[Ex-Figma 005] Nodoka Manabe

Have you passed your papers yet?

Another Ex-Figma here, Nodoka Manabe - Yui's childhood friend. The ever kind, school council president Nodoka who always look to our guys specially to Yui. Now, just like Ui - I got her together with Yui from a friend.

Rear Box

Now, this package includes 3 Papers found beneath the cardboard - Decals for the bonus Yui faceplate, Decal Guide and her Glasses guide because yes, it can be detached just add a little care since it's very fragile.

Out of the Box

Let's list what we should get aside from the 3 Papers -

• Nodoka Manabe
• Boy's Cap
• A badge like thing in her arm
• 2 Faceplate
• Bonus Yui Faceplate
• 8 Hands
• A Pair of Senior Rubber Shoes
• Stand
• Plastic

Front - wearing their usual uniform, with her glasses. Again it can be removed.

A close-up, see what really not good here is her default faceplate which is looking to the left from her perspective. the other facepalte though are cool: Serious face and That Sleepy like face. And an issue with the glasses can be found in which i think they are not positioned properly.

Wearing her boy's cap and badge, doesn't she looks oh so cute? I admit it, that this is the cutest Nodoka I have seen - I don't find her cute in the series.

Woah! Nodoka! be careful or you might step on your glasses!

Another Cute pose!

And a wild Yui Appears!

In the End, it was another plain Figma after all - the problem with Ex-Figma, they cost so much for being so plain. but considering you'll get an oh so cute Nodoka, and her Glasses and Boys Cap are worth the find - adding that you'll get an extra facepalte for Yui - this is much more worth it than Ex-Figma Ui.

And one more thing, I'm still hoping Goodsmile would still create a Sawako Chan Figma just to complete the Set. Ciao~

[Ex-Figma 004] Ui Hirasawa

Have you seen Onee-chan? Yui Onee Chan?!

The past month, I posted this Figma K-On Band Members. But of course, it would be complete without Ui Hirasawa - Yui's younger sister, classmate of Asunyan. Ui here is an Ex Figma - I have no idea where she was released but for sure though she is an expensive catch that I got cheap - thanks from a friend who helped me.

Silicon Container

Let's take the content one by one:

• Ui Hirasawa Figma
• 2 Bags - Assuming one for her and one for Yui
• 2 Extra Faceplates
• A pair of Junior shoes
• 7 Hands
• 1 Hand holding a castanet
• Stand
• Plastic Bag

Front - Similar to all figma, atleast her neck was not like Yui's neck which looks to far from the body.

Left - Her ponytail is detachable making her look like a boy in a girl's uniform.

More Castanets

Ui Holding her bag, and says "Hello!"

Ui and Yui finally together!

To wrap this all up, it was plainly a a figma with nothing more - what of the essence of having a figma is what accessories it has as gimmicks but since this is just a plain Ui figma with 2 bags and a castanet - it doesn't add any spice to it. The only Joy of it is seeing Figma Yui and Figma Ui together. Ciao~!

Figma 154: Kuroyukihime [School Avatar Version]

Kuroyukihime School Avatar version with Arita Haruyuki Piggy Avatar

A random figma I bought while I was visiting local shops. It was a habit of mine to just randomly buy toys that I found. Probably, this was one of the most gorgeous figma I held, aside from it being Kuroyukihime of Accel World but it is greatly sculpt and design. And the fact that it includes a Haruyuki Piggy Avatar makes it more awesome.

Kuroyukihime (黒雪姫, Kuroyukihime; Literally meaning "Princess Snow Black"; lit. Black Snow Princess) is one of the main characters in the Accel World series. She is the current leader of the Black Legion, Nega Nebulus and was formerly known as the Black King (黒王, Kuroō), but hid after defeating the former "Red King". Her biggest ambition is to reach level 10 and meet the creator of the Brain Burst game, but to accomplish that goal, she has to defeat five other level 9 users who just so happen to be "The Six Kings of Pure Color", the leaders of the six most powerful factions in the Brain Burst world.

Unlike the Figma Kuroyukihime Assault version, this was packaged in a Large Box coloured in neon pink butterflies in black background.

Time to open, ah! the smell of fresh figma still in it's silicon package! ah! so good!

Again, if your buying one - your package should contain a figma plastic bag, 6 set of extra hands, a stand and a manual. This is one of the must to check if your figma is authentic since this figma has bootlegs running in town.

Now inside, Kuroyukihime figma, with opened umbrella, 2 faceplates, a closed umbrella, butterfly wings, panty and Haruyuki Piggy Avatar

front - dressed in black, in a seductive gothic like dress.

And i just had to post this - who the hell took her skirt!

Hubbyte toy store held a Photography Contest for the month of February themed of course for the month of love, this was some of the pics in my Instagram entry. Winner was not announced yet, but since I already accepted my lose since I didn't put an effort to it I think it's already safe to post this.

In a final judgement, this figma was to feminine for me but thats also my reason why i think this is just to awesome! In maybe in the old figma articulation but trust, she's a beauty!
