Another Lovely Misty

Remember the recently announced Misty (Mistral Nereis) from Alter. If that one isn't up to your taste and budget, here's another one from Kotobukiya. She's also a 1/8 scale figure but with a lower price tag of 9,200 yen. She has and interesting  pose standing on one feet while winking at yah. The design looks totally attractive but I'm afraid of that hair strands that's floating in mid-air. It might droop down after some time. The base isn't as interesting as Alter's but it isn't boring with those stars which is actually pretty.

She is a July 2013 release... wait what?!! That's the release month of POP Armored Franky, and probably POP Shanks too! That means I won't be able to get her again as my priority would be POPs. Oh, well. So much for this. I'll just drool on these photos and wait for my chance to get her whenever my wallet allows me. I may just be interested with her because she's a pirate and I really love sexy female pirate :) 

If you're also interested, she's now up for preorder at Amiami, Hobby Search and HLJ. As for me I'll still try to resist her.

Ani*Statue - Cryska Barchenowa (Plugsuit ver)

Kotobukiya's follow-up to Ani*Statue -Yui Takamura (Plugsuit ver) is Cryska (or Kriska) Barchenowa. And like the former, she looks gorgeously sexy in her plugsuit. But unlike Yui Takamura, she is posed in a sitting position like a pin-up girl while holding a gun on her left hand. I love that color scheme and that diorama style base. She looks absolutely fantastic specially when paired up with Yui Takamura (and the planned Inia Sestina)

My only problem is that my budget is fully occupied by POPs and I can't manage to get other figures aside from those. Well, that how is works. Get the priority figures first and just drool at the photos of these lovely figures.

To be released on May 2013. Preorders are now up at Amiami, HLJ, Hobby Search, Otacute at their discounted prices.

At Last, Yui Takamura In A Plugsuit

Finally, Yui Takamura in a plugsuit. There's a lot of Yui Takamura and Muv-Luv Alternative figures out there but almost all of them are half-naked and in sexy pose. While this Kotobukiya's Yui Takamura is still looking sexy, she is wearing a cool plugsuit which is her main costume while piloting a mecha. The plugsuit seems to be very tight as you can almost see the overall shape of her body. She comes with a Katana and a nice diorama styled base. There are also plans for Cryska Barchenowa and Inia Sestina, both in plugsuits following this figure so I believe that these three would look really nice together.

She will be up for preorder on the 20th of November but information for price and release date yet.
