Pre-orders are open for this 1/5 scale Uesugi Kenshin by Freeing. Due out next April and retails for 11,800 yen. More pics at GSC.

I'll probably display her casted off with a tissue bra that you saw Fauna in the other day.

    Looks like she comes with a lovely dress +armor thing. Kind of reminds me of Saber. Could saber be why she is naked, didn't like someone trying to copy her idea and make it their own ?

    Well I remember Moeyo.com always used Wendy Garret's tank top to cover up the bare eyes since it's a stretchable material. Maybe use Shana & Kazumi's bloomers when they come out ^^;

    I don't display figures cast of because I'm a woman. I buy figures when they have cute hair and face and awesome clothes. I buy my anime figures to display like some women buy Royal Doulton ornaments. Something fun to collect and decorate my environment with.

    i have around 5 cast-off figures, but i dont display them naked cause i don't want to loose their dresses anywhere by mistake. also most of them look cute when clothed, like fauna for example. Uesugi Kenshin is very lovely. maybe i should buy her.

    Noooooo. :( I've been looking forward to this since I saw a concept - love her pose, expression, everything. Only I failed to note that she's 1/5. Price aside, she'd dwarf my other figures. I was hoping to place her on the side of a 1/8 centerpiece in order to balance the display a bit...*sigh*

    Okay, time to rethink just how much I want this figure.

      Ah, about cast-off. Don't have a cast-off figure yet so that's a moot point, but even if I had Kenshin I'd keep her clothes on. It's her clothes and armour tha I'm in love with anyway. Love how it spreads around her.

    Because I have a daughter and her friends often come over, I don't display any of my figure w/ their eyes / etc. exposed.

    I don't know that I would, anyway though. I guess it's because I don't buy them because they're nekkid, so they look good fully clothed.
