It's been a while since I've posted anything on here. I've been getting a lot of questions as to whether or not I'd keep this site as I'll be working with GSC now. I'll still post here from time to time, but lately my time has been taken up by work so it won't be as often sadly. But last night I got… [more]
Did you know I like Yoko from Gurren Lagann? Well I do! I own about 28 Yoko figures and am still missing only one to complete my collection of all the Scaled PVCs of Yoko. This is the latest one that has been released for Gurren Lagann's 5th Year Anniversary.Of course I'm partially biased when it… [more]

Weee Alter's Panty finally came in! Been dying for a decent Panty and Stocking figure and Alter has answered our calls! There are only a few Panty figures and by far this one is the best. Her face is truly Panty!Her eyes especially are panty, even the teeny bit of blue eye shadow that figures rarely… [more]

Haven't shown off my updated room, not much has changed other than, of course more figures! There have been so many more figures since the last update. I decided to group all my Black Rock Shooter figures together, I feel they look better together than separated around the room.I've gotten so many… [more]
It’s no secret I adore Super Sonico. I’ve not played any of Nitro+’s games based on this adorable character design but the design is enough for me to adore. I was saddened when I missed out on my chance for the Orchid Seed figure I reviewed but am happy to now have my hands on this stunning Native version of Sonico.
Based on this adorable yet sexy picture of Sonico getting out of the shower, Sonico is really well made and looks downright adorable. Who knew someone so sexy could be so cute!
She comes with two towels but the other doesn’t cover up at all. It’s a different material but I had already packed it before I did this review, sorry for the lack of photos of the alternate towel.
I’d say she’s really well made other than the fold over on the arm/chest area. It looks like her top chest isn’t a part of her torso, however you don’t display her from the side so it’s not something you on a daily basis.
The bathtub is pretty but for some reason they only gave the corner the claw, the other sides all have black pegs.
Sonico’s face is just so perfect, I personally don’t see any flaws with her face. The look on her eyes, the slightly open mouth. Perfection!
I as well love her headphones, I wonder why she never takes them off.
Seems she didn’t rinse off all the soap, sadly it’s not removable. Yet I don’t think it takes away from this figure.
As mentioned you can remove the towel, on her left arm where you see the pink arm band, you can pull her arm off and carefully remove the towel.
She does have some very large breasts. While no boobs that big would look like that, I still enjoy their approach to breasts. Anime has never been about realism, so why complain that the boobs don’t look real, the girls aren’t real to begin with!
Still…. NICE!
The hand does seem a bit akward now that she’s not holding up the towel.
Or you could say she’s holding her boobs up, since from this angle it does look like she’s holding them up.
I said it before, I’ll say it again, LOVE HER FACE!
Sonico even comes with her own set of bathroom buddies!
They are pretty adorable and well made i might add, wouldn’t be surprised if they were originally sculpted with a 3d printer.
Back view of the tub, she also comes with a metal peg and holder to hold onto her left leg. It’s not really necessary but since you can’t see it from the front it’s still good to have extra support.
Yep, their big alright.
Super Sonico, nothing more to say really. I love this figure, she came from the big whole in the ceiling I got while I was away at Anime Expo. You may be able to find her at Toylet. Native figures are a little hard to get once they pre-order closes. When new native figures come out I’ll make sure to post about them so you can get them and not have to hunt them down afterwards!

Nice review and pics.
A bit too ecchi for my taste but I beleive this version of her has the best headsculpt.
Yeah, I adore her face in this figure above all the ecchi parts, yes i do enjoy the ecchi parts but her face just is the best part!
Beautiful Sonico, and great photoshoot (as always)! I already regret not pre-ordering her up, especially with all the lovely photos of her popping up online. =/
Now that you mention it, the bubbles sticking to her bum are kind of awkward, but her wonderful face makes up for it! I love how they glossed her lips too. It’s always the little details that get me.
Thanks for the review!

I was so happy to get her since I also missed the pre-order, Native figures are some of the hardest to get once you miss the pre-order
Aw how hard do you think it will be for me to get this one now =( also why doesn’t amiami get this figure?
it’ll be a little hard to get now that she’s passed her pre-order period. But I don’t know why AmiAmi doesn’t carry them, maybe it’s only on Native’s site to keep it limited.
bueno.

Nice review! It would be nice if the headphones came off.
The whole thing with Sonico is that her headphones don’t come of, so even in the bath she doesn’t take them off.
Today I have the Super Soniko Bondage version from Orchid Seed on review, this figure was released on May 15th 2011. She is a 1/7 scaled figure with a height of 160 mm,sculpted by Tanaka Masanori. This figure was popular enough for having all pre-orders sold out before the release, sometimes it’s good to place preorders soon enough ^o^ I preordered her early at AmiAmi and paid around 9790 yen, EMS shipping rate of 3160 yen included, haha a total price crazy as batshit, but I wanted her as soon as possible, so I didn’t give it a second thought.
