Otoha Karas

Posted by YuKi-To [www] 

Otoha Karas is an expensive figure for its size, but its details, poseability and awesomeness is worth the price!
Fortunately, I got him for 9400yen (retail: 11800yen) at a Hobby shop in Ikebukuro... a few weeks back when I was in Tokyo ^^
Max Factory has done a great job on him and it's probably my fave action figure!

These photos were taken at the same time and place as Kodomut's Narika shoot. We met up to take night shots of our figures. This is my first attempt at night shoots though and I find it quite fun! ^^

should be able to guess which figure's pose Karas is mimicking ^^

I can never afford her, so a similar pose will do =P

    Man the craftsmanship was superb on this one. Saw it at the shops during the weekend. My friend was like scratching his pants just hoping he has enough cash to buy it, but ended up he didn't. Yeah it's quite pricy but if you're a HUGE fan I say for or it.

    awesome figure and awesome shoot, especially like this one image ID#10330. I was tempted to get him when my local hobby store brought in some stock but someone bought it first before I make my decision

    Great photoshoot. Crisp, clear pictures, cool poses and a good location. Just... great :D
    I've been drooling over this figure myself. I'll probably get one when I get a job --> money ^^;

    That first picture you use for the title is definitely the most dramatic. Great to see something a bit different from the usual here!
