Follow UsThe biggest question that comes to mind while gawking at this figure is… Did I really buy this thing because of artistic craftsmanship? Answer? LOL-no. But, I shall be doing this review anyway because, well, you guys to gawk too. There is not anything astounding on this figure that makes her a must-buy. I will tell you that ahead of time. She IS from the Shuffle! series which is one of my favorite to date and couldn’t really find top quality from the characters in figure design from the show.
REMEMBER: CLICK THE PICTURES FOR LARGER, MORE DETAILED PHOTO!
Comes in a tiny box.
Came nicely wrapped.. meaning she SHOULDN’T have many defects or shipping damages right? Also.. see that in the back? WTF is that?
What a strange way to tie her up.. I mean come on!
She has a pretty face :) The artist caught her expression quite well I think.
More of a full shot here. hard to get a focus point on her due to how much she is bending over O_o
Her bow. You can obviously see the lining on the head where the 2 pieces meet. They didn’t even TRY to hide it.
Her sleeve/skirt strap. If you look closely, you can see some minor defects in paint along her inner sleeve. Not that big of a deal really
Are those specs on those boobs? Tsk tsk. I don’t dig the freckles. More minor defects :(
Moving on down.. Yes, we are getting closer..
First! gotta stop and see her.. forearm, right?
Pantsuuu. Yeh.. now do you see why I said what I said in the beginning? There really is no other point in getting this figure. No point hiding it either. It is just an awesome booty shot.
They didn’t put any defects on that booty did they? Did they think she would be put on display with her ass facing forward? Perhaps that is the point of front defects?
Smokin’ legs, Asa
Nice .. slippers? Base is not too bad.
Conclusion? Basically, taken from when Rin walks in on Asa in the bathroom as she is pulling down her panties.. But don’t think of her going the bathroom for gods sake.. Unless you are into that of course. But really.. The only point to get this figure is her back-shot. She doesn’t have superior detail anywhere else really. Not saying her panties have superior detail.. err.. yeah. Anyway, I think she still looks pretty good. The craftsmanship may not be top notch, but I think they captured the scene in 3d very well.
