Wow.... i can't believe I got my 3rd figurine so fast....
For some weird unknown reason, me and Clef decided to go Sunshine plaza to buy stuff... Its probably because he wanted a personalized Thumb drive like mine
Anyway... we then headed over to the figurine shop at Marine Square where i purchased my 2nd Saber!!!

Well, this brings my figurine count to 3! Maybe I'll decided to buy the Melissa Seraphy later on when I'm richer....

YES, TODAY I WENT TO COLLECT MY JAPAN IMPORTED FIGURINES FROM JAPAN!!! And they cost a bomb, so don't ask....
The Packages
Wonder why its so expensive to import something? Its because of the size of the packages...
Its for protection I guess...
But the things inside aren't that big....
My 1st Anime Figurines
Figurine 1
Name: Yuki Nagato
Scale: 1/8
Height: About 190mm
(that means Yuki suppose to be 152cm in "real life")
Company: Max Factory
Sculpted by: Shinji Koshinuma
Pre-painted
The level of detail is great, and the colors are deep and nice.
It comes in 2 configurations!!
Yuki in school uniform with brown jacket:
The different sections fit together perfectly and tightly enough, but if feels like if I separate the different parts too many times, they might break or bend....
And this is Yuki in school uniform with witch costume and wand:
I like the witch one better. The cloak is really nice and detailed. The hat casts a shadow over Yuki's face making the figurine look even more awesome.
Next...
Figurine 2
Name: Saber (or Arturia Pendragon)
Scale: 1/8
Height: about 185mm
(Saber suppose to be 154cm but the figurines a bit too small....)
Company: Kotobukiya
Sculpted by: 小川陽三
Pre-painted
Finally got a Saber figurine... the 1st of another 3 or 4 i plan to buy...
This figurine has one of the best Saber faces in the market (that are pre-painted)
The paint job is really nice, and the material seems more solid compared to the Yuki.
As much as I love Saber, I must admit I like the Yuki figurine better. But no regrets buying the Saber anyway. The face is really good, especially when her hair casts a shadow over her eyes. The sword is also well designed and detailed but its bent when u look from the side...
Well... thats about it for my 1st 2 figurines.
This could be the beginning of a expensive hobby...
Btw... the printer u see in the background is non-usable... so i can't print stuff....
