Nice, I see some nipple though >:(
i believe the english term for Iro Utsur is "paint transfer"
Well on my Shunya Yamashita Mirei-San figure a little dot of paint was removed from her socks because of the shoe that I tried to put in place a little bit to vigorously...
since your color transfer is from her cloches to her body i think that your suggestion of sealing the rater that the body will work, but you should do it light and with several coats them if the body paint is not as correctly adhered the it might be needed to do it also on the body I recommend a matte varnish. I hope that helps. greetings.
Ouch, I feel sorry for the other guy, the rub off on yours is almost nothing compared to his. Maybe you can keep the clothes off most of the time, or possibly attach paper or something absorbent on the inner clothes if you don't feel like using thinner.
i have a question y are oil added in and also does the color inside clothing start melting so meaning if u leave it as it is--> colour start ruining the model? (or did color start attaching to model because u remove it?) thx jsut need ot make sure
I was affraid I would encounter the same problem with my latest figure, but I think kotobukiya found a way around this issue by making it out of clear plastic, and only painting the outside. Though it looks like that review's figure's clothes melted onto it. I'd say just buy another figure. She does look great though. I've wanted Ekidona for a while, but I'll have to wait until I move out for something that ero ^^;
Truly sad that the paint comes off and the figure leans...my room would be its natural enemy since it's usually hot, especially in the summer...maybe if they fix it by putting on some sort of finish and re-release it (sorry if I sound weird, but I'm kinda new to this), this would be one to look out for...oh, yea the tissue idea was nice...
Hmm, Danny, maybe you can do like what I do to my Reina & Echidna. Just paste masking tape/any thin tape to the inner part of the clothing (cut them to match the proportion of the clothing).
It seems that this problem is getting more prevalent with figures with cast-off. Guess that's the trade off for buying something cast off figure. She sure looks nice, though ^^
Me want more Queens Blade, you guys are right, guess thats the onlu drawback when buying cast off, in exchange, almost all of the cast off figures are excelent pieces of art
There I can officially say "nosebleed". This is the type of figure I like (Do I sounded like a perv' just now? Gomen!). About the figure rubbing off, you can pretend it is suntan oil... Hopefully your case is not as dramatic as the guy's you mentioned. This figure not supposed to be shown in her birthday suit? That's dumb as that kind of accident should not happen. Where is the quality check team when we need them? Great figure for my favorite character (at least in appearance) in Queen's Blade.
*nosebleeding* ...I love this figure ^^, the sculpt for me is consider good and can strip....
Wow, one of the nicest Ive seen yet. Its done really well and the quality is really sweet
"not supposed to be displayed in her birthday suit" is a lame excuse. if it wasn't, why make it cast-off in the first place? sales gimmick i reckon? but i do say, she's sculpted very nicely. i never got around to get a queen's blade figure. reina, nowa, cormill and ekidona's sculpt wasn't that good IMHO. menace has a nice sculpt but that dopey look on her face is O.o?, lol... all in all she seems like a good buy danny. hope i can get my hands on her over here. she seems pretty pricey tho. (from the preoder list i got frm my local toy shop)
I don't have any cast off figures, and the figures I have are still on box, so I really don't know about paint transfering and stuff like that. Ok, I'll be honest. I only have like 5 really small figures (came with Animagazines), and 2 medium sized. But I can imagine humidity and heat can cause that. It all depends on the paint job and figure material. Unfortunatelly, for some paint jobs, it's just impossible to use sealants strong enough to endure too much heat and humidity. Here were I live, in summer days, if I sit for too long on the sofa my skin almost peels off when I stand up... and there are even days that some of the asphault on the street melts... not hard to imagine paint transfering on delicate paint jobs on figures.
Why not just precisely cut some thin clear tape and apply it to the parts that touch the figure? The tape is smooth and if done correctly will be totally hidden! Please keep in mind that I have not actually tested this method before since i dont own any cast of figures. BTW Great figure! I liked that tissue paper!
Test comment
That's a really heavy Iro Utsuri in that guy's Tomoe.. Lucky yours ain't that bad ^^ it's a really well sculpted figure I must say.. Seeing it I might probably have to add her on my buy list xD
http://www.glad.com/plasticwrap/pressnseal.php Or any kind of cellophane. This should solve the painting rubbing off, its thin enough to not interfere with the cast off feature You could go radical and remove the inside paint, or apply a sealant..
I had a similar problem with my Death Note Amane Misa, the Skirt rub paint off of the pantsu underneath revealing the skin tone :(
I love the Queen`s Blade girls, again. Tomoe isn`t my favorite(Reina and Risty make me mad), but this and Erina are gorgeous... The problem with paint rubbing... With PVC figures, is hard to see, only with time and dust fault. The problem is a real pain with resin kits. Take care of your cutties, please :)
ahooooooooo!!!! that is sexy!!! the first tym i saw queen's blade miko, damn!!! even in long clothes fetish stuff is shown... but i wnder does it have a manga available now?
is there any way to clean off any of the paint that rubbed off onto the figure?
sexy.......
@Danny: I have noticed that you are covering private parts and boobs of the figurines when reviewing. Why are you doing it. It's normal boobs to be seen imho. On the web we can see lots of bare breasts online (on the "normal" websites), magazines tv commercials. It's not considered pornography so why you placing DC emblem on every nudish figurine? Is it against the law in Japan or something? Just curious.
Kinda makes me wish I was an anime figure, or the developer of the ultimate virtual reality simulator, which is probably what I'm gonna have to do if I want to make people's dreams come true.
Hey Danny I just got this figure and it's my first cast off...any tips on how to cast off the cloths smoothly? I feel like I might tear off her arms when I try to take off the sleeves and it's making me nervous. Thanks in advance...
Nice Figure!
man that is so sexy...
Lovely eyes... I joined DC.com so that I could look at those eyes... Just kidding~
