpt/pose, everything is top tier. The only thing that was rough was trying to put in the main support into her back and her right wing. I almost gave up on the main support because I was really nervous pushing aside the hair to get it to work. It's also really hard to find parts of the figure to support pushing in the support. The right wing BARELY fits between the hair to get to it's spot. Lots of wiggling! That being said, absolutely love this figure. I really hope we get a Leafa/Sinon from this same ...Read moreClose

Really awesome figure, not sure about long-term stability

Permalink

This is definitely one of the best Milim figures out there if you're looking for "bad ass" Milim. Really can't complain about the paint job or aesthetics or quality of the figure at all. I will say that I'm not so sure about how this figures stay afloat. The large pink cross that her foot attaches to (metal peg for foot attachment) is attached to the base sideways with a large plastic piece. When I think of the physics of this relatively heavy figure on a relatively heavy piece of resin, I just wonder how long that plastic part will hold up before warping or breaking. I wish they had used a large metal peg instead for that resin piece. While her energy ball seems qui...Read moreClose

Some nice details and cool LED gimmick, but the paint job could be better

Permalink

I like a lot of the details around the mechanical looking parts of Aigis, but the paint job on the hair leaves much to be desired. Basically the bottom part of the hair below the hairband is blond and the part above is a dirty blond. I guess they couldn't be bothered to properly shade her hair. I get that blond hair is challenging to paint, but this felt lazy. It's kind of a pricey fig for that level of laziness. Also, the battery is a bit of an oddball type, so you have to go hunting a bit for it. The base isn't all that exciting, but I guess it's got something going for it vs a plain base!

Beautifully painted and detailed

Permalink

The paint used on this figure is really high quality. The whites are a pearlescent white and look amazing. The shading of the hair is spot on, the golden shawl thing is well detailed and nice. The little gem on it looks great too. There are even these 3 little vials in her belt that I never noticed before, but they look like real glass vials. The gold detailing on her red belt is really nice too. My only complaint would be the hanging gems on the deluxe prop. I was hoping they would be clear or nicer than they actually are. Opaque isn't quite as nice aesthetically. It still adds some nice flair to the figure and I'm glad I got it.

This comes in a box of the non-deluxe figu...

One of the all time great anime protags coming to you in a fantastic package

Permalink

This figure is fantastic. It has the effects showing they are doing alchemy and it has both brothers working together as they do in the series. The paint job and detailing is absolutely fantastic. Ed has a chain for his pocket watch and you can see the scarring and other small details on Alphonse's armor. I highly recommend putting this figure in a higher spot in your shelving or however you display your figures. Both characters are naturally looking downward, so the effect is much better if viewed from below.

As with all light-up gimmicks, I do wish there was an option to plug this into the wall. I guarantee that the battery will drain super quickly on the base if you keep it ...

Botan's iconic pose in a well detailed figure

Permalink

Not all the Hololive PUPs are home runs (I'm looking at you, Sora and Miko PUPs), but this one is. The paint job is great, the details are great and if you're a fan of Botan, you can't go wrong with this. I really, really like the way this figure came out. For the price, you really can't beat it. Also, the base is a small circular base, not that goofy, gigantic hexagonal one. Much, much easier to find a spot for her on your shelf!

It's Bone Daddy and he's large!

Permalink

I was surprised by the size of this figure. I wasn't expecting something this bulky! I thought it was just a slightly larger PUP. Shame on me for not confirming the size. My main gripes with this figure are the painting on the bones being average and the pose being bland. He doesn't have his staff and he's just kind of praying to the sky. They were probably thinking "he's casting a spell!", but if you're going to do that, at least add some extra parts/effects to make it look that way. However, for the price, it's good value I'd say. He's going to be mothballed if a really nice figure of Ains ever comes out!

The penultimate version of Shana!

Permalink

When I saw this sculpt come out without any paint, I was stoked. It was the perfect representation of Shana from the show. Had all the right details, perfect pose, great sculpt, and the painting quality is fantastic with all the shading and highlights. When I got it, that all still held true. Asides from the wings being an absolute pain in the ass to put on, no disappointments here. When putting on the wings, there just aren't any good spots to support the force you need to put them on without potentially damaging something. I also had to get these flame effects and put them with her to pump up her appearance. I think it worked well :D Tried to make it look like she was jumping and leav...Read moreClose

It's Vivy from the anime OP!

Permalink

I will say that this is a faithfully re-created figure of Vivy from the anime's OP. It does feel kind of "plain" overall, but I enjoyed the anime and really wanted a figure of Vivy. I kind of wish there was more flair to the figure to be honest. I just don't know if many Vivy figures will be ultimately made though, so I thought this was an opportunity to get her. If you liked the anime, I recommend getting this figure!

The classic Wolfwood in an awesome action pose!

Permalink

If you're a fan of Trigun, you can't ignore the classic Wolfwood. I really wasn't a fan of the "new" version of him, it didn't have the same "oomph" with his more techno looking cross and modern clothing. Nothing says "that looks dangerous" like the original Wolfwood cross. Was really happy they did a re-run of this figure so I could get him along with Vash! He comes with an extra face with sun glasses, but I chose not to do that with my figure. I have a picture of them together with Vash 2.0!

The classic Vash in a great action pose!

Permalink

As someone who grew up watching the original Trigun, this was a no brainer. I was really thrilled when it got a re-run because as I went looking for Trigun figures, this one and Wolfwood caught my eye, but were out of stock. Needless to say, it's pretty epic and goes great with Wolfwood. Highly recommend and here's a picture of him with Wolfwood and Vash 2.0!

TENITOL Inuyasha

Great figure for the price

Permalink

I was looking for Inuyasha with more of an action pose than his Pop Up Parade and this figure came along. Fairly affordable and looks good. Recommend for anyone looking for a more dynamic Inuyasha figure!

Amazing detail and quality!

Permalink

Lamy's outfit has always had a lot of small details in it and her overall model has a lot of artistic flair. This all comes out in this figure. It's extremely well done and is great. I love how even the base has got a nice art print on it and other small details. Hololive has really hit it out of the park with some of these scale figures! Looking forward to more.

Great LED light for FF fans!

Permalink

As someone who played a lot of FFRK, seeing these lights was a must be. I love how you can line them up to make it look like they are walking somewhere or put them on shelves in a way that makes it look like they are climbing the shelves. It takes 3 AAA batteries and let's you do a "bright" or "normal" setting. I prefer the normal if only to preserve the batteries. Really great quality and not overly large (~ 4 inches tall). Highly recommend if you're a fan of these characters.

Good Tsuna figure from Reborn! Captures him well

Permalink

I find a lot of pop up parades hit or miss these days, but this one is definitely a hit. The base is a circle (those hex bases are the worst) and it's reflective of him from the show. They used some translucent resin, which is rare in a pop up parade figure, to capture his powered up state. Definitely worth picking up.

PPT at her finest! This figure is absolutely gorgeous!

Permalink

I don't think I've ever seen such a beautiful, creative implementation of a figure for a character concept. The wings are beautiful and perfectly painted, the figure itself is really well done, the adornment of the stars and feathers on the base is just *muah*. I don't know if Kanata was involved with all the little aspects of this figure, but wow, it's really beautiful. If you are a Kanata fan or even just a Hololive fan, you absolutely must have this figure.

The only minor downside is there isn't a base plate at the bottom of her base. If you want to put her on a riser, you'd need something that would catch the edges of her base to properly support ...

Great rendition of Artoria from the Camelot story in FGO!

Permalink

She's beautifully painted and the pose is great. There isn't a lot of assembly involved either, which is nice. My only complaint revolves around the throne itself. Mine came with a long line of scuff on one of the front steps and the back piece had some residue and scuff on it. I'm not sure how it made it past QC. Assuming you get a perfect throne, I really have no complaints with this figure except the size. It's quite bulky and you need a lot of space to display it. It was why I initially passed on buying this until I expanded my capacity to hold figures. Kudos to TOM for helping out on the scuffed pieces!

Great sculpt and paint job. Perfectly captures Rory from the show

Permalink

Really happy with this figure. I love the flowing hair, details around the giant axe/halberd she wields and her outfit, and even the simple base. Fair warning, the axe head is much larger on the figure than what you see in the pictures. Top to bottom, the axe head is nearly the same size as her. Works just fine for how I'm displaying her, but she takes up quite a bit of space horizontally for anyone trying to fit her in a smaller space or with another figure (around 10.5" wide and 12" tall considering the total height of the halberd). If it was just a smidge too tall, you could probably chop off the military fork at the top a bit to fit it.

Beautiful figure, difficult construction

Permalink

Let me start with the positive. The figure is beautifully painted, with this pearlescent paint used on her clothing and generally speaking it's just all on point. The base is also decent, but not as high quality as the figure itself.

For the bad, putting this together was annoying. They provide no English instructions and when I translated the Japanese, they did not appear to provide sufficient direction. The first sign of trouble were the feet. You have to squeeze the legs together quite a bit to make sure they both fit onto their pegs. There are a few manufacturing "oopsies" and the instructions do not tell you that for the two hair parts, you have to put them on i...

Creative figure that really tries to re-create this moment from the show

Permalink

I don't think I've ever had a figure that included a background within the box that you can use as a sort of diorama/backdrop. While it's not perfect, it does add a bit of a cool effect to the overall figure. I will probably move this figure to my display case that has a black back to it, so it's a little less obvious it's a piece of cardboard behind her.

That being said, really love the details, paint job and pose they gave her. I prefer it when figures capture an iconic moment or pose from the series vs say a "sexy time" pose they made up to attract that crowd. Even worse is when the outfit isn't even from the show. I hope they decide to ma...

Beautiful, artistic piece that's amazing

Permalink

I don't think I've ever been more terrified of putting a figure together than I was with this one. Maybe the FGO Katsushika Hokusai (with the water and tiny tiny birds/hairpiece) was close in terms of delicacy. I did actually break parts off that FGO fig and had to super glue because they were too delicate. Thankfully, I did not break anything off this Sakura figure!

Some assembly advice for buyers:
* Anytime you feel like you need to apply some force, pull the piece out, double check how it wants to go in, make sure you line things up and then find safe spots to support the piece and apply very direct pressure (don't push hard). If pressure isn't worki...

A little overpriced, but a solid figure

Permalink

I really appreciated that for this figure, they included Morgana in car form as part of the base. Speaking of the base, it's really small, which I absolutely love. Large bases make it really hard to fit multiple figures into my DETOLF or RUDSTA cases. Now I'm confident I can fit at least 3 phantom thieves in one shelf, maybe 4! She has the option to go between shotgun and axe, but if you do the axe, she will take up a lot more room. If that's not a concern, go for it. The hat is also magnetically stuck in place and her fingers grip it too. I definitely had a "this is so cool" moment when I was putting it on. The paint job is good, with decent shadowing to make the pa...Read moreClose

This figure has a great style and look

Permalink

I liked the action in Kill la Kill and hated the oversexualization of the characters and their outfits. It kind of soured me on the overall show. I got this figure to enable free shipping for my order and was going to sell it to a friend. Then I took a look at it and said "Man, this figure just captures Ryuko so damn well". The look in her eye, the pose, it's just perfect. So now it's sitting with the rest of my collection and I have no regrets over that decision!

Underrated anime, overpriced set, typical Aniplex

Permalink

I love this show. I can re-watch it endlessly and not get tired of it. The quality of the blu-ray between visuals and music/sound FX are great. It's really enjoyable to chill on the couch and watch it at this quality. My only gripe would be how they split the episodes across so many blu-rays. I presume they did that to keep quality up, but it's tedious to have to get up and rotate discs when marathoning it. Maybe in some fantastic future we'll get normal prices from Aniplex. Thanks for the sale TOM! Otherwise I would've never been able to justify paying for these!

Great figures for an amazing show

Permalink

This was one of maybe only two figure sets where C.C. isn't overly sexualized. While it's a ridiculous pose of her twisting, the paint job (this beautiful pearlescent white) and the small accents/accessories, are awesome. They both managed to fit side-by-side together with some creative maneuvering in my DETOLF as well! I swapped in the Lelouch face that had the geass active and it makes the pose work great. The flamboyant movements in the show are well translated in these figures. If you are a fan of the series, I really recommend buying this set!

Great quality at a solid price point

Permalink

I love Jeanne Alter, who doesn't? There are some great 1/7th scale figures out there for her, but unfortunately my display space is limited given my collection size. I decided to get something around the size of a Pop Up Parade (PUP) figure, that seemed to have the right level of detail and quality that I wanted. I was pleasantly surprised with this line of figures. They all have great detail and paint quality to go with the smaller size and price points. Hopefully we get more in this line at these competitive price points.

More expensive than a Pop Up Parade, but better quality

Permalink

These are similar in size to Pop Up Parade (PUP) figures, but I feel like the quality of the paint and the details provided for the figure (all the items held etc) make this superior. I saw a recent mock up for the PUPs for Jeanne and they are kind of garbage compared to these. I also feel like in general, PUP quality feels highly variable figure to figure. Some are good, some are bad. All that being said, if you like the Fate series and Jeanne D'Arc and want a more budget friendly figure, you won't go wrong here.

Great figure, avoid the "deluxe" version though

Permalink

The figure is great and I believe is identical between the "Deluxe" and regular. The deluxe comes with an LED base, which in theory should make the presentation cooler, but has a fatal flaw. It requires batteries and drains those batteries within 1 week of continuous operation. If it is that power hungry, then they should have instead supplied an additional method of plugging into an electrical outlet. Now it's just a glorified, over-sized stand for the figure to be on. I would recommend that everyone avoid the deluxe version, save some money and buy the regular version. I love the figure itself!

Great detail and quality!

Permalink

As a huge Legend of Zelda fan, I've always wanted a great Link figure that was closer to a "realistic" expression of Link vs "artistic" (like Wind Waker). This fig totally scratches that itch. Really easy to assemble and looks great with my other gaming figs.

Futaba in Persona form

Permalink

I'm a little disappointed in the quality of the paint job here. It feels a little too simple to me. I've seen a lot of PUPs with stronger attention to detail. While Futaba was my favorite character, I guess she wasn't as popular as the others, so maybe not as much love. Still happy I have any figure of her in this form, so I'm ok with it.

Captures well Catarina and her goofy nature

Permalink

Really well detailed! Has her gardening bag at her side, the annoying teddy bear from the 2nd season and captures that whimsical view she has on life. If you're a big fan of this hidden gem of a show, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Solid reproduction of Towa

Permalink

Towa probably has the most boring look in the show, but her outfit here has a lot of detail to it in this PUP with the wrinkles and trim all well done. Unlike Setsuna, who has more going on with her outfit, Towa's detail actually stands out. It's kind of an annoying contrast when looking at the two PUPs. It would have been nice if Towa and Setsuna looked in different directions too. Since they both look in the same direction, you can't really place them in a way where they are looking at each other. That being said, for the price, you can't go wrong with this Towa figure.

She's ok

Permalink

The model is mostly good, her front bangs have a clear seam where they attach to the rest of the head. The paint job is fine, but boring. Her outfit is detail-less and plain. I feel like they could have done more to make it seem more varied and interesting. It's cheap though and the only Setsuna out there. I just wish given that her sister and cousin are PUPs that are well done that she could fit better besides them. This one would definitely fall into the category of "you get what you paid for".

Can't go wrong with this Kenshin!

Permalink

Loved the paint and modeling for this figure. There's a bit of an odd shadowing effect on his gray pants that doesn't look right. Since he's a wanderer, I chalk it up to showing off that aesthetic. The one downside here is that his socks and the base tend to blend together and the straps on the sandals get lost. Maybe with better lighting it would look better? Either way, for the price, I think this is solid.

Great Moroha!

Permalink

For the price, this is an excellent figure. Great model, well painted, good face and pose. She stands on my shelf in front of her dad and in between her cousins. Best Moroha figure around.

Best Inuyasha figure for the price

Permalink

This figure is hands down awesome. No fuss or issues with it, great paintwork, solid pose, and good modeling. For the price, it's an excellent figure. I've seen one or two cool Inuyasha figures with effects, but the price is nuts. You really can't go wrong with this one and it meshes GREAT with the other Yashahime PUPs.

Solid Kirito figure and pose!

Permalink

Good pose, well painted and modeled. I had quite a bit of trouble getting his sword to fit into the plastic groove. It finally got in there properly, but it was a lot more effort than it should have been. The struggle to get that sword to fit in is enough for me to take away a star.

Great Asuna figure for the price

Permalink

I really love the paint job and modeling here. It's a really cool pose, but it has some problems. First, she's looking down, not ahead like it shows in the picture. Second, good luck getting that sword to be where they claim it should be. It won't stay. I don't know why it is so difficult for these guys to QC these figures or provide decent instructions if there's something we're supposed to do to make it work. I tried a lot of different things and I couldn't get that sword to comfortably rest in her hands. Oh well.

Amazing Megumin! That cape though...

Permalink

This figure is amazing. It really captures the Megumin explosion perfectly. Chomusuke being on the hat is like a cherry on top. Biggest problem? The cape. It's not manufactured correctly. Even though you can pull off her head, the parts that push down into her shoulder don't fit properly. The little piece that is supposed to plug the back of the cloak onto the plastic effect piece is over an inch away from where it's supposed to be. Now unless you look closely, none of these are really a problem, but it's very annoying. For the price you pay, you expect the manufacturing and QC to be a lot better than what you get. That being said, I would still buy it again! It's a ...Read moreClose

Solid Aqua fig!

The paint quality is good and they did a good job adding that translucent effect under her dress. Too bad she didn't come with the shawl. For the price though, you really can't beat this. Hopefully there is a great action-pose figure of her like Megumin got that we can all one day get!
