Figma Takamachi Nanoha Barrier Jacket Ver. (Max Factory)

June 20, 2008

As promised, here it is, the review for “Figma Takamachi Nanoha Barrier Jacket Ver.” by Max Factory ^^

nanoha

Figma Nanoha was released earlier last month on May 24th, 2008, and is my 4th Figma figure that I acquired. Well, just like previous Figma releases, she’s another great Figma figure to collect. The joints are solid for posing, which makes her really easy to do some extreme posing.

Although there are some problems with the figure. I don’t know if these applied to you guys (those who already owned Figma Nanoha), but the front hair keeps falling off, and can’t keep a firm hold of it. The hands are also quite difficult and hard to replace.

As for accessories, You get the usual 4 extra pair of hands, 1 extra Face & Hair, and also an extra Raising Heart Buster Mode, in which you can switch around. It also comes with 1 pair of “Axel Fins”, which then you can equipped it under her feet.

Paint job and details were still great, even for an action figure. Either way, Figma is still worth getting ^^

Anyway, on with the shots!!

Anyway, that ends my Figma Nanoha review~ Actually I want to take more shots, but Figma can be really addictive ^^; You can also view another great review of Figma Nanoha here by Foo-Bar-Baz

I’ll most likely do Chuchu Astram next. So look forward to it~( ^ _ ^ )/

This new 1/7 scale figure of “Takami Rin” from the Lyrical Lyric series, will be available this coming September 2008 by Solid Theater, and will be retailing for 6,000 Yen. Hobby Search is taking pre-orders for her as of today.

Never heard of the series, but looks like an eroge series to me ^^; Still, Nice looking figure though. Her swimsuit can also be casted off, if you guys wondering~( ^ _ ^ );

Taki Corp’s Nagi Reservation Starts!!

This new 1/8 scale figure of “Sanzenin Nagi” from Hayate the Combat Butler series, will be available this coming July 2008 by Taki Corporation, and will be retailing for 3,980 Yen. Hobby Search is taking pre-orders for her as of today.

This is the 3rd Hayate figure to be released by Taki Corp, with Maria and Hinagiku as 1st and 2nd. Quite cheap even for a 1/8 scale figure. Maybe because she’s short~( ^ _ ^ );
