Agreed with Gordon that I could have used 14000 Yen for many other stuff, be it scaled figures (2 to 3?), figmas, 1/144 tanks (more than 20), or various gunpla models!

Even when I win the lotto, I will still say no. Where's the detail? T_T As what panther said, it’s “cold cast” and with this material, ur expected to pay a high price for it.

I like the theme of the second figure but its not too well executed either.The festival line also has a Ryomou and Kanu and they look a lil bit better but not too much tough I wondered about exactly the same thing as you.Especially about the first figure.Its a boring idea and a bad execution of it.

I only bought it because I got it at a discount. I do like how it feels heavier, but to justify an even higher price than what PVC figures are it better be super detailed.
