A Woman's Take on Figure Collecting

How a Girl Figures

Touhou Super Deformed #3

I’ve been gone too long! Have you missed me? I Missed you! I haven’t been able to bring you anything new and awesome for a few reasons, mainly lack of new figures. Had to cancel all my pre-orders. No Black Rock Shooter, No Alter Mio, No Megahouse Sheryl. Nothing :( But With some luck i’ll be able to get back into the swing of things for you!

For now I’m lucky that my older brother likes to spend money, and that him and his friends have become huge Touhou Fans I get first dibs on his figures for review! This set is actually not his or mine, but belongs to a friend of him.

This Super Deformed set is really cute, Remilia Scarlet, the elder sister of the two. Very cute. I do have to admit that I know nothing of Touhou but love the character design!

A bit smaller than Nendoroids but not as small as Petite Nendoroids either.

Not moveable, and more like a gashapon still very cute and well detailed.

I love her color scheme with the blue and pink. Very adorable!

Bloomers are so cute! Did I mention that my cosplay group Cosplaycute.com are planning a Touhou cosplay as per my brother’s request.

Very cute batwings as well.

Here we have Flandre Scarlet, to my understanding she’s the crazy one.

Very cute with her little fang, those always mean that the character will be mischievous

Love her vibrate blonde hair! Oh did I mention I’m a blonde now? Dyed my hair and everything! I’ve still got a few more times at the salon before it’s 100% blonde but once I do i’ll post pictures for you!

There are a few seam lines that look bad but then for such a small figure it’s hard to avoid those.

Love her back and the colorful crystals.

So colorful!

It also comes in quite the fancy case, to my understanding this is the main reason why they wanted this figure set. They really liked the box it came in.

A very nice set, not exactly my taste since i’m more of a scaled figure kinda gal. If you’re a fan of Touhou it’s a set to get your hands on, if only for the awesome box it comes in. Hopefully I’ll get more reviews in, I’ll do some of the older figures I have and when i get figures from my brother. He seems to be enjoying figure collecting and having me to help him choose the best of the best He’s enjoying this expensive hobby!

    *shakes fist of angst* I made tons of purchases, so you’ll have some stuff to take pics of. You need to take pics of the latest haul from ALA…

    My favorite part of these two figures was the box as well. I might just pick them up when I go back to my temporary home.

    Thanks for sharing and it’s good to see you again. I do enjoy your reviews even if I don’t post much.

    These figures of the Scarlet sisters are pretty neat. I wonder why they came in the fancy case though. I do hope they get released as nendos some day.

    Since you dyed your hair blonde I wonder what character you will cosplay as, Flandre, Marissa or someone else?

    Pretty nice toys, I see a lot more people are getting into touhou.

    It’s kind of nice that this release comes in a nice fancy box while the other ones come in a clam shell $1 dollar packaging.

    Good job DQ, you didn’t research much before reviewing.

    Dancing Queen Reply:

    Never claimed I knew anything about touhou other than they are a cute set.

    grapefields Reply:

    If not claiming anything, then disclaim. It’s easy for an audience to take assumptions.

    That is probably the coolest case I’ve ever seen. If I find it in stock, buying it just for that.

    HUM. I don’t know much about Touhou at all (except that it’s popular.) but I can appreciate the cuteness of the pics X3

    I’m so happy you updated too <33 I always look forward to your posts~

    Dancing Queen Reply:

    that’s as much as i know of it as well, that and it’s supposedly super hard to play, but other than that i know nothing! I’ve got some backup plans for future posts, mostly friends loaning me figures for review! I’m lucky i have people who in into similar hobbies!
