Another new entry by Griffon Enterprises ^^ I think this was shown during Wonder Hobby Festival 2008 Final.

This nice looking 1/7 scale figure of “Uesugi Kenshin” from Sengoku Lance series is scheduled for August 2008 release, and will be up for 9.800 Yen retail price. Hobby Search is taking reservation for her as of today.

It’s expensive alright ^^; I wonder if the final product supposed to be like that. It’ll be a much better looking figure with colours on though~( ^ _ ^ );

I have to say, one of the nicest looking Kanu~( ^ _ ^ )/

Saber Alter 1/8 Scale (Solid Theater)

May 22, 2008

I’ve decided to start off with the review on “Saber Alter 1/8 Scale” by Solid Theater ^^

This figure was released on May 13th, 2008. It was originally scheduled for March 2008 release, so it’s quite a delay alright ^^;

A little bit of info on the character ^^ Saber Alter or Dark Saber, only appears during the game “Heaven’s Feel” storyline. Supposedly she was possessed by Angra Mainyu which transformed her onto the darkside, and also at the same time became Sakura‘s servant. She was later defeated by Emiya Shirou.

I never played the game though ( > _ < )

To tell the truth, I think the wait is worth it. This is probably the most coolest, fearsome, and gruesome Dark Saber up to date. The quality and the details are great. I like the way they painted and did the Dress Armor. It really shows that sense of weight and power.

The figure comes with the “Dark Excalibur” and an extra head with the Faceplate on, which you can switch around. As for the stand, it was made so that it can be connected with “Dark Sakura”, which is going to be released soon ^^

On with the shots~
