anime52k8 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Do it, Do It! My only concern with that statue, is her leaning over time. It's basically between this and Masterpiece Optimus prime. I can only afford one and I'm not sure what I should do; Keep up the MP prime hunt, or give up and get this. Can't make decisions, too much pressure.

anime52k8 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 you know what the worst part is? while price checking/finding a retailer that actually stocked the one I got, I discovered that the same sculptor/manufacturer did a version of this character that's even more amazing and I want even more. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIG-MOE-1765&page= It never ends does it.

myk Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 (edited) You know I think I have to say that's the BEST rendition of her YET, and considering how great that sculpt is $155 give or take, isn't bad...

renegadeleader1 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I haven't seen this anime yet but I have seen a bunch of good statues for this character. This is yet another one. Do you have pictures of the racing swimsuit version? Or the producing company name so I can search for it. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIG-MOE-0229&page=top%2Fsearch%2Flist%3Fs_keywords%3Dkanu+swimsuit%24pagemax%3D100%24getcnt%3D0%24pagecnt%3D1 Granted its not the most "flashy" of her figures, but I like it.

If I could actually find one for 155 plus shipping I would have already bought it. it came out 2 years ago and absolutely nobody has one that isn't asking $350+ for it.

It never ends does it. That Sir is why I have six diffferent figures of her. One of the statues that I want most of her is when she is depicted as a shrine maiden, from the cover of vol 13. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIG-MOE-0451&page=top%2Fsearch%2Flist%3Fs_keywords%3Dkanu+unchou%24pagemax%3D100%24getcnt%3D0%24pagecnt%3D1 http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIG-MOE-0136&page=top%2Fsearch%2Flist%3Fs_keywords%3Dkanu+unchou%24pagemax%3D100%24getcnt%3D0%24pagecnt%3D2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the first one, or at least the first one I noticed, by the same sculptor/company is still the best one. She has the more "real" style face. http://www.amiami.co...0%24pagecnt%3D1 Granted its not the most "flashy" of her figures, but I like it. Cool thanks.

mechaninac Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Beautiful figure, but it almost looks like she's treating her naginata as a stripper's pole... not that there's anything wrong with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anime52k8 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 hmm... I kind of like them, but I already have the original versions. I still think they're missing an obvious repaint in a pallet swap between the two. http://www.hlj.com/product/YMT38060 http://www.hlj.com/product/YMT35059 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Focker Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) after years of hunting, finally tracked down one of these rare critters lurking under my sofa... Silver Rathalos, limited release from Hi-Blitz another item i've been lucky to finally find after first seeing it in HK last year (shop was still closed, and gone when i returned for it a mere half hour later). chanced upon it in a local shop selling dolls: Sheryl Nome, 3D/Lenticular A3 poster too bad the holographic effect is lost in the picture. it's pretty well done with the several "layers" and good perceived depth. and since the macross gods were smiling on me that day, i also helped myself to these 3D posters: edit: not anime, but thought i'd share this as well Minas Tirith, crafted by The Danbury Mint Edited December 12, 2012 by Major Focker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Focker Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) nope. this one has a 22 inch wingspan it was released several years ago as a pre-order bundle with the Monster Hunter PS3 game. yes, there is a smaller revoltech version which should be released soon, if not already.
