Due out this month is this 1/8 scale figure of Wendy from GunSword. Retails for 6,500 yen by Max Factory. Wendy has the POLO system installed and this time they've made her garment stretchy so that you can tease her by pulling on it, taking it off and earing it on your lil bro or something.

wow, thats cool, is the stretchy shirt some new sort of material?
are her "eyes" made of soft material as well?
I'm thinking of the mini version of Candy Girls ^^
Yeah, I would be interested to see what here eyes are made of...
Wendy has no eyes to speak of. But she's gorgeous, and sexy. Which is remarkable because I do *not* like lolis. Well every rule has an exception after all.
Requiem, I agree with you but I can't stop wondering what a full-grown up (adult) version of Wendy would have given. The same thought for Kyon's sister. I may not fancy lolis, but the mental process I described above happens from time to time. ^^;
I have a Rei Ayaname figure with squishy 'eyes'. It makes the chest area really hard to dust and the figure itself isn't that well made. It was more of a novelty purchase I guess.
Nooo Kyon's sister is perfectly cute as is, I don't want her to age a single year! Although you are right that we could be missing on something, but the presence of future Mikuru renders that moot anyway.
Requiem, that's right. However I didn't wait for grown-up Mikuru to have that kind of logic (Maybe goes back to DBZ and Trunks of the future or Back to the future?).
thats a rather cute figure. Never watch the anime b4 though cause it seems boring
The show was fairly generic and boring, nothing special. And I just couldn't stop laughing at one the characters who's name was "Carmen 99" she actually has a number in her name.
I beg to differ, IMO I think GUNXSWORD was a great anime! Also, Carmen 99 is her nickname and the 99 is actually her breast size LOL, her real name is Carol Mendosa... Hey Choo, I recommend you to watch the anime LOL! Some parts may be a little repetitive, but I guess it depends on taste... @ mbern45, I guess you must have watched quite alot of anime, are there any anime similar to GUNXSWORD? I would like to know and could you recommend some to me? Sorry if I sound rude...
GunXSword is action 100%. I mean, yes, GunXSword didn't go out of it's way to shine, and in no way was it one of the greatest animes. But at the same time, if I saw it on TV, I'd watch it again only because it wasn't as bad as some deem it to be.
Carmen 99 is also Inoue Kikuko's sexiest interpretation. Kazami Mizuho be damned. I could get off at her reading the TV Guide.
Lostandfound, do you some series that are similar because they have giant robots or that just have the same feel as gunxsword? Cowboy bebop comes to mind, el cazador also has a western feel to it, trigun (I didn't like it too much myself). Burst Angel also comes to mind. In fact I found the robot in Burst Angel and gunxsword to be very similar looking. Maybe some other people could suggest some anime. These are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head.
Cute, might buy it, but not as a first priority
o~ is Wendy~ But i prefer the robot in Gun X Sword
The robot? You mean Dann? I want that Wendy! LOL, you can put the clothes on other figures! Cool!
=o they made the POLO strechy hmmm..... can they also make the panty strechy?! ^^
gun X sword was a awsome anime. i liked the mechas as well.
Hahaha! GunXSword. Wow, brings back memories of when I watched myself on G4. Screw wendy though, Priscilla's due for a new figure as well. Priscilla = awesome!
Hope Max factory can integrate this technology into some of their figure lines soon in the future. It would be soo cool then. Think about interactivity man ^^
haa finished this series and still sound like crap in dub. Every thing sound like crap in dub.
I disagree with dubs sucking entirely. Watch Hellsing Ultimate. English Dub = superb, whereas the Original Japanese dubbing is shit and utterly loses the hilarity in characters like Jan Valentine. In long, there are good english dubs, there are bad ones. Look to examples like Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo, GitS, Hellsing Ultimate and other shows to get a good idea of good dubbing.
I watched Gun x Sword... it was fun. Nothing special about it, but I liked it anyways. Interesting figure though. Stretchy shirt is very moe... ^^
Now that's an idea just for me XP
wow! so this is the POLO system that GoodSmile and Max Factory are working on ^__^ i'm curious on what material did they used for the stretchable plastic ^^
Lol... "Wendy" is my real name too, so I feel kinda weird when watching the anime ^^;
