Figma Izumi Konata Costume Play Ver. (Max Factory)

July 17, 2008

Alright~ Next in line is “Figma Izumi Konata Costume Play Ver.” by Max Factory ^^

konata

As most of you might have already known, this particular Figma figure is one of Wonder Festival 2008 Winter exclusive item, which means that you have to be at the event to get it. Luckily, Good Smile Company is kind enough to open a special pre-order sessions at their website just after the event ended, so to give chance to those who unable to attend, to get a hold of the exclusive figures ^^

As for me, I’m lucky enough to manage to get her, thanks to Arcenciel of SGCafe. Hopefully I’ll be able to do the same with the upcoming Wonder Festival 2008 Summer in August ^^

Back to topic, there’s really isn’t much I can say on Konata, except she’s just amazing, definitely worth all the trouble in getting her ^^ Another amazing quality of work, although some movement are a little bit limited because of her hair. Not much though ^^

As for accessories, there’s not much given compared to other Figma releases. Konata only comes with an extra face, and the usual pairs of Figma hands.

On with the shots~!!
