Samurai Shodown
Another production sample appeared on the desk from lord knows where. There must be a mini Stargate hidden around the desk somewhere ^^;
Suzuhime is a 1/8 scale figure being released by Kotobukiya this November.
Retail price is 8,800 yen and you can see more details at Kotobukiya.
Suzuhime comes with a huge sword to slice n dice her opponents in Samurai Shodown (called Samurai Spirits in JP). She also comes with a flute to poke the eyes of her opponents - forgot to stick it in the photos ^^;
Do note that this is a production sample - the final version to hit the shelves will be different - a few paint tweaks here n there are expected.
The cloth draped over her v-zone is removable revealing white pantsu but the kimono is not - but could be for the final version. Pupils are painted nicely too ^^;
Perfect for a car dashboard.
And here are the load of goodies that come with Suzuhime - a dakimakura cover, shower poster, fan and a pencil board. We need more figures to come with such goodies like this!
If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.

Yah, saving her for later too. Guess she will be sold out by then as usual though.

very very nice, but slightly too ecchi for me. Hard to display it in a prominent place and will probably hide it at the back if I get it, which sort of defeats the purpose

Yeah, a bit too ecchi for my tastes. However, I'm surprised it comes with all those extra goodies. A daki cover as well? Tempting...

Don't get your hopes up...those are probably just the "Danny Choo Special" ^^

Very nice figure that comes with goodies. How can you pass it up? I wish every figure came with a Daki cover.
Student.
Wow! Nice figure, unfortunately, i don't have money, but i'll start saving money to buy it! I really want this figure! I hope the final version will be better than this one. I think they should make the kimono removable for the final version.

Body.. @.@ will get!! Σd(>口<)
Student
Wow the figure comes with all of that extra stuff too? If it's priced the same as other figures of similar scale, that's a steal considering dakimakuras will run you like, $100 USD or something? If the jack up the price of the figure appropriately then... never mind lol.
Student
Oh wait I'm blind, retail price is listed. Seems a bit expensive for the figure itself but considering it comes with other stuff too I guess it's not that bad.

Oh I remember this figure from a while back, read it was an exclusive or something along those lines.
None
It's on my want list, but it was my understanding that this figure is a Gemaga magazine exclusive. I'm getting ticked off with all the exclusives being offered by figure makers, especially Kotobukiya.

This...Feel free to pass that along to Koto Danny...Exclusives aren't much fun for us western figure collectors. >_<

does it come with a base? i have always prefer sitting/squatting/kneeling/laying down figures than standing ones. ^^ but price is pricey, probably because of all the additional goodies. tempted but i'll pass.

Solid figure and the details on the kimono are amazing. Thou the price versus the size is a bit hard to chew on.

Nice! I wouldn't want to destroy her by leaving her on the car dashboard though. Who would ever do that to a figure of any kind?

Nice garments she got, but the proportion doesnt look quite right. I wonder when Kotobukiya will make a figure with removable top
Student and full-time otaku
Hmmm, Suzu....Can't wait to get an in-stock mail from Koto. If I understood everything correctly when I pre-ordered from them, I'm supposed to confirm everything when it's in stock. Then they'll send it to my Tenso address. Hope it all goes well because I just really want to get her ^^;

I hope the extra paint job is going towards her face, she just doesn't look right and her nose completely disappears in most of the shots. The way the clothing drapes looks awesome though :3
