Alter 1/7 Takamachi Nanoha - Uniform Ver. (unboxing)

AmiAmi box! Customs kept it for a good long time this time.

AmiAmi paper! Recently they changed from a reddish color to this green.

School uniform Nanoha comes with Raising Heart in both staff and standby forms, an alternate hand to hold staff-form RH, requisite post-ribbon-exchange alternate hair ribbons, Yuuno-kun, and an alternate head with her hair down.

It's somewhat unusual for Alter figures to have so many options, and the matching Fate figure has none at all, not even hair ribbons.

Lots of parts means lots of instructions. All of the parts are very easy to change out.

The clamshell had none of those little wires holding it together that I hate so much, yay!

The pegs for her tails are quite long, so they do a good job of staying in when you want them to, but coming out when you want to change ribbons.

Still not a huge fan of stands with words on them, but it's all right.

Ferret form Yuuno.

"Standard" setup.

Nanoha has such a sweet face...

Fate ribbons and Device Mode Raising Heart.

Hair down alternate head!

For some reason I was expecting just the back half of her hair to come off, not for there to be two entire heads in the package.

One of my favorite parts of this outfit, her light green slip, is handled very well in this figure.

And her pantsu are the right color too! Take notes Kotobukiya.

Matching Fate figure from earlier this year.

I'm really running out of room on the shelves I have. Tried to buy a DETOLF when I was down in LA for AX, but they've been having some shipping issues and most stores are out of them in the US.
