Not Your Usual Three-Headed Beast


I don't play Rage of Bahamut (it's a mobile app card game if you're not familiar). Probably opened the app a few times, but didn't played it much in that sense. In fact, I am only playing Pantheon the Legends (another mobile app card game). But I find the character card designs of Rage of Bahamut to be impressive. My awestruck to these characters was taken to the next level when Kotobukiya stepped in and produced a 1/8th figure of Dark Angel Olivia which I didn't find any hesitation to preorder because of her stunning beauty.

This time, it's Max Factory's turn to give us an impressive figure based on that social game. And we got a stunning beauty of a 1/7th scale Cerberus figure. Everyone is aware that a Cerberus is a three-headed beast, but you're vision of a Cerberus will forever be changed by this figure. I saw this one unpainted during the Wonder Festival 2013 Summer. At that time, it doesn't look interesting with the lack of colors. I took is as just some random sexy figure. And to my surprise when I saw these photos of the fully painted figure.

I love the mixture of colors. That shiny metallic-like purple armour is really nice to look at with all those golden trims. The curves and sexiness of her body sculpt is nearly perfect. The hair that is flowing in mid-air and that fabric add up to the interesting features. Her face is really lovely with that innocent smile. The details of those cute little dog hands is a wonderful bonus. I really can't find a word to describe her gorgeousness. Fantastic details, that's what I'm seeing.

Of course, a stunningly detailed figure comes with a high price tag. The figure will retail for 13,800 yen. Not surprising for a Max Factory produced figure of this complexity. It will be yours and ready to be cuddled by June of 2014. Hoping it won't be delayed but for a figure distributed by Good Smile Company, delays are inevitable. So crossing fingers for that. 

And guess what? Preorders for Max Factory Rage of Bahamut - 1/7th Scale Cerberus has already opened, so do check out your favorite hobby shops or get her here at HLJ, Hobby Search and Amiami while it's still available.

Below are the official photos by Max Factory (via Good Smile Company) and the preview photos from Kahotan's blog.
