The original version of this figurine has been one of my favorites of all time since I got her, but this one is even better!! For a prize figure, this is an incredibly detailed and pristinely painted figurine. If I didn't know it was a prize figure, I would think it was one of those expensive finely crafted figurines from Max Factory. It's more than worth the money, and purple being my favorite color I just had to get both versions of this figure asap!! Also, the pose is so adorable and not too strange, like some figures can be. I am abundantly pleased!!
