Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm pleased to announce that Needa Schuetlitch is full cast off ^o^
So I've been spending a lot of time with Good Smile lately and was in their offices again yesterday.
Whenever I'm with the Good Smile folks, I always seem to utter the name "Needa" in each sentence I spoke for some reason.

They concluded that the only way to remedy my symptom was to pull out the master cast copy and let me play about with it ^o^
Just a quick reminder that the final version will look slightly different from this.
I couldn't remove the clothing on the back for the master cast without breaking her ^^;
The final version will obviously have fully removable clothing though.
Isn't she the only person that you'd love to be stabbed by?
Hypnotic eyes. Yamashita Shunya is the man!
Was a great surprise to find out about the castoff functionality - her clothes didn't look removable at the Wonfes show.
Yum.
She got a huge sexy gun too.
Some of the bits n pieces that come with her.
Needa should be going up for pre-order next month.
Expct to see a *LOT* more from Good Smile and Max Factory right here at dannychoo.com ^^
First time here?

Can you explain: "full cast-off"? Does this mean that even the gorgeous purple thingies come off??
that would be nose-bleed indeed!

Saw this in one of your earlier posts and thought about letting it pass since I already have a figure with the "girl with the big gun" theme. Now I've changed my mind. I hope they'll sell it over here! (^_^)x

Hey, I was wondering if you knew how the sculptors at GoodSmile were hired and if any of them have gone to art school or did they all just learn from books?

The cast-off on figures in a very interesting(and fun GIHAGIHA)option, but not esential, I think...

Needa is simply amaizing. Can`t wait to get her, maybe the best figure of the Shunya Yamashita series at the moment..?

I think the problem with a lot of castoffs is that they rely on this for sales. Needa looks great though! I was never really into figures before going to this site. I have to say I prefer her with the massive hand cannon. So... what does she do with that hand when its not holding a weapon?

Use puchi blurbs instead or post link to otakurls - please ;-)

Sbebiwan,
Me neither!

Dragun,
Cover her eyes?

GHOST,
Will do ^^

Gerbera04g,
They vary. I know a few who took no classes etc and seemed to be gifted with sculpting.

Wildarms,
If you can guarantee to sell 5000 units then I will ask ^^

nirodha35,
Two meanings. 
1:Everything can come off.
2:Everything not including underwear can come off.

I think it's something about skin tone and lips, but this looks to be the closest figure yet to Shunya's style.

As far as cast off's go, I appreciate them, but they always leave me wanting to buy multiples.

Man, the shading (or blushing?) on her face just brings it out so much. Hopefully it'll be there on the mass produced figure. Her underwear is also pretty sweet!

Wow, that figure was kinda ok when i first saw it, but for the first time ever, a cast off has convinced me its worth getting! 
She looks awesome in that lingerie - nice and classy, detailed and the colour goes with her hair. Id probably keep her like that, though her uniform is pretty damn snazzy.
I also prefer the knife pose too, as big guns on chicks bore me these days.

This one has just become a definate buy. Ill be keeping my eyes on my regular shop for pre-orders appearing!


Nice to see youre getting chummy with GoodSmile. Stepping ever closer to the mirai figure?

Wow, I liked it before when you showed it to us at Wonfest but now....  yeah, I think i'm going to have really get this one now. It'll be my first figure with so much cast off. Could you tell us if it comes with two sets of the outfit? or will there be two versions the torn up distressed one and the clean and neat one? decisions decisions....

i foresee many collectors will probably buy 2. display 1 with clothes on and 1 without. 

for me, i'll buy 1. hmm... i can't decide whether to pose her with or without clothes. decision decision decision. ('~')

hmm she looks really awesome already but!  Call me shallow or perverted, but I'm a little disappointed that she doesn't show as much skin/undergarments  as the other figures when her clothes are tattered!  lol

It would have been neat if instead of the bottom part of her shirt being ragged, if maybe her shirt were slashed open instead, showing a little bit of cleavage.

In any case I still have the figure preordered!

Being from the US, i fully appreciate the "cast off" feature, our country is so uptight about this kind of stuff.
I think a womans body is a thing of beauty and i wish i could find more statues and such here that show the nude female form but all we have are horrible looking resin figures and so-so looking statues.
I am also an artist so i appreciate the work that went into making the beautiful anime figures that i have been collecting for a while now and no, i have not counted how many i have so far.

how do you tell if a figure can be 'cast off'

I wouldn't want to pull at my own figures to determine for myself, for fear of unrepairable damage
