[FREEing] Makoto Nanaya Review!
and so, literally a mere few minutes ago, Makoto sneaks her way into my room!
it's an interesting story to tell, as i have since lost much interest in Blazblue and was even considering canceling my order for Makoto. fortunately for me, im glad i didn't - she's a delight and let's just jump into the unboxing!

so here she is in her box. it was surprisingly smaller than i expected!

Makoto in the plastic shell. notice there is nothing to assemble apart from setting onto the base. she's strictly just set-and-display.

and finally, Makoto in full. joining us in this review is Noel, excited and happy to see her friend.

the painting on the tail is lovely. the promo pics of Makoto, to me, made the tail seem much bigger. in fact, it was part of the reason i was thinking of canceling the order - i didn't have much shelf space.
luckily, she's sitting snug on the shelf.

a look at Makoto from Noel's level.

i was a little disappointed there was absolutely nothing on the base. it's just an orange plastic circle. not even a name or the BlazBlue logo?

the paintwork is lovely, as well as the sculpt. you can see her energetic personality coming through despite her relatively contained pose. she's just ready for battle!

here's her "uniform". the colors really stick out, especially against the red walls of my room. the colors match the fall season as well!

size comparison to Dizzy. she's not that much taller than Dizzy (minus her wings). this is good, because i was before concerned about her being a big figure. im happy to know she fits in well with the rest of my statues (give or take a few)

compared to a figma now. she's approximately the size of two figmas standing on top of each other.

i like this shot.
i also like Makoto now! i was worried before about not having enough space and was questioning how much i cared for the character, but now i need not worry. she's a great addition to my collection and if you're a BlazBlue fan, Makoto would be a great choice to have!

OBJECTION!
There is a serious contradiction to the above statements about Miss Nanaya!

OBJECTION!
Your Honor, the Defense is objecting for the sake of objecting! He has no evidence to back up his claims that my client was providing a false review!

Koyomi Araragi: Amateur Attorney










Had mine for a few day's and wow she really is a great fig. What neat is that her head is mounted on a ball joint so you san not only twist but also tilt her head slightly also.
She's a great character design and its my first time seeing an animal derived fig that is not a cat or rabbit for once.
oh, i did not know about the head poseability. that would explain the plastic in her neck. this adds a point for customization, i say!
