Loot: Sion, Asuka & Signum
One of the 2 "delayed" packages arrived today (The other being the Revoltech EVA's which was shipped ~80 days ago. Can finally complain at HLJ in 10 days, lovely)
And this package being send.. 29 days ago.
With TAXES.
Anyhow, let's get on to the package.
These three boxes represent the.. Sega, I think. Melty Blood EX Figure: Sion Eltnam Atlasia, Figma Signum and Monthly EVA with mini Revoltech Asuka.
Let's take a closer look.
I LOVE YOU, MR. KAMMY!!I've been in love with Melty Blood for quite some time.
Sion's my favorite character and I use her most of the time in Melty Blood: Act Cadenza.
No matter how many people say she sucks, I still beat them up using her <3
Back shot. Those rings are of solid gold, I may add.
And obligatory pantyshot for the interested.
Who's your oneesama now?
Next up, Figma Signum.
While getting her in this pose I immediately realized the hand holding the scabbard is quite loose. As loose as you can imagine the wrist joints of Revoltech EVA 03 & 04 holding their shields, which immediately drop to the floor.
Sorta fixed it by leaning the hand on the glove-part of the arm. There's also some purple splatters on several of the hands, but no biggie.
Was quite surprised her skirt-cloak thing (It's popular. Archer has one as well!) isn't stuck to the body, but a piece you can remove if you want to rip her torso off. Which I'll refrain from.
Heck, I'm even too scared of removing Drossels "ponytails" due the risk of those fragile plastic joints breaking! Speaking of Drossel, her shoulder joints keep getting stuck too much. A comment I made while unpacking Signum was that it "might" have been better for that lil plastic wrap under the shoulderjoints to be done with Drossel as well. No idea if it might've worked though.
Her weaponry is also awesome, but you've seen those plenty of times. At least Saber has a sparring partner now, besides Mecha's, Giant Hyper Archer and her own alter ego.
And last, mini Revoltech Asuka.
She might be smaller than her fraulein oneesama, but she's a lot more poseable.
Though no swaps for the hands or the like. Rei should be arriving in another package which was shipped this week.
I dare ya to get your fraulein in this pose. Bet you can't, huh?
My own is currently not available, due muffins, mecha-fights and her left arm having been turned into a drill.
And a big group shot.
*Omake*
Len fits well on Sion's head :3
Edit!
*Omake #2*
You decide which side to look at. I'm shaking too much due hunger at the moment.
Back is Oneesama Asuka, Gun in one hand, doll in the other. Saving the day.
Front one is Imouto Asuka, flexible gunner.
I have actually been looking for this mini Revoltech Asuka in Japan but couldn't find it! Looks like I have to pay a visit to HLJ now, thanks for the lead.
Yup, HLJ was the only store I could find Monthly EVA at. They also got the Rei one.
Both should be in stock iirc.
Yeah, already placed an order for her along with some dollfie undies. No kidding about the only store that has it, I couldn't find it all day in Akihabara lol. And I was looking for it too, perhaps I was looking in the wrong places.
I'm not sure what size she was, but I saw one of the Revoltech (I think Fraulein) Asuka Figures in the store this evening as I was going out the door of the store where I get my anime/fugures.
Mini Asuka is a magazine exclusive (Well, can't really call this small booklet a magazine..) and she's packed in a small box. At a glance you wouldn't even know she's included due EVA 02 being shown over the whole thing (Like in my box overview, wrapped in plastic and only 2 small pictures on the side of the box has her shown). Fraulein Asuka is.. A lot easier to find ;)
Nice collection, by the way Sion's pantsu should be purple not white, the megahouse figure that I've got of her reveals purple colour.
I really like the megahouse one. My wallet doesn't agree, sadly. But this was a nice cheap alternative.
As for pantsu; white, purple/pink, blue/green (teal?) striped.. There's a lot of variations.
Since I don't have any frauleins to do that pose, what about my mechas to do so? XD
That Sion looks really nice. But damn, that SAL can take long. Good I decided to stick with EMS, even if it is a ripoff. I'm just the kind of guy that wants to have his packages yesterday ^^;
^^; I'm pretty sure the skirt can be removed without issue - that's the way it was with Nanoha, Fate, Hayate, the rest of the Nanoha line. The only issue is that it might leave paint marks behind when you try to get it back on.
Didn't have a problem with Drossel either, actually, which is either immensely lucky or just me not minding things much.
