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]

Of course I’m partially biased when it comes to figures of Yoko, so it’s hard for me not to like one. Still for the price I feel the quality of this Yoko figure is pretty awesome. It isn’t up to par with say GSC or Alter but she’s still very nice for a prize figure.
Boota is grabbing onto Yoko’s top and pulling, seems she’s worried her top might fly off at any moment!
Some seam lines as well as the paint is a bit too glossy for my taste. As well as there are some shading issue with this figure, however she wasn’t much money and you do get what you pay for in terms of quality.
Her face is pretty adorable with the open mouth, but if you don’t look at her at the correct angle she does look a little derpy sadly.
The base is simple but the way she’s being held up is cool. The 5th Anniversary, makes me wish more companies released Gurren Lagann merchandise for this 5th year.
Nice view from the back, her shorts are very devoid of any detail, not there there is much to focus on.
As mentioned her base is pretty awesome in that it has Lagann’s hand coming out to hold her up. It really does add that extra special something nice to this figure.

This Yoko isn’t the best out there for sure, but if you’re on a budget I’d say she’s the one to get. If you’re looking for best quality there are plenty of other Yoko’s out there that are much better and prettier. I got her as I’m a huge fan of Yoko and Gurren Lagann and couldn’t resist! If you’re like me or are just looking for an inexpensive Yoko figure, then I’d get her!!

How much was she I like her =)

I got that figure too, I know isn’t the best quality but it’s a great deal for that price
Btw… why your Yoko’s skin is that shiny?, mine doesn’t looks like that :O?
Also, what do you think about the base?, I like the whole figure but I wonder if it can have leaning problems in the future, I would be terrified if she bends :’(
I wonder mine is so shiny now… I’m not worried about the base or her leaning too much, it seems they made her sturdy enough to not lean over
I like it! I try to limit the amount of figures I have of one character due to space but sometimes I break my own rules!
So far I have 3 Yokos, 3 Sabers I think.
Rules were meant to be broken! Muwhaahaha
Its been discussed on MFC, but it appears there is some leaning issue with her. The lean is apparently around her waist area rather than the ankle/leg area. One user posted a pic in which they used a trading figure peg, attached to the inside wall of a detolf and rest Yoko’s arm against it.
ohh, hope mine doesn’t lean then
Here’s what one MFC user is doing. I try to find something similar before I display her.

I’m getting her too
Nice review and the figure looks quite good considering it’s prize category.
Does she have a metal screw in her leg that would keep her from leaning?
I’m a bit disappointed they didn’t include the long barrel of her sniper rifle :/

no sure about leaning, hearing she might have problems with leaning but not in her legs but her waist
just yesterday were 2 preowned for around 1100 JPY @ amiami … sold out already.
Ordered this yesterday! Very very excited, my first figure (though potentially my last- I don’t have a ton of money to throw around, but I REALLY needed a Yoko in my life, and this one seemed to fit the bill of quality/price.)
its nice but not for my taste.
Where can I find this cute for sale? (For a decent price, pls)
