This 1/8 scale figure of Uesugi Kenshin from the Sengoku Rance series will be out next April and retail for 7,140 yen. Wearing too much for my liking ^^; (c)ALICESOFT
Interesting how they depict Uesugi Kenshin as a girl.. I guess it's just like saber :-)
Apparently there are a few Japanese scholars who believe Kenshin is female. I don't know the details of why however. This particular character is from a very interesting looking eroge. I'm not having as much luck as I'd like in finding a fan-translation of it.
Checking Wikipedia... The entry says,"Some historians including Tomeo Yagiri (ja:八切止夫) believe that Kenshin was a woman". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uesugi_Kenshin A cute woman samurai... that's so turning me on..
I Like the katana.. Not mentioning the girl also. Well everybody never met him/her directly to know about him/her precisely.
A cute samurai girl.... Shouldn't mess around with her, not when she has such a sharp sword....
cute pretty girl, but with my limited budget,i won't going to get it -_- and btw, kotobukiya's works aren't as good as the past's huh -_-;;; alter FTW, GSC & MF are the 2nd
and it's getting worse.... the quality control.... i got a dirt or some extra paint for my rei ..... if only it was MF , i definitely fallen
agreed, the quality is really dipping these days. although the sculpt in that picture looks amazing, the actual thing will be lucky to look 80% as good.
An extraordinary figure. A must have, even if she seems to wear a lot. ;)
nice but i must think again because i have another figure for order
That sculpt is absolutely amazing. Want levels are unbelievably high. Too bad the paint just can't match that quality, though. Too shiny. Want levels mostly normal.
When the heck did the Dragon of Echigo turn into a woman?!
Is really beautiful. I`m not sure, but Rance series is about historical japanese persons turned in pretty girls, yeah? I have a garage kit for Yamamoto Isoroku(he was a general for Second World War, he isn`t?), but I wish to see Nobunaga Oda...
So this is from the 'Sengoku' version of Ikkitousen then? I'll like to see Takeda Shingen ;) if He/She is in it.
She's a cool figure indeed. Very expensive to import I bet.... I find the ones wearing less cost less.... least thats what I've found in my case. Less plastic...etc... lol
Im sure it has nothing to do with the mass production of the ones that are more .. naked.. selling better. Sigh, oktau fans (guys) are pretty predictable.
Every depiction I have ever seen Kenshin looks like a girl anyway. Even when its supposed to be a guy. Maybe he was just a ... feminine guy? Like an ancient metro.
LOL @ ancient metro comment
Loving the katana and the costume...
omg this fig is amazing! I just wish I knew who she was +_+;
(>3
GET. Seriously loving the sword, costume and that look...that look is just adorable! ^^
