Disappointing Panty

Dancing Queen — Sat, 30 Jul 2011 02:30:59 +0000

This new Panty figure from Sentinel is honestly so disappointing. I was expecting some amazing Panty and Stocking figures, and this one just is a huge pass for me, which is very sad since I’m a huge fan of the show and a fan of that particular character. I really hope that it’s just either the promotional pictures are lacking and she is actually nicer in person, but her face is just so horribly done that I’ll be passing on this figure and waiting for Alter and GSC to make their versions for my collection.

Do you like her face? Am I crazy or will you be passing on her as well? I’d like to know what you guys think! If you guys are gonna pre-order, here are some places you should be able to find her! She’s around 6,700¥ and will be out around November this year.

Max Factory Asuka Langley Shikinami Pre-Order

Dancing Queen — Thu, 28 Jul 2011 09:02:37 +0000

I’ve been dying for this figure to be released since last year! Saw pictures of the prototype at Wonfest last year and she’s finally out for pre-order now! It’s a 1/6 Asuka figure and she’s so lovely!

GAH! I’m biased, surely since I adore Max Factory oh so much. Yet this Asuka figure has got to be one of the best ones ever! Well we won’t know for sure until I get to see her in my hands!

Oh Dat Ass..

Oh this figure is amazing! I can’t wait till we get the Rei since we already have Mari out which I should have a review of her up soon! This Asuka will be out around August of this year for around 5,700 yen. Try any one of these retailers to get your pre-order in!

2011 Summer Wonfest Native!

Dancing Queen — Wed, 27 Jul 2011 08:48:05 +0000

It’s no secret, I love Native figures. I adore them! Am I a pervert? No. I’m an enthusiast of sexual diversity. (lol my friend’s quote, not mine!) However, I do adore their new figures! I don’t have any Native figures in my collection, but I plan to change that very soon with some of these amazing lovelies! This post is very NSFW!

So cute!

Oh no, poor girl is losing her undies! Or maybe taking them off!

Love the original artwork!

Very pretty!

Super Sonico! I love Super Sonico!

The original artwork is so pretty, I can’t wait to see this figure fully painted!

Who doesn’t love a girl in Bondage and a sukumizu?

I’m assuming artwork of the character but it’s not the same that she’s based on.

Can’t wait to see this!

These girls are super cute!

All pictures are from Akibahobby.net For most there are no details but you can check out all Native figures on their website but they only ship within Japan so you’ll need a proxy.

Max Factory Elsie Pre-Order

Dancing Queen — Thu, 28 Apr 2011 08:34:30 +0000

I recently got to see all of the first season of The World God Only Knows on Crunchyroll and LOVED IT! I totally forgot that Max Factory announced this figure during wonfes since I didn’t see the show at the time. Now That I’ve seen it I really want, no I need this figure!

Max Factory always makes such amazing figures and this one is one that I can’t pass up!

I am adoring this sculpt!

Her magic scarf is removable which is nice, but I’d always leave it on her, gives it a nice color contrast!

This figure is awesome, at a retail price of 8,800 yen she’s not that expensive for a 1/8th scale figure that is so well detailed and comes with such an awesome base! She’s up for pre-order at anyone of these awesome and fine bootleg free retailers!

Banpresto Cowboy Sheryl Nome

Dancing Queen — Thu, 28 Apr 2011 08:12:43 +0000

Went to Sakura Con this past weekend, I haven’t impulsed bought a figure in a long time. But when I saw this Sheryl I knew I had to own her. If only for the fact that at the time I was cosplaying this exact outfit!

Lovely wavy hair!

A very plain base but the color works perfectly for this figure!

She’s a cheapish prize figure release by Banpresto. The quality is on par with sega prize figures so you know what kind of quality to expect.

My complaint is her mouth, the shading they did is horrible, it looks like she ate tons of cheetos right before and her whole mouth is orangy.

Also the shading on her shirt is a little too blue, it should be white.

Nice pink panties. It was funny as the first thing my boyfriend comments on is how my cosplay was inaccurate because I wasn’t wearing Pink panties. Silly boys!

Her eyes do look very vibrant and blue. She does get bonus points for having lovely eyes.

Her hat and her gun are also very cute and well detailed!

Its funny how most people I knew thought my shirt was wrong since it was so short, they kept trying to cover it with the vest, until I got the figure and showed them how her shirt is meant to be a crop top did they leave it alone!

Love her boots!

I love this Sheryl figure, but not as a figure collector but as a Sheryl fan. There are plenty of times that we buy figures based on characters we love, there are times we buy figures we love even though we have no idea where they’re from. But for me, there are rare times I buy a figure of lesser quality of a character I like unless it’s Yoko. I like this figure since the outfit is special to me. Otherwise I would never buy this figure, the quality is lacking and It’s not painted nicely on the face, yet I like her. Would I suggest her to you? Only if you are a huge Sheryl fan, or a Sheryl fan looking for a cheap figure. Yet if you want a higher quality Sheryl there are many more I would suggest to get instead.

-Figure Info-
Manufactured by Banpresto
Non Scale
Initial release in November ’10
Price of 1,400 Yen

As a prize figure she isn’t too hard to find but for a bit of a markup, I paid $30 for mine. You should be able to find her at any one of these fine bootleg free retailers!

Very NSFW Native Strawberry Girl

Dancing Queen — Mon, 11 Apr 2011 20:40:57 +0000

First off this post is pretty Not Safe For Work, wait till you are home to look at this post… This is my first figure review of a figure by Native; Native is Max Factory’s NSFW collection mixing the words Naked + Creative. As expected of Max Factory the figures are divine and really a treat!

This particular figure is actually my gift to my boyfriend for Christmas this year. I asked him only one question; School Girl? or Meido? He answered School Girl so I tracked down this lovely gem of a figure! Had he said Meido we’d be reviewing this figure instead NSFW LINK!

I love when a figure is based off particular artwork that way you can compare the two!

Aptly named Strawverry Girl A, this figure is just so well sculpted and so lovely. I almost forget she’s naked because her face is so lovely I end up only looking at her face.

Lovely Oppai, not too big, not too small. Just right! Also I love how you can see she isn’t perfectly skinny but has a smallish pooch of a belly. it’s so cute and sexy!

Delicious Shimapan, the way she’ slowly pulling it off for you is just so sexy! as well as the Zettai Ryouiki.

She comes with a nice addition of a chair with Strawberries and cream. They are a huge pain in the butt as any small movement and they go flying!

Yet they do work nicely with the figure’s design.

I expected this figure to be as lovely as she is. While I know this figure isn’t for everyone as some people don’t like Ecchi figures, if you are a fan of Ecchi figures look up most anything made by Native, they have an amazing line of figures all beautifully sculpted and painted! I am a huge fan of this figure and this figure is one that I personally feel is more of a work of art than a thing to fap to.

-Figure Info-
Manufactured by Native
1/7 Scale
Initial release in June ’10
Price of 9,000 Yen

Sadly this figure is released through Native’s website, so you’ll have to find a proxy to help you buy a Native figure. But if you’re looking for other Ecchi figures you can try these awesome sites! All Bootleg free! Unlike those on my Black List
