GSC 1:7 Scale Saber Lily

More "do not photo" stuff from C75 - this time round its the 1/7 scale Saber Lily. The "Kanshu Chu" [監修中] means that the sculpt is currently being submitted for approval. GSC cant proactively promote a design that does not have sign off so they must have the "no photos allowed" sign.
They have actually had some previous sculpts for other characters (cant say which ones or I risk cutting off my supply of SAFS) turned down for reasons like "well she does not do that in the anime" and also had requests like "make it so that the skirt cant cast off" which is why some figures that are made to be casted off arrive at consumers with the skirt glued down.
Original text from white below.
Posting again for two times in a row...hehe..forgive my eagerness..
Here we have Good Smile Company's gorgeous 1/7 Saber Lily taken at Comiket 75.Figure is set to release in June 2009.Price is still unkown but it most likely be a wallet bleeder again judging from the looks of figure itself.
2009 will be quite the year for us figure collectors. Hope we survive in one piece. ^^;

Student, Motivated Future Hikikomori
LOL...Having in mind that I will stary 2009 at 0 I don`t know how I will survive >.<
But this figure I think is damn worth it I expect it to be around the price of YokoGiftVer, but having in mind the insanely low price on the BURST ver of Queen`s Bleade, I don`t know what to think. I reccon that preorders will be up in the middle of february somewhere...
So that makes ... 2 x nendoroid, 1 x Saber... [Optional, Not Yet decided - FRAULEIN Yuki and Mikuru...] >_<

I think he meant in terms of the pose. Obvious it's not really floating. But the pose is a drawing the sword and throwing the scabbard (sheath) away

About the figure itself, it looks awesome! But I'm not sure that I'll be getting it. Seriously though, I love Saber. She's my third favourite character in the FSN series so I might shell out the cash for her.

is it just me?
this is far too huge for 1/7..?
Me.
http://eltworld.wordpress.com/
Needless to say, the price will also definitely be "huge". Anyway, looks about the size of Alter's Hayate who is also 1/7 scale. Probably the armour and pose makes her look bigger.

Oho! This Saber looking good! Highly possible SAF... damn and I was hoping I could stick to the planned purchase list for the coming new year...!
Who makes the decisions on these "Kansu-Chu" figures by the way? Is it the boss of the figure company? A sculpt-approval committee? The character owner (in this case, Type-Moon?) or do they get general opinions from fans at toy shows? Must be tough making decisions on which sculpt to approve, and at the same time there must be a basis why a skirt can't be cast off... that's always an added value feature I would think?

2009 is a year where I cut back on figures and hold my impulses on many things where I don't necessary need.
But if I had to choose one Saber for 09, then it will be her. ^__^

Hope to have enough money for her release! Definitely a want.

Very nice. I should have got a shot of this but it was too crowded.
As much as I love this figure, I probably won't buy it for the same reason as the Hayate figure. Running out of space. And SADs are not helping lol.
Student
http://gsquaredworks.blogspot.com/
love this figure! it has a dynamic pose, but the colors of Saber Lily is also very elegant. will definitely be on the look-out for this release
Since i can't get the figma Saber Lily, then i will definitely buy this one.
Student
This is a for sure buy for me, if it's not an exclusive.

Not getting this one..looks too big and unmoveable,prefer the figma version(no offense to u guys meant).

Now this is something that is worth getting in the new year.. As for now, I need to clear my room just to fit in more future figurines.. ^^;;
Student
Do want! This will probably be easier to get a hold of than the figma if they don't release it separately from the game... Except I bet they'll end up being around the same price regardless :/

This looks amazing, if by that time I have remaining funds to get her I will pre-order.
Nice figure

Oh wow! I can't wait to see the painted version of it! It's hard to tell without a nice, close-up shot, but that might the closest figure I've seen to capture Saber's face properly. The pose is simply stunning! =^_^=
Collage student
Yes I so want this (skipped out on previous Saber Lily, which is ok by me cause I LOVE pcv)
Huh, I just unintentionally rhymed there, but ya, I am so getting this figure :D

having a "do not photo" sign next to a [監修中] figure at a major event show is as good as putting a "there's no money in here, please do not take" sign next to a piggy bank.

Her expression seems a little plain though. Perhaps once it's painted, I can get a better look at it though... o.o

Sigh GSC, just when I thought the Gift one would be my last Saber ;w; 2009 just started and I already know what I'm getting in June, orz
Graphic Designer
Saber~~ Saber Lily~~
If it is 1/6 it would even better, Saber does not get enough large figure. (Dollfie Saber are too expensive, but it would be a great Saber to add to my Saber collection)
When can I order it?
I'll properly get it if it does cost more then a limb~
Student, Bioresearch Assistant, WAVE VP Communications
http://gndynames.wordpress.com
Most agreed. However, Saber does have quite a few fine 1/6 figures. The GSC holiday Saber is absolutely gorgeous.
