Probably the cutest figure in my collection.
GoodSmile and Max Factory finally release the figure that I've been waiting months for - am pleased to tell you that she looks exactly as we saw her in previous events.
Fauna from the eroge Megachu has the POLO system installed - in this case meaning that the lace and white dress are removable.

Paint and sculpt work is absolutely fantastic.
The inside of the dress on the upper half of the body has no paint so no worries about paint rubbing off on her skin unlike Tomoe. However, her skin may start to rub off on the clothing if not careful - tips at the end of this article.

A few modifications recommended - cut the top of the lace skirt or the paint around her panties may start to rub off.
Make a slit in the lace top in the back of the neck - or paint around her neck may start to rub off too. Her hair covers this so you cant see the slit.
File down this bit or you'll have to tug on Fauna quite a lot for when you want to play cast off.
Recently released is this Good Smile 1/8 scale Haruka Amami bikini figure.

My figure is somewhere over the Pacific right now, so hopefully I've have it in my hands in a couple days. Thanks for the recommendations on the modifications. I'll take a look at my figure and see if I need to do them, though I don't really plan on playing cast off that much. Fauna's just going to end up sitting in my cabinet. ;)

Still waiting for mine to arrive. Looks great.
(ID #67406) Posted on 2007/12/20 01:39
As usual, great photos. Nice, you just made me desire for a Fauna figurine =X
(ID #67407) Posted on 2007/12/20 02:32
I just received my Fauna in the mail yesterday. Super cute! The modifications aren't necessary for me, because well, I don't plan on putting the clothes back on it. XD
(ID #67408) Posted on 2007/12/20 02:32
Me-"Wanna play POLO?" Gf-"Whaaat?" She looks fine Danny-o, enjoy your Fauna. Keep your milk in your fridge!

she's a very well made figure indeed. it's rare to see similarities between the prototype casts and the actual mass produced ones ^^ but i'm not sure if i'm getting this. i don't know about you guys but she has this dopey kinda look on her face, lol!~ >__

Uh...is this the same figure in that nasty business with Archer involving him slicing off her clothes? Nevertheless, WHOEVER HAS THIS IS TRULY HAPPY xD

(ID #67431) Posted on 2007/12/20 11:55
Is really cute,and the pose is graceful, but I dunno, maybe I`ll get her if see around...

Definitely one of the cutest figures I've seen this year. I wouldn't mind getting her, but her price is way of my budget :(
(ID #67433) Posted on 2007/12/20 12:47
Otherwise fantastic, however (opinion incoming!) her face looks a bit retarded, no offence or anything, but it seems vacant enough to land her in a special education class. ^^ *dons flamesuit*
(ID #67435) Posted on 2007/12/20 13:54
Sakari, I'd say "positively surprised". Still her facial expression does not attract me at all.

Wow! Nice detailing on the pantsu~ Overall, i find it quite appealing. But the face does look odd from certain angles
(ID #67438) Posted on 2007/12/20 14:58
This one looks good... Better than the other one by... Alter? Anyway Fauna is not on my buy list...
(ID #67439) Posted on 2007/12/20 16:14
Everything
Nice. I liked to one from Alter better (cuter), so I canceled this MaxFactory version. Maybe if it weren't the holiday season and having to spend money on other people, I would have doubled up on Fauna. ^.^

Neat review Danny, I got my Fauna on it's way to my door step ^_^
(ID #67442) Posted on 2007/12/20 16:24
Cute but not for me, great tips though. Seeing Fauna bukkaked was interesting though.

(ID #67444) Posted on 2007/12/20 16:59
@Danny! You cut her in half! lol, shes cute, I would buy it, but I dont think I could convince my gf that the castoff is acceptable. What excuse did you use Danny, research?
(ID #67445) Posted on 2007/12/20 17:06
Student, Photographer, Paintballer,
Yay for Fauna! @DRAGUN just say to the gf, "You wouldn't understand . . ." I haven't tested that phrase anywhere yet but it sounds like it'll work, maybe.
(ID #67446) Posted on 2007/12/20 17:30
@Jonny Boy, Lol. I dont know what women you date, but I KNOW that this wont work with any woman I know. Unless you like sleeping alone.
(ID #67447) Posted on 2007/12/20 17:46
Awesome review, Danny! I got mine 5 days ago, and I'm really happy I decided to skip Alter's version to get this one.
(ID #67448) Posted on 2007/12/20 19:56
She is cute, but not on my want list. I love the sheer underclothes though ^^
(ID #67452) Posted on 2007/12/20 20:39
syrix, you do surprise me at times with comments like this (My mind is still blocked at "bukkake? WTF enjoys this?!"). I was also wondering if you were sarcastic or not there. ^^
(ID #67453) Posted on 2007/12/20 20:43
She's cute no doubt about it, but I'm not to sure about the whole completely naked look. But still it's a must have if I could only find it!!

High School Graduate... Now what?
Wow, I gernerally avoid and tend to dislike cast-offs, but Fauna is a want. I think it's probably because of she reminds of Milfieulle. Good catch, DC.
(ID #67715) Posted on 2007/12/24 06:08
I was on the fence w/ this one. But those pics are tipping me over da line. And I'll grab Fauna if I can find it from a domestic retailer.

Mine arrived about 15 min. ago and she's just too cute. I've done away with the lace stuff altogether, now I just need to file down the joint somewhat to do the castoff easier

I love her. I want her. SOOO MUCH. She is one of the only figures I would ever consider spending more than £50 on. (In the UK prices are HIGH) Fumie from Edleweiss is another I would gladly splash for. But Fauna... oh how I want her... I wouldn't undress her, she's cute just the way she is!!!

Just ordered her from Hobby Fan, can't wait till she gets here!!

Just got her in today and i gotta say you were not kidding about how hard it was to remove her clothes! She's still a great figure though!

Thank you very much for sharing tips about how to combat accessories rubbing off paint on other parts of the figure. I am now more cautious about cast-off-ables. :D
