Got a few figures throughout the summer but havent been able to take any pics outside because of the heat - both me and the figure would have melted ^^;
Its much cooler now (still warm during the day) meaning that I can start taking pics outside once again.
First up is Sonsaku Hakufu.

Griffon are getting better at making PVC figures but are not quite there yet. While this figure looks good in general, there are a few quirks here n there.
For a start, there are huge circles around her B-Chiku (whats B-chiku?) which defeat the point of having her bra cast off in the first place.
Stick her in a dark corner however and you wont notice the circles much.

The paint work is good although mine came with some scars around her bottom.
Could be my imagination but I could have sworn her bra was much more pinkier when I got her - maybe loosing color? Maybe my eyes going weired after looking at her eyes for too long?
This one added to the wallpaper pool.

Remember folks that you can use the Nose Bleed function only if you have been registered for more than 14 days.
For those who don't know, the Nose Bleed function enables you to remove the Mirai mark where your nose would immediately start to bleed.

It could be 7 days - I forget ^^

Thought it would be interesting to discuss why most folks don't make a fuss when they see stuff like the iron lady in public, and yet like to comment and send me mail about the "NSFW" photos of naked figures on this site.
Both Sonsaku and the iron lady have been sculpted by hand and are naked - the iron lady is actually full frontal naked. Sonsaku does indeed have bigger eyes but should that make her more NSFW than the statue in public?
Some may say that Sonsaku is the sexiest out of the two but shouldn't that be a matter of taste?
Is it OK for the iron lady to be in public because she is made of iron just like the mermaid statue in Denmark?
Or is it because Sonsaku has been painted?
Was just thinking about all those oil paintings of naked women in galleries and the statues of naked men in Italy - could be because the iron lady is considered as "art" ? But I personally consider figures like Sonsaku to be works of art too.
Would you mind 1/1 scale statues of naked Sonsaku placed in public in your region?
Do you already have naked statues in your region?
All questions which could generate interesting responses - whats your take?
BTW, new readers will notice the "View this image without the Mirai mark" link - you can only use it if you have been registered for more than 14 days (I think - I forgot the settings for that feature ^^;).

I could have got this figure but since I'm low on budget and I'm aiming now only towards Gundam kits I'm putting apart figure collecting. Can't wait for the MG Unicorn btw

Nice figure. I like the pose and the hair, but its not on my buy list. I guess im getting bored with the countless nudey IkkiTousen figures. I prefer Ryomou anyway :-P Those lines around the nips are really poor! They look like stickers, or a botched boob job! Is that the one with the squashy boobs? Maybe its a side effect of the moulding process...?

Awesome picures Danny, I need a good camera.
(ID #59187) Posted on 2007/10/11 22:29
It's not the Camera dude. It's Danny's awesome pad. Having a balcony like that is great for taking pics.

Its pretty nice but still I wouldn't get it. Its way too distracting. I wouldn't be able to concentrate on my work if I place her near my work space.
(ID #59208) Posted on 2007/10/12 00:31
Nice but to ecchi for me >.< ...would get akward rections from people lol. I'll have to pass.

@destiny11: I think it's a Rebel XT (350D) with EF-S 60mm 2.8 lens attached. One of the best for portraits and product close up (it's a macro lens) so what's next Danny, 40D?? wink wink
(ID #59212) Posted on 2007/10/12 01:48
allready got her.. looks great.. was wondering about the circles too.. not to distracting though.. lots worse out there.. theres a few things i would clean up but in all if you like Sonsaku.. you'll love this one..
(ID #59213) Posted on 2007/10/12 02:03
Danny, you may have answered this before, but did you take these pictures in the street or perch the figure on a brick?

Already have ^^; Lovely colors on your outdoor pictures, as usual :D piv 11163.jpg is fantastic hahaha!

Lovely outdoor pictures, I like the third from the top. Makes her look all dark and scary like shes going to power up rather than the vulnerable figure she is.

Hi, Danny, have these photos undergone any photoshopping?

Nice eyes, though Hakufu is not my kind of chara...

Beautiful, yes, but I prefer the wet hair version, also for Griffon.

destiny111, No shopping done - only a batch PHP script which renames, resizes, rotates, watermarks and FTP to the server. The script also prepares the HTML for me too ^^; Aya, Saliva from your mouth and blood from yer nose must be a pretty sight. Soshi, Nice! Dunatis, Thats polystyrene too - on my balcony. Catz, Will stick with the Kiss for now. Crazy Anime Tuga, Mee too!

i want to buy one but...i think my mom will kill me~~~
(ID #66350) Posted on 2007/12/08 08:07
good figure, a very moe pose...... but i think the price is still to high. Maybe coz it has a feature to strip, khukhukhu...........
(ID #68885) Posted on 2008/01/07 03:52
May god bless the creators of this figure, all female figures should have the strip option
