Box and Contents - The box is brown and looks goth, one reason I want it more. The Package includes Haruhi, short hair head, 1 faceplate for Haruhi, Bonus faceplate for Moe, stand, figma plastic bag, 8 hands, school bag and a sleeping bag - yes a sleeping bag.

Turnaround - Her uniform is black that makes it look cool, and her hair is look that suits her that make her more cooler.

A close up, even in her angry face - she still looks cute.

Haruhi inside her Sleeping Bag.

See, she even hass a closed eyed faceplate. Sleep tight Haruhi~

She looks cool...

...and cooler.

Final words, the Figma was awesome - the extra moe faceplate is a must have only for Haruhi Collectors, but they could have atleast added a smiling haruhi faceplate herself. One more thing though, It's hard to put her in the Sleeping bag - but the worth when you see her inside and she looks like a cocoon ~ so kawaii!

[Bandai] - MG 1/100 MSN-04 Sazabi Ver. Ka

The MSN-04 Sazabi (aka Sazabi, MSN-04) is a mobile suit that appears in Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack. It is piloted by Char Aznable.

Yes, thanks to a good friend Deniece- I got to see the Sazabi ver. Ka face to face and get to hold it too. I don't have this kit but I get to see it anyway. An enormous kit design by Katoki, filled with gimmicks that will blow every builders mind. Although it was harder to move and pose - delicate hands required.

Box is big, you might want to take a cab if you're getting one. - if you don't have a car though.

Turnaround - details are good even in normal mode. Bigger than the Sinanju Ver. Ka especially if decals are perfectly placed. Colour Scheme are red and orange so better not confuse yourself to think that it was red alone.

Height Comparison - On top, Left is a Perfect Grade WIng Zero Custom. Although yes the PG Wing Zero is Smaller than a usual PG but we can see that the Sazabi is enormous indeed. Middle, MG 1/100 OO-Gundam, being both 1/100 in scale OO looks so small - imagine a 1/100 Victory 2 on it's side.... On the Bottom, 1/144 Sazabi - aren't they cute? they look like Father and Son. Now, for people who are wondering why - Sazabi was built with a Psycommu System that requires a large subsystem same reason why every UC Series have Giant-Like units.

Not the Gimmick - Funnler Container opens and some part of the body like side skirt, shoulder, back skirt. Every Figure in the hand moves too.

A Close-up in the head~

Detailing is awesome if you ask me, just look at those.

Fully Transsformed Sazabi - fully opened gimmicks. not bad eh?

Weapons - A Large Shield, a rifle [Note: an extra cannon can be attached under it, sold separately], another rifle, large sword, 2 swords.

Now, in the kit - there are still a Char Aznable Mini Statue and a Cockpit [The Cockpit that Amuro held in the movie] - but my friend said he don't intend to build it for now.

Overall, the kit was awesome - Only Issues found is the delicate handling when posing especially when on it's fully transformed mode. :3

Figma #169: Super Sonico

Super Sonico in a cute, balancing pose - Seriously, the first time I handled a figma that can balance in 1 Foot.

Super Sonico is a mascot belonging to game software company Nitroplus, and is part of a media franchise spanning various music products, manga, computer and video games, and an anime television series by White Fox that began airing from January 6, 2014.

Sonico is a fictional character created by Tsuji Santa of Nitroplus. Her debut appearance began on 14 October 2006 as the mascot for Nitroplus' annual live music festival event "Nitro Super Sonico", which took place at Shiba Park in Minato-KU.[1] Nitroplus was initially mainly focused on the creation of visual novel games, however since 2000 have also held their music festival each year.

Sonico is depicted as a moe-type, busty teenage girl with pink-coloured hair, donning her signature headphones. Various different artists choose to depict her in their own specific style, whilst generally keeping her most trademark traits, namely her headphones, hair colour and large bust. She plays the role of a gravure idol, musician and college student, is canonically 18 years of age, and is the vocalist and guitarist of the fictional band First Cosmic Velocity (第一宇宙速度 Daiichi Uchū Sokudo?);[2] the other members of the band are bassist Suzu Fujimi (富士見 鈴?) and drummer Fuuri Watanuki (綿抜フウリ?), both characters originally from Axanael, a 2010 eroge by Nitroplus.

Sonico is voiced by Ayano Yamamoto[citation needed] within the games and the 2014 television anime but credited as Super Sonico.

Box comes in pink design that matches Super Sonico's Hair - package includes Sonico, 1 Stand, 1 Figma Bag, 8 hands, 2 faceplates, a hoodie and a guitar.

As you can see Sonico's design is a blue fatigue furred hoodie, She comes in pink hair, a headset and yes a tail. Her shirt is printed with a cat, no it's not a tiger. She is wearing a skit, when I thought it was a short and yes, all of us can notice she has a big thing in her chest.

Sonico in her Hoodie - to change her hoodie, simply pull off her head then replace it with the hoodie.

Hoodie - front view

And peace ~ :3

And see how cute she is? she is right? right?

Lastly, the reason I bought her is because of her guitar - She is now the 4th Guitarist in my Figma Collection

Now, if ever your wandering how is the Figma - the figure wasn't half bad although joints are the old joint decide comapring to Miku 2.0 who may be hard to articulate but has safer inner joint in the chest. Cute thing though, she can easily balance because of her large boots. :3
