Notice the reflection in the above pic? That’s because it’s a pic of a print ^_^ AdoramaPix is a photo printing service offered by Adorama – no I don’t have any affiliation with them but just wanted to spread the word that they’re currently offering a $25 credit towards your first order! It’s been awhile since I’ve held an actual photo in hand and figured what the heck. You do have to pay for shipping (the $25 credit will not count towards shipping) but my order arrived by USPS priority mail for just $5.

Index! Alas, the poor thing seems to fall out of her role as a main character despite having the series named after her ^^; Maybe it’s that pity that got me to buy her :P Anyhow, we’ve got Good Smile Company’s 1/8 release here today, and I’d say it’s a solid get for her fans.

Glad to have that FFXIII rant off my chest ^^; Back to figures, shall we? Flandre by Griffon! She’s one of the more famous touhou characters but for those of you who aren’t yet familiar, Flandre first appeared as the extra boss of the first Windows touhou game, The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil. A vampire of immense power, sealed away in the basement of the Scarlet Devil Mansion for nearly 500 years…

I really love 大沖‘s (daioki) work. Something about the sort of subdued energy of his characters. Talked about harumination before and was delighted to find out he loves touhou (or at least making touhou doujin). Today’s figure is the counterpart to the reimu i reviewed earlier – though she was released earlier – CIRNO!!

Still in Tokyo, yet another review I actually managed to write up before ^_^
Pantsu witches is an amazing series. I mean… you’ve got chicks flying around in their pantsu shooting guns. What could be more amazing than that? Well maybe pantsu that fly by themselves… but this series takes itself much more seriously I’d say ^^;
miyafuji yoshika, the main character, but alas not my favorite ^^; got her mostly ‘cuz i thought i’d collect the entire set at the time ^^;;

Woo hoo! At long last we finally have the gal for whom the series is named after ^^ Looking back on Alter’s release history… looks like it’s been almost 2 years since they started StrikerS releases with rein! Guess I’d say it was worth it given the general trend of pvc improvements we’ve seen. Nanoha has some big shoes to fill not only as the main character but also coming right after feito-chan ^^;

Feeling a bit rusty in the review department so thought I’d take some quick practice shots with reimu.
I hope my copy is legit, seemed to good to be true getting her at toranoana for 3000 yen ^^; Used goody japan as a proxy so the entire transaction still cost a bit, but given what she’s probably going for on ebay I imagine I didn’t overspend ^^;
Only a fraction of the number of pics that I usually put up for a full review so that along with the extremely late timing… again, more of a test shot post then a review ^^;
