Black Rock Shooter and the alternate version. I prefer the alternate with just the sword.

Her eyes are tiny, but she's very pretty. I still prefer the other version though.

For just a second, I thought you were talking about eyes as in what you see through.. must be b/c Danny hasn't been using the word frequently lately. ^_^;

I second that. The original version looks so bad-ass with the giant gun and shiny leather.
The sword just doesn't quite cut it (no pun intended).

I agree the leather makes her look bad ass, but I do like the sword though.

the sword justs st it off.

With your Shana avatar, I wouldn't doubt that. :)
The sword idea is pretty cool. If it was bigger and more intimidating, I would like it more, I think. I think this one looks a little too simplistic. That's all fine and dandy, but that sort of simplicity demands an elegance and sophistication that someone like Ignis can pull off well, but not so much for this Miku variant.

They look so realistic...

They look more like recently stitched up wounds than scars to me ^^

Those stitches are a turn off for me. Don't really like them.

Very nice! I'm getting the other version, but I really like this too! Might have to get both...

getting the first one, tempted to get this as well.

Looks too much like the first version to me so I'll pass. I need my money for all this other stuff coming out!

If this is cheaper than the other BRS then I'll get this one... I had to cancel the other one >_<
Student
http://tsubasa126.wordpress.com/
Same here!! I had to cancel the BRS too!! (>_<) Now I'm trying to get either this one or the other one I canceled.
http://darkdam.deviantart.com/
I was thinking the same thing, but if both are around the same price I would get the other one, not a fan of scars and the first one's got them bended in pretty well.

Cancelling figure orders is the most painful thing I've done in my otaku life ;_; (well that and many other things are painful when there's no moola XD)

I know... this one was especially painful because I really like the song to the point of it playing over and over in my head!
Nekophilia
I'll see about the price. I don't really like the accurate depiction of her - including the scar on the hips. Some illustrations leave that out. Prefer the latter.
初音ミク命
This one looks nice, but I still prefer the other one a bit better. Not to mention I've had it on pre-order since March I think I'll be sticking with it.
I'm so disappointed with them choosing to make another BRS in the SAME POSE.
I thought it was going to be a figure of (Dead Master) DM from huke's other art...
I was going to buy that but now it's off my list.
orz.
Student and full-time otaku
Damn without her jacket she looks even hotter! Is this a new strategy to force us to buy all figures? I already preordered the other version months ago, and I don't feel like switching at the last second. But damn she is tempting....
High School Student
http://scorchnroses.wordpress.com
Pre-ordered the other version. I guess I should stick to that. Unless I have money, I will get this version ><
Really nice figure to. Both Black Rock Shooter looks great!
Student, Uncle & hopfully a good husband..
She's looks awesome...but why are the eyes?...but still gorgeous though...

Prefer the original version. Still unsure if I'll end up getting her though. So much stuff coming out its unreal.
WOOO!! Getto!!
Definitely better than the rather disappointing K-On figures! Woo!!

Well...this is certainly better-looking than I expected. She looks surprisingly good without her jacket - that's a really small bikini, by the way. Will look at the price, I guess. Skipped on the other BRS, and I don't think I can hold back and miss both of them now when they're both so good-looking.
Need some black-coated figures to balance out my mass of white ones anyway. ^^;
The previous one's better though, methinks - the gunmetal is impressive, the coat looks nice on as well, and the parents would be less skeptical. >_>

Nyaa~ BRS is on my wish list, but... but... I can't afford her!!! (>_<)
student- university servant
like pacthesis
the thing that jumps out at me is the mini cup size!
but if i picture BRS with a typical figure bust- she might look weird?
or possibly the greatest trap of the year? jkjk
Graphic Designer
http://www.valiantho.com/
I am definitely getting the previous one, but I am also starting to like this version the more I look at her >_<
初音ミク命
I'm getting the previous one since I like it a bit better, although I do like that the base on this one isn't as big.
Definite get! Waving jacket and black katana are very stylish. Still no information on her release date, form, price?

Both versions are equally great IMO.

I like the one with the gun better(she looks too cool in that jacket!), but if this one costs less I will get it instead.

First one better. The sword version a little sexier but less oomph compared to the first... I like it when there's more 'oomph'...

Pre-ordered the previous one.
After seeing this pic elsewhere, I just thought you could swap around weapons/jacket.
But alas..
WHY GSC, WHY!?

The blue fire coming from her eye is stunning. Really well crafted in my eyes.

Yeah her eyes do look really well done. I like her more without the jacket though

Hope they're making a Figma for this. XD

Has she been release yet???

oOOOOOooo love the GSC commercial. Very funky.

I really love the alternate version with the sword. She really looks great! I think I am going to get her too. Please bear with me wallet >_<

For some obscure reason, I like her scar ^^
I ordered the first one, not sure if I'll still get the alternate but she's just as pretty.

GSC commercials are looking great.
Both figures look awesome, and since I've already pre-ordered the first one ages ago I'll just stick with that one.
If they end up selling the second one for real cheap, I might have to consider getting it as well... but the thing is, the only real difference between the 2 is, the jacket is off, plus the position of her arm holding the jacket. No bulky cannon and the base is much simpler.
But with less plastic used, and less scuplting of new parts required, it should be a lot cheaper.
Just like the Hatsune Miku 1/8 TVCM version, only difference is that her eyes are closed and the base is different. The price is SO MUCH CHEAPER. only 4500yen

oh... does anyone know of the release date for the first version of BRS?
"August Release" they said.. but does that mean end of August or any time during August?
High School Student
Other version is cool too!!
However I like sword more than that =v=
Maybe the body curve has caught my eyes.

It's only "Do WANT!" more.
But I like the one with the cannon

http://foxkey.blog126.fc2.com/
I'd like a mix of the two, alternate ver. with the sword but with the coar from the orignal. Ahh, BRS is such a marvellous figure.
http://vivato.blogspot.com/
i still prefer the one with the cannon.
girl with sword, you can see them a lot in the market but
girl with big cannon that's rare.

My thawts EXACTLY.
I've pre-ordered the one with the cannon and nothing's gonna change me mind.
Soon....

I think she looks much better with the jacket on, without the jacket it's kind of like looking at Michael Jackson in a bikini...

Still a good figure but I'll only be getting the original version ^^

I like the blue flame at her eyes, the effect and details are so good!

I like the regular version better. Too much skin on BRS doesn't look right IMO.

Do want, although the first was a little better.

I've never really noticed how flat she was. I can't really tell which one I like better because there aren't enough pics.

Me likes the first version because of the flowing coat and the huge weapon, but alternate version is delicious indeed!

University Student, Hikkikomori? (or not), Go/Weiqi/Baduk player
Arghh~~ Must get this and the previous version too <3
???Confused???
Both of them are really nice...be a waste not to get them both...
Student (University)
MINE! Chicks with swords are always sexier than chicks with guns. Hands DOWN! Plus, I didn't even notice the other one, until I found out that they were sold out everywhere (Who knows? GSC might release a few more later down the road) but for me, the chick with the sword is the one I'm getting.
Plus, I like the smaller base ~ Implies less cost, might be slightly cheaper than the original, considering they're using less material.
Student
So wanted to get the original BRS when it was up for preorder... missed the chance though. Hope to get it off ebay or something. The alternate version too of course :) There goes another month of allowance...
Student (University)
You could always try to get a job. :D But then again, you're a student just like me. Studies always comes first.
Student
Yea. But yay to 2 months of holidays. Going to save up for the Toy Con thats coming over to Singapore :) Going to just spend all I earn hehehe.

I think this image would be way better with bigger breast.......dontcha think???

Who would've thought Miku can look so tempting too, in a different way. XD
I would have get it if it doesn't shoot my wallet first before the Black Rock. lol

I still perfer the first one...somehow the new ver looks too thin for me

The whole theme veely nice but the figure itself is not my taste.
In two words: Too loli!!

She is very cute!!!!
I also love the good smile commercial!

Really like teh figure,face and eyes on the BRS...both versions XD

I love the Black Rock Shooter figure! I want her so bad! The blue flame in her eye is my favorite aspect of this figure (also the fact that she is very shiny looking).
I like the original version better just because it shows off her jacket a little more.
国際関係 college student
BRS always impressed me with her coolness....and yeah, the figure is really cool
those stitches are kinda scary but adds up to her coolness
last word, DO WANT!!

While I'll probably get both, I definitely prefer the cannon version. I think this new sword version is very nice albeit not all that original.
http://kittywhisperwind.wordpress.com/
A giant cannon is waaaaay more original than a sword, but imo the cannon is a bit too humongous. I prefer BRS with the sword. Not sure if I like her with the coat on or off better, she looks great either way :3
Student, Artist
http://sleepless-piro.deviantart.com
Already have the first one on pre-order, will need to do the same with this one. And a good choice for her hanging onto to her coat to show off her petite body.
