Nice chest!
Those character arts looks gorgeous!! Too bad I need to wait for the re-release date...sold out everywhere!! ( > _ < )
Weapons of mass destruction? more like mass distraction. I really don't care about size only the shape, taste and texture matter. It also has to be disease free and ripe (aged enough), you don't want to touch forbidden fruit.
So-far it looks like the masses are leaning towards the modest melon Danny. "Anything more than a handful is a waste."
wow Char Rhouseman looks cute and strong and beutiful at the same time
Ah~ Thinner, I haven't had time to clean the clothes yet, but I do have concerns about the paint rubbing~ I'll give that a try soon.
Arousing Char... Say, Fauna and Airi look great like this. ^^ This and I want to say that I prefer bigger eyes when it comes to 2D characters (size 5 to 6 on the bust chart... remember?) while 5 is aplenty on 3D ones. ^^ Torpedo? You think so? Char seems fine to me. I've seen worse, trust me. This said, I tend to focus more on the shape than the side when I hear about this term... What can be seen in doujinshi such as Blue Eyes (which turn me off greatly). Yup, big eyes, but realistic ones for my pleasure. ^^
*size Too confusing? Too much information? Feel free to give me feedback. It's always appreciated. ^^
first, i like orange sized eyes. not too big not too small. ('~')
second, i love those interchangeable head shots. ^^;
third, the 2 page poster of char looks very nice. danny can you scan in it for us or anyone know where to get high resolution version of it? whichever kind soul who helps will get a cookie from me. ^^;
*Coughs* It looks like Char has bigger bosoms in the illustration book, no? Anyway, I prefer the normal in the middle eyes, erm oranges? And LOL at grape seeds...
Luv the flowing hair and details. Really gives a sense of motion. If only more figures included extra goods. I wish someone would come out with a Yoko with a fierce stare. Fauna looks surprising natural on this body. I likey. Airi in my opinion looks better with her own (uncovered) melons. Believe I choose 4-6 on the eyes scale. Char's are A-ok.
This is a real nice one... Anyway Danny, is there a particular thinner to get for removing paint or will any kind of thinner do (like say nail thinner)? Thanks in advance (and sorry if this is a noob-ish question).
Char is wonderful, and your pictures show it well! Funny to see other faces with that gorgeous body, but those blond hair are the best to go with those clothes and green undies imo ^^
Orange!
very very nice fig ^^b the detail is just amazing. i have her pre-ordered. can't wait for her arrival. ya know, she reminds me of "charlotte" from Samurai Shodown...
silent1134, I recommend the kind of thinner used for paint. Not sure about other types of thinner.
Figure looks nice, plus the head swapping is neat as well ^^;
Amazing ! Char looks great on these Photos. I hope i get the chance to order her quickly. The other 4 Figures, i could pre-order them, but these Figure ... heavy to become.
Great figure. The detail really is amazing. And on top of that, you get a load of goodies; does that happen often or is it just in special occasions?
Btw Danny, it's not a scar, just a minor cut... ^^
D Blade, Thanks for the correction ^^; Evil King, Depends on figure release dates and which company I've met with recently etc etc.
Man she looks gorgeous! I really like the optional damaged clothing! I cant wait to get my hands on her!
OMG, i wan that figure. =S its so nice.
Oranges for Orange-kun.
I just tokk mine off her boxe, and she's indeed a masterpiece, one of the best figure among my collection. Can't wait to have Ryze too...
The breast size on a figure depends a lot on how the figure is sculpted so I like both normal and big but not as big as to make abnormal, for example Mirei-san breasts are big and I like them because they seem natural and some figures from queen's blade seem to big and unnatural. I would really like to get Char but my thin wallet doesn't allow it :( perhaps if she's relaunched I'll get her
OMG THATS FREAKY..... I think Airi's head goes alright. But Fauna's looks a bit weirder lol
Nosebleeds! Her eyes goods fine on her though, maybe just a little bit too big.
Methinks I should eat more fruit.
Hi folks, gsc made with this third shuraki figure a very good job near perfect but "only" near, because one thing I don't like it so much ,is the painting of her eyes(real one's)this is not made of real colours they take stickers for it. Max Factory do this often with her figures and it looks like a little bit cheap.
Ahh, I received this lovely lass the other day. GSC has continued with their great quality on their figures however I'm just a bit miffed that she now has a dark line across her torso now as the paint rubbed off waaaay to easily. I didn't have any idea how to deal with it but you've already answered that one for me, thanks ^^
DO WANT! DO WANT! DO WANT! *heart heart heart* *nosebleeds* Char Rhouseman is simply heavenly and gorgeous and not to mention so MO~E! *heart* is this a newer version of Char Rhouseman? 'coz i've checked out one of my fave online retailers and it said that it was discontinued ^^;;;;
Danny, considering the "suggestiveness" of your figure collection, I've simply got to ask what prevents your wife from kicking your derriere nine ways to Sunday? Your site has led to my purchase (against my will, of course) of several "attractive" figures and my wife hasn't spoken to me for a month. Do tell; share your secret!
Dammit!!! My Char arrived last week but I was at work when it arrived so I had to ask royal mail (UK mail service) for a redelivery, which didn't happen!! I now have to go to the depot to pick it up, assuming they haven't lost my Char. For the love of all that is holy, I hope they haven't lost my Char... Mishiro is back up for order as well now (Shuraki box #1)!
torpedo eyes indeed~ lol im so tempted to get this T_T but i have a lot queued up already ; ; as for the size of eyes.. i'd go for dfc's (delicious flat chest) to watermelon size.. i really dont care haha
Missed the pre-order for this. T_T I hope they do a rerun of this figure coz I'm sure to get one. That is one of the best looking figures I've ever seen. ^^
God.. she is gorgeous! The pictures in the book are also quite delicious. Awesome fig Danny
She surely has some nice parts, but overall I don't like her that much ... still believe figure#2 Ryu Meifeng is superior to all shurakis ^_^
Nice details... even though I don't really know the character...
Geez Danny, it's a real shame you didn't have fun with this post. ^o^ Your photos do this figure a real justice, nice work Danny. I have an urge to do some figure photography now. Lots of great wallpaper material here too. You really twisted my arm so much I'm just going to have to buy this figure now. Heck, I'm ordering as I type this post. You are such a bad influence on us all. ^^; Didn't know this figure was coming with so many goodies. Have this feeling you will be doing a lot more procrastination in the days to come. ^o^ Thanks for such a great old school Dannychoo.com post.
I love this one, but can't find in anyplace , and neither of the others form same collection!! Garrrrrh!!
Want !! But I think her eyes look just right from front view. Looks a bit larger from side cause she leaning back and all.
@sts, It's a hard choice for me. Ryu Meifeng is the first one I had ordered, but I do like this one a lot. @thefrikking, You will need to some searching for this one. I ordered mine from Amazon. However I will not get to see it until later this year when I go to Japan. Did you check out some of the shops here in the states?
Fauna and Airi intermissions made me laugh so much here that my stomach is hurting now. And about her torpedoes...it's funny she looks very normal in the illustration with the white dress.
Looks really cool.
very nice review Danny, i tried with no luck at pre-ordering Char, she sold out like hotcakes. looks like i'll have to wait a few months before i can get my grubby hands on her. as for eyes, i prefer oranges, melons and anything above will just sag when they get older...and its not a pretty sight -__-;
Melons to oranges, as long as their not pears or bananas, thats what counts. But onto the matter 'at hand' (I wish, lol), NEED that fig, but have no money, am soon to be starving college student, for now am just new-figureless college student (blew the last of my extra monies on my Arisa figure, and I have to save to go to Anime North convention). @ D_Blade: no, we need more eye related essays, maybe you should write a book? "The Blind Eyes: A History Of Oppai"
Holy...oranges? What are you guys talking about!?!?! LOL Danny
Grapefruit are nice...
I've got this, very nice indeed. It is true her main garment is tough to remove and I think I cracked the inside of it trying to remove it (you can see a distinctive red line). But it looks fine on the outside. Overall well worth it.
Try Anime Xing in the link list, I preordered one that's supposedly coming into stock at the end of Feb.
Another figure I'm considering getting once my Queens blade airi arrives and maybe if i decide to buy fauna first :D
Why is AnimeXing selling it for like 80 USD when all the other stores were selling around 60-65? I guess I'll wait to see if I can get a better price when they restock it.
mavadotar, seems like a great idea... However I feel I'd be too lazy for that. ^^
Great pics as usual ! I've received mine too, and the quality is top notch !
Now I'm really banging my head against the wall for canceling my pre-order at HLJ. Damn, she looks so great! The price is high for making such a stupid mistake. =_=
My sides are splitting xD Fauna looks so...... not there xDDDDDDDDDDDDD ...cant stop laughing xD
LOL!! Fauna looks soo happy XDDD & really to kill!
I just get it on last week, nice figure. Fauna and Airi look good as well, nice idea to swap the head...
Will the paint rub off on the normal set of clothes also? Or is it just the battle damaged set?
More like "weapons of mass distraction."
nice! Can't wait for mine to arrive - I love the inclusion of the extras. Thanks DC.
Wow, nice figurine.. I haven't actually seen the real one yet, but way to go with the head switching =]... Fauna's facial expression and the body's pose looks a lil' incompatib
