Shueisha Shirayuki Mizore Figure
マイワイフ
As you might've guessed, she's my favorite anime character ever, and this it the figure that I've been wanting even before I started collecting figures. She's been long since discontinued and continues to be super rare. She goes for about 300-500 USD on ebay.
I got her off Yahoo Japan Auction using GOODY-JAPAN. Easy to use service and there's good correspondence. Final price-tag was around 144 USD, which definitely isn't as horrible as going through ebay.
Honestly, she's definitely not the most detailed/high-quality figure I have; paint-job is messy, she doesn't fit well into her base, and the sculpt doesn't allow for good angles. However, I'm such a Mizore fan that I love this figure anyways. The angles she does have represent Mizore very well and that's what really matters. She looks gorgeous alongside the rest of my R+V figures.
I kinda wish it would snow here in the North West.
I'm still experimenting a bit more with my Lumix LX5. I'm also messing around with the setup as opposed to the usual mini photo studio I set up on my desk, and I'm doing some post-processing as well.
R+V figure collection complete. I might consider Kokoa, but her face looks messed up; dunno if that's a defect on some or that's how all of them are. Omote Moka might get her own photo-shoot as well, but I think she has even less angles than Mizore.
Mizore is on my favourite anime characters list. Rider obviously tops it. XD
ah I love Mizore!!! and nice collection of rosario vampire figures you got there^^
Like R + V.... Very N ice :3
MIZORE! :D
She's like my favorite character.
She's so cool! ;)
One thing that looks kinda off to me is her skirt, because isn't supposed to be
a really darkish yellowish color with yellow (or gold) stripes or something...^^;
But even so, it still looks pretty nice and it's definitely on my wants list.
Oh wow o_O, I never noticed that about her skirt. I just looked up an image of her in the manga though and it's a little bit closer to the color here, but idunno.
