Alter has done a wonderful job with the paint. I love the small details the figure has that I didn't notice in the previews. I really like the chocolate heart base they are on. Maki seems to have some trouble staying connected on her base, but the grip on Nico makes her stay in place better. Either way, if you love Maki and Nico, I highly recommend this figure. It's a nice valentines day figure for yourself <3
