Kotori is Finally Here!

in: Figures

I finally got my Kotori in the mail today! She’s amazing! Yes I did jump on the Da Capo bandwagon a little late, but oh well. I was lucky to find her really, I stumbled upon a website called Entertainment Earth and they are having a blowout sale! So I got my Kotori here for $20.30! Yes I know, seems fishy but I gave it a try since they have a 90 day return policy, I thought “hey, if it’s fake i’ll just return it!” Well lucky me she’s the real thing! Now this isn’t the best picture but i just had to take one now. It’s done with my own personal camera but i’ll steal my dad’s Digital SLR once it’s sunny outside and do a shoot with her^_^. I will say i like how it came out with the flowers in the background. Even though it’s just my bathroom…

    Kotori was more superior than all the other characters in that crappy show/game. Nemu is a freaking attention whore. I hate her.

    Definitely a favourite amongst my collection, and this figure was one of the first to show that Max Factory was becoming one fo the big 4 in figure production.

    Definitely the best Kotori PVC out there. A great buy!

    [...] Max Factory 1/8 Shirakawa Kotori I had technically paid for her in December but i didn’t receive her till January of this year, for my first figure of the year i have to say that it was an amazing figure. I had finally set out to watch Da Capo and when i did i, (like most people) loved Kotori. She was such a sweet character and while Junichi may have chosen Nemu, we all chose Kotori. As for the actual PVC version of Kotori, she’s a good quality figure, my only thought is she is super tall for a 1/8 scale figure. Standing next to a few of my other 1/8 scale ladies she seems tall, she’s as tall as a few 1/7 scale figures I own but then her proportions don’t match the 1/7 scale figures. Overall any fan of Da Capo must own this figure, get your own here. [...]
