ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 (edited) http://www.hlj.com/product/BEA07047 60 cm, but i'd imagine Minmay would be 50 or so bucks cheaper (50 cm) but who knows, thought it'd be news for someone. $683 US Smackers!

ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 This new Minmay looks beautiful! So whats the go, when's the DYRL? Minny available for purchase? Don't tell me it's a bloody exclusive again... not that i would be able to afford it anyways. >_< lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaorin Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 (edited) From Wonderfest: Source: http://web.mac.com/leungr/mgbbactionfigure/WF2008S_P2.html that one's nice! not as much as the DYRL, IMO, but still VERY nice!! as an aside, i recently managed to win a loose 14" TSUKUDA HOBBY SAKURA TAISEN sakura shinguji for $17.00 off ebay. i made a complete set of lingerie for her, as T.H.s supplied panties and socks were poorly done. anyway, here is the result of a rather hard week's hurried effert...

VFTF1 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 For me, personally, the proportions on Minmey are all wrong. The long legs, the small breast size, slender arms... but Minmey's proportions are totally NOT like that. The proportions of the CMS figure that's coming out is more accurate to how Minmey looks (at least insofar as I know her - which is mainly from SDF M TV). She's more compact. Her legs are not long; although they are certainly proportional and nice - but they are not loooong. Her breasts are also bigger than on that doll, and - finally - her face is more "charlie brown cheeks" - she has a girlish look. Here - she's just too polished. Finally - the skin - way way waaay to plasticy. They need to give that skin some life. Kaiyodo's Fraulein line achieves all of this far better - although I do understand that they have the luxury of not having to actually dress a doll, but simply mold the clothes/figure as w hole... Maybe it's the effect of DYRL? In any case - I just can't get myself to root for these dolls beyond being superficially pleased that they are trying to make them... And it's not the price - I'm used to Yamato charging kidneys so the price doesn't bother me - I just ... don't like it... It's not that I hate it or anything - but I can't find myself loving it either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crescens Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 (edited) looks very nice, but those joins on knees and arms kinda ruin the look of it... sure it\'s cool you can pose her ,but what looks good when it comes to Valks dont look so good here. *looks at all those Valks in BG...* me wants them so much Edited November 25, 2008 by crescens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonc Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I finally received mine a couple days ago and had the chance to put her together. It's a very cool doll, and let me say for the record, it's much bigger than a barbie. Sometime when I create some space, I'll put my Hikaru 1/100 in front of it and do the famous DYRL pic on Bodolza. As far as the proportions go, the legs are a little long, but I think that everything else is fine. I'm actually wondering how I can get the red dress and hair for that Minmay. The clothing of the figure I have now is made very well, and you can tell that a lot of care was put into that. Overall, I'm glad I made the purchase. It's an expensive item, but very limited.

ntsan Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Well I think Yamato may going to produce the chinese dress in the future Seriously between the weathered "zero" playability VF-1S and fully playable large doll for not too big in price difference I'd rather get the doll.

VFTF1 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Heh - yeah - dolls are more expensive; but then it's always been that way - even at the "lower end" My Little Ponies and Barbies were always WAAAY more expensive that Transforemrs and GI Joe. Thus, I always told my mom she was lucky I was a boy Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ff95gj Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I very much agreed. I do not recognize it's Minmay at all. Where are the resemblances except for the blue hair and the dresses? It may just be Kamille (yes, Kamille Vidan) cross dressing... For me, personally, the proportions on Minmey are all wrong.

BTW, how did you aquire her? how much did you pay? i doubt that i'll ever be able to get her myself, so i'll have to make a copy of her dress for my little Shaorin here: http://shaorin-chan.deviantart.com/art/Mis...oruru-109758316 in the mean, however, i'll have to be satisfied with this little songstress of mine: http://shaorin-chan.deviantart.com/art/Pri...nger-1-88262977 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
